Chapter 116 116: Daddy Hitman.

Leo traveled through the dark woods on a bike, and he found that the rider was using a night-vision google to move through the clutter quickly. His moves were controlled and Leo didn't feel unsafe at all. It was as if this man had used this method many times. They traveled for three hours before the person said, "Sir, we have arrived in the vicinity of Harden Cliff." Hearing the voice, Leo found that the rider was surprisingly a girl.He nodded and said, "Thank you, would you be waiting here when I finish the job." The person nodded and then Leo got off the ground and vanished in the darkness. He was also using a night-vision, specially prepared for him by Marco, because he knew about the conditions here better than Leo. Ayume Harden was a teenager when he rode his bike up the cliff on a rainy sunday. After that sunday, his life changed, because he won a lottery. At that time he didn't think much, and life continued, but when he was chasing his first girlfriend, she dared him to ride a bike up the hill if he wanted to marry her, and he did, she married him, and bought over huge fortunes in tow. After that, he climbed this hill every sunday, one time the government wanted to initiate a campaign of demolition and Ayume Harden intervened. He directly bought out the hill and the land surrounding it. That was how rich he was, too bad, he made the wrong enemy. Leo moved through the woods, and trekked the lengths of the cliff in utter darkness, however, his speed was so quick and movements were so efficient that it seemed like he was a monkey. No, it was all thanks to the boosted attributes. He had the stamina of a horse, and he also had practiced all these moves in the virtual realm. The young man stepped out of the woods, and he found that the place was calm, there were no residents in the surroundings, and only a huge number of vacant houses standing on the ground, and the only place that had electricity was the road where Ayume Harden would be riding his bike. He found the summit, the road that reached the highest point wasn't exactly the peak of the hill. The security had sealed the road, and there was a fence around the hill that Leo had to cut through. He looked around the place and then made his way to the woods that were on the other side of the road. He found a vantage point that allowed him to sit in the dark and have the complete view of the summit parking. He knelt on the ground, and calculated the distance, it wasn't more than several ten meters, he could kill Ayume Harden by throwing a big stone to his head. The wait commenced, it was already seven in the night and the sky had already turned dark. This was how things were in this location, sun rose early and set early as well. Leo found himself to be very agitated and closed his eyes to calm down. He only opened his eyes when he heard the light sound of an engine rumbling. He looked at the uphill climb of the road and after a few minutes, the target was in sight. Leo peeked through the scope, but soon he frowned. This wasn't Ayume Harden, the guy was climbing slowly, while looking around. Leo clicked his tongue and hid behind a tree. Without making any movement. Turned out the guards were all very serious about their jobs, they would come first to check if the surroundings were clear. The man on the bike turned around and then rode back downhill, and the sound of the engine only sounded after thirty more minutes. The person rode very steadily and in a few minutes, he appeared on the summit and parked his bike in the parking, took off his helmet and walked up to the railing to overlook the city. Searᴄh the nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Leo had aimed for the head, but then he decided to aim for the right shoulder, and squeezed the trigger. He was using a small submachine gun, which was suppressed, and so the sound was only as loud as someone spitting on the side. Ayume Harden felt a wave of pain and wailed, "ARGHHH!!!" Leo quickly got out of his cover, dashed over to Ayume Hatsume, and stuffed a handful of wild grass he picked up from the woods just now. This choked the middle-aged man, and Leo said, "You have a lot of questions and you have a lot to say as well, however, the only thing that you can do at the moment is to understand that you have no control over your life. The moment you decided to fund the terror invasion against the Clover nation, you signed your death warrant." Ayume Harden's pupils constricted, he tried to struggle, but Leo shot him in the abdomen at point blank range. The struggle immediately came to a halt. Leo then shot Ayume in the heart, and said, "You have ten seconds to die." Then he stood up from the ground, and emptied the magazine on his face, disfiguring him completely. Ayume could not be more dead, even if he wanted to. Leo then searched the corpse and the equipment, to assure there weren't any cameras hidden. After a five minute check up, and double checking everything, the young man rushed down the summit vanishing into the dark woods. Ayume was deader than dead. His men would take some time to locate him and that would be enough for Leo to cross the woods. After traversing through the woods twice in an hour, Leo was somewhat slow. Still he managed to cross the fence again, by leaping over it and then found the rider waiting for him. The two of them slowly rode away. They moved slowly because the engine, although muffled, still gave off a little sound, and if any human caught it, they might chase them. Ayume was a man who grew up in the border town, and thus it became very easy for them to handle this assignment, however, not everyone on the list had such a story of superstition. Also, after the death of one of them, Leo was sure that the old foxes would surely gather together and give up on their particular habits for sometime. Along with that came the heightened security. This was one reason why Leo didn't read these files sent to him by Marco and decided to take out the easy one first. They returned to the border, and as Leo was getting off, the sun had climbed up on the horizon, he said, "You did good, have Marco send me your details, and I would have you transfer to Angkor City, you can fit into my Wife or Daughter's security detail. If you want to, that is." The girl nodded and said, "Thank you, Sir." That was it, then Leo got back in the car, where the old driver was, and drove back to the city where he was supposed to shop a few things. They had a small villa in this place, and it was very tight on security, so they went to the villa. It was too late last night when Leo came, and now it was too early to go out and shop. Leo decided to rest a bit and wait for the word from Marco before deciding what he wants to do. … In the morning, after a quick bite, the young man came to the most high class market. Though this was the border nation, but it was very high capital generating place in the world and so, the infrastructure was all developed on a scale similar to that of any other big city. They came to the market that was just opening up, and Leo asked, "Ben, which shop is trust-worthy in this place?" There were so many people dealing in the product that he wanted Leo to make up his mind. Ben, the driver, said, "Sir, over the years of being here, I have set up a shop by myself, if you want to, you can take a look there. Otherwise, we can go to Elegance Jewels." Leo was surprised when he found that the driver had a shop that was dealing in Crimson Jade. He looked at him and said, "Let's head to your shop." Ben nodded and respectfully led him through the sparse crowd, and they came to a medium level shop called, "Carter Jewel." Ben spoke sheepishly, "The General Manager has a share in it, and so, I named the shop after her. It is a good brand name, now." Leo understood what was going on, Ellysa Carter was a high business acumen woman, so it was obvious. After they entered the shop, a few sales women greeted them, and Ben said, "Show the President what he wants, and be honest with the pricing." Crimson Jade was a gemstone mined in this region, and it was similar to Rubies, but the crimson of this gemstone was always darker in the core, and lighter on the outside. While many people scoffed at it, this Crimson Jade was proven to aid in blood circulation due to its pseudo magnetic nature. Leo wanted to use it to make a set of jewelry. He selected a few big raw gems, and talked with Ben to get them processed and shipped over to Angkor City, before he picked up a couple of diamond studded butterfly earrings with a single cut crimson jade in the center and said, "Pack these for me, I will bring them back for a little goblin." Ben smiled and got to work.
