“Tell us where they are, and we will get going.”
The Ruthless Four got ready to initiate their mission.
“I'll send someone to bring you guys there.”
Upon saying that, Freddy clapped, and the man in a suit from earlier on came in.
“Bring the Ruthless Four to finish off those people. Make sure you check...”
The man nodded in affirmation as he received orders from Freddy. When Freddy was finally done, the man turned toward the Ruthless Four, saying, “Follow me.”
The Ruthless Four went along with him toward Jared and the others' rooms.
“There is a man and a woman in this room,” the man in a suit explained to the assassins. “As for the other two rooms right in front, there are people standing guard at the doors. You guys can play by ear as long as you do away with all six of them—four men and two women. There's no one else on this cruise ship.”
The head of the Ruthless Four, Alpha, glanced at the rooms in front of them, thinking hard. “We'll start here.”
The rest agreed, and they immediately set to action. They held their breath and stealthily opened the door.
Inside the room, Jared and Lizbeth were lying on the bed without a single movement.
Jared was sleeping on the side of the bed that was closer to the door while Lizbeth slept on the inside.
“Gamma, you take these two. I realized you've gotten a little soft recently. You're an assassin. You can't keep letting your emotions get the better of you,” Alpha said.
Gamma nodded quietly, pulling out his knife. He gritted his teeth and thrust his knife in full force toward Jared.
Clang!
A loud clash of metallic collisions resounded in the room. Gamma's knife gave off sparks of fire at the impact.
The four were startled. Gamma was especially disquieted.
When he took a closer look at his weapon, his eyes widened in disbelief. What? My knife became blunt?
“ I -1 s he even human? What is he made of?”
