Chapter 31 Five members of the search team were scattered around the holy venue at a certain distance from Lotus' group, according to the initial plan. Each of them has hidden in the shadows in order to conceal their existence and provide necessary assistance to the administrators. On top of a building just across the holy venue, one person was seen hiding and pointing a self-made long-range rifle towards the entrance. She touches her right ear when everything is ready " Team a copy... I have finished over here, and waiting for further instructions." The communication line was deafeningly quiet. Nobody was responding to her call. She makes another contact, slightly nervously. "Team a, this is Black Bird. Confirm your status copy..." Selina stands silently in the sniper's exact spot to place her karambit on the enemy's neck. *** Lotus takes the lead after receiving a signal from the search team and enters the holy venue. The inside of the building, which was supposed to be peac
Chapter 32"When elder Joan suddenly brought up possible reasons about you, who were targeting administrators with unique abilities as targets, I thought he was talking nonsense. That man believes those three people were chosen for reasons other than their threat level; until I saw this unpleasant smoke."For some reason, Selina's heart is filled with admiration after hearing the story about Joan. "What a perceptive person, to think he figured out my plan in such a short period of time.""As a gift, I'll tell you the story of this smoke." Selina goes on. "After I dethroned Lia Chen, I discovered a worn-out book inside her chamber. That book contains her personal poison-making method, and it got me thinking: what if I find something similar in Sakarem's chamber? Hence, I made this smoke by combining their abilities." "What a splendid invention, Hayes." Damon compliments her. "This smoke could be an excellent way to assassinate your target by blocking the opponent's vision. However, i
Chapter 33Gary's face is flooded with rage, and his hands are trembling as he listens to Jason's taunt."How could I forget... words from a sinner like you, who mercilessly murdered Yasmine Brainer, a friend's daughter, and her unborn sibling. How could I possibly forget something like that?""What else can I say? It's just their bad luck to acquaintance a member of the Hayes family.""JASON? Is this true? Did you really kill my mother and cause Daddy's accident? You're lying, right?" Selina questioned, still denying the truth."You've heard the truth but refused to accept it, claiming that everything is a lie. Catherine's stupid trustworthy gene must have passed down to you Selina, but as a result, you're so easy to manipulate to achieve my objectives."***Josh is having a tough time accompanying Joan in the chamber after Lotus and the others have left Black Circle.Since then, the team leader has been fidgeting because he has been forced to sit idle for an extended period of time.
Chapter 34 Gary's blood veins are visible on his temple, indicating how furious he is with Shadow."Give me a reason for this betrayal, Shadow, before you die."Shadow was unfazed and responded calmly, "Just as you have a grudge against Jason, US also have one against you and the Hayes family."Axel takes great pleasure in seeing Gary angered. "Has the idea of someone exacting revenge on you never occurred to you, Gary Hayes?"Surprisingly, Axel's provocation has no effect and instead restores Gary's calm.Gary looks at Axel with sharp eyes before warning, "My mercy has extended your life in the past, but not in the present and future."Gary has learned his lesson and does not want to give his little brother another chance, so his hand moves back and fires some gunshots at Jason."I'm not giving you another stupid opening, Jason.""I know full well that such deception will not work twice against you."***At the same time, Joan's entourage had just arrived at the holy venue, becoming
Chapter 1 Under the heavy rain, a shady man in his raincoat is watching over a hotel. He looks at it in the same way as someone with an intention of revenge. Full of hostility, disgust, and anger residing under the mask. "Based on the information, this hotel is known as a Black Circle.A suspicious building that is rumored to be filled with assassins and killers around Norland City." 'Just a bit longer and I can avenge you, sis.' This man had this thought. *** Tap – tap – tap Jason Hayes is tapping his finger at the same time he's admiring the scenery that is made by heavy rain from outside his office. Tapping on something has always been his way to show his uneasiness. This time, anxiety with a slight hint of fear has also breached through his charismatic face. A result of thinking about many possibilities that might happen in the future. The source of this uneasiness is nothing
Chapter 2 To investigate the truth of Jason’s death announcement, Selina relies on her speed to take her back into the Black Circle building and have an audience with the administrator. "Where are they? The administrators… WHERE ARE THEY?" shout Selina. Selina does not waste her time and shouting to know the nearest administrator’s location. "Miss Hayes, I have to warn you that your rude behavior is starting to trouble those who are remembering Jason here." announced one employee, struggling to silence her. "It is surprising to have you give up all the composure you have." He continued. "If you keep acting like this, Miss Selina Hayes, I'm going to have to ask you out of this building." "Move... or I will have you down with my dagger!" threatens Selina. "Selina Hayes, behave yourself!! A woman is approaching Selina with a disapproving gesture. "You are not the owner and hold no right to do as you wish here.
Chapter 3 Light's taunting words about Jason Haye's success made Selina loosen her grapple. He takes advantage of her confusion to lift Selina by using his sheer force to slam her to the ground. Selina's intuition warns her about the possible impact of Light's countermeasure against her move. The moment her back almost made contact with the ground, she let go of her grapple and rolled backward. "What do you mean by that Light? Answer me!" yells Selina, demanding an explanation from him. Giggles~ "Do I have to make it simpler, Miss Hayes?" Light seems to enjoy Selina's state of mind. "It was I who killed the Owner of Black Circle, Jason Hayes. That was a great fight to remember."
Chapter 4 “Your shattered plate,” she says. Selina responded to the question. “WHAT?! Selina, how are you going to shatter them? “You requested that I place them here, but you never mentioned that you would not shatter them.” With Selina's stupid logic, Axel is hiding his face. He thinks it's better to let this girl die on the road than to see her break her palate at this stage. Selina, on the other hand, has remained vigilant. Axel's knowledge of the Black Circle could put her in danger. “What are you doing near Black Circle, a man like you?” asks Selina “I just got off work and am heading home. What else do you think I did at 2 in the morning?” The response came from Selina. “Trust is a valuable commodity in Norland City. “I need to double-check that you're not associating yourself with Black Circle.” “I'm not sure what your business with them is, but as a former cop, I strongly advise you to
