Chapter 283: Compensation

Chapter 283: Compensation

The monitor flashed with several images, each one enough to send a shiver down their spines.

In the Federation monitoring department, an image of Leon's profile sparked panic.

Agents and analysts rushed to their stations, their faces filled with worry as they watched the unfolding situation.

Tension filled the air as word spread about Leon's movements.

Codenamed as the Demon, the Federation kept a close eye on him to prepare for any potential threats.

As per the higher-ups, this guy might be anyone anywhere if pissed.

And he was heading towards Frost Heaven all alone which meant something bad was about to happen.

Whispers of fear circulated among the staff.

"Leon's going to Frost Heaven? What's he up to?"

"I'm not sure, but it can't be good. Remember those mysterious disappearances of criminals? He might be behind them."

The tension grew with each passing moment, weighing heavily on everyone's minds.

"He wouldn't go there without a reason. Something's fishy."

"Maybe he's after someone or something specific in Frost Heaven."

"I dread to think what chaos he could cause in such a peaceful place."

Their superiors intervened, cursing aloud.

"Stop gossiping as if watching a movie."

"Stop wasting time! Sound the alarm!"Updated from n0v3lb(i)n.c(o)/m

"Inform all members and alert the President and Vice Presidents."

.......

The tension in the room was palpable as the old man's gaze bore into the white-haired lady with intense hatred.

"You remained silent when the engagement fell apart and everything descended into chaos. But now you demand compensation that is beyond our means... This is outrageous," he shouted, clenching his fist as his eyes glared venomously at the woman.

'Damn! Everyone believed she was dead, so how did she appear here?'

''Hehe!''

"Raven, you condemn us as outrageous when you've created a mess for my son, who bore everything and took the bullet for your girl."

"Moreover..." She paused and flicked her finger.

SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!

The dark space around them flickered, and soon several screens lit up in the air.

Raven was perceptive enough to realize that this woman's appearance was still young.

"My poor boy..." Lia sniffed and wiped away tears.

Raven's jaw almost dropped to the floor in shock and bafflement.

'Feeble boy... Dementia... Amnesia... Just how the hell are you kidding... At least say something that makes some sense. Do you think I don't know that sinister bastard? His smile always gives me goosebumps.'

Raven gritted his teeth until his gums bled.

The members of the Federation didn't intend to let Leon off, but at the end of the meeting, he threatened them with evidence of their crimes and said that if anyone dared to raise their voice, he would release everything to the public.

So, in the end, both sides made concessions.

"So I need something to compensate and free his mind from trouble."

Raven cursed Leon inwardly while his body became sweaty.

It wasn't a negotiation to begin with.

It was simply a threat.

A threat to either hand over the thing or she would make a move. Raven didn't dare think of confronting her.

Massaging his forehead, Raven fell into deep thoughts of agony.

"There are several relics and artifacts, but for them, it wasn't much, however..."

The thing she asked for was a rock that dropped from a dimensional crack when it first opened. Small yet unmeltable, even by the strongest strike.

Pondering, he sighed.

"Okay..."

CLAP!

"Congratulations, you made a good decision," Lia muttered as she got up from her seat, her image blurring.

"Deliver it within a week, and as for your grandson-in-law, I don't think he will survive long."

Her parting words echoed in the space.

"It's better if he just dies," Raven spoke with frustration. If not for his granddaughter, he would have kicked him out.

"Don't kill him. He will be quite useful. Just send him to that place.He will be a scapegoat goat.

"Huh!"

Raven's lips trembled as he heard Lia's plan and swallowed hard.

He had hardly reacted when he received a message on his smartwatch from the Federation.

"Damn! Who the hell provoked that Devil now!"
