Chapter 686 Why Tell Me Now?
However, just as Lenny was about to spin the Wheel, his fingers, about to add that last effort, he heard Agent 'X' voice, "are you aware that she is still alive."
This was a very calculated move. One that was set at exactly the right moment lenny was about to spin the Wheel. Unfortunately, even Lenny, although a man like no other, was still a man. those words interrupted the follow of energuy in his body as it increased the spike of blood flow due to shock and therefore, he mistakenly put too much energy as required to spin the wheel. The Wheel spun but Lenny's eyes were not on it. Instead, he turned to Agent 'X' with a very fierce look in his eyes, "what do you mean? Catherine is..."
Agent 'X' suddenly chuckled, a knowing smile on his face, "Got you...!" He laughed some more, "...whoever said anything about Catherine? I only said that she was still alive." Lenny frowned at this. However, the magistri had his eyes on the Wheel. It had stopped. "Wow! Ladies and gentlemen, the Wheel has stopped and what will it be?"
The Wheel had stopped on the image of a tank with liquid inside. However, Lenny could not help but frown at this. After all, this was liquid nitrogen. The Magistri chuckled lowly, "ladies and gentlemen, what a wonderful turn of events. Lenny Tales has spun unto the liquid Nitrogen. You all know what this means right?... It means that..."
"NITROGEN BATH!" the Audience screamed.
The Magistri laughed loudly, and the audience joined him in clapping and cheers. Agent 'x' despite his pain also had a smile on his face. Apparently he was enjoying lenny's soon to be suffering.
"Lenny Tales. you have been dead for so long, i am sure you have forgotten. So I don't mind telling you..." Agent 'X' smiled cheerfully, "Nitorgen becomes liquid at Minus three hundred and twenty degrees Frenheint 320F. At that temperature, the human body becomes so hard it practically becomes an over cooked cookie."
The moment he said this, he laughed some more. However, lenny looked at him with a focused looked. His eyes as if they were about to shoot daggers. "you just said something about her still being alive. Who were you talking about?" "Since you are going to die, i don't mind telling you. You see, BOY! you forget that aside from your loving Catherine, you had another woman in your life. On that had been with you long before Catherine came into the picture."
Lenny raised a brow at Agent 'x'. As far as he was concerned, he knew no one that fit that description. "I am Talking of your mother!" Those words surprised lenny, "she is dead!" he responded.
"Is she!?" Agent 'X' asked sacastically. "After you lost Catherine at my hands, your reputation and capability were damaged. I heard you nearly committed suicide. However, by some means, you managed to get back on your feet again. But that was not all, You even managed to kill your heart. You contracted the murder of your family, Mother and brother to the Assassin Organization. That was a move even I was not expecting. I must admit that it was a very brave move, but tell me, you only contracted their kill. Did you ever follow through to be sure of their death?" Lenny's eyes widened in sudden realization.
Agent 'X' nodded, "Yes! I was the one that took that assignment." He shook his head, "....Considering that once upon a time, You were planning to escape the Organization with your lover, Catherine, surely you know that there are in fact a few ways to trick even the Assassin organization with its vast network."
"And why are you telling me all this? why now?" Lenny asked. he had truly killed his heart when it came to his family. However, it was true that he had, like any human being gone through experiences that might have changed him a bit. He knew that what he did to his mother and his younger was not fair. But at the time, he had only managed to crawl out of a very dark hole of immerse despair. That was a feeling that he never wanted to feel in his life again.
though he was the one that contracted it, it did not matter. Such was the situation of things. After all, he was a human being, and no matter the caliber of person, human beings had a nature of running away from pain and to the solace of pleasure. For him, pleasure was the sound of human flesh tearing at the kiss of his blade. That was Lenny's form of a green earth, filled with the uncomfortable joy of inflicting immerse suffering. So that what happened to him would never happen again, Lenny took the opportunity to end it all once and for all, and therefore, he contracted their deaths. Of course, he knew the kind of person that he was. If he knew who killed his mother and brother, lenny was such a man that he would find the assassin and kill him, even though he was the one that contracted it, it did not matter. Such was the situation of things. Therefore, The Assassin organization only agreed to take the contract on two conditions. the first was that he would not know the Assassin that did it. And secondly, he would only see the bodies after being cremated. The reason for the second rule was because most assassins had their signature killing style and Lenny would track the assain after seeing the wounds on the dead bodies. lenny agreed to the deal. The Assassin Organization had a rich history of incredible kills. Killing two normal people living in a small house was absolutely a piece of cake for them. It was like kill an ant with a huge mountain. Lenny asked Agent 'X' again. "Why the fuck will you tell me that now?" Agent 'X' chuckled, "Well, that's because you have obviously changed since your time after your death, and secondly, because its my right to tell you. After all, i am your father..."
