Chapter 163 - competition

Seraphina and Dragon were dilly-dallying around their 'home' for the last 6 days. Today, it was Seraphina's last day of her vacation yet, it seems it was a normal day for them.

Reposing at the comfortable sofa, Seraphina finished her ch_i_p_s and throw it on the floor -- joining the scattered empty opened bag of ch_i_p_s.

Since Dragon had an emergency call, he abruptly left her with lots of snacks and beer. Though he wanted her to drink wine instead, but since she seems to take a liking to that kind of liquor, he ordered a whole box of beer for her as a bribe.

He was uncertain if she will keep her promise to behave just like the last time, alas, his presence in the organization was badly needed. Thus, no matter how reluctant he was, he must leave her.

"Damn, bo -- ring…" Seraphina mumbles. For some reason, seeing the box of beer, it makes her want to vomit, probably because she had enough of that majestic man-made creation.

She wasn't in the mood for drinks as she only wants to have Dragon as her company. Thinking his majestic profile, Seraphina felt gloomy.

Today, she decided to break-up with him since she was going back to her dark world.

"Ryu…" She called out along with her sigh. At first, she took a liking to him because he was exceptionally handsome. Though Uno and Rex's visuals are good, Dragon's looks, on the other hand, is incomparable.

Then, after her second encounter with him, she likes his tenderness and warmth. After that, the days she spent with him gave her the feeling that she didn't know it exists.

She might have always sound mischievous and insincere but in reality, she really likes him. Since she never experienced love for a man, she didn't dare think about it. After all, their relationship starts too fast and would inevitably end soon.

'Damn Luciano' she cursed inwardly recalling the life she was living now. If it wasn't for that man Luciano, she might have lived the life of a normal 22-year-old woman.

Suddenly, she heard her phone rang which snapped her from her stupor. Answering the phone call, X youthful voice was the first she heard.

"Boss! We did it! We acquired the blueprints you picked. Woah ~ this is actually good news!"

"Good. I'll see you in a few days." With her said piece, she hangs up. Since she modified her phone herself, her voice through the other line sounded like a cute uncirc_u_mcised voice of her Luciano disguise.

"Master, it seems like it was Luciano's doing, again." Max spoke in a stern manner.

"Luciano… again." He mumbles. Dragon's face was devoid of emotion and even Max couldn't discern what his master was thinking.

"Master, what should we do? It seems like that Don was deliberately messing with you." Max speculated.

"That's very unlikely." Dragon nonchalantly answered. Since this certain blueprints will go through different people before it lands in his hand. Hence, his involvement in this transaction wasn't known.

"I must commend the current Luciano…" Dragon states with a smirk.

Max was baffled what his master meant. Luciano indirectly messed with them a few times. Alas, Dragon never wages a war with him nor messed with him in return. Though the reason was unknown, based on his master's power, he could fight Luciano fair and square or rather, he could annihilate him in a single night. But why won't he?

"Max, don't be naive. Though my influence is known as vast -- Luciano, on the other hand, wasn't disclosed. No one really knew how great influence he holds in the underground. He cannot interrupt me from time to time if he doesn't have enough skillful men, can he?" Dragon's tone was rather amused with the mysterious mafia Don. He added,

"In my opinion, Luciano and I shared the same interest. He acquired the god's eye and I obtain the devil's eye. In some way, I also interrupted his previous transaction -- unknowingly."

Max was rendered speechless by the words his master spatted. It's rare for his master to say tons of words which he shouldn't be a concern about.

Though both organizations weren't connected in any way -- In retrospect, Luciano seems to gain some respect from Dragon which is very odd. Shouldn't Dragon be offended by the headache Luciano is giving him?

However, Max trusts Dragon's judgment, thus, whether he mark Luciano's head or not, he must have his reason.

"I like this competition between us. Max, make sure to secure the next transaction." Dragon grins dangerously as if he turned to another person.
