Chapter 1366 – Lucius’s Realization III
*****Back then, Lucius had greatly looked down on Xavier, seeing him as nothing more than a lazy, arrogant man who avoided effort like it carried a contagious disease.Although he had been loyal to Lucius at the time, Hunter especially despised how powerless Xavier seemed when it came to protecting Grace from someone like him.At that time, Hunter had believed that if Xavier had cared enough to build strength, influence, or even a shred of dignity for himself, Grace’s family would never have reached the point of practically offering her to Lucius like a sacrificial pawn.And Lucius…That disgusting madman would never have dared to push Grace to such an extent.Thinking back now, Hunter suddenly felt like slapping his past self repeatedly across the face.Just then, one particular memory surfaced sharply in his mind. The day he was sent to eliminate Xavier.(Reference: Chapter 294)Back then, he hadn’t hidden his contempt even in the slightest bit.He had practically shoved it into Xa
Chapter 1365 – Lucius’s Realization II
*****The reason Lucius hadn’t immediately remembered the guild earlier was that he had only heard about it once before.But the only reason he managed to remember was that the single incident had left a deep impression on him.Back then, Lucius and the Scoan patriarch had encountered a troublesome enemy they desperately wanted removed. Someone they absolutely couldn’t stand.But the problem was… that person belonged to a second-rank upper family.Meanwhile, the Scoans were merely a second-rank lower family.If they acted carelessly and got exposed, the consequences would be catastrophic.So for the first time ever, Lucius and his father didn’t send Hunter or any of their trusted subordinates.Instead…They contacted the Nightshadow Guild to do the dirty work for them.Back then, due to Hunter’s intense curiosity, he had asked about this guild, wondering whether they would truly dare to accept such a mission, and the response he got… Both Lucius and his father had scoffed at him immed
Chapter 1364 – Lucius’s Realization
*****“Are you interested in joining my Nightshadow Guild?”Mistress Ayra suddenly uttered, her voice neither loud nor aggressive.Yet the instant those words entered Hunter’s ears, his entire body trembled violently, his expression changing so drastically that it looked as though someone had poured a bucket of icy water directly down his spine.‘So terrifying,’ he thought instinctively, his heartbeat thundering wildly inside his chest as he stared at Mistress Ayra.The change around her was simply too overwhelming.Just moments ago, this same woman had been shamelessly circling Xavier like an obsessive fangirl who had finally reunited with her idol after years apart, her eyes sparkling so brightly that Hunter had genuinely wondered if she was one step away from barking.But now?It felt as though that harmless, flirtatious beauty had vanished completely, and in her place sat a cold, terrifying existence whose mere gaze seemed capable of freezing blood.The pressure radiating from her
Chapter 1363 – Hunter’s Fright
*****Hearing Mistress Ayra, Xavier instantly face-smacked himself and stared at Mistress Ayra with tired eyes.“I can stand,” he muttered weakly.“No way, sir patriarch,” Mistress Ayra rejected instantly, her response so fast and firm that Xavier paused for a second.Then she gestured toward the throne again, her eyes practically sparkling. “Sir Patriarch’s dignity must be maintained.”Silence, “_”Xavier stared at Mistress Ayra for a moment, but Mistress Ayra didn’t back down once.And with this… he realized that the woman was not about to let this go.If he refused, she would probably continue standing there respectfully and trying to convince him for the next three hours until he sat down.And honestly… that sounded far too exhausting.So in the end, he could only sigh helplessly before dragging his feet toward the podium like a man walking toward his own public execution.Then he lazily propped his butt down onto the throne.At that sight, Mistress Ayra’s eyes lit up so brightly
Chapter 1362 – Hunter's Shock
*****The wall suddenly shifted, and instantly… a hidden passage opened up.Hunter nearly jumped out of his skin at this sight.“This…!” His eyes widened violently. ‘A secret passage?!’His heart immediately pounded harder, and just like that, his expectations exploded upward once again.‘Finally!’ he exclaimed internally. ‘Now things were beginning to resemble the terrifying hidden world I had imagined earlier.’Hunter hurriedly composed himself before quickly following behind the two of them into the passageway.The deeper they walked, the stranger the atmosphere became.Before long, the air grew colder, the surroundings darkened, and the silence became increasingly oppressive until, eventually… they arrived.And the moment Hunter saw the room ahead, every ounce of calm he had painstakingly maintained shattered instantly.His eyes widened, his breathing paused, and goosebumps erupted across his entire body uncontrollably.The chamber he was currently inside resembled something strai
Chapter 1361 – Hunter's Skepticism
*****Hunter stared at Xavier for a brief moment, not reacting at all.Then his gaze turned to Mistress Ayra, who was now calmly studying him with a completely expressionless face.Then back at Xavier again.Then back at Mistress Ayra.Then Xavier.Then Ayra.Then Xavier again.By the fifth round, even Xavier began to wonder whether the man’s neck was about to develop permanent damage.Ultimately, however, Hunter could no longer suppress the thoughts rampaging wildly through his mind.“Uhm… boss,” he blurted carefully at last, sounding like a man trying not to offend a dangerous lunatic. “I want to learn how to become stronger… not how to mix cocktails.”Xavier, “_”Mistress Ayra, “_”For one solid second, silence swallowed the room, then both Xavier and Ayra slowly turned toward him simultaneously.The synchronized movement alone nearly made Hunter’s scalp tingle.After that, the two exchanged gazes before both looking away again, seemingly unsure whether they should laugh or cry.Xa
