After the incident at the academy, I was walking home when it suddenly clicked, the assassin! I forgot about her and she followed me that day.
I immediately called Don Albert and said to pick me up. Albert came in his Ferrari 488 GTB to pick me up and it attracted almost everybody's attention. I sighed and sat in his car hastily and he drove away.
While in his car I said to Albert "Can you be a little low-key and not bring this car next time?"
Albert said, "But Master I think this car suits you."
I replied " Tell me Albert for how long did you have this car "
Albert replied after thinking "It's been about 3 years since I got it at an international convention."
I said, "The Ferrari 488 GTD is a rare car and you must have been using it daily for your needs am I right?"
Albert nodded.
I continued " Since you drive this car every day then people would immediately know that this is your car. So would one of my friends react if they saw me climb into don Albert's car?"
Albert thought about it and said, "Your right Master I apologize."
I waved my hand and said, "No need to apologize, just make sure you don't repeat it."
Albert nodded and asked, "Master where are we going?"
I calmly replied, " To where you hide the assassin."
Albert nodded heavily and hit the pedal.
In Albert's den, many people were sitting around drinking and enjoying the food.
When Albert entered all of them stood as a sign of respect for him but when I entered everyone sat down and returned to their usual tasks.
I was not surprised because this was the first time I came to Albert's den. Albert saw this and was about to shoot but I waved at him indicating there was no need.
Albert nodded and showed me the way, this gesture made everyone surprised because Albert was the king of the Underworld and a martial artist. Since marital artists, were the epitome they respect Albert more than anything so his gesture of showing me the way surprised everyone.
I noticed their expression and just smiled.
We walked through his den and finally reached the place where the assassin was kept.
The room was guarded by 5 men each with a gun in hand. When they saw Albert they immediately made their way and we were escorted to a narrow hall where the room was.
I entered the room and saw the assassin tied up and struggling to free herself.
I said to Albert " Leave me in the room and stand by"
Albert nodded and closed the door. Now only me and the assassin were left in the room.
I took a chair and sat directly in front of the assassin.
I looked at the assassin and removed the tape from her mouth. The assassin looked at me and said, "What do you want from me?"
I said calmly " What do I want I should be the one asking that question to you. I remember that day that you made periodic sounds while following me and I was intrigued. Yeah and also sorry about that collarbone I might hit you too hard. "
The assassin looked at me and laughed " In all of my years and this is the first time someone said sorry to me. "
I ignored her laugh and said " I said what had to be said now it's my time to ask questions. "
I looked at her and said sternly " Who sent you after me and why did you make yourself know when following me? "
The assassin shrugged and said nothing. I repeated the same question but she still said nothing.
My patience was running out so I asked one last time "Tell me your purpose."
The assassin still said nothing and turned her face to the side.
My patience ran out so I released the energy of a peak Mortal-level cultivation.
The assassin turned her head to me in horror as my energy started to get rampant.
The whole room was trembling and the walls started to crack. The assassin was blown away by the energy to the corner of the room.
My energy started to tear the wall apart and some of it escaped out and into the main den.
It felt like an earthquake came in the upper rooms and the entire den started trembling.
I eventually stooped my energy from my energy and stabilized myself.
The assassin looked at me in horror "Y-y-y-you reached peak M-mortal level Cultivation already!! "
I smiled and approached the assassin. The Assassin got so scared that her body trembled and started hyperventilating.
I looked at the assassin and said " Now that you know my secret you have only 2 choices the first is to tell me everything you know and be loyal to me for the rest of your life or you stay here and become a toy for Albert's.
The assassin looked horrified and hurriedly bowed and said "I will stay loyal to you please don't let me keep my pride and honor."
I smiled at her response and said "Good choice now it's time for you to spill the beans, Who are you, and why the fuck were you following me?."
The assassin gulped and said in a weak voice
"My name is Natasha and I work for an organization called the " Last Wish".
They take missions of assassination, protection, and many more. The head of the organization is the friend of Don Albert the king of the Underworld. Because of his relationship our status is high enough to attract the attention of the big shots. We do all the dirty work for them."
I suddenly stopped her and asked, "The organization leader knows Don Albert?"
The assassin nodded.
I started smiling and said, "This will shock you so you better clench up sweetheart."
Don't call me sweetheart you moth-"
I shouted "Albert get your ass in here "
The already battered door suddenly opened and Albert came in and stood in front of me and said "Master Danial you called."
"Do you know an organization with the name Last Wish
Albert nodded vigorously and said, " Yes Master The head of the Last wish James carter is a very good friend of mine ".
The assassin started laughing as Albert was talking and said " Pahhh stop your acting and drop it do you think I wouldn't recognize Don Albert, the King of the Underground world."
I wanted to laugh so hard but maintained a straight face and just looked at Albert.
Albert understood and made a call immediately.
The call soon connected and a voice came "Heyy Albert my friend where have you been I have been looking for you, my guy. Come on come to my place it's been a long time since we partied man."
The assassin recognized that voice and was dumbfounded, her world was falling upside down. She couldn't even sit properly when she heard her Boss's voice.
Albert didn't reply but made a snorting sound.
The assassin's boss said "Hey Albert is there a problem? Is everything okay?."
Albert replied angrily "No James just yesterday one of your assassins tried to kill my Master and you telling me it's okay!"
James on the other hand was stunned as he said cautiously "Is this the boss that you were talking about yesterday."
Albert didn't reply which made James nervous.
James said weakly " I-is the boss with you right now?"
Before Albert could say anything I said "He is Mrs. James and let's say he's running out of patience."
After that, the only thing I could hear was the breaking of glasses and a voice saying "I will be right there please wait for a while!"
And the phone was cut. I looked at Albert in confusion and he replied "He will be here in 5 minutes and he's very scared let me tell you that "
I laughed at his remark and thought I should wait for a while.
