Chapter 39: A Bunch of Cowards
"Ah! Slowly!" Eric shouted to the nurse who was cleaning the wound.
"Please don't move." The nurse said.
Meanwhile, a young man in his 20s hung up on him and threw himself on the sofa.
"Brother, come with me!"
"What is it, Örn? Where do you want to take me?" Asked the bald man.
"Hahaha. This time we don't go to play but to work. My friend asked me to beat someone up and he'll give me 25 million when we're finished with him."
"Gah! Nice job you got there."
"I'm serious bro, please trust this to me. We will use the money to drink all night long!"
"Long live brother Örn!"
The group of thugs immediately left for the Alverion company.
It didn't take long for the thugs to arrive at the largest corporate building in the city. The security guard was shocked when he saw a group of rude-looking men coming. One of them immediately intercepted them and one of the thugs said to the officer, "I just want to meet one of the people from this company, I'll take my leave once we're done with our business."
The security guards could not prevent them from entering but they also had their own preparations. They immediately told the people inside to get ready to press the alarm button if something happened.
After they entered, one of them asked the woman in the lobby.
"Hey, is there someone named Ryan in this company?" His harsh voice startled the woman. When she noticed the looks and clothes that this group of people were wearing, she immediately panicked.
"May I help you?" Her voice trembled a little.
"I don't need your help, I just want to meet one person. Just call that Ryan." Örn said in an angry tone.
After Örn yelled at the woman, the security guards were on standby from outside and it seemed that someone had also come from above.
"I'm sorry sir. If you can't explain why you came here, I can't help you. " When he heard this, Örn became angry. Just as he was about to snap again, his cellphone rang. It turned out to be Eric!
"You can go straight to the 9th floor." Eric said.
The Örn glared at the woman and walked towards the elevator. When security forces tried to prevent it, they got a call from Eric.
"They are prospective security officers who came to conduct interviews. Let them come up to see me." Eric explained in a calm tone.
When the security guard heard what the personnel manager had to say, there was no way they could argue with him. Örn and his friends finally got on the elevator and headed for the 9th floor.
When they were on the 9th floor, they were immediately greeted by Eric.
"Where is the person you want to beat up?" Asked Örn, "I want to finish this immediately and take my money."
"Don't worry. The money is already in my hands." Eric immediately explained, "He's on this floor and his name is Ryan. I have pulled back the security guards on this floor so you can rampage to your heart's content."
While they were chatting, Ryan came out of his room and saw this crowd of people. He then approached them.
"Ah! There he is." Eric's eyes immediately turned red. Since he hadn't been to the hospital yet, his wounds were still not fully cared for even though the company's clinic had provided first aid.
"Oh?" Örn and his friends walk over to Ryan.
Some perfume experts also came out with Ryan. When they saw this crowd of people, they immediately turned around and headed for his room again. They were still traumatized by the previous incident.
Ryan had now been surrounded.
"So you're Ryan?" Örn said while checking Ryan from top to bottom.
Ryan didn't even answer this question. He focused more on Eric who was behind them. He then laughed loudly. When he heard this laughter, Eric got goosebumps for some reason.
"Oh, you don't seem so good at memorizing people's faces that you don't know which one you're looking for." Ryan casually said.
"Damn, you didn't answer my question earlier." Örn was already feeling angry and kicked Ryan, but strangely his leg quickly swung back.
"Hahahaha so you came here just looking for something?" Ryan shook his head, "I'm not in a good mood, so I was originally too lazy to deal with you."
"Gah, you think you have a choice? Beat him!" Örn was impatient and told his comrades to charge at Ryan.
Suddenly, everyone took out their knives and lunged at Ryan. The man then quickly disappeared into thin air and dealt with his enemies at lightning speed. He seemed to be clenching his fists. Even before taking three steps, one of these thugs was already flying. The person next to him even floated as well when he turned to his friend.
Ryan elbowed the person behind him until he broke his nose. He added a heavy slap to the man's temple until he passed out. Then he took that person's knife and threw it at someone else. The knife immediately stuck in his arm!
Though it seemed that Ryan had been surrounded, their situation was like a wolf in a chicken coop. With divine speed, each step sent a person flying. These thugs couldn't even touch the hem of Ryan's shirt.
Ryan then flew high and lunged down. Five people collapsed in pain as he landed to the ground again.
"Looks like you don't bring enough people." Ryan said this to Eric who watched from behind.
Eric was really scared to see him. His legs were limp and his mouth was dry, "You…. You're not human!"
Örn was lying on the floor and immediately stood up, "Don't be so full of yourself yet! I called my eldest brother to get you!"
"Ah! That means your leader, huh?" Ryan said, "Then I might as well take care of you all so I don't have to bother looking anymore. Do you have his number? Do you want me to call now? Or do you bring your own phone?"
"Just keep on reading, and then you will know the taste when he's here!" Örn immediately retreated and took out his cellphone.
Shortly thereafter, the call was accepted, "Brother! Help me, we've all been beaten by someone."
Örn then suddenly laughed at Ryan. The thugs lying on the floor immediately took a step back and gathered around the Örn.
"Is your eldest brother strong?" Eric asked.
"Eldest brother is the toughest person I know!" Örn said in a cold tone, "Don't worry, my elder brother is already one of the masters of darkness in this city! Nobody can walk straight when they hear his name."
Hearing Örn's confidence, Eric felt relieved. He felt like he had also regained his confidence and said to Ryan, "You just watch in a moment!"
"Don't kneel down for mercy when my eldest brother comes and knocks you to death." Örn also added. The thugs, who at first seemed helpless, immediately cheered when they knew that their leader was coming.
"Ryan, if you give Irina to me then I can prevent this from happening." Eric said.
Ryan even yawned, "Hoaam! I like weak people like you guys, you guys are good at joking. Hey bring me a chair."
The perfumer peeking from the room was still standing stiff when she saw the whole scene. After Ryan spoke to her, she just woke up from her shock. She immediately brought a chair for Ryan.
The man then took a seat, looked at the clock and said casually, "Ten minutes. I give you ten minutes to wait for your reinforcements. If your leader doesn't come in ten minutes, I will kill you all and throw your corpses on the side of the road." After that, Ryan closed his eyes.
Örn's expression changed slightly. He then shouted out loud, "We'll see if you can still talk like that or not!"
Eric also added, "I know you're just pretending to be calm! In a moment we'll see who will laugh!"
Ryan didn't care and remained silent.
After ten minutes passed, Ryan opened his eyes, "Time is up."
Seeing Ryan standing up, Örn immediately panicked. However, there was the sound of numerous footsteps coming from behind.
Everyone from Örn's group had come! The thugs immediately cheered and shouted at Ryan, "Die you bastard! All of our people have come, don't expect to come home alive!"
Ryan frowned. From the direction of the elevator, a man in a black suit wearing black glasses headed toward them. The aura he emitted was different from these people. The man sighed when he saw him. That person's appearance was pretty cool, should he come next time at a critical time wearing clothes like that?
"Brother!" Örn immediately approached his eldest brother. Then the person said, "What's wrong with you guys?"
Seeing the new person appear made Eric breathe freely, 'Get rekt, Ryan!'
