The Author's POV

Chapter 220

"Where is my son and who are you? Answer me!"

Staring at the masked figure before him, Jhanna shouted out loud. His deep voice echoed inside of the factory. Apart from the masked figure he could not see anything else.

Where was his son? Who was he? Why did he target him?

Jhanna wanted answers.

"Sir, he's no threat. He is only ranked E"

With his eyes squinted, one of the guards next to Jhanna tapped him on the shoulder and reported what he was able to observe. Without a doubt, the masked man was only rank.

"Pheew, okay"

Jhanna instantly sighed in relief.

Knowing that the opponent was only E ranked calmed him down a bit. His two bodyguards were both ranked. A measly ranked posed no threat to him. Staring at the masked figure before him, Jhanna spoke in a more confident tone.

"I give you an option, either tell me where my son is, or I'll make you tell me where my son is. I'm not sure if you can tell, but I have two bodyguards with me. Both ranked C. With your measly strength there is no way you can fight them so I suggest you give up"

"Hmm, that is indeed true"

Staring at Jhanna before me, I smirked.

'What an idiot'

What he said was indeed true. If it was just me by myself I would without a doubt be taken down by his two bodyguards. Unfortunately for him, I wasn't alone.

Lightly glancing at the top of the factory, I caught a glimpse of two yellow eyes staring at Jhanna from above. They were the eyes of a predator.

'Good, it looks like Angelica is ready...'

Unaware of his predicament, Jhanna crossed his arms in triumph. In response, I raised my hands up.

"Good, so you know your limit. Okay, now tell me. What have you done to my son"

"Sorry but unless you hear me out I can't say anything"

"I see, so you want to play this way..."

'this is fine too. This saves me a lot of trouble. Since you don't want to play it the easy way, I'll let you experience the hard way...'

Pointing at the masked figure, Jhanna ordered his to guards.

"Get him!"

Nodding their heads, the two guards looked at each other as an overbearing pressure started exuding from their bodies. Clenching their fists, they prepared to move.

However...

'”Spurt! '”Spurt!

Blood spilled in the air and the two holes appeared on the bodyguard's chest. With his eyes wide open, Jhanna witnessed his two bodyguards get attacked from behind. It all happened so fast that he was unable to identify who the perpetrator was.

"What happened!?"

Thud! Thud!

With two large thuds, the two bodyguards fell to the ground. They were dead. Staring at the corpses of his two bodyguards, Jhanna's mouth hung wide open.

'What's going on?'

He wasn't able to see a thing. It all happened so fast that his bodyguards could react at all. We were talking about two ranked bodyguards. Some of the best of the best. Instantly Jhanna's body shuddered as fear seeped in.

'Calm down, calm down, you've been through worse situation. Try to gauge what the masked guy wants'

Jhanna forcefully calmed himself down.

"I apologize for my previous behavior. Please tell me what you need of me. If there's anything I can do I'll try my best to please your needs"

Bringing his hands together, Jhanna bowed. Having been blackmailed for ransom before, he knew of the standard procedure.

He was very clever. By acting this way, he was hoping for a negotiation without coming off as rude. Whoever the young boy before him was, he wasn't an opponent he could fight.

By acting this way he would be able to preserve his and his son's life. He knew when to attack and when to back down.

'huhu, all you want is money, right? I've got plenty of that. Whoever you are, even if you have someone strong backing you, you won't carelessly kill someone like me who has such a high status right? I've already memorized your voice and frame, even if you're wearing a mask I'll make sure to hunt you down once I return'
