King of War's Dominance

Chapter 65: REVENGE 1: Completed

Thom looked at Benny with an expression that was hard to read. His face was calm—too calm for someone who had just been riddled with bullets. His lips moved slowly, his voice low yet firm, as though every word had been chosen with care.

“If you are trying to kill me, it will never succeed,” Thom said. “Because I have long been acquainted with death. I can even restrain it myself, holding it back from ending my life.”

The words made Benny’s breath hitch. His body trembled beyond his control, cold sweat trickling down his temples.

“Y-you’re going to kill me…?” Benny asked in a shaking voice, almost a whisper. His feet retreated step by step until his back struck the iron table behind him. He was certain this was the moment Thom would repay everything—the betrayal, the bullets, the hatred aimed at him.

But instead, Thom stepped closer, slowly, without haste. Each step made Benny’s heart pound harder, as if it were about to leap out of his chest. The distance between them closed.

“I will not kill you,” Thom said. “I only kill those who interfere with my life. I only kill those who try to hurt the people I love. I am not a mindless executioner—I am merely the one who delivers them to hell.”

Benny swallowed hard. His knees felt weak, barely able to support his own weight. He wanted to speak, to beg, but his throat felt locked. Thom stared straight at him, his gaze cold yet unwavering.

“Do not interfere in my revenge,” Thom continued. “If you do not wish to be delivered to the same hell, then stay away.”

He raised his hand and lightly tapped Benny’s chest—a touch that should have been simple, yet felt like a heavy and absolute warning. Benny froze, not daring to move, not daring to meet his gaze any longer.

“Just enjoy your life,” Thom said shortly.

After that, Thom straightened his suit and adjusted the collar of his shirt, as if he had just finished an ordinary business matter. Without looking back, he walked out of the headquarters room, leaving behind the lingering stench of gunpowder, blood, and fear hanging thick in the air.

Outside the building, ten men dressed in black long-sleeved sweaters and jeans were already waiting in neat formation. Two black cars were parked side by side, their engines humming softly. The moment Thom appeared, they all lowered their heads. At the front stood Red Dragon, a tall figure with sharp eyes filled with respect.

“The mission is complete,” Thom said as he walked toward the black Bentley parked at the very front. “We’re going home.”

Without hesitation, Red Dragon followed behind him. The other men moved at once—some opening car doors, others taking their positions. There were no questions, no further orders—only absolute obedience.

The first act of revenge had been paid in full… even though Thom knew this was only the beginning of unveiling the true masterminds behind it all.
