Chapter 314 314: Destruction.

Leo subjugated the crazy noble, but at the same time, his rage was increasing. He didn't want to kill Harry, he wanted to make sure that this guy suffers. He wanted him to beg for death, and even then Leo didn't want to kill him. As he was thinking about what to do with Harry, Markus and his men entered the mansion....

Markus rushed through the gates, and found Leo's bike parked on the side, and there was a corpse on the side. His teammate checked and shook his head, before he replied, "Boss, you did a good thing when you asked Milo to block all signals from this place."

Markus shook his head and replied, "They still could have called for help with a sat-phone, but since the place is barren locate the survivors and also find the President. However, don't you all dare to approach him or to stop him. His temper is like nothing I've ever seen before. I am not sure if he would spare anyone who stands in his way. Get moving."

The people nodded and they all went inside, only to be shocked. Leo had massacred the people guarding the mansion with his machete. The people brought by Markus found limbs and heads detached from the bodies.

This caused them to shiver, even though they were mercenaries, they never saw such brutality. They have killed people but such a sight where the person was killed in one or two attacks and all of them cleanly decapitated. Markus walked through the walkway and he was shocked as well.

As they reached the back of the house, Markus found Leo holding Harry from his neck as the man bled and appeared sluggish. Markus gulped, he could see an arm detached from Harry's body as he held the bloody machete in his mouth. What was cruel, this was cruel. Leo treated Harry with such inhumanity that Markus didn't think the former was capable of.

Suddenly, as if sensing something Leo turned over to look at Markus, and hooked his finger to call the man over. Markus walked over, and Leo asked, "What should I do with him? I want to torment his soul and make the world know that none should make a move against me. However, I will be caught and imprisoned if I do that. What do you think I should do?"

Markus shivered and shook his head before he said, "I don't know what to do, Sir."

Leo took a deep breath and then his gaze fell on the huge mansion behind him. He asked, "Was anyone inside?"

Markus shook his head and replied, "He seemed to have given all the servants a day off."

Leo nodded, and asked, "If the people investigate, would they find us coming here?"

Markus shook his head and replied, "I have taken care of that."

Leo hummed softly before he said, "Take this old man, and dump all the bodies in the house. All over the place, clean the scene, no blood, no bullet casings. Everything inside the walls, and this hand also. Plant them inside, make it look like there was a fire, destroy the fucking mansion. I want it to burn so fast that even if someone comes, they could not find anything. The world should think that Harry Shrine has died."

Markus nodded but then he looked at Leo as the young man said, "Take this guy, save his life, and move him to the Clover Nation. I will continue to torment him there. I want him to realize that sometimes, death is the ultimate luxury."

Markus nodded in understanding before he delegated the task to his men, and they were all very efficient on handling the tasks. Within an hour the scene was clean and they had even planted it all inside the house. It looked like a party had gone wrong. Leo inspected the place and then said, "Go on, burn it down, the sun is about to come up."

That said, he turned and left the place, while Markus nodded in understanding and they set the place of fire, and just so that nobody finds what happened here they disabled the fire alarms, and as they left the house, there was a huge explosion.

BOOM!

Markus watched the mansion catch fire, and then he got in the car to leave the place. Leo didn't ride the bike anymore, he needed to change his clothes before he went to the hospital and met Lily, otherwise it would catch the eyes of lots of people in the surroundings.

Leo didn't want to waste his effort like this, Markus got him a fresh pair inside the car, and only then did Leo went back to the hospital. Markus had bribed a few people to create a foolproof alibi for Leo just in case someone came looking for him.

Leo went up to the room where Lily was resting, and he found Zeenat sitting on the side, the woman saw Leo entering the room, and she stood up before greeting him. Leo nodded and then sat down on the stool closest to the bed, before he asked, "Did she wake up earlier?"

Zeenat shook her head and Leo nodded as he rested his forehead against the bed and held Lily's hand. In his mind, the system said, 'Ping: You have completed the task of punishing those who dared to harm your daughter. As a circumstantial reward you are given, Evade Detection Card. Using this card will make sure that nobody even thinks if your involvement in this matter.'

Leo said, 'Use the card.'

System replied, 'Ping: Command accepted, using the Evade Detection Card.'

That was it, Leo didn't bother to confirm the situation with the system, and closed his eyes to rest a little, when he sensed movement on the bed. He raised his head and found that Lily has woken up and she smiled at him as she said, "Baba, I am hungry. Can I get some food?"

Leo nodded and replied with a smile, "Yes, my darling. Baba will get you some soup."

He stood up and went to make her some soup with Zeenat to stand and watch over Lily. Leo could tell that the stress on her brain had been alleviated greatly and she was recovering soon.

...

While Leo was making a soup, the city was boiling. The government was shaken, they didn't expect that a high level foreigner would be attacked like this inside the Capital city. The cops made arrest and many corrupt people came to light. Turns out inside the city there was an underworld network that dealt with weapons and drugs.

Raids were conducted and a special fast track court was arranged, meanwhile the media was waiting outside the Crown Hospital to see if Lily was okay, they have received the information from their sources at the embassy and the eyewitnesses. They all wanted to find out if Lily was fine, if not then the matter would escalate even more.

The Grimm Family had refused from commenting on the situation of the little girl and they urged the authorities to locate the culprit behind this. After the nightly crackdown, it was just a few minutes before dawn someone came forward with a lead that tracked back to the Shrine family young master. This man have been in contact with the Crimson Scorpio mercenaries.

That lead the department to send a team to the Shrine Mansion in the city to investigate and fetch a summon to appear at the police station, but what followed was a distress and backup call. The media moguls found another angle to gain ratings and the star reporters were dispatched to deliver the news from the spot, Live.

...

Stefan Grimm was sitting on the couch, with a glass of whiskey in his hand, his wife had already gone to sleep and his daughter was sitting beside him looking at the TV with a shocked expression on her face. She looked at her father and asked, "Did Leo..."

Stefan Grimm opened her eyes wide and glared at her with an enraged expression. Margaret understood what he meant. They were nobles and they were scrutinized by a lot of people, even the servants. Stefan Grimm said, "Mister Highle, get a glass of wine for Young Miss."

The steward bowed and left to fetch a glass of wine, when Stefan said, "I feel bad for Leo, he has done us all a great favor. Yet, his daughter touched death and came back. It was because of them that the city police was forced to take out the underworld. Yet, they act as if they have made a great contribution. How can such a network run under their nose without them having any information? Are they cops or dumb chickens?"


Margaret understood that her father was agreeing to her thoughts. He did affirm that it was Leo who did this. Even though they knew, they couldn't just make comments without proof because Leo had done them great favor.

Stefan sipped his drink as he thought, 'Good riddance for that Shrine family plague to have died.'

Leo didn't only destroy Shrine Mansion, but also the underworld of the Crown City.
