Matthew couldn't help but be astonished.Melvin Lennon.
Just who is he for him to state such bold claims?
"Melvin, what's going to happen now? Would the Assassins Alliance keep sending out assassins to assassinate Matthew?" asked the crown prince.
With a wave of his hand, Melvin replied, "I wouldn't bet on it.There is still a proper order in the way the Assassins Alliance runs things.What the clients buy is the service of an assassin.The assassin that was hired will then continue to hunt the target until his mission is completed.Naturally, should the assassins that were hired get killed in action, then the mission would be considered a failure.In such cases, the Assassins Alliance would not send out another batch of assassins for the failed target.The only option left for the client is to pay the alliance more money to hire another assassin to carry out the hit.Since we've dealt with the assassins here, the alliance would consider it a mission failure.Unless Gilbert pays for another assassin to take over the job, the alliance won't be giving you more trouble!"
The crown prince sighed in relief.
"I'm at ease if that's the case."
Even Matthew was reassured by Melvin, though curiosity about the Assassins Alliance quickly filled Matthew's mind.
"The Assassins Alliance's rules are rather unique." Melvin smiled.
"Those with power would naturally be unique.Since the Assassins Alliance is a powerful group, the others would have to play by their rules.Furthermore, the assassins of the alliance are divided into different rankings and skills.If you want to avoid a mission failure, then you can pay a higher price to
employ a much more skilled assassin.So long as you pay enough money, they would even be willing to kill the six kings for you!"
Both Matthew and the crown prince widened their eyes and were thoroughly flabbergasted at what Melvin had said.
The six kings were by no means easy targets, and each of them could be said to be peerless, disregarding the other kings.
For the Assassins Alliance to even dare take on a job that involved the kings as their target only showed that the power of the alliance was nothing to sneeze at.
After their discussion, the three went back to the city.It was then that Matthew received a call from Tommy, who asked him about how to handle the luxury goods left in his room.
Slightly confused over the question, Matthew asked for further clarification before understanding the situation.
It turned out Lucy did not take any of the luxury goods with her when she left the hotel.
The hotel staff was shocked when they found the mountain of luxury goods inside the room and immediately reported it to Tommy.
Matthew was slightly surprised by Lucy's action.He knew how big of a temptation those luxury goods had to girls.
Back then, he had already seen the shine in Lucy's eyes as Lucy stared at the mountain of luxury goods.He thought that even for a celebrity like Lucy, the temptation of these goods would have won her over.
Furthermore, Matthew had told her that the luxury goods were to be hers.
The possibility that Lucy would overcome the temptation and leave the hotel with only the clothes she wore had never occurred in Matthew's mind.
Thus, what Tommy reported to Matthew was out of Matthew's expectations.
If it were any other girl, those luxury goods would have been long gone from the hotel room.
Regardless, he couldn't care less about the matter and had left Tommy in charge of what to do with the goods.
After his call with Tommy ended, a call from Philip came as well.
Philip told Matthew that the nine family heads would be holding a banquet for Matthew and the crown prince at the Cameron Hotel as an apology to the two men.
Hearing that, Matthew did not refuse the invitation and agreed to attend on the spot.
Meanwhile, inside another five-star hotel in Eastshire.
Lucy was sitting with Alyssa—who was just as fair and beautiful as Lucy—and had clearly been crying, evidenced by Lucy's swollen eyes.
Alyssa was also a national celebrity like Lucy and had a good relationship with the latter, as the two were debut mates.
Since Alyssa was more of a violent person, she became angry after listening to Lucy retelling of what happened the night prior.
"Lucy, you've been deceived! Do you think this is some fantasy drama? Taking off your clothes to cure poison? I'm telling you right now, that man is a degenerate and is taking advantage of you! You absolutely must have no mercy for a person like him!"
