Nancy brushed her thumb over the complicated design on it and blinked before she smiled and handed it to Jeslyn. 1
“Take it. With this, you can summon THE SIN-”
“What?!” Jeslyn bolted up. “Are you mistaken? I mean you should select some men for me, I didn’t say you should give me access to your faction!” She frowned.
Nightcrawler who had been glaring at Jeslyn with hostility breathed a sigh of relief and his aura
slowly died down. Had she shown the desire to covet the token just now, he didn’t mind dying, he would have blown her brains out.
His Boss created THE SIN when she was just sixteen years old. It started with the coming together of street kids fighting each other, to a group of bullies. The bullies were called SIN by the people they bullied. The name came off as something interesting to Nancy, so she gladly accepted it.
The name became officially known when the group upgraded from being just bullies to finally being a rogue.
As for the formal name of the City, Watchway, it was changed to SIN CITY by foreigners, who found the gang to be the most prominent thing about the City. Their reign of terror intensified after they eradicated all other rival gangs in the City and became the only faction that stood dominant. Nightcrawler snapped out of memory lane as he looked at Jeslyn who was still reluctant to accept the
token.
“I’m sorry, I can’t accept this, ” She said.
“Don’t think too highly of yourself. I wouldn’t hand over the key to my empire to you even if you kill me. This is just to summon a hundred of my men. You can return it when you’re done.”
Hearing that, Jeslyn finally accepted it. Before she left, Nancy gave her the black Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
“It suits your personality. Take it as my apology.”
“I accept your apology!” Jeslyn took the gun and left with Code 5.
gun.
After they had gone, Nightcrawler plopped to his knees. He looked pained with veins popping on his forehead and eyes turning red.
“Master!”
Nancy got down from the stool and helped him to his feet. With her fair hands on his shoulders, she said, “I think Nanny Xie is right. I want to retire.”
“You’re upset with Death’s outcome. Give me the command and I’ll bring their heads to you! Please, don’t hurt yourself anymore!” How could his Master hand her empire that she took so many years to build to Jeslyn?
Nancy gritted her teeth and her hold on Nightcrawler’s shoulders tightened. “They made a mistake when they killed Death,” tears ran down her cheeks. The guy was more than a brother to her. He and Nightcrawler were there from the very beginning. They protected her like she was the only girl in
their family, Alas, they were orphans roaming the streets, begging, and getting bullied until she found them and made their matter, her business.
The two gradually became the trees she leaned on, the ground she walked on, and the sky that shielded her from the sun, yet the Half–hearts killed Death without a second thought.
“Master, please give me the command to seek revenge!!” Nightcrawler fell to his knees again but Nancy shook her head.
She furiously wiped her tears and said, “Doyenne has not sent an apology, but rather sent twenty people she deemed worthless to speak to me. It’s an indirect form of beating the drum of war. Crawler, there must be a reason she did that. Also, we don’t have what it takes to kill their witches. So, I don’t want you to go down the same route as Death. However, his revenge will be sought, even if it’s the last thing I do!” She declared. Her aura flared, as she once again brought out the air of the powerful and ruthless ‘Nancy‘ she had been suppressing.
Nightcrawler felt his heart bubbling but once he thought about the token, his mood dampened.
“Boss, how can we seek revenge? We no longer have authority over our people.” She just gave THE SIN’s token away to Jeslyn!
Nancy let go of his shoulder and walked to the floor–to–ceiling window. Standing there and looking at the big compound, she said, “I don’t need the boys to seek revenge, Jeslyn will do it for me.”
“What do you mean, Master?”
She turned and looked at him, ignoring his question. “Crawler, I’m retreating to the dark and I’m setting you free once again…”
“No, Master! I refuse to leave! Please don’t force me away!”
Nancy shook her head, “I don’t have much time to live and I don’t want to die before Hwang. The only cure is the stone, so I want to go in search of it on my own.”
“What if you encounter danger on your way? What if your sickness strikes again without warning? What-”
“The last time was because of the poisoned cake. It won’t happen again, I’ll be more careful.”
“I must come along. You’ll need someone to talk to, or ask questions.” The guy said with. determination.
Nancy smiled, “OK. But before then, get me Lawyer Zee.”
“You want to change your will?”
At night…
The sky, unlike other nights, had no sign of the moon or stars. It was pitch black, standing as a cover for the ‘black cats‘ running soundlessly on the rooftops and leaping over fences.
Some were soundlessly snapping necks and giving smash downs to their enemies in suits, standing there with guns, oblivious to the grim reapers coming for their lives.
In less than ten minutes, more than a hundred men, who were standing guard around the building
and were all lying lifeless on the floor.
Those having beautiful dreams in their sleep were not left out. The ninjas running on rooftops flipped themselves into rooms and slit the throats of the sleeping guards.”
Even those in the control room, who couldn’t see anything on their screens as they looked vigilantly in the hopes to watch for any strange movement, were not given the opportunity to know their killers.
The five of them found themselves falling dead after their necks were slit from behind. How the doors were opened without a single sound made, is something that only the assailants could explain.
