âYou ought to thank me! I saved your life! Now we are even.â Beatrice was pleased with herself.
Maximilian smiled and said, âThanks.â
Beatrice didnât know that Maximilian wouldnât be hit by the car even without her help.
âGet off,â Maximilian said with a long face.
Mark pretended to be scared and said, âI am getting off! Donât kill me.â
Just as he unbuckled his seat-belt, Mark drew out a dagger and aimed toward Maximilian.
Maximilian narrowed his eyes. He was watching Markâs actions all along. This naive sneak attacks could do no harm at all.
Mark was thrilled to see himself was going to succeed. But Maximilian held Markâs wrist and the dagger got stopped inches away from Maximilianâs chest.
Mark couldnât get any further no matter how hard he tried.
Maximilian turned Markâs wrist and a sharp pain shot through Markâs arm. He dropped his dagger and tears fell down, âPlease donât hurt me.â
âWho hired you?â Maximilian press harder and asked. Only violence could tackle men like Mark.
âThe Killer God,â Mark said painfully.
âWho is Killer God?â Maximilian asked. He never heard of Killer God before.
âYou donât know the Killer God?â
Maximilian hardened his grip.
âThe Killer God is our companyâs boss. You are going to cripple my hand.âMarkâs face was pale as a sheet.
âWhy kill me?â Maximilian kept on asking.
âIt is a mission from the Killer God. I donât know the details. â
âWill he asked others to kill me again?â
âMaybe. If we could not finish the mission the case wonât be closed. â
âCongratulation, your life is spared.â Mark seemed telling the truth. Maximilian loosened his grip.
Mark rubbed his wrist and still felt scared. What if he said anything wrong just now? What might have happened?
Cold sweat broke from his forehead.
âPlease spare me! I wonât do this again.âMark didnât care about dignity at all. Who would care dignity in the middle of nowhere?
âGo tell your Killer God, donât mess with my stuff. Otherwise, anything could happen.â This was the true reason that Maximilian didnât kill Mark. He needed Mark to pass the message to the Killer God.
âYes, sure, of course.âMark knew very well that the Killer God wouldnât stop. But if he didnât promise Maximilian today, he would die for sure.
Maximilian waved and said, âYou can leave now.â
Mark sighed with relief. He walked but kept turning his head to see whether Maximilian would regret.
When he was certain that Maximilian wouldnât call him back, he ran like a rabbit.
âWow! You are a master! Nobody can match you.â Beatrice worshipped Maximilian like a god.
If she knew what Maximilian had experienced before, she would have dropped her jaw in shock.
After reaching her home, Beatrice was reluctant to part with Maximilian. She said in a low voice, âCan I invite you for dinner someday?â
Maximilian wanted to say no but he didnât want to hurt Beatrice for she looked so sincere. He nodded halfheartedly.
Beatrice was thrilled and did a few twirls happily. She went home as happy as a child got her candy.
Maximilian felt a bit confused.
Was he really that attractive? He didnât take it seriously but others were so happy because of him?
Maximilian received Canaanâs call when he was about to drive home.
âMaster, are you available today? There will be a competition in my club today.â
Canaan invited Maximilian politely in the phone. He looked forward that Maximilian could come and visit his club.
âSure.â It was his apprenticeâs racing club. He as Canaanâs master should go and take a look.
âThatâs great master. I will be waiting for you. Donât be too late.â Canaan hanged up the phone happily.
It was quite convenient for Maximilian to drop by Canaanâs club on the way back.
âCanaan, why so excited.â One of Canaanâs rich friends asked curiously.
Canaan said proudly, âMy master is visiting the club today. I am so happy.â
âYour master? Must be good at driving.â Those rich guys began to gossip.
Canaan bragged, âOf course! If my master ranked the second place, nobody dares to claim himself the winner!â
The rich guys trusted without any doubts. Canaan was called the racing prince in H City. His master must be one in a million.
âYou must be kidding me, loser,â someone said abruptly. It was a young man dressed in red from a wealthy family.
Hearing somebody talking about his past, Canaan felt embarrassed, âRaylee John, things changed.
How about a rematch?â
Canaan was not acting on impulse. He was quite confident. Even though he didnât learn everything from Maximilian, he still had learned quite a lot.
âSure. But I am afraid you will be too scare to lose. You could not win even if your master is here.â
Raylee said arrogantly.
âClam down Canaan. He is the No.1 racer in H City.â Canaanâs rich friends tried to persuade him.
Racing prince still ranked lower than No.1 racer.
Maximilian was a god in Canaanâs eyes. He was beyond reach and could not be blasphemed. Rayleeâs insult made Canaanâs face darken. He needed to win for Maximilian, âWho told you that I wonât race with you? Letâs do it.â
âOK, one match and for all.â Raylee said scornfully with his arms crossed.
Canaan won the match andRaylee looked crestfallen.
Raylee didnât know why he lost. Canaan lost to him just a few months ago. It would need a long time for Canaan to catch up with him.
It has only been a few months and Canaanâs skill improved drastically. Was his master really that good?
Canaan was thrilled that he won. The unhappiness of losing the match a few months ago vanished. He said, âAre you convinced now?â
âYou!â Raylee was familiar with this feeling. He gritted his teeth with rage. Suddenly someone familiar appeared. A joyful look appeared onRayleeâs face, âMaster! Why are you here?â
A middle aged man in his thirties strode in. The man looked quite handsome and he scolded at Raylee, âWhat a shame!â
âRacing Master!Magnus!â The crowd cried out.
