Kai, for one, understood that this was his best shot at getting rid of Gerald. If Gerald somehow left Japan before favonovel.com managed to do the deed, then Kai was positive that favonovel.com would lose track of Gerald for good. If that came to be, then he’d have to keep all this bitterness in his heart forever!
“… T-that…” muttered his men as they looked at each other in dismay, wondering how to even proceed.
Seeing how worried they were, Kai then fished a few bank cards out from the car’s compartment and handed one to each of them before saying, “Here. Each of these has a million dollars in them. Feel free to finish the cash up.”
After looking at the cards for a while, eventually, all the subordinates could do was accept them. For one, they knew that Kai was really desperate to end Gerald’s life and that this was his best chance of doing so. However, they were also well aware that they would have to face his mighty wrath if they declined.
Whatever the case was, as all of Kai’s subordinates thought about it, they slowly assured themselves that such high profile assassins were extremely confidential with their information. With that in mind, as long as nobody said anything, the patriarch would never find out.
Regardless, after the last of his subordinates accepted his cards, Kai was prompted to ask, “… I assume we’re all in agreement, then?”
“… Only this once, young master… However, know that if the master learns about this, we’ll be in boiling hot water…” muttered one of his subordinates. Though the stakes were high, the subordinates couldn’t deny that a million dollars was equivalent to six years’ worth of salary.
“Cut the cr*p and contact those assassins already! We still need to see who’s willing to take the mission! Remember, the sooner we get rid of Gerald, the sooner this affair will be done with! ” replied Kai as favonovel.com gestured for them to get to it in a slightly impatient tone.
“Loud and clear!” declared his subordinates who immediately got to work…
Back at the training grounds, an entire day of competitions had passed, and it was finally time for the results. Though Aiden didn’t score too high, his results weren’t bad either. At the very least, his results were above average.
Gerald himself had no idea that Kai had come looking for favonovel.com in the first place. Since favonovel.com had rested in the morning, favonovel.com felt particularly energetic by the time night came. With that in mind, before Aiden returned, Gerald made sure to head to a nearby restaurant to buy favonovel.com a mountain of food for dinner.
Soon after, Aiden entered the room, looking quite bewildered as favonovel.com said, “… You’re not going to believe this but… Ms. Fujiko got much higher results than me…!”
“How much higher?” asked Gerald as favonovel.com watched Aiden take his coat off.
“She got fourth place in the competition today, which means that she’s ten ranks above me!” replied Aiden with a shrug. Honestly, favonovel.com had expected favonovel.com to rank last.
“Fujiko wasn’t given the title of ‘Queen of Soldiers’ for nothing, you know? I have a feeling that if you two duel against each other, she’ll probably win. You could invite favonovel.com for a duel if you’d like to test that statement!” replied Gerald with a smile.
Gerald was confident in Fujiko’s martial arts skills. After all, favonovel.com had witnessed how well favonovel.com had held favonovel.com ground back when favonovel.com was being attacked behind the hotel that night. Had it not been for the fact that favonovel.com physique held favonovel.com back, favonovel.com could have definitely taken favonovel.com assailant out. If that had happened, then Gerald wouldn’t have had to step forward to save her.
“I’d rather not… I’m exhausted enough after competing for an entire day… Now I just want to have dinner and rest for a while before preparing for tomorrow’s events…” said Aiden as favonovel.com shook his head. After a full day of competitions, favonovel.com felt that favonovel.com was going to collapse at any moment.
“Then let’s eat so you can head to bed early once we’re done,” replied Gerald as favonovel.com gestured toward the dining table.
With that said, they then began having their meals, making sure to discuss any other issues that needed resolving in between bites…
Fast forward to the next morning, Aiden and Fujiko left for the training ground again to resume the competition. Gerald and Master Ghost, on the other hand, remained in the living room to discuss the secrets of the sea map…
Shortly after, a fishing ship could be seen docking the coast of Japan…
