Chapter 342 - 342: You Asked For It (1/2)
Voices came into an abrupt halt, heads turning to the direction of the loud sound of wood groaning as the double doors of the conference room were opened.
Two figures stood by the door frame for a second before striding. Their ambiance were cold, dark, and intimidating.
The kind that makes even a veteran Underworld dweller's knees to buckle in terror, as these two were literal devils on earth.

”Welcome back, boss.” The Elder greeted in sync at the white-clad woman with the phoenix mask, before those who were a bit close to the recently recruited Elder, Silver Dragon, casually greeted him next.
Drunk Python and Blood Venom frantically stood up when they realized that the big boss lady has arrived, along with their boss man.
Drunk Python didn't know Ethan's new alias, nor what his new look was going to be. He just presumed that the man standing beside the Lady Boss was him, considering that's the most plausible answer.

”Yes, boss. And we have already answered most of his queries as well.”
”Very good. Allow me to take over from here, White Crow.”
Elliot bowed and sat down.
Lillie crossed her legs and rested her curled hands on her knees. ”As per usual, two of our Elders are absent. But they had already been briefed of the plan for the next course of action. A plan in which our special guests plays the major role.”

”We had already gathered a fraction of the loyal subordinates that were under the submission of the real Vermillion Dragon. Now, I'm granting these two Commanders the responsibility to take the helm, and lead them once again.”
