Zachary Hougthon : The Invincible God Of War

Chapter 5

At the Pierson residence, a big party was being held. It was Peter Pierson's 70th birthday party. The entire Pierson family had gathered together with all the guests present, as well as the guests of the three family emissaries. They were from the Winter, Lawson, and Joansen families.

One by one, people approached Peter and congratulated him by bringing many luxurious gifts.

"Mr. Lawson came with a jade god statue worth twenty million dollars. Mr. Winter came with a painting worth fifteen million dollars. Mr. Joansen has brought a diamond watch worth twenty-five million dollars." The host announced the gifts given by the three great families to all the guests.

Everyone listened in awe. Meanwhile, Mr. Peter was seen smiling excitedly with a beaming face.

Many guests came with high-value gifts, seeking the attention of Mr. Peter Pierson and hoping for cooperation from one of the Pierson family's subsidiaries.

Meanwhile, outside, there was already a masked man who came with a large bell on his shoulder. Even the sound of the bell could be heard in the hall. Everyone turned their heads, staring at the man who had just entered. No one knew that the man behind the black mask was Zachary.

This was a big party, and what stupid man would have tried to cause a riot at this party?

Peter, who had been smiling, was now grim. He glared at the stranger who had ruined the event. "Who are you? Why did all the guards let this man in? Get him out!" Peter shouted with a piercing look in his eyes.

Several people immediately blocked Zachary's way, but Zachary trounced each one. He even beat them with one hand. His other hand was holding the big bell on his shoulder.

Peter was furious. He took a gun and aimed it at Zachary, but the shot was blocked by the big bell and failed to penetrate Zachary's head.

"Who are you?" Peter asked in a loud voice, his eyes flashing. The party, which was supposed to be lively, was now in chaos.

"I am the one who will take your life." Zachary's voice sounded cold and cynical. But it echoed throughout the room.

Zachary stepped towards Peter, but several people immediately came and blocked Zachary. Without even realizing it, someone pushed Peter and almost knocked him down.

One of the Piersons pointed at Zachary's face. "Don't try to cause trouble here." The man spoke loudly. "But you have come and brought trouble. You will come out in a terrible state." the man threatened.

The man pushed aside the few people blocking Zachary from approaching Peter. He walked up to Zachary and intended to remove his mask. "Let me see who he is. And, of course, I will never forgive him after this."

The man named Lemos raised his hand and was about to remove the mask Zachary wore, but with a quick movement, Zachary pulled the man's hand and twisted the hand firmly. A screech sounded from Lemos. His face looked up at the excruciating pain in his hand. But before the pain subsided, Zachary pushed the man's body until he was dead in an instant.

Everyone who was there shuddered in horror, watching the sadistic scene. Even they recognized the great strength possessed by Zachary. Many of the guests screamed. They wanted to escape, but no one dared to move from their place.

Zachary looked at the still screaming people, so everyone immediately stopped and fell silent. This was very scary.

"You bastard. You killed my grandson." Peter cursed in annoyance.

He stared at his dead grandson. What should have been a happy day was now a tense day. "I'll kill you." Peter looked back at Zachary and pointed the gun at Zachary.

There was no fear. Instead, Zachary walked closer. The sound was so quiet that Zachary's footsteps could be heard along with a bell as if signaling a death announcement. This was very tense.

"You will be killed." Zachary's voice gave everyone goosebumps.

Thousands of people had died in his hands, and after looking closely at Peter's face, Zachary's blood boiled even more and made him feel impatient to kill the old man who had wiped out his entire family. 

Peter's hand shook violently, making it challenging to release the shot at Zachary, who kept walking closer. Suddenly, the gun fell from his hand. This made everyone panic.

Exactly one meter away, they faced each other. The fierce face Peter always shows disappears before the man wearing a black mask.

"Peter Pierson, do you remember what your sins were in the past?" Zachary remembered it. Behind his mask, Zachary looked at Peter sharply.

Instantly, Peter regained consciousness. His face was still wet with sweat. At that moment, he wanted to push the body of the man in front of him, but he didn't want the same thing from his grandson to happen to him.

"You're just a kid, don't play with me!" Peter snapped at him. Of course, he knew who the person in front of him was.

Zachary ignored Peter's bluff. He didn't feel afraid to face him. Zachary stepped closer to Peter. "Ten years ago, you burned down my family in the manor. And I want your death to avenge that." Zachary's voice sounded very creepy.

Everyone became worried about Peter, who was in big trouble. But no one dared to help him.

Sure enough, Zachary raised his hand and firmly held Peter's neck. The strong strangulation made Peter instantly lose his breath. In the seconds of his death, Zachary twisted the neck so firmly that in an instant, Peter's neck broke, which immediately made Peter die. Not only there, Zachary pulled the neck axle with all his strength, which made Peter's head detached from his body.

Blood poured out of Peter's body. Zachary dropped the head so that it rolled towards one of the guests, which made the guest smother his mouth.

At this moment, Zachary stared intently at his stepmother's face- Diana Pierson. She was the daughter of Peter Pierson. And right now, the woman looked extremely panicked and scared. Just like her father, she felt her heartbeat speeding up, especially when Diana realized that the masked man was stepping closer to her.

"Don't come any closer. Don't touch me!" Diana walked backward. Her breathing sped up as sweat poured down her cheeks.

"Don't touch-" Before she could continue her sentence, the masked man touched Diana's neck first. The man deliberately strangled her neck. Diana almost lost her breath. Even Diana tried hard to shake off the burly hand, trying to stop her airway.

Everyone there was panicking, but no one dared to come closer to save her. Slowly, Diana became weaker and weaker. Her chest ached as oxygen could no longer be freely inhaled. She almost lost consciousness.

But amid her limp body, suddenly, the masked man released the stranglehold on Diana's neck, and the two men immediately left the Pierson palace.

Diana's breathing was ragged. She even had to pat her chest repeatedly to regain her breath. Diana also coughed violently. After the masked man's departure, some people dared to come over. "Madam, drink this." A woman handed Diana some water. She had almost recovered her consciousness.

Diana was very scared. She immediately took out her cell phone and contacted her brother in charge of the Western field and a senior colonel.

"Brother.... Father is dead..." her voice was trembling, her hands wet with sweat.
