Chapter 21: AM NOT QUALIFIED?
In a bustling and lively major road that is located at the southern part of the inner region of the Cornerstone city, lights coming out of street lambs, cars moving on the road and building beside these roads made the street have a beautiful and calm look.
Not only that, but there is a rather large museum which is obviously the center of attraction in this beautiful street. The name of this museum is called the Cornerstone museum and it is very famous in both the city and the neighbouring cities.
Right beside this museum, an unfinished building could be seen. Although no light is directed to the building which made it to look gloomy, the 3 storey building is till almost finished since what it needs a finishing touch which is painting.
In this uncompleted building, a group of men could be seen surrounding an aged man and two middle aged men who were tied and made to sit on the floor. Although the group of men were staring at them with various killing intent, they were surprisenly calm.
"The son of a b*tch actually ended the call on me" Among these group of men, a one eye patched man said in a gloomy voice as he stared at the phone he is holding in disbelief.
"What’s the situation boss? Did he accept your offer?" a short middle aged man suddenly spoke up as he approached the one eye patched man.
"Well it seems someone is willing to be my punching bag tonight" The one eye patched man replied as he suddenly have a strange cold grin on his face. When the others saw this grin, the immediately shuddered.
"I suggest you guys to flee from this area while you still can" The aged man who apparently is the Mayor suddenly spoke up in a calm tone.
"What will happen if we don’t flee?" The one eye patched man quickly asked back as he began to approach the Mayor. But before he could approach the aged man, a youth who is getting more matured by his looks suddenly rushed into the large room and exclaimed.
"Boss! We have a situation at the first floor!"
"What do you mean!?" The one eye patched man quickly asked with a confused expression on his face. But before the youth could explain further, the Mayor suddenly spoke up now in a chilly tone.
"If you bastards don’t flee, then you will meet your maker this night"
...
At the first floor of the building the Mayor and his two sons are in, bodies could been lying lifelessly all around the place as a simple looking youth in a rather untidy black suit could be seen standing right in the middle of the floor.
"Well I must say. Fighting with only my legs isn’t easy at all" Hutton muttered with a wry smile on his face. Although he has used his legs to take out all the people on the floor, he feels like he has already expended one third of his energy doing so.
’Luckily, my right hands seems to have gotten better’ Hutton thought while slightly flexing his right hand.
"Who are you?" A deep voice suddenly came out from the entrance right in front of Hutton as a group of people came out of it. Among these people coming out, the one eye patched man who is in front of the group and the Mayor and his two sons who were dragged by someone could be seen.
But as soon as Hutton saw the state the Mayor and the two sons were in, his expression suddenly became incomparably grim.
Right now their clothes were a mess with various kinds of dirt were on it. There hair were disheveled and messy while there face were slightly swollen which indicated that they have been beaten badly.
Hutton anger even heightened further when he saw the miserable look of the actual mayor of the city he is currently in.
"Who is the one that earlier called the daughter of the Mayor?" While totally ignoring the question that was fired at him previously, Hutton asked his own in an oddly calm tone.
When the one eye patched man heard this question, realisation dawned on him as he said.
"Oh! You are the mother–"
Bang!!
But before he could finish, he was suddenly sent flying and heavily collided against the wall at Hutton’s left. The rest of the people in the group had blank look on their faces when their leader was sent flying.
"I will only say this once, let the Mayor and his sons go" Hutton said with a grim look on his face.
"You are not qualified to ask that" a voice suddenly rang out from another side of the room. When Hutton looked towards the direction the voice came from, he saw a man that have a look of a scholar slowly coming into view.
This man was the same person who ordered the Master Ninjas to chase after Vivian and Hutton back at the hotel’s grand opening.
As soon as Hutton saw this person, he immediately felt a silent yet deadly intent at four locations in the room.
"Am not qualified?" Hutton asked with narrowed eyes, but the scholar didn’t seem to answer the question as he said rather lazily.
"Go and get him"
"Yes boss"
Xiu! Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!
As soon as the scholar uttered those words, four black colored silhouettes suddenly dashed at Hutton from four different directions in the room.
’Sh*t’ Hutton cursed as he immediately dashed towards the group. As soon as the group saw Hutton dashing towards them, they immediately steeled their hearts to prepare for the worse as they quietly stood in their spots.
When the scholar saw this, he immediately had a wicked grin on his face as he spoke "You can not escape the jaws of death this time! Your fate is sealed!!"
When the Mayor saw this, he immediately panicked as he exclaimed with a furious tone.
"I have already told you that I will never be a surbodinate of the James family! You are going too far with this Sylvester!".
’The James family!?’ Hutton thought as his heart began to beat wildly while he immediately paused in his tracks. As for the scholar who apparently is names Sylvester, his expression quickly became grim as he spoke.
"Too far!? We tried every possible means to win you over by offering you immense benefits, strengthening your puny Mayor’s office and we even expanded your business to other countries but you seem to be headstrong on not being our surbodinate. So we decided to handle you in the hard way"
"You think this will make me submit? Keep on dreaming!" The Mayor exclaimed with an indignant look on his face. But Sylvester now had a vicious look on his face as he said.
"Since you refused to be willing, I will just have to force you to be willing! Bring his first son over here"
"Y-Yes sir!" the person holding onto Turner timidly answered as he began to drag Turner towards Sylvester. When the Mayor saw this, he suddenly had a really bad feeling welling up in him as he asked.
"W-What are you planning on doing with my son!?"
"Well since you are not willing, I will have make you loose some–"
Bang!! Bang!! Bang!! Bang!!
Right before Sylvester could finish what he was about to say, four loud bangs were suddenly heard at his left. Not only that, but he felt four silhouettes fly past him in an incredible speed before landing heavily on the ground. Before Sylvester could come back to his senses, Hutton quickly appeared right in front of him held his neck which he used to lift him up.
"Am I qualified now?" Hutton said with a calm look now on his face. But when Sylvester saw this look, his whole being suddenly went cold.
"Let... Me go... And I... Will... Let them... Leave" Sylvester spoke in a struggling tone.
"You will let them leave If I let you go?" Hutton asked with a surprised look on his face, but before Sylvester could answer, Hutton suddenly chuckled in an eerily tone before speaking again.
"What makes you think you still have the right to speak terms with me? Besides, there is something I need to let you know"
"What.... Is that.. it?" Sylvester still with the struggling voice as he bad feeling began to sprout out within him.
"I don’t let any member of the James family that is in my hands live for even a minute longer" Hutton said with a light smile now on his face. Before Sylvester could speak again, Hutton quickly used his left hand which have a fraction of his internal force to smash Sylvester’s face on the ground.
Bang!!!!
The impact of the smash quickly opened the skull of now the lifeless Sylvester on the ground.
’One down, more to go’ Hutton thought with a calm look on his face as he stared at the group who were now terrified to their bones while having cold sweats.
What do you think?
