"What's wrong, Advisor Shane?" Charlie didn't know what happened, and he had no idea what Kingsley had just thrown.
At this moment, Kenny's call was picked up. A tough voice resonated from the other side of the phone, saying, "Hello? Advisor Shane?" However, Kenny just sat there blankly as though his soul had left his body.
Charlie didn't know what was happening, but he shouted, "Call the brothers up, Advisor Shane! Once we let him escape, there won't be a chance as great as this to threaten Keene!"
The person on the other side of the phone had seemingly heard Charlie's shouting, so he yelled, "Advisor wants us to go up! Everybody! Grab your weapons!"
With all this happening around him, Kenny still turned a deaf ear and remained glassyeyed.
"Advisor Shane?" Charlie tried calling him again, but he was still not responding.
Just then, Kingsley blew a wreath of smoke and said, "There's no point in calling him, for he won't dare to open his mouth n anymore.
"What do you mean?" Startled, Charlie felt something wasn't right in an instant. A moment ago, he was in his own world, fantasizing about how he'd toy with Keene without realizing the sudden change in Kenny's expression. He finally caught on and noticed that there was a problem.
"What is going on—" Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Kenny sliding down from the couch gradually as though he had lost his bones. Thud! Almost immediately, Kenny had his knees on the floor, kneeling before Kingsley!
At this moment, Charlie was completely dumbfounded. Boss Jarett's number one combat advisor, who could influence the whole underworld of Solaris Province with a stamp of his, was kneeling before someone! Even worse, that someone was a young man in his twenties!
"What's going on? Advisor Shane, what's wrong with you? He's just an orphan! Why are you kneeling—"
"Shut up!" Before Charlie could finish his sentence, Kenny yelled at him furiously with reddened eyes, cutting him off.
Charlie was speechless; he was in total confusion and had no idea what was going on.
Just then, Kenny held up the Northern Draken Tag respectfully and walked on his knees to approach Kingsley. Then, he presented the tag to the latter with both his hands and said, "You are... This tag—" He was so shaken up that he was rambling in a shaky voice.
"It doesn't matter who I am." Kingsley gave him a cold stare. "What matters is that you planned on detaining me and threatening Keene, right?"
Kenny's face paled at once upon hearing that, for whoever possessed the Northern Draken Tag was the underworld king in the Northern Underworld of Qustia! For an ordinary person like him, attempting to hold the king hostage was a death wish.
"I-I dare not—" Just then, Kenny raised his hand and slapped himself.
"I spoke impulsively!" Slap!
"I shall be punished!" Slap!
!! T § N
I was wrong!
Slap! He slapped himself mercilessly after every sentence.
Meanwhile, Charlie became terrified and confused as he watched the scene unfold from the side. From what he saw, Kingsley had thrown something at Kenny before the latter immediately went insane. "W-What kind of black magic is this?!" He sat behind the broken desk while trembling.
At this moment, more than ten stalwart men flooded into the room from the corridor. Some of them were holding wooden sticks while others held batons, but all of them had a vicious look on their faces. Once they saw the shattered door of the president's office, they knew something was up at once, so they bellowed, "Advisor!"
