My sword is currently at his neck, but this man still looks unafraid of having his neck cut. He seemed to be smiling.

"Tell me where your base?"

"Hahaha, just kill me, I don't care," The man smirked.

This displeased me, I stabbed his shoulder with my sword and spun it, man groaned in pain feeling a cold pain from his shoulder. But his face didn't give up at all he was still smiling. I suddenly felt an attack from behind, so I had to dodge it.

"Brother, are you okay?"

It was one of the people from the group earlier, he tried to help the man up.

"I'm fine,"

"Brother, use it, we can't beat it."

When he heard this brown-haired man's face was slightly uncomfortable. But he nodded, he took out a seedling, I looked at this seed in confusion at first. But after that I opened my eyes wide, the man threw seedling on ground and vines appeared from there attacking me, my hand was bleeding when hit by vines thorns.

'Alice? This is Alice's ability, how did he get that seed,'

I feel really angry now, what happened to Alice? Why did bandits have this seed? Thinking something bad had happened to Alice, my anger grew even more intense. Without thinking I made a red ball throw it at vines.

When they saw vines they had just throw away rotted and crumbled. They were dumbfounded, before they even knew what was happening, I had tied them with invisible chains and brought them in front of me. They both screamed in pain, feeling intense tightening nearly crushing their entire bones.

"Where did you get those seeds from?" I looked at the man with anger.

"Guh… I won't tell you," The brown-haired man refused.

I tightened the chains, so bone sound cracking was heard.

"No Brother!!, I'll tell you, so stop hurting my brother!"

"Connie, don't tell him!!"

I covered the man's mouth so as not to speak, and looked at the black-haired man.

"Tell me where did you get it?"

"It-it was given by our leader, she has the ability to make vines, I only know this,"

"Hah? leader?" I was astonished.

'Wait, so their leader is Alice? Why did Alice become bandit leader? What is she doing right now?'

"You're bandits, right? Am I wrong?" I saw them surprised.

"How can we compare to bandits? We are a different group. We are Red Rose Gang, we will only rob nobles and rich." The brown-haired man said angrily.

I held my head, so I mistargeted, but still, they still tried to rob nobles and rich people. Isn't this still a bad thing? What was Alice really thinking? I feel my head getting dizzy thinking about this.

"Take me to your base, I want to speak to your leader,"

"No, we won't-"

"Take me there, or you will know the consequences." I narrowed my eyes with killing intent.

They got goosebumps hearing me, after looking at each other and nodding their heads. They were confident in their leader's abilities, defeating this strange man in front of him was an easy thing.

"Alright, I'll take you to meet our leader. But, let us go."

"That's an easy thing,"

I nodded and let them go, they were having a hard time standing up properly. Seeing this I could only sigh and give a potion.

"What's this?" The brown-haired man frowned.

"Drink and you will understand."

"You gave us poison." The man looked disbelieving.

Veins popped on my temples hearing this.

"If I wanted to kill you, I would have done it a long time ago. Drink it, or you want me to hurt you more," I said displeasedly.

They both nodded quickly and drank it. Immediately wounds on their bodies disappeared, They were surprised to see this because I'm not lying.

"Thank you," Connie said.

"I'm doing this so you can take your injured friend. Hurry up, I want to meet your leader."

They just nodded and brought three people who were lying on the ground after the battle earlier. Following them from behind, I can't wait to meet Alice, many things I want to ask.

[Master I hope you are more careful with that woman, she might kill your woman if she finds out you have another woman]

I frowned hearing this, should I release my disguise and be honest with Alice? What if an unexpected happens? What should I do? I feel conflicted now, without realizing we've arrived at their base.

When I got there, I saw a lot of children to elderly. They look like slum dwellers. We arrived in front of a house that looked quite luxurious for a house in this area.

Two men quickly brought their injured friend into the house and shouted.

"Leader!! There's an intruder here, hurry and save us."

When they heard the word intruder, everyone there immediately surrounded me, I couldn't help but sigh at this. A woman wearing a red robe came out of the house, her face was beautiful with blonde hair and cat ears. But right now her expression didn't look good at all when she saw me. It was filled with intense killing intent, as she watched her subordinates get injured.

"Who are you, why did you infiltrate here?"

I didn't answer at all and just looked at the woman in front of me at this time, she was still as beautiful as ever. I feel like hugging her immediately and saying I'm Lute, but I feel like it's a bad thing to do now. Taking a deep breath, I looked at Alice seriously.

"They attacked me and tried to rob me before, is there another reason I came here, luckily I didn't kill them and just sent them back,"

"So, what do you want now?" Alice didn't budge and just looked at me.

I felt uncomfortable with Alice being indifferent towards me. If it was before, she would continue to be spoiled in front of me and we tease a lot, but now we are in a different position.

"You're the leader of this group, did you? Can you give me a bit of information about bandits who have been acting and disturbing residents here for the past few days, I was assigned to deal with them."

When Alice heard this she narrowed her eyes at me. As the leader of the Red Rose Gang, she did get this news. Sometimes some people came here thinking they were bandits, but she beat them all with ease.

And now that a foreign man came asking for information about bandits who were attacking, this was different from before. She also felt this man in front of her gave her a strange feeling, she feels closeness to this man and this man's gaze did not look hostile towards her, this surprised her.
