Chapter 136: A Grin
Kayla stared at Amon, slightly surprised by his words.A moment later, she chuckled and played along with his joke.
"I guess so."
The two watched Joy excuse herself and return to commanding the other Armed Forces personnel to clean up the blood and question the civilians nearby.
Meanwhile, Amon quietly excused himself.
"Let me cross-check the house to ensure everything is where it should be."
Hearing his words, Kayla nodded.
"Alright, stay safe," she said with a smile.
Amon nodded and walked away with measured steps, as though he were genuinely inspecting the house.
As soon as he slipped through the kitchen’s back door, he glanced around to ensure nobody was paying attention to his movements.
Afterward, he linked to the connection he shared with Moon and vanished from his spot.
He had specifically instructed Moon to leave Jethro alive so he could ask him a few questions. More specifically, he wanted to know who had targeted them this time.
He couldn’t let such a person walk free.
The wind rustled faintly as Amon’s figure faded away.
Inside the abandoned warehouse, the place the Butcher had previously used to change, the air rippled slightly and Amon appeared with a calm expression on his face.
For a brief moment, he was surprised by the sensation lingering on his body.
The teleportation felt magical.
One moment he was back at home.
The next, he was here.
A faint smile touched Amon’s lips.
It quickly disappeared.
His expression turned cold the moment his gaze landed on Jethro.
An intense killing intent erupted from him instantly, suffocating the atmosphere.
Amon reeked of bloodlust.
Jethro could tell that Amon wanted to kill him.
However, that wasn’t what caused his eyes to bulge.
"You! You-"
Jethro’s heart trembled with alarm as he stared at Amon.
"You’re an awakened!" Jethro finally spat, his eyes filled with disbelief and shock.
Who would have expected that the abandoned son of the Embermoon Family had secretly become such a terrifying awakened?
And he even seemed to be the master of the monster who had taken all of them down.
Jethro’s mouth hung open.
He tried to move.
He wanted to inform the Demon Infant Organization.
He had to inform them!
Unfortunately, his entire body had been deliberately incapacitated by Moon under Amon’s orders.
Amon finally closed the distance between them.
Bending down, he grabbed Jethro’s face and forced him to meet his gaze.
