nBam.

nEli delivered a final kick to the spy, sending the Spy rolling once again.

nEli looked at him in disdain and snapped his fingers.

n

"Great King!

"

n3 of his subordinates stepped forward and saluted him.

n

"Get him cleaned and changed,

" Eli said while pushing back his hair charmingly and taking his seat.

nAnd might before everyone's eyes, they started stripping the spy, revealing the most gruesome body ever.

nF***!

nHow had this guy been walking with such wounds?

nEveryone grimaced a bit and rolled their throats as they started at the man's body.

nEli's subordinates quickly took off the man's bloodied clothes, used them to wipe his body before bringing out a new set of clothes for the bastard to wear.

nHey, those on laundry duty would handle things from here.

nEli sweet his cold gaze at all gang leaders and scoffed arrogantly.

nTaking his throne was impossible.

nSure, those bastards, William and Landon, might've succeeded in teaming up and taking his throne.

nBut after that time, he dared not underestimate anyone ever again.

nHe would never give up any throne ever again.

nEven the one here.

nIt was his, and his alone, until the day he left this hell hole.

nHere, only he could reign supreme.

nAnd he would rather die than let someone else have it!

nAs for what the idiot thought, Eli didn't plan to go easy on him and was prepared to give him hell.

nHeh.

nWho asked the bastard to go against him?

nHe got what he deserved!

n.

nAnd so just like that, Eli had his hands full.

nBut of course, he wasn't the only one.

nAnother day went by in a flash, with many people currently going crazy with excitement.

nHahahhahahah.

nIt was finally here.

nTomorrow, the Arcade Center will get opened for business!

nAnd all across Baymard's Capital city, it didn't matter if they were young or old.

nEveryone looked forward to playing games in the arcade center.

nBaymard had given them so many incredible games like Chess, scrabble, dungeons and dragons, monopoly, jigsaws, and so on... Not to talk of the action figures, toys, and even sports games like soccer.

nSo with its impressive resume of never disappointing them, how could they not look forward to tomorrow's event?

n

"God!

nDid you see the advert?

nF***! I want to play it so badly.

"

n

"Me too!

nMy elder brother also got selected as one of the people who tested out the game and gave feedback.

nHe said it was so awesome that they almost had to drag her out!

nHe said her best game was something called Pac-Man.

"

n

"Eh? Coincidentally, my sister was chosen to test it out too.

nShe said he liked something called Mrs. Pac-Man and another that was classified as a pinball machine themed after the Jurassic Park book.

"

n

"Really? Awesome!

nIt's just that I don't know what a pinball machine is?

"

n

"Hahahahhahaha.

nWho really knows these things?

nWouldn't we know tomorrow?

"

n

"Heh. My friend tried to trick me into taking her shift, but I quickly caught on.

nWhat a joke! When it comes to things like this, does friendship matter?

"

n

"Hahahahahaha. My elder sister tried to do the same thing, calling me on the phone and asking me if I could babysit her newborn baby.

nOf course, I pretended as if the lines weren't going through and cut the call off.'

n

" Bahahahahaha!

nSmart move. I would totally do the same thing.

nWhy should I have to give up my chance for someone else?

nUnless they are dying, I won't dare miss out on it!

n

"Dammit! Why is it still afternoon?

nWhy can't the day go any faster?

nTomorrow is the big day, so why can't the sun set now?

"

n

"F***! Just watching the commercials and seeing the poster has left me in tears.

n

n

nI want to play now!

"

n

"Hey! Who else thinks that this October has been eventful?

nJust last week, the Aquarium hotel near the Zoo opened.

nAnd even though we didn't spend the night there, my family still paid for day passes.

nDamn. It was awesome!

nWe scuba-dived deep into some massive space of water and found a hidden kingdom underneath.

nWe swam amidst the fish and tried to do the treasure hunts down there.

"

n

"Ahhh... Me too. We were there as well.

nBut we tried indoor surfing instead.

nBro, that sh** is hard as hell.

nI fell so many times in front of my crush.

nHow embarrassing.

"

n

"Hahahahhahahaha

"

n(^0^)

n.

nThe entire Baymard was bubbling with excitement, but their joy didn't seem to make some happy.

nIn particular, 3 visitors were currently pacing their hotel room back and forth, all the while looking outside the window from time to time.

nTheir entire hotel room was filled with countless newspapers lying all over the floor, stacks of cassettes on doc.u.mentaries, pamphlets and so on.

nOne of them poured himself a glass of whisky and gulped down a large chunk.

n

"Black! Wind! We might have to push our attacks back.

"

nBlack Dog looked at the Tv and nodded:

"I know. With this new thing coming out, our target would definitely get escorted and taken to the Arcade Centre for its launch. So the plane won't work.

"

n

"Agreed. We need to push it back.

nFrom my observations through the newspapers, doc.u.mentaries, and even the information gathered from others... It's safe to assume that whenever there's a launch event or an official invitation, the Baymardian royals attend the event with guards.

nSo it appears that they aren't completely lax as we assumed.

nBut, the good thing is that they seem to only have guards around during official ceremonies, events or public invites.

nSo we can only strike after this event.

" Wind Catcher added while drinking a shot of vodka mixed with cranberry.

n~Ahhh.

nGood stuff!

n.

nEveryone nodded in agreement as they decided to put their plan on hold.

nWhat choice did they have?

nFor the successful assassination of Winnie Elms, they needed to strike when security around her was non-existent.

nThey had read countless newspaper articles and had even watched many doc.u.mentaries on historical comments like Mother Kim's wedding, the launch of the automobiles and so on... All of which Winnie still came with guards.

nIn every cassette, be it a fashion show, launch event, celebrating ever and whatnot, Winnie was always guarded all the time, giving no one a chance to act.

nSo they dared not risk it.

nBut, even though they wouldn't act now, they still decided to attend tomorrow's launch event.

nAs they say: 'Keeping one's enemies closer will bring them one step to victory.'

nWith that, the trio laid back and drank their worries away.

nAs for Landon, he was the most excited person of all.

nFinally, he would get his rewards!
