Chapter 163: CHAPTER 162



He wasn\'t complaining about the fact that he had more work, as he was also making more money, what caused him headaches was the fact that Andrew was making new requests and they had to be done on the fly and that forced him to plan many things in a short time, such as hiring new workers.

Andrew knew he was being a pain in Oto\'s ass every time he asked him to add something, but there was nothing he could do. The remodeling at first was intended as a simple expansion because it was necessary and they were low on funds, however, by destroying the bosses in the area and making a lot of money, Andrew decided to upgrade everything he could all at once.

Even though the remodeling was much more expensive than planned, Andrew was happy with the result, especially since Oto met the two-week deadline, that was why Andrew decided to hire Oto again when he decided to expand again.

When they arrived at the cell where the man who tried to kill Andrew was being held, they could see Oliver in front of the man who was tied to a wooden chair by his arms and legs.

These were not normal ropes, as anyone with a little strength could break simple ropes. These ropes that held him were enchanted with some scribal spells and prevented him from gathering strength.

For this reason, the captured man could do nothing because he had the strength of an ordinary 5-year-old boy at the moment. The prisoner was still unconscious, so Oliver went over to him and slapped him awake.

The man opened his eyes with difficulty and when he tried to move, he realized that he was tied to a chair and could not muster his strength. Resignedly he raised his head to look at Oliver.

"If you answer my questions I will give you a quick and painless death. Who are you?" said Oliver calmly as if the death threat he had just given was a lie.

The man looked at him carefully and sighing said, "Why would I answer you, if you are going to kill me anyway?" to which Oliver replied, "Because it is better to die quickly and painlessly than to be tortured to death."

That simple statement would make most people freak out and start spilling the beans, but this man was no novice. He had lived through many experiences throughout his life and it wasn\'t the first time he had been in a situation like this, so he was still playing hard to get.

Unfortunately for him, Oliver was no amateur either. As an experienced general he had the means to get what he wanted and seeing that the prisoner had no intention of talking he said, "Well, it will be the hard way".

When he finished speaking, one of Shadow\'s members appeared from the shadows. He was a specialist in collecting information from prisoners, in other words, he was an expert in torture.

Oliver walked out of the cell leaving the prisoner with the Shadow member. At that moment Andrew along with the girls arrived and Oliver approached them saying, "Young master, ladies, I don\'t think it is convenient at this time to come here."

They all understood what Oliver meant and although Andrew was seething with anger, he did not want his wives to witness the brutal torture of the prisoner, so he nodded his head and withdrew with them.

Oliver escorted them back to the office, as he had no reason to stay in the basement. He was not an expert in torture or anything like it, so his presence was unnecessary.

They had barely finished climbing the stairs when a piercing scream of pain could be heard. The girls immediately blanched, as they couldn\'t imagine what they were doing to the prisoner that made him scream like that, but Andrew and Oliver were unfazed.

Andrew had experience torturing people because when Debos attacked them, he himself "Interrogated" some of them and Oliver had witnessed far more terrifying acts in his life.

Once in the office, Oliver told them again what happened and also confessed that he was present when Aki confronted the killer. Both Andrew and the girls furrowed their brows at the news, as they didn\'t understand why he didn\'t immediately intervene and allow Aki to suffer such trauma.

Moreover, if Andrew couldn\'t see that Oliver was completely loyal to him he would have thought he had betrayed him. Oliver noticing the expressions of doubt in them began to explain.

"Miss Carolina, Helena, and the young master are not fighters, so you can\'t understand, but Miss Aki has been trained and possesses combat strength, so she will always try to fight to protect you, but she is weak."

Oliver paused his explanation and looked at the three who were paying attention to him and continued, "Her weakness can be fatal, so I wanted her to understand that she is still weak and thus concentrate on improving her strength."

"Do you want to train her?" asked Andrew and Oliver answered immediately, "Young master, your path is much more complex than anyone may think, so enemies will not be lacking, strong people by your side are necessary and Miss Aki being your wife should improve more."

"I understand your point, I know we need more strong people, I just find it hard to put her under so much pressure after the life she\'s had," Andrew said a little wistfully.

"I also understand your point young master, but her getting stronger will also help keep her safe. Besides, I think now that she is happy with you she won\'t want to lose you," Oliver said sympathetically.

Andrew understood Oliver\'s point and although he was reluctant he nodded his head in agreement as he said, "That\'s fine, but she must agree," to which Oliver replied, "Of course."

At that moment the Shadow member interrogating the prisoner appeared from the shadows. "That was quick," Andrew said wrinkling his eyebrows and Oliver smiled as he said, "Well, he\'s a specialist."

"Thanks for the compliment," the Shadow member said bowing slightly. "So, what did you get?" immediately asked Oliver. "The man calls himself Killer and he\'s a reputable hitman in town with a 100% kill rate."

"He was hired by Silvio to take out the young master, but I suspect that man was just testing the waters." When the Shadow member finished speaking, everyone fell silent and after a few minutes, Oliver said, "I think we should expedite our meeting with that man."

Andrew agreed and after some further discussion, Oliver left with the Shadow member to plan everything for the future fight with Silvio.

Meanwhile at the pleasure house "Paradise", Milton walked into the office where Silvio and Nadila were meeting and said, "Killer failed". Although a bit surprised, Silvio had considered the possible failure, so he didn\'t lament.

"Looks like the Heavenly Palace will be a bit entertaining," Silvio said with a smile. Milton and Nadila said nothing, but their feelings were different. The former was excited because as a battle maniac, he wanted a worthy opponent and it seemed he had found one.

On the other hand, Nadila was delighted because Killer\'s failure was proof of the strength of the Heavenly Palace and therefore a hope for her to collect her revenge at their hand.

What none of them knew was that Andrew and the others knew that they were the masterminds behind the attack because when they hired Killer they did it in a hidden way, so as not to leave evidence, however, Killer who was a man of experience had investigated and discovered them.

Killer was a cunning and intelligent man, not to mention he had considerable strength, however, he was nothing compared to Oliver and although he was confident in enduring torture when he was captured, the Shadow member who interrogated him also had his methods, which is why he broke so quickly.

Now Silvio was planning what would be his next move, unaware that his enemies already knew about him and were organizing to destroy him. Silvio was a calculating man, but he was also too arrogant and it was that arrogance that did not allow him to see that he was not the hunter, but the prey.

While the battle between these two was approaching, in the castle the king, the ministers, Aldus, Redeus, and Arturios listened to Demon\'s report. Apart from the king and Arturios, this was the first time they had seen Demon.

Wearing his characteristic black cloak that concealed his entire body, Demon handed a letter to the king and left as usual. Everyone was surprised by Demon\'s eccentric attitude, but the king and Arturios paid no attention, as they already knew him.

The king looked at the letter and the more he read, the more annoyed he became and when he finished, he handed the letter to the others to read.

The office was in complete silence while the letter passed from hand to hand and they learned about the situation and when Arturios, who was the last one to read it, finished reading it, a strong burst of power came out of his body, it was obvious that he was upset.
