Chapter 8: The God of War

Ryan straightforwardly said, "You're clearly just a mama's boy, Igor Suhov. How could you destroy my base alone? Of course you must have someone else's help."

Hearing Ryan's words, Igor didn't take the bait and said with a laugh, "Haha, Nergal, do you think I have such shallow thoughts? Of course I know that I can't match you whether you are in your current state or in your prime. Therefore, I am waiting for your weakest moment like this and bring another great power to finish you off!"

After saying that, two people appeared behind Igor. Their presence was oddly familiar to Ryan. It could be said that in the last few years, Ryan had considered them brothers. What confused Ryan was why they could come this quickly to the city of Avalerion? Didn't they just destroy their headquarters outside the country?

"Little Tiger and Eclipse, how dare you challenge me?"

Ryan shook his head upon their arrival. Even though he was disappointed that his closest ones backstabbed him, he still felt guilty towards Yasmin.

Initially, Ryan was the one who matched Yasmin with Tiger. Now Tiger even betrayed him and left Yasmin alone. Ryan was worried that Yasmin would feel guilty for not being able to see her husband's true intentions.

"Don't be too tense like that, soon you will be able to rest in peace in that nature." The Eclipse said.

The tiger seemed silent. He only glanced sharply at his former boss and his 'brother'. Maybe because they had lived a life and death situation together after all these years, Tiger still couldn't forget all of it and tried to make up his mind.

"HA HA! Cowards like you can never kill me." Ryan laughed at their face and gave the three of them a thumbs up. Foolish! These three people were completely oblivious to their position.

Hearing Ryan's taunts, Eclipse got emotional. His body trembled and he started to emit a grim killer aura.

"Okay, let's see how great you are…"

After saying that, the Eclipse immediately shot out into a shadow. He got the name because he was able to blend into the darkness of the night thanks to a speed that the naked eye could not follow. Ordinary people could only see the gleam of the knife that had slashed through their necks.

The power of the 15th rank of the Gods list is no joke. Of course, such a reputation was accompanied by adequate capabilities. However, the opponent this time was the God of War Nergal.

"Hmmm you can too." Ryan, who saw the Eclipse moving quickly, immediately analyzed his enemy's movements. Even if the enemy was fast, would it make him tremble with fear?

Ryan stretched out his arm and a knife came out of his hand.

......

Jleb!

There was the sound of a knife pierced through somebody's flesh.

In the middle of the air, a male figure appeared about to fall to the ground, a knife was stuck at the person's chest.

Just one hit… One hit and one of the Gods' members had just died. He had died horribly from Ryan's effortless attack. Igor and Tiger were completely dumbfounded. The information they received should say that Ryan was at his weakest. How could their comrade die in just one hit?

Ryan looked fierce and his eyes emitted a powerful murderous aura. To be honest, he was holding himself back from vomiting blood. Before this attack, he knew that his strength had almost reached its threshold so he needed to solve this problem in one strike. He also hoped that losing The Eclipse would make his enemies lose their will to fight.

Even though The Eclipse's attack was extremely fast, the power contained within it wasn't very strong so he relied on its acceleration to create momentum. But all of that would be helpless when faced with an attack that was faster than him. And just like that, Ryan's faster attack had stabbed him right in the chest.

Though he'd managed to kill the Eclipse, Ryan still couldn't relax. This sense of caution didn't come from Igor or Tiger but a figure hiding in the shadows. Therefore, he shouldn't look weak and keep on putting on a fierce face, "You know that? Come on, I'll kill you two."

Ryan had to take advantage of both of their fears to avoid unnecessary fights. And sure enough, both Igor and Tiger's bodies trembled when Ryan challenged him.

Igor's fear made his legs weak and unable to move. However, he was even more afraid that if he ran and turned his back on Ryan, a knife would fly towards him and strike him in the back. The tiger even looked like a fool. He felt that he was really stupid because he could not realize Ryan's strength even though he had been with her for so many years.

One hit and Eclipse died!

Even if The Tiger was a little stronger than the Eclipse, he still lost to him in terms of speed. Ryan was injured and not at his peak, but he could still kill Eclipse with ease. Was the information in his possession wrong?

Only now did Tiger understand that Nergal's nickname was not just a figment.

"Stop!" At this moment, there was a cry from a cold voice.

Did the third party finally make their move?

Hearing this made Igor Suhov aware of his fear. Hearing that there were dozens of footsteps, he immediately retreated with the Tiger. They escaped from the scene and disappeared to thin air. They could do it since people standing atop the martial arts world could run without leaving any traces behind. If they decide to run, the success of capturing these people was very low.

Ryan didn't bother trying to catch up with them. He was still in an alert state when he turned towards the voice.

A woman in black clothes immediately appeared in line of sight. Even though it was shrouded in darkness by night, the beauty of this woman's body could not be hidden. Unfortunately, her face cannot be seen clearly.

Ryan still put up his fighting stance. He had the feeling that this girl was more troublesome than his previous enemy.

"Mr. Nergal, why are you provoking a fuss? Did you come to Crimea to cause trouble or to stay here?" The woman began to speak.

"Haha .. I didn't mean it like that. I just want to find a wife in Crimea because I heard there are many beautiful women here." Ryan said.

Ryan felt that his opponent's intentions weren't bad so he immediately relaxed his strength. He also answered the question casually. Ryan had lived through many life and death situations, so he knew which was dangerous and which was not. This time, the other party just wanted to get some information from him.

"Oh? Is that true? I am worried that Crimean women like gentle and kind men. So I think they'll like you less." The woman's tone was cold, making Ryan a little unhappy with her.

"Okay? Why isn't what I met like that huh? Don't they like handsome and energetic guys like me? When I first arrived in this country, I was disguised as a chicken noodle seller and do you know what happened? Beautiful girl approached me and asked me to marry her. Are you crazy? She is truly the most beautiful woman I have ever met. Her name is Irina Hagrim, have you ever heard of her name? We even have our marriage certificate. As for what you say about Crimean women liking gentle men, I don't think that's true. At least my wife isn't like that. She likes strong men who can protect her and play all night. Of course before this I've made her understand what manhood's like and was resting due to fatigue."

The woman silently clicked her tongue, 'Handsome and energetic? A bastard like you is handsome?' Then she continued, "I don't need your bragging about your honeymoon. I just wanted to warn you that this is Crimea. As long as you are here, you will obey the law. If you dare to violate, I will destroy you myself!"

This woman sounded like an angry person. Could Ryan's actions have disturbed her?
