Novel Full Chapter 457 Secrets of Underworld
Chapter 457 Secrets of Underworld
“So… let me get this straight. You did everything to get killed?” Rudy asked to confirm.
“Yes…”
“You kidnapped Rusher and everyone to maintain peace in the Underworld. You suspected I was the Lord, so you purposely brought them all here. If it turned out I wasn’t the Lord, you would have killed Rusher and the others.
If it turned out your suspicion was right and I was indeed the Lord, you would have asked me to kill you, or I would have killed you in rage. It was a very win-win situation for you as you had nothing to lose… that reminded me of myself.
But keeping that aside, now you want me to kill you because you expect me to sympathize and pity you on your sad story?” Rudy scoffed softly.
“…”
“Do you think I am a joke?” he asked with a lifeless glare in his eyes.
Lu Bela puckered her lips and muttered, “If you don’t kill me, I will kill Maria and Lilim.”
“There are so many things wrong with this threat, but first…” Rudy pointed the gun at Lu Bela’s head and asked, “I just chopped your head off your body, and you didn’t die. What makes you think you will die by this gun?”
‘I scanned the gun, and it’s nothing special. It’s a normal gun that you can find anywhere in the Underworld,’ Rudy uttered inwardly.
“The core of artificial humans is connected to our brain. It feeds and processes using the brain. So if you shoot my core, I will die,” Lu Bela responded.
“And…” Rudy glanced around and shouted, “All of you, stop pretending to be dead! Wake up!”
The dead bodies Rudy had shot before stood up as though nothing had ever happened.
Rudy pointed his gaze at them and said, “Earlier, you said you didn’t kill yourself for their sake. What about now? If I kill you, what will happen to them? Or could it be that you no longer feel sorry for them?”
Lu Bela smiled gently and uttered, “That was when they didn’t have a reason to live and purpose to exist. But now they do— which is protecting the Underworld and maintaining peace.”
“Oh… so that’s why you kept repeating it again and again and made it a big deal.”
“After spending millennia, I decided to create a purpose in life. I… created the Underworld for people like us who had no reason to live. But that changed too, and it became a new civilization.
Everyone in the Underworld thinks that the Syndicates and organizations created the Under Blades to keep the status quo between them. However, it was always the opposite. The Under Blades created the Underworld,” Lu Bela calmly stated.
Her voice had become so calm that it seemed like a person speaking before going to sleep.
“Can’t you order them to kill you? Why do all this?”
“Would your mother kill you if you ask her?”
“…good point.”
Rudy moved his finger to the trigger and asked, “What will happen to Rusher and the others if I kill you?”
“As you said, the Under Blades will announce that the Ross family was assassinated. But note that you bore all the responsibilities. If anything goes wrong, you will be to blame.”
“Throwing everything on my head, threatening me, and then asking me to kill you. You are using me for your own selfishness….”
“…” Rudy furrowed his brows and said, “What about your promise, then?”
Lu Bela raised her head and asked, “What?”
“You promised you would gamble with me in the VVIP underworld tournament. But I am most likely disqualified from today’s tournament, so I won’t enter the next one. Thus, I won’t be able to gamble with you,” Rudy stated.
“You… want to gamble with me?” Lu Bela asked with a surprised look on her face.
“Yes. You got a problem with that? You are still the top gambler of the Underworld, so I can sleep peacefully if I know I am a better gambler than you, the Gambler Queen.”
“What type of gamble is this, and what happens if I win or I lose?” Lu Bela asked curiously.
“It’s a death game. We will take turns and fire guns ourselves.”
Rudy raised the gun in the air and fired two times.
“Now, there are four bullets in this gun. So there are now 66% chances of dying upon firing the gun. If we hit the bullet, we die. If we don’t, we live,” Rudy shrugged at his explanation.
Lu Bela raised her brow in confusion and asked, “But… why would you play such a risky game for no reason?”
“Oh, no. It’s risky for you only. A bullet can’t do shit to me. So the only one who will die is you.” Rudy spun the gun in his finger while saying, “What do you say? Since you want to die, you will die either way. And if you don’t, I will kill you in the end!”
“…”
“And… I also know that killing you won’t actually kill you,” Rudy smirked. “Something that is born can be killed, but something that is created can’t be killed.
I am sure you have your clone bodies somewhere that will wake up if I kill you now. Am I right?”
“Heh.” Lu Bela chuckled softly and muttered, “You really do know everything.”
“I also want to know one thing. Tell me everything you know about the merchant who is selling futuristic gadgets,” Rudy ordered.
Had he asked her nicely, she would have made a condition that Rudy would have had to follow to get his answers. He didn’t like it when someone else was holding the strings; he wanted control over everything.
Therefore, he proposed a condition to Lu Bela to get his answers and perfect revenge.
Rudy would never forgive his enemies, no matter who they were. He killed the enemies, but he liked to see them suffer. However, Lu Bela was an odd case; she wanted to die. Still, Rudy had already decided what to do with Lu Bela to make her suffer.
‘Give them hope and crush it!’
