Hitman x Wives Chapter 46 46- Visitor

Chapter 46 Chapter 46- Visitor

Gabi's tone sounded so casual that for a second, even Trevor forgot that he was talking about his blood-related brother and that sent a chill down his spine. It was as if his eldest son considered his younger brother as something insignificant to even pretend to care about.

'This b.a.s.t.a.r.d… He really turned into a monster in and out!' Trevor clenched his teeth as he held in a sigh from escaping his mouth.

"You aren't going to back down when I need you, are you?! We have to destroy that s.h.i.tty family together!" Trevor decided to change his approach with Gabi.

The latter yawned before he shoved his finger in his ear and then said.

"As I said, old man. I'm helping you. Stop crying, geez."

"Then get up and move your a.s.s!!" He yelled.

"Sigh, so dumb, as usual. All muscles and no brains." Gabi said with a soulless tone.

"What di-"

"A direct confrontation will send your head rolling down." The cold man's hand moved and made a gesture of him slitting his own throat.

"Who are you think that way?! Huh?!" Trevor's face turned red with fury.

"I'm stronger and smarter than you," Gabi replied. "Listen here, old man. You are approaching this matter the wrong way. Look at these idiots here. You gathered a bunch of n.o.bodies to take down a family that has three top-notch hitmen." His disdainful remark made all the hitmen glare at him coldly, but that didn't even get Gabi to flinch let alone show a reaction. In fact, he continued talking with a lazy tone. "I say give them 1 hour and you will find these morons sent back to you in a birthday present."

Trevor's face turned sour as he found himself speechless. Although this son of his was a complete monster, he was still extremely smart. If he said that these 100 hitmen he hired wouldn't be able to do the job, then he was most likely right.

However, that didn't make Trevor any happier. Only he knew how much he had to spend just to get these hitmen. It was an astronomical fortune.

"What do you say we should do then?! Give up?!"

"Tsk, tsk. The best way to beat them is to break their spirit first. When fear and despair kick in, power becomes meaningless. That's when you truly attack them." Gabi explained with an emotionless tone. His words sent a shudder down the spines of all the people present.

"Gabi… What the h.e.l.l are you trying to say?!"

"Simple, two people you should target first. The youngest daughter of the Lavine family, Melissa Lavine. She's still too young to be a hitman so she has no power at all. She's the weakest point they have."

"..."

"Then, there is the second person and the one I found the most interesting. Agent 74 or I should say Eva Lavine had made friends with an inconspicuous young man. She seems to be quite fond of him. Kill him and watch how all the family comes crumbling down like a house of cards."

'This b.a.s.t.a.r.d thought of all of that? Didn't he seem unbothered at first?' Trevor was confused but he had no idea how Gabi's brain even worked. That monster would do anything to take down his targets, even going as far as to use low-handed methods like targeting the innocent just so that he could torture his targets mentally before he finishes them off.

"Are you certain of this plan, Gabi?" Trevor finally asked in a rather lower tone.

The latter, however, suddenly turned to look at the door, and then for the first time since he appeared inside the conference hall, a smile appeared on his lips.

"Oh, we have our long-awaited visitor finally."

At that second, the door was opened and the dark silhouette of a person appeared in front of the ma.s.ses. At that exact second, an extremely powerful aura invaded the whole conference room.

The aura was so powerful that it made all the hitmen in the place feel as if they were suffocating. Then, the moment the man stepped inside the conference, they all started holding their throats as if the air had suddenly vanished from the place.

"Aaaah~ You scared the old man's chickens. How are they gonna lay eggs now?" Gabi asked with a bored tone as he looked at the crushed group of hitmen.

Trevor's face turned sweaty as he felt the looming pressure that pressed on his body like a huge boulder. If it wasn't for his high level of strength, Trevor would've ended up in the same state as these hitmen.

'This crushing pressure!! It's as if I'm being strangled alive. f.u.c.k!' Clenching his teeth, Trevor tried to keep his ground.

"Patriarch Charlamagne…" A deep, husky voice finally spoke as the man walked inside the room casually, revealing his appearance.

He was an old man, probably nearing his 70s. He had long white hair and a rather elegant formal suit. His face didn't seem menacing at all. However, the robotic expression he held made looking at him for a long time something uncomfortable. It was as if his face was an uncanny valley concept made into reality.

"We received the declaration of war between the two families. Since neither of you broke the rules, the guild shall not intervene. Rule 10: If a party or an individual sends a declaration of war to another party or individual and they accept, the duel is by default eligible and the guild won't stop it. In your case, the declaration of war was your son's head and since he isn't affiliated with the guild in any way, shape, or form, it doesn't break the rules. Am I correct?"

"... Yes."

Trevor already knew of that rule and so did Eva and Markus. Fighting the other family directly without sending a warning and a declaration of war would make the guild intervene. That's why Eva made sure to make it formal first and foremost.

"Good, since both parties accept the duel, the Guild allows it. Sign these papers please." The man said as he finally reached Trevor and handed him a stack of paper that he pulled from somewhere.

"Eeeeeh? That's boring. Just get it over with so I can leave, old man." Sighing tiredly, Gabi looked back at the man and a smile appeared on his face.

"Hey, tell me something, V. The Red Rose Day of this year, it's going to be fun, isn't it?"

The old man's eyes glanced at Gabi once before he said coldly.

"Agent 34, are you trying to break the rules?" His cold aura concentrated on Gabi for a few seconds. A normal human would've instantly lost consciousness under that inhuman pressure.

"So scary. Of course not, I wouldn't dare~ I was just curious since my guts are telling me this year will be quite different."

"..." The man named V didn't say anything else and waited for Trevor to sign the papers and seal the duel.

"Aaaah, ever since the Black Phantom vanished. The Red Rose Day became really boring, you know? Everyone used to try and fight him to s.n.a.t.c.h his rank and yet no one was able to beat him. Hahahaha, he was my idol. The ideal hitman. Is he going to finally make an appearance this year? A little birdie told me he was sighted somewhere in the world, wreaking havoc."

V's eyes squinted slightly as he eyed Gabi. The latter kept blabbering on about the Black Phantom with a wide smile. It was clear how excited he was about the mere idea of seeing his idol again.

"Agent 0 won't return to the Guild. He is blacklisted."

"Pfft! I still find that word funny, V. The Guild must be on some kind of drug to think Blacklisting him is going to do anything. That person is a pure monster, a creature like no other. If he sets his mind to it, the Guild won't live to see the light of day. It's as if a rat is trying to capture a ferocious bear. Would that make sense?"

"Know your place, Agent 34. Any other word and I'm going to consider your words a clear insult to the Guild and a breaking of the rules."

Suddenly, the room was submerged in an even colder atmosphere as Gabi and V stared at each other silently. The lazy man had a nonchalant smile on his face while V was looking as eerily unthreatening as ever.

The tension was so high that Trevor felt his body shudder at the mere thought of these two clashing here. His whole property will be blasted into smithereens!

"H-Here, I signed the paper! You can leave now!" Trevor said as he coughed and handed back the stack of papers. "And you, Gabi! Just do whatever you see fit! I just want to see the Lavines dead!"

At that moment, Gabi finally stood and cracked his neck.

"Yes sir~ Time to have some fun." A wide, maniacal grin appeared on his face.
