Old Hayface and his two juniors were curled up on the ground, clutching their heads, knocked out cold from the beating.
However, through it all, they barely made a peep, they took their licks like champs!
They were used to that kind of treatment, after all!
Mosby had that nasty habit, whenever things did not go his way, he would take it out on others by doling out beatings!
However, today, he had gone too far, knocking them out coll!
“Ronan, you old coot, I’ve given you endless riches, miracle pills, and treasures galore, I have been more than generous, and yet you still won’t hand over that map fragment….
“When it’s your life or the map, you choose the map! I’ve tried it all, sweet talk, tough talk, every trick in the book, but you’re just unbreakable!
“And now, Andrew–that little punk–hasn’t done a thing for you, and you just up and give him the map fragment for nothing?”
The more Mosby stewed on it, the hotter his anger burned, his eyes nearly bulging out of their sockets! The shame of it, Ronan’s move was a slap in the face, pure and simple!
It was like a total diss, a slap–down to him, Mosby!
“Ha, Mr. Lake, got something on your mind? Maybe we can help take a load off, huh?”
In the midst of Mosby’s boiling fury, a smug chuckle cut through the air.
Mosby whipped around, not towards the door, but to the balcony of the villa.
There, a long–haired dude had somehow flipped his way in, looking all kinds of cool, like he had just pulled a vanishing act!
“You’re back?”
Mosby was taken aback for a second, then broke into a grin!
This long–haired guy, oozing artsy vibes with his trendy loafers and that sharp, cheeky face, was none other than Mosby’s top student from the Advanced Medical Institute.
The guy’s name was Carl!
Out of all Mosby’s students, Carl was the real deal in medicine and the toughest cookie in a fight!
In the capital, among the kids of The Five Apex Families, Xavier of the Hawyood family was the martial arts prodigy!
Carl, not even from those top–tier families, was rocking a rep as big as Xavier’s. That went to show just how awesome he was!
“Mr. Lake, the moment I got back, I caught you giving my juniors a hard time.”
Carl chuckled, “If the juniors messed up and ticked you off! Why bother getting your hands dirty, Mr. Lake? I can handle it. I’ll just show those juniors the door!”

Mosby quickly interjected, “Carl, hold up, don’t start swinging! It’s not the juniors I’m mad at, it’s someone else!”
He’s got a short fuse, and when he’s steamed, he likes to blow off steam by laying into someone!
However, Carl was a whole different story.
He’s got this brooding artist vibe, with his long hair and sharp features!
Yet, he’s quick to snuff out a life!
He was a whiz with poisons, thanks to his medical training
He was the kind who could off someone without anyone belg the wiser, and there was never any evidence to follow up on.
“Fine, if it’s not the juniors‘ fault, I’ll let them off the hook this time!”
“I’m actually bummed I didn’t get to finish off a few juniors,” Carl added with a hint of regret as he pulled back his ready–to–strike hand.
Mosby’s eyelids twitched, and he frowned, “Even after all that time at the Advanced Medical Institute, you still haven’t toned down your love for killing?”
Carl flashed a wicked grin, “Mr. Lake, some things are just in your nature, and they’ll never change! Take my reputation as the Grim Reaper’s harvester, for instance. It’s so darn irresistible!”
Mosby replied with a hint of annoyance, “Cut it out, I’ve heard enough of your smooth talk to last a lifetime! Now that you’re back, you can take over for me!
“That Andrew kid, he’s gotta go! Take him out and bring me that treasure map he’s holding!”
