Day Thirty…

[ At Country J: Red Dragon Mafia's Headquarters… ]
After confirming that the Syphiruz Mafia called the Red Dragon Mafia for a negotiation, the Dragon Lord imdiately went to the headquarters to instruct his n on what they would do when facing the Syphiruz.
He could tell that Nathan would co personally to do the negotiation. He was surprised when he learned that Stephen Zhou was the one who was captured by his n and not the Supre Leader.
"Get ready everyone. The Supre Leader of the Syphiruz is soone we can't underestimate," Dragon Lord warned his subordinates. Though his counterattack against Nathan worked, the Dragon Lord was expecting Nathan to retaliate.
'His best friend was captured on his behalf, he would certainly save him. They failed to get Phantomflake back but I got the chance to free my comrades.' The Dragon Lord was referring to Jack and Spade.
"The location will be Orion Port," he responded. Orion Port was the oldest port of Country J. It already stopped its operation. The place was undergoing a renovation so the port was closed for four months.
"Master, are you going to watch the exchange of hostages, personally?" Agustav asked their leader.
"Yes. I want to ensure that Jack and Spade are safe." The Dragon Lord promptly responded. If Aiden and Stephen were important to Nathan, the Dragon Lord also had people he wanted to protect as he treated them like brothers. Spade and Jack.
Agustav's face darkened for a mont. But he was able to conceal his emotions right away. Agustav was jealous of the closeness between Spade, Jack, and the Dragon Lord. He favored them over him. Deep inside, he wished that Syphiruz Mafia would kill Jack.
He was just an assassin before, but now, Jack beca a branch leader of the Red Dragon Mafia. Agustav took him a long ti before he beca a branch leader. Because of this jealousy, Agustav had the urge to sabotage this negotiation.
'Should I kill Jack by myself and put the bla on the Syphiruz Mafia? The Dragon Lord will not suspect .' Agustav found a chance to eliminate his rival.
"Where did you set the location of this exchange?" the Dragon Lord asked, scanning his phone. He was checking the possible routes Nathan and his n would be taking once they arrived at Country J. He was already sent soone to monitor Nathan's movent. Several n were already waiting at the different airports in the country.
"I already heightened the surveillance that will monitor the Syphiruz n's arrival. We have to secure the periter. Our team should position themselves in different areas. We can't allow the Syphiruz to outsmart us." The Dragon Lord sounded very cautious when dealing with Nathan and his organization. He had to admit that Nathan was a powerful rival.
"I understand, Dragon Lord. I will now leave to take all necessary asures to avoid a mishap," Agustav mumbled aningfully. When he turned around, a sly smile flashed across his face. He was up to sothing.
The Dragon Lord continued his briefing to the other mbers. He was getting ready to face off Nathan. And just like what Nathan had expected, the Dragon Lord mobilized several n, sending them to the assigned location where the exchange would happen.
It did not take long before one mber of the Red Dragon Mafia called the Dragon Lord. "Our Lord, the Syphiruz Mafia has finally arrived. We saw their n scattered around the J-Pan International Airport," the man reported.
"Have you seen Spade and Jack? Did they bring them? We should ensure that the Syphiruz would not betray us and sabotage this negotiation." A chilly glint flashed through the Dragon Lord's eyes.
"Yes, our lord. We saw two blindfolded n getting on the black van. They were escorted by several n. They used the VIP passage of the airport, avoiding the public's eyes. Fortunately, one of our n waited outside, on the other exit, and happened to see them." The man continued reporting the situation to their Dragon Lord.
"A masked man also appeared. I believe he is the Supre Leader of the Syphiruz. I took a photo of him. I already sent the photos," he added.
"Okay. Keep your eyes on them. How many n have they brought?" The Dragon Lord wanted to know if their forces were enough to outnumber Nathan's group. Though he had no plan of ambushing them, he had to make sure that Nathan and his n would never go back to their words. He only wanted to free Jack and Spade from the grasp of the Syphiruz Mafia. Who knows Nathan had other tricks?
"At around thirty n. Rough estimate, our Lord."
"Alright. Make preparations. Continue to follow them. We are going to et them at Orion Port."
After confirming the current location of Nathan and others, the Dragon Lord hung up and left. He was now on the way to the Orion Port. When he checked the photo, Nathan was indeed wearing a black mask, so many guards escorting him.
But little did they know, Nathan and Axel were both wearing the sa clothes and masks. They were aware that Country J was the Red Dragon's turf so they already expected that the Dragon Lord's n scattered everywhere and were watching them.
Moving discreetly, Axel and Nathan already exchanged cars upon leaving the airport, deceiving the Red Dragon Mafia's watchers. Nathan drove his own car, proceeding in the opposite direction.
Unknown to Nathan, soone was following him behind. It was Kathleen. She heard the bad news from her cousin, Aiden. She was worried about Stephen. Aiden didn't tell her the full details. All she knew was that Stephen was in great danger and Nathan would try to save him.
It just so happened that Kathleen had another business trip in Country J. With her persistence and blackmail, she managed to get so information from Aiden, telling her where and when Nathan would be arriving at Country J. He even inford her about Nathan's car and plate number. Aiden was the one who arranged Nathan's car before his arrival. He had a few connections from the locals.
'Oh God, please keep Stephen safe. I don't want anything bad to happen to him,' Kathleen prayed silently as she focused on driving, her eyes following the movent of Nathan's car.
Kathleen shouldn't have followed Nathan. Because of this, she would discover Nathan's secret.
