THE KING OF THE UNIVERSE 219 They Are My Friends

"Bandits?" , Arjun thought when he looked at these 30 people.

The three people whom Arjun enquired about the place he was in, looked at Arjun and thought that Arjun was one of them. It was way too coincidental that these bandits came out of nowhere immediately after Arjun was enquiring them. They looked at the calm face of Arjun and their suspicion strengthened even further.

The leader of the bandit group said, " Just put all your belongings down. If you cooperate with us, we won't harm you. Or else don't blame me for being rude."

One of those three people said, " Just don't harm us. We will give you everything that we own."

After one minute all three of them really put all their belongings down. The leader of the bandit group was really disappointed. Those three people didn't have anything worthy with them.

At that time, the leader of the bandit group looked a thing that was being carried on a broken vehicle. The broken vehicle was not even worth mentioning. It didn't even catch the eye of the leader of the bandit group. But the thing that caught his eyes was the things that broken vehicle was carrying.

The thing that broken vehicle carrying couldn't be seen as it was packed with a cloth. The cloth was soft and silky. It was sealed using the sealing technique. Arjun looked at the seal and shook his head. Because he didn't know what is that sealing technique as Arjun is yet to enter the building of sealing in the city of light.

"It looks like I have to upgrade my knowledge. I learned only smitting, pill concoctation, Runic Language and Formation so far. If I don't upgrade my knowledge, then I am doomed in the G.o.d Realm." , Arjun thought to himself.

The leader of the bandit group walked towards the thing which was sealed with a white cloth.

The three people s.h.i.+vered in fear. One of them said, " Please wait sir! That thing is not our personal belongings. We work in the Galaxy Pavilion as a delivery boys. We are supposed to deliver that thing to it's buyer. We request you. Please don't touch it."

But the leader of the bandit group didn't bother to heed anything. He simply walked towards the seal on that thing and started to inspect it. After around 20 seconds he gave a tight punch on that seal's core point. Immediately the seal broke and that equisite white cloth lost it's grip.

Arjun looked at the whole process that the leader of the bandit group did and was surprised.

"He know the concept of sealing?" , Arjun thought to himself.

The three delivery boys almost fainted to see this. For a bandit to expertise in the art of sealing, they knew that his background is not simple.

The leader of the bandit group removed the white cloth and was stunned with what he saw. The thing that was sealed using the sealing techniques was actually a painting of a beautiful woman. The white dress on that woman was even more charming.

The leader of the bandit group turned towards the three delivery boys and asked furiously, " What the h.e.l.l is that?"

One of the delivery boy replied, " It is the painting of the princess Shayana. A rich person personally ordered this painting from the Galaxy Pavilion. We are the delivery boys from the Galaxy Pavilion who were responsible to deliver this painting."

The leader of the Bandit group went furious. He took out a sword and started to cut the painting in different pieces. Even though the three delivery boys kept on pleading the leader of the bandit group, but the leader didn't listen to a thing and completely destroyed the painting.

One of the three delivery boys shouted in anger, " You crazy bas*ard! Didn't we already give our personal belongings obidiently? Why would you go and destroy the thing that would affect our future?"

The leader of the bandit group smiled sinisterly and said, " Oh!? It looks like you don't know the situation you are in right now."

The leader of the bandit group walked towards the delivery boy who shouted and said, " Do you know what happens to the people who disobey or disrespect me? There is only one outcome. DEATH!!!"

The leader of the bandit group lifts his sword in the air and prepared to cut the delivery boy who yelled at him. The delivery boy s.h.i.+vered and closed his eyes tightly in fear. He prepared himself strongly and accepted his fate.

But even after 5 seconds, the sword didn't cut him. As he opened his eyes slowly to know the reason, he looked at the stunned face of The leader of the bandit group. The delivery boy then looked at the sword. The sword's momentum was stopped by an hand. As the delivery boy looked at the person who saved his life, he was stunned to see Arjun.

The three delivery boys thought that Arjun was one of them. But as Arjun saved them, they were wondering whether their initial opinion was right or wrong.

Arjun looked at The leader of the bandit group and said, " These three delivery boys are my friends. They obediently gave all their belongings to you. You should be happy with that. But you gone and even damaged their professional lives by destroying the painting which was supposed to be delivered to the owner of the painting. Now how would they face their pavilion lord? So I have a proposal. You will return their belongings with utmost respect. You destroyed the painting which will affect their professional lives. You need to pay the compensation twice the original price. Then I will let you go."

The leader of the bandit group asked in serious tone, " What if we refuse?"

Arjun gave a warm smile and said, " Then all of you will die today."

The atmosphere fell silent immediately. Then The leader of the bandit group laughed loudly as he said, " Hahahaha! You are one h.e.l.l of a funny guy. I admit that you got some abilities as you were able to block my sword with your bare hands. But do you think you can do the same when attacked by all thirty of us?"

The leader of the bandit group looked towards his group and said, " Boys! Let's show this hero what it meant to mess with us."

"Yes boss! " , All thirty of them said in union.

They all took their places as they divided themselves in the team of three. The ten groups with each group consists of three members surrounded Arjun from all sides.

Arjun looked at the whole process and shook head in disappointment.
