"What about now? Can you talk?" Jack's voice drifted to his ears.r

The remaining two subordinates on the other hand didn't know what to do. Their minds were in chaos. Apart from fear, they were not sure on what they were supposed to do.r

They had an impulse to run as far as they could. But in the end, their loyalty towards spider made them hesitate. Spider was the one that was taking care of them. He had saved them when they were in their worst situations.r

So, they were unwilling to leave him although they knew that they were no match for Jack considering that he could easily defeat spider, who was like a supreme being to them.r

Seeing that spider wasn't talking, Jack shifted his gaze to the remaining two men who were still standing there, not sure what to do.r

On seeing Jack's actions, spider panicked and asked, "Can you promise… me that you will…. Let them… live as long as…. I give you the information?"r

Jack looked at him and said, "Why would I leave something that will simply cone back and bite me? I can see their resentment towards me already. Do you think that by letting them live I can make them love me or forget about this incident? That's not going to happen."r

Before spider could say a word, Jack continued, "Don't think much of it. Besides, I don't think that you are in a position to bargain with me. The only thing that I can promise you is that you will all receive a quick and painless death."r

Spider's heart sank. He had actually brought these three with him because he had thought that the mission would be simple. In the end, he had brought them to their death.r

Although he thought that at the end of the day they would all end up dead, whether he gave the information or not, he thought that it would be good if the two of them could die a simple and painless death rather than a cruel one.r

Looking at Jack's cold eyes, added to the action where without hesitation he had killed one of the three, it meant that he would actually do what he had said.r

On the other hand, it wasn't that Jack was a cruel and cold-blooded person. Instead, it was just that, if there was something that would make him furious, it would be something that was related to harming his mother.r

An assassin having information on his mother was definitely not something good. He would definitely be willing to kill as long as there was need for him to do that. And even after killing the other guy, he didn't think much of it.r

That was a person who had the blood of several innocent people on his hands. So, there would be nothing wrong with eliminating him.r

"Alright. I'll tell.. you then. The one that.. sent me to kill Johnathan.. was your second uncle. He wants his… son to be the… family head in five years time. As for… how I got the… information on your mother, it was also… due to your second.. uncle." Spider began explaining. His words broke as he tried enduring the pain that he was feeling.r

"He knew about your… mother long time ago. And if I'm… not wrong, he might be… involved with her death." Spider continued.r

Jack's expression turned colder when he heard that his second uncle might be involved with his mother's death. He had just realized that there might be something fishy about her death. In the end, although it was not a hundred percent confirmed, at least his involvement was there.r

"Anything else?" Jack asked.r

Knowing that it was coming to an end, spider shook his head and said, "Nothing much.. Just keep your promise."r

Seeing that there was nothing else to say, Jack immediately made a move. Before the two could react, their necks were broken and they fell onto the ground lifelessly.r

After that, Jack killed spider by breaking his neck using his incredible strength.r

With this done, he turned his attention to what he was supposed to do next. He searched and took the phones of all the three of them. Then there came a problem, how was he going to deal with the corpses?r

He had never done this before. He thought for a while before he decided that it would be good if the private team could deal with it. It was just that the team wasn't completely loyal to him and so, he didn't want to get them involved with this.r

After racking his brain for a while, he found the best solution. Taking out his phone, he made a call.r

"Yes? You called me so early, not even three hours have gone by. Want my help with something?" Johnathan asked.r

"It should be the other way round actually. I want you to help yourself after I have repaid the debt." Jack said.r

"What do you mean by that?" Johnathan was confused.r

"Well, there's someone calling himself, not really, he used to call himself spider. He was here to assassinate you. But unfortunately, he mistook me for you and attacked me instead." Jack explained what had happened.r

Johnathan was completely surprised that Jack was actually attacked. What's more, he wondered how the heck this person known as spider found his information.r

But when he thought that he had called for his subordinates to clear the scene where he fought with viper. Maybe there was someone who had gotten the information that they had come to Volant city.r

But, what he couldn't understand was how that assassin arrived here in just a few hours. One had to know that the distance between Kartu city and Volant city wasn't something that could be covered in three hours just because one used a plane.r

In any case, he caught something in Jack's words. "Are you sure that the person that came this time was spider?" He couldn't help but ask.r

"Yeah, he has a spider tattoo on his arm. He claimed to be the one and I can say that he had some combat ability." Jack explained.r

"That should be him. He is the seventh ranked top assassin in the country. He is powerful. And if he had gotten me in my current condition, I'm sure that I would be dead. But why are you using past tense when referring to him?" Johnathan's voice was solemn as he spoke of spider.r

"He's dead. He couldn't even stand after I made a single move. I wonder just how weak he was." Jack said.r

"Are you serious that he's dead? If he's not, try to make sure that you avoid him. You can wait till my subordinates come to deal with him." Johnathan stated.r

"Come on. I already said that this guy is dead. I was calling you so that you can send someone to come and clear the scene here. I have never dealt with something like this before. So, I don't have the resources to deal with it." Jack explained.r

Johnathan couldn't believe it when he heard that it was true that spider was dead. But hearing Jack's serious voice, he had no choice but to believe it.r

"Give me the location and I'll send them there in around twenty minutes." Johnathan said. His subordinates had always been in the western province all this while. It was just that he had never interacted with them all this time, until today.r

And now, they should be somewhere near Volant city. So, he was sure that they would be where Jack was within twenty minutes.r

Jack sent him the pinned location before he took his leave. The scene would be easy to clean as there was no blood. The only issue would be disposing the bodies.r

After leaving, he decided to go back to the room that he had booked. He had no intention of getting closer to the girls for the day because he still didn't know who it was that had the intention of killing him.r

If the other party saw him with the girls, they might be used as hostages and they might as well end up getting hurt for something that didn't actually concern them.r

That night around nine, Denali finally arrived. She didn't waste time and immediately began investigating viper. He was Jack's main concern because he was his main target. He wanted to know who was the one that had sent him.r

With Denali's skills, she easily cracked the password of the phone and accessed it. After that, she began going through the contact history. She found that all the calls history had been deleted.r

But no matter what, although they were not on the phone, but the data was still recorded somewhere. So, she easily hacked and found the call logs of the calls made during this month.r

After a long while, a list of names appeared on the screen of her laptop. Jack looked at the screen of the laptop, trying to see if there was someone that he knew and had actually contacted the mercenary.r

He was sure that the other party had to be someone that he had interacted with. Even if he failed to know the other party's details, he would at least know the name.r

He began with the calls that had been made starting with the oldest. He continued dropping till he found one name that he knew all to well. It was Marion. Jack knew her because she was one of Dalton's wives. And, she was Brenda's mother.r

The moment that he found that she had actually made a call, Jack's eyes narrowed. He asked Denali to play the audio of the conversation between the two of them.r

From the conversation, Jack found that she was the one who had asked viper to meet up with Brenda in Volant city as she had something for him.r

Knowing that Brenda was also involved, Jack didn't waste time scrolling. He simply searched for Brenda's name and he found that there was actually a conversation between the two on this very day.r

What's more, from the first conversation, it was about the room that they would meet to discuss the business. As for the second one, it was Brenda informing viper that the target was actually present here in the resort.r

With all these clues, how could Jack not know who it was that wanted him dead? Brenda wanted him dead. But, what had he done to make her want to kill him? That was a question that only she could answer.r
