Chapter 1524 Is She The Assassin


    3 a.m.


    In the presidential suite of Kyoto Grand Hotel.


    Inside the room, Nathan and Penny were sleeping.


    Nathan, who was sound asleep, opened his eyes when he heard a faint, almost unnoticeable sound


    of a footstep. It sounded like a cat hadnded on the floor.


    The room was enclosed in darkness except for a ray of moonlight that shone through the windows.


    The curtains billowed slightly with the cool morning breeze.


    Nathan squinted his eyes when he realized the windows which that had been closed were now


    open.


    Someone had snuck in!


    At that very moment, a shadow shed across his eyes. Then, a ck dagger headed straight for


    his heart, just like a snake striking its prey.


    As Nathan''s gaze turned cold, he grabbed his pillow by reflex to block the deadly thrust of the


    dagger.


    Poof!


    Si''s dagger pierced through Nathan''s pillow.


    She was shocked that she failed despite her speed and with the element of surprise.


    With a slice of the dagger, the pillow was forcefully cut open and the goose feathers inside burst out


    like a pinata.


    With a wave of his hand, Nathan turned all the feathers into arrows and shot them towards S1.


    Gasping in shock, SI jumped back. She then brandished her dagger around to shield herself from


    the arrow-like feathers.


    By the time she managed to block all of them, Nathan had gotten out of bed. In fact, he had put on


    his pants and shoes, and was in the midst of wearing his white shirt.


    Under the dim moonlight, S1 could vaguely make out his swimmer-like figure and the multiple scars


    on his chest.


    She was shocked when she realized the target of her hastily-epted mission was someone


    terrifyingly strong, despite the ridiculously high bounty that came with it.


    He was not only able to notice and foil her assassination attempt, but he also had time to put on his


    clothes casually.


    Furthermore, he did all that without waking his wife who was still fast asleep.


    Just when S1 was stunned by Nathan''s skills, Nathan stared back at her in surprise when he


    realized the assassin was a woman.


    Whoosh!


    S1 dashed towards Nathan again in lightning speed as she thrust her dagger towards his heart.


    Raising his hand, Nathan grabbed her wrist.


    But Si''s reflexes were lightning quick and she smashed her knee towards his abdomen.


    However, Nathan raised his own knee to block.


    When their shins sh, a muffled bang was heard.


    As his shin was strong enough to break anything, anyone who kicked against it would have their leg


    broken.


    However, he was surprised that the female assassin was able to endure the impact.


    Despite his surprise, his movements didn''t slow down at all as he hurled a right hook towards his


    opponent.


    Raising her left hand, S1 caught Nathan''s wrist.


    Both their left hands were caught by each other''s right hand at the very moment.


    As S1 grunted, she channeled all her strength into a devastating shoulder strike at Nathan.


    Meanwhile, Nathan intercepted her shoulder with a shoulder strike of his own.


    Boom!


    As their shoulders shed, the tiles on the ground cracked while everything else in the room


    shattered from the impact of the shockwaves.


    After the sh, Nathan stood steadily where he was while S1 flew off like a kite.


    At that moment, Nathan could see her face clearly under the moonlight. He couldn''t help but widen


    his eyes and gasp, "Ava Quinn!"


    When SI heard Nathan call out her name, she too was stunned. "You... are the General!"


    She was one of the two captains of Nathan''s personal guards.


    Three years ago, when Nathan was under attack by the Coalition Army, Ava, who was responsible


    for guarding Nathan, had disappeared just before the attack.


    Nathan had had to vanquish his enemies all by himself then.


    After that, the North Army confirmed that Ava had leaked Nathan''s intel to the enemy, which


    resulted in him being ambushed by the Coalition Army.


    However, Nathan felt that there was more to the matter than what met the eye. He had personally


    groomed Ava and she was fiercely loyal, hence unlikely to betray him.


    However, Ava seemed to have vanished into thin air. Despite expending massive resources to


    search for her, all he got was a dead end.


    It had been three years since then and Nathan had never expected to reunite with her under such


    circumstances.


    He too was shocked.


    When Ava realized her target was Nathan, she was first shocked before her emotions turned into


    one of anguish and regret. Bearing with the pain of her injuries, she fled out the window.


    Just when Nathan was about to give chase, he heard Penny''s voice. "Hubby, that''s an assassin,


    how did she get in..."

    Turning his head, he realized that Penny had awoken during his fight with Ava.


    He replied with a wry smile, "She used to be my subordinate but vanished a long time ago. I didn''t


    expect to see her again as an assassin sent to kill me.”
