Chapter 67- Request
V looked at Markus for a while as if he was reading through his mind like an open book. Not many people could handle his piercing gaze and even fewer could completely resist it.
Markus wasn't one of them but he could at least keep a fairly normal face. After what seemed to be a few minutes, V shifted his gaze to the cup of coffee.
"Guild matters, Mr. Markus. You know the drill. I need to discuss an important matter with you regarding the recent events." He spoke in a cold tone.
Markus' hand instinctively gripped the coffee cup even harder as he waited for V to continue.
"After the end of your family's duel with the Charlamagnes, the news spread quickly like wildfire in the underworld. Of course, it reached all the high officers and I must say… They weren't happy." V's tone became a little colder at the end. "Losing a family as strong as the Charlemagnes is a huge blow to the Guild's influence on the underworld. I'm sure you already predicted that."
