1135: Kill

Kill

Although Felix didn't know what Theo wanted to do, he obviously had heard about Theo's achievement. He single-handedly solved many problems in Italy.2

He might not know about the details of what happened in the dark because he was in Australia and too invested in his daughter, but he was aware that Theo wasn't a normal young man.

"If you're going to waste my time here, you should leave." Theo shook his head helplessly as if he was disappointed with this man.

"You—!" The young man gritted his teeth before pointing his finger at Theo. "Do you know who I am?"

"I couldn't care less." Theo shrugged and looked at Ergene. "So, is there anything that I need to do before challenging you?"

Ergene glanced at the young man before looking at Theo worriedly. "You shouldn't have done that…"

"What can he do to me? Nothing." Theo shrugged. "Anyway, I want to challenge you."

Even so, Ergene knew how dire the situation had become, especially for Theo. She warned him, "Your accent… you are not from this country, right? In this country, there is a conglomerate family ruling in the dark. The Bolhom Conglomerate is one of them. Basically, if you offend them, you will suddenly disappear. And now, you're provoking their heir…"

"He is an heir?" Theo chuckled, completely mocking him and his family. "You serious? An heir with an anger issue? When he takes over the family, he will completely ruin it."

"You bastard. I've had enough! Kill him! I'm going to make you regret provoking me!" The young man shouted, ordering his Mythical Rank Expert to cut Theo down.

Because he had been paid for this, the Mythical Rank Expert rushed toward Theo with his blade.

"Watch out!" Ergene raised her sword to block this sword since she didn't want anyone to die in this situation. However, she was too late not to protect Theo but to stop Felix. All of a sudden, the sunlight glowed even brighter, blinding their eyes. Ergene even covered her eyes while gripping her sword after feeling the movement. 'Kh…'

"AAAHHHHH!"

In the next second, a scream shook the area as the Mythical Rank Expert dropped to the ground, clutching his severed arm. "AAAAHHHHH!"

"!!!" Both Ergene and the young man widened their eyes in shock. After all, Felix appeared next to the Mythical Rank Expert with his sword.

He was looking down on the Mythical Rank Expert and even put his sword right on top of his neck to stop him from moving. He thought, 'Th-Ahem, Joker only tapped me two times instead of three times. In other words, I shouldn't kill him for now.'

"Good work, Felix." Theo smiled as he glanced at the back.

"You… you!" The young man was stunned. They both were Mythical Rank Experts, but his elite couldn't even do anything against Felix. It was truly shocking.

Little did he know, even among assassins, Felix was one of the best in Australia. And as someone who possessed a light affinity, his power was at its peak when there was sunlight, let alone now that the sun was almost on top of their head.

The disparity was simply too big.

Of course, Theo was also using his power to erase his power for a split second.

"Now, now… what should I do with him…" Theo smirked while looking down on the Mythical Rank Expert. "According to what I heard earlier, you were not a local too, and you had been brought here just to deal with her… Should I kill you or not…"

The Mythical Rank Expert surprisingly didn't reply to Theo. Instead, he was glaring at Theo as if he wanted to kill him.

At the same time, the young man from the Bolhom Family shouted again. "You! How dare you to raise your hand against the Bolhom Family! Even with your Mythical Rank Expert, the family will hunt you down!"

"Felix. That guy disgusts me. Kill him!" Theo clicked his tongue.

"Yes." Felix nodded.

"Wha—?! You—!" He stopped when Felix actually raised his sword.

Still, Felix's number one priority was Theo's protection. Before going to kill the young man, he cut the Mythical Rank Expert a few times. They were heavy wounds, but they shouldn't be enough to kill the expert. At the very least, he wouldn't be able to do anything when he dealt with the young man.

After that, Felix's sword shone. The light was so strong that it blinded them again.

"N—" Before the young man could say something, Felix's sword had reached his heart, killing him. Just like that, the young man died without being able to utter another word. Even Felix had to agree that having the young man as their heir wouldn't be good for a big family since it would lead them to their ruin.

Still, it didn't mean that they could kill him as they pleased, considering the one before them was a local tyrant. If this was spread, the problem would become bigger since the other party controlled the media.

Theo then looked at the Mythical Rank Expert and stated, "I'll give you a chance to live. Bring the body back to his family. I don't want to dirty my eyes anymore."

The Mythical Rank Expert gritted his teeth. Although he didn't want it, he couldn't do anything against him. After all, Felix was too strong.

In the end, he carried the young man's body with his remaining hand as he staggeringly walked back.

"Are you sure we can let him go back? Judging from their recklessness, I'm afraid that they are going to call more people to hunt us down." Felix asked with a concerned expression. He was already long enough in the dark that he knew what would happen.

"It's fine. I'm going to explain it later with the rest." Theo nodded before adding, "He's an important piece to complete our missions."

"An important piece…" Felix muttered in a low voice as he couldn't imagine the role the Mythical Rank Expert would play.

However, one thing was true. Theo's plan had been in motion.
