The subordinate of the senior disciple paced back and forth in his office, a look of worry etched on his face. He had just received the news that the assassination attempt on Orion had failed. The target was stronger than they had anticipated, and the assassins were unable to get close enough to deliver the killing blow.
He knew what this meant - the Blood Clan would be demanding more money to complete the mission. Ten times the original amount, to be exact. It was an exorbitant sum, and he knew that they would struggle to come up with the funds.
He picked up his phone and dialled the number of his boss, the senior disciple. "Boss, the assassins from the Blood Clan have failed to kill Orion," he said, his voice low and tense.
There was a long pause on the other end of the line before the senior disciple spoke. "What do you mean they failed?" he asked, his voice rising in anger.
"The target was stronger than we anticipated. The assassins couldn't get close enough to deliver the killing blow," the subordinate explained.
There was another pause, and the senior disciple let out a deep sigh. "I see," he said. "And now the Blood Clan wants more money?"
"Yes, ten times the original amount," the subordinate replied, his heart sinking at the thought of the enormous sum.
The senior disciple was silent for a moment, and the subordinate could hear him thinking on the other end of the line. Finally, he spoke again. "We can't afford to pay that much. We'll have to cancel the mission."
The subordinate felt a sense of relief wash over him at the thought of not having to come up with such a large sum of money.
But his relief was short-lived as the senior disciple continued, "But I can't let this go. Orion has humiliated me in the past. I need to kill him myself."
The subordinate's eyes widened in shock. He had never seen his boss so angry and determined before. "Boss, are you sure that's a good idea?" he asked, his voice shaking slightly.
The senior disciple's voice was cold and measured as he replied, "I have no choice. If I don't do it myself, I'll lose face. And besides, it's personal now."
The subordinate knew better than to argue with his boss when he was in this kind of mood. "What do you need me to do?" he asked, resigned to the fact that he would have to assist in some way.
The senior disciple thought for a moment before responding, "Spread the news that I challenge him to a duel to the death."
The subordinate hesitated, unsure if this was a wise course of action. "Boss, this could escalate things even further. Are you sure it's worth it?"
The senior disciple's tone turned icy. "Do not question my decisions. Just do as I say."
The subordinate knew he had to obey, but he couldn't shake the feeling that this was a dangerous move. He hung up the phone and began to make preparations for spreading the news of the challenge.
