Murderous intent flashed across Silviaâs eyes, and she instinctively touched her waist. âAre you saying thereâs no room for negotiation?â
Scorpion glanced at her indifferently as if she were a feeble prey on her last breath.
âI advise you not to act rashly. Iâve placed many people around Madam Remusâ ward. If I die, she wonât survive the night.â
Silvia bit her lip and coldly asked, âWhat do I need to do for you to stop harming the people around me?â
âItâs quite simple. Bring my comrades back to life.â
âI killed them because of the mission. You know Full Moonâs rules. While you probably want revenge, Iâm not the real enemy here!â
Scorpion sneered. âI donât care about the rules. When you accepted the mission, you shouldâve been prepared for the consequences!â
Without warning, Silvia shot up from her seat. She charged at him at lightning speed and pressed her dagger against his neck.
âRemove the people around Madam Remus!â
Scorpion cocked an eyebrow in amusement. âDo you think you can kill me?â
Silvia laughed and said, âEven if I canât kill you, I can remove your mask. Iâm sure many are curious about what you look like. Since youâve returned to the country, it shouldnât be too hard to uncover your identity, should it?â
Scorpion narrowed his eyes dangerously. Then, he chuckled and said, âI can give you a chance. If you walk out of this room alive today, Iâll remove the people around Madam Remus. How about that?â
âDeal!â she replied with almost no hesitation.
âIâm looking forward to your performance.â
His voice carried a hint of mockery, and Silvia found it somewhat familiar. However, before she could pinpoint where she had heard this voice before, his subordinates closed in with their weapons.
She evaded their attacks and charged at them.
The room had two floors, and Scorpion leisurely walked up the upper floor with his wine glass. From there, he watched the fight with keen interest.
His subordinates were former mercenaries. While Silvia was skilled in fighting, her energy began to wane after she killed five or six of them. She also suffered a few injuries.
Recognizing her weakening state, they deliberately slowed their pace.
They had a strong desire to kill and torment her in their eyes. Those she had previously killed were also their comrades. They hated her, so their attacks were ruthless.
Silvia quickly killed two opponents but not without getting injured herself. She had numerous wounds on her body.
The remaining few attacked her, but they were also defeated after about ten minutes.
Scorpion clapped his hands with a smile and said, âImpressive.â
Silvia wiped the blood from her face and looked at him with hostility. âI hope youâll keep your word.â
âOf course, but this isnât the end of it. Iâll torment you slowly so that you live in pain.â
Silvia left the private room without another word.
She eventually pushed herself out of the bar, but her body reached its limit, and she fainted.
When she woke up, she was surprised to find herself in a hospital ward.
She slowly sat up, but every move triggered pain all over her body.
Suddenly, she heard a gentle voice. âAre you awake? Please donât move. The doctor said you lost a lot of blood and need to rest.â
Silvia looked up, and her heart skipped a beat when she saw Liam.
âWhy are you here?â
Liam smiled and explained, âMy friends and I were at the bar. When we came out, we saw a group of people gathered by the road. As I got closer, I realized that you had fainted on the road, so I brought you to the hospital.â
Seeing that he did not ask why she was injured, Silvia expressed her gratitude, âThank you.â
âNo problem at all. Iâve already informed Neil, so he should be on his way. Iâll head back now.â

His eyes were filled with displeasure when he saw Silvia in bandages.
âCurtis, wait outside.â
After the door closed, Neil stopped his wheelchair by her bed.
âHow did you get injured? Why did you go to Lose Demon?!â
