Stopping by the sobbing woman, he sneered at her, "You'd better be done before I get back or I'll make you lick it off the ground."Arthur made a mental note on Pablo. Seeing as he was not only one of the lackeys who so easily followed the orders of the seven great families, his terrible actions didn't seem to stray from the norm for him.Putting his thoughts aside and Arthur crouched before the woman who looked up surprised.He had a mission and he planned to complete it without any issue.As for Pablo, just like Arthur did to Ethan Burton, Johnathan Williams and Nathaniel Burton, he would do to him as well.The war god was not one to show mercy to his enemies.Leon almost felt bad for Pablo, knowing just what would happen to him as he had not only been marked by Arthur for his actions ten years ago, but he had once again made himself into the enemy of the most feared man during the war."S-sir, you shouldn't be here." She stuttered, sniffling and wiping the tears that lingered in h

"That's a better look," Arthur tilted his head in mild amusement, turning to Leon who had a similar reaction."Now, the food's getting cold on the floor. Lick it.""I'm sorry to interrupt but," Ana stated, nervously fiddling with her fingers, "There's no need to do all this my sake."Raising a brow at her, Arthur said, "Don't be mistaken, this isn't for you. This is simply a lesson to teach a fool his place. And also, I don't appreciate being interrupted."But while he said that, his actions also had her in mind, because even after getting Liam McHenry to give her a job and giving her some money, the system had yet to notify him of the mission's completion.So he assumed like with his previous experiences, it was tied to his main mission which was to utterly destroy Pablo.And compared to what he had originally planned, this was much milder. But Arthur already knew, it would be all in due time.Observing her apologetic bow briefly, Arthur returned his attention to Pablo, his tone low

Arthur had gone to the Lefevre household with the intention of negotiating a deal that would not only grant him a prominent figure as an ally but would also provide him a large network of contacts. After all if he wanted to keep the ones aware of his identity as the war god down to a small number, he had to have means he could follow as the military medic he pretended to be.But what he didn't expect was that a poison that had forced him to learn medical skills to survive as a system mission would rear its ugly head thousands of miles away.After all, with the symptoms he saw, there was no way what the daughter of the household was dealing with was anything but said poison.Silently weighing the pros and cons of his mentally suggested set of actions against each other, especially with the mission given to hjm by the system, Arthur decided to follow through.Walking to the opposite side of the bed, he observed Henri's daughter closely, tapping the bLiamm of his chin while he confirmed

Luna watched the two of them discuss, surprised to see how the one she always viewed as her younger cousin had grown. It seemed his time in the military had really changed him.Smiling sadly, Luna regretted that she and Arthur couldn't have had normal lives all because of the actions of others.Shaking her head subtly, she decided to help him to have as much of a normal life as they could possibly have.Arthur noticed Luna's reactions but remained silent, leaving her to her own thoughts. At the very least she didn't feel lonely or bored in any way.Putting that aside, his thoughts returned to his earlier statement on forming a scouting team of sorts.He remembered just how important reconnaissance was in the battle and while the use of violence and the like was minimal, this was still a form of battle.And information was highly valued. So he needed a team just dedicated to searching, extracting and giving him information whenever he requested it.The car stopped at another similar ye

Turning to him wide-eyed, Isabella glanced back at the older men who stood in a group, a few catching her eyes and smiling at her. She faced Arthur with a sigh. "Guess I've been found out." Arthur sipped the last of his drink, placing his glass and gesturing for her to put hers on a passing server's tray.Clinging on Arthur's hand much to his surprise, Isabella leaned closer as she spoke, "Since you've exposed my genius plan, you'll have to make do as my date for the night."Arthur had decided since he set foot in the auction hall, that he would place his role as the son of the Rhyfel house as first priority and if that required him to adapt as he did on the battlefield, then so be it.Smiling politely, Arthur's gaze took on a cold calculative look while he watched the seemingly innocent Isabella.He knew something else was at play, but decided to go along with it, after all there was nothing anyone of them here could do to be a threat to him.Leading her through the hall, they sca
