Chapter 148


    "Y-You knew?" David''s jaw dropped. "Yes, that''s the one who posted the request. H-He issued a bounty


    of 450,000 on your head in the Assassins Market."


    I knew it! Kingsley clenched his fists. The murder within him was getting palpable, and it stirred up a


    little storm around him.


    Lancer approached him, whispering, "Want me to get rid of the Jacobs, boss?"


    "No." Kingsley took a deep breath. "The Jacobs are just small fry like the Summers. There''s someone


    behind them. If we kill all the small fries, the mastermind''s going to go into hiding." He gritted his teeth.


    "Stick to the n, but don''t forget what Felix did. Once I find out the truth behind that fire seventeen


    years ago, I will make the Jacobs pay a hundredfold."


    A hint of cruelty shed in his eyes. He wanted to murder the Jacobs, but he knew that now was not


    the right time. A long, long timeter, he finally calmed down and heaved a sigh. Once again, he turned


    around. "Is there someone called Serena in Orion Tech?"


    It''s been a few weeks since she went to the neighboring town for her mission. Let''s see if this guy


    knows anything.


    "Serena? Oh, you mean ck Turtle?" David exined, "Killers usually keep their real identity a


    secret. We use codenames, but I used to be her partner, so I know her real name."


    "That''s her. Do you know why she went to Diosna? Who''s her target?"


    David shook his head. "I have no idea, but I''m sure that thepany hasn''t been giving jobs to any of


    the tier two assassins for thest two months. If she did go to Diosna, then she must have taken a job


    from the ck market just like I did."


    Kingsley froze up. Serena took a job from the ck market? She might run into something she can''t


    handle, just like this b*stard here. He was reminded of what Serena told him before she left. "I can get


    you a new car once I finish this job." He started panicking. If Serena ran into trouble just because she


    wanted to get him a new car, he would never forgive himself. "Lancer, call Diosna''s military and tell


    them to look for Serena. I''ll send you her details," he told Lander before looking at David. "He''s useless


    now. Kill him."


    "No, no!" David wet his pants, and he begged, "Please don''t kill me!" However, nobody would be able


    to hear him. Kingsley and Lancer had left, and the perfectly soundproof door was mmed shut,


    leaving him alone in the dark room as he awaited his death.


    They came to Lancer''s office in Building No. 18, and Kingsley massaged his forehead, looking


    exhausted. "So, what''s the news The Anonymous sent us?"


    Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    Lancer reported, "They hacked into Sweoya''s spy website, and the base station of the website is in an


    urban vige located in northern Cleapolis."


    "I need it to be more specific."


    "We don''t have that information yet," Lancer said. "The enemy''s cunning. They''re using Sweoya''stest


    virtual base station tech. The Anonymous can only point out an approximate location."


    Kingsley nodded. "The urban vige in the north, huh? That''s plenty to work with. I''ll be going there


    tomorrow."


    "I''ll get Hades and his men to go with you."


    "No. Everyone will know that we''re soldiers the moment we show up, including the enemy." Kingsley


    shook his head. "I''ll just get someone from the underworld toe with me."


    This was why he epted the Northern Draken Order from Henrich. He must not alert the enemy in


    this capture mission at all costs. Getting the military involved was unfeasible, but not if he got someone


    from the underworld. The enemy would never expect the leader of a little gang to be the fearsome


    Ares.


    Kingsley went to Hill Crest the next day. Reene was recovering well, and she had regained some color.


    Alice had resumed her initial position, and Zayne credited her for all her research. Reene did not tell


    the other sisters that she was hurt in case they got worried. Only Alice and Cecilia were around to take


    care of her.


    Looks like I have nothing to worry here. Kingsley called Baron and asked him to gather a few of his


    better fighters to go with him on this little trip.


    Baron brought about two dozen fighters, and five vans came Kingsley''s way. He had submitted to


    Kingsley after finding out that he had the Northern Draken Order. When Baron reached the hospital


    with his men, he hopped out of the van and bowed to Kingsley. "I got all my best fighters here, boss.


    So, who are we killing this time?"
