"You really love the word emergency." Lyca mused before she stood and smiled. "What are we still waiting for? Tell Lai Su to do security protocol 101. I will meet him inside the house."
"You wanted us to release poisonous gases? What about you? Do you want to kill yourself?" Rue who was following Ronan asked. Protocol 101 is basically releasing some gas inside the house. These were really poisonous and could kill someone in seconds. How could they activate something like this while Lyca was seeing this man? "You aren't planning on killing yourself, right?" Rue asked. "Right?"
"You no longer look cool," Lyca answered Rue before she shrugged. "Just release it if his people would try something. Tell everyone to go as far away as possible. I won't be able to save them in case they inhale something poisonous. Unlike her, Shen Qui's men don't have a way to expel this poison to their bodies. Moreover, Lyca wasn't the type to create antidotes, after all, most of these poisons didn't undergo any human testing. She had no way to creating an antidote that would surely work.
The twins look at Lyca then into the still frozen Cleo before they followed Lyca's instructions. It didn't take too long before the whole ranch became armed and ready to receive Lord Olfan and his people.
#####################################################################
Despite being almost forty years old, this Lord Olfan still looked good.
This was Lyca's initial observation about the man who was elegantly sitting across her. He was tall, taller than her Shen Qui. His shoulders are broader too. However, Lyca felt that this mature looking guy was totally not something that she would want. Her type was definitely the fresh college graduate looking Shen Qui. "Q is not available right now." Lyca was the first one who broke the silence before she eyed the two men standing behind Lord Olfan.
Despite, looking so imposing with his gray tux and shiny dark shoes, Lord Olfan still had his bodyguard standing next to him. It was like he was afraid that the small woman in front of him would suddenly attack him or something.
"I am not here for Q," As expected, even the man's voice sounded divine too. It was deep and but not scary. In fact, this voice reminded Lyca of her father. Almost immediately, sadness flashed in Lyca's eyes before she smiled. She actually missed her parents. This should be enough motivation for her to finish these hardworking days in this city so she could finally see them again!
"Then are you here to kill us?" Lyca asked, her straightforward tone surprised the older Lord. He chuckled in response before shaking his head.
"I have never met someone who asked me that question and survived until the next day." He calmly said before he took a sip of the hot tea in front of him. He eyed the surrounding and ignored Lyca's expression from his blatant threat. "This place is rather shabby for someone like Q. I presume there is an underground fortress beneath this place?" They are currently inside a two-story house made of wood. Even the flooring was made of old wood that would occasionally make a sound every time they move. Moreover, the place doesn't really look like it had been occupied at all. It was clean, too clean.
"Mr. Collazo," Lyca said, her face wasn't showing a hint of fear or anger. "I presume, you are here to discuss something?" she asked. "I am a very busy person, I will give you five minutes to say whatever it is that you want to say. Or you can leave."
"You— " This time, the man standing to Lord Olfan's left pointed at Lyca. "Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to the boss like that? You are nothing but a puny mistress and you are acting as the real boss? Take us to see Q! Or have him see us! What kind of man would actually hide behind his woman's skirt? Such a coward!"
Lyca lifted an eyebrow at the man as she waited for him to stop talking. "Is this how you train your dogs?" she asked the Lord. "They are barking and barking. Are they trying to die?"
As expected, the Lord's face changed when he heard Lyca's words. "I am here to cooperate. But it seems that Miss Xi— or shall I call you Miss Huang is currently not in the mood to talk about things calmly. This makes me wonder if Miss Huang wants to be our enemy." Lord Olfan's tone was calm which seemed to be the exact opposite of his cold and sharp gaze that bored towards Lyca.
"Boss, if you want I can take care of this woman! Such arrogance! This territory is new! Q is wounded and instead of asking for our help, she is threatening to kill— " the man wasn't able to complete his words as he suddenly held his neck. He opened his mouth, his eyes wide as he tried to utter another word. "Babababa" sadly, those were the only words that he was able to say. "Bababa— "
"If your dog will keep barking, the next part of his body that would become numb is his brain." Lyca smiled. This time, she sipped her tea without removing her gaze away from the Lord. She could sense that Lord Olfan already knew that she was the one who killed that stupid Ghost Rider. And that is the reason why the man didn't just instruct his men to attack this base.
Lord Olfan must have been trying to measure their current strength!
"You actually harmed my men," the man sneered. "How bold."
Lyca only responded with a low chuckle. She wasn't the type to act against someone who is simply not worth it. However, this man actually insulted Shen Qui. How could she allow other people to insult her husband? In her mind, insulting her husband is clearly insulting her choice too! "Five minutes is almost up old man." She sent a provoking smile at the now silent guard before meeting Lord Olfan's eyes.
"I heard that your methods are different. But I never thought that you would be this illogical." Lord Olfan sneered. Of course, he understood where Lyca's confidence comes from. It was because they are currently in her territory. "You know, Miss Huang. Sometimes, being too aggressive is not the best choice in this field of work. But I will forgive you once as this is only because of your inexperience."
Lyca had to stop herself from laughing at the man's words. She couldn't help but wonder if this man was high or he was just that confident that he would be able to intimidate Lyca. If this type of confidence worked in his previous enemies, then it only meant that those people were too weak! In the end, Lyca only shook her head. "The door is wide open, Mr. Collazo. I won't see you out."
"Bababab!" The guard tried to say something but his neck and tongue were already numbed. "Ba— "
"Stop it, Steven." Lord Olfan interrupted him as his expression turned serious. "I am here to talk about Ghost Rider's Territory. I want to seize it. Right now, there are four territories in this city. I want us to kill his whole family while we divide the territory for ourselves."
For a few seconds, Lyca blinked at him without saying anything. Did this man actually dare to threaten her before saying that he wanted to cooperate with her? "Mr. Collazo… I have a question."
"Hm?"
"Are you awake?" Lyca asked.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"You really love the word emergency." Lyca mused before she stood and smiled. "What are we still waiting for? Tell Lai Su to do security protocol 101. I will meet him inside the house."
