Free Web NovelChapter 32: A Glimpse Of His Killing Intent
Amon continued staring at the screen, surprised that his plan hadnt worked out.
’It can also be considered to have worked out to a certain extent.’ Amon realised.
There was still no need for the butcher to reveal himself.
The monarch of death would handle everything from the shadows.
Just as he thought of this he felt a mental tug on his mind.
Closing his eyes briefly, he connected his perception to moon. It came subconciously and natural to him like breathing.
Instantly, amon’s vision changed. He appeared in the abandoned warehouse.
Glancing around he realised he was seeing things through moon’s eyes.
’This can be quite helpful when it comes to certain enemies.’ Amon nodded to himself and disconected the perception.
It seemed moon just wanted to show him the skill.
Kayla finally sensed amon and turned around, her expression still filled with worry.
"It seems there’s curfew today so youre unable to head out."
"Yeah," amon nodded and walked to sit on the sofa with her.
"The media says theres someone else killing indiscriminately like the butcher from before, only this one is even more terrifying."
Hearing her words amon sighed.
"That’s a good thing, right?" he smirked, "at least we can get to spend time together."
"At the cost of people’s lives?" kayla frowned, staring at amon with furrowed brows.
"That’s not what I meant."
Kayla sighed and leaned towards him, laying her head on his laps as she stared up at the ceiling.
"This one seems even more deadly, more than hundred dead in a single night. What will happen the next night? And thenight after that? Will everyone in the city end up getting wiped out?"
Sensing her sorry, amon gently stroke her hair.
"Don’t worry, if that happens I’ll protect you."
’Of course that wont happen," amon thought to himself internally.
"How will you protect me?" kayla chuckled slightly, not taking his words to heart.
Still, she didnt regret marrying amon. In her eyes, he was still the perfect man no matter the situation.
While the couple enjoyed their time together, within a designated room, the members of the demon child faction discussed.
Previously, the headquarters had sent 30 C-rank fighters to deal with whoever was protecting amon and his family.
After studying their movements for a while, they were certain that there would be no issues with their mission.
Leading them was the strongest of the C-rank fighters.
According to reports, he could even contend with a few low ranking B-rank hunters. His name was jethro, a middled aged man with a scar running down his right cheek.
"The mission this time is brief. We dont want to attract unwanted attention to ourselves.
"Twenty of you will surround the house. Five of you will deal with the couple and the remaining five will capture the little infant while guaranteeing her safety. Is my order understood?" the leader asked sternly.
"Yes sir!" all twenty-nine hunters answered simulteanously.
At the same time, one of them couldnt help asking.
"Sir, our force is enough to wipe out the cold moon district, so why dont we eliminate them?"
"Eliminate the cold moon district?" the leader sneered, "if you dont want to lose your life you better do as I said!" he glared at them coldly.
Glancing around he noticed a few with suspicious and hesitant look.
After a sigh he explained, "this is the hometown of the tyrant. As long as we destroy it we’d attract the tyrant to our faction. Do you now understand why we can’t destroy it in the slightest? As long as we just operate silently, capturing the infants within the city, it wont attract the attention of such a behemoth!"
"What? The tyrant? The S-rank hunter?"
"How can the tyrant be from such a small place?"
Mummurs instantly arose from amidst the crowd as they questioned amongst themselves, unable to come up with an answer.
"Be swift with the mission. Everyone get in!" the leader gave the order as a black truck pulled over, "inside there are masks to hide your identity so you won’t attract the attention of the government forces if your real identity is discovered."
As soon as he finished speaking, he entered the driver seat of the truck.
The remaining twenty nine steadily rushed in, taking one black mask each from the counter.
Before long they’d entered into the truck.
The truck engine roared to life and before long the truck had sped off into the distance heading in the direction of amon’s house.
Over the past few days since the incident with the butcher, they’d been keeping tabs on his house.
According to the news they received from above, the little infant was very special and no harm was allowed to come to her.
Because of this, they had to be extremely cautious with the manner in which they handled her.
"What are you doing out in the roa—" suddenly, they arrived at a check point.
Surrounding the check point was a police vehicle and two men.
Bang! Bang!
Before the first man could finish speaking, bullets exploded violently and tore through both men skull claiming their lives.
"The gun demon..."
"I heard he’s learned under the A-rank hunter, gun devil who speciliases in weaponizing armed weapons."
The crowd at the back were surprised by the show of power, the men were unable to react before they were killed.
Sighing in relief, the group felt that their safety was in good hands.
With this they could easily handle the family.
From the distance they’d been unable to run away in time as they’d be hunted down by the gun demon.
It was clear that the moonstone family was doomed.
The ride continued smoothly and relatively peacefully.
There were no humans in sight so the streets were deserted.
Aside from encountering a few police officers on the way, which the gun demon swiftly dealth with, there were no further issues.
In moments, they finally arrived before a lone, bungalow located in a slightly rural area.
The skies were bright and the sun hung coolly in the skies, casting its warm soft glow on the surroundings.
Clad in black clothes with black masks over their faces the men quickly rushed out from the truck themoment they arrived.
"Quick, surround the appartment!"
The moment they arrived, Jethro gave the order.
Already knowing what to do, the group of twenty weilding all sorts of weapons quickly surrounded the house. ƒreewebɳovel.com
The remaining nine stared at Jethro waiting for their order.
"Head in and eliminate the couple." Jethro ordered and took out a gun from his pocket.
Inside the house...
Kayla suddenly glanced up at amon with a frown.
"There seems to be a commotion going on outsi..."
Her words drifted off when she noticed the dark look on amon’s face.
His face carried a terrrifying coldness that chilled her to the depths of her heart.
Subconciously, his bloodlust leaked out from his body, freezing kayla in her tracks.
She felt suffocated as though she couldnt breath.
’Is... this still the same man I married?’ kayla thought with a terrified expression on her face.
Moments ago, as they people were already rushing in this direction, amon’s danger sense had already began ringing, alerting him of the danger.
’Who could it be this time?’ amon muttered internally, his killing intent gradually becoming overwelming.
