The young man said, "I'm heading to the Yorks' stronghold. I’ll first take that scumbag Cole Yorks' life, then I'll go back immediately."
"That’s not the task given to you by the military intelligence division!" Lil Thirteen stopped him. "You know very well that if you violate the military intelligence division, you'll die."
The young man's expression became heavy, and his voice sounded suffocated. "Cole Yorks killed my dad. I have to avenge him. Even if it breaks the military intelligence division's rule, I have to be headstrong at least this one time."
Lil Thirteen’s mouth moved slightly, but she stopped herself from talking.
After a short while, Lil Thirteen prompted again. "That Doomsday general is absolutely not someone without talents. I'm afraid he’ll try to get in your way if you want to kill Cole Yorks. You have to be careful.”
This clearly meant that she acquiesced in letting the young man stay at Peach Blossom County.
The young man smiled brilliantly, looking utterly charming when he did. Who would have thought he was the wicked Monster who wreaked havoc in a
country and caused suffering to its people?
"Are you worried about me, Lil Thirteen? Don’t forget that the people from the military intelligence division shouldn't fall in love.”
Lil Thirteen's graceful face sank. "You're the one being indecent."
Only then did the young man restrain his unruliness and say with a stern face, "That general is now blind. H e won't be a hindrance."
Lil Thirteen kept feeling like something was amiss, but she could not figure out what it was. She had no other alternative but to handle everything and exhorted the young man again. "I keep having this feeling that the task was completed way too smoothly. You have to keep your eyes peeled."
The young man proudly replied, "Can't you see who's the one doing the task?"
Lil Thirteen glanced at the Nine Paintings. She seemed to have noticed some abnormalities and proceeded to open it one at a time, looking at the front and back of each painting.
Then, she solemnly looked at Baby Robbie and threw the Nine Paintings at him. She mocked, saying," You’ve been duped."
The young man looked at the initially painted wooden board that had turned into its original wood color. The carvings on it had also become loop-sided. He immediately landed an angry slam on the table.
Lil Thirteen chuckled uncontrollably. "I think Lil Fox has met an old fox. I was wondering how a 5S task was so easily completed. In the past, when the military intelligence division performed any rank S tasks, it was bound to be a waste of money and workforce."
The young man retorted, "Truly a respectable opponent. Then, we'll play along slowly."
