Day Twenty Four…

[ Country J: Red Dragon Mafia's Sanitarium… ]
As early as today, the Dragon Lord caught his flight, going to Country J. Their Sanitarium was located there.
When the Dragon Lord arrived at the Sanitarium, he quickly headed to the VIP room where Phantomflake's body was transferred.
Several guards were standing outside the VIP room. Jack welcomed his Big Boss. The Dragon Lord greeted Jack with a wide smile on his face. He tapped Jack's shoulder and praised him.
"Good job, Jack."
Jack smiled and rubbed his nose. "Thanks to Spade and Black Rose, I was able to pull it off."
The Dragon Lord nodded his head. Spade talked to him this morning. He asked for another laptop since SizzlingAugust08 destroyed his laptop after the rescue operation.
The Dragon Lord bought him the latest model of a MacBook. He also deposited several thousand dollars to Jack's and Spade's accounts, including the team.
"How is she?" The Dragon Lord asked Jack about Phantomflake's health condition.
"The doctor had just finished the full body check-up. You can talk to him inside. He is waiting for you." Jack informed the Dragon Lord.
The Dragon Lord didn't waste any more time as he entered the VIP room. He was dying to see Phantomflake and to know her current condition.
The head doctor of the Sanitarium was the one who conducted the test. He explained to the Dragon Lord the result of Phantomflake's examination. They spent thirty minutes just talking about it.
When they were done, the Dragon Lord motioned everyone to leave the room. He wanted to see Phantomflake alone.
The Dragon Lord stood in front of Phantomflake's sick bed, a cold glint flashing through his eyes as he looked at her. His lips curled up into a sly smirk.
"Phantomflake… you are as good as dead… but they keep you alive. Now… I finally understood it. I figured it out." The Dragon Lord began talking to Phantomflake.
"The Syphiruz Mafia annihilated your guild… and I finally connected the dots…"
"Nathan Sparks… and the Supreme Leader of the Syphiruz are one person."
The Dragon Lord let out a sinister laughter. He couldn't believe that Nathan fooled him for several years.
"The reason he destroyed your guild… was because of her… Monica." A sullen look appeared in his eyes at the mention of Monica's name.
The Dragon Lord laughed once more but there was no hint of humor in his laughter. Instead, there was a gleam of hatred in his eyes… hatred and resentment for both Nathan and Phantomflake.
"Yes… you should destroy each other. I will be sitting on the other side while clapping my hands for a good show. So Phantomflake… you must wake up. An easy death is not appropriate for you."
The Dragon Lord moved closer to Phantomflake. He extended his hand to reach for her face. He removed her oxygen mask and pinched her jaw.
"I can easily kill you now… but Nathan did all the work… Thanks to him… I can use you to destroy him and his organization."
The Dragon Lord felt the urge to hurt Phantomflake and kill her but this was not the right time to do that. Furthermore, there was no guarantee that Phantomflake would regain consciousness. He thought Nathan was so crazy for keeping her alive.
'I pity him… unlike me… he is very obsessed over you. I wonder how he reacted after finding out you were gone.'
Since the Dragon Lord assumed that Nathan was the leader of the Syphiruz Mafia. He could now strategize further on how he would attack him and his organization.
Though he didn't have proof, knowing that Nathan was the one who kept Phantomflake and considering his connection to the Syphiruz, the Dragon Lord was able to conclude that Nathan was the Supreme Leader of Syphiruz Mafia.

Meanwhile, back to Country M, Nathan went home after Stephen convinced him to do so. Staying in the Medical Facility was not good for his mental state.
Stephen reassured him that he would monitor and investigate what happened and how Phantomflake was taken out of the facility. With his current mental state, Nathan couldn't decide wisely. His rage would cloud his mind and judgment.
When Nathan reached the mansion, he walked inside without minding the people around him. Abigail and Butler Li were in the living room when Nathan walked past them.
The two could tell that Nathan was not in the mood. His expression could no longer be painted. Butler Li and Abigail exchanged glances with one another. After understanding each other, the two followed Nathan behind.
Nathan was holding a bottle of whiskey when he entered his study room. Abigail and Butler Li stayed outside, trying to eavesdrop by the door.
They could hear Nathan's footsteps. After a while, they heard crashing sounds inside the room. It looked like Nathan was now flipping things around and throwing them inside.
"Ahem… Miss Abi… I think… we should leave. Master Nathan will not like to see us here. Let's give him some time alone." Butler Li grabbed Abigail's arm as he pulled her.
Nathan was running amok inside his study room. Butler Li could already imagine the outcome. They would have to clean his study room tomorrow with lots of broken glasses and things. It would look chaotic inside.
Abigail could only sigh deeply and nodded her head.
"Please don't let Young Master Ethan see Master Nathan in this state. Fortunately, the young master went to school today." Butler Li heaved a sigh of relief.
"Yes, I know." Abigail tossed one last look at Nathan's door before she turned around. She was reluctant to leave but she couldn't do anything to console him.
'Fuck Red Dragon Mafia! They make things more complicated for me. I must secure my body back… no matter what! I can't trust them!' Abigail thought to herself. She thought she would like to do this for her sake. But deep inside, Nathan was one of the reasons she wanted to take her body back.
