Chapter 419
Lord Protector Novel
A person was seen entering the room with a quick pace.
On first glance, the person looked like a young lady with exquisite facial features, pale white skin, and a slender body.
Upon closer look, there was also hints of the person being a man. The person was wearing a suit with a parted hair. Her, or his, action was bold and unconstrained.
No one could tell right away the sudden visitorâs gender.
As a woman, the personâs face and body were the best of the best.
Conversely, if seen as a man, the person would top any male idol.
The person was the living definition of having the best of both worlds.
The only thing everyone was sure of was that they didnât know who the person was.
âHadley Murphy, why are you here?â Eclipse suddenly opened his mouth.
âTo save you all, of course,â Hadley smiled and turned to Logan. âMr. Hugh, you should at least honor my request, no?â
Logan took a deep breath with a hint of fear in his eyes. âAre you sure you want to do this?â
âWhy else would I be here?â Hadley nodded.
After pausing for a moment, Logan finally sighed. âFine. Do as you wish. But you better not do anything stupid, or youâll have the whole army on your back.â
With a wave of his hand, Logan led the soldiers out of the tea house.
Everyone was stunned and surprised as they wondered who the person was. She made Logan, someone who blatantly ignored Eclipseâs request, withdraw in such a short exchange.
Hadley was even more powerful than Eclipse.
Hadley then turned to Eclipse and smiled. âI heard my brother is dead. Isnât that too early? Iâm not even ready to take his inheritance.â
The crowd had their jaws dropped. Theyâd never heard that Hades had a sister, and such a young one at that. Hadley was even young enough to be Hadesâ granddaughter.
More importantly, Hadley showed no emotion over her brotherâs death.
It was evident that their relationship wasnât as simple as it seemed.
âSo, youâre here for the inheritance?â Eclipse snarled.
âItâs time you retire as well,â Hadley sighed. âDonât worry, Iâll take good care of this place.â
âAre you going to take it by force if I donât give it to you?â
âOf course.â
âI know youâre strong, but do you really think you can take it from me?â
âWell, who knows?â Hadley smiled. âBut I know you wonât do that. You know more than anyone here that Iâm the only one who can save Rivermouth now.â
Eclipse took a deep breath. âThis was Hadesâ lifeâs work. Iâm not letting it ruin in my hands. You better take good care of it, or else Iâm going to make Necro bleed.â
With that, Eclipse turned and left.
His action simply meant that heâd given Rivermouth to Hadley.
Yet, no one focused on that as Necroâs name still sounded in everyoneâs ears.
The biggest assassination organization.
The woman who suddenly appeared was from the Necro Group.
âLet me introduce myself.â Hadley smiled. âIâm Hadesâ sister. Everyone knows me as Pesta. Iâll be in your care.â
Everyone held their breaths at Hadleyâs nickname.
Pesta was well-known as one of the best that Necro had to offer. She had a 100% assassination success rate.
Some even alleged that Pesta could go toe-to-toe with Eclipse.
She was literally a walking nuclear weapon.
That was why Eclipse warned her to take good care of Rivermouthâs underworld.
If not, the river would be dyed red with blood in a night.
It was rare for two of the best assassins to appear in one city.
A huge change was bound to come to Rivermouth.
