C399: Desert And Reward (Part 2)
After slowly scanning the surroundings, Soga continued: "Alright, I have already been punished for my mistake. Now … It's your turn now. In this battle, although I made a mistake, the one who made a mistake was not me alone! "
"This …" Hearing Soga's words, everyone raised their heads and looked at Soga in shock. They could not think of anyone else but Soga had made a mistake.
Abruptly turning his head, Soga coldly looked at Nico and said: "Although you are a girl, as a member of a team, you never show up during the entire battle. I would like to ask, what were you doing at that time?"
"Me?" Hearing Soga's words, Nico couldn't help but to stand up in panic. She wanted to explain something, but she was unable to say it in the end …
In fact, for the past few days, Nico had been thinking about Soga and hadn't slept for a few days. It was only until dawn today that she finally lost consciousness and fell asleep.
After opening her mouth a few times, Nico finally sat back down helplessly, and shook her head: "I'm sorry, I have nothing to say, I was indeed derelict in my duty, at a time when everyone was fighting, I was actually sleeping. So Young Master, please punish me, no matter what punishment it is, I will sincerely accept!"
Nodding his head majestically, Soga turned his head around and said to Xiang Yun and Roger: "For Nico's inaction, the direct victims were you two. As for Nico's punishment, it'll be up to you guys! "
Hearing Soga's words, Xiang Yun and Roger couldn't help but look at each other. At the same time, Soga continued: "However, Nico's mistake, must be punished as expected. If you guys are trying to get away with it, then I will take back your rights and give you punishment myself!"
Hearing Soga's words, Roger and Xiang Yun's hearts couldn't help but rise. They timidly looked at the scar on Soga's face, which was still dripping with blood, and secretly worried in their hearts. If Soga also made Nico do this, then what would they do?
While thinking, Xiang Yun and Roger put their heads together and quickly communicated with each other. After a long while, the two finally finished discussing and each returned to their own seats.
Looking at Soga seriously, Xiang Yun said with determination: "We have already decided. Nico has indeed made a mistake, and must be punished. As the direct victims, Roger and I have decided that in the next three years, Nico will wash boss's clothes, and clean boss's room, and Nico will have to bring meals for boss every time, and make boss's bed, and in every morning, Nico will pack things up for boss. Also, Nico will have to guard boss's side the moment we enter the battlefield, to try to protect boss and make up for this mistake!"
"This …" Hesitantly looking at Xiang Yun and Roger, Soga said in puzzlement: "This punishment, is indeed very serious. It is equivalent to changing Nico into my personal servant. As the two great warriors in this battle, Nico's target for serving should be you two! "
Hearing Soga's words, Xiang Yun's face suddenly became serious, and said seriously: "Boss, please stop mentioning the words 'great warriors', are you trying to humiliate me and Roger because we are incapable?"
Just as Xiang Yun's words fell, Roger continued to speak: "That's right, Xiang Yun is right. If everything goes to the best of our abilities, then it's really too hard to accept, even though Xiang Yun and I are both severely injured, we have no merits to speak of, and should not be rewarded!"
"Hmm …" Nodding in agreement, Xiang Yun looked deeply at Soga and said: "In this battle, you have indeed committed a great mistake. In fact, during this period of time, you have been making mistakes!"
Hearing Xiang Yun's words, Soga lowered his head in shame, and did not dare to look straight into Xiang Yun's eyes. At the same time, Xiang Yun continued: "But, your fault has already been offset by that scar on your face that will never be erased. Which is to say, after you punished yourself, your mistake has already been punished, okay boss?"
Raising his head in confusion towards Xiang Yun, Soga nodded and said, "What you said is not wrong. Since you have committed a mistake, you should be punished.
"Hmm …" Xiang Yun continued to speak, "Since boss's mistake has already been punished, then, based on boss's principle of being rewarded for meritorious service and being punished for being wrong, in this battle, with just the power of one person, you eliminated five pirate ships, seized the pirate flagship, captured the pirate leader alive, and saved the entire team's boss, shouldn't you be rewarded?"
"This …" After hesitating for a while, Soga stuttered: "This is nothing, this is what I should do!
"Humph!" With a cold snort, Xiang Yun said unhappily: "What you're saying is, this is your responsibility, and has nothing to do with us, right? You want to tell us that this guild is yours alone, right? "
"Absorb!" Hearing Xiang Yun's words, Soga couldn't help but take in a breath of cold air. After calmly thinking for a while, Soga decisively said, "I was wrong, it was indeed … "Since I have already been punished for my mistakes, then I should consider it a reward. As the biggest contributor to this battle, I should be rewarded!"
"Heh heh …" Hearing Soga's words, Xiang Yun couldn't help but laugh. "That's more like it, as a wise boss, he should be treated as an equal, and should not only be punished strictly, but if he has rendered meritorious services, he should also be rewarded well. If you do not accept the award because you are the boss, it is because you deliberately made yourself special! "
Soga nodded his head, perspiring profusely. Soga laughed: "That's right, I understand, even though I think that I am being impartial, in reality, I am raising my own price. Since others will be rewarded for meritorious service, then as a member of the team, I should be rewarded for my meritorious service.
"Pah pah pah …" Hearing Soga's words, Xiang Yun, Nico and even Roger couldn't help but clap sincerely. That's right … They did not need a selfless boss to make a mistake. The boss was punished together with everyone, making meritorious deeds, and the boss was rewarded together with everyone. This was everyone's ideal team. Here, the only difference was the division of labor; there was no difference in status!
Looking at everyone's sincere smile, Soga slightly turned his head, looked at Nico, and said: "Nico … In the future, I will have to trouble you with my food and clothing. I hope that it doesn't cause you any trouble."
With a sweet smile, Nico shook her head slightly. "How could Nico be troubled? Rest assured young master, Nico will do my best!"
Looking at Soga and Nico's intimate conversation, Xiang Yun secretly heaved a sigh of relief. The arrangement this time, was actually Xiang Yun's hard work to save the team, and he hoped that under the constant contact, Soga would fall love to Nico, if not, even though the team looked peaceful right now, but the matter of Soga and Nico, was still a ticking time bomb, and had not been destroyed!
Just as Xiang Yun was pondering, Soga said: "Xiang Yun, what you have to do in this battle is not right. I think, whether it is before entering the Great trade road or after entering the Great trade road, you have to care too much about the cultivation of your own family's secret martial arts.
"Eh?" Puzzled, Xiang Yun looked at Soga and asked: "Boss, what do you mean?"
Looking at Xiang Yun seriously, Soga said decisively: "I am referring to the power of the Fruit of Slaying, I realize that in battle, you always like to rely on your own techniques, as well as your own true energy to fight against your enemies, and practically never use the power of the Fruit of Slaying. When possessing such a powerful ability, you actually do not make good use of it, and combine it with your own battle skill, it is truly a huge waste!"
Hearing Soga's words, Xiang Yun's entire body shook, and his eyes lit up like never before. All along, Xiang Yun had been pursuing too much to break through his cultivation realm, and had neglected other things, and now that he thought about it, the cutting force of the Fruit of Slaying was not any weaker than his own, and it even had a strong special effect. Since it was like this, why did he not use it much? One must know, only with more uses can it be used!
As he was thinking, Soga continued to speak: "Moreover, Xiang Yun, the martial arts I train in the most are not the ones from the east, but I know of a principle, which is that speed makes waste. The more you are anxious to break through, the harder it is for you to do so, and your frustrated heart has already become a barrier to breaking through.
