บท 648: As Easy As It Gets (1)

"You? Someone as weak as you is working with the cult?" Ashton rolled his eyes. "Even that changes nothing. I was going to kill before, and I will do it still. Besides, if those fuckers knew about me, they would be rushing to earth with everything at their disposal."

"You should not threaten someone lightly, boy," the leader barked, but Ashton cut him off.

"Oh, believe me, I don't give out threats recklessly like yourself. When I say I'll kill someone, I commit to it."

The tension reached its breaking point in the heart of the Conundrum's hidden forest base. The leader of the Conundrum was fed up with Ashton's intrusion and decided to confront him head-on.

The leader charged at Ashton with a roar, his fists clenched and muscles bulging. He swung a powerful punch, aiming to catch Ashton off guard. 

But Ashton, his senses honed through countless training sessions with Flintmace and Vulcan, effortlessly sidestepped the attack.
