Chapter 179: Chapter 179 - Killing Instinct
What they saw was that in front of them was the collapsed restaurant with its walls and other parts being fallen on the ground already.
Normally someone wouldn't survive something like this and in most likely cases they would get crushed under the rubble. Even the ones with mana related strength would at least get some crucial injury to their bodies.
But the ones that were inside weren't anything close to normal.
One was a master at the art of the sword and the other having mastered a few special breathing skills which among them one had the skill to increase one's physical capabilities to their utmost capabilities.
Their sight was filled with the dust and other things that were inside the collapsed building. But the rubble quickly flew away with what seemed like a mighty flap.
The dust quickly went away and the team of bodyguards were clearly able to see what had happened inside.
What they saw was that their boss and the wanted man were still sitting at the table as they were before with no injury or anything to signify that some kind of calamity had befallen them a while ago.
But that wasn't the thing that baffled the bodyguards.
What shocked them was the lighting field surrounding them or more likely surrounding the table.
An electric field was placed around the table in a circular way that surrounded the people inside it completely.
Not only that but any kinds of rubble or parts of the building that would have fallen on them were obstructed by the electric field and burst away into nothingness.
The electric field was the only thing that was surrounding them and nothing else was there.
The perimeters beyond the electric field had been destroyed or in a better word 'Cut' away by Adam.
If one saw this scene then they would describe it as a terrifyingly beautiful scene.
Suddenly the electric field surrounding them slowly started to dissolve around them by itself.
In the next moment the electric field was no more and both people were now open to the outside world.
William looked around him as he smiled slowly and put his hands inside his clothes and got something out.
He pulled out the small version of Clawdia and patted her head a few times as he praised her.
"Good Girl. Your timing was excellent."
Clawdia felt very happy as she was patted and praised. She meowed in front of everyone but it was a completely different meaning to William.
'Thank you Master. Clawdia is your biggest bodyguard so it was my job to keep you safe.'
"Yeah you did a great job, much better than the people over here."
William said and his voice was loud enough for everyone to hear him and his bodyguards to lower their heads in shame.
.
'Yes Master. Baldy's people are not that good at protecting you. You should get rid of them.'
"You're right, I should get rid of these people."
Hearing his words the bodyguards quickly became scared as they thought that their boss was very angry at their inept response to the danger.
They thought of his dangerous cat as an example to make them feel fear for their future. They knew that this job had its great advantages if one were to successfully do his job.
But it also had its dangers as well. Someone who wasn't good at their job or the best at their response, than they would get punished severely.
They looked at the small cat in his arms and feared for their lives and if that was not the case then there was also Delmar.
Who would definitely not let them get away with this failure.
Adam looked at the scene and he too had thoughts but not like them.
'This cat… just what the hell is it! My instincts are telling me to stay away from it.'
'And more than that, not only does this thing feel extremely dangerous but it can also communicate with this boy in their minds.'
'Just who is this kid and why the hell does he have something so dangerous with him?'
'And why the f*ck is this thing purring like a normal cat!'
Feeling the eyes of the wanted man on her, Clawdia quickly looked at him and said.
'Master, what about this man?'
"Who, him?" William pointed at Adam while Clawdia nodded.
Suddenly being asked about himself by a killer cat made Adam a little apprehensive but he didn't do anything to make it seem like he was.
'Yes, Master. He doesn't feel like a good person.'
William then asked the next words in their minds.
'Does he also feel like Delmar?'
'Who?'
'Delma- I mean Baldy.'
'Oh! Him… No he doesn't feel like that. Baldy feels like he is a much more bad baldy but this person… this guy doesn't feel like he is as bad as baldy.'
William thought to himself as he heard what Clawdia said.
'Incredible! To be a professional killer but not be that bad of a person.'
'No. I got that wrong. It's not that Adam isn't that bad, It's Delmar who is much worse.'
'Still to retain even a little bit of humanity in this line of work in itself is incredible.'
'But I do have to give my hats off to Delmar.
The guy was even more terrible than someone who's close to the pinnacle of assassinating people.'
'That only tells me one thing… I got a good subordinate.'
As he was thinking to himself, he suddenly asked.
'Clawdia in terms of power, who do you think is stronger? Him or Baldy.'
'Definitely him. He might not have as much physical strength as Baldy but in other aspects he seems to be the stronger one.'
'Well that didn't take her much long to say.'
'So clearly this guy seems to be the real deal.'
'And even if he was not much stronger than Delmar. The guy did a pretty cool trick back there.'
'Alright, If I were to ever ask you to kill him… Could you do it?'
Clawdia had a thoughtful expression to herself as she said.
'It might be a little tough but yes I can kill him.'
William gave a small sigh of relief internally.
'Well at least she is strong enough to handle him. Otherwise what is the point of having a strong subordinate if you cannot handle that person.'
'Why do you ask, Master?'
'Oh just nothin-'
'Do you want Clawdia to kill him?'
Saying that, Clawdia immediately looked at Adam with a different demeanor.
Adam felt a great amount of murderous aura towards him and he quickly jumped back and repositioned himself in a defensive manner while using his sword to defend himself.
William immediately stopped her.
'No no, It's okay, Clawdia. He too will be joining us.'
'Oh, Okay Master.'
Saying that, Clawdia quickly dispersed the aura she threw at him.
Adam looked at the small cat who purred in William's arms and fear could be seen on his face.
'What terrible murderous aura!'
