Knock, knock!

There was a knock on the door.

"It's supposed to be a doctor!"

With that, Esther walked towards the door, but his hand was on the handle of the gun hidden in his clothes.

He had already called, and if it was an ambulance, there would naturally be that unique blue flash and sound, but at this time, not only did there be no flash or sound, but it was silent.

This house was secretly rented by him.

The average person doesn't come.

The people who came were naturally not ordinary.

Arras's nose twitched, and after a few sniffs, he didn't look at the door again, but looked intently at the table.

Avant didn't move.

Danvers didn't notice any difference, but Patsy pulled Danvers behind him, and then he stood next to Emma, who was in a feverish coma.

Patcy saw something different.

Her heart couldn't help but rise.

However, Patsy, who immediately thought of something, looked at Arras and Avante.

When he saw that the two of them looked indifferent and didn't move, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Facing Danvers's puzzled gaze, he shook his head with a smile.

These preoccupied Esther did not find out.

He's glued to the door right now!

He was telling himself that as the only young, strong man in the room, he had to protect the old and weak women and children behind him.

This is also what Aitdemont's predecessors told him.

Men, you can cry, you can cry, you can kneel.

But when your family and friends need you, even if you are afraid, even if you are trembling, you must stand up with tears!

Because, once something is lost.

Even if you are alive, it is almost the same as dead.

That kind of life is not a long life!

Esther stood firm in her convictions, took a deep breath, and opened the door.

Outside the door, a group of people wearing bulletproof vests and helmets, armed with automatic weapons, stood neatly and solemnly.

When they saw Esther who opened the door, everyone saluted in unison.

"Deputy Leader!"

"The pest that infiltrated Aung Thanh has been found."

"Horda the mercenary, Creek the journalist, Will the tourist, and that Simon."

The one in the lead of them pointed behind him.

Four sacks are right behind him.

Esther was stunned.

Deputy Chief?

Hydra!

Almost instantly, Esther reacted.

The person in front of him should be the member of the 'Hydra' that Arras invited to join.

I didn't expect Arras to have such a reliable and energetic friend.

He could see that these people were well-armed and disciplined, and the details were not something that ordinary forces could have.

It would be nice if there were more of these people on board!

In this way, 'Hydra' will be able to become a real 'Hydra'!

Unconsciously, Esther thought.

However, on the surface, he replied quietly.

"Interrogate everything, leave it to me."

"Yes, Deputy Chief."

"Long live the hydra!"

After the captain of the action team in front of him responded respectfully, with a low slogan, he led a team of people to carry the sack and disappeared into the night, Esther watched these people disappear, and his eyes flashed with sighs again.

What a nice soldier!

It's a pity that there are too few people!

Esther, who let out such an exclamation, did not see that after the group disappeared into the darkness, more action teams in similar costumes appeared, and they took the house as the center of the circle, and lurked around one by one.

A well-dressed middle-aged man sits in a modified car on the corner of the street, with a map in front of him.

This map details everything within 5 kilometers of Esther's rented apartment.

"Lord 'Talon 13', the Judge Chief, the Deputy Leader, the Boss, and a few ladies and young masters are all here."

"The level of security is not enough!"

"Buy it all and replace it with our people."

"Then, dig an underground shelter and go to our original base."

The other party pointed to the map and said indifferently.

"Yes, sir."

The secretary nodded, and then asked softly, "The 'Holy Snake Society' is not far from here...... Aren't we? ”

"'The Holy Serpent'?"

"Don't bother for the time being, Lord 'Talon 13' and that Kuya lady seem to be ...... Well, please ask the deputy leader later, that's not what we should be concerned about! ”

The middle-aged man said.

"Yes, sir."

The secretary bowed and left.

The well-dressed middle-aged man thought for a moment before the phone rang.

Looking at the number on it, the middle-aged man immediately picked up the phone respectfully.

"Well, I've rescheduled."

"I understand, it will definitely not disturb the lives of adults."

The well-dressed middle-aged man assured.

This is followed by a more detailed security plan.

Jason, who was standing in the shadows outside the car, had a look of surprise on his face.

The friends of Arras have so much energy?

The friends made by the fist, so reliable?

No!

Not reliable!

It's a die-hard loyalist!

That appearance is definitely not a disguise.

Jason believed that Arras did not have such ability, and if he had, he would not have relied on bounty hunters to live, and would have become the de facto ruler of Aung Cheng long ago.

Not Arras, but originally from Aracea......

Is Arras's mother?

Or that grandfather of Arras?

Jason thought unconsciously.

With the abilities of Arras's mother and maternal grandfather, it is not difficult to run such a force.

And this is also reasonable, whose parents and elders will really rest assured that their children will be thrown in a city like this, and there will inevitably be one or two followers.

"I see."

Jason nodded thoughtfully.

These forces, which were left behind by Anas's mother and grandfather, only joined in after the so-called 'Hydra' appeared, moving from darkness to light, and continued to protect Arras.

Knowing everything, Jason hid his figure and returned to the apartment without a sound.

Knock, knock.

"It's me."

Jason raised his hand and knocked on the door, and declared himself.

The moment Jason stepped out of the shadows, Avant raised his eyebrows, his eyes were displeased, and when Jason knocked on the door, Avante's face softened slightly.

Then, in front of everyone, he opened the door.

Instead of letting Jason in, he walked out of the room and closed the door.

"Talk to me."

Avant said.

"Okay."

Jason nodded quietly, but he was very vigilant in his heart.

Avante was fooled and lame.

But that doesn't mean he's completely at ease.

The two walked to the lawn in front of the house, and Avant stopped, and Jason stopped, but did not speak, but waited quietly for Avant to speak.

"I hate you."

Avant spoke very bluntly.

Then, without waiting for Jason to speak, he began to speak.

"Don't trust anyone."

"Be vigilant and spy on your own people."

"I know this is what you were taught to do as a child, but by doing so, you are likely to hurt the people who really care about you—they are here because of loyalty, because of their mission, because of their honor."

"Your suspicion will leave them feeling puzzled and humiliated."

Avant raised his hand and pointed to the modified car in the distance.

Then, turning his head to stare at Jason.

Even if Jason covered it up, he was still seen by Avante.

"Again, it's like looking at a fool."

"That's right!"

"A cold and ruthless guy like you must have taken me for a fool."

"Because, you will never understand what the warmth of home is."

Avant continued.

Call!

Speaking of this, Avant took a deep breath.

He looked at Jason with pity, as if he were looking at a poor man.

The tone is also no longer intense, but softer.

"However, you are not wrong, it is the world that is wrong."

As he spoke, Avant turned and walked to the door.

But before entering the room, Avant was stunned.

"Learn the sword with me tomorrow."

With that, Avant pushed the door open.

Looking at the open door, the light in the house.

is obviously a warm appearance, but Jason's heart is a desire not to vomit and be unhappy.

Did Avant just treat me as an emotionless, autistic, member of an organization?

And he, as an elder, is ready to use 'family affection' to relieve me?

Are you going to teach me swordsmanship?

Esther, you really are talented.

The world is wonderful because of you!

Standing outside for more than ten seconds, Jason waited for his heart to calm down before entering the house.

Looking at Jason, who walked in with a cold face, Avant nodded as a greeting.

But in the bottom of his heart, Avante lamented that he had a long way to go.

Just now, when Emma was unconscious, some memory fragments appeared in Avante's mind.

It was a fragment of his memory that had been ambushed by the Templar because of the so-called Holy Sword, in which many of his friends had died trying to save him.

The real high-end combat power of the 'Night Stalker Court' was almost lost in that battle, and only a few old friends were left.

It can be said that the 'Night Stalker Court' at this moment is an empty shell.

It was because of him, his friends who had left Ang City, that the contract had weakened too much, so that the 'Temple' would succeed.

Even, Avant was already guessing that the original target of the 'Temple' was not him, but the entire 'Night Stalker Court', otherwise, it would not have been so targeted.

This made Avant feel more and more remorseful in his heart.

At the same time, it also made him more and more ashamed.

The 'Night Stalker Court' with only one empty shell left is not the real 'Night Stalker Court', and he needs to get the 'Night Stalker Court' back to its peak.

Otherwise, when he dies, how will he go to meet the old friends who died to save him?

Therefore, he needs to teach Jason.

The only claw that this 'Night Stalker' can handle.

Although he received a cruel education, Avant was sure to use his affection to make the other party understand that cruelty was not the only way to survive.

It's just that...... I wonder how this guy's swordsmanship talent is?

Judging from the strength of the other party, it shouldn't be bad.

What's more, he is a sword master, no matter how bad it is, he has a way to teach.

Avant thought confidently.

Jason didn't look at Avant again as he entered the room.

He was worried that he couldn't help but show some kind of inappropriate expression.

His gaze was on Emma, who was unconscious.

"How is she?"

Jason asked.

"Still feverish."

Patsy, who had been looking at Emma, said.

Jason frowned, he couldn't help with such a thing, he would just simply cool down physically, and more would need professionals.

However, as if sensing Jason's approach, the unconscious Emma trembled slightly again.

The crowd that had been watching Emma immediately noticed this scene.

Is it because Jason's breath scares Emma?

Everyone couldn't help but think.

"Mistress Jason, you ......"

Esther gestured with a wry smile.

"Hmm."

"I hate kids."

With such words, Jason walked to the corner of the house.

As Jason moved away, Emma immediately stopped trembling, which made everyone in the room immediately confirm their previous suspicions.

"You're going to need more subtle astringent techniques."

"Don't worry."

"I'll teach you when I learn the sword."

Avant walked over and looked like an elder to explain Jason.

"Hmm."

Jason didn't know what to say except nod.

Thankfully, soon, ambulances and doctors appeared.

There was more than one ambulance, doctors and nurses appeared in teams, and all kinds of dazzling medical equipment quickly piled up throughout the room.

"Ambulance care is so perfect now?"

Danvers blinked, confused.

Patsy smiled and pointed at Jason, Aras, and Avante.

She didn't know what was going on, but he must have something to do with one of the three.

Not only did Patcy think so, but so did Esther, especially when he quietly asked Jason and got some cryptic answers, and he looked at Arras differently.

The fear is still there.

However, at this time, there was a sense of awe.

Sure enough, it is worthy of the family that once failed my father!

Esther thought silently.

Then, I just watched many doctors and nurses busy in front of me.

"How's that going, doctor?"

When the doctor and nurse stopped, Esther walked over and asked.

"After the detection of the instrument, Miss Emma has an ordinary fever and a little malnutrition."

"I promise she'll get better soon."

The doctor, who seemed to be the leader, gave a kind reassurance.

Then, taking a step closer and, in a voice that only the two of them could hear, he continued, "Deputy Chief, Miss Emma is fine, I assure you. ”

With that, the doctor took a step back with a smile on his face.

"That's good."

Esther nodded, without any surprise on her face.

Instead, there is a kind of naturalness.

If the adaptability is also 'abnormal', then Esther must be T-level.

He's used to what he's been like as the deputy leader of Hydra now.

Or more accurately, he already thinks of himself as the deputy leader of Hydra.

"Leave someone reliable to look after Emma."

Esther commanded.

"Yes, Deputy Chief."

The doctor replied in a low voice, and immediately arranged it.

Looking at Emma, who was breathing steadily, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, especially Logan and Kratos let go of their little faces that had been tense.

"It's a bit of a stretch to say that, but it's time for dinner."

Patsy said.

As an adult, it may be okay to be hungry, but two children are not.

She touched the top of the two children's heads.

"Don't worry, everything will be fine."

Esther on the side was even more open.

"Come, come, eat."

But at this time, Jason was walking out.

"Lord Jason, aren't you eating?"

Esther was stunned.

"I'm full."

With these words, Jason disappeared behind the door without stopping.

Avant sighed as he looked at the closed door.

Still out of place, take your time.

Everything will be fine.

I'll get you back on the right track!

At this moment, 'Juggernaut' Avant is full of confidence!

He believes that as long as he can make Jason feel the presence of 'family', everything will be fine.

Because, that's-

The most important thing in the world.
