The house that should have been filled with peace was now filled with an eerie silence. William walked slowly through the house, his heart full of worry. Every corner of the room intimidated his mind with terrifying images.Soon he found Arthur lying on the floor, badly injured. And not far from his father-in-law, the bodies of Emma, Liliana, and Michael lay with much worse injuries. Blood was flowing from their bodies, forming a horrible red pool around them. William ran over and called out, but received no response."F*ck! who did all this?" he shouted, his anger overflowing like a flood.After seeing his family badly injured, William's mind turned to finding Charlotte's whereabouts. As far as he could see, his wife was nowhere in sight.Trembling, William took out his cell phone and called for medical assistance from Royal Litusia, knowing he had priority access to the hospital so they would surely come as soon as they received his call.On the other hand, his feet never stopped mo
After the medical team had started treating his family, William rushed to the Black Order to retrieve the Grimoire of Gremory. His heart did not slow down at all. Time seemed to be chasing him, not allowing him to catch his breath. When he finally arrived at the Gilgamesh bar, William was choked up. The Gilgamesh Bar was still closed. Which meant that the Black Order was still not open. He forgot that the sun was still very high in the sky. And the Black Order would only start working when the sun was down. Confusion and panic washed over him. Among the hundreds or even thousands of people at Waterlow Station, William was probably the only one who kept moving from one point to another. He paced back and forth, thinking of ways to get to the book as quickly as possible. Then he reached for the cell phone in his pocket and tried to contact Emily, a member of the Black Order, for help. William shakily took out his cell phone and quickly searched for Emily's number in his contact list.
William looked up and saw the figure speaking to him, "Alfred?! Ahh... somehow I had guessed it must be you. The one who owns the Black Order."Aflred smiled, "Looks like I failed to surprise you since you guessed it already.""I wasn't really surprised that it was you. The thing that surprised me was Henry. What are you doing here man?" Said William.Henry smiled at William, "Perhaps it would be more appropriate if my father explained.""Father?" said William in shock, "You're father and son? Gosh I didn't expect that.""I'll explain as we go inside, William. I know you don't have much time. Your wife's life is at stake here." Alfred said as he opened the door to Gilgamesh bar."How did you know?" asked William in surprise that the Black Order already knew what happened to him.Alfred chuckled, "Don't underestimate us, William. We are the Black Order, the most powerful underworld Bankers and guild of informers in the country." The old man then snapped his fingers and almost everyone
Alfred, still with his angry face, advised William, "If you can't save just one life. How can you save hundreds or even thousands of lives? It's not a matter of being selfish or not, it's a matter of the life you have to save in front of you! Besides, the life you have to help is your own wife.The bad feeling William felt for acting selfishly was instantly gone, slapped hard by Alfred. Now he knew exactly what he had to do. He took the Grimoire and left the Black Order. At the door of the Gilgamesh Bar, Alfred stopped William."Take Henry with you. This will be a test for him," Alfred said."Sure. Come on Henry, let's solve this problem as soon as possible," William said."I'm not going alone William." Henry said, which made William show a questioning expression. Then he opened the door of the Gilgamesh Bar and saw a horde of battle-ready troops filling the watering hole.William laughed softly, then louder, "This will be enough to destroy that bastard named Demiand. Follow me, we'll
Accompanied by darkness, William began his operation to save Charlotte, who was now in Mr. Demiand's grasp. William's heart did not stop pumping blood into every vein. The pounding in his chest grew louder as he imagined the condition of Charlotte, his wife. Which might be in a very sad state. Just thinking about it made William's anger rise. His face, which had once looked calm and serene, was now completely gone. His face was now red, full of veins like a demon.Before leaving, William divided the group into three units. First was the Sleeping Behemoth, which was the main attack squad, led by Jaguar. Then there was the second unit from the Black Order, which was useful for supporting the first unit's attack. And the last was a unit of Uroboros, whose main task was to infiltrate the main building of the Jaeger Company.The operation then began with a silence that hung in the air, broken only by the sound of the confident footsteps of William and his troops as they approached the Jaeg
While William and Rudolf talked to Mr. Demiand in the hall. Jaguar began his operation, leading the Sleeping Behemoth unit to surround the entire outside area of the Jaeger Company building. They had prepared everything, knowing from the beginning that the entire area of the building would be heavily guarded by Mr. Demiand's troops.Clearing out the scattered troops was no big deal, as the combined number of troops between Sleeping Behemoth and Black Company was huge. The capacity was enough to start a small war in one area. The problem was the snipers stationed on the rooftops of the buildings. As soon as they realized that there were strange movements around them, the snipers would definitely make a report. And everything William had prepared would go wrong."There are ten snipers surrounding the Jaeger Company building. What should we do?" asked Henry, who had been watching the whole area with the Black Order troops. They were the best intelligence gathering unit. With all the equi
"You think I'm stupid! If I give you the Grimoire first, you won't let us go. Let Charlotte go first. Then I'll give you the Grimoire," William said."Hahaha," laughed Mr. Demiand, "you really underestimate me, William. I'm still a merchant. You give me the money, I give you the goods."William was again provoked by Mr. Demiand's words, "Goods?! You're saying my wife is a thing, you bastard!""Don't be provoked William," Rudolf said and continued, "What guarantee can you give us that we can get out safely after we hand over the Grimoire we have?"Mr. Demiand grinned, "Of course not. At a time like this, isn't trust all that's needed?""Don't joke, damn it!" William became more and more angry every time he heard Mr. Demiand's words, finally pulling out his ace to threaten back, "If you think you can control the situation here. I'm going to show you something interesting."William then stomped his foot hard to signal the Jaguar. Continuous gunfire from outside the building immediately e
With an ever-widening grin, Mr. Demiand then said, "You think you've got me cornered? Don't make me laugh. If I wanted to, I could have killed Charlotte and taken the Grimoire from you. So what do you say? Are you still determined to ask me to let Charlotte go first? Or are you willing to give up the two Grimoires first?""You laugh and laugh and laugh until it makes me sick. You must think that your position is superior to ours. Let me tell you, Demiand, even if you get the Grimoire you want and kill yourself. You still won't make it out of this place alive. My troops will finish you off, and if necessary, I will destroy this building as well," William said with a face that clearly showed his anger.In the midst of the stagnant situation, a shot rang out from a Jaeger Company soldier. The shot hit Mr. Demiand right in the left chest, causing him to immediately fall down covered in blood. The incident shocked all of his subordinates. They were petrified for a moment, unable to react.
