And within a minute, the bodyguards were all floored and unconscious.Naturally, the equipment around the ICU ward was all broken.Smack!Mona laughed coolly in turn, walking up to Claude and slapped him across the face without a word. "You were going to make Winter kneel naked, right?"Claude was left staggered from the slap.He was at first panicking from Mona's show of strength, but the slap sent his rage and humiliation into overdrive.Clenching his fists, he bellowed furiously, "You! How dare you hit me! Don't you know who I am?!""Does that matter to me?"Mona laughed nonchalantly and slapped him resoundingly again. "Do you know who owns this place, messing around here?!""Shit!"Claude felt his cheeks burning from the second slap, feeling not just pain but also humiliation.As he leapt toward Mona maniacally, her single kick left him dropping to his knees, clutching his groin.Various vibrant colors alternated over his face, as he was totally emasculated.He was tre
By the time Jet and Liev rushed into the ICU ward, they were left stunned by the sight before them.The room was a mess, with several Dresden family bodyguards strewn around on top of broken medical equipment.Claude was himself on his knees, sobbing as he clutched his bleeding groin."W-What's going on here?!"While Liev was stunned to see his son's condition, Jet wheeled on Mona who stood nearby, striding up to her and bellowing, "Who are you?! Who let you in here?!"Mona pursed her lips. "Am I obliged to answer your question?!""You little…!" Jet growled, but he quickly repressed his rage to help Claude in his feet, only to be left shocked by what he saw.After all Claude's groin was a mess of mush and blood, clearly castrated—it was clear that the brat standing nearby must be the cause."W-What happened to my son?!" Liev demanded anxiously, still sane and trying to find out what happened."I castrated him," Mona admitted, shrugging since she would not stoop to lying."Wha
"Name your price!" Liev barked, having gone through plenty in his years building a legacy in Zamri.When he realized that brute strength would not work, he must negotiate a way out.Whatever happened, he must not lose his son or his lineage ended here."Nope."But contrary to Liev's expectations, Mona had no intentions to negotiate and shook her head. "Someone told me to watch Claude and keep him here until she gets back.""So this is not up for negotiation?" Liev growled, incensed."That's right," Mona replied nonchalantly and got herself a chair to sit on.Live turned toward Jet in turn and asked, "How long does Claude have?""How long…?"Jet did a double take and quickly ran over to check Claude.It took quite a while until Claude looked up blankly at Liev, and said, "He's safe… He's not going to die.""What?!" Liev exclaimed in disbelief."It's true." Jet sighed exasperatedly. "I've checked—he had his balls kicked off, but the brat did so with precision, avoiding any ma
While the Dresdens would be helpless against Mona any other day, she was not in luck today—Percy just happened to have a cousin visiting and brought along several martial arts friends!"Alright, we'll be waiting!" Liev quickly said. "Tell your cousin that he will be rewarded handsomely once he gets this done!"Hanging up, he turned toward Mona and sneered viciously. "I'd be thinking about how to escape if I were you, brat.""Heh." Mona snorted and said nothing else.Her cool reaction left Liev uncertain, and he wondered if Mona was well-connected.However, he had no choice but to wait, since his son was in dire condition while he still had no idea who the brat was.Soon, there was a rush of footsteps down the hallway, and a blond kicked open the door, striding in with a metal bat in hand.Naturally, the blond was Percy, and his mannerisms were your run-of-the-mill street thug's.Beside him were four burly men, wearing sleeveless shirts and having bulging muscles, clearly not yo
However, even if those burly men were considered martial artists, they barely reached Birthright rank.Against Mona, who was almost reaching Transcendent rank, they simply stood no chance.With a soft cry, Mona vaulted from the windowsill as she leapt into the air like a bird.She threw a seemingly light jab, but it caught one of the burly men off guard and sent him flying.It was certainly a visual bombshell that left Liev and Jet's jaws dropping.Mona had to weigh less than a hundred pounds, but she could send a man who stood head and shoulders above her flying, slamming into a wall.There was no telling if the man was dead or alive, but Percy's cousin attacked Mona anyway."Hillbreaker!" he bellowed, his voice so thunderous it could shatter mountains.Still, Mona merely held out a finger and sent him stumbling backward, screaming as he touched his knuckle. "Y-You're Transcendent rank?!"While the layman had no idea what Percy's cousin was saying, Mona certainly did.Martia
That was when Claude regained consciousness.He jolted into his senses as he saw Winter as soon as he opened his eyes and pointed at Winter as he screamed wildly at the top of his lungs, "Dad, Jet, it's her! She told the other woman to hurt me! You have to help me!"Liev was only left even more stunned.He already realized from Jet's exchange with Winter that Winter was the chief of Zamri Hospital. He had come with a request, only for his son to end up insulting the person in question.Not only was she young, but she was a woman too!"What are you spacing out for?! Help me!" Claude was still hollering on top of his lungs.Liev finally had enough and frowned as he told his son who Winter really was."What?!"Claude was left thunderstruck—as a member of the Dresden family, he certainly knew who owned the hospital.It was Gene Pearce, the richest man of the East Coast!And what could the relationship be between Gene and Winter for her to become the chief? Anyone could tell rig
Gene Pearce's savior, a healer who sold a pill worth billions, and the man whom magister Tet Boran fawned over… Everything about Frank made him above Lieve's pay grade!And on top of that, he was a martial artist even stronger than Jaden Favoni.After all, Jaden himself had announced to everyone that he lost that duel against the mysterious martial artist and regrettably had to demote himself to third in Skyrank.In other words, that mysterious martial artist was now second in Skyrank!And even if the others did not know who that mysterious martial artist was, would Liev really not?It was Frank!Lieve was utterly dumbstruck at the thought—what monster did his son just mess with?! Did he intend to have his own family buried with him?!"Thank you, dear brother," Winter said as she took the sheet from Frank.When she said 'dear brother', Claude went limp as he realized it was all over for him.Liev was left watching as his own son blacked out in sheer terror, but he could not cr
"No can do," Winter said, scowling even before Frank could answer. "I still have plenty of matters to take up with these people!""Wake him up," Frank said, pointing at Claude and clearly intending for his father Liev to do it."Claude? Claude?" Liev quickly shook Claude.However, Claude was not waking up, and Liev felt as if a blade was hanging over his head, seeing the darkening gaze in Frank's eyes.Clenching his jaw, he raised his wrist and slapped his son across the face!Smack!The slap finally woke Claude, and he immediately realized what had happened. He clutched his face and stared at his father in disbelief."Dad… You slapped me?!"In his memory, his dad had constantly spoiled him and never so much as laid a finger on him.It naturally left him flabbergasted to see his father slap him as so many others watched now!"I…" Liev could certainly see how miserable his son was, but his rage flared again as he remembered that Claude was the reason he got caught in this ho
