*****

The entire bar fell silent, with everyone staring blankly at the lean person holding a hand that was twice the size of his own.

No one could react for a moment, but eventually, the eyes of the Lion King, whose hand Xavier was holding, darkened with wrath.

“Brat! Weren’t you the one I warned earlier to mind your business?” He snapped, his voice brimming with unhidden killing intent.

Xavier, however, wasn’t bothered. Instead, continued maintaining his composed demeanor.

“This lady here does not want to follow you, why are you forcing her?” He inquired calmly making everyone instant exchange stunned gazes.

“This—this fool!” The bartender, whose gaze hadn’t left Xavier since the beginning scoffed with frustration and then hurriedly left what she was doing to rush over.

“Lion King, hahahah. Please don’t mind this friend of mine. He appears to be too drunk to know what he was doing,” she stated with a smile, tearing Xavier’s hand away from the lion king.

The Lion King quickly cast a glance at the bartender and growled but then hesitated before snorting.

“I will let him go on your account then,” he said unhappily before sparing Xavier a dangerous glare and then ignoring him, casting his unhidden hungry-filled gaze back at the terrified beauty.

“You’ve caused enough scene here already, let’s get going now,” he said darkly and threateningly before looking at his brother.

“Let’s pick her up,” he said and the first lion king nodded his head, scaring Grace to the core.

Although she was completely drunk and her mind was no longer functioning properly, she instinctively shrank back when she realized what the two were planning, her heart pounding fiercely with fear.

Grace had heard many times from news about something like this happening, but she had never expected to encounter it the first time she decided to run away from her comfort zone and drown in her sorrow.

She looked around for help but saw none. Instead, a few people watched her with pity, while the majority laughed, cheered on the Lion King, and praised the spectacle as a display of beauty.

Just as Grace thought she was doomed, however, the composed voice she had heard earlier, which she thought was that of a savior sounded again.

“Did I tell you that you can go with her?”

The entire bar became eerie silent again, but it was soon broken and before long hushed voices filled the entire bar.

“Is this guy a fool or what?”

“Instead of being grateful for the Lion King’s forgiveness, he still chose to push your luck?”

“Given his weak physique, wasn't he even supposed to keep a low profile instead of provoking people who could end his with a single snap!”

Everyone mumbled and even the bartender, who had earlier pleaded on behalf of Xavier was stunned for a while before she sighed helplessly.

She looked back to the Lion King and wanted to beg them again, but before she could open her mouth, they had already addressed her.

“I listened to you earlier because of my respect and appreciation, but please, don’t try your luck too much,” they said in unison, their voices laced with an unmistakable menace.

The Bartender immediately sighed upon hearing them and then looked at Xavier helplessly.

Eventually, she shook her head and glanced back at the Two Lion Kings. “Please, for my sake, don’t give him a life-threatening injury.”

“That, we can do,” the two responded and looked back coldly at Xavier.

“Since you hate minding your goddamned business so much, get your ass over here and move this b!tch to our room for us!”

The second King, whose hand Xavier had earlier held growled and the bar became silent again with everyone staring at Xavier, wondering what he would do.

Contrary to their thoughts, however, Xavier, who had been calm all along did nothing.

He just continued standing and watching lazily, acting as though he didn't feel the alarming intent closing in on him.

“Bastard! Are you deaf?!” The voice of the second Lion King boomed, sending the hearts of the hearers banging against their chests, but still, Xavier did not react.

This finally infuriated the two Lion Kings to the extent that they felt like killing someone.

“Please forgive me,” the second Lion King said coldly to the bartender, then not waiting for a response stormed toward Xavier.

“What I hate the most is people interfering in my affairs, offending me, and disrespecting my order. For daring to do all those, I’m going to castrate you,” he said coldly, then not waiting for any reaction, delivered a powerful kick to Xavier’s crotch.

As soon as everyone saw this, their hearts skipped a beat, following which, their entire body went cold. They sighed deeply, suddenly feeling strong pity for Xavier.

“He could have minded your business but unfortunately chose not to..”

“This made me recall the last person who offended the Two Lion Kings. Hadn't he become a past today, yet, another little guy will join.”

“What a stupid hero. Wouldn’t he live the rest of your life in pain and regret now, knowing he could have easily refused to help the needy,” the crowd sighed one after the other.

Even Grace couldn’t help but be scared to death, watching what was going to happen.

She opened her mouth, wanting to plead for mercy for Xavier, knowing she would never forgive herself if Xavier ended up getting hurt because of her.

“Plea-“ she began to cry out when without any warning, her jaw dropped and her eyes constricted sharply.

It wasn’t only hers, but literally everyone in the bar.

If Xavier was like a thin pole, the Lion King attacking him would be a small mountain—muscular and imposing. Yet, at this moment, Xavier was casually holding his leg in his hand.

That’s right and just then, a calm and composed voice filled with disbelief sounded.

“You will castrate me just because I don’t want you to commit a wicked deed?”

    *****At this moment, the man who was speaking no longer resembled the calm, composed, mysterious force of chaos that had appeared earlier today. No, this man, the one they were looking at, was a lunatic high on his own sense of invincibility.Even Xavier was momentarily speechless.Then—“What, exactly, is so funny?” he repeated, his voice flatter than a blade.But before Bloodfang Viper could reply—“It’s because you’re terrified, and it’s showing.”A new voice rang out, sharp and mocking.Every head subconsciously whipped around.It was Morderk.He stepped forward boldly, the fear that had once dominated his features now completely replaced with sneering arrogance. His chest puffed, and his lips curled into a smug leer as though he had already claimed victory.He didn’t hesitate and didn’t falter. Instead, he strutted confidently toward the battlefield as if he owned it.“You thought you had the upper hand earlier, didn’t you?” he sneered. “So confident, so sure of your

    *****For a second, everyone froze in shock, unable to process the words they had just heard. But then…“This—”Gasps rang out, every eye widening.Even Morderk’s throat clicked as he swallowed.Mistress Ayra’s tone darkened further.“According to the intel gathered by my Nightshadow Force… this organization is composed solely of men who have completely lost their sanity. They have descended into a demonic state where empathy and reason no longer exist.”Her next words sent a fresh chill through every spine.“They’ll stop at nothing to complete a mission. Even if it means bombing an entire city of millions just to eliminate one target… they’ll do it. To them, collateral damage is meaningless.”Silence.Everyone was sweating now.A few took unconscious steps backward, while others clenched their arms, trying to stop the involuntary shivers.Mistress Ayra wasn’t done.“If you commission them for a kill, there’s no turning back. Even if you, the client, try to withdraw the m

No one even breathed too loudly.The crowd stood paralyzed, their minds still reeling from the nightmarish revelation that had just been revealed by the figure cloaked in shadow. It was as if Mistress Ayra’s words had cast a spell over the air—one that dragged everyone into a silent abyss of fear.Even Morderk, Bloodfang Viper’s ever-loyal, servant-like subordinate, appeared rattled beyond belief.His jaw was clenched tight, his pupils constricted. He had known his leader was part of something deadly… but this?This was the stuff of horror stories.He had never once imagined that the Bloodfang League was such a monstrous machine—an engine fueled by lunacy and vengeance, oiled with blood and fire.Across the courtyard, pulses raced wildly, and everyone’s thoughts fixated on one burning question:'If there were still fighters even more powerful than Bloodfang Viper… just

  • Chapter 564 – The Blood Echo Vow

    *****( Thanks for your patience! Here’s a bonus chapter for the update I missed. )….Still oblivious to the rising storm of admiration, Xavier gazed lazily at the shadowed figure in front of him.There was not a ripple of tension in his posture, not the slightest change in expression on his face.He looked at the hidden Mistress Ayra as if he were gazing at an overcast sky… unimpressed, unaffected, and completely relaxed.It wasn’t Xavier who was flustered.It was Bloodfang Viper and Mistress Ayra whose hearts were in disarray.Bloodfang Viper, despite his condition, was grappling with a bitter realization that was more painful than any wound he had suffered tonight.He was an A-rank fighter, feared across regions.He was madness incarnate, a man who didn’t even fear death.And yet… he hadn’t even sensed the presence of Mistress Ayra until she willingly revealed herself.How was that possible?Had she truly been there all along, silently observing, cloaked in shadow?

    *****( Thanks for your patience! Here’s a bonus chapter for the update I missed. )….Mistress Ayra’s heart nearly exploded in her chest upon hearing the sudden, calm, composed, and lazy word that had just sounded.The words didn’t come from her, no.They came from him… Xavier.It wasn’t only her who stiffened, the crowd joined her, and so did Mistress Ayra’s subordinates.“He… he knew Mistress Ayra was there all along?” one of the hidden Nightshadows’ agents whispered, his voice shaking.Another member added breathlessly, “That’s terrifying... If he noticed her, then...”Suddenly, dread rippled through the rest of the hidden agents. It was as though their cloak of shadows no longer mattered. Like they had been standing naked before Xavier the entire time.“Could he... Could he sense all of us, too?” another whispered, their words barely audible.“No way,” came the quick, hushed rebuttal. “We’re stationed too far from him. Even in daylight, this distance is too great—much
