The Conspiracy of the Elites

Chapter 155: stealth assassin

After so many tempering encounters and experiences throughout the years, Emily could confidently call herself a veteran. But after hearing the devastating news that was presented to her, all her anger dissipated, only despair was left behind.

Hearing the news that almost her whole family was murdered, and only those who surrendered were still alive, she completely despaired.

According to Kate, the deed was done just 2 months ago. Her grandfather refused to peacefully give away his power, so he was killed immediately. Only her father and some other relatives survived, as they read the situation well and surrendered.

Despite all the pent-up anger and rage, she came with, she couldnt muster her overwhelming 2nd rank strength again. Devastation took over her when she heard that her mother was also among the dead.

From the little she already learned, she knew that her resisting would not achieve much, as politics was involved in this, complicating things further.

As one of the ruling powers in the Western part of Madbull State, with a street named after them, the Bauer family was an undisputed hegemon in this region.

Though their rise in power just started a few decades ago after the great battle of supremacy, their foundation was still solid. Their rapid rise was mainly a result of Duke Bauers talent in the military commanding field.

As a veteran soldier of the Ratliff military, though he could not achieve the much-coveted breakthrough. His great talent in the commanding field completely offset this disadvantage.

As a man who led numerous winning battles that involved warships, he could already be referred to as a legend of the Ratliff republic.

Though he was already retired, his exploits during his active days brought him a lot of fame, renown, and money. He singlehandedly propped his family to the heights it was today.

Being the patriarch and the main supporter of the Bauer family, he took the building of his family seriously. After so many years, he succeeded in making the family extremely strong and highly respected.

To his fortune, the talent of his eldest son stabilized their hold as the hegemon of this region. Ark Bauer took after his fathers talents. But instead of being a commander, he was a soldier.

He was the only 3rd rank high-grade soldier of the Bauer family. His individual power helped prop it up and also helped stabilize its power.

He was the only soldier of the Bauer family that was able to escape during the sabotage conspiracy, after a long, draining, and drawn-out battle.

Though the Bauer family had a lot of power, so was the power of their enemies and rivals also. Their closest and fiercest rival, the Rivaldo family instigated the calamity that befell them.

They allied with a fellow large family, which was also a rival of the Bauer family. Despite this, the enormous power of the Bauer family could not be toppled so easily. They succeeded only because of the secret help of the Madbull state leaders.

The Ratliff republic was a country that put a lot of importance on controlling its subordinates. They didnt want any subordinate to grow too strong, so they either eliminate or trim anyone that was attempting to grow too strong.

This foolish and narrow-minded leadership mindset displayed why they are still where they are today.

In a country like the Spartan republic, such nonsense can never be instigated. Not when the legendary slaughterer was still sitting on the presidency seat.

If you misbehave, no matter how strong you are, the Spartan legend did not mind eradicating a whole large family to reinforce the deep notions of the Spartan republic that were enacted during its creation.

Hehe, Emily, I didnt think that you would make it out of the dangerous Mediterranean Sea. And you actually had the guts to come back to the Ratliff republic. Well, Ill just get a new pet then.

It was at this moment that a light-skinned young man finally entered the office, with loud but evil laughter emerging from his grinning lips. As soon as he entered, a battalion of soldiers followed him in immediately.

Leon Rivaldo, the one and only heir of the Rivaldo family. Being the only heir to such a large family, he was naturally cocky. The latest victory of his family inflated his ego more, he now became super cocky.

For long, he already had a crush on the two Bauer daughters. After their fall, he directly demanded to get the 2 girls as his new play girls. But he was disappointed, as he later heard that Emily already died in the Sea.

He was angry and disappointed in hearing that, but he consoled himself with the fact that one of the sisters was still left behind.

That was why Kate could still come to work, despite all her remaining family members being in prison. As long as she behaved well, Leon would still allow her to pursue her profession.

Her teary face turned incredibly strained, as the spoiled boy reached her side and groped her on her backside.

Originally, on seeing this, Emily would have blown up immediately. But now, she could only look on with eyes that seemed soulless without any hint of hope. To her, as the government politics was involved, it was already over.

Tears rolled down her eyes, as this despicable man used her sisters body as his playground.

She didnt resist, as the soldiers who came into the office came forward to restrain her. After she was restrained, Leon finally came forward to meet her with a wider grin on his face.

He closed his eyes to enjoy the sensation, as the 2 teary sisters backsides rested on his palms. He felt like he finally got the goal he was looking for, he definitely had to thank his father in a special way.

As the soldiers restrained the 2 sisters, while the spoiled brat continued with his shameful practices. The man that remained stuck to the side, completely ignored, finally made his move.

Clark gave an order through his implant first, before activating the stealth mode of his armor. With this, his already inconspicuous self disappeared from the office room completely.

He moved cautiously, navigating through the room filled with soldiers before he finally brought out his daggers silently.

Leon was already feeling high through his originally casual actions, as he suddenly started feeling the urge to take it to the next level. His impulse became too strong, as he ordered his soldiers to restrain the sisters more tightly.

Clark finally moved at this same moment with impeccable timing. He acted fast decisively, as his invisible figure appeared behind the spoiled brat immediately.

The soldiers felt the sudden shift of the air, but before they could respond, blood suddenly blossomed, painting a beautiful red and ominous picture in the atmosphere.

Though Clark originally fought with a spear, and sometimes with a sword and gun, his dagger assassination skills were not to be trifled with either.

Taking advantage of the short distraction due to lust, he cut the throat of the spoiled brat with his daggers ruthlessly and decisively.

Gar!! Ga!! Blood spurted out of Leons neck in waves, as he held his neck tightly with panicked and widened eyes. Despite this, he could not achieve much as he slowly felt his life slipping away out of his grasp.

What?? The soldiers finally understood what happened, as alarmed expressions appeared on all their faces. But they were not given the time to react, as they started paying the price for joining the wrong side.

Whoosh!! Whoosh!! The sound of something moving rapidly in the small office room echoed repeatedly, as soldier after soldier received a clean and delicate cut to their throat.

At Clarks current level, he did not require any effort to reap the life of these ordinary soldiers.

He didnt even draw his main weapon, as with the daggers, blood flowed in his wake like he was an asura descendant.

The soldiers tried to retaliate, but their weak strength, experience, and inability to see their opponent completely rendered them helpless. They could only watch with wide eyes, as they died like chickens in the butchers den.

Clark fully displayed the power, flair, and style of an assassin that kills from the shadow as he finished all the soldiers with them not even seeing the color of his armor, in less than a minute.

Bergh!! Kate could not take the sudden change in environment calmly, as she vomited immediately on seeing the gory scene before her.

Her originally neat, white, and well-perfumed office suddenly became like the depths of an abyss. Blood and body parts now filled the room, as Clark finally came out of his stealth.

Emily only looked on with her daze, as she imprinted this scene into her head. Due to her devastated state, she already forgot that she came here with Clark.

What are you looking at? Pick up yourselves and follow me immediately, if you want to survive. He barked an order immediately on seeing them still in their pathetic states, as he started bringing his weapons from his backpack.

Emily reacted instantly on hearing his words, as she sprang up immediately. She was someone that experienced all the magic of Clark during their days in the sea. If he said they could survive, then they could. His words were law to her.

Who are you? It was at this moment that Kate finally recovered a bit, as she asked vigilantly with a wary expression on her face.

Shut up and follow me. Ask questions later. Clark impolitely barked back at her, leaving her speechless and her dignity hurt.

Emily was also surprised at Clarks harsh words, but she quickly stopped her sister from retorting back. If he was so in a rush, then it met their escape would even be a problem for him.

Kate felt wronged and angry at this impolite and harsh-tongued man, but she listened to her sister and kept quiet. To her, Clark was already the same as Leon, just different in the way they showcase their despicableness.

Following Clarks actions, Emily also started preparing for battle, as she guided her sister to start rushing outside the office, following his lead.

Kate was already resigned to die; she didnt believe that they could escape despite the strength that this soldier just displayed. She just followed her sister, because she wanted them to be together when they died.

The death of Leon would surely anger the Rivaldo patriarch. To her, their fate was already sealed.

Clark moved while most of his attention was in his implants world, as his surrounding suddenly became displayed to him in a 3d form. From what he was seeing, soldiers were already converging to this location, which meant what happened here was already discovered.

He started planning routes to take, as he began leading the 2 sisters outside. He ordered Emily to protect her sister before he unsheathed his spear.
