Marco clenched his fists tightly. His face was red with protruding neck veins. Immediately, the sound of a table being hit violently rang out, causing some of the servants and soldiers to jump in surprise. Several ceramic cups arranged with the teapot clinked against each other. Marco glared at the people there. He looked like he was ready to swallow them alive. Marco would immediately smash them with his fists if anyone made the slightest wrong move.Not content with punching the wooden table until it cracked, Marco also threw a vase of flowers right in front of the remaining squad leader's feet. The man shouted loudly, "You're all so annoying! You fools!" The green veins on Marco's neck seemed to tighten, and the man's eyes bulged like they could roll to the floor. He girded his loins, along with his intimidating gaze. The people there had no intention of answering, acting like blind and deaf statues. They were there because Marco had called, and now, they had to be ready to listen
News of the war that was taking place was now starting to spread widely among the people. The citizens of Pharae and almost the entire country of Skylonia were talking about it. Some TV news had shown the results of the war, along with the people involved in it. Even so, no one knew if Julius was involved in the war. They only knew that big people who had a share in the money circulation in Skylonia were involved in the unrest.One Skylonian interviewed in a TV program said, "This war feels very scary. I can't imagine it happening near me." The man was wearing a black hat with a backpack hanging on his back. Apparently, he was planning to hike before the news of the war broke and had to return home due to the unsafe situation.Another man added, "It's a good thing our country won. Otherwise, I wouldn't know where to run." The two men nodded at each other. They shook their heads in unison until the reporter asked them if they knew who was involved in the war. Apparently, Julius managed
"Apparently, they are quite difficult for us to fight. Our enemies have a backup strategy," Marco said as the president of the country of Infrastraat sat before him. The man looked at the president with an ordinary gaze as if the position held by the old man was nothing.Marco then crossed his legs and handed a document to the president, "But you just relax, I'll give you the help you deserve." When Marco said this, the president's face immediately brightened. The man named John Freddison took the document handed over by Marco. When he opened it, he immediately smiled broadly. He laughed, nodding in agreement at Marco's amount for their cooperation.Marco grinned, "Under these circumstances, we should take better care of ourselves." Marco's initial remark caught the attention of President John. The man turned away from the amount he received and focused on what Marco wanted to tell him.And now, Marco paused, "You know, just by sacrificing a little, we can get what we want. A better l
"Damn, man! You don't know yourself!" cursed the man whose hand Julius had not yet let go. The man tried to pull his wrist, which was aching, and his eyes were sharp as if he wanted to devour Julius alive. The man then pointed at Julius' face with his left forefinger, "You've made the mistake of being violent to me. Do you think I'm going to just let you go? You must have hit me deliberately to make my shoulder hurt this much. You have to take responsibility!"Julius shook his head. He tried to speak calmly, "You were the one who walked in a hurry and bumped into me. I was stationary here when you suddenly charged in from the side." That's right, Julius wasn't moving when this strange man in front of him suddenly appeared and hit him with force. The man also cursed him outright when Julius hadn't said anything yet.But the man still didn't accept Julius' explanation. He even came forward and pushed Julius' shoulder with an unfriendly look in his eyes, "What the hell? You think I don't
The two bodyguards' eyes bulged when they heard Julius' denial. To him, Julius was just a janitor who was no higher than a presidential bodyguard. The man girded his loins and stepped forward to intimidate Julius, "Do you know what you just said? How dare you!"The man then pointed at Julius with a very annoyed look, "I'm very tired, and I already have a lot of work to do! Don't you try to add to my burden! Besides, this cleaning is your job. What's so hard about mopping the dirty floor again? Is it my business if you have to clean the floor you cleaned earlier?" His eyes bulged so many times, scolding Julius that some of his spit seemed to fly in the air.The guard spoke loudly, half threatening Julius in the hope that Julius would immediately apologize and do what he asked. But apparently, the guard's loud voice did not have much effect on Julius. Instead, Julius casually said, "I'm busy."Not only that, Julius also added, "Besides, you're not babies anymore. So clean up your mess."
Julius had finished his work in the room. And now, he walked out and opened the door. But Julius couldn't just leave the building because two guards suddenly appeared at the door with suspicious faces.The one with the towering body asked Julius with a probing face, "What did you just do there? Didn't the cleaning finish two hours ago?" The man scrutinized Julius' appearance from top to bottom, looking for anything suspicious. However, when he found nothing unusual, he refocused on listening to Julius' answer because Julius looked like any other janitor.Julius didn't seem panicked. The man was still as flat as ever, "I left this wet rag inside, and I picked it up before going home." Julius even picked up the half-wet rag he had been carrying since the beginning. The man now looked like an ordinary janitor. And the bodyguard no longer felt suspicious. If he had known what Julius had just done, the bodyguard would have immediately pointed his firearm at Julius.So now, the bodyguard no
Julius grinned, "Ah, you seem to have guessed who sent me? How scared are you of the Luckystone family? Seems like you're very keen on eliminating their family's power, huh?" asked Julius in a frivolous tone that sounded quite annoying to the president's ears. The man glared at Julius from behind the desk, now covered in thick bulletproof glass, Marco having entered it a few minutes ago. The man, who was initially calm, slowly stepped in when he realized Julius was carrying a gun in his pants pocket.Julius laughed loudly, clapping his hands with a fearless look, "But don't worry, all your plans will end soon because you don't have any abilities." The man looked like a psychopath, ready to slaughter anyone in front of him.Hearing Julius' words, Marco and the president glanced at each other and smiled broadly at Julius, "You're pretty crazy, too. Instead of being a subordinate of the Luckystone family, you'd better join me. I can give you a lot of money for fun and change your life, w
At that moment, Marco and President John immediately widened their eyes. Both were shocked, almost hitting the table in disbelief and feeling played. In front of them, the person they thought was just an errand boy was,, the enemy they had been after all this time. The main heir of the Luckystone family was sitting with his legs crossed and staring at them with a frivolous look. Marco clenched his hands even more, "Why is it like this? You're the heir apparent to the Luckystone family?" The man chuckled and took a slow breath before continuing, "How dare you come here? You should die and rot with all those useless soldiers of yours! You're just trash that stands in the way of all my successes and plans."Marco insulted Julius with a painful rant, for he felt utterly deceived by a figure who should have been elsewhere strategizing, not coming to him in person. And now, the man grinned, "But it's good that you came here on your own, I didn't have to bother looking for you among your an
