****“Master, what if they still have something evil in hiding? Have you forgotten they still have a son who is even scarier than that devil?”Someone suddenly asks the old man who is seated in the leader’s position fearfully.Hearing this, everybody in the hall heaved all sorts of sighs, remembering the news they’ve been receiving from their family member that is also in the army.Suddenly, a weakened expression appeared on the leader’s face.“As it looks, that boy would be returning today with tons of soldiers under him that are fully armed, that means we wouldn’t be able to touch the slightest part of him,”The old man muttered to himself and everybody.Hearing this, everybody in the hall began to sigh again, their hearts flustering loudly in their chests.They continued within the dark and heavy-aura-filled hall when suddenly, several footsteps rushed in with excitement written on their faces.“Master… master, the third young master is back! He has arrived!”Previously,
**** The meeting place which is filled with all the members of the Bottoms family is completely quiet right now as all sort of expressions appears on everybody's faces.After the previous question was asked, several people had been eyeing everybody like they couldn’t wait to devour them all.As for the remaining people that included the guards, servants, and the people that weren’t related to the Bottoms family, they were completely nervous right now as they watched and eye everybody, the influential people within the family, trying to choose who to support.This silence pervaded for almost ten minutes before suddenly, someone chuckled loudly, startling everybody.Hearing this chuckle, all heads turned in the direction of the middle-aged man that made it.“You all, as you’ve known, after my elder brother who just, unfortunately, lost his life tonight, I am the next person in line, so what are we still asking? Isn’t it already automatic for me to become the new leader of this
“You useless slave, how dare you speak that nonsense?”He suddenly roared, his eyes turning red, and instantly, his four brothers that had been against and ganging up against him since the beginning nodded their heads hysterically, also looking extremely furious.“How dare you even suggest that nonsense in the first place, are you crazy?”“What shitty solution was that? Have you forgotten our family's rank?”“You foolish butler, then what’s the use of asking for your solution if, at the end of the day, it's going to cause the same thing as doing nothing?”Hearing what the most influential people within the hall were shooting, everybody present began to nod their heads, instantly feeling hostility at the old butler.Although he saw this clearly and felt the sudden hatred and resentment directed at him, the small smile on the old butler's face doesn’t change at all.Had the previous Patriarch been here right now, he would have been shocked to the core by the sudden transformation
**** “Young man, who are you?” Seeing the sudden intruder, the middle-aged man couldn’t help but suddenly question, his heart skipping a bit when he felt the oppressive aura around him. Right now, apart from looking a bit nervous, his previous attitude couldn’t be seen anymore. It wasn’t only him, but everybody currently in the hall. Feeling their strong nervousness, Lean Bottoms doesn’t look concerned at all, rather, he acted as if they were ordinary air and glanced around the huge hall. “Where is my father?” he questioned suddenly, with a strong frown on his face. Although right now, he was feeling mostly relieved when he realized that everything is still in a single piece, he couldn’t calm the strong uneasiness within him. ‘Was I being too paranoid?’ He suddenly thought and glanced at all the faces that were now filled to the brim with confusion, probably at his sudden question. Of course, he had already expected this, that he wouldn’t instantly be recognized after arrivin
****“Boohoo! Little cousin, why were you this late?! Why?”“How could you be this late? Do you know, your father was such a great man that had sacrificed his life to protect every one of us here?”“Where have you been all these years, hun? Your father and all the soldier of the families waited for your arrival to lead us through the tragedy that met us tonight!”The more he hears, the more Lean Bottoms realized his thought was very real, then gradually, his face became completely cold with no traces of warmth left.Squinting his eyes with all he could, Lean Bottoms abruptly clenched his fists forcefully, making them release cracking sounds.Unknowingly for him, a thick and intense coldness had begun to emit from his body and spread around the entire hall, sending everybody trembling and shivering like they had been placed inside a million years old ice.A low growl suddenly sounded from his mouth, instantly turning everybody's legs to jellies.
****Lean Bottoms' eyes suddenly widen, then abruptly, he ordered the old man before him“I need you to arrange for the best living environment within the estate ASAP. We have some extremely important visitors, and they must be satisfied or else, I shall do to you what I just did to them.”Hearing the threat, the old man trembled greatly, then his eyes gazed at the four men almost in death positions and scurried off.Just as he left, the people making the thunderous footsteps eventually arrived, startling everybody to the core.Although the footsteps had sounded like the people coming were up to a thousand organized people, they were only a bit more than a hundred.“You little brat, have you forgotten we are… hun?”The rude voice speaking abruptly made a startled sound, then his eyes gazed around the hall.“Wow! Beautiful, what beautiful ladies are this!”Lean Bottoms, “_”He had thought the leader was about to ask what had happened
***** The next day, the news of the Bottoms family's evilness spread wide like a fire in the city, garnering all sorts of furiousness from the citizens.This piece of unexpected news was a great shocker to all ordinary citizens.Although they didn’t understand most of the things in the news, they understood the part of the Bottoms family having abducted thousands of people just to torture them to death all in the name of training.Just as the citizens were busy sending the family all sorts of massive and heartless curses, another piece of news was released, and with this, more than half of the City became relieved, excited, and confused.This piece of news released mentioned everything Lean Bottoms ordered the Old Butler to report last night.It also spoke of how the corpse of the previous Patriarch would be offered to the vultures to consume and the endless hellish wishes they gave him in the underworld.The people felt that the family deserves what they got, so all the
****Just as Rex Magnus' voice sounded, the figure scurrying ahead came to a full stop.It was as if a remote button has been pressed on her, then slowly, she turned to gaze at where the voice originated.Seeing the current expression on her face and her crimson red and fear-filed eyes, Rex Magnus' heart clenched painfully within him.Just as he was about to ask her what was going on, the Figure bolted hysterically at him before jumping directly into his arms and shivering.It was as if someone just chased her out of her nightmare to the real world.Seeing his wife's behavior, Rex Magnus doesn’t have the time to think of nonsense at all.Of course, he knew what was going on with his wife, so the expression on his face Immediately darken as he became filled with concern.‘It was that bastard's fault!’He cried in his mind with strong killing intent.‘The punishment he was receiving right now is so little compared to what he deserves!’Poor Alan Bottoms.If he were to know w
