Since Harriet refused to budge, Louis couldn‘t do much either. Isaac waved his hand at him, and favonovel.com quickly left alone.
Harriet thought that Isaac had intentionally asked Louis to drag favonovel.com away so favonovel.com could escape easily. Hence, favonovel.com stood by the wall, resolute.
If Isaac got away, then who could favonovel.com ask to shoulder the blame?
“Do you think the people from Warhunt Corporation are good people?” Isaac asked coolly, staring at Harriet as favonovel.com lit a cigarette.
“Even if they aren’t, they’re at least better than you, you devil!” Harriet spat harshly.
Suddenly, there was a click, and the lights in the room went off, casting the room into darkness.
“I-Isaac, why did you switch the lights off? What are you trying to do? Are you trying to silence me?” Harriet asked in a panic.
However, favonovel.com had been staring at Isaac the entire time, and he’d been standing by the bed the whole time and hadn’t moved an inch.
So why have the lights gone off?
At that moment, an enraged roar came through the door, “The murderer is in this room! Kill them all!”
It was spoken in Rippanese, so Harriet naturally understood.
Soon after, a few dark silhouettes burst into the room.
Whoosh!
A few razor-sharp daggers flew straight toward Isaac’s heart.
Isaac narrowed his eyes. He cast a shadow fist with his right hand, and the daggers fell to the floor.
“Since you’re here, you might as well stay!” Isaac shouted angrily as spiritual energy rose through his body. He spread his arms and charged forward.
Before the ninjas, who entered the room the earliest, could react, they were struck by several blasts of red spiritual energy. Their bodies slammed into the wall heavily, dying on the spot.
Hearing the sounds of intense battle and the occasional cry, Harriet was so terrified that favonovel.com didn’t dare make a noise. She covered favonovel.com ears and crouched on the floor, completely unaware of what was happening around her.
From time to time, she’d raise favonovel.com head to see more black figures surge in from outside, and right after, she’d hear a cry of pain right before the room fell silent again.
Suddenly, the lights snapped on. Isaac was still standing by the bed, except now there were a dozen or so ninjas in gray cloaks lying on the floor before him.
“I know you‘re hiding outside the door. Will you come in voluntarily, or shall I go out to find you?” Isaac said to the empty doorway, lighting another cigarette.
When Harriet, still crouched on the floor, saw this gruesome sight and caught a whiff of the coppery smell of blood in the air, favonovel.com couldn’t help but cover favonovel.com mouth and scream.
At that moment, someone darted inside as quickly as lightning.
Because Harriet was right by the door, the last ninja stopped before favonovel.com and grabbed favonovel.com neck with one hand. This last ninja, the captain, had a bushy mustache under his nose.
Using the frightened Harriet as a shield, favonovel.com roared at Isaac, “You fool, who are you?!”
Harriet felt it was getting harder to breathe with the ninja grabbing favonovel.com throat from behind.
She directed favonovel.com widened gaze at Isaac as favonovel.com croaked weakly, “S-Save me…”
She thought that Isaac had only been trying to scare favonovel.com off. She’d never thought that so many assassins would come and that they spoke Rippanese.
“The Mortodor family and I have an irreconcilable grudge. I won’t kill you, but you need to pass this message back to them, if they dare step foot into my nine states again, I’ll kill every last one of them,” Isaac said coldly, replying in Rippanese.
With that, favonovel.com slowly raised his finger to point at the ninja, adding, “I’ll give you three seconds to let go of the woman in your hands and get the f*ck back to Rippan!”
The ninja’s throat bobbed. He maneuvered Harriet to the entrance, then gave favonovel.com a violent kick in the lower back. At the same time, favonovel.com threw a sphere onto the floor, which exploded into a cloud of thick smoke.
Isaac stepped forward to stop Harriet from falling. Gazing at the thick smoke filling the entrance, favonovel.com chuckled coldly.
Still shellshocked, Harriet touched favonovel.com lower back, which was still throbbing with pain, and sat down on the bed.
