"Who are you?" Vivian asked with a vigilant look on her face while she took a step back as she thought.
’I have never seen this person before’
"Oh you don’t need to know who I am Miss Star, but I do want to know how you know this young man" The person replied with a light smile while pointing at Hutton.
Surprisenly, this person is Harley who previously confronted Hutton back at the Franklin family’s hall. But this time, she looks completely different then before.
Right now she put on a weathered but determined expression, her face lined with experience. She stands tall, with the confident stance of someone who has faced many challenges. Her all-black camouflage suit fits snugly, accentuating her toned physique and blending seamlessly with her surroundings. Despite the camouflage, there’s an air of authority about her, a sense that she’s seen it all and emerged stronger every time.
’Why do I feel like I need to stop this dialogue from going further?’ Hutton thought with a serious look on his face. But before he could plan on what to do next, Vivian suddenly answered which shockingly took both Hutton and Harley off guard.
"He is my boyfriend"
’Although am deeply shocked as to how she got to know my secret name. At least I can try and use it to restrain her from harming any of us’ Vivian thought with a pondering look deep within her eyes.
’Shit! Since when was I your boyfriend!!?’ Hutton thought as he instantly turned his head to look at Vivian with wide eyes. But before he could say anything, Harley suddenly spoke up.
"Oh really? Thank you Miss Star, you just gave me one more reason to kill this bastard"
"What?" Vivian muttered with a blank look on her face. But at this point Hutton didn’t notice this, as his full attention now rest on Harley while he said.

"Look, am person you are after. Please let the rest go"
"Hutton!!?"
"Boss!!?"
"Shut up!!!" Not too long after both Jake and Vivian exclaimed, Hutton exclaimed back with a serious look on his face while he still stared at Harley. After staying silent for a few seconds, Harley eventually gave her reply.
"Of cause, I was sent to kill you and not anyone else. Am not evil after all"
"Thank you. Jake, take Vivian out of here" Hutton said with a slightly relieved tone. But when Jake heard him, his expression quickly became grave as he said.
"But boss..."
"Jake, do you trust me?" But right when he wanted to finish his sentence, Hutton suddenly interrupted him with a question. After staying silent for a short while, Jake eventually answered with a deep voice.
"Yes boss"
"Then please take her away" Hutton said with a serious tone in his voice. When Jake heard him, he first took in a deep breath before he answered.
"Ok boss"
"Hey! Am not going anywhere without you!!" As soon as Jake gave Hutton his answer, Vivian suddenly spoke up with an unwilling look on her face. But no one gave her a reply as Jake suddenly took hold of her and quickly put her in the off road vehicle.
"Let me out of here Jake!!" Vivian exclaimed with a furious look on her face while she banged on one of the door’s window.
"Am sorry Miss but I can’t" Jake said with an apologetic tone as he entered the drivers seat and started the engine.
But before he drove off, he first looked at Hutton who was placing his full attention on Harley with a worried look on his face as he thought.
’Please come back safely boss’
Right after that, Jake quickly march on the accelerator and quickly drove off into the forest.
"Now that they are gone, how do you want to die?" Not too long after Jake drove out of that place, Harley suddenly asked with a cold look on her face as she began to slowly walk towards Hutton.
But oddly, Hutton didn’t seem perturbed by Harley closing the gap between them. He was even giving out a light smirk which stunned Harley a little.
’Why does he look so unbothered?’ Harley thought with a confused look on her face. But that expression quickly changed when she saw what suddenly appeared in Hutton’s hand.
"How the hell do you have another swiftwind talisman!!?" Harley exclaimed with a look of disbelief on her face. But Hutton still remained calm and confident as he answered.
"That you need to know. What you do need to know though is that you just aren’t qualified to kill me just yet"
As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows across the forest floor, Hutton, a young cultivator, stood on the edge of the clearing, his heart pounding with anticipation. He clutched the Swiftwind Talisman tightly in his hand, its intricate markings pulsing with a faint blue light.
With a swift motion, Hutton activated the talisman, and a gust of wind whipped around him, lifting his hair and causing his clothes to billow dramatically. His senses sharpened as the talisman’s power surged through him, imbuing his muscles with newfound strength and agility.
’No, I can’t let him get away’ Harley thought with an urgent look on her face as she suddenly dashed towards Hutton.
But Hutton was one step ahead. With a determined gaze, he locked eyes with Harley for a brief moment, a silent challenge passing between them. Then, without hesitation, he darted forward, his movements swift and graceful as he vanished into the dense foliage.
Harley lunged forward, reaching out in a futile attempt to grab Hutton before he could escape. But it was too late. The young cultivator was already gone, his form blending seamlessly with the shadows of the forest as he raced deeper into the unknown, guided by the power of the Swiftwind Talisman.
"To slow" Not too long after Hutton dashed out of that area, Harley suddenly heard a cold voice come into her right ear. When she heard it, her expression quickly became filled with killing intent as she muttered.
"You think you are the only one who has an escape tool? Keep on dreaming"
In the next moment, Harley suddenly brought out a very small black colored pouch and dragged out something from it. As soon as Harley brought out this object, Hutton who keeps on increasing the distance between him and Harley suddenly had a chill run down his spine.
’Wait... Don’t tell me she brought out the Void gate amulet?’ Hutton thought with a darkened face. But unfortunately for him, he was right on point.
The Voidgate Amulet is a mystical artifact wrought from obsidian, its surface as dark as the depths of the night sky. Encased within a delicate silver frame, intricate runes coil and writhe like serpents, pulsating with an otherworldly glow that ebbs and flows like the tides of the cosmos.
At its center, a swirling vortex of inky blackness dances with ethereal energy, drawing the eye into its depths with an irresistible allure. Wisps of shadowy mist seep from its core, tendrils reaching out like ghostly fingers yearning to touch the mortal realm.
Despite its small size, the amulet exudes an aura of ancient power, a whisper of secrets long forgotten and realms beyond mortal comprehension. When held, its weight is deceptively light, yet its presence is palpable, as if the very fabric of reality quivers in its proximity.
To gaze upon the Voidgate Amulet is to peer into the abyss itself, a doorway to realms unknown and mysteries waiting to be unraveled. But wield with caution, for such power comes with a price, and those who dare to harness its might tread a perilous path between worlds.
’Now let’s see how you get away from me’ Harley thought with a menacing smile on her face while she put on the amulet.
In the heart of the dense forest, where shadows danced among ancient trees and the air thrummed with the hum of unseen energies, Harley, a middle-aged veteran cultivator, stood poised with determination.
Her weathered face bore the marks of countless battles, and her eyes gleamed with a fierce resolve as she clutched the Voidgate Amulet, a relic of untold power, in her hand.The forest was her domain, every rustle of leaves and whisper of wind a thread in the tapestry of her awareness.
She had tracked Hutton, the elusive young cultivator, deep into this untamed wilderness, where the tangled undergrowth provided ample cover for his escape.With a whispered incantation, Harley activated the amulet, its dark surface shimmering with arcane energy.
The air around her crackled with anticipation as the swirling vortex at its center pulsed with otherworldly light, casting eerie shadows upon the forest floor. In the next moment, a void portal suddenly appeared right beside her which she swiftly got into.
As for Hutton, he has currently stopped in his tracks as he saw a void portal suddenly appearing right in front of his way. In the next moment, he saw Harley calmly coming out of the portal. Right at this moment, the only thing that came into his mind is...
’F*ck me’
