Chapter 414
Elias slammed his fist against the armrest, frustration boiling over. “Rift and Sable… they escaped again! Unscathed, like always!”His outburst hung in the air, sharp and bitter.Lazarus Ortega, however, didn’t so much as twitch. Reclining lazily in his chair, he swirled the wine in his glass and spoke with unnerving calm.“Don’t trouble yourself. They’ve been a thorn for more than just you. They killed Black Monarch—one of my men. And worse, they dared to forbid anyone from running gray businesses in Ironvale City.” His eyes narrowed, the cold gleam within them betraying his fury. “That alone cost me millions. They’ve cut off my earnings, Elias. That is why I came here. My sole purpose this time… is to deal with them personally.”He took a slow sip of his wine, savoring it like a predator savoring blood.“My original plan,” Lazarus went on, his tone dripping with disdain, “was for Duvan to remove Rift and Sable for me. But he proved useless. A dog who barked too loudly and died too

After issuing his orders, Jaden turned to Kaelus. His tone was sharp, leaving no room for argument.“Make sure no word of my involvement leaks. Not a whisper. Not a shadow. Clean this up completely.”Kaelus bowed his head with grim determination. “Understood.”Without another glance, Jaden slid into a waiting vehicle. As the convoy carried him back toward Ironvale City, his expression was unreadable. Behind him, the battlefield was already being swept clean, erasing all traces of the slaughter. By the time the sun rose, the Duvan family would exist only as a whisper of history.…Moonlight Bay, Ironvale City.Out in the calm waters, a luxury yacht floated like a palace on the waves. Its decks glittered with expensive lanterns, the faint notes of live music drifting on the night air. Laughter and clinking glasses filled the atmosphere, the kind of decadence only the city’s most powerful could afford.At the center of it all sat Lazarus Ortega. Reclining comfortably with a glass of fine

What came next froze every last drop of blood in the Duvan men’s veins.From above, the steady whir of rotor blades thickened into a thunderous roar. Two armored helicopters cut through the night sky, searchlights blazing down like the judgment of heaven itself. Their mounted high-speed machine guns swiveled into place, locking onto Kent’s remaining men. The message was clear—if anyone so much as twitched toward a vehicle, they wouldn’t get ten meters before being turned into shredded meat.The ground rumbled again as one of the tank hatches creaked open. A colonel in full combat fatigues emerged, his face expressionless, every inch the hardened soldier. Pressing a hand to the wireless earpiece on his helmet, his voice boomed like iron.“Secure the area! Not even a bird is allowed to leave this place!”His order was like a war drum.Within seconds, over two thousand fully armed soldiers tightened their encirclement. Boots slammed into the dirt with machine-like precision, the sound re

Kent’s rage finally boiled over. With a snarl, he yanked the trigger.Click.Nothing.Jaden didn’t even flinch. He sneered, his voice sharp with contempt. “You’ve clearly never fired a gun in your life. The thumb safety’s still on. You don’t even know the basics—and yet you thought you could kill me?”The words struck deeper than any blade.Kent blinked, stunned. His eyes darted down to the pistol. Sure enough, the safety was still locked, and worse—he hadn’t even chambered a round. The realization sank like lead in his gut.He cursed himself, fury and shame burning his face. Then, unable to help himself, he cursed Jaden for pointing it out in front of his men.Jaden’s gaze sharpened, cutting through him like ice. “If you were trying to make yourself look like a fool, congratulations. You’ve succeeded. But don’t worry—I’ll let my men teach you the proper way to handle a weapon.”With deliberate calm, Jaden raised his right hand, curling his fingers into a fist. It was the simplest ges

The next instant, Blaze and Frozon lunged forward like twin shadows, their movements a blur. One curved left, the other right, their footsteps light as ghosts as they came at Jaden in a perfect pincer. Their speed was terrifying. To the untrained eye, they would have vanished altogether.Gasps rose from Kent’s men. Everyone knew what happened when these two moved together—death.But Jaden didn’t so much as flinch.He let out a low, mocking snort. “Amateurs.”In the blink of an eye, his legs snapped up. Two sharp kicks shot out like lightning, faster than anyone could follow.THUD! THUD!The sound rang out like thunder. Blaze and Frozon’s chests caved under the impact, their bodies jerking mid-air before they were hurled backward as if struck by a wrecking ball. Blood sprayed from their mouths in thick arcs, their eyes rolling white as life fled them instantly.They slammed into the dirt at Kent’s feet, limbs sprawled awkwardly. Their throats gave one final rattle, blood pooling beneat

Although the men wore nothing more than casual clothes, the aura they carried was anything but ordinary. Each one moved with the quiet confidence of seasoned killers, their gazes sharp, their presence suffocating. Anyone with half a brain could see that this was no group of ordinary thugs—this was a death squad.The head of the Duvan family, Kent Duvan, stepped forward, his voice booming with arrogance.“Rift, Sable… have you already resigned yourselves to death? Why else would you walk right into my hands? Very well! Since you’re so eager, I’ll give you a chance. End yourselves now and spare me the trouble.”Jaden, known to most as Rift, stood calmly with his hands clasped behind his back. He had stopped Kent here on the outskirts of Ironvale City for one reason only—to keep blood from spilling near his family. He hadn’t wanted his home tainted by the stench of slaughter.And yet, this arrogant fool thought he had come here to die?Jaden’s eyes narrowed, his tone cold and measured. “
