He was confident that he could fight three at once while maintaining the odds, but he could not see Ethan’s movements. Had Ethan harbored murderous intent against him, he would not even have time to react. With such power, Ethan could easily fight nine men at once.
Number Three could not understand why Ethan would rely on strategy when he clearly had the strength to dominate through sheer force.
Ethan tossed the gun to Marcus and then said to Number Three, “Fighting is too inefficient. Besides, you’re not even worth me stepping outside to deal with.”
Number Three stood there, dumbfounded.
The nine of them were known assassins, mentors of not just close combat but also firearms and poison. They prided themselves on being unbeatable, no matter the target, and yet, here was Ethan, telling them they were not even worthy of his time. He did not take them seriously at all!
Number Three’s confidence shattered. The nine of them had accepted the mission with utmost confidence, only to be torn apart by Ethan’s careful scheming. Out of nine, six were died, two were permanently crippled, and he was the only one left to face Ethan.
The moment he started the fight with Ethan, he had lost, and his pride was crushed.
Ethan turned to Marcus and said, “Lock him up.”
Marcus did as he was told.
However, the next day, Ethan received news that Number Three had killed himself in the prison cell. It seemed the man had a poisonous capsule embedded in his tooth, and when he realized there was no escape, he chose to take his own life with the poison.
Marcus stared at Number Three’s body and gulped nervously. He was not afraid of the dead body but of Ethan.
Nine infamous assassins were all wiped out like that, and the strongest one of them all, Number Three, even took his own life in the prison cell.
Marcus snapped back to the present as he watched Ethan descend the stairs, his chest tightening like a heavy stone was pressing down on him. Even breathing was becoming difficult.
Andy had messed with the wrong person, and just moments ago, he had been boasting about how he was going to teach Ethan a lesson
Marcus‘ mind blanked out. Was he supposed to fight Ethan? Was it a joke?

If he could choose between fighting Ethan or running thirty kilometers with twenty kilograms on his back, he would choose running without a second thought. Fighting other military experts might end in victory or defeat, but fighting Ethan was a guaranteed loss.
Back then, there was a phrase that was circulated among his team.
“The odds of fighting your way across the state and killing the South Regent with just a small handgun would seem more plausible than beating Ethan.”
However, that was not what they fe
I most. What the
feared most was that after they lost, Ethan would make them debrief and reflect, publicly admitting how many mistakes they made and where they went wrong.
Just thinking back on those memories scared Marcus. Fear consumed him from within.
When Andy saw Ethan coming down the stairs, his eyes lit up with excitement. “Sir, this is the guy! He beat me and talked shit about you! He’s full of himself!”
Marcus quickly interjected, “Enough! Stop talking”
Andy glared at Ethan. “Did you hear that? My mentor told you to stop talking!”
However, after a beat, he blinked, realizing Ethan did not speak at all.
“Huh? He didn’t even say anything.”
Marcus gritted his teeth, saying, “I’m talking about you.”
“Huh?” Andy widened his eyes in shock.
He had gotten his mentor there to avenge him, so why was his mentor telling him to stop talking?
He looked at Marcus in disbelief. Was that really the same mentor he looked
up
to?
Ethan sat down and said, “Have a seat.
Andy was about to snap back, saying, “Who wants to sit on your stupid couch…”
However, he then saw his mentor forcing an apologetic smile and nervously sitting down at the edge of the couch, a clear sign of distress.
