Love at the Wrong Table - Season 7 Episode 38

Mackenzie frowned in response. This idiot! Can’t he have cheated information

out of Snake Master?! Honest much?!

Snake Master chuckled silently. “That’s why I won’t say it, even if you will kill

me.”

“Why did you call for a halt then? You’re wasting my time.” Emmanuel was

about to step on the Snake Master again when the red figure flashed out

from the side. However, her strength and Emmanuel’s were starkly different,

making it difficult for her surprise attack to be effective!

As such, Emmanuel swiftly sidestepped and grasped her neck with one hand.

“Don’t kill her!” the Snake Master exclaimed in shock.

Even Mackenzie had noticed that the Snake Master evidently cared more

about the life of the assassin in red than his own life.

“I already spared her earlier.” Mackenzie was right behind him. As such,

Emmanuel, who was already unruffled by women, to begin with, was now

even more ruthless. “You want to kill us, so there’s no reason why we can’t

retaliate and kill you. It’s unfair.”

As he spoke, he tightened his grip on the assassin in red’s neck, whose face,

in turn, turned crimson. She was unable to even beg for mercy.

“Wait!” the Snake Master shouted nervously, his face anxious. “Please spare

her! I can offer you a bargaining chip that will interest you and let us live!”

“It’s that so?” Emmanuel’s curiosity was piqued. “Let’s hear it then.”

Mackenzie, too, thought the Snake Master would reveal information about

their client or make threats to save their lives, but it wasn’t the case. The

Snake Master gritted his teeth and said, “This woman here is my younger

sister. She’s the reason I’m now who I am.”

Emmanuel remained silent, and the Snake Master continued his story. “We

were born into a poor family. Our father was an alcoholic. We couldn’t eat

enough when we were young and often suffered from our father’s drunken

beatings. In a fit of anger, my sister killed him!”

At that, Mackenzie felt some sympathy for the siblings‘ plight. However, she

wouldn’t easily believe the assassin’s words.

“Our mother, in order to keep us alive, sold us to an organization. That

organization, in turn, sold us to the Redback Assassins,” he revealed. “The

Redback Assassins made us undergo assassin training from a young age.

Those without talent and weak physical constitution would be eliminated,

even dying on the training grounds. My sister had talent, but unfortunately,

she was malnourished as a child. She was so frail that she almost died on the

training grounds. In order to let her survive, I agreed to become a

biochemical experiment for the organization…”

“I’m sure you can guess what kind of biochemical experiments those were,”

he continued after a beat. “The pain I endured before becoming a Snake

Master is something you could never imagine, and everything I’ve done was

to keep my sister alive…”

Just then, Emmanuel suddenly felt a slight burning sensation on the back of

his hand. It turned out that tears from the assassin in red had fallen onto his

hand.

“That’s quite touching,” Emmanuel monotoned. “Unfortunately, it cannot be

my bargaining chip to spare you.”

He had also undergone rigorous training and conditioning in the Northern

Region Wolf Warrior Unit. If he were to spare the enemy just because they

fabricated a sympathetic story, then he would not be worthy of being a Wolf

Warrior!

“I know!” The Snake Master gritted his teeth and reached into his own body,

and Emmanuel frowned in response, his gaze alert.

This time, Snake Master didn’t dare to make a surprise attack at all because,

his sister’s life was in Emmanuel’s hands. He took out something strange, an

unattractive green object with a foul–smelling liquid on it, along with several

strange tubes.

“Ah!”

-Curiosity killed the cat. Mackenzie thought she had enough courage, so she

leaned in to take a peek.

Almost immediately after that, she regretted it. She regretted ever thinking

about wanting to see such an ugly thing. It was enough to give someone

nightmares.

It was a living, pulsating gallbladder connected to Snake Master’s body. It

was a large emerald–green snake gallbladder!
