By eight in the evening, Tony entered Bavarian Bliss, a five-star restaurant in Karnaan City known for its classic Bavarian dishes made with premium ingredients.After giving his name and explaining the reason for his visit to a waiter, Tony was led straight to one of the VIP rooms. Inside, Patrick was already seated at a large round table, waiting.Patrick appeared to be alone at the table. Tony quickly scanned the room, confirming no one else was present. He then walked over to the table.“Take a seat, Tony. You arrived just before the food is served. Tonight, we’re going to eat well…”Tony raised his right hand, cutting Patrick off.“Mr. Patrick, I came here to sign the documents we discussed in your office a few hours ago, not for a dinner like this,” Tony said.Patrick smirked, leaning back in his chair. “Tony, this is going to be our last meeting. At least join me for dinner. The first and the last. Okay?”Tony gave Patrick a scrutinizing look. Patrick’s expression didn’t change

Tony sped down the road, his car slicing through the wind as he headed for Ashdell Forest.Midway, his phone buzzed with an incoming call from Mark."Anything yet?" Tony asked, his voice clipped.[Nothing unusual at Ashdell Forest so far, General. But about fifteen minutes ago, three motorcyclists entered the woods. They haven't come out since.]"Just three?"[Yes, General.]Tony narrowed his eyes. His gut told him those three riders weren’t alone; they likely had backup, lying in wait."What about my wife?" he asked next.[My men are keeping a close watch on her. So far, everything's clear. That pink Ferrari of hers is parked outside an insurance company downtown.]Tony frowned. "Nothing suspicious?"[Not yet, General.]"The people tailing her?"[We haven’t spotted them yet, sir.]"Keep looking. I know they’re out there. Make sure she’s safe. If anything happens to her, heads will roll."[Understood, General.]Tony hung up and tossed his phone onto the dashboard. If it weren’t for

The stabber's eyes lit up instantly. He now looked at Tony boldly. A slight smile formed on his face."What's with that face? Did my attack just damage your brain?" Tony sneered.The stabber's smile widened. He activated loudspeaker mode on his phone and said to the caller, "Tell me what to say. The target is in front of me."Tony furrowed his brow, looking at the stabber with questioning eyes. He continued to step forward.[Hey, Tony. If you don't want to find your beautiful wife dead, you better stop retaliating against my buddies over there. This is our first and last warning.]Tony's steps stopped. He could clearly hear what the caller was saying. He could also sense the seriousness of his threat. But, it didn't mean he just believed it."Who's there? You think you can intimidate me that easily, huh?" Tony said loudly.The caller chuckled. The stabber, showing his phone to Tony, smiled slyly.[You need proof that your wife is actually with us? Fine! Listen carefully!]There was a

Tony finally arrived in Kuroacan District, at the location mentioned by the mysterious caller.As the man had requested, Tony brought the three people who had attacked him in the woods earlier. However, they were all dead.Tony turned off his car engine. While observing the surroundings, he got out of the car. As usual, he wasn't carrying any weapons."Come out! I'm here!" Tony said loudly.A moment later, the door of the building in front of him opened slowly. Tony focused his attention on the door. His eyes narrowed.Tony had thought that the ones who would appear behind the open door would be several people with guns in their hands, ready to rain down bullets on him.But he was wrong. The one who came out of the building was only one person. And he, at least for now, didn't seem to be holding any weapons.It was Jeffrey, the grand leader of The Black Devil.Tony increased his vigilance. From the gesture shown by the person who appeared, he knew he wasn't an ordinary person. He coul

Mark was in a helicopter taking him to Kuroacan. He couldn't force himself to calm down. Ever since he left, he had been worried about Tony. He was afraid that something very bad had happened to Jade when the war god arrived there.Mark had asked Jessica to use her pretty sophisticated drone to monitor the situation in Kuroacan, specifically at the point Tony was heading to.Jessica was willing to help him, but couldn't promise anything considering the distance from where she lived to Kuroacan was quite far. But a few minutes ago, Jessica called him, saying that her drone was already in Kuroacan and was scanning the situation at the location Tony had visited.But she hadn't seen Tony. That made Mark even more anxious. Through her drone, Jessica had only seen the car Tony usually used, parked outside a large, wide building. Interestingly, in front of the building, there were many people lying down. It seemed they were all dead.Mark asked Jessica to check if Tony was among the people s
