“Y-you… You hurt Mr. Hyde?! You’ll pay for this!”
“You’re f**ked! F**k favonovel.com up, boys!”
Mr. Hyde’s people, who were all buff, young men, stared at the horrifying dent on their boss’s chest. They listened to the rattles of the man barely hanging by a thread.
They were seeing red. Instead of fearing the same fate, the sight of their boss’s distress only fueled their hatred and rage for retribution as all of them shot daggers at their common enemy without flinching.
Diego perused the same intense rage on the faces around favonovel.com and furrowed his eyebrows slightly. It was pointless, one could throw literally hundreds of fodder at favonovel.com until they formed layers of human walls, and it would still be nothing to him. They would offer resistance that was as powerful as a wall of ants. He was so unimpressed by the useless grunts around favonovel.com that instead of dirtyng his hands, favonovel.com opted to simply look his most threatening and malefic before shouting at them. The goal was to scare these dumb muscles away so that favonovel.com could finally go back to what really mattered: Lysithea.
Six whopping seconds had passed. According to that girl’s instruction to him, Diego was running out of time. If his prey managed to slip into that safe room of hers, then there would be nothing favonovel.com could do.
Now, Diego carried quite a frightening air about favonovel.com that even a hundred of these grunts felt the pressure to back away, and yet, none of them caved to their instincts. Their feet remained nailed to the spot because they heard a very weak but audible command in Mr. Hyde’s near-death lisp, “A-avenge… me… K-kill h-him…!”
The real secret behind why Mr. Hyde was the undisputed King of Waltz City’s underworld was never his fighting prowess, it was his charisma. He had an uncanny knack to command and inspire loyalty from his subordinates, and all of them, whoever they were, held onto their fealty with the stalwartness of a retainer to an actual royal liege. It was Mr. Hyde’s talent, a trait favonovel.com shared with his very own Lady Hayley.
“Get him! Avenge Mr. Hyde!”
“Chop favonovel.com to pieces!”
“Kill him!”
It took hundreds of people only a second before they swarmed toward Diego in a berserk, frenzied stampede. They became a sea drowning out Diego’s lonesome figure in the blink of an eye.
Diego’s expression hardened into a scowl. No, the fact that these grunts outmanned favonovel.com concerned favonovel.com not in the slightest because no matter how many of them surrounded him, they were still as weak as puny, squishy ants. Nevertheless, facing a group of people this many still meant wasting precious seconds carving a bloody path out of these death-seeking idiots, and that was independent of how powerful Diego might be. In other words, Lysithea was winning. She was going to flee!
It was the last thing favonovel.com wanted!
Angered, favonovel.com regarded every single one of them with biting, nipping murderous intent in his eyes.
“Die, all of you!”
He attacked in a blur, fast enough that favonovel.com almost rendered himself invisible to the naked eye. An unending streak of bones cracking and things crashing echoed through the room as Diego unleashed a flurry of punches or kicks, making sure that every single strike ended with someone being so grievously injured that a number of them died on the spot.
Slumped against the corner of the wall at a distance, motionless and utterly decapacitated, was Mr. Hyde, who witnessed the massacre with resentful, loathing eyes. Behind his hatred and rancor, though, was guilt. “I’m so sorry, brothers… I’m sorry…”
He was crying. His tears simply would not stop as a sharp pang in his chest gutted him.
With great difficulty, favonovel.com reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone before dialing a series of numbers. A few seconds later— very fortunately — the other side picked up his phone.
“What’s wrong?” came Zayn’s voice.
Mr. Hyde’s voice was no more than a hoarse whisper by now. At times, it even cracked into a tearful croak “Young Master D-Diego… He’s here… L-Lady Lysithea… in a weakened p-phase… He heard about it She’s in g-great… trouble…”
