“You want to take the herb from HIM?” Ilene snorted. “He’s been gone for three years. Do you know what he’s been doing? Or how strong he has gotten?”Tyron frowned. “I’ve become a lot stronger in these past three years.”“You climbed from the eighth to sixth rank in these three years, but the records still speak for themselves. Denver still holds many unbroken records, so be smart,” Ilene got up from her seat.Half a dozen women bodyguards were next to her, standing in different lines.“Since Denver didn’t do any missions for three years, he will automatically lose his ranking, so he’ll need to start from the bottom again,” Ilene added. “By the time he gets to the top, you will have enough time to plan for a perfect massacre.”“Hmph, are you trying to take my eyes off the millennium herb so that you can coax him and get it somehow?” Tyron asked.“If you are so eager to embarrass yourself, then I won’t stop you. Godspeed,” Ilene said and spun on her toes once, letting out a blinding li

Bald Falcon was talking with a few of his teammates. “Clear all the debts first, and then trade two-thirds of the remaining money for gold. Contact Lily Nighthawk. She will have enough gold.”“But she demands absurdly high amounts of money. Last time she asked for ten times more money, about 100K for a kilo of gold.”“We don’t have another choice,” Bald Falcon said. “We can’t store fiat currency in our treasuries, can we? So, even if we get gold worth 3 billion dollars for 30 billion dollars, it’ll be worth it in the end.”“Shouldn’t we talk to the head about this first?”“We do this every time, so what’s special now? Just do what I tell you,” Bald Falcon ordered as the head of the falcon auction.And then Bald Falcon had all the four fake herbs gathered into one place, while keeping them concealed, and waited outside the door.Denver, Catherine, and Sheryl were inside.“One man and two women inside,” Bald Falcon’s underlings voiced their minds. “They aren’t doing crazy stuff, are the

Bald Falcon stopped the first dagger, but the second one flew straight toward Denver.In that fraction of a second, Denver’s eye caught the sight of the dagger and fired the neurons in his brain.All the nerves in his whole body activated at once. His hand was still on the table, but it slightly lifted and smashed it down, causing the golden plate and a few other items to bounce off the table.The second dagger hit the golden plate and made a dent through the plate and went for Denver’s chest.But Sheryl caught it when the dagger was an inch away from his chest.“Who the hell is it?!” Bald Falcon kicked the chair back and turned around.To his shock, it wasn’t just one or two groups, but multiple groups sitting at multiple tables all had their eyes shimmering with greed.“Are you guys seeking death?” Bald Falcon raised the dagger in his hand. “Which bastard threw this?”However, nobody responded.“It was the Drunken Assassin,” Leander and Sheryl said at the same time, making both of t

“You’re so eager to meet your maker… So be it!” Tyron snapped his fingers.Nearly fifty armed assassins, completely dressed in black from head to toe entered the hall from different directions.“You think you can handle them, Boss?” Sheryl looked at Denver.“I’m not superman,” Denver replied, “but my priority right now is only to leave this damn place safely with my girlfriend. Nothing else.” He locked his arm around Catherine’s waist.“I’ll make the way, so focus on escaping and nothing else,” Sheryl replied.“What about you?”“Oh, I won’t die that easily, Boss,” Sheryl replied.“Let me help you escape,” Bald Falcon joined them because Denver had rescued his wife from Tyron’s attack not long ago.“Seeing how you’re planning an escape makes me pity you all the more, Denver,” Tyron coldly smiled. “You’ve become weak after falling in love with a woman and getting betrayed by her.”Catherine frowned, wondering if Tyron was talking about Diane. But then, did Denver fall in love with Diane

Sakeda, to put it mildly, was a mess.He waved his knife, and the helicopter was cut in two halves.Catherine was terrified by what she saw. He managed to cut the helicopter in twain with what looked like a kitchen knife?And Denver was supposed to fight such a nasty maniac?Denver jumped off the car and ran toward the helicopter as fast as he could, but Sakeda was quicker.The pilot begged him to not kill, saying, “I have two kids. Don’t kill me.”“The weak don’t get to choose shit, kekeke,” Sakeda thrust the knife in the pilot’s heart just as Denver was upon him.“Stop!” Denver threw a punch, but Sakeda jumped away in time and made some distance before dashing toward the car.“I’ll kill your girlfriend next!” Sakeda blurted. “Stop me if you can!”Denver’s eyes widened as Sakeda took out a small dagger and shot it toward the car, aimed at Catherine.Denver didn’t even have the time to spare for the pilot who was in his last moments. He stomped on the ground, causing red lightning to
