Chapter 93: CHAPTER 92

The three men continued to plan their next steps with the goal of finishing off the Heavenly Palace and Candice. In the same way, they discussed what they could do with the old man since they were convinced that he had betrayed them, so they have to deal with him as well.On the other hand, the old man had arrived at his office and was sitting in the dark pensive. Tonight he had understood that Candice look at him not as an ally, but as a pawn, and that annoy him.

Despite his fear of Candice's power and influence, he was proud of himself, a bit rotten, but ultimately proud and he couldn't allow himself to be looked down on like that, so he was making plans to deal with her.

What he came up with was to bother the Heavenly Palace as well as the three former comrades of him, since he knew that Candice was interested in that establishment, he thought that the best way to hit her was by attacking the Heavenly Palace.

He also knew that his three companions would seek trouble with him since he knew them very well, so he had decided to deal with them in the same way. When he had all his thoughts clear he sighed and said quietly, "I really lost a lot today by siding with that bitch."

Unfortunately for him, the sentence that seemed to have not been heard by anyone was captured by a girl who was hiding in the shadows. She was the subordinate that Candice had sent to spy on him.

The night ended and Andrew and all the members of the Heavenly Palace had no idea what plans the three groups had. Carolina at this time had just entered one of the construction firms in the city.

It was not the largest or most reputable builder in the city, however, it exercised a good value for money for its services and that is why the remodeling request they had, had to be brought there.

Carolina discussed her request with the manager of the construction company, however, they did not close any deal at the moment, as the manager said that they must first see the property and discuss the work in detail in order to give a price.

The request seemed logical to Carolina and she discussed with the manager a date for that visit, which was scheduled for the morning of the following day. After some courtesies, Carolina said goodbye to the manager of the construction company and left.

She came with Oliver to the Heavenly Palace shortly before lunchtime. No incident had occurred and after notifying Andrew, she went back to her usual duties.

The rest of the day passed without problems. Andrew sent the goods to Johan as usual, and by nightfall, the Heavenly Palace conducted its business as normal.

While the ballrooms were at the height of enjoyment and pleasure, Andrew was alone in the office reviewing the renovations that he would discuss with the builder's staff the next day.

"Master, I have returned," Aki's voice came as she stepped out of the shadows. As Andrew could feel her closeness thanks to the master-slave contract, he was not surprised by her appearance, and putting aside the notes that he was reviewing, he asked, "What have you found?".

"I'm sorry to report that I haven't been able to find information on the captain of the beauty hunters," Aki said with little dissatisfaction. Andrew could tell that the girl felt bad for not having completed her task.

Despite everything Andrew did not criticize her. He knew that it wasn't that Aki's abilities were bad, the problem was that she lacked support. She was alone, she had no way to split up and gather information from different sources at the same time, and that made it difficult for her to do her job.

"Don't worry about it, Aki. You said you couldn't find information about the captain, what about the others?", Andrew said trying to comfort her a bit and Aki, recovering her momentum, replied, "Vice captains A, B, and C only follow orders from the captain, but apparently they are quite free at this time and act separately.

"Do you know about their activities?", Andrew asked again to which Aki nodded and began to explain, "The three of them operate in different areas on the periphery of the red light district. They each have different methods and personalities, and A is the one who operates in the region where the Heavenly Palace is located."

Andrew nodded his head indicating for her to continue and Aki continued by saying, "A is cruel and barbaric. He acts like a thug and kidnaps any woman that comes his way. He has a small tavern that he uses as his base of operations with about 25 men under his command, who are not much different from him".

"Do you know his combat strength?" Andrew continued to ask, and Aki instantly replied, "Yes, he is slightly more powerful than the Heavenly Palace guards. He's not remotely comparable to Oliver".

With Aki's answer, Andrew fell into contemplation and after a few seconds, he asked again, "Do you think you can kill him without leaving any clues?" A cold and murderous gleam appeared in Aki's eyes who resolutely said, "No problem".

Andrew smiled at Aki's response and with a cold look, but with a serious expression said, "Then go," and Aki disappeared into the shadows without saying a word.

Although Andrew was a bit puzzled by Aki's motivation to accomplish this task, he didn't worry. His thought was that if she was motivated it was good, in the end, he just needed to get rid of the one called A.

On the other hand, Aki was motivated simply because by investigating the so-called A, she knew of his atrocities. Being kidnapped and trained so cruelly, she sympathized with the victims that A had captured and wanted to eliminate him.

Aki moved with speed and stealth to the tavern that was A's base of operations and unnoticed by anyone entered it from the roof. In one of the rooms on the second floor, the man named A was raping two girls that his subordinates had brought, while he brutally beat them.

A, he was a crazy man. He was cruel and enjoyed torturing women, so he enjoyed beating them while he raped them. Although technically these women were merchandise for his gang, he always took one or two women from the kidnapped group to satisfy his sadistic desires.

Unfortunately for him, while he was drowning in the pleasure of torturing the girls, Aki hid in the shadows. When she saw the scene in front of her, her blood boiled with anger, but she somehow managed to calm down and not jump on the sadistic man right away.

She's an assassin, although her combat power isn't bad and even though she might be stronger than A, a direct fight would cause commotion and alert A's subordinates and she didn't want that situation.

For that reason, she waited. She endured her anger and impatience as she watched the man rape and beat the two girls until he was satisfied. The two girls who were severely beaten fell unconscious from the damage and pain. Only at that moment, did A stop bothering them.

What A enjoyed the most was seeing how the girls cried and writhed in pain, so when the girls fell unconscious or died on some occasions he lost interest in them.

Completely satisfied, A got out of bed and put on his clothes, and with a smirk walked to the bedroom door to leave, but as he placed his hand on the door handle he heard, "I hope you enjoyed your last night".

Despite reacting instantly to hearing the voice, Aki didn't give him time to defend himself. With determination, she plunged her dagger into A's throat, cutting the trachea and when she withdrew the weapon from him, his blood gushed from the deep wound.

Instinctively the man used his hand to prevent the blood from leaving his body but it was in vain. The wound was extensive and deep and by destroying his trachea, he couldn't even make a sound. He collapsed after a few seconds and lost his life.

Aki looked at A's lifeless body bathed in his own blood with a cold expression as if she wasn't even seeing a human, but after a few seconds, she looked away and looked at the two brutally beaten girls who were unconscious in bed.

She knew that, if she left them here when A's subordinates found their boss dead, they would suffer the same fate, but she also did not know how to save them, since she did not have the strength or skills to do it.

She burned her neurons for several minutes looking for a solution, but no idea came to her and although she was reluctant, she decided to leave them to their own fate. It wasn't until an hour later that A's subordinates found him dead and just as Aki had thought they blamed the women.

Ironically the two women had died shortly after Aki had left, as the beating they received had caused internal injuries and they had bled to death, so the men could not take revenge.

A's subordinates were as stupid as his boss, they never analyzed the situation, because if they had, they would notice that it was impossible for the two women to assassinate him.

This lack of intelligence on the part of A's men benefited Andrew since the captain of the beauty hunters was notified that A had neglected and was killed by the women he had as toys.

For this reason, the captain and the other two vice-captains did not investigate the matter much and remained unaware of the threat hanging over their heads.

Aki returned to the Heavenly Palace to report to Andrew that she had completed her mission and Andrew was happy with the news. He was so happy that he hugged Aki tightly and kissed her several times making the little girl blush like a beetroot.
