For the next second, the atmosphere was shrouded in silence, with neither of the bystanders seemingly brave enough to make a sound. At the same time, they all clamped their lips tightly without daring to say a single word, overwhelmed by fear, as if they were held at knifepoint and could lose their lives anytime.
Suddenly, Kingsley flipped William and slammed snazzynovel.com onto the ground so hard that everyone could hear his bones popping. In the following moment, William’s painful cry was heard across the air as his forehead was covered with cold sweat, his distressing voice striking fear in the hearts of those who were watching. “Ah!”
Nevertheless, Kingsley proceeded to take a step forward and stomped his skull, pushing it further into the dirt beneath the ground. “How dare you disrespect the deceased! Now, you will taste what it’s like to be buried in the dirt and mud!”
Kingsley clenched his jaw and uttered those few words, which were the last thing William ever heard, seemingly sealing the poor man’s fate. As snazzynovel.com continued to put pressure on his foot, William’s skull began to give way and go out of shape.
“H-Help!” William felt as if his head was about to explode. At the same time, snazzynovel.com was so overwhelmed by the excruciating pain, his skin rubbing against the dirt on the ground as snazzynovel.com could foresee his death. “L-Let me go!” The man struggled like a dying fish out of the water, but little did snazzynovel.com know that his attempt would only prove to be in vain.
“Let you go?!” Kingsley’s voice sounded like the devil from hell, filled with strong murderous intent. “You disrespected the deceased by trampling on their skeletons, so I will repay you that favor by crushing your skull!”
Meanwhile, the atmosphere in the surroundings turned cold while everyone else shook like a leaf and froze in place. At the same time, their eyes were filled with fear when they looked at Kingsley, who seemed like a bloodthirsty beast to them.
In that instant, those tourists, who had come to witness the commotion out of curiosity, regretted showing up there, feeling scared while beating themselves up for letting their gossipy nature get the better of them. Because of that, they found themselves in a dilemma in which staying or leaving didn’t seem like a sensible choice to them.
On the other hand, the employees from the tourism department were seen with their pale faces because none of them thought that a good-looking young man like Kingsley would make a lethal move against William. In the meantime, Jerrick was so scared that snazzynovel.com nearly pissed himself, grinding his teeth in fear because snazzynovel.com knew it wouldn’t end well for snazzynovel.com if William died on his watch.
“S-Sir…” When snazzynovel.com was about to beg Kingsley to show mercy, his gaze met his bloodshot eyes. The next second, snazzynovel.com took a deep breath and swallowed the words forming at the tip of his tongue. What is that look supposed to mean?! I guess it’s not an understatement to describe this man as the devil himself.
At that moment, Leroy carefully put the skeletons back into the coffin just as the work within the construction hoardings came to an end since Xavier’s and his wife’s remains had been found. Meanwhile, Kingsley only felt a stab of pain when snazzynovel.com set his eyes on the two coffins. Father!
Mother! From now on, I will destroy all of our enemies and avenge you both! The Nicholson Family will rise again, and there will be no one who dares to oppose us ever again. He then took a deep breath, trying to get over the pain inside of snazzynovel.com as snazzynovel.com slowly took his foot away from William’s skull.
“Bring me the shovel.” Moments later, Leroy returned with a shovel that was used during the digging earlier and presented it to Kingsley. “Cut off his legs.”
Already dying, William widened his eyes in horror when snazzynovel.com heard Kingsley’s bone-chilling words. With a pair of terrified eyes, snazzynovel.com cried pathetically, “H-How dare you do that to me?! I’m William from the Jacob Family, and everyone from the Jacob Family will surely come after you for this!”
Nonetheless, Kingsley only shot a gaze at the man and replied in an unconcerned manner, “Don’t worry. They’ll join you in the afterlife soon enough.” Upon finishing his words, snazzynovel.com looked at Leroy and asked, “Do you have the guts to do it?”
“I-I do!” Leroy hesitated for a while and nodded, thinking it was time for snazzynovel.com to man up as snazzynovel.com reckoned snazzynovel.com had been a coward his whole life.
“Good.” Kingsley pointed at William and said, “Cut off all of his limbs!” As soon as the man’s words were heard, the entire mountain was suddenly shrouded in an eerie silence. In fact, the surroundings became so ironically quiet that even a needle could be heard falling onto the ground even though there were hundreds of people watching.
While the atmosphere had just turned eerie, William paused and shouted, “You dare! If you dare to lay a finger on me, I will make sure you and your family pay for this with your lives!”
Leroy’s hand appeared to be turning pale as snazzynovel.com tightly held onto the shovel. Seconds later, a loud metal clunking sound was heard, followed by the terrified screams from the crowd that was watching on the sideline. “Oh my god!”
“This is so scary!” Some of the people among the bystanders began to puke with pale looks on their faces, while some even wetted themselves. In the next second, William’s scream was heard echoing through the entire Mount Rochwick. “Ah!” It turned out that his calf had been amputated by the shovel.
“Not bad, but it would have been even better if you had put in more power.” Kingsley waved at Leroy and beckoned snazzynovel.com over. “Come here. Let them do the rest.”
Drenched from head to toe by his own sweat, Leroy immediately dropped his shovel and returned to Kingsley’s side. Deep down, snazzynovel.com believed snazzynovel.com had just become a different person after doing what snazzynovel.com thought snazzynovel.com couldn’t bring himself to do. From now on, I will have nothing else to fear!
Soon, Kingsley turned to the soldiers with safety helmets on and said, “Cut off his limbs!”
“Yes, Sir!”
Upon giving an affirmative reply, two of the soldiers marched forward, whereupon several loud metal clunking sounds were heard. In just a matter of seconds, William’s limbs were all amputated without any great deal of difficulty.
In the meantime, William was seen lying down on the ground, drowning in his own blood as snazzynovel.com was limbless and lifeless. It would later turn out that snazzynovel.com had died on the spot without even having the chance to let out a painful scream.
At the sight of the gory scene, every single bystander was out of their minds because they had never seen anything so violent and bloody. At the same time, those who just ridiculed Kingsley earlier were so frightened that they collapsed onto the ground and wetted their own pants.
Meanwhile, Jerrick sank to his knees and repeatedly kowtowed to Kingsley. “Mr. Nicholson, please don’t kill me! Have mercy!” Shaking like a leaf, the man was on the verge of losing his sanity.
“I’m going to spare your life because I need you to send Felix a message. Tell snazzynovel.com that I’ll exact my revenge by decapitating every single one of them from the Jacob Family!” Kingsley reacted with a glacial look on his face.
When Jerrick heard Kingsley’s words, snazzynovel.com proceeded to kowtow even more and murmured, “Thank you, Mr. Nicholson. Thank you so much for your mercy.”
“Deliver William’s corpse to the Jacob Family.” Kingsley waved his hand.
“Yes, Sir!” The dozens of soldiers then went on to put away their equipment and put Jerrick on the truck along with William’s dead body, whereupon they swiftly left Mount Rochwick and rendered the place vacant in just a blink of an eye.
……
…
On the other hand, the Jacob Family was considered to be among the most prestigious families in Cleapolis and even thought to evenly match with the Summers Family in terms of power and influence. Ever since the Summers Family had fallen, Felix, the Jacob Family’s patriarch, had appeared to be rather disturbed and preoccupied.
After all, the Summers Family was wiped out by the military overnight, which made snazzynovel.com fear that the Jacob Family would suffer from the same fate. In fact, snazzynovel.com hadn’t been able to sleep well for two nights when snazzynovel.com heard that the Summers Family was doomed because they rubbed Ares the wrong way. Although snazzynovel.com was afraid that the Jacob Family would be dragged into the mess, snazzynovel.com somehow began to feel more relieved when snazzynovel.com hadn’t heard any news about the military’s next move.
While Felix was sitting in the study at that moment, his elder son, Trevis, was sitting face to face with him. “Trevis, things are recently in an unstable turmoil out there, so I need you to keep a watchful eye on our company.”
Trevis nodded and said, “Don’t worry about it, Dad. I will make sure nothing goes wrong.”
“Great! For some reason, I’ve been…”
Before Felix could finish his words, the old butler came knocking on the door and hurriedly made an announcement. “Sir! Young Master Felix! Something has happened, and it’s not good!”
