Traitor

The boss turned around, seeing the man face down, his butt high in the air, foam coming out of his mouth.

"This?"

The boss turned around to Christopher, who stood still, his expression flat.

"This?! What level are you on?!!" he yelled.

"A mere elite thinking he could touch the sky; I'm really disappointed." Christopher moved his gaze over the men and settled it on the one known as the boss.

"I don't like trouble, but that doesn't mean I'm scared of it. I'll give you two options: first, tell me what you do for a living, apart from robbing people, and leave here alive. Your second option: don't tell me, and none of you will leave here alive."

"Hey, you!!!"

The boss stood up in rage, pointing his finger at Christopher.

"Do you think I'm scared of you?!! Venice, show yourself!!"

A red light flew out from the necklace on the man's neck and turned into a huge pig before them.

"....."

Christopher turned his head to the two girls, and the three instantly burst out laughing.

"Hahahahaha!!!"

"A pig!! I thought your beast would be a mighty animal; who would have thought it'd be a pig? An elite-stage beast with Level 3 combat strength... Hahaha!" Christopher laughed out loud.

"Are you looking down on my beast?!!" The boss yelled, his face filled with disdain.

Christopher stared at him with a cold gaze and walked toward the man and his beast.

"Yes, I'm looking down on you because you two are nothing but useless trash who only knows how to show your strength to the weak and run from the strong; just like a dog..."

"How dare you!! Attack!!"

The 19 men also summoned their beasts, and all shot toward Christopher.

"Venice!! Attack!"

The pig instantly shot forward.

"Kneel!!"

BOOM!!

A dense amount of killing intent burst out from him, enveloping all the beasts and their tamers... They all froze, staring at Christopher like he was a demon from hell. Unable to hold it in any longer, they dropped to their knees, trembling from head to toe.

"This? Just killing intent?! Who the hell are you?!" The boss, who was the only one still standing, yelled.

"I'm guessing you picked the second option," Christopher sighed:

"I really don't know why most people always choose death rather than life... Well, I can fulfill that."

"Huh?"

Before they could move, Christopher disappeared and appeared behind him.

"Such speed?!"

The boss turned around, only to see a straight kick heading toward his chest.

BAM!!

"Augh!!"

He threw up a mouthful of blood and flew some meters backward. The two girls made way for the boss, who moved past them and collapsed heavily on the ground.

"You!! Augh!!"

He threw up another mouthful of blood and remained silent, dead.

Christopher lowered his leg and turned to the kneeling men and beasts.

"What to do with you fools?" he asked, dusting the invisible sand on his clothes.

"Please... Please spare us!!"

"Yes! Please!!"

The men instantly started pleading and kowtowing, their faces filled with horror.

"Hmm... The first one who answers my question will be spared."

Hearing Christopher, a man opened his mouth but was punched in the face by another. Before the attacker could say anything, another punched him, and with that, the group entered a brawl.

Christopher and the two girls were stunned by their actions, watching as the 18 men fought one another for the chance to answer and live.

Christopher stood silently, watching the men who had resorted to killing one another for survival... Their beasts had also joined the brawl.

Christopher looked down at his watch, seeing it was close to 7 pm; he sighed softly.

"AHHH!!!"

BAM!!

The last man finally killed the others with a stone he picked up from the ground. He frantically moved his gaze around the place and shakily stood up, his face filled with blood.

"Finally, now tell me," Christopher said.

"The Golden Organization employed us; our task is to kidnap young girls and send them to them."

"Hmm... How many of you guys are out there?" he asked.

"Don't know the exact number, but I know we're above 1,000... Dealing with different sections; we deal with kidnapping; some deal with drugs and arms."

Christopher's face turned cold; the temperature instantly dropped.

'Golden Organization, I destroyed it the first time, and I can do it again. This time... I'll make sure you won't come back,' he thought and walked away.

The girls looked at the man and bodies all over the place and followed behind Christopher.

The man sighed in relief but was dumbfounded, seeing Lazarus and Lucas staring at him.

"Uh?"

Whoosh!!

"AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"

Advika and Sylvia turned around and were stunned, seeing Lucas burning the bodies with her fire skill.

"Uh?"

"..."

The two turned to Christopher, utterly shocked.

"Do you think I plan to leave anyone alive?" he asked, looking at them over his shoulder, his hazel eyes glowing red, then golden.

The two girls looked at one another and made up their minds on that spot, never to enter Christopher's dead list.

"Golden Organization, I don't know how, but they're in the city; we need to find their hideout and take them down."

The two girls looked at one another, and Sylvia opened her mouth:

"That isn't our job; it's for the government to handle."

"Don't you get it? They could only enter through sea, air, and land... Because of the monsters and beasts, Cordelia values its defense. So they can't sneak in."

"You're saying someone from the higher power helped them enter?" Advika asked in mild surprise.

"That's the only option. We have a traitor in our government or in the Tamer's Enterprise," he said with a dark expression, walking toward the gate some miles in front of them.

The two sisters slowly nodded, silently following behind him.

_____

[Cordelia's Northern Gate.]

"You heard the news, right?" A guard with a rifle in hand asked his comrade who stood beside him.

"Yeah, the eldest son of the Valhalla family is missing, but I think they found him."

"Yeah, the eldest is always running around without telling anyone... Don't you think he's irresponsible?" the first asked.

The soldier turned his head to the guy who asked the question:

"You are always at the border; let me tell you, there was an attack on the bridge, gunmen; they were chasing Master Christopher; that's why they're worried; not because he's irresponsible... He might be hiding from the gunmen."

"Oh?! That much happened?" The guy was stunned.

"Yeah."

The soldier turned to the border, seeing three figures walking toward the gate.

"Are those?"

"Wait a second, isn't that Master Christopher?!!"

The soldiers were stunned.
