1010: Felix's Thought

Felix's Thought

"What is this?"2

"Eh?"

Two beggars met each other on the street as they exchanged looks. They were confused by what they experienced.

"Why are you here?"

"I should be the one to ask that. This is my territory."

"This is also my territory."

Not long after, another three beggars appeared, finding these two beggars confronting each other.

"Eh?!"

"You…"

They truly had no idea what was going on. They were following Felix this whole time, and somehow they reached this place with a clueless expression.

"What is going on?"

While they were shaking their heads, Felix watched their actions while reporting to Theo.

"It is as you said. I am looking at five beggars right now." Felix informed him while observing their movement. He never thought the situation would be like this.

"As expected." Theo narrowed his eyes.

"Do you know anything about this? Are we going to destroy their network?" Felix asked. If the disruption became bigger, the beggars would find out someone was manipulating them. So, he wanted to know Theo's intention first.

"Nah, it's fine." Theo never had a plan in antagonizing the beggars. But knowing that he could take advantage of their network was enough for a trump card. He might need their help in the future.

"Do you know how they work? This is baffling to me even though my job is similar to theirs. Although I can simply disappear by using my power, I won't be able to do the same thing as you."

"Do you want to know about it?"

"It's true that I'm curious, but I believe this is a secret, right?"

"Nah, it's general knowledge. If you want, I can tell you after we return to the mansion." Theo smiled.

"I understand. I shall continue straight to our destination then."

"Got it. I'm counting on you."

After the brief exchange, Felix continued his way toward Isaac's house.

His house was two hours away from his mansion, but it was for a car. As for Felix, whose speed was faster than a car and his flexibility could go through many places, he reached Isaac's house within fifteen minutes.

The instant he reached the area, he already found two people loitering around the house a few times as though they were not planning to leave. It was clear that they were tasked to monitor the area.

Luckily, they seemed to be Supreme Rank Experts. Although they hid their presence, they couldn't escape Felix's eyes.

'Hmm, Joker wants me to eliminate them. But should I kill them? Should I keep them alive? Normally, I will let them live because they are just following their jobs. But if I think this from Isaac or Joker's perspective, some of them deserve to die.

'After all, they're the ones harassing Isaac this whole time. If Millie were experiencing this kind of harassment, I would have killed them.

'Still, I don't know the situation in this country. Although I have learned some of them, I don't know if Joker wants me to kill them or not. After all, killing these people will result in alarming the people behind them.

'If they aim for Joker because of my action, I'm afraid it's going to trouble him. And it will indirectly impact Millie.' Felix scratched the back of his head, pondering over his decisions. After some thought, he took out his Skylink and called Theo to get his instruction since Theo seemed to be able to see far ahead of him.

Unfortunately for him, Theo didn't pick up his call despite trying a few times.

'Huh? He didn't pick up my call? Is he getting attacked by someone right now?' Felix narrowed his eyes and turned around. 'Should I go back to check his condition? But if I go back, I might pass him before I know it.

'There should be no one foolish enough to attack him in broad daylight, especially with the Star Group's protection. On the other hand, it will be inconvenient if he arrives before I take them out…'

Felix was on his wits' end, not knowing what to do.

On one hand, he wanted to check Theo's condition because he was worried about him. On the other hand, he wanted to trust Theo and killed these people so that Theo could arrive safely.

'I should trust him a bit more. He's someone who dared to come to my place with his neck on the line. In that case, I should handle these people first and ask his opinion later.' Felix took a deep breath as he finally started working again after two years.

…

In the street, the Supreme Rank Expert released a bit of his Magic Power before throwing an egg at the house.

'This sucks. How long do I need to keep doing this? The client wants me to harass that guy until he gives up, but it's been months.' The Supreme Rank Expert sighed while walking forward as if he didn't do anything wrong.

Suddenly, the sunlight shone brighter to the point that it blinded his eyes for a split second.

'Ugh. Stupid sun.' He thought while covering his eyes with his hand. But the moment the hand created a shadow for his eyes, it soon became dark as though something blocked the sunlight.

"!!!" In that instant, he raised his other hand to attack the person on top of him, but to no avail. The shadow soon disappeared together with his consciousness.

"Ugh." The last thing he remembered was a strong hit on his stomach before his mind went blank.

He fell down but was caught by a middle-aged man's arm before they disappeared from the vicinity.

*Bam!*

Felix dropped the guy to the ground and looked at the mountain of bodies. There were at least ten people in the surrounding area.

"This should be the last one," Felix muttered in a low voice. "I don't bring my equipment to keep them unconscious for hours, so I need to stay here for another hour until Joker arrives. If Joker hasn't arrived at that time, I will drop the mission and try to trace his location."

Felix nodded with a serious expression while looking at these eleven bodies.
