Chapter 269 - 268: The Performance
In a blink of an eye, Eunji was already behind him. Gripping the arm which was holding his gun.
The gun that Eunji had thrown sure hit his forehead and had fallen on the ground stunning him in the process.
Cobra was relatively taller than Eunji. The guy was six feet tall and with a good build.
Where as Eunji, she stood five feet nine inches.
The three inches difference in height was not much of a big deal. She could take him down instantly in which she did in the next moments.
Gripping his forearm tightly, Eunji used her strength to redirect the nozzle of the gun to the ground and used his own forefinger to pull the trigger hitting himself on the thigh.
"Ahhhh!!" He screamed.
After that, Eunji then took the gun and took advantage of the moment that he was still in screaming in pain because of shooting himself.
Eunji then disassembled the gun in front of everyone.
All of these happened in less than twelve seconds.
Everyone was amazed to witness how fast she could do it. Her speed was beyond explanation. No matter how long they would train as an agent, they could never reach that potentia when it comes to speed.
Now they thought Cobra was unlucky for challenging the big boss.
Cobra had fallen on the ground and had no idea what had just happened.
When he looked up, Eunji had already given him a punch in the face.
"Yah!" Cobra then spat the blood out of his mouth as he yelled in anger as he looked at her in hatred.
But she was not done with him yet. Eunji then kicked him strongly on the side creating a crisp sound of bone breaking that resonated on the air.
Everyone looked at Eunji in horror as they heard it all.
How could her kick broke Cobra's ribs?
"Ahh!!" He yelled one more time in pain as he coiled up in pain and spat blood.
Eunji then took advantage of his pain and she gathered both of his arms behind him and sat on them using her weight to lock them in place.
She then grabbed a handful of his hair while her domineering voice sounded.
"Tell me. Tell me who sent you to be a mole?!" Eunji interrogated him.
Cobra then laughed hysterically as soon as he heard Eunji interrogation.
He then opened his mouth and finally spoke.
"If you're really that capable, why are you asking me then?" Based on his tone alone, it was clear that he was not denying it.
He wanted to piss Eunji but she was not buying it either.
"Mistress! Seems like there's a misunderstanding here. He's not a traitor."
Monkey interrupted but he himself was unsure. He had trained with Cobra since day one and he didn't find anything suspicious about him. Except that recently, he would often challenge him...which he thought was pretty normal.
Eunji didn't look at him but focused on the man she had pinned underneath her.
Eunji only chuckled as she heard his taunting question.
"Yah! Do you really think that I can't extract from you the truth?" She spat at him coldly.
She then slammed Cobra's face on the ground a couple of times mercilessly making his face to bleed and be covered with dirt.
"Look at me!" She said and Cobra had no other choice but to follow.
His face was already in between her palm and was forcing her to look at him.
"You'll tell me what you know. Nothing more, nothing less!" She coldly said.
Cobra wanted to resist at first but as he looked at Eunji's eyes, he could no longer bear to do so.
Eunji used her eyes as she moved them from left to right and then looked at her with her fierce and intimidating eyes.
Those amber and green eyes had already hypnotized him without his knowledge.
The next second, he was already under her control. His eyes turned blank and he was emotionless.
"It was a man in a cloak who approached and told me to join in KSA. He said that I'll meet the strongest person when I joined. And that person's the boss of KSA." He started.
"And when I did, I have to report back to him on what the big boss looked like. And also report on what was happening inside the organization." He continued.
"When will this happen? When are you going to report to him?" She interrupted.
"He'll checked on me from time to time if I already have the lead. But I told him that only when I was promoted to a certain rank when I could meet the boss personally. So he had not contacted me yet."
"How does this person contact you?" She asked.
"He'll send me a message on where and when we will be meeting. And I just have to show up in that location at the exact time." He said.
"Have you found out much?" She asked him.
"Not that much. The elder agents were so secretive and so loyal to you." Cobra told Eunji. But he did told her what he had discovered as an agent of KSA.
"Anything else he wanted you to do?" She asked him.
"Nothing more." Cobra finished.
That's it. A minute had already passed and he was free from her hypnosis.
"What happened?" He mumbled.
Eunji then released his face but not his body.
"You had just confessed what you had known to me." She smirked and then pulled out a dagger from her boots and cut his throat.
The way she did it was so fast that no blood stained the dagger she had used.
Seconds later, blood gushed out from his throat staining the ground red.
Cobra struggled as he tried his best to stop them from flowing out of his neck but his attempt was futile.
Eunji on the other hand, stood up calmly and left him bleeding there to death.
She calmly tucked the dagger back on her boots and walked towards the entrance of the warehouse.
Monkey hurriedly opened it for her and she went in.
But before she fully entered, she looked back towards the remaining agents who were still in horror behind her and said, "That's the consequences of trying to deceive me and being disloyal to me! Should you pledge your loyalty, I'll be your friend but I'll be your worse nightmare should you be just like him.'"
She then looked at Monkey and told him, "Burn the body. I want a list of his remaining family and relatives. Or anyone who would look for him."
She wanted to give them at least monetary compensation for killing him.
"Alright Mistress. I'll give you the list before this day ended!" Monkey promised.
Call Eunji heartless but that's just how she would do for those people who tried to deceive her and became traitor. If she would not set him as an example and set him free despite knowing everything then, these agents would surely thought that she's so lenient and soft-hearted.
That she's easy to fool. And she didn't want that to happen. She didn't want to encounter another traitor.
Speaking of the traitor, Eunji asked Monkey again, "How's Lion?" She asked him.
"Lion's still clueless on who locked him inside." Monkey said.
The reason why she chose a team of newly promoted agents was J had not seen them yet. He had not recognized them as senior agents. Fresh from their promotion, she had immediately given them this task.
But who would have thought that this small show happened right before she met J?
"That's good." She said.
"I'll request Eagle to give you a new batch of squad members to lead. Be sure that they won't challenge you again. Understood?" She told him.
"Yes, Mistress!" He heaved a sigh because Eunji still belived in him. But still, he felt bad for them though.
Eunji then looked at Angelina who was standing behind her.
"We will meet your lover soon. Don't worry." She teased.
"Geez! I told you I don't have a lover." She denied.
"Okay..." Eunji shrugged her shoulder as if acknowledging her misjudgment on the topic.
As they entered the warehouse, Eunji then scanned the area.
The warehouse was actually empty.
Eunji then walked towards the corner of the warehouse and stomped on something there.
When she did, the middle of the floor slide-opened revealing a spiral staircase going below the ground.
Eunji took the initiative and walked towards there.
"Guard the premises while Angelina and I will go down." She instructed.
"Yes Mistress!" Monkey said as he walked out and do what Eunji told him.
While Angelina moved forward to accompany Eunji in descending down below.
"Has he been here all along?" Angelina asked.
"Yes." Eunji didn't deny.
"What are you going to do to him? You're not going to kill him, right?" Angelina asked softly but Eunji would only answer her question vaguely.
"It depends..." Eunji said.
Depends on what?
The performance.
"Don't worry, I'll inform you beforehand." Eunji even winked at her.
Angelina only rolled her eyes up as she looked at Eunji.
'Whatever!' She thought.
She then focused her attention as she looked down the bottom. The steps were covered with LED which enabled them to see their steps.
A spiral wall was covering the side of the staircase blocking the view of what the interior looked like.
The duo continued climbing down the stairs until they reached the floor.
What welcomed them was a long hallway with a strip of neon LED lights as the only light source that illuminated the way.
The hallway was quite dark as the walls were painted with grey.
It gave off the eerie vibe to be honest. Especially when the lights were off.
"Follow me." Eunji told Angelina and she did.
Eunji's demeanor changed as soon as they stepped closer to where J was being held captive.
After walking approximately fifty steps, Eunji stopped and turned to their right as they faced steel a door.
Eunji punched in the codes and her key card before the door unlocks.
The pressure building up inside was released as soon as the door opened.
As soon as they stepped inside, the lights in the room opened.
Angelina heaved a sigh as finally she could see white light and not darkness.
It took time for her eyes to adjust.
And when they did, she saw a hospital bed in the middle.
And someone was being tied on the middle of it.
He was wearing a hospital gown like that of a patient.
They waited for him to wake up and when he did, as expected, he immediately got up from his sleeping position when he saw Eunji and Angelina in front of him.
"Eunji!" He cried.
"Thank god you found me! An unknown group of people abducted and locked me up here!" He said in helplessness trying to be pity.
"Untie me please and I'll take them down myself!" He continued.
But he then stopped when he realized something was odd.
"Eunji? What's going on? Aren't you going to untie me?" He looked at her with an interrogative look.
Eunji sighed as she looked at him.
She pursed her lips as she studied his condition.
She then looked at Angelina and then back to J.
"What's going on? Shouldn't I be the one asking you that question instead?"
