The fearless young men, boiling with vigor, were incredibly reckless, and among them were quite a few who were capable and cunning enough to become formal members of Confezzioni. Those who weren't under the direct command of the leadership formed groups with like-minded individuals and roamed as they pleased. While street thugs and some unluck

At that time he looks like a real King of hell. After that maybe because he break off with that atmosphere in Italy or something else, he restrained himself a lot. For common people killing someone was a more frightening thing. But there are still some people who are in a gray zone. They are someone between black and white. They are someone who doesn't break the law but they are also the most terrifying people. He was more shocked that that person has a mental problem but still, Mr. Raychand decides to deal with that psycho himself. On the other hand, this was not Italy. But then he thought of something. It seems that this was something related to that Miss Kapoor.

Her breath caught sharply. “No.” Adrian’s expression sharpened immediately. “What?” Another fragment interrupted violently. Protect— Then another. Correct instability— Then another. Do not remove Adrian— Elara grabbed her head again, gasping. “They’re conflicting…” she whispered.

Then Anna asks the question that breaks everything: “What happens when you disagree? Mabel wants one thing, Alistair wants another, the Architect wants a third. You’re merged consciousness but you’re still three awareness with different desires. When internal conflict happens, which value wins? Who controls reality’s framework when the hybrid consciousness can’t agree?” Silence. We hadn’t thought about that.

Ghost failed to meet my eyes, pretending to be listening to Doc. “Something?” “So this war you spoke of is with shifters and hunters?” Magnus asked. “Hunters and all enhanced humans. Hunters are overpopulating, and their killing is going unchecked.
