Casper opened his eyes discreetly to check on the Yaeger family’s subordinates, figuring that the man should be hidden among them.

Sure enough, a man walked out from amidst the subordinates with a self-conceited look in his eyes as if nothing could reach him. “Of course. This psychedelic incense isn’t visible, nor does it have any odor after being lit. It’s harmless to the human body after being inhaled, but those who had ingested Silencer, which is a drug I mixed, before that would quietly lose consciousness.”

He walked up to Victoria, who was still unconscious, with a vicious glare in his eyes. “B*tch, you’re finally in my clutches!”

All of a sudden, Darian questioned, “But one of them managed to say something before fainting. Your drug didn’t seem as effective as you claim to be.”

That man was slightly startled. “Impossible. Anybody should faint the moment you light the psychedelic incense. He shouldn’t have been able to speak at all.”

As if realizing something, the man leaped backward in an instant while two figures shot up from the ground to launch themselves at him.

The young man with white hair, Jake, resolutely launched himself forward as well in an attempt to shield the man.

Three shadows traveled across the projection on the walls as the three figures dashed past the stained glass lamp. Following two muffled noises, Jake and Gunther were sent flying backward with blood trickling down the corners of their mouths. From the looks of it, neither got out of it unscathed.

However, Casper managed to capture that man from the Stalling family by pressing him onto the floor with one knee on his back and choking on his neck with his left hand. All the while, he also pointed a gun at the back of the man’s head.

“I was guessing that someone like you would have a gun on your person. I guess I’m right.” Casper lifted his gaze to look around. Because he possessed a gun, nobody dared act rashly.

“Why were you not affected by the drug?” The man was in disbelief, for he had expected the drug he mixed to work and that the Hunters would only make a move after making sure that everybody at the main table had eaten the food.
