Deep within the ancient castle, Hades‘ expression shifted and changed rapidly, his grip on the phone
almost crushing it.
“Withdraw from Wyverna, and reveal the bounty employer…‘
Two matters, both striking at the core. Once the assassin withdrew, the entire underground market of
the Wyverna would be abandoned. Disclosing information about the employer completely violated the
rules of the assassin world. Who would seek his services for bounties in the future?
However, there was no choice but to comply. After all, this concerned the legendary and
overwhelmingly powerful figure, the Lord of the Temple of War, who was undefeated in battle-
If he gave the command, wiping out the Blood Assassins organization would be as easy as flipping a
hand.
“Since it involves that man…” Hades took a deep breath, finally speaking slowly, “I can tell you the
identity of the employer. She is Helen Eberherd, the wife of Neil Chesire, the head of the Chesire family
in Ol‘ Mare.
“In addition, the Chameleon Enchantress has been ordered to go to the Wyverna to carry out the
bounty mission.

The
last words barely left his mouth when Alexander hung up the phone, his index finger pointing into the
air.
The Chameleon Enchantress stiffened before Alexander. A finger–sized blood hole appeared on her
forehead, and the sparkle in her eyes vanished instantly. She was killed, right then and there.
“Ther
Chameleon Enchantress is now dead.”
Hades listened to the beeping on the phone and closed his eyes. It took more than ten seconds before
he opened them again, a deep sense of powerlessness appearing on his face.
Not that he did not want to save the Chameleon Enchantress, but it was impossible to save her.
Anything related to the Lord of the Temple of War, nothing could stand against the Lord of War. Not
even if all the assassin organizations in the world joined forces, not to mention the Blood Assassins.
“Alex Alexander.”
Amber came to her senses as the Chameleon Enchantress breathed her last. Trembling, she walked to
Alexander’s side, her voice shaky. “Did you find the person who placed the bounty?”
Patrick also walked over, his complexion still a bit pale. “Alexander, this is not a trivial matter. If we can’t
find the mastermind, more assassins will come. We’d better…”
“I know,” said Alexander, his expression briefly solemn before breaking into a smile. “Dad, it’s been a
long night. Please take George to the hospital for bandaging. I’ll take Amber out for a while.”
Alexander took hold of Amber’s small hand and entered the descending elevator.
Luca drove, and the bright red Porsche once again set off, heading straight for the Chesire family
estate.

The night was pitch black. The once bustling Chesire family estate stood empty.
Neil had met a tragic death, and Jerome was killed by Alexander himself. Only Neil’s wife, Helen, and
their toddler son remained. They guarded the desolate estate with deep–seated hatred..
A loud cry shattered the silence of the estate. The infant in the swaddle wailed, looking up at the
unsteady figures. His throat quickly grew hoarse.
“Auntie, Ismael!” As the Porsche just entered the courtyard, Amber shouted. She stumbled out of the
car and knelt on the ground, covering her face and crying in pain as she looked at Helen’s hanging
body and the wailing Ismael.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven though she knew that it was Helen who issued the bounty, she could not help but feel
heartbroken. Everything left by Neil had finally disappeared into thin air, leaving her less–than–two–
year–old cousin as the only bloodline he left behind.
“Take Ismael back. Give him the best education, and make sure he doesn’t follow in Neil’s footsteps,”
Alexander said, shaking his head slowly.
He gestured for Luca to take care of Helen’s body. Then, he approached Amber, supporting her arm
and intentionally changing the subject.
“Hey the situation in Zabaleta has been resolved. Wanda can take on the role of our brand ambassador
at any time. For our first collaboration, where would be the most suitable location for shooting the
promotional advertisement?”
Speaking of group work, Amber quickly wiped away her tears, handed Ismael to Luca, and choked
back tears as she knelt on the ground.
“My mind is in chaos right now. As for the advertising… Alexander, you decide. I have no objections.”
Alexander nodded and, after a brief pause, smiled. “Among the nearby cities, if we talk about the best
environment, there’s only one…
“Sunhaven.”
