Tiger form, sending a claw attack towards the old lady, she dodged it and hit my fingers with a quick slap but I didn't stop there, two claws towards both directions, cutting the air around the claw.

Swish! The old lady jumped above avoiding the attack but this didn't slow me from finishing the attack while rotating my body in turn. "Hmm" The old lady finally became serious, she began to use her legs as she hit my entire body with all her limbs, the people in robes around us were shocked including Johnson but I didn't flinch from that attack, I finally caught a leg and using her momentum I used her as a sword by swinging her into the ground once, twice and thrice before she escaped my grip.

Blood flowed out of her broken ankle, she raised her injured leg towards her waist and took a defensive stance. Time to see how effective the Phantom Thief form is, I disappeared from my spot and appeared behind her, sending a slicing opened fist attack, the old lady slowly rotated her body and pushed the attack towards the air while she countered the attack with the same attack.

"Let us end this" I smiled and grabbed her neck with my full speed, no skills were used the entire time. She began punching my body but she gave up after 5 minutes, I dropped her to the ground and sat opposite side of her. "You did great, catch" I threw her a card.

"What is this?" She looked shocked at the card, "When the time is right you will know". I gestured Johnson to stand next to me before the Black Castle door opened and we both entered it, leaving everyone shocked.

"Master, where next?" I smiled as it asked me, "Follow these locations.." I said as I opened the long paper that Hope gave me.

"Yes, Master" The wisp went towards the next location, the scene repeated itself.. Training towards each place, cold, hot... Fighting every moment and choosing the true leaders of the world.

Months went by and finally, we are 1 month away from the launch of our game. "Ace, I am ready," Johnson said as he wore his suit, "Good, keep your head raised if you want to take your children, tell me" I patted his back as we appeared at the large manor door.

"Hollow, black mask," I said as a black mask formed on my face. "Let's go" I walked with Johnson through the door, the guards were shocked as we appeared from nowhere out of a golden door. "Stop!" A courageous guard stuttered as he told us to stop, "Get out of my way, I am here to meet my parents" Johnson said as he released a bit of his killing intent. The guards stood with fear and made way.

We walked slowly, every step was heavy for Johnson but this is a path he chose, I only gave him a hand in it. "Johnson, even if they failed you, killing won't be the best choice.. I have been there before, I can tell you that once you kill.." I said carefully to Johnson, "No need to remind me, my kids are here." Johnson said calmly.

His steps became normal and he raised his head as we approached the manor door. The door was pulled open by a butler, "Good morning Mr. Johnson, your parents have been worried about you!" The butler spoke as he welcomed us in. "Morning Frank, I am here to meet them, is the entire family here?" Johnson asked with a smile.

"Indeed, they are waiting in the meeting room, follow me" The butler took a quick glance at me before walking in the large hall. Moments passed and we reached another large door. The butler knocked on the door and someone inside said "Enter".

Following Johnson, we entered the room, 9 people were sitting on the chairs. "Johnson! Where have you been?!" The wife shouted, "You shameful child! Making me worry about you!" The mother screamed, "Take a seat" The father said.

Johnson kept his smile and I followed him to sit on the king's chair which was the only one in the room and folded my legs on it. Everyone looked at me shocked, I gestured for Johnson to begin, "Father, mother, Michael, Jodie, sisters.. I am not here to play around the family game, but end my relationship with you all.. as for you Michael, at first I wanted to kill you but after being with my master, I discovered that someone like you isn't worth a dime" Johnson said while sitting on his chair relaxed, he looked at Michael sitting on the side.

"You dare speak to your elder brother like that!" The father spoke and stood up, he was about to walk towards Johnson to slap him but after I leaked a bit of my black aura outside he felt scared and went back to sit.

"I won't intervene but anyone that tries to harm my people.. you will pay a very, very heavy price like the previous ones" I said in a cold voice. Everyone became scared, Johnson continued speaking "I don't know what I did to you Michael, never once did I harm you, steal from you or treat you badly.. All I did for my family was be good but taking my wife, my children.. my family, I felt sad, depressed and angry"

The room was silent, the sisters on the side had wide eyes, Michael squinted his eyes and looked at Johnson angrily before speaking "So what? Didn't you steal my entire savings before!"

Johnson was confused, I smiled and spoke "Maria, shouldn't you speak now? Or are you scared?"

The family looked at the youngest girl here, "I didn't know! Sorry!" She began crying. I smiled and continued "Well, you had 10 years to help out your brother but not only did you lie about the money, you even told your eldest brother that Johnson stole it right?"

Not allowing her to speak I looked at Michael "You had money to investigate it, not only did you push the blame into your brother, you made him live a life worse than an office worker while fucking his wife."

Johnson calmed himself down and spoke "Thank you, Boss, I am not here to receive an apology, it is already too late as I found a better path in my life, family? I am not even sure if those children of yours are my own, fix the relationship between us? I have no time for that as you all have failed to do that before.. Boss we can leave now"

Johnson stood up and waited for me to stand up, I smiled and stood up. As we were about to leave the room, the silent room shook with a shout "Wait! Johnson!" Michael stood up from his chair looking at Johnson depressed, "I know what I did but please let me fix this".

I stopped Johnson from speaking, "Fix it? Pick up the glass next to you first" I commanded him with a cold voice, Michael was confused and picked the glass. "Throw it to the wall," I said coldly again, Michael threw it and it shattered. "Let us leave Johnson" I opened the door and left.

Michael shouted "WHY ARE YOU LEAVING, I DID WHAT YOU JUST SAID!", I didn't reply but allowed Johnson to reply, "Fix it" and he followed behind me.

"Master, the cars are ready outside" Rose spoke through the earphone and I smiled. The family was walking behind us, shouting all types of words to stop us but no one did once they say the cars parked outside. "Boss!" Jax shouted with a smile, I nodded and entered the open car door followed by Johnson on the other side of the car.

I took out a cig and placed it in my mouth, Jax lighted it up before closing the door and sitting on the driver seat. The car was yet to move but four children came running from the inside of the manor, crying.. "Leave Jax" I took a smoke and noticed that Johnson also lighted a cig he took from my pack.

The car began moving, the kids tried to run behind the car but they were held by the family, Michael had tears streaming out of his eyes, the father and mother were holding each other and regretting their actions. The sisters were crying too while the guards watched in horror as the logo on the car was G.

"Remember this words Johnson, they will regret everything bad they did to you and remember everything good you did to them but betrayal will never change its definition as you are but a glass cup that has been shattered once.." I took another smoke and watched the skies outside.

"Yes, Boss," Johnson said with a calm voice. "Jax, take us to the refugee camp".
