"Hehe, not at all." Jack smiled coldly before he began rolling the sleeves of his shirt. He then continued speaking while his gaze was focusing on the sleeves, "You know, although your target isn't this ti, it's still Johnathan. And all the sa, Johnathan is my cousin. So, do you think that I will simply let you go after knowing that you have intentions of killing him?"r
The guy frowned. But before he could speak, a subordinate of his took a step forward and lashed at Jack, "You ungrateful bastard. Do you know who he is? He is the spider, one of the top ten assassins in the country. He has given you a living grace but you don't appreciate it? Do you…"r
Before the guy could finish what he was saying, Jack interrupted and said as he looked at the guy called spider, "It will be good if you can keep your dog in check. Otherwise, you can't bla others when it ends up dead."r
Jack's casual attitude made spider vigilant of him. But although he was vigilant, it wasn't that much to the extend that he would actually be in a combat ready mode. Instead, he simply began paying attention to Jack's movents.r
Although he knew of Jack's existence, he didn't know him well. He had stopped investigating about him when Johnathan disappeared, about a half a year ago.r
And from all the investigations, he found that Jack was just a harassed teenager. As for where he got his confidence from at this mont, he wasn't sure. All the sa, he was sure that he could deal with a youth like him easily.r
"Well, you don't have to mind about that. After all, you might be underestimating my dogs." Spider said with a smile.r
"Is that so? But I would like to deal with the master of the dog directly rather than going through the mob." Jack stated. Then, he continued without giving spider a chance to speak.r
"It's true that I don't know you at all. But there are facts that make to have you to stay here as you still have a few questions to answer. Furthermore, just the thought of killing my cousin because you were paid doesn't really make happy."r
"I would like to let you live. But it seems that it's not possible for that to happen as you are just like a moth. Anyway, I'll just have to claim more bonus when I go back for the extra work that I have to do." Spider said before he motioned one of his subordinates to make a move.r
"Not a problem at all. I would really like to make you stay here forever. But, I still have so use for you." As Jack finished speaking, one of spider's subordinates was already charging towards him before throwing a punch.r
The speed of this guy could be said to be higher than that of a normal adult. But in front of Jack, this was nothing at all. He simply stood there, not making a move.r
His gaze was still fixed on spider. Although he could tell that this guy was strong, he was sure that it wasn't by much. Otherwise, if this person was actually stronger than him, Jack was sure that the system would have offered him a mission and given him a reward in advance.r
Well, that was unless the system couldn't give two tasks at the sa ti. That would really be regrettable.r
The man that was attacking Jack, upon seeing that Jack had yet to react although his punch was already approaching his face, he thought that Jack was already scared out of his wits in that he had frozen.r
As such, he smiled as he thought of smashing the irritable handso face in front of him.r
Just as the punch was approaching Jack's face, Jack finally reacted. At a fast speed, he threw a slap towards the guy.r
PAH! Pah! Pah!r
A slap resounded in the forest and it echoed a few tis. As for the guy that had been slapped on his right cheek, he was forced to do a 270° sideways flip before his head hit the ground.r
The mont that Jack's hand connected and transferred the force in it, the guy lost a few teeth and fainted before even touching the ground.r
The two n behind spider who were looking forward to seeing Jack being pumled were dumbfounded when they saw their companion simply flipping in the air after the sound of a crisp slap.r
Their mouths hang open as they stared at Jack in disbelief. Then, they looked at the guy who was already on the ground, he was already out cold. They imdiately swallowed hard, especially the guy that was previously lashing at Jack.r
They didn't even see how it really happened. They had been seeing the punch that was about to hit Jack's face. But in the next second, their companion was down after they heard the sound of slapping.r
Spider on the other hand had managed to see Jack's hand blurring. But, he himself hadn't seen how it happened well because he too couldn't follow the speed at which Jack's hand moved.r
Knowing that it would be impossible for his other subordinates to deal with Jack, he decided to make the move by himself. Although he was surprised that Jack was this strong, he didn't think that Jack was stronger than him.r
Seeing that spider was finally willing to make a move by himself, Jack smiled and said, "Show what you have. I hope that you can make go all out. I still want to know what my limit is, this ti."r
As he said that, he readied himself for combat. But in the end, when he saw spider's speed and movents, he couldn't help but complain in his heart, 'Co on. How cos this guy is an amateur? With all the bragging, I thought that he might really exchange moves with and make experience a real fight. What a disappointnt.'r
With Jack's professional combatant ability, it was not just a matter of him having the strength of five n combined, instead, it was the strength plus the fighting experience of a professional combatant.r
So, he could easily tell that spider was a novice when it ca to fighting. Although he might have so strength, he was still too weak to face Jack.r
If Jack was five n combined, then spider was actually a combination of two and a half n. As for his fighting skills, although as an assassin, spider might have experienced several life and death situations, his skills were still subpar in Jack's eyes.r
Seeing that Jack was no longer taking him serious, although he was always good at keeping his emotions in check, spider couldn't help but get angry at Jack.r
In that exact mont, he had decided that he would make sure that Jack died a cruel death for daring to look down on him. As he thought of this, his eyes turned extrely cold as his killing intent surged into the air.r
Then, he imdiately kicked at Jack, thinking that it would be good if he could take the opportunity where Jack was still looking down on him so that he could deal a lot of damage to him.r
Tup!r
The kick landed. But, spider's eyes contracted as he gazed at his right leg that was still hanging in the kicking position.r
At this ti, his kick that contained a lot of power had indeed landed on the target as the target didn't move. But, the leg had actually landed in Jack's palm that in turn easily blocked the kick, it was as if there was no power behind the kick.r
Jack smiled before he folded his fingers and gripped onto spider's leg. Spider wanted to retract his leg but it was too late as Jack had already taken action.r
Putting in so strength in his left hand, Jack pulled spider using his leg before he threw him. With his strength, it wasn't hard for him to throw a man.r
Spider hadn't expected that Jack would do sothing like that. And seeing that he was going to hit a tree, he imdiately used his hands to protect his head.r
Bang! Thud!r
The speed at which he was thrown was fast in that the mont that his body hit the tree bark first, there was a sound of the collision before he fell onto the ground.r
At this mont, spider understood what was ant to fear soone. To be able to throw a man who weighed over 60kg using one hand, and to be able to do that easily, just what kind of strength did jack actually possess?r
Currently, spider could feel that he was hurt and his combat strength had been greatly diminished. He felt that his spinal cord had been injured and with every simple movents that he made, he was going through a lot of pain.r
Seeing that spider was actually struggling to stand up, Jack smiled and said, "You are a disappointnt if you are actually amongst the top ten assassins in the country. You are so weak in that you are already down with one of my moves."r
Hearing Jack's words, spider who was initially struggling to get back onto his feet gritted his teeth in anger. But all the sa, he knew that he was no match for Jack.r
But for his reputation, especially in front of his subordinates, he didn't continue staying on the ground. He still gritted his teeth and stood up through the tearing pain that he felt on his spinal cord.r
He was lucky that the spinal cord wasn't broken. Otherwise, his limbs would have been paralyzed imdiately. And as of now, he could only use the tree as a source of support so that he wouldn't fall to the ground.r
"So, why don't you tell about how and why you know about my mother? And if you can, also tell who sent you to assassinate Johnathan." Jack clapped his hands and asked with a cold smile.r
To an assassin, Jack would never be kind at all. If he had to kill for the first ti, then he would definitely do that without hesitation. After all, if he didn't kill, he would end up dead.r
What's more, who could guarantee that this guy wouldn't be given a mission to co and assassinate him or his loved ones in the future? So, he dared not to leave dangers that would co hunting him in the future to make him regret his decisions.r
"Give it…up.. there's no way that… I'm going to…tell you a… thing…" Still going through a lot of pain, spider replied.r
"Okay then. Let's see if this will make you speak." Jack said before stomping on the neck of the guy that was already knocked out by him.r
Crack!r
The sound of bones breaking could be heard as Jack crushed the neck of the guy, ending his life.r
Spider never expected that Jack would use such a move on him. The three people with him were actually those that he had been training for years. After he felt that they were good enough, he would take them with him on missions that were not dangerous.r
They were the ones that would do the stalking before informing him. He would let them finish the job if the opponent was weak. So, till this ti, he had developed so good relationship with them and they were like family to him. Seeing one of them die, he was grief stricken and angry at the sa ti.r
"What about now? Can you talk?" Jack's voice drifted to his ears.r
