Both men felt an instinctual dread wash over them. They took a step back in perfect sync—their survival instincts were screaming at them to run for their lives, but it was too late.
"This is how a real punch looks, Julia," Kaiden decreed before lunging at the left one. He aimed at the exact same spot where Julia had hit him previously, namely in the jaws.
While Julia didn’t even manage to make him feel an ounce of pain, the same couldn’t be said for the recipient of Kaiden’s strike. His fist shot forward like a cannonball, connecting with the man’s jaw.
*CRACK!*
A loud crack echoed through the room—the force of the blow sent the man’s head snapping to the side. His jaw dislocated instantly, and his teeth flew out like the shrapnel of a grenade, accompanied by a mouthful of blood that splattered across the walls.
The man let out a single cry of pure agony before collapsing to his knees, clutching at his ruined face. The sheer brutality of the strike had turned his lower jaw into an unrecognizable mass of flesh and bone that hung loosely. It barely managed to remain attached to his skull.
On the bright side, the man’s agony soon ceased.
He was breathing no longer.
"Eeeek!" the other enforcer allowed a rather girly cry to escape his lips. "A-a-awakened!!!" he shouted with utter shock while backing out of the room for a few seconds, after which his nerves could take it no longer—he turned on his heels and started running for his life.
Kaiden couldn’t let the man run away and notify the others, who could gear up in preparation for him. A single leap was enough to close the distance. His 17 Agility stat was already on the level of a top-tier athlete who specialized in a field that predominantly required speed to have a successful career in.
He put his arms around the man’s neck, holding him in a chokehold that didn’t allow him to scream for help. It didn’t take Kaiden more than a couple of seconds to win their struggle—his enemy’s head limply fell to the side.
Kaiden then grabbed onto his hair, dragging him back to the room so no one would find the corpse before he could make his next move.
He closed the door behind them. The room now housed Kaiden, two corpses, and a so shocked Julia she couldn’t help but gawk at him.
As Kaiden examined his brutal handiwork, he couldn’t help but sigh. "Shit... I don’t feel even an ounce of remorse. That woman truly is my mother; her cruel blood runs in my veins."
"W-w-what?!" Julia’s sudden shout took him out of his musings.
"Where’s this Andre fellow located at? I’ll finish the job."
