A New Path - Chapter 194

“BRADLEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! I COMMAND YOU TO TURN THAT SWORD ON AMELL!” Spandam stood against the wall while still screaming and yelling out orders like he was still in command of this situation. Bradley looked upon him with pity. “How the government has fallen. This is what happens when any random street trash gets placed in a position of power.” He vanished from his spot and appeared in front of Spandam. “Find peace of mind in the Underworld.” Bradley raised his fist and drove it through his chest, causing his entire upper body to explode like a human flesh bomb.

“You stole my kill, Bradley!” Lubbock spoke with near to no emotion. True to his nickname as a slaughterer, all of this killing barely made him flinch. Robin, however, had already closed her eyes to all of this. “Is it over?” She asked with closed eyes.

“Yes, dear granddaughter. You can look!”Amell evaporated all the blood covering the floor and he disposed of the bodies as well.

“That was scary, Uncle Bradley!” Robin let go of her arrogant attitude at last. Now that Amell had arrived, she could finally revert to the good girl she was at heart. “What about them?” The agents of CP9 felt their blood freeze when essentially Robin asked her grandfather how to get rid of them. Kalifa remembered what Robin said on the journey over here. That she would be the one to beg her for forgiveness before the day was over.

“Rob Lucci, come at me! Attack as you please as there is no way for you all to walk out of this alive with the information you now know.” Amell placed his hands behind his back again and started walking toward the agents. “If you do not attack me you are going to die a coward, is that how you want to die?” His words caused seeds of spite to grow inside the more emotional agents. Agent Jabra, this group’s loud mouth finally moved. But, not against Amell. He flashed over to Robin and grabbed her by the throat. Or, he almost succeeded in that. In her place, Amell had appeared, and what Jabra managed to grip was Amell’s wrist.

“Coward, I see you chose your death.” Amell used his right hand and pierced Jabra’s chest. “I-Impossible!” Jabra mumbled as he fell down on the ground in a pool of his own blood.

“Who’s next?” Amell looked over at the other agents. Robin who originally stood in this place now stood behind Bradley. None of the agents even saw Amell move. They couldn’t even comprehend how someone could be that fast.

“Amell! I have a request, will you listen to me, please!” Kalifa stepped forward slowly. She was among the agents that still held plenty of emotions inside of her, and she didn’t wanna die here. So, she would risk it all this time and see where it got her. Lucci just stood there, not moving, nor saying anything.

“I have never denied anyone their last words. What have you got to say to me?” Amell towered over her in height so the closer he got to her, the scarier his image became.

“I don’t want to die! I will banish myself from the world government and I will never speak a word of what took place here. Please, let me live!” She stood with her head slightly tilted downwards, but her voice never wavered. She was determined to live and to do that she was willing to beg for forgiveness as Robin had said she would.

Amell smiled and intentionally held back his answer a few seconds to see how the stress and fright almost made this female agent shake in frustration. “I commend your bravery of asking me such a thing. But, you do understand my scepticism when it comes to believing the words of someone trained by the CP9 since childhood.” Amell’s words tensed up her body further.

“I-I promise, I would never betray that promise. Even if I die, I would not speak of this day to anyone!”

“Alright, I believe you, calm down! Just, answer me this final question. From the time you took Robin at Water 7, and to when I arrived here in this office. Did you ever hit her?” His unexpected words caused Kalifa to look up in a panic. “I-I-I didn’t!” She fumbled out, but her next words were cut short as Amell grabbed her throat tightly with his right hand. “As a government top agent, I thought you would be better at lying.” He snapped her neck, giving her a quick and merciful death. It was not that she forgave her for hurting Robin, it was that Amell saw the act of prolonged killing as just waist of time. In the end, they always die, so why drag it out just to waist time.

“Did none of you care for this woman? Why are you not attacking me?” Amell threw a little scorn their way, but the agents didn’t react. The reason for this wasn’t that they didn’t care for Kalifa. It was that except for Lucci, the other ones were all completely frozen still out of fear. They were utterly paralyzed.

“I see. Then, why drag on it.” Amell raised two fingers, and the agents except Lucci got red in the face, then blue or slightly purple, and finally, their hearts slowed down and small amounts of blood flowed out from their eyes and nose before their hearts finally stopped beating.

“Lucci, I will give you an opportunity for I have had my eyes on you for some time. My inner circle needs another member and I think you would do just fine for that. So, what say you about joining me and live another day?”

“I decline. No matter how I struggle or try this day, I will not walk out of here. The more I try the more embarrassing my death will be. So, kill me and be done with it.” Lucci stood fully prepared for death.

“As you wish. Shame you wouldn’t join me, I could have made something out of you.” Amell took a quick step forward and pierced his chest with one quick thrust with his hand. “Rest in peace!” Amell burned the blood of his hand and sighed out loud.

“Now only one thing remains to be done,” Amell said and turned around and walked over to Robin.

“ROOBBBIIINNN!!” From just outside the building a familiar voice to Robin came and caused all the people in the room to look over to where it came from.

“It appears my captain has arrived, grandpa.” Robin smiled sweetly, almost melting Amell’s heart with that smile alone.

“It appears so. My time to meet Shanks apprentice has come at last.”
