Roar of the Supreme Warrior
Chapter 492

Jay could not do anything but obey his orders.

He had to listen to James or he'd be a dead man.

He needed to use all of his resources to investigate this Doctor King and provide James with a detailed report before nightfall.

After ending the call, James headed to Common Clinic.

May was now May Caden.

Her identity was James's distant cousin.

May sat on the chair with her hands cupping her face, staring blankly into the distance.

When James arrived, she quickly got up and greeted him with a big smile, "Hi, James!"

She looked more like a sweet neighbor girl and nothing like a cold-blooded killer.

"Hey."

James sat down beside her. "How are your injuries?"

May smiled as she answered, "These are nothing. I've been in rougher shape during previous missions. I might be fully recovered in a few days."

James nodded, "Focus on your recovery. From now on, the situation in Cansington is only going to get messier. I'm worried that our enemies will start getting antsy and attack my wife. Your mission will be to protect her."

James understood, that many people were scheming for his downfall since he resigned and went to Cansington.

Right now, the Callahans' public enemies were the Oceanic Commerce and the Five Provinces Alliance. God knows how many more dangerous threats lurked out of sight.

He needed to make arrangements to ensure Thea's safety.

May was capable, but she was still only one of the SSS-level killers in the Dark Castle.

He needed more experts like her on his side.

He could not use the Black Dragon Army to protect Thea.

"May, are you still in contact with the other killers in the Dark Castle?"

"What?"

May was perplexed. "James, what do you mean? Do you still think I'm connected to that organization? I rebelled and left that place. My name is on their blacklist. How could I still be in touch with those killers?" James waved his hand to dismiss her suspicions. "I'm not suspecting you. I want to hire more killers, that's all."

May sighed.

"I haven't gotten in touch with the Dark Castle killers, and I don't know what kinds of people those other killers were. They might be office workers, lounge singers, or even construction workers." May drew a deep breath. She knew the Dark Castle was an intricate and complicated organization.

"There are only two types of killers in the Dark Castle."

Intrigued, James prompted her. "Tell me more."

May continued. "The first type are those who were trained by the Dark Castle. The organization searches for orphans all over the world, to train them from a young age. They are left to compete and fight with others in the same predicament as them for food and the ability to stay alive. Killers who were trained this way were usually the most merciless."

"The second type is hired hitmen."

"These killers have unknown identities. They only appear when the Dark Castle needs them to. The organization sends out missions for them to complete, and they will take a 20% commission." James nodded his head in comprehension. He asked May, "Which type are you?"

"The first type."

May began recalling her past. "Ever since I could remember, everything I saw was always covered in blood. I was kept in a cage, and was pitted against fierce dogs and wolves..." May told him her life's story.

It was tragic and cruel.

She had wanted to leave the Dark Castle for a very long time, but she was never able to muster the courage.

It was because she was aware of the Dark Castle's influence. Any killer who wanted out was guaranteed a certain death.

James contemplated the situation.

"Since the Dark Castle had launched a search for you, will the organization members appear if you were present?"

May looked at him as she felt fear creep in. "Are you planning to use me as bait?"

"Yes."

James nodded.

"I need more killers. You're an SSS-level killer from the Dark Castle. If you show up, there will be more SSS-level killers after you. Once they show themselves, I don't plan on letting them return." Determined, May nodded, "Just tell me whatever you need me to do, James."

James said, "I just wanted to preface you that this is going to be dangerous. Right now, your focus is on getting better. When you and Henry are both hale and healthy, we will discuss more on this mission."

"Understood."

May nodded.

James left promptly after the discussion with May.
