Chapter 891
“I know. I simply have no interest in this sort of collective endeavor.”“Beasts of prey walk alone; only cattle and sheep move in herds.”“You didn’t take part either. In temperament, we are much the same—equally independent.”Mosang drew a deep breath before speaking.“You should leave. After decades as an assassin, you’ve earned more than you could ever spend.”“If I were you, I’d wash my hands of it all and go enjoy the comfort of family.”Joseph sheathed the military blade in his hand.“What did you say?”Mosang could scarcely believe his ears.“I said, you may go.”Joseph repeated himself.“Why? You won. You should kill me.”Mosang was utterly perplexed.“If this had been years ago, you would already be dead.”“But now, I have no desire to kill you. Leave while you can—if I change my mind, you won’t get the chance.”“I have a family. So do you. They must be waiting for you to return safely.”Joseph turned his back, his voice tinged with quiet reflection.Hearing this, Mosang—sti

At that very moment, Joseph gave the roof of the car a light tap and launched himself into the air.His gaze sharpened, locking onto the direction from which the disturbance had come.With a subtle shift of his footing, his figure blurred forward, racing toward the source of the sound.Using the surrounding trees for leverage and the height of his leaps, he moved swiftly through the forest canopy.As he pursued, he sensed something fleeing ahead of him—the rustling growing louder, more urgent.Soon, he caught sight of a dark silhouette darting through the trees.Joseph accelerated. He was faster—noticeably faster.The distance between them steadily narrowed.At last, the shadow halted in a clearing. Joseph descended lightly onto the open ground, standing opposite the figure.“Mosang. I knew I wouldn’t need to look for you—you would come to me.”A cold smile curved Joseph’s lips.“Autumnless. You vanished for years, and yet I still could not take your place. What a pity.”“It is the gr
Chapter 889
“I suspect reinforcements do exist. The reason they haven’t arrived after two or three days is simple—they’re still deciding how much they can siphon off.”“Supplies worth ten million? We’ll be lucky if a tenth of that actually reaches the front.”Neil Foster gave a bitter smile.“The Central Council is controlled by a handful of powerful families. They’ve never represented the nation’s interests—only their own.”“That’s why, when my master fought and bled on distant battlefields, he was ultimately framed and driven to his death. He was too upright—he despised those who sold out the country’s interests. And so they were eager to see him gone.”A cold smile touched Joseph’s lips.“The General will not have died in vain. Aren’t we still here? We will restore clarity and justice to Elysia.”Neil Foster’s gaze sharpened.“Well said.”Brian Adams nodded in agreement.“Young master, among the three top targets, we can track all except Mosang in real time.”“We can only approximate his locat

After leaving the house, Joseph drove straight to the Night Rose Nightclub.At present, the Night Rose Nightclub served as the de facto headquarters of Dragon Abyss.For the command center of the world’s largest assassin organization, it appeared almost modest—unremarkable, even shabby.Yet it was also the most discreet.After all, true concealment does not lie in isolation but in plain sight. Who would ever suspect that amid the neon lights, the music, and the endless tide of revelers, the nerve center of the world’s most formidable assassin network lay hidden?Around five in the afternoon, Joseph arrived. After parking in the underground garage, he entered the base through a concealed passage.By then, Neil Foster and Brian Adams had been occupied in the conference room for hours.As Joseph stepped inside, the meeting had just concluded, and the management personnel were filing out. Each paused to greet him respectfully.“Old Neil, it’s settled. I’ll take Mosang. The young master ca

“There are matters within our ranks that I cannot speak of lightly, lest I invite unnecessary trouble.”“But if possible, I would welcome the chance for us to understand one another better.”“Whatever kind of organization you are—whatever banner you serve—as long as our interests do not conflict, I, Clarence Bennett, am not an unreasonable man.”“Besides, your people are clearly formidable. They don’t strike me as petty criminals lurking in the shadows.”“You must have your own ideals, your own purpose—and I suspect neither is small.”Clarence Bennett spoke thoughtfully, his tone edged with speculation.“For now, I cannot reveal what we truly are.”“But I can assure you of this: my people will safeguard Nova City’s stability. We will not do anything that harms the city or its citizens.”Joseph’s reply was firm and unequivocal.“Good. With your word, Professor Wilson, I am at ease.”“When this storm in Nova City has passed, I will pay you a visit myself.”Hearing Joseph’s assurance, Cl

“Of course we kill them.”“These assassins are vicious. The last time they slipped into Nova City, quite a few civilians lost their lives.”“The bastards are madmen—madmen with terrifying strength.”“The surest way to keep Nova City stable and prevent any leaks is to send every last one of those sons of bitches straight to hell.”Old Ortiz spoke with righteous fury.“Old Ortiz is right.”“Our strength alone is nowhere near enough.”“It wasn’t enough last time, and it certainly won’t be enough now.”“This time, our mission remains the same—to coordinate with the Nova City police.”“But there’s a difference. We’ll also need to work alongside another group.”“Only with all three parties acting in concert can Nova City survive this crisis.”“As for who this other group is—I don’t need to spell it out. You already know.”Clarence Bennett spoke pointedly.“Working with another group isn’t the issue.”“The issue is, old Bennett, how can you be sure they’ll act?”“We can’t base our battle pla
