Even though Lucy was furious, the encounter between Gray and Louis had to continue. Gray sat across from Louis, his demeanor naturally cheerful as he spoke, "So you're Lucy's friend, huh? You look quite handsome." Louis smiled and nodded, "And you don't seem outstanding." Gray: "..." Lucy covered her mouth, barely holding back her laughter. Gray's face became quite unpleasant. He frowned slightly, feeling that Lucy's friend was overly impolite. He looked at Lucy and said, "Did you hear what your friend just said to me?" He thought Lucy would be angry and that this would rupture the friendship between them. However, Lucy playfully covered her mouth and laughed as if she completely disregarded how he was treated. Since arriving at this place, everything seemed to be turned upside down. Gray felt uneasy, stood up, frowned, and said, "I need to leave now. I don't want to talk to someone who doesn't respect others." Lucy's cold voice suddenly resounded, "A person like you doesn'
Gray was led down to a basement under Louis's private mansion.Not at all intoxicated, Louis took it upon himself to interrogate Gray.At this moment, Louis was sitting in a white prison cell. The whole room was predominantly white, with very few colors present. An average person staying in a room like this for long would go mad.Gray was currently tied to a chair, slumping his head with his eyes tightly shut. Louis heard from Ace that Gray had passed out on the way back here, clearly from expending too much energy to activate his unique ability. He had been given special treatment within a day, and once his life was no longer in danger, he was locked in this place.Louis signaled to Ace, who immediately approached carrying a bucket of water, then callously splashed it onto Gray's body. Gray's entire body twitched instinctively. He recoiled slightly, and after a moment, his eyelids fluttered, slowly opening his eyes.As soon as he raised his gaze, he saw Louis smiling across fro
Two people had been waiting in the grand hall for a while.A middle-aged man stood there, and he was none other than Angle. The other person was a young man with a handsome and gentle face.It was hard to believe that he was Liam, the same person who had displayed impatience and rushed behavior the day before.Angle looked at the magnificent and beautiful mansion, then glanced at his favored disciple, restraining a sigh.The last time they met, he could sense that Louis was not an easy person to deal with. Now, under these circumstances, he couldn't predict what would happen to them.Seeing his mentor sigh, Liam quickly furrowed his brows and said, "You don't need to worry, Sir. All the faults are mine. None of this is certainly related to you."He furrowed his brows and spoke confidently, yet his face didn't hint at threat.It was more like the annoyed expression of a lover being a bit impatient.That was one of the reasons why he liked wearing a mask during missions.Before, he ha
The group quickly headed towards the underground arena. On their way, they encountered Leon escorting Gray.And so, Gray was also taken along with them. Liam held onto him tightly, his face filled with anger. This was the first criminal he had been chasing, but not only did the guy manage to escape to the capital. He also got involved with a significant figure.Liam was just beginning to realize that having special abilities wasn't enough. Perhaps that was why he could only be a student; his teacher was the captain.They reached their destination swiftly. As soon as they entered, they heard a loud and enthusiastic roar. The scene here differed from when he brought Ace to fight Helen.Sounds of fighting, curses, and cheers flooded into their ears. This arena was indeed a different world compared to the outside.Angle couldn't help but glance at Louis, who immediately smiled and shook his head, saying, "Don't look at me like that. I'm not organizing any underground tournaments."
Two years wasn't too long or short, but it was enough time for Louis to almost transform into a different person.Looking down at the city of Gloria from the airplane, Louis couldn't express his feelings. This city held too many memories, although most were far from pleasant. The only beautiful thing he had from this city might be his acquaintance with Doug, Scarlet, and Elena.Thinking of Scarlet, Louis couldn't help but furrow his brows slightly; it had been a while since they last communicated. He had been busy with work, and Scarlet wasn't the type to exchange texts frequently. She always preferred direct meetings.If he was back in the city now, he thought he should look for her and meet up for a while – after all, it had been a long time since they met. However, first and foremost, he needed to see what the Special Event Investigation Team headquarters looked like.The plane quickly landed at an airport within the city. Specialized vehicles were waiting for them, as planne
After giving instructions to Louis and Ace about everything, Angle immediately left. As they looked at the two rooms before them, Louis glanced at Ace and asked, "Which room do you want?" Ace shrugged, "Anywhere is fine. You're being too picky." Louis rolled his eyes and walked into the room on the right. Inside, the room was pretty simple but had all the necessities. Louis hadn't brought much with him since he didn't plan to stay here long. He just wanted to see what the interior of this organization looked like.Just as Louis was about to sit in a chair, there was a knock on the door. The person entering was Ace. Seeing Ace enter, Louis couldn't help but furrow his brow and ask, "What are you doing here?"Ace replied impatiently, "Of course, I'm here for a mission. I have to protect you, the great Seven on Four!" Louis: "..." Ignoring him, they wouldn't be staying here for long anyway.As Louis was considering sitting down, another knock was on the door. This time, it was
The taxi sped back to the mansion. When the mansion's security saw Louis approaching, they promptly bowed and invited him inside. Without any further words, it was evident that this opulent estate was constructed with investments from Atlantis.The security personnel were aware that Louis still held his position. They swiftly arranged a luxurious car to transport him to his private mansion. On the way, a sudden question arose from Louis, "I've heard that recently, the number of people wanting to break contracts and move out of this area has increased. Is that true?"The security personnel slightly bowed and replied, "Yes, sir, that's correct. Not only in our area, but similar cases have occurred in other areas as well. They claim that intruders have entered their homes. We haven't found anyone else despite reinforcing security and thoroughly inspecting every inch."Louis's gaze deepened, and the situation seemed somewhat coincidental, didn't it? The car soon stopped at Louis's pr
Two opposing groups stood facing each other, and the smell of gunpowder seemed to permeate the air. The weak and feeble man trembling earlier had now regained his composure. He hurriedly ran upstairs, seeking refuge behind the leader.He stammered anxiously, "Leader, that guy, he... he seems to possess a special ability. You need to be cautious!"The leader glanced at the weak man who had nearly fainted from the pain of his shattered hands. He raised an eyebrow slightly and sneered, "Seems like no matter how powerful someone's ability is, they still fear bullets!"He had little belief that this man could command so many people yet fail to kill the two individuals before them.Louis looked sidelong at him and suddenly smiled, "It appears that you're not afraid of legal consequences, huh?"Laughter erupted from the group, and the leader responded mockingly, "If we can't even catch a glimpse of them, how could we fear any retribution from them?"Louis chuckled, "Oh, I see. Well, then,
