"Zaydon Woode, you rascal! You were on your way to snitch on us, weren't you? You've been acting all strange for these past few days. Well, now we know it's 'cause you're acting as a spy for Blood-Drinker Gang!" said Great Elder, glaring at him with his fists clenched.
"Zaydon, we have always treated you well. Not to mention, you're the helmsman for Mus Hall! How dare you betray us when you're given hundreds and thousands of dollars to spend every month?" Mick asked between gritted teeth.
Zaydon suddenly scoffed, to everyone's surprise. "Haha, you can only blame yourself for my betrayal since you wouldn't allow me to marry Candy. Besides, Blood-Drinker Gang pays me very well for my service too. They'll definitely wipe Mus Hall out once they get wind of your rebellion. The leader of the gang told me he along with the other elders would come here and kill you if you dare to rebel against them. Then, I'll take over as the new master of Mus Hall. What's more, they also promised to make Candy my wife!"
Candy became red with anger when she heard that. She glared at him and said, "Shame on you, Zaydon! I've already told you I don't like you in that way. I've always seen you as a big brother and nothing more. Besides, why are you so obsessed with me?"
"Haha! Me? Obsessed with you? I guess you can call the all-consuming love I feel for you an obsession. I have nothing else to say to any of you now that my life is in your hands. Kill me or torture me, I don't care."
Zaydon was confident Mick would not kill him as he had made a lot of contributions to Mus Hall. At most, he would be locked up for some time. However, he was also confident he would be released even if that was to happen though he knew for sure they would not accept him back into the group.
Besides, he and Candy had always enjoyed a good relationship with each other. This gave him the illusion that Candy shared his feelings and the confidence he would be able to make her his wife.
"Very well then. Let me grant you your wish!" Severin smiled coldly and kicked Zaydon squarely in the chest.
Blood began to gush out of Zaydon's mouth. He put his hand to his chest as he looked at Severin with a shocked expression on his face. Then, he fell to the ground after a wave of convulsion ripped through his body. Another instant kill by Severin.
"This…"
