Chapter 183: A Nasty feeling

After roaring, eyes full of madness, Damien calmed down. Sitting on the ground he started pondering.

''What happened?'' 

''Alex's master must be protecting him, it's why this happened. It was an unwise move I shouldn't have ordered grampa Stone and others to do that. Sigh! There is no need to cry over spilled milk. What I need to do now it's to deal with Alex.'' 

Damien said, his eyes were vicious. None of the men he sent to monitor returned alive, well, Stone returned but he just said few words before passing away. He must make Alex pay. 

For a moment he considered summoning Slade over, but decided not to, at least for the moment. 

''I should be able to take care of Alex myself,''

he mumbled before ordering his men to incinerate Stone's body and kept the inside an urn to bring it back to the empire. 

Today lost must be repaid.
