Chapter 421 - Errand Boy

Jo was boiling in anger. He was so annoyed with himself. He realized that even though the girl was being distant towards him, he should have instead and stuck with her. Now, he doesn't even know where she went and who knows what danger she is in. 

"Tell me, where did she go?" Jo walked in on them like a big furiouses beast about to devour his prey. 

"We don't know where she is."

"We-we only found out she was missing." 

Both of them were trembling in fear. The maid who was in tears earlier could even shed another for she was dead pale and frightened at the sight of the young man suddenly changing into a demonic person. 

Jo's expression was so frightening, his eyes were filled with anger and cold-blood. As if the grim reaper was standing in front of them holding onto his bloody and sharp scythe.

"Let me ask you once again, where is she? Weren't you supposed to be following her?" 

Indeed they were supposed to be following her. But they were so busy gossiping earlier with the others that they weren't able to catch up with their task and follow the girl. 

"Idiots! What were you doing anyways!" He roared like a fierce lion. So furious at them for losing one of his. 

They were so frightened of what's to come that one of the maids screamed and ran for her life. The other maid was left dumbfounded on the ground.

She looked at her friend's runway without even looking back at her. Her mind was all muddled up as her emotions got the better of her. 'What is going on? Why? Why are they doing all of this for such a simple girl? A-all I wanted was a simple job in which I can survive yet now... Not only am I being dragged into this death war hut joe I'll be killed because I couldn't watch a grown woman. Have they all lost their mind.'

"Please spare me. I swear I don't know where she went. It was her who thought about the secret passage, maybe she knows where it is." She spoke as she shakily pointed at the direction where her friend ran off.

"Ha- do you think I'm stupid. Of course you stupid friend does not know where it is. If any of you knew where it is, you'll all panic by now." 

What did he mean by that? Why would they panic if they knew the secret passage? 

All of the sudden, a very loud explosion occurred alarming everyone in the mansion. 

The maid who was left in the room with Jo turned pale. She now realizes what he means. If they knew the passage they would have fought for it and left already. Who would wish to go to such a gruesome battle? Who would want to spare their own life for their master? 

"Please, I swear, I don't know anything. You can even ask the master." She cried and begged for her life. Seeing how frightening Jo was already, she already expects that he'll be the one to end her life, not her master. 

"What's going on here?" 

The maid lit up in delight hearing the familiar voice. As she looked up, she saw her friend amongst a couple of leaders and their master. 

"What is the meaning of this? Not only are you and that woman causing such ruckus, you even dare harm one of our own." 

"How bold of you both cause such ruckus in our territory. Who do you think you are brat to act so arrogant in front of us?" 

The group leaders all vent out their anger to Jo. They were dismissed earlier by the master when he secretly discussed something with her. They felt uneasy about it and bothered. 

"I've allowed you both to destroy the mansion but I won't allow you to hurt anyone in this mansion." The woman coldly said to Jo.

"Tell me, what did that little b*tch tell you?" 

The woman was startled by how Jo acted towards her. His manner and aura were all so different. He was just a small errand boy yet why does he give off such frightening feelings. 

"Brat, how dare you look at our leader that way." 

"You arrogant b*stard!"

One of the group leader went and charge towards Jo, but before his fist could even land on Jo. Jo has already landed a strong kick on him causing him to fly back and crash to the wall. 

In front of everyone's eyes, they saw one of the group leaders fly back like a piece of a ball. Jo kicked him away as if he was nothing. 

"Little b*tch, tell.me what you told them?" He spoke once again with the same cold and eerie tone. 

The little maid looked to face Jo, seeing the young man in front of her. She collapsed on the ground as if she was seeing her own death in his eyes. She cried her eyes out as she revealed and answered him. "Master forgive us, we-we lost the girl. We-we don't know we-where she is. I-I…" 

Before she could even finish speaking, the woman grabbed the little girl and pulled her like she weighed like a feather. "What did you say?" 

"Ma-master?" The little maid did not expect such a reaction. She looked at their calm.master who has tolerated all the girl's mischievous acts. Yet, why is their master showing such indifference towards them who has served her for years. 

"Where is she?" The woman repeated the same question. Even the group leaders did not interrupt, for they now understand why the young man turned so cold. 

"Ha- so dramatic…" 

Everyone was already tense when the young man unexpectedly spoke. His words sound unfitting for the situation and his manners were just disrespectful. 

"Such a powerful clan yet they can't take care of a little girl. You idiots!" 

The woman frowned and was annoyed by Jo's words. The young man went to see her earlier and warned her about Elizabeth's strange attitude. He explained to her that she seems to be looking for something. She did not expect it to be her way out. She thought maybe it has something to do with her memory. Now, due to her carelessness, she has put everyone's lives in danger and has lost the most important person she needed to protect. 

"How dare you!"

"Brat, who do you think you are? Have you forgotten where you're currently standing?" 

"Now that the little miss is gone, do you think you still stand a chance to be talking so arrogantly in front of us?" 

Jo couldn't care less of what they have to say. He has better things to do than quarrel with idiots who can't take care of a simple girl. He was to relax too and thought everything would be fine. His biggest mistake was trusting them to handle the situation seeing they knew the girl better than him. 

"Where do you think you're going?" 

"You brat, how dare you turn you back on us?" 

Jo couldn't heading to the door which infrustrate the group leader. Seeing how arrogant he was, they all charged at him. The woman did not interfere since Jo has gone overboard and have disrespected them. She waited patiently and calmly for what's to come. 

"Come here you brat!"

"I'll teach you some manners!"

Each one of them went in with their fist directly at Jo. But to their surprise…

POW

BANG

KA-BOOM

In a blink of an eye, they all went flying and crashing to the fall. Jo did not stop and even went after them. Since they charged first and asked for it, he decided to let loose some steam. He was angry and needed to cool off. 

The sound of someone's bones breaking and blood spilling every was the only sound they could hear. The two maids were all terrified of what they were seeing. They rather wish they were killed than go through such torturious and agonising death. 

As Jo took on the last man standing, he grabbed him by the collar and said, "Next time you wish to teach someone a lesson. Hmm, make sure you have the skills to teach them and not the other way around."

"You!" The woman growled in anger as she stared violently at Jo. If his strongest men were taken down by just a kid, who was she to stand a chance against him. 

To teach them a lesson, Jo looked the man directly at the eye and as if it was his late time seeing his face. He smiled at him like a devil and in seconds… He took the man's life by twisting its neck until it cracked causing his death. 

Ahhh! 

Both the young maid screamed, but soon one's voice disappeared. 

"Ma-master?" She looked up at her master who was pointing a gun at her. "I-"

"You're too noisy." 

BANG 

Jo looked at the woman with no care, he couldn't care less for their lives. If it was him, he would have done the same thing since they failed to do what they were told.
