Thud.
Karen was scared and fell to the ground, her face full of terror. In the corner, she found a signature ‘X.’ It must have been Mr. X. He had discovered what she had done.
Immediately, Karen knelt on the ground, kowtowing with loud thuds.
“I’m sorry, Mr. X. I was wrong. I shouldn’t have… I was blinded by greed and even sold my own daughter… I’m not worth being a mother… I shouldn’t have…”
Thud.
Thud.
Thud.
Out of fear, Karen kept kowtowing madly on the ground.
“I’m not joking. Elise and Leslie are my everything. I hope there won’t be a next time. Otherwise, even if you are my mother-in-law, I will kill you in a way Elise doesn’t know.”
Outside the courtyard, Robin muttered and then left.
He was serious.
Elise and Leslie were his bottom line.
Nothing was more important than them!
If it happened again, he would kill.
…
The Wraith residence in Stillwater.
Thud.
With a kick, the Wraith family’s gate was kicked open. Jeff Reczek was the first to charge in, his eyes cold, and he ordered, “Seal off this place.”
“Yes.”
The Wolfman Guards behind him moved.
In Eastern Kisia, there were only two people who had the right to mobilize the Wolfman Guards. One was Robin, and the other was Robin’s right-hand man, the number one madman, Jeff Reczek.
He had another position, the captain of the Wolfman Guards.
He had been fighting with Robin for many years.
They were comrades, and brothers.
“What are you doing? This is the Wraith family, one of the three major families in Stillwater.”
Because of the commotion, many of the family came out.
Even a security team came out.
“I work for Mr. X, I am Jeff Reczek, and I am here on business. Anyone who doesn’t want to die, get out of my way! Today, I, Jeff Reczek, am here on behalf of my master to demand an explanation. Let Walter Wraith come out.”
Jeff Reczek’s temper wasn’t good, and he roared.
The entire Wraith family was stunned.
Mr. X had come to their door?
So arrogant?
This was the Wraith family, and they wanted Walter Wraith to come out.
“Who is Mr. X to dare call our master out?”
A member of the Wraith family stepped out, about 1. 7 meters tall, with a rogue appearance, hands in his pockets, swaggering forward, with a dagger in his hand. He introduced himself, “I am Kim Wraith, this is my home. Everyone knows me as Black Blade, ranked ninety-eighth on the Darkboard.”
“It’s actually Kim Wraith, from the family…”
The people below were about to be shocked.
This was a family member who had been training outside, never came back, and had become a mercenary abroad.
Very strong.
Very terrifying.
He had even made it onto the Darkboard!
However, in the next second, all of them were speechless, because Jeff Reczek had somehow appeared in front of Kim Wraith.
He then reached out a hand and grabbed Kim Wraith’s neck.
Then.
“Shut up,” Jeff Reczek said discontentedly.
With a crackling sound.
His neck was broken.
Then, with a bang.
Kim Wraith was thrown to the ground, his eyes filled with disbelief. He probably never thought that on his first day back with his family after a life of fighting abroad, when he wanted to become a formidable soldier and start a wonderful life, he would be killed in an instant.
And cursed, “Shut up.”
“…”
The entire Wraith family was so shocked they couldn’t speak. They were about to praise one of their own, a cocky soldier and also a Darkboard fighter…
And then, he was gone. Just like that… quite suddenly.
“I told you, today I, Jeff Reczek, as a subordinate of Mr. X, came here for an explanation. Let Walter Wraith get out. If he doesn’t get out, I’ll tear down your Wraith family and slaughter every last one of you,” Jeff Reczek roared.
Was this coming for an explanation?
Just everyone might think he had actually come to wipe out the family.
The eyes of all the Wraith family members darkened. This subordinate of Mr. X was too arrogant. Did he think their Wraith family, the first family in Stillwater, was some joke? He was daring to be so reckless.
“Young man, you’re too presumptuous!”
The captain of the security team stepped forward. Being a security captain, he was also an fighter.
However.
“Shut up.”
Jeff Reczek looked over, angrily throwing his military knife. With a thud, it lodged into the chest of the security captain, causing him to fall to the ground, blood gushing from his chest.
“I was taken down in an instant?”
The security captain incredulously looked at his own chest.
A military knife was stuck in it.
He himself was not weak. Being able to become the security captain of the Wraith family, there was no weakling among them. He had noticed Jeff Reczek’s thorny presence, but because he was paid by the Wraith family, he had stepped forward anyway.
He thought that even if he wasn’t a match for Jeff, he would at least survive.
Then, just like that, he was taken down in an instant. Who was this man, really? That was his final thought before he died.
“I’m looking for Walter Wraith. Anyone who comes out will meet the same end as the previous two. Walter Wraith, get out,” Jeff Reczek was in a terrible mood that day.
As the captain of the Wolfman Guards, he was responsible for the Wolfman Guards. But that day, his boss’s wife had been kidnapped. This was the fault of the Wolfman Guards and also his own. In this small Stillwater, they couldn’t even complete their mission. It was a disgrace!
Moreover, how dared they lay their hands on their lady? Did they consider the three hundred thousand fierce soldiers of Eastern Kisia some joke? His killing intent was boiling over.
Only then did Walter Wraith come out, wearing a loose black robe and a pair of small glasses, looking somewhat scholarly. If people didn’t know him, they might think he was a teacher. In reality, he was the king of the Stillwater family, the king of business.
“What’s all the fuss about? According to Mr. X, isn’t there still four days left?” Walter Wraith was not in a hurry, slowly approaching.
With Walter Wraith’s smiling face, it wouldn’t be right for Jeff Reczek to show hostility, but Jeff Reczek had other ways.
“I’m here on my master’s orders, bringing a gift.” Jeff Reczek also smiled.
The members of the Wraith family were stunned. Was a smile all that was needed? But when they saw the gift, they couldn’t smile anymore. One of the Wolfman Guards was dragging in a body without both arms, covered in blood, as if he were dragging a dead body.
And that body, they recognized. It was the eldest son of the Wraith family, Walter Wraith’s legitimate son, Penn Wraith.
Immediately, the entire Wraith family fell into an eerie silence, even involuntarily stopping their breathing.
Walter Wraith was silent, looking at the mutilated body. This was his son, his most accomplished son.
“My master said, if there is a next time, every member of the Wraith family will meet a violent death. This time is just the interest. Also, my master said, struggle hard. There are four days left. You can still enjoy the sun and the air,” Jeff Reczek left with the Wolfman Guards.
No matter how cunning your plots are, I’m sorry, but we are the elite troops of the Kisia. Our master is Primus, famed for his fierceness, commanding over a million mighty soldiers, unmatched in the country. You’re not even in the same league as us.
