*****

Bars are known for their constant noise, especially at night during operating hours, but right now, the entire bar is eerily silent with everyone within staring blankly as though they were seeing the most disbelieving thing in history, particularly the ones who knew the reputation of the two Lion Kings.

This silence lasted for a long time before eventually, the Lion King, whose leg was being held by Xavier returned to his senses and became deeply embarrassed which promptly changed to an incredible rage.

“Bastard! Let go of my leg!” He snapped ferociously, trying to force away his leg from Xavier’s lazy grasp. Yet, for some reason, he wasn’t able to move it an inch—It was as though the leg was being held by the large hand of a deity and not the seemingly weak Xavier.

“Are you deaf? I say let go of my leg!” He barked and Xavier instantly smiled slightly before nodding his head.

“Sure,” he responded before continuing just as the Lion King was about to heave a sigh of relief. “I will just repay you with what you wanted to do to me.”

“This!” Everyone gasped and saw something flash in their eyes before they could think, after which, a shrill scream that sounded as though someone was being butchered echoed.

Subsequently, Xavier let go of his hand and the Lion King was sent ricocheting away halfway across the bar.

“Ah!!!!!!” He wailed like someone whose skin was being torn away from his body, making everyone feel their hair standing at the end while wondering about what had just happened.

They all turn into statues in an instant which lasts for a moment before the first Lion King forces himself to return to his senses.

“Third—third brother! What’s with your cry?” He asked with fear before rushing toward his brother.

“Aren’t you embarrassing yourself too much? Yelling this loudly and painfully merely because a tiny ant that could easily be squashed to death with my fingers hurled you away?” He complained with dissatisfaction before bending over to help his brother up.

The following second, however, he paused slightly before his eyes widened significantly, after which a strong shill ran down his spine.

“What-“ his mouth hung open as he subconsciously moved his hand toward his brother’s crotch area.

“What’s—what’s blood doing here?” he inquired incredulously and then pressed down with his hand.

“Rahhhhhhh!!!!” The second Lion King’s roar intensified as if he were experiencing the most excruciating pain imaginable, and soon after, he fainted.

The bar became pin-drop silent after this until; “He wanted to castrate me, but I castrated him instead. That’s fair, no?” A calm and lazy voice inquired, making everyone shiver frantically with goosebumps crawling hysterically all over their skin, then they glanced at the speaker.

“He—he crippled the lion king?” Someone swallowed hard and mumbled doubtfully.

Just then, the first Lion King returned to his senses and he screamed. “How dare you castrate my brother?!”

“I’m going to kill you!!!” His voice filled to the brim with killing intent scaring everyone in the bar out of their wits.

“The Lion King is finally mad,” someone mumbled and ran toward the bar’s exit without hesitation, looking terrified to the core.

“Probably all the eyewitnesses here tonight are done for!” Another person mumbled fearfully as he also ran for his li…

Everyone, knowing how unreasonable the Lion Kings normally are quickly ran for their lives, and before long, only Xavier, the fainted Lion King, the first Lion King who had turned into a raging bull, the dumbstruck bartender, and a horrified Grace were left behind.

“Die!!!!” The First Lion King roared with rage and closed in on Xavier, throwing his tightly clenched fist at his face with all the strength he could muster.

Watching this scene, the hearts of the bartender and Grace trembled, knowing that there was no way Xavier would be able to dodge or survive the attack.

Although they weren’t the ones receiving it, they felt the strong force originating from it and trying to destroy them, making the two ladies shut their eyes just as the attack was an inch away from hitting Xavier’s face, unable to handle the scene that would follow.

They brace themselves, expecting a shrill scream, but then a deafening silence was what they heard, lasting for a long time until the ladies could no longer handle their confusion.

‘What happened?’ they thought and squinted open their eyes, wanting to sneak a peak at what had happened.

What came into their view the next second made their eyes widen in stupefaction.

“Am—am I dreaming?” The bartender mumbled to herself dumbly before quickly pinching her arm.

Having worked in the bar for a few years, she had long learned about the strength of the two Lion Kings, able to face the attacks of five able-bodied men without breaking a sweat, yet…

“You—you—you…” the Lion King, who had attacked Xavier with madness and hatred earlier finally returned to his senses and stuttered as he eventually experienced what his brother had gone through a moment ago and to say he was terrified right now was nothing but an understatement.

He had never thought the seemingly weak Xavier who looked like someone he could pinch to death with his fingers would be able to stop his punch with just a single hand.

He thought he was dreaming as he stared at Xavier casually holding his arm that was tightly bulging with his thick veins from exerting all his strength.

“You—you—who… who are you?” He finally completed and Xavier, staring composedly at him sighed.

“I didn’t want any trouble; I just wanted to prevent you from committing an immoral deed while enjoying my peace. Why did you and your brother have to push my hand?” he asked helplessly, leaving the Lion King and the bartender stunned.

‘You didn’t want trouble and yet you interfered in our business, even castrating my brother! What nonsense was that?!’ He yelled in his mind, almost sobbing, but dared not to speak out.

“Plea—please forgive me, master. I—I was just too blind to see the elephant in the room! Please forgive me!”

The bartender, “_”

‘Is this still the First of the two shameless and evil self-acclaimed Lion kings?’ She thought blankly before hurriedly glancing back at Xavier.

Her heart began to pound frantically in her chest and she became filled with curiosity for him, meanwhile, Xavier, not realizing what he had caused to the bartender suddenly gazed seriously at the Lion King.

Given how you and that fool behaved today and the things I learned, you two love getting ladies drunk so that you can have your ways with them, no?”

“I—I… “ The Lion King became further terrified.

If those who had run for their lives out of fear were to witness this scene, they would have been stunned to death, but since no one was there, they couldn’t have in their entire lives imagined what had transpired after they escaped.

“I—tonight was our first time and I have never had the intention of forcing myself on anybody,” the lion king sobbed, regretting why he and his brother hadn't ignored or begged Xavier to mind his business earlier.

“Please forgive me!” He pleaded desperately, wishing nothing but to escape right now.

Xavier watched the horrified Lion King without reacting for a moment, while the two ladies stared at him, waiting to see what he would do. Eventually, he sighed deeply.

“As I mentioned earlier, I only wanted to have some drink in peace.”

    *****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

    *****For a long moment that felt like forever, it was as if time itself had frozen.No one dared to speak. 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? If

    *****( 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
