Chapter 1515: Intimidating Others
Brook Bridge City
The servant brought me the dishes. I began to listen to the conversation while enjoying the food. The news of the lake city had reached here as well.
Everyone knows about the attack on the City Lord’s office, but the matter of the Wood and Grave Family was suppressed. Still, it can’t be hidden for long.
The other forces would try to find out the reason, so I have to deal with the Foster Family soon. The real challenge is the size.
The size of the Foster Family is big. Their core member circle is huge. The core members might have knowledge about their betrayal. If so, they have to die.
But there is positive news for me. I could find more resources in their Treasury. I could break through to the Purple Lightning Method with those resources.
Ten minutes later, I paid the bill before leaving the restaurant. Then I followed the usual method. I approached a cab driver and asked him to take me around the city.
The cab departed from the place. While it was moving in mid-air, my gaze fell on the passing scenes. Like I had thought, the city is huge. I cannot find the end of the city.
There were only skyscrapers covering my view.
It didn’t take long for the cab driver to remind me about the powerful warrior families here. Since the driver had brought it up, I used the opportunity to ask him to show me the gates of famous families.
The driver agreed. He didn’t find anything suspicious. It’s usual for visitors from low-level cities to want to see the places of the warrior families.
The driver agreed and didn’t ask any questions. I sighed inwardly. I started thinking about the next plan. It’s not easy to approach Victor Foster.
He is the Head of the Family. He may or may not be present in the family.
Time passed.
The driver took me around the famous families. Finally, it was the turn of the Foster Family. The Foster Family is located not in a private area, but instead behind the business area.
Almost half of the businesses belong to them. They can keep an eye on the family business that way. That’s why the place is convenient for them.
When the cab came to the place, I told the cab driver to stop. The cab landed on the ground. I stepped out and paid the fare to the driver.
The cab was gone from the place. My gaze then swept across the area. I saw the restaurant, bakery, store, and other businesses in the name of the Foster Family.
I entered the cafeteria and found a place to sit down. After ordering a cup of coffee, I started observing the mansion of the Foster Family.
While I was observing the place, I found the staff working in the shop were looking at me from time to time.
A quick gleam appeared in my eyes. Don’t tell me the staff working here are collecting intel as well? When I thought about it, I felt it was logical.
Maybe I should use this opportunity to attack the Foster Family. But I was not in a hurry. The staff brought the coffee. He gave me a deep look.
The strength of the staff was Silver Mark only. But his attitude was wrong. Clearly, he knew my strength was greater than his.
But I had hidden the strength of my blood energy. The blood method had already entered the Purple Mark Rank.
If I had released the blood energy, he would have been terrified.
Yet the Silver Mark Warrior was not afraid. I’m sure it will alert the Manager of the shop, but I continued with my probing. This time I didn’t even hide it. I kept looking toward the mansion.
On the other hand, the staff looked at each other. They felt something was wrong with the customer. If it were anyone else, they would have directly confronted the person.
But the person here was a Gold Mark Warrior. None of them here were Gold Mark Warriors except the Manager. Then they went back inside the room and informed the manager.
The manager of this place was not here. He had gone to another shop to inspect. He will return here soon.
Ten minutes later,
I finished the cup of coffee, but I didn’t stand up from the place. I had thought someone would come to trouble me.
But nothing like that had happened. It didn’t take long for a burly, middle-aged man to arrive. He was dressed in a tuxedo.
The staff were happy and sighed in relief. They were worried that the masked man would leave the shop.
The burly man then looked at the staff. They turned towards the masked man.
The burly man saw the masked man in the corner. He saw through the strength of the masked man. Seeing that the masked man was a Gold Mark Warrior, his eyes gleamed with a twinkle.
He walked up to the masked man. Seeing that the masked man continued to look towards the mansion, his eyes turned cold.
"Customer, who are you?"
"Do you know what you are doing right now?" he asked.
Hearing that, my mouth curved into an arc.
"I’m appreciating the mansion. Do you have a problem?" I asked back.
Hearing that, the Manager’s anger flared up. He raised his hand, trying to grab my shoulder.
I noticed the Manager’s actions. The next second, I released the blood power.
Boom!
A dark red blood power burst forth from my bones. It immediately struck the body of the manager.
Argh!
The Manager was sent flying away like a broken kite. His body directly slammed into the walls. When his body landed on the ground, everyone saw his broken bones and internal organs.
The Manager looked bloodied. He was close to death right now.
On the other hand, the staff were terrified. They were frozen like statues. They were just Silver Mark Warriors. The Purple Mark Blood energy would have killed them right away.
I saw the reaction of the staff. Then I concealed the blood energy. The next second, the staff got a breather.
