Sword Among Us Chapter 346 – They’re A Bunch of Robbers?!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
There was a place in Shandong called Taixian.
It had shop decorated in a simple fashion selling breakfast. There were three young men who were about twenty-five to twenty-six years old sitting there with grave expressions and straight backs. Their faces were gloomy, and they did not touch the Chinese steamed barbeque pork buns and the snacks in front of them. One of them held a spoon and toyed with some plain porridge in front of him. There was a scowl on his face, and he looked absent-minded, as if he was burdened by something very great.
A few girls in the restaurant sized up the three men who were built, dressed in army green tank tops, and had strong looking faces. Even though their attire made them look poor, their eyes were full of life, their muscles were tight, and the lines of their bodies were full of power. They exuded an aggressive and manly aura, and they managed to attract the gazes of the girls who had finished their breakfast.
However, the three men’s attention was not on the girls who were drooling over them. One of them suddenly spoke after he had been silent for a few minutes.
“We just can’t keep sitting around like this! I’ll go make a call again and see if I can contact some of our comrades…”
“Forget it. We’ve contacted all those that we know. There aren’t many among our cohort who finished our service. We won’t be able to contact those who haven’t ended their service either. It’s not as if you don’t know the rules.”
The man across from him sighed. “If I knew this… ahem… really, money will truly drive a man into a corner!” He grabbed his hair, which was not very long and cursed violently. “Damn those rules!”
“How can we get five million just with the few of us? Even if we get a loan for a house, we can only get around one hundred thousand…”
One of the men had not complained since the start. He had a faint scar on his forehead, which seemed to have been left behind by a knife. There was a cigarette between his lips, and he spoke while cigarette smoke surrounded him.”No matter what, we have to save Big Brother Silver Wolf’s younger sister. Even if we steal, we have to gather enough money.”

“Knife! What are you saying?!” The other two were shocked.
They never boasted or joked around with each other. They grew up under high pressure and a whip, so they never knew what jokes were.
Knife squashed the cigarette butt forcefully against the table before he raised his head and looked at the duo. He enunciated each word clearly. “I have to say this, Big Brother Silver Wolf is the one who saved my life.”
“Don’t be rash! Big Brother Silver Wolf will absolutely not allow you to act recklessly!”
“That’s right, we’ll think of a way.”
“We only have two days!” Knife said crisply. Then, his tone changed. “I have a target. Black Heart Real Estate Developer. They have at least this amount of money in their safe. We can act tonight. I only need one of you to come, and we won’t be injuring anyone.”
When they saw the gesture Knife made, the expressions of the other two men changed.
“We can’t let Big Brother Silver Wolf know.”
“Obviously!”
“Alright, I’ll do it!”
Just when the two agreed to it, a cold voice with a hint of anger rose behind them. “What are you three thinking of…”
The trio turned their heads around.
A man with rage burning on his face sat down beside Knife and glared at him coldly. “And what happens after you perform the robbery? Am I supposed to thank you or is my sister supposed to thank you?”
‘They’re a bunch of robbers?!’
The faces of the girls on the nearby table turned pale and they quickly paid the bills and left.
“Big Brother Silver Wolf!” Knife gritted his teeth and withstood Silver Wolf’s glare. “Brother, don’t butt into this. I’m doing this for Lil’ Sis Yuan. There’s no meaning to my life, anyway. Lil’ Sis Yuan is still young. She shouldn’t die like that. No matter what, I have to gather enough for her surgery fees.”
Bang!
Silver Wolf struck Knife.
“I told you before that you don’t need to worry about the surgery fees. You’re people with your own families. Don’t drag the rest of your brothers down because of me… Gui Dong, I heard from your father that you pawned off the new house he bought for your wedding? Not bad, you sure have ‘guts’, huh? And you, Knife!” His gaze returned from the face of the comrade across him to Knife, and Silver Wolf suddenly grabbed his tank top.

“Who are you thinking about robbing, huh?! We’ve just ended our term of service, and there are plenty of organizations who are eyeing us. Don’t create trouble for everyone if you don’t want us to enter military prison.”
Silver Wolf was the leader of their group of four, so once he spoke, the trio was left speechless. Even Knife, who was the most hot-tempered and had the most unique thought processes, did not dare say anything else.
“But…”
“I know that you have good intentions, but I’ve already told you that I will handle this on my own. Besides…” Silver Wolf brought out a bank account book right before the trio’s gazes, and opened it. “I’ve already transferred the surgery fees for Yuan Yuan’s surgery and her treatment fees for the next few years.”
The trio did not believe him at first.
They took the bank account book and looked at it for a long time.
There was indeed a deposit of five million into the account, along with a transfer of five million from the account.
The deposit happened just a few hours ago, and it was subsequently transferred to another account immediately. They were incredibly familiar with that account. It was the account they had often transferred their money to.
“Haha!”
The trio’s expressions instantly turned from gloomy and depressed to full of disbelief and extreme delight.
“Big Brother Silver Wolf, how did you do it?”
“You managed to get five million just like that?!”
Knife widened his eyes and whispered, “Did you rob someone behind our backs?”
Thud!
Silver Wolf rapped his knuckles against Knife’s head without holding back and said while rolling his eyes, “Don’t even think about robbing someone in the future, and don’t forget about our purpose for joining the army, along with our oath…”
“Yes, sir!” The trio’s expressions became stern, and they answered together. “Big Brother Silver Wolf, we got it.”
“By the way, since you have the money, let’s go and visit Lil’ Sis Yuan. We’ve been practicing martial arts all this while in World of Martial Arts. I’m about to go insane.”
Silver Wolf sighed and got up. “You go. I won’t be going. I’ll be going to the airport now. I came over here to bid farewell to you.”
The trio’s expressions changed.
“Where are you going?!”
Immediately after, they suddenly remembered the five million that Silver Wolf had obtained through unknown means. “Boss, are you running away? Is there something wrong with that five million?”
Once he finished speaking, Knife wrapped his head with his hands.
“What a load of bull! My boss gave it to me in advance. He asked me to work for him for five years, so it might be difficult for me to meet you in the future.”
“Five years for five million, and he even paid you in advance? Who’s your boss? He’s so generous!” The trio had incredibly curious expressions.
“You’ll know in the future.” Silver Wolf smiled mysteriously. “But my boss is someone who trusts others rather easily, and he’s quite careless. The problem is, he’s famous as well. I’m beginning to be a bit worried. If he’s killed before I finish working for him, how am I supposed to go to him and repay him?”
When he saw the trio’s puzzled looks, he laughed.
“I won’t speak more about this since I’m in a hurry. When you have the chance, you can send a letter to me in the game. I’ll then tell you my new phone number.”
When he finished speaking, he turned around and left.
“Big Brother Silver Wolf!”
It was only then that the trio noticed that there was a cab waiting outside the restaurant. There was also a luggage bag inside.
The moment Silver Wolf entered the cab and it was about to leave, Knife remembered something, and he could not help but chase after him.
“Silver Wolf, where are you going? When we’re free, we’ll go look for you!”
As he watched his three comrades get further and further away from him, Silver Wolf’s eyes became red-rimmed, but he gritted his teeth and did not answer. He only said a certain place’s name after a long time had passed.
“Hunan!”

My class [Death Knight] is just barely legal...
Ever since meeting his uncle, Arthur has pushed himself daily to achieve an arbitrary goal. He trained like nobody else did, longer than anybody else could. He neglected his personal relationships to pursue something he didn't even understand, in hindsight. When the time came for his class awakening ritual, he was ready. He was ready to receive a powerful starting class and to break free from his boring lifestyle. Well, you know what they say, "Be careful what you wish for, lest your wish be granted." Arthur was assigned the death knight class, which is just barely, technically, maybe legal. With it, he learns about what drove him to such simple minded ambition in the first place: his affinity. Now, he's faced with a dilemma: will he embrace it, or reject it? 'My class [Death Knight] is just barely legal' is a laid back story with occasional tension, that describes Arthur, a young man, exploring the world, the system and his own mental health as he pursues his ambitions. This story is the first serious fiction I ever wrote, so while criticism is definitely welcomed, keep it polite. I'm going to rewrite the first few chapters at some point, since they're not as good as my later ones, but I'm focusing on my current chapters first. I don't have time to do both yet, since I'm also in the middle of my exams. What to expect from this story: -Litrpg elements -A chaotic good aligned protagonist (that starts off as a neutral good protagonist) -(Hopefully) interesting characters. What not to expect from this story: -Grimdark elements -Harem -An enslaved protagonist. (I mention this due to the background of the mc's class) Release schedule: 1 chapter every other day, 2pm European time (14:00) Join the discord here: https://discord.gg/YHZFB4HMHD

Leave Bad Enough Alone
