Oliver turned to Ynes, his eyes filled with concern. "Is there anything else, Ynes?" he asked, his voice gentle yet determined.Ynes nodded, her voice filled with worry. "Yes, Oliver. I'm also concerned about my bodyguard, Ryker. I fear he may be in danger."After she asked Ryker not to follow him to Taylor's mansion, she was locked, and since then they had not made any contact. Ryker was Ynes's personal hired bodyguard, so she cared a lot about him.Oliver's face hardened, and he swiftly turned his gaze to Marcus, Ynes's uncle. His voice grew fierce as he demanded answers. "Where is Ryker?" he demanded, his tone laced with an unmistakable sense of urgency.Marcus visibly gulped, his hand trembling as he nervously wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Ryker... Ryker has been locked up at the Larkin family mansion," he stammered, his voice barely above a whisper.A flash of anger crossed Oliver's eyes as he processed the information. He knew immediate action was required to secure Ryker's

"What, kill him?" Jace opened his mouth wide in shock."I tried killing him the other time, and it landed me in trouble, so how can you do that?" Jace asked."That shouldn't be your problem; yours is to take us there." The black-suited man replied.Meanwhile, Oliver was in the hotel when Alice walked into the room."Master, we have been monitoring the airport since that time you threw the challenge to Vespera, but there's no sign of her in any of the planes that have entered Boston." She said. "Could it be that she wouldn't come today because they are preparing something bigger?" She askedOliver shook his head and said, "That shouldn't be a problem; since she's a high assassin and might not want her identity to be exposed, especially in this situation, she can use other means, even the sea." He replied."Damn, that's true; I should have monitored ships too."Oliver chuckled and said, "That shouldn't be a problem; just prepare. We're going to use the black hawker, so make all the prepa

Oliver, who was watching the scene, was impressed by Alice's skills. Vespera raised her head, staring at Alice in shock. Who would have expected that she would meet a formidable opponent?Not wanting to disgrace herself, she quickly got back on her feet and dashed forward. To everyone's shock, Alice leaped in the air like a frog and kicked Vespera in the chest.BOOM!" The kick was very hard. Vespera stumbled backward, caught off guard by Alice's unexpected move. Alice took advantage of the opening and delivered a devastating kick to Vespera's knee, causing her to collapse to the ground in pain.WOW!" Everyone was amazed by Alice's skills. They all knew Vespera to be a skilled person, but who would have thought that she would be beaten by Alice?"Not bad, not bad." Vespera clapped. "Let's get into the real battle." She said."BOOM! BANG! BOOM!"Alice and Vespera continued to trade blows, each one more intense than the last. Alice was holding her own, but Vespera was beginning to gain th

"I'm very curious to see the face behind this skillful assassin." Oliver issued a command to one of his men to approach Vespera and remove her mask. "Take off her mask," he said with authority.Vespera's eyes widened in shock, and she quickly protested. "You don't dare! Even though you're strong, there are 100 men here with swords and guns. If they attack together, you'll all die!"Oliver laughed in response to Vespera's threat. "Even though I'm strong, you're right. There are 100 men here with swords and guns. But don't worry, I'll deal with them first before returning to you." Give me a few minutes to deal with them. I'll come back to you when I'm done," he said confidently.Vespera scoffed. "Do you really think you can take on all of them?"Oliver chuckled. "You underestimate me."Oliver turned to Alice and called out, "Alice, do you recall what I said when you warned me not to engage in a fight with Vespera?"Alice, who was on the floor, nodded and responded, "Yes, master. I remem

Alice and the men frowned, looking around in confusion. "Reporters? What do you mean, Master? We are the only people here; no one else," Alice said, breaking the silence.Oliver shook his head and pointed to the top of the mountain. "There are two people up there, a man and a woman. They have been recording everything. Go get them," he ordered.This announcement sent shockwaves through Alice and the rest of the men. They had been so focused on their mission that they had not noticed the reporters. Alice and two other men quickly made their way to the top of the mountain, their guns drawn.Vespera was also looking at Oliver with a shocked expression."How did he know that there were two people up there?" She thought.It was as if Oliver had heard her thoughts. He turned to her and said, "Stop wondering how I know; you're not skilled like I am."Mike and Jane, the reporters, who were hiding behind a rock on the mountaintop, heard Oliver's command, and their faces were filled with shock
