if they were beautiful ladies, I'd gladly let myself be captured by them

The door to the meeting room was pushed open and Baby strolled leisurely into the meeting room as if he was walking into his house, he scanned around with a disdainful smirk on his face. Ryan followed him closely, even when he knew that everyone in the hall want to tear them apart, he still wore an annoying smile because no matter how they glare at them they still couldn't do anything to them.

Baby took his seat while Ryan's sat beside him.

"You are thirty five minutes late." Xander said as he stared at Baby.

Baby looked at him with amusement, looking closely, he's quite identical to Richard smith. "Kiddo why don't you leave that to your elders." He dipped his hands into his pocket, "have a candy and relax." Giving him a be good, this big brother here is being kind.

Xander looked at his palm then back at him, his lips involuntarily twitched. He snorted and looked away.

Baby unwrapped the candy and put it in his mouth, "fine, if you don't want, this big brother here will lick it instead."

Xander looked at this shameless person in front of him, why does he look like he's doing me some type of favor by licking the candy. I've heard about how shameless he is but I didn't know he could be this shameless.

.....

Baby was already getting bored, 'why hiding your motives behind a very long meeting, you want me to attack first right? Fine I will.'

Ryan kept quiet, only talking when necessary. 'Why do they all have problems with the tribute they pay to our gang?'

Baby suddenly flicked his hand two darts flew towards the person that just spoke, the darts pierced through his throat. "Who are you to bargain with me, when I say you pay twenty percent, twenty percent it is." The hall became silent, one second passed, five seconds passed and then "BANG!" a loud thud was heard.

Ryan sighed heavily, 'in the end, not everyone is as lucky as Second Elder, that old man is used to boss's sneak attacks.'

Xander flinched, even though he was used to people dying it still came suddenly. He's dead, just like that, he's really as scary as I've heard.

Baby glanced at Xander, "are you alright? If you're not, you can go home before things get messy."

Xander regained his composure, shook his head, "I'm fine, but what do you mean by messy."

Baby smirked, "you'd find out soon."

"I just remembered I have something to do, I'd get going." A man said and stood.

"Yeah, me too my wife is pregnant and today is her delivery date I have to get going."

"my mum just called, she had a minor accident I have to go to the hospital."

Everyone left one after another, leaving only Ryan, Xander, baby and the dead man Joel.

Xander, "can someone explain what is going on? Is the meeting over."

Ryan, "you still don't get it? Things already went south, do you know the person he killed? he's the son of Lincoln. His father will be here soon, news like this travels fast."

Xander, "then what are you guys waiting for? Why aren't you leaving?"

Baby turned to him, "little brother, are you worried, you suddenly don't want this big brother to die?"

Xander, "that's not it, it's just that a normal human should have fled by now, you know that danger is approaching you but you still sat down."

Baby looked at him, the corner of his lips lifted, "does that mean you are not normal? Little brother, it is already too late. Greet your dad and mum when you get to the afterlife."

The hair behind xander's neck stood, why does the sentence sound like 'say your last prayer?'

Ryan just shook his head, "boss this isn't the time to joke around, why did you suddenly instruct our men not to move?"

Baby clicked his tongue "I understand what you're trying to say, the more the merrier right?"

The door to the meeting room was kicked open and a man in his sixties rushed in "son!!" He screamed.

He glared at Baby with a blood shot eyes. "You actually killed my only son."

Baby pouted and looked around as if he doesn't understand what he was saying, "we meet again Lincoln."

Lincoln's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, "we meet again Lincoln? How daring of you, you actually dared to kill my son, then I'll use your blood to appease his soul."

Baby face showed a hint of mockery, "if my blood can appease his soul, then I don't mind leaving my blood, how many pints do you need?"

Ryan wanted to laugh and cry at the same time, 'why do you have to infuriate him further? he was meant to give us a quick death, but now I guess he'd slowly torture us till we beg for death.'

Baby, "you actually can't blame me, he annoyed me first and you know I can't control my anger, it was all an accident. He's there you can ask him I really didn't mean it." He said trying to explain. He covered his mouth with his palm, "oops, I forgot that the dead can't speak. Then I'll speak for him instead. Dad my friend is right, it was all an accident. I was partly at fault for what happened, I shouldn't have said something to infuriate him." He said mimicking Joel Lincoln's voice.

Ryan stared at baby, 'Boss is so childish.'

Lincoln's body shook in anger, he pointed his index finger at Baby, "I'd sacrifice you head and your limbs to my dead son."

Baby laughed hysterically and stood up, "Lincoln oh Lincoln, you never learn your lesson."

"Take your son with you and scram before I change my mind." His aura already changed from the playful and childish vibe it was giving to a cold and grim aura. An evil smile dancing at the tip of his lips.

Lincoln's heart trembled, his intuition told him to leave but he still stood there, if he starts a fight right now, it will be favourable to him, moreover he can't let his plans of attacking baby today go unaccomplished, if the word gets out, he'd surely lose his face.

"You'll die in my my hands today. Attack!!" Those standing behind him waiting for orders attacked.

Baby left them to Ryan, held xander's hand and suddenly appeared in front of Lincoln,

Xander's lips formed an O shape, "incredible speed, I've also heard of that. The Leader of Shadow Of Heaven gang is really impressive."

"Lincoln, I gave you the chance but you still chose death anyway." Baby said and kicked Lincoln. Still holding Xander he walked forward.

"Big brother, how about you let go of my hand first?" Xander said trying to remove his hand from baby's grip.

Baby raised his brows, did he just call me big brother? this little brother is really smart, I like it. "little brother I also wish to but I can't, if anything happens to you, your god father isn't to be trifled with, I guess your sister isn't also. Your brother will curse my generation and your future brother-in-law won't let me off easily."

Xander creased his brows and pursed lips "do you perhaps know my family?"

Baby smiled, I've been waiting for that question since "Of course I do, isn't your father Smith? he's an old friend of mine. Oh! and Luciana your sister she was very naughty back then, Richard is now a mischievous kid." He shook his head and sighed, "too bad, good days never last, Smith left us too soon."

Xander stared at him looking frustrated and angry, "do you think it's funny? I would have believed you if you said you were Luciana's friend but my dad's friend? How old were you when he died?"

Baby, "haven't you heard about me? I drink women's blood to keep my youth, I'm actually two generations away from your father."

Xander, "who'd believe that crap? but I'm actually curious about the face under that mask. I heard you're very ugly that's why you wear mask everytime and everyone who had seen your face had difficulty in sleeping at night. oh! they also use you to threaten those poor kids in our gang." Richard smiled and continued "when I was seven my sister once showed me a picture of yours to scare me, I was so scared that I dreamt about you for three consecutive nights."

Baby looked down at Xander, his eyes gentler ' little brother is a little bit talkative, it must be because he doesn't have friends to share it with. little brother must have suffered in this past years.'

Lincoln who already turned into the background coughed up blood, no one has ever treated him with such disrespect.

baby looked at Lincoln's direction and remembered he still had someone to deal with. He stood in front of Lincoln and placed his foot on his chest and applied some force to it breaking his ribs. "You wanted to attack me with those few men? I literally overestimated the king of the underworld."

Lincoln's face twisted in pain, "don't be too arrogant if I die here today, you also won't leave here alive."

Baby scoffed, "boring, since I'd die, I don't have to keep you alive then." He stepped on his hand. "This is for my girls you messed with at my gangs female branch." The sound of bone breaking was heard.

Xander, "I also heard that you have a vengeful spirit, if we talk about you at night, you'd hunt us in our dreams."

Baby glanced at him, 'when did I turn to such a scary fairytale? hunt kids in their dreams?' "little brother, who told you such things."

Ryan slit the throat of the last person he was fighting and said, "I guess he's a fan of yours, he's been praising you."

Xander, "he's right I'm actually a fan, can I get your autograph? I'll flaunt it to those kids that I have the Devil Boss autograph."

Baby, "Devil Boss? me?"

Xander looked at him confused, "aren't you the Devil Boss? I've read your book to volume 12. I've always wanted to meet you."

Ryan tried his best not to laugh "Boss, you're really lucky, his brother is also a fan of yours."

Baby glared at Ryan, "who wrote such stuffs?"

Xander, "oh! yeah! my sister is the author."

Baby, "little brother, tell me, have I offended your sister in anyway?"

Ryan asked, "by saying your sister, do you mean your godfather's daughter, that psychopath Davi?"

Xander frowned touching the whip he hung on his face slightly, "Davi isn't a psychopath."

Ryan moved back subconsciously, "then what normal human will scare a kids with an ugly picture of a mafia lord. she had clearly seen boss's face but couldn't accept it and decided to draw ugly pictures of him and even wrote a horror novel about him."

Baby, "who are you guys talking about?"

Ryan, "of course you won't remember her, have you forgotten that you once went to HHG, carried a thirteen years old girl, spanked her ass in front of so many people and told her father that if he can't discipline her, you will."

baby nodded and remembered that such thing happened indeed. 'so that little girl is Davi.' "little brother, how about you tell me more about your sister after we deal with this dog."

the dog glared at them, ' you just remembered I exist, such disrespectful thing can only be done by two brats."

"Ryan, tell me how I should deal with this old friend of mine? Should I break all his limbs then throw him into the dungeon? I don't think so.. should I leave him in the darkest place in the headquarters, deprive him of water and sleep, feed him only bread let's see how long he can survive."

Ryan rolled his eyes, moved towards him "sorry old friend, when you see my grandmother tell her that her grandson is doing well, he became a Buddhist and he remembered all her teachings by heart good bye" He sunk the dagger he was holding into Lincoln's chest.

Baby looked disappointed as if he had been deprived of a plaything, "Boring." he said and yawned.

Ryan retrieved his dagger and wiped it with a white handkerchief. He sheathed his dagger walked out of the meeting room.

He paused and looked around. Baby smirked, "interesting, what are you hiding for? Come out." About twenty mercenaries rushed out.

Baby, "little brother, stay close don't move around."

Xander, "I just can't stand by and do nothing. God father didn't feed me just to stand by and do nothing."

Baby looked at him, "don't tell me you want to fight with this tiny body of yours."

Xander just ignored him and brought out the whip hanging on his waist, he whipped the ground which created a loud "crack" sound.

Baby moved back, I guess I'm not needed here, he went back to the meeting room and brought out a chair, he sat down and watched the fight with keen interest. "Too bad there are no snacks around."

Ryan rolled his eyes, "instead of complaining there, why don't you join us and end this quickly."

Baby rubbed his chin, "I don't want to, if they were beautiful ladies, I'd gladly let myself be captured by them, too bad they are either ugly or old men." He looked around, "take two steps backward, move to the side."

Xander followed his instruction and twirled, he wrapped his whip around the mercenary's leg and dragged him, the mercenary fell, he then wrapped the whip tightly around his neck.

Baby nodded and looked away. When Ryan was about to kill the last person, another twenty mercenaries emerged. Baby gasped "there's still more?"

Ryan, "don't pretend to be surprised, Just tell me how many mercenaries are here today."

Baby raised the five fingers on his left hand. Ryan smirked, "they really placed a great importance on us, they actually hired fifty well trained mercenaries to kill us?"
