Chapter 281 281:Where Is Qin Lang?
Avelin stepped forward and ordered.
[Stuff their mouth with gag and if they dare to speak anymore, shove a weapon or anything sharp beneath their mouth.]
Ordering this Avelin and the other ghostly servants of Leon glared at Hades with fury in their eyes, their greenish glowing eyes radiating palpable anger. They had served Leon faithfully, bound to him by an unbreakable bond of loyalty.
Seeing Hades, who claimed to be Leon\'s servant, incited a deep sense of anger in him.
Hades was then freed and pulled by two figures who made him stand before them with a mixture of anger. His green hair hung limp around his tired eyes, his expression one of desperation as he pleaded for recognition from his supposed master.
"Boss... I am by your side, so why are you doing this to me?" Hades implored, his voice tinged with desperation.
"I am your boss... Your eternal and faithful dog, Hades," he continued, his words falling on deaf ears as Avelin and the others remained unmoved by his pleas.
As tension thickened in the air, Hades glanced nervously at Leon, hoping for some sign of acknowledgment or support. But Leon\'s expression remained impassive, his gaze was unreadable as he observed the unfolding scene before him.
The ghostly shadows, fueled by their sense of duty and loyalty to Leon, brimmed with animosity towards Hades. They had served their master faithfully, and the idea of someone claiming to be his servant filled them with righteous indignation.
[Master, this human is annoying. Please permit me to put someone\'s sense into him.]
Avelin shouted, kneeling on the floor.
The others also followed his motion and kneeled.
[Master, I want to rip that guy\'s foul mouth. How dare he address you as his master. Such insolent behavior.]
Terpas shouted in fury.
With each passing moment, the atmosphere grew increasingly tense, the silent standoff between Hades and the ghostly servants reaching a boiling point.
Leon remained silent, his gaze shifting between Hades and a group of madman fanatics as if weighing his options. Finally, with a subtle nod of his head, he signaled for calm, diffusing the tension that had gripped the room.
Avelin and the others reluctantly backed down, their anger tempered by their master\'s silent command. Hades breathed a sigh of relief, grateful for the reprieve, but a sense of unease lingered in the air.
As the tension eased, Leon turned his attention to Hades, his eyes boring into the man with an intensity that sent a shiver down his spine.
There was a silent understanding between them, and Hades knew that there was a chance to turn around.
So in his mind, he already started preparing to speak aloud.
At that moment, Hades knew that he had narrowly escaped the wrath of Leon\'s ghost but this didn\'t calm them down. His life was still hanging on thin ropes.
And as he stood before his master, he vowed to prove his loyalty, no matter the cost.
"What did he do?"
Leon asked.
[Kidnapping, selling slaves, drug trafficking.]
Leon\'s eyes glowed looking at Hades for explanation.
"What do you have to say now?"
Hades bent on the floor and his head"Boss, I am innocent."
"I am just following your orders. As per your order, the ones I kidnapped are foul beasts and criminals. After kidnapping them, I pull out their organs and donate them to children\'s welfare programs or other needy. Those who can\'t be donated are sent to a human lab for testing of medicines that were looking for human guinea pigs fetching a very high price."
"As for drug trafficking, you asked me to blend and track everything so I have a record of all dealers and records. And the ones my team kidnapped are all young masters who were killed, raped, or squandered."
After listening to all these, Leon couldn\'t help but raise his brows.
The orders given looked like something that only he could give.
Leon knew one fact...No matter what you can never get rid of dirt. If we kill every bad person today, new ones will sprout out of nowhere.
Only if you can eliminate the bad qualities and restructure the entire world, you can curb it all but this wasn\'t possible.
Even if you have the power to do so, how can you know if the new society can work like that? Because sometimes people need certain negative emotions to work and go ahead.
So all he could do was take care of things he came across and leave the rest to fate.
"Have you never done anything bad?"
Hearing this Hades trembled and lowered his head.
"Boss, I was just a pickpocket stealer trying to cure my sick mother but you found me, and your family resources had helped me to reach here. From nobody, I became a pseudo-
martial Emperor and am now king of a huge organization."
"However, in the end, I am sheltering evil people and no matter how hard I try, many people under me oppose and do many vile deeds. I get rid of them once I find them but still, there might be many whom I hadn\'t seen. I am not omniscient after all."
"If you think I deserve to die please kill me but please take care of my family."
Leon\'s gaze lingered on Hades lowering his head.
After a moment, he ordered, "Avelin there is a new order."
"Check everyone\'s family situation, instances, and what things lead them here. Also, see if they had done any good deed."
[Master, does it make any difference.]
Casting a rueful smile, Leon spoke resolutely, "No, it doesn\'t."
"Everyone needs to pay for their crimes.
\'Even I one day need to pay for my sins.\'
[What about them?]
"Each of them is an orphan right?"
[Yes, most of them. Only the ones you designated as villains have families but each one of them is a heinous bastard.]
"Kill them all..."Leon paused a bit as he remembered the things his grandmother spoke.
"We kill them but before that..."
A threatening murderous aura dyed the room.
"Which one among you is that fucker is Qin Lang!"
