*Tap!* *Tap!* *Cak!* Footsteps echoed inside an underground tunnel. It was coming from the Tier 4 terrorist captain, who had escaped along with a few surviving subordinates. "Tsk. To think that our plan would fail this badly. What in the world actually happened? How could our ambush squad be defeated like that?" The captain was gritting his teeth. "What should we do now, Captain? With our current strength, we wouldn't be able to do anything for the time being. Should we retreat?" "Yeah. We should regroup with the second team. They should have been waiting for us at the end of this tunnel." The group continued running across the tunnel. It was there that they saw two shadows looming in the darkness. They thought that the other members had been waiting for them and were about to pick them up. But this dimly lit tunnel made it hard for them to see what was actually happening. Once they came closer, they finally noticed the blood smell coming from the group along with a few bodies lying on the ground. "Wait!" The captain instantly noticed something was wrong while raising his sword. "Who?!" The two shadows turned their heads toward them. Their gazes were filled with killing intent, freezing their bodies. In that instant, the two people disappeared. "!!!" The captain swung his sword horizontally, but he noticed that he was still a step too late. Both of them had passed him and reached his subordinates. "Ahhh!" "Ahhh!" A series of screams echoed, but it only lasted for a brief moment as all the people had died, leaving only the captain alive. "Oh my? You don't have to be that shocked. I wonder who actually provided you with misinformation." "..." The captain finally realized that everything was going according to his plan. "I've heard of the famous smuggler who is able to bring a lot of banned goods from outside. But it seems that banned goods aren't the only thing you provide..." One of the assassins furrowed his eyebrows. "Are you perhaps one of my customers?" The mule smiled. "No matter what time we are in, the strongest weapon will always be information." The mule had just indirectly implied that he was the one 'smuggling' the wrong information. His aim was pretty simple. It was to lure them out and defeat them. Though, there were a few things he miscalculated, especially the two assassins before him. "I believe that you have to take responsibility for what happened." One of the assassins locked on to him. "Are you perhaps talking about the Hacfield family's sole successor?" The mule smirked. "Since you know, you better follow us." "Even though you guys are assassins, why do you look like his guardians?" The mule snorted. "Don't you know that you are only getting taken advantage of? Killing him indirectly... It's basically the same as forcing you to eliminate all threats that can kill him directly. Just like this foolish terrorist." In that instant, one assassin disappeared as his blade suddenly reached the mule's neck. "If I were you, I wouldn't do this, Red Dagger." "Do you think we're afraid of you?" "Of course not. But I'm sure that the Red Dagger doesn't want to get into trouble with a bunch of mercenaries, right?" "You bastard..." It seemed that they understood who the mule was talking about. "That's enough. We're leaving." The other assassin harrumphed. He looked pretty annoyed when he disappeared into the darkness. The other assassin also disappeared, leaving the mule alone. Yes, alone. The mule couldn't help but look down, seeing the terrorist captain already dead. Even he didn't know when they killed this person as there was no sound whatsoever. He scratched the back of his head while muttering, "What a troublesome bunch."
