The Villain's Story Chapter [211] A Reason...To Protect.

Chapter [211] A Reason...To Protect.

"Hey Max, why did you say that boss and I are equal?"

Kazikato asked Maxwell as he shut the TV off.

"Remember what I said?"

"That law of power or something?"

"Yeah, that."

"I don't get it...wasn't it about saying nothing?"

Maxwell stopped typing and said to Kazikato while wiping his gla.s.ses.

"We can't let them know too much...and it probably isn't far off anyway."

Kazikato, listening to Maxwell shook his head.

"You're wrong."

He said whilst lying down on the Sofa and closing his eyes.

"Boss can beat me even if I catch him off guard...easily."

Kazikato said...and Max stared at him silently.

If this was a few months ago, then both Alan and Kazikato could be said to be equal.

But that was not the case now, although Kazikato may have said that Alan would beat him easily now...he was not far off.

Even if they transformed. Alan had an 80% chance of winning against Kazikato no matter what.

There were many reasons for this, one was that Alan's training was not fruitless, and second was that during their spars against each other, they had gotten to understand each other. Alan understood Kazikato much better. And third...Kazikato had never fought a fully enraged Alan Peccator.

The previous serious bout they had on the Island was an Enrgaed Kazikato against Alan, and although Alan had been seriously injured...he learned from it.

If Kazikato and Alan were to fight now...Alan would 8 times out of 10.

That was a fact.

"Hmmm..."

Maxwell stared at Kazikato who was asleep on the couch as he was engrossed in thought.

He disregarded his thoughts and went back to work.

He was currently writing a report back to the main Twilight Headquarters in Ashton City...and also a request for more men...

He had arrogantly said that because of the presence of Alan and Kazikato and his own Expertise...they would not need any men.

He was severely wrong...

Whilst he and Alice were handling the internal affairs well...the problem was there combatants...

Alan was most of the time nowhere to be seen...and Kazikato...was lazy as all heck.

Maxwell... had to admit that he was lacking...He thought everything would be all fine and dandy with just those two and him...but he was severely underestimating territory management and other issues.

It was a field he had no knowledge nor experience about, So it was only natural that he was lacking...but it was a big hit to his pride.

Alan and Kazikato were the only Awakened beside him here...and it wasn't enough to manage an entire territory.

The Rhino guild had a large territory...and it was hard to manage with fewer awakeners...especially when the rhino guild's main building was still here.

He was thinking of kicking everyone out of there and remodeling it instead of this building...but he didn't have enough manpower.

He needed men to deal with the territory, the protection fees allocation and collection, and also to deal with some 'rats.'

And this would all be so easy IF ALAN WAS f.u.c.kING HERE AND HE WOULDNT HAVE HAD TO WRITE BACK!

He was cursing his team leader every now and then... and was about to press the enter key to send the report aka request.

He hesitated...but then finally...he came to terms with being laughed at by the elders and Richard and did it...

All whilst crying...

*Enter!*

*****

"What do you want?"

Richard Thompson, Guildmaster of Twilight, The third-ranked guild in the world, asked while sitting on his office chair, with eyes that definitely were not welcoming to the sudden intruder aka guest.

"Oh come on, Up for a Game of chess?"

Daniel Parker, Guildmaster of t.i.tan, The Top guild in the world, answered whilst displaying a smile.

"I don't have the time for your shenanigans, what do you want?"

Richard said, keeping a sharp eye on Daniel.

"Nothing really, I just wanted to come to visit you. And also for a trade."

Daniel answered as he took a look at Richard's office.

"Too dark and edgy, you sure you like this style?"

Richard annoyed said.

"Your office literally is all gold, and you tell me I have no taste?"

"Oh come on, you know you like it, the purity of the gold, the subtle texture of it...the absolutely magnificent sight to wake up to."

"I beg to differ, The dark shade coupled with the subtle yet strong thickness of the Purple amethyst in my office is much better."

"Gold is better, more fluid, more magnificent, more texture filled than amethyst."

"It is not, Amethyst is beautiful in every way, much better than gold. And it's a gem-like texture that just draws your intention because of beauty is much better than gold which draws in only greed. Gold draws in only the eyes that appreciate greed, not beauty and art."

Daniel looked at Richard with a disbelieving gaze...but inside he decided not to continue this topic further.

He knew Richard still had a deep fondness for his deceased wife and daughter, and the Amethyst in his office reminded him of her.

And he knew better than to belittle a man's dead wife.

"Anyways, I hear you're taking care of my son quite well. How is he?"

"He's doing well, He is quite well versed in business. I can't believe you didn't see his talent."

Richard said, choosing his words carefully in order to spite Daniel.

"He was? He didn't show any interest when he was in my care."

"He would have if he received any love."

"..."

It was clear, Richard was winning.

"Well, he needed to have some 'talent' to receive it."

"Oh? You are saying your child needs to have Talent for you to love him?"

"Of course, you wouldn't know, would You Richard?"

Richard grits his teeth as the smile on his face receded by a centimeter. Daniel's verbal attack at his daughter's lack of Talent.

Alice truly had lacking talent unfit for an heir of a high-ranking guild, but thankfully her father was Richard and not someone else, Richard loved her despite her lack of talent. And now, he knew her mood was getting better after being in Predator...so he didn't have any problems with it.

But still, that hit a d.a.m.n nerve.

"To be honest, even I'm surprised, Twilight has a keen eye, huh? Alan Peccator, the first spatial awakened, and also the youngest C rank in history as well as an unparalleled spear genius that gave even that d.a.m.n Copycat a tough time. My son, who is apparently a business genius singlehandedly improved your shares significantly. And this Kazikato s.h.i.+mos.h.i.+no guy apparently is as strong as Alan Peccator and also a one in ten million triple element user. You hit the jackpot, not once, not twice, but Thrice!"

Daniel laughed and continued.

"And you also got the support of those stubborn Wellingtons, do you know for how many years I had been trying to get them to my side? They never listened to me at all, although I guess the spatial equipment market was too lucrative for them to disregard."

"What are you getting at?"

Richard asked, stimulating his mana as he felt an ominous feeling.

Daniel smiled, also stimulating his mana. And in a second the room was covered in the lights of Purple and Gold.

Daniel created a chess board half of gold and created his golden pieces on his side.

"Let's discuss over a game of chess, Shall We?"

And to this Richard, sighed and created his own side of the board made with Amethyst crystals.

And the chess match between the two giants began.
