When Yale spoke those words, he thought that it would be wonderful if his mysterious backer helped him a bit to intimidate the chief, but he didn't believe that the Mysterious Expert would really help him with that matter.
"Good job, whoever is helping me."
Yale muttered those words, but the Mysterious Expert heard them without any problem.
The Mysterious Expert was flying on the sky after having intimidated the lizardman chief.
"So, you are conscious that someone has been following. Moreover, you also decided to use that in your plan… Very well, I can't meet you directly yet, but sending my aura to a third party didn't matter at all."
Although the words of the Mysterious Expert were directed to Yale, the truth was that those words were said by the Mysterious Expert in a way that no one could hear them.
"The culprits are already caught in the place where your guests should have been resting. Trying to kill them while sleeping, those members of your tribe are really shameless and daring."
Yale had set up a trap while he waited outside speaking with the lizardman chief, and the culprits fell to the trap very quickly.
The lizardman chief left his house and rushed to the place where Yale's group should have been sleeping, but there he only found some lizardmen trapped on an illusion formation. Those lizardmen were stabbing the ground like if it was their worst enemy.
The formation was quite a basic one, but it was powered up with Yale's Soul Illusion, so even though it was far weaker than a real Soul Illusion, those lizardmen with weak wills couldn't resist it.
Usually, the people who had too much blind faith on people or gods that they had never met had quite weak souls and were too weak against illusions.
The lizardman saw the scene, and there was no need to ask to know what was happening because the mutters of those lizardmen were enough.
"Die lowly beast, die… Only the lizardmen can rule this world, everyone else shall die…"
Everyone was repeating similar sentences, which were their true thoughts of their hearts. There were more than ten lizardmen there including some of the most important members of the tribe including the chief's wife.
They originally brought more than enough people to outnumber Yale's group and kill them easily, but they all fell on Yale's trap. In fact, they even wanted to kill Shirk because acting as a servant of someone of other species was heresy for the Lizardman God Cult.
"I will give you two options right now. Option one, kill all of those who are trapped into the formation with your own hands. They can't defend so it should be easy for you."
There were lizardmen at the Grandmaster Rank like the wife of the chief, but under the illusion, they couldn't defend. If it weren't because they were naturally weak against illusions, it would have been hard to trap them with just a formation.
The chief didn't want that option because his wife was there an even though she was a fool, and the chief had said that would kill anyone who offended Yale's group, the chief didn't want to harm his own wife.
Moreover, there were lizardmen of high status and incredible battle prowess there, and the tribe would be extremely weakened if they died. Thus, the chief hoped that the second option was better.
"Option two, you don't need to kill anyone, just act as if nothing happened."
The chief couldn't believe that it was such a good option and he was about to agree to that option when he noticed that the voice continued.
"In that case, I will continue where I left it thirty thousand years ago and wipe out your whole tribe."
The lizardman chief shut his mouth at that moment because he understood that the person who stopped the invasion of the eastern continent wouldn't have any problem killing all of them.
"Can I at least spare my wife's life?"
The chief could endure killing his subordinates, but killing his wife was still too much for him.
"She was the one who poisoned Wyba's bowl. She is the mastermind behind this, she will die today at your hands with the rest of culprits or at my hands with the rest of your tribe, you choose."
The chief's wife confessed everything after entering the formation, so Yale didn't have any doubt that she was guilty. In fact, she was the first in his list of people to kill and the only one that Yale didn't plan to forgive under any circumstance. The fates of anyone who dared to harm Wyba was at least death, and that was the mildest fate.
The chief didn't dare to continue speaking after that because he understood that the sin of his wife was unforgivable.
"I will kill them all myself."
The lizardman chief was determined to do it as that was the way to save the innocent lives of the rest of the tribe; the members of the Lizardman God Cult could only blame their foolishness for turning enemies of the person that was considered as the most fearsome of the world by the people of the western continent.
Yale had never planned to kill all the tribe because the others were innocent, and he would have a rough time killing them all since he didn't believe that his backer would help in that. However, Yale was sure that the lizardman chief would choose the first option to save the rest of the tribe.
Making the chief kill his subordinates directly was the punishment Yale though for the chief because although he didn't act against Wyba, his lack of control over his subordinates was one of the reasons for Wyba being poisoned. Thus, Yale wanted to make him suffer a bit by forcing him to kill the culprits himself.
Yale didn't speak any more until he confirmed that all the culprits were dead while the chief cried on the ground.
