However, what Antonio did not expect was that before he stood up, Liam suddenly kicked him on his knee.At the sound of a crack, a bone in Antonio's leg was broken. He immediately dropped to his knees in front of Liam.Antonio did not think Liam would attack him without any warning. After his leg was broken and his kneecap hit hard on the floor, he grunted in pain. His face was flushed, and it was only because he clenched his teeth as hard as he could he did not scream.Morrison was so shocked that his eyes widened. He could not believe what he just sawWas Liam out of his mind?Antonio was the head of the Scorpion Gang from Greenfield Town. That was the biggest mafia gang there.Antonio was practically like a king in Greenfield Town. He held the same status as Eaden did in Drunham City. People in Greenfield Town, Drunham City, or any other cities would have to be respectful to him.However, Liam did not take Antonio seriously at all. Not only did he reprimand Antonio like he wa
Seeing that he would not be swayed, Sunniva finally gave up and stepped aside to watch in silence. Meanwhile, Antonio was trying his absolute best to ignore the excruciating pain in his leg and kept his head bowed low. "Liam, what do I have to do to satisfy you? Do you want money? Women? If money is what you want, just give me a price, and I'll get someone to transfer the amount right into your account. If you want a woman, just tell me what you like and I'll personally deliver one right to your doorstep!"I can give you anything, so long as you show me mercy!"Although he was pleading for Liam to spare his life, Antonio was still the head of the Scorpion Gang after all, and would not allow himself to remain in such a lowly position. Therefore, after a few minutes of attempted persuasion, he gave up kneeling and instead shifted into a sitting position. Meanwhile, Liam laid back against his chair, jiggling his leg idly as though they were talking about the weather. He soon turned
His mind had been taken up by his fury, and all he could think of was how to give Liam a piece of his mind!Unfortunately, reality was not as picture perfect as he hoped. Liam sneered when he saw Morrison lumbering toward him. The next moment, he raised his arm and slapped Morrison hard across the cheek. He struck Morrison with such force that Morrison swiveled around in circles before finally falling to the ground in a dizzied heap.Liam then turned to stare coldly at Antonio. "You can either choose to hit him or be hit. The ball is in your court."Antonio, who just a minute ago had been hesitating to take Liam's offer, immediately made a snap decision. He staggered over to Morrison, dragging his broken leg behind him, and called out frantically, "Don't hit me! I'll do it! I'll slap him as you asked!"Then, he grabbed Morrison by the collar, all nostalgia of their long friendship having been thrown out the window, and slapped him with all the strength he could muster. Smack!
As for Morrison's employees and assistant, the three of them were crouched in a corner, not daring to move even a muscle. Antonio picked himself off the ground and smoothed down his wrinkled clothes. Then, he wiped the blood from his mouth and glanced at Morrison. "Alright! Cut the crap! He's gone now!"Morrison let out a sigh of relief and stood up, wiping the blood from his lip as well. "What should we do now? Are you going to let him get away with humiliating us like this?" he snarled, glaring at the door that Liam had just walked out of. His beady eyes were narrowed in malice.Antonio, too, was staring at the door with equal fury. He then turned to glance at his defeated guards, all of them still slumped on the ground, and felt a jolt of fiery rage course through him. He had eight War Kings as guards, but Liam had managed to kill three, severely injure four, and leave the final one utterly crippled beyond measure. He was as good as dead now!Antonio felt a twinge of pain s
This burly man was one of the Scorpion Gang's most infamous leaders. He was also the head of the Soul Reaver Guild, and was known to his subordinates as the Almighty Tiger!!His real name was Wade Crusoe, and because of his position as the head of the Soul Reaver Guild, he was revered by the citizens of Greenfield Town. He had earned himself a great reputation due to his cruel, ruthless ways and was easily one of the most feared gang leaders in the Scorpion Gang!Every gang member in Greenfield Town would shudder at the mere mention of his name! Even Antonio respected him greatly and often proudly assigned the most challenging tasks to him. Rumors had it that Wade was most likely the one who would be appointed to take Antonio's place once the latter stepped down!This no doubt added even more to Wade's terrifying reputation.One would have to possess extraordinary talent to earn Antonio's respect, and this was true of Wade. Although he looked brawny, he was actually very observan
Wade and his men were utterly stunned when they saw Antonio appear in the lobby, hobbling on one leg.Horror and fury coursed through Wade's veins when he did a double take and noticed Antonio's swollen face and countless injuries. His eyelid twitched. Who dared to lay a finger on his master? Antonio was a well-respected government official in Greenfield Town, feared by both gangsters and citizens alike. Even the wealthiest of Greenfield Town had to bow before Antonio to show their respect; such was the influence that he had in the city!His power was known far and wide, and even Eaden, one of the most notorious gangsters in Drunham City, feared him!Who would dare to do such a thing to him? Not to mention that Antonio had eight guards, all of whom were War Kings, accompanying him day and night. Who could possibly have committed such a heinous crime?Wade frowned at this and glanced around Antonio, but could not see any of his guards. His heart lurched in his chest as a bad feeli
Antonio scoffed at this, but it seemed to have soothed him a little, for his furrowed brows began to relax. All of a sudden, something crossed his mind, and he frowned once more. "Why are the men from Soul Reaver Guild the only ones here? Where are the others?"To which Wade quickly replied, "Sir, the rest are already on their way. They were in the Northern District when I called them, which is further away from here, so it's taking them longer to arrive. They'll be here in another half an hour."As for the Allegiant Guild, they are out on a mission and will not be able to make it back to Drunham City in time."Antonio frowned at this. He glanced around him at the sixty or so men, wondering whether their combined forces would take down Liam.Logically speaking, although Liam had single-handedly defeated eight War Kings, he could not possibly overpower six dozen men at the same time! It just was not possible!Antonio was relieved by this, and waved his hand at Wade in dismissal. "I
They were just about to leave when they heard a scuffle from the lobby, followed by the sound of objects breaking and terrified screams. Liam and Sunniva followed the noise back to the hotel lobby, where they witnessed the hotel employees and guests being held hostage by Wade's men. Some of the citizens were sporting bruises and black eyes from their rough manhandling.This infuriated Liam greatly, which propelled him to shout and make his presence known. He could not tolerate anyone picking on innocent civilians! Anyone who had a problem with him should take it out on him, instead of picking on honest, hard-working citizens!A glimmer of malice flashed through Antonio's eyes, and his swollen face twisted into a sneer upon seeing Liam. Wade, on the other hand, felt a chill go down his spine the moment his gaze met that of Liam's. He could practically feel the power crackling through the air. Liam and Sunniva's appearance soon caught everyone's attention. One could hardly resist
