“Where are we going?” Alpha Kilian  asked.


    Acting all mysterious, Dave pointed at the first floor and went upstairs with a smile. Alpha Kilian  frowned in bewilderment but followed him anyway.


    Upstairs, they continued to walk for some time before arriving at a bedroom. At this point, Alpha Kilian ‘s expression was tense.


    After entering the room, Dave turned around and shot him a teasing look. “Well, do you want to get some rest here?”


    Alpha Kilian  nced around the room and responded, “I dare not stay in your room. After all, I don’t want anyone whoes in to think that I’m you.”


    Dave narrowed his eyes. “You have a dirty mind!” Alpha Kilian  did not reply to that.


    Dave walked toward the wardrobe and touched the back of it. Slowly, it opened and revealed a hidden room.N?velDrama.Org content.


    Then, he nced at Alpha Kilian  and said, “Let’s go.” Alpha Kilian  followed him silently.


    It was not a simple hidden room but rather an independent suite. Alpha Kilian  smelled something as soon as he got in.


    “Dave.”


    “Dave.”


    Sitting in front of theputers, a few young men rapidly typed away on their keyboards. A series of codes appeared on many screens that differed in size.


    Dave came up to Alpha Kilian  and asked, “What do you think? Is the environment okay?”


    “I think you’re the only one who would build a hidden room in your bedroom,” Alpha Kilian  scoffed. “Is there a problem?”


    “I’m curious to know if you ever feel worried that they might see you sleeping naked.”


    Dave answered calmly, “Well, it’s a one-way device. They can never walk out of my bedroom without my fingerprint.”


    Raising his eyebrows, Alpha Kilian  couldn’t help butmend him, “What an awesome design!”


    Dave rolled his eyes at him and asked, “How about it? Do you want me to design a simr one for you?” “Please don’t. I’m afraid I don’t deserve it.”


    “I suspect your hidden room is bigger than mine!” Dave whispered. Alpha Kilian  listened without saying anything.


    After a while, Dave walked toward the young men and looked at one of them. “Miguel, how is the investigation going?”


    “The information you need is all here.”


    “All right. Pleasee over and exin to us,” Dave instructed.


    As a thought popped into his mind, Dave introduced Alpha Kilian  to the young man. “By the way, this is… Alpha Morris . He’s a lot older than you.”


    Alpha Kilian  shot Dave a bewildered nce.


    In response, Dave added, “This young man is a Gen Z! Aren’t you a lot older than him?” “In that case, you’re also a lot older than him,” Alpha Kilian  argued.


    “Well, I’m younger than you,” Dave replied smugly.


    “Is that so? In that case, shouldn’t you show me some respect?” Alpha Kilian  asked. “Should I bow to you?”


    “I’m willing to ept it if that’s what you want.”


    “You can’t tolerate even the slightest of teasing, can you?” “Why should I?”


    Dave nodded, for he admitted that Alpha Kilian  was better at exchanging jabs. “You win,” Dave said.


    “Thank you.”


    Dave stopped dwelling on it and turned around to walk toward the central control panel.


    After sitting around the control panel, Dave rested his legszily on it. Momentster, he snapped his fingers and instructed, “You may start now.”


    Miguel nodded in response. As soon as he touched the control panel, a picture of Boss appeared on the screen.


    “After conducting a thorough investigation for a few days, we’ve finally dug out some information about the background of the person with the codename Boss.”


    Alpha Kilian  turned his gaze to the control panel upon hearing it.


    “This is Boss. His real name is Yosef Smith. He is a mixed race man and has Spaunian nationality. His parents died in a war, and he joined Midnight fang pack  when he was young. He nned many terrorist attacks and contributed a lot to Midnight fang pack . However, he is always undermined by someone called


    General Will. As such, they are believed to be friendly on the surface but are dissatisfied with one another deep down.”


    “Who is General Will?” Alpha Kilian  questioned with narrowed eyes.


    “He is the right-hand man in Midnight fang pack . However, we haven’t found out who the real leader is, and thus no one knows his identity for now,” Miguel exined.


    Alpha Kilian  frowned upon hearing it. “In that case, Boss is an influential figure in Midnight fang pack !”


    After mulling over it briefly, Alpha Kilian  said, “Stop looking for them.” Dave was confused. “Why?”


    “You won’t be able to find them, and even if you do, they’re not going to work for you,” Alpha Kilian  imed.


    Dave frowned. “How do you know that?” “I just do.”


    “You know them?” Dave smelled something fishy.


    Alpha Kilian  lowered his gaze and instinctively hid the truth. “I don’t.” “Then, how do you know they won’t work for me?”


    “Didn’t you say so yourself? You spent years searching, so do you think they’re oblivious to the fact that you’re looking for them? There’s only one possibility, and that is they refuse to work for you,” Alpha Kilian  exined.


    Dave’s brows furrowed as Alpha Kilian ‘s exnation swayed his opinion. After pondering for a long while, he finally said, “I can’t give up even if that’s the case. Everyone else is looking for them too. If I give up now, the others will have a higher chance of finding them. Shadow Seeker and Anonymous better be smart and continue to stand firm as they are right now. Otherwise, any movement they make will


    attract the pursuit of every organization. Things won’t be as peaceful as how it is now by that time.” Alpha Kilian ‘s gaze darkened. “What about you?”


    “What?”


    “What are you going to do if someone else seeds in recruiting Shadow Seeker?” Alpha Kilian  asked.


    His question stunned Dave at first. Then, the muscles along Dave’s jaw tensed, and a fierce glint shed across his eyes. “I’ll do what anyone else will.”


    “And what is that?”


    “Kill them.” Dave continued, “I won’t give them the chance to go against me.” Alpha Kilian  narrowed his eyes at Dave’s deration.


    I’m starting to understand why Nelly  hides her identity, but I also now know what it means that she was honest with me.


    He dropped his gaze to the floor before swinging it to Dave. “The same goes for you then. You won’t get that chance,” Alpha Kilian  said with a smirk.


    Even though Dave hadn’t met Alpha Kilian  over the years, he understood thetter’s character and knew he wouldn’t state something confidently without reason. “What do you mean?”


    Alpha Kilian  thought about it for a while before he spoke. “What I’m saying is, don’t even think about it. They’re not someone you can even think about.”


    Dave sensed that he was implying something. “J, are you sure you don’t know who Shadow Seeker is?”


    Alpha Kilian  is like a walking miracle to me. When we established DX Group together, he could make things I deemed impossible happen. After a while, I slowly grew ustomed to it. I’m not surprised if he says he knows Shadow Seeker since it’s not entirely impossible in Alpha Kilian ‘s case.


    However, Alpha Kilian  staunchly denied it. “I don’t.”


    “Then why can’t I even think about them?” Dave asked.


    “That’s because Shadow Seeker won’t favor any one organization.” “How do you know that?”


    Alpha Kilian  turned his gaze to Miguel. “Well, everyone in the hackermunity knows about it. Ask him if you don’t believe me.”


    Miguel nodded. “He’s right. Shadow Seeker did dere on the web they wouldn’t favor any one organization and even made a vow. I don’t think they’ll go back on their words.” His eyes sparkled as he exined.


    The creases on Dave’s forehead deepened. “What good does it do if they made a vow? If taking an oath


    works, we wouldn’t need the police.”


    “You might not believe it, Dave, but the hackermunity does. After all, Shadow Seeker’s the god that every one of us admires,” Miguel justified.


    Alpha Kilian  stayed silent at Miguel’s remark, but his face softened, and a faint smile yed on his lips. There was even some pride gleaming in his eyes.


    He looked at Miguel. “From your tone, I guess you admire them too?” “Of course!” Miguelughed. “They’re my idols.”


    “Who do you admire more? Shadow Seeker or Anonymous?” Alpha Kilian  questioned.


    “Um…” Miguel was caught off guard by his question. “How do I say this? They’re both top hackers, so I admire them both.”


    “What if you have to choose one?” Alpha Kilian  was persistent. “Then…”


    Alpha Kilian  stared at him intently, adamant about getting a solid answer. How can Anonymouspare to Nelly ? Anonymous is nothing.


    Miguel frowned, clearly troubled over making a decision.


    Dave couldn’t help but say, “Why are you troubled over something like this? It’s not like something will happen after you make a decision.”


    Alpha Kilian  objected, “What if something does happen?” “Like what?”


    “What if… one of them decides to take him as their apprentice?” Alpha Kilian  suggested. Miguel’s eyes brightened. “R-Really?”


    Dave eyed Alpha Kilian  suspiciously. “I’m just saying,” Alpha Kilian  insisted.
