The Demon’s Menu

He was not here for no reason.

Not only was he eliminating the ’eyes’ that might detect something amiss, but he also wanted to thoroughly understand everything about this mansion.

Including, but not limited to, the patrolling sentries, secret watchers, and any possible hidden rooms.

Although he had Brian’s investigation, Jason habitually wanted to check for himself.

Of course, being able to infiltrate the surveillance room directly, Brian’s information was indispensable.

It didn’t take long for Jason to confirm everything he needed to know.

The next moment, his tall figure vanished into the shadows of the corridor.

Then, the killing began.

One by one, the unsuspecting thugs were dragged into the shadows by hands that suddenly reached out for them.

Or the sound of a blade slicing through flesh.

These sounds arose one after another, unceasingly. Experience tales with

Though the thugs were fairly well-trained, they were nowhere near Jason’s level.

So, when they were under Jason’s gaze, their fate was already sealed.

Asa sat in the armchair, frowning slightly.

He felt that something was amiss.

But he couldn’t put his finger on what it was exactly.

"Is it because the next auction is about to start?"

Asa speculated on the possible reasons in his mind.

As Emod’s top lieutenant, Asa was well aware of the true purpose of this auction, to draw more people into his boss’s camp and then help his boss secure a seat in the council.

Once his boss entered the Cherry City council, their situation would undergo a dramatic transformation.

Their boss would become a real big shot.

And themselves?

Naturally, they would rise with the tide.

What was more important was that at that time, their boss would certainly not stint on rewards.

As Emod’s top lieutenant, he was bound to receive rewards beyond imagination, including money, power, women.

Asa, who came from a street gang, couldn’t help but get excited when he thought of the rewards he could get.

"I hope that day comes soon!"

Asa thought to himself, then stood up and walked toward the fridge.

He wanted to drink some water, to cool down a bit.

The fridge door opened silently, revealing a head wrapped in cling film inside, its features blurred by the bloodstained plastic, already indistinguishable.

Asa saw the head, but was unfazed.

Because he was the one who put it there.

An intruder among them, personally executed by his hand.

The identity of the intruder?

Besides being a snitch for Chief Davide, there couldn’t be another possibility.

The man had been keeping too close a watch on Asa recently.

However, Asa trusted that his boss would handle it appropriately.

So, that head would be shown to Emod.

Then, destroyed.

And the body?

Already fed to the dogs.

The ferocious, aggressive, warlike dogs that he had handpicked himself.

He savored that kind of scene.

Asa took a bottle of water from beside the fridge, twisted off the cap, and began gulping it down.

He nearly drained the 500ml bottle in one go.

The coolness swirled around his chest and stomach, quickly calming the irritation in his heart and chilling his brain, and then, he was struck with a realization.

He had finally noticed what was wrong!

Dog barking!

The seven ferocious dogs he had chosen hadn’t made a sound for over half an hour.

This was impossible!

Even if they were led by one of their own men, those dogs would occasionally growl fiercely, let alone at night, when tied up at entrances, garages, and other places.

They would bark at any passing vehicle.

And although their boss’s mansion was far from Cherry City’s downtown, it was by no means in the middle of nowhere.

On the contrary, this was an affluent area, certainly not lacking in vehicles and patrolling security guards.

The moment these people got close, those dogs would bark.

If they didn’t bark...

There was only one possibility!

Thinking this, Asa immediately pulled out a gun and turned toward a wall.

There was a backup set of surveillance equipment.

One set was in the surveillance room.

The other was in his own room.

Compared to the former, the latter had a wider and more detailed monitoring range.

Including but not limited to the thugs’ rooms.

As Emod’s most trusted lieutenant, Asa had this special privilege.

Click!

The wall slowly rose, revealing a bank of surveillance monitors.

When Asa saw what was on the screens, his pupils shrank.

Bodies!

He saw the bodies of his subordinates!

Not just one or two!

But the majority!

He couldn’t find the rest, but Asa knew what had happened to them.

Without any hesitation, Asa picked up the phone.

He had to call his boss.

But at that moment, a tall figure wearing a mask pushed open the door to his room.

Bang, bang bang!

Asa pulled the trigger without a second thought.

Gunfire erupted, and casings clinked as they hit the floor.

But that tall, masked figure didn’t even try to dodge; the bullets struck him squarely but...

Sparks flew everywhere!

Bullets ricocheted!

Asa’s eyes involuntarily widened.

He was about to pull the trigger again, but the masked figure gave him no chance.

One moment at the door,

The next right in front of him.

Under the light, the hockey mask radiated a strange glow, growing more savage and terrifying, and when that broad-bladed, short-handled axe was raised...

The cold gleam of the blade enshrouded Asa.
