In the red-brick house, the man with braids arrived at the door leading to a room.
The room was enormous, but the curtains were tightly drawn, blocking all sources of light. There were several huge sofas in the room, and a wooden table was placed in the middle of the sofas.
There were many bottles of beer, some packets of powder, and some snacks on the table.
In the corner of the room were two huge audio systems, blasting out music.
Many men and women swayed their bodies to the beat passionately, making the room look like a club.
However, just as everyone was in high spirits, the urgent knocking on the door halted the excitement. The man with braids rushed into the room.
In an instant, everyone turned their attention to him as they cursed him out.
"Dunn, what are you doing? You're killing the vibe."
"Dunn, what the f*ck? Don't you know the rules?"
"Why have you returned so soon?"
Dunn ignored the curses and rushed through the crowd. He stood before a burly man who looked to be around forty, who was covered in tattoos. "Zaccur, something happened."
"What's wrong? Did you complete the task I assigned you?" Zaccur asked in a deep voice.
Dunn's expression darkened. He shook his head as he answered in a low voice, "Boss, I'm sorry. There was an accident during the task."
"An accident? That means that you haven't completed it!" Zaccur grunted coldly as his expression fell.
"Boss, something really did happen. We ran into..." Dunn tried his best to explain himself.
However, the others didn't offer him the chance to defend himself as they started mocking him.
"Dunn, stop making excuses. Boss has given you a chance. If you can't grasp it well yourself, what other excuses are you looking for?"
"Douglas is an old man in his 60s, and you can't even deal with him. Are you even qualified to be in the Devil Tone?"
"Dunn, just admit your mistake."
Zaccur raised his hand and everyone immediately fell silent. He then turned to Dunn and said, "Do you know how important this task is to us? A big shot has assigned this to us, but you're telling me that you didn't complete it. Hence, tell me, how should we deal with this now?"
Fear was written all over Dunn's face as he pleaded for mercy. "Boss, I know how important this task was, but we encountered a martial artist from Asia when we were trying to attack Douglas. He's really powerful and we couldn't even touch him."
"One against ten, and you guys couldn't take him down? Dunn, are you trying to say that you're a piece of trash, or that the Devil Tone is trash?"
"Dunn, that's not how you came up with excuses. You should at least come up with something realistic!"
"Boss, I'm telling the truth. That martial artist managed to take us on all alone, and he could even catch bullets with his bare hands. I couldn't even hurt him with a gun," Dunn tried to explain himself.
Everyone immediately began mocking him even more after listening to him.
