"Who dares to kill a member of the Panthers organization?" Antonio jumped to his feet as he shouted in rage.

 

It had already been more than a week since he had sent off Yona to go and bring Nathan to the stronghold. Although it was true that Nathan was a weakling, he had secrets for that were very important to him.

 

The death of Yona wasn't something that enraged him. But, their deaths meant that the mission that was supposed to have been completed by now was a failure.

 

The longer the period that the mission took to be completed, the higher the risks of others finding about what he was doing.

 

Even if it was not the other organizations, there were some of the people present in the same organization that were aiming for the position that he was in.

 

As long as they managed to complete the mission that he was aiming for in front of him, they surely were going to replace him in the position of the vice supreme leader.

 

What this meant was that, the mission, the secrets that were supposed to be gotten from Nathan was something so meritorious to the organization.

 

And when it came to strength that he currently possessed, that wasn't something that couldn't be achieved by others. Although the current five were some of the strongest members of the organization, there were some that was stronger than them.

 

There were currently three people that were just as strong as he was. And amongst these three, two of them were already eyeing his position. As for the last one, that was his friend, and was the one that was supporting him.

 

"We haven't gotten the information about who exactly killed him and those that he had selected to go with him for the mission. But I am trying as much as I can so that I can get the information." The lady stated.

 

She too was getting frustrated by the fact that the mission that was supposed to be a breeze had suddenly become hard.

 

She wasn't sure about what was going on. At some point, he had noticed that Yona wasn't at the location that Nathan was in. That was the reason as to why he had contacted him to inform him to head there as all those people that he had sent over were dead.

 

But, not long after he went over, she had noticed that they both of them were in the same location. But a while later, all indicators of their locations disappeared. It first begin with Nathan, before it finally followed with Yona.

 

For Nathan, she wasn't sure if he was dead or not. But for Yona, she was sure that he was dead because there were several indicators that were used to track the life force of all the members of the organization.

 

Since the indicator showed that Yona was dead, then that indicated that the mission was a failure.

 

According to her estimation, she was sure that this was somehow related to the stronghold. It was either stronghold 11 or another stronghold that had somehow come across Yona and his group.

 

Not even for a single second hand she thought that there was a person who was far stronger than Yona outside the strongholds.

 

"Things are not looking good." Antonio stated as he tried to calm his rage. He didn't want to act on impulse as this was going to reduce the chances of his success.

 

"What are you guys suggesting?" After feeling that he had calmed down for a moment, Antonio looked at the six people in the room as he asked.

 

"Vice Supreme leader, I still have the same opinion. If possible, I would like to personally take on this mission. As long as I make a move, I am sure that there's nobody that is going to stop me that easily from completing the mission." The guy who had spoken first, who had thick beard, spoke again.

 

"Even if it is true that our moves would alarm the others, by the time that they react, I will have already completed the mission." The man continued.

 

The others thought about it for a moment and saw that what he had said was actually true. If the man was going to act, then it was a guaranteed fact that, as long as he got into contact with Nathan, he would be able to complete the mission.

 

Since that was the intention, then there was no need for them to hold back anymore. As for the people who are responsible for killing off the ones that he had sent over before, Antonio wasn't going to spare them.

 

"Okay then. I will let you do this. But please, make sure that you do this fast. I don't want to alarm the others before we complete the mission. Even if we can alarm those that are in our organization, that should be the limit." Antonio stated as he got back to his seat.

 

The man with the thick beard nodded his head as he replied, "Don't worry about this vice supreme leader. I promise to complete this mission as soon as possible."

 

"I hope so. It has already been over a week since we began the mission. And I am sure that there are several people who are already getting suspicious about our moves. With you moving out of the stronghold, their curiosity on the matter should rise to the peak."

 

"I should be able to hold them back for a good while to give you enough time to complete the mission." Antonio stated.

 

"Thank you for your trust vice supreme leader." The man with thick beard gave Antonio a deep bow before he strode towards the entrance of the room.

 

But the moment that he arrived at the door, Antonio's voice stopped him.

 

"If you manage to find out who was the one responsible with the murder of Yona and the others, take care of them as long as it doesn't hinder the progress of the mission." Antonio stated coldly.

 

It was obvious that he wasn't happy that Yona was killed off. As for the elites that had gone with Yona, he cared nonetheless about them. It was just that they were together with Yona that he even talked about them.

 

The favor that Yona had done for Antonio was something that Antonio would not forget about. That was the reason as to why he wasn't going to let his death go easily.

 

"I promise vice supreme leader, I will find him and kill him. The man would take beard swore with determination." Immediately after that, the man walked out of the room.

 

The six people in the room remained silent for a while. Then, noticing that there was a certain change in the atmosphere in the room, the four people that were colleagues with the man with thick beard gave excuses and left one after the other.

 

After a short period of time, only Antonio and the lady were left in the room. Antonio did not react and remained seated on his throne like chair, thinking about what he was supposed to do next to ensure that his position wasn't compromised.

 

All this while, he had never thought about taking over the position of the supreme leader of the Panthers organization. That was something that could be considered impossible unless the supreme leader of the organization passed away.

 

But, that was something that was hard to come by considering that, the supreme leader of the organization was someone who was far stronger than Antonio.

 

And currently, Antonio himself was full of admiration for the supreme leader. And as a result, although the supreme leader didn't favor him even if he admired the leader, Antonio never showed resentment.

 

Just as Antonio was lost in his thoughts, the lady approached him.

 

"Vice supreme leader, should I help you relax?" The lady questioned.

 

Antonio raised his eyes as he looked at the lady. In the end, he shook his head as his sighed. "Patricia, I already told you that I'm not interested in you. You should stop thinking about me and look for someone else who can stay with you."

 

Although Patricia was rejected, she didn't show any disappointment on her face. She was acting more calm than a person who was rejected by the person they loved the most.

 

"It doesn't matter if you don't like me now. But that doesn't mean that you won't like me in the future. And that is what I'm waiting for. I will wait for you until you love me, even if I have to wait for decades." Patricia stated with determination clear in her eyes.

 

Although it was true that she wasn't showing it on her face that she was hurt, that didn't mean that she wasn't. It was just that, she had learned how to hide her emotions in front of others.

 

Antonio looked into Patricia's eyes and stared at her for a few seconds. In the end, he shook his head and said nothing. He knew that no matter what he said or did, there was no way that he was going to change Patricia's mind.

 

He had tried it several times but he had failed to do that. In the end, he could only decide to let her do as she pleased. At the end of the day, he wasn't going to lose anything.

 

He only reminded her about this simply because she was an important part of his team and strength in the organization. He wouldn't want to see her defecting to another side due to something like that.

 

Patricia gave Antonio one last glance before she finally left the room. She still had to take care of other things as she was an important person in the organization.

 

Although she loved Antonio, that didn't mean that she was going to forget about her duties in the organization.
