Chapter 63: Infernal Vortex Class ? (4)
The moment the word ’father’ left Jade’s lips, silence followed. Silence as thick and suffocating as the dark smoke above, even amid the chaotic battlefield.
His team turned to him, their expressions ranging from shock to outright disbelief. But there was no time for questions or even explanations. Jade ignored the stares and focused on his father.
Sergio’s lips twisted into a cruel smirk.
"It already began, son. And I definitely won’t let you stop it," he warned before his expression turned vicious. He glanced at his minions and shouted, "Kill them all!"
At his command, his remaining forces lunged forward. Their killing intent increased, and their eyes changed as if they were being controlled. Jade knew the reason; thus, he shared it with his comrades as he moved out of the way since Claude and Lexie stepped forward.
"So, we shouldn’t kill them?" Lexie asked.
Jade shrugged his shoulders. Truthfully, he didn’t care about those minions’ lives. If it was up to him, he would not even bother to inform them, but he was aware that some of his team did not like killings, sinners or not.
"What’s the punishment for members of the evil UAO?" Jade asked instead.
"What do you mean by that?" Terrius came forward.
Jade pointed at his father standing behind his lackeys, next to him was Diego whose left hand was cut off, his blood soaking the cloth he wrapped on it.
"I just found out my father was one of the seven lords of that underworld organization. They were conducting forced awakenings to humans and forcing them to follow him in this new empire he’s building."
