"Is that so? I'll be waiting then," Sebastian scoffed."So you really want to do this the hard way, don't you?" Mateo huffed. "I really hope you can leave Riverville alive!" Sebastian ignored him and pulled Rosalie backstage to pay for the truffle.Mateo's expression was thunderous as he watched Rosalie and Sebastian leave."Motherfucker!" he gritted out. "I'm going to kill him!""I don't care how, but you are going to get me that truffle tonight," Penelope threatened Mateo coldly before putting her sunglasses back on.After that, she left Tiger Pavilion without another word.Mateo frowned and thought about what to do before he pulled out his phone."Call the Blacksmith! For what? I want him to kill someone!" he barked into the phone and hung up before he rushed after Penelope.Meanwhile, Sebastian and Rosalie had already paid and were waiting to collect the truffle.The hostess then walked over and handed Sebastian the truffle with a smile."Mr. Ballard, Boss has said that
Sebastian simply laughed coldly in response. "What if I don't hand it over?" he asked."Then die!" the guard roared and swung the dagger right at Sebastian's chest.Sebastian's expression darkened, and he raised his hand to grab the dagger handle.While the guard was still recovering from the shock of getting countered, Sebastian applied some force and broke the dagger into pieces.The guard paled, and he looked like he had just seen a ghost. However, before he could do anything else, Sebastian flung the broken dagger handle at the guard's chest, piercing it!The guard stared wide-eyed at Sebastian as he clutched his chest and fell lifelessly to the ground.A pool of blood soon formed around his lifeless body, and the remaining guards whipped out their daggers and charged at Sebastian."Amateurs," Sebastian scoffed and attacked them.The four guards were then thrown backward unceremoniously by a force and spat out mouthfuls of fresh blood as they howled in pain.Mateo glared
"Don't worry, I've promised Mr. Mateo that I would leave you alive. So you won't die so easily," the old man said casually.Right now, his hand was only half an arm away from Sebastian's neck.Rosalie was terrified, and she exclaimed, "Sebastian! Dodge!"However, Sebastian did nothing of the sort. Instead, he noted coldly, "That's the Black Eagle Sect's Eagle Talon technique.""Oh? So you know what this is? You have a good eye," the old man said. "It's too bad that you offended Mr. Mateo!"The old man cackled again as he shot his hand at Sebastian with more force.Sebastian shook his head slightly as he sneered, "It's just an Eagle Talon. It will never be a Dragon Claw!"After that, Sebastian's fingers curved like claws, and he swung his hand right at the old man. Wisps of golden energy swirled around his fingers, and he grabbed the old man's hand. There was the distinct sound of a dragon's roar as he did so.The old man was shocked as he stared shakily at his hand. "Impossib
Sebastian flashed him a smile. "Is that so? Let's see who's the real victim tonight.""Crazy bastard!" the old man roared. "Die!"After that, he stomped a foot before appearing right in front of Sebastian and swinging a fist at him. His fist was as fast as the speed of light, and was headed straight for Sebastian's chest.At such a close distance, unless his opponent was a Grandmaster, it would be practically impossible to dodge his attack.In the Blacksmith's eyes, Sebastian was powerful, but there was no way he was a Grandmaster. After all, Sebastian was still so young! So, he was confident that this one blow would kill Sebastian. Seeing as how Sebastian had not made a move to dodge his blow, the Blacksmith sneered, "Did I scare you stupid, kid? Die!"Right after that, the Blacksmith's fist made contact with something. He thought that he had hit Sebastian, but when he realized what had really happened, he was stupefied.Somehow, Sebastian had casually caught the Blacksmith's
"You bastard! You broke my hand … I'll never forgive you! You'll never get away with this!" Mateo babbled angrily as he clutched his hand.Sebastian peered at Mateo, who was writhing in pain on the ground, in disgust."Mr. Cortez, this is my warning to your family. If you insist on causing trouble for me, I'll make sure that the entirety of the Cortez family is erased from Riverville!" Sebastian warned coldly.With that, he left with Rosalie.Once Sebastian had left, Mateo grabbed his phone and yelled into the receiver, "Send help now! My hand is broken!"Soon, a car rushed over, and Mateo was carried into the car before it sped off.…Sebastian and Rosalie arrived at the hotel. By some stroke of misfortune, the employee at the hotel informed them that there was only one room available.Sebastian frowned."What do we do? There's only one room left! Why don't we share a room tonight?" Rosalie suggested shyly.Sebastian stared hard at Rosalie before he asked, "Did you plan this
Sebastian froze as he stared silently at Rosalie, who was now sprawled over him seductively. He could feel the heat rise in his body.This was probably every single man's dream, right?However, Sebastian quickly returned to his senses and shoved Rosalie aside."It's getting late, Ms. Griffin. Get some rest. I'm going to get some fresh air," he said as he got to his feet.He went out to the balcony and allowed the cool night breeze to cool down his burning body.Surprisingly, Rosalie didn't follow him out and simply lay on the bed, watching him.Sebastian stayed outside until it was late at night. Seeing Rosalie had fallen asleep, he finally let out a sigh of relief and went back into the room.Meanwhile, in the dark, multiple shadows snuck into the hotel. They made their way to Sebastian and Rosalie's floor and tiptoed to their door.Dressed in black disguises, these men blended in with the night. They also wore face masks, concealing most of their faces except for their eyes.
"Fuck! What the fuck are you two doing? Kill him!" The leader roared angrily at his men, and they sprung into motion.The two men swiped their daggers at Sebastian, but he simply laughed. He twisted the leader's arm, breaking it. At the same time, he jumped to his feet and kicked the two men, sending them flying. They crashed into a nearby wall and spat out blood, lying limp on the floor.The leader jolted in fright. With complete disregard for his broken arm, he flung his arm out, sending a cloud of white smoke into the air. It temporarily blinded Sebastian. Taking the opportunity, the leader dashed for the balcony to escape. He didn't expect Rosalie to be there as well.Rosalie froze, and her eyes widened as the man charged toward her with a dagger."Since' I'm going to die, I'm taking you with me!" he howled.Rosalie was rooted to the spot. She could only watch helplessly as the dagger got closer and closer to her chest.Just then, Sebastian had finally regained his vision
Mateo lay on the hospital bed at Riverville Hospital. He glared at his arm, which was now cast in plaster.The doctors had told him that the bones in his hand had been shattered.In other words, one of his hands was disabled."Goddamnit! Fuck!" Mateo howled.A while later, Penelope walked in. She took off her sunglasses and stared coldly at Mateo. "Where is the wild truffle?" she demanded.Mateo sighed before replying, "I didn't manage to get it. The Blacksmith, a martial arts Grandmaster, was killed by Sebastian as well.""He killed a Grandmaster?" Penelope asked in disbelief. "So you're saying that Sebastian shouldn't be underestimated?"Mateo frowned but nodded. "Yeah.""Alright, I understand. I'll handle the rest. Get well soon, Mr. Cortez. I'll send for a genius doctor to cure your injury soon," Penelope said. She put on her sunglasses and left.Mateo waited until she was well out of earshot before he howled in anger again.He couldn't stand it!It was the first time
