Catastrophe Card King
Chapter 1476 - Chapter 1476 Chapter 452 Murder for Goods_3

Chapter 1476: Chapter 452: Murder for Goods_3 Chapter 1476: Chapter 452: Murder for Goods_3 When the Family Head inquired, he could only answer truthfully, “Young Master, this distinguished guest wishes to purchase intelligence on the Emperor’s Relics.”

“…”

A flash of severity appeared in Ferren’s eyes–he was indeed aiming for their top-secret intelligence.

It was pointless to discuss how intelligence had leaked now, so he knowingly asked, “Huh, didn’t your Landon House purchase a ‘Curse God Card’ for a hefty sum at the Rainbow Consortium? Why are you still interested in the little piece of intelligence my Simon House has?”

Young Master Sack was already in the wrong, and now that someone had caught him off guard, he found himself at a loss for words.

However, upon hearing these words, a flash of severity passed quietly over Leonard Churchill’s eyes.

Previously he had only suspected, but now he was almost certain.

Ferren continued to mock, “Oh, I heard you were assassinated yesterday, Young Master Sack, and lost a Supreme treasure. No way, it couldn’t be…”

“Let’s go!”

Before he could finish his taunt, Sack left in a huff, pushing through the crowd with two guards and a goatee in tow.

…

After a visit to the Black Market,

Young Master Sack not only failed to acquire the information he wanted but was also humiliated by his enemy.

As the only two prospective knights following him, Leonard Churchill and Serli could hear Young Master Sack grinding his teeth and cursing all the way, “I want him dead…”

Back on the surface, Young Master Sack, with a face dark as thunder, stormed into the hotel and didn’t come out again.

The goatee, knowing his place, didn’t follow him but went in search of other information instead.

And the prospective knights like Leonard Churchill also had some time to themselves.

They could have taken this time to explore Giant Spirit City.

But after returning to the hotel, Leonard Churchill’s six-person squad gathered together.

Because Young Master Sack had once again rewarded the six-man squad with some money, especially giving Leonard Churchill and Serli extra shares.

It seemed to be a recognition of their performance in defending Sack at the Black Market.

However, looking at the bounty, the expressions on the faces of Leonard Churchill and Serli became complex.

Unable to keep his thoughts to himself, Garfield directly asked, “Young Master’s face was so dark just now… Serli, what happened at the Black Market?”

Hearing this, Serli responded with a helpless tone, “Well…indeed, there was an unpleasant experience…”

Concerning a sensitive issue, he was not in a position to detail the process of their Young Master’s embarrassment.

While speaking, he looked at Leonard Churchill with some difficulty.

He knew that although this teammate usually spoke little, his thinking and judgment were definitely reliable, so he asked, “Brother Allen, what are you thinking?”

Garfield and the others instantly cast their curious gazes over.

They had thought they would hear the real story, but to their surprise, Leonard Churchill, after a moment’s contemplation, made a startling statement, “I think… we need to go kill a few people.”

“Huh?”

As soon as he said this, Garfield and the others were stunned.

They couldn’t understand how a trip to the Black Market was connected to killing people.

Leonard Churchill simply clarified, “Young Master lost face; it must be recovered. Besides, we previously offended that Young Master, and even if we don’t act, that fellow will certainly find an opportunity to kill us.”

Serli remained silent.

In fact, he had thought of this as well.

He also felt it was a necessity.

A guard’s duty is not just to protect the Family Head but also to share worries for their master.

Previously, when Young Master Sack said “I want him dead…” it was not a simple curse but a clever command.

The delivered bounty had already made it clear.

…

The Landon Family and Simon Family have been fighting for hundreds of years, with irreconcilable hatred.

But Dragon Descendants still had basic rules.

Children’s fights were just that–children’s fights.

The conflict generally didn’t escalate.

It couldn’t always be that adults had to step in over every little conflict.

This was an unspoken agreement.

There were many offspring of the Dragon Descendants, and it didn’t matter if a few died.

Both families, in fact, encouraged such conflicts and would train their offspring to handle emergencies.

Those who survived would be qualified to inherit the family business.

In Leonard Churchill’s deduction, this conflict had already led to many possible outcomes.

In the end, it wasn’t certain which Young Master would die…

But these Knights, the cannon fodder, would certainly die in droves during the conflict.

Especially Leonard Churchill and another–he was destined to die.

Dragon Descendants inherited the Great Dragon’s cunning and deceitful nature; a previous offense was reason enough for the death of their lackeys.

Of course, this minor threat was nothing in Leonard Churchill’s eyes.

He mentioned this plan not only to play the role of “Allen” better and do what he was supposed to do.

Moreover, he was curious about the intelligence on the Emperor’s Relics and the fact that the ‘Elemental Elf’ had not yet been retrieved from the shop.

Therefore, Leonard Churchill planned to strike first.

And teach Young Master Ferren a lesson.

…

Upon hearing this, Garfield and the others then realized what their Young Master had encountered at the Black Market.

As knights of Sack, even in death, they would not allow their master house to suffer such great humiliation.

Face had to be reclaimed.

Gale, who was staunchly loyal and of the Landon Family herself, saw no issue with Leonard Churchill’s thoughts.

But she gave it some thought and still voiced her concern, “But won’t reckless action cause trouble for our master house? After all, the Simon Family is not easy to provoke…”

Serli had already fully caught onto Leonard Churchill’s line of thinking and said, “If we succeed, no one will know it was us. If we fail, then it’s ‘personal behavior,’ unrelated to the Landon Family. Dead is dead…”

Upon saying this, even the slowest to react, Garfield, understood.

Continuing, Serli also said, “And we must act fast. If we wait too long and the other side reacts, it won’t be easy to find people.”
