Chapter 157
Rachel unaware of what was happening to the other mbers of the clubs, was still thinking about what Emily said during their practice .
They actually changed the script, and they added a female lead, but Emily and Katrina wouldn’t tell who the female lead was . They said they would announce it tomorrow . Why? Wasn’t the play suppose to be showing next Friday? Do they really have ti to do this?
While Rachel was still thinking over what was going through Emily’s head, she suddenly sense sothing ominous . Thanks to her family trip, Rachel’s awareness has improved greatly . Being constantly attacked by soone of Dan’s level had greatly improved the family’s detection skills .
At this very mont Rachel knew that there was soone aside from them in their house . Knowing this she proceeded to head towards the dojo . Rachel’s mother and brothers had a similar idea .
. . .
"Mom, how many are there?" Rachel asked, as the Regius family clustered together into a circle .
"Two, three, fifteen, I can’t sense all of them, they seem to be adept in hiding their presence . The only thing I’m sure of is this house is surrounded . The neighboring houses have also been occupied . "
Kumiko calmly told her children what their current situation was like . Joseph, Roland, and Gabby were already getting ready to fight .
"So what do we do? Do we call the police?" Rachel as usual was the only one who was thinking normally . When they heard what Rachel said Kumiko and the three brothers look at Rachel in a weird way .
"Sorry honey, I don’t think the police will be able to help us, even if we do call them . Actually they might only add to the body count . "
"Okay . . . Then what do we do?" Rachel was a getting a bit tense at the abnormal situation . Although she has already experienced a lot of abnormal situations, but this was the first ti, she actually felt real danger to her life .
Kumiko hearing her daughter’s question smiled a smile of excitent . Even though she wasn’t as obsessed as her husband, but in her core Kumiko also like the feeling of improvent in her martial art . She wanted to test her skills on others and prove that her husband’s martial art was the best . So now that this opportunity presented itself, she was getting excited, and so were her sons .
"What are you talking about Rachel? What do we do? Are you really asking that question? We bear the na Regius, practitioners of the ultimate martial art . The only thing we can do in this situation, is fight!"
Kumiko and her three sons fighting spirit was on the rise . Rachel on the other hand was shocked by her mom’s statent . She was once again reminded how crazy her family really is . Still because of what her mom said, she didn’t feel anxious at all anymore .
As the family’s moral was rising up, a strange kind of gas was being released into the dojo . When Kumiko saw the gas she acted quickly, she used RELEASE and punched towards the area towards the exit .
The sheer wind pressure of her punch was able to push back the gas . With that one punch the gas that was coming from the exit had dispersed . It was an unbelievable sight to behold, but Kumiko was able to do it .
"Everyone run outside now!" Kumiko shouted at her children, who responded by sprinting at full strength towards the exit .
Once they were outside, they were greeted by a bunch of people with weapons . Guns, swords, lances, knives, and other assortnt of weapons were seen . These were assassins, rcenaries, and even so random desperate people that were given information that might change their lives . All of them were aiming to kill Rachel .
If this was any other target, the other assassins and rcenaries would have attacked each other by now; but seeing as the target this ti, is the daughter of the blond devil they all decided to cooperate for now .
They all ca to an understanding not to bother each other . Killing Rachel will depend on ones luck and skill, fighting amongst themselves will only lessen their chances .
"What do you people want?" Kumiko stood in front of her children . No one gave a verbal answer to Kumiko’s question, but a response ca in the form of killing intent . The mont Kumiko and her children felt the dense killing intent they were now all in high alert .
Kumiko and her children without anymore hesitation were the first to attack . The assassins were caught by surprise but they didn’t back down and counterattacked .
. . .

Alex didn’t question how Sayaka got this information, he just believed in her as he hurried to Rachel’s house . While riding he contacted the surveillance team back in the mansion . Yet no matter how much he called them, he just couldn’t connect .
Alex had a bad feeling about what’s happening but he decided that the people in the mansion can handle themselves . At the mont Rachel was his top priority . How could he let this happen?! Why did he let his guard down?! Alex was getting angry at himself for the first ti in ages .
At this mont Alex was actually praying with all his might that Rachel was okay . He couldn’t think straight as he sped up even faster .
’Is it going to happen again?! Am I once again going to lose soone?! Even though I already have the strength, am I once again going to go through that?!’
Alex who was suppressing certain emotions and mories deep in his subconscious, was having a difficult ti at the mont . The emotions he buried deep inside to beco sothing more than human was trying to burst out of him .
At this very mont Alex’s ever stoic face has finally shown a different emotion . He was showing a look of fear and anxiety, sothing that hasn’t happen in a long ti .

Even at the mont near her death, Alex was the person who filled her mind .
’Heh, who knew that in the end I would be thinking of you . My only regret is never telling you how I truly feel, you idiot . ’ As Rachel was about ready to face her death, soone barged in the middle of her and the blade . Like a knight in shining armor, he once again appears in her most dire mont . Seeing that strong back of his protecting her, made all of Rachel’s anxiety go away .
