James had disguised himself among the mercenaries.
He avoided any rash actions the entire time.
Instead, he silently observed.
When Willy ordered everyone to move toward the mountain top, he followed the mercenaries in tow.
After they gathered at the top, James scanned his surroundings. He was able to make a rough guess on how many people were gathered there.
There were around five hundred mercenaries and all of them were armed to the teeth.
The remainder totaled up to fifty people, including foreigners.
He saw Henry, who was being trampled underfoot, surrounded by seven or eight men. They all pointed their guns at Henry’s head. If he had made one wrong move, Henry would have been killed on the spot.
Even if James believed he could kill everyone here, he chose his actions carefully.
He was here to save a life, not to kill.
Willy’s eyes scanned the mercenaries gathered before him.
He suddenly realized something and yelled, “Everyone, retreat!”
After that exclamation, he grabbed the dying Henry off the ground and pressed a gun against his head. Then, he once again looked at the mercenaries who had retreated.
“I know you’re in there, Black Dragon! Show yourself now if you don’t want him to die. Or else, I’ll blow his brains out”
Hearing this, the fighters from twenty-eight different countries were on high alert. They watched the mercenaries from afar intently.
James, who had concealed himself among the mercenaries, wore a grim expression.
Who was the masked man? He seemed to know much about him.
“Black Dragon! Since you’re here, show yourself!”
“I’m curious to see if you’re truly that impressive as the rumors say.”
“Today, I will slaughter the dragon for all to see.”
…
The fighters from twenty-eight different countries cheered on.
Willy pressed the gun against the back of Henry’s head and yelled, “I’m going to count to three. If you don’t show yourself by then, I’ll kill him immediately.”
“One!”
He called out all the while watching the group of mercenaries closely.
“Two!”
His eyes scanned the crowd.
However, no one moved a muscle.
A silver needle appeared in James’ hand.
