Chapter 342: Falling Out Completely
"Get the f*ck down from that vehicle right now before I do it for you! It seems that there’s someone who is tired of living!" freēnovelkiss.com
At the same time as Jeffrey said those words, he began approaching the Jeep that was not far away from him. At this time, he did not even care about who it was that was inside the Jeep. Instead, all that he cared about was to get that person out and kill that person immediately.
On the other hand, Alicia who had just arrived clearly heard what Jeffrey had said. There was no change of expression on her face. Instead, she simply went ahead and opened the door of the Jeep. As for the lights, she did not dim them down at all.
After she go down from the Jeep, she looked at Jeffrey who was approaching aggressively and said, "I would like to know who it is that you are talking about being tired of living."
Jeffrey who was charging over suddenly froze his movements. All of this was because he had been completely caught off-guard by the voice. Of course he recognized it, the voice of the person that he wanted to replace. The first obstacle that was in his path towards his dream.
He had not expected that Alicia was the one who had come over at such a moment. Moreover, the way that she had behaved was definitely completely against the way that he understood her.
After a moment of hesitation, Jeffrey looked at Alicia who had already stepped forward. Currently, she looked completely different standing in front of the lights of the Jeep. Of course Jeffrey could not see her face, but just from her body, he could tell that she was Alicia together with the voice.
Jeffrey swallowed for a moment. Then, forcing a smile on his face, he said, "It was just a misunderstanding. I thought that it was just some idiot who had come over to cause trouble. That was the reason why I had become furious."
Of course as he said those words, there was no sincerity in them at all. Instead, it was like he was trying to say that Alicia was the troublemaker. Although he possessed some restraint in his actions, but with his plan already in motion, there was no need for him to hold back that much.
He only needed to wait for a while, before the plan was fully in action. It was only then that he was going to gain much freedom to do as he pleased.
Of course Alicia understood what Jeffrey was trying to imply. Nevertheless, she decided not to focus on that matter at all .
What Jeffrey was trying to imply. Nevertheless, she decided not to focus on that matter at all. Instead, she went straight to the point, the reason why she had come over.
"Do you mind telling me about the reason why the military is attacking, and it seems that the other races are also planning to attack?" Alicia asked in a calm voice. But still, if one was careful enough, they could detect that there was coldness in the voice.
For a moment, Jeffrey was surprised, completely dumbfounded, not understanding why Alicia had suddenly decided to come over and ask a question like that. Could it be that she had realized something?
He was not the only one, considering that even those that were following behind him revealed a hint of surprise on their faces. And of course, everything was observed by Alicia.
As expected, just as Aaron had said, it seemed that it was Jeffrey and this group of people that had orchestrated against her and the territory.
"You must be joking, Alicia. How are we even supposed to know why the military is going to attack right now? All that we know is that the military wants to take over the territory and the other territories present within this city. As for the zombies, it is normal for them to attack humans, right?" Jeffrey waved his hand as he said with a helpless expression on his face.
Of course what he had said made complete sense. After all, it was not as if he was lying, but it was true. It was just that the military and the zombies had both been instigated so that they could attack the territory at this moment.
"Is that so? Why is it that what Aaron told me is completely different from what you are trying to tell me?" Alicia asked with raised brows.
Jeffrey’s heart skipped a beat when he heard that Aaron was the one who had given Alicia the information. At this moment, although he did not want to believe it, he could not be so sure about if what Alicia was saying was true or not.
Of course he could not say that it was completely false considering that Alicia possessed suspicions towards them. And it was also true that Aaron already knew about the plan that he was having. In fact, he had participated in the initiation of the plan.
At this point, Jeffrey was thinking in his heart, ’Could it be that this stupid son of mine has already been charmed completely by this vixen? How can it be possible that he is completely affected by a woman, to the extent that he doesn’t see big things? If he wanted this b*tch, he could have simply gone ahead making sure that the plan was kept from her, and once the plan succeeds, he could get her.’
Although he thought that way, there was no way that Jeffrey was going to admit. So, he looked at Alicia, still the forced smile on his face, "I don’t know what it is that my son Aaron told you, but still, I have to tell you that I don’t really know much information about the reason why the military is attacking us right now, other than what everybody knows.
As for the zombies, the matter of them attacking us something that I have just known from you. I didn’t possess any information about them planning to attack, considering that I have not been out of the territory for a while now."
"It seems that you are trying to play dumb here. Nevertheless, I’m not going to continue tolerating traitors being within my territory. This is a territory that I built with my own ability, before the rest of you joined me later on. So, I’m not going to allow you to destroy it." Alicia stated.
The moment that she said those words, lightning began flickering on her entire body. The fluctuations of the lightning on her body somehow affected the headlights of the Jeep behind her, in such a way that the headlights that were shining brightly began blinking with random intervals between.
When Jeffrey realized that Alicia was so sure with the information that she possessed, and she was even ready to attack, his expression turned extremely cold.
He did not know what it was that Aaron had said, but after this, if he managed to get out of here, he was going to make sure that he punished that stupid son of his. How could he reveal crucial information like this to Alicia, when the plan had already been initiated?
If this piece of information was revealed before the plan was carried out, then, Jeffrey could just go ahead and say that Aaron was blabbering nonsense. But right now, it was not something that he could simply dodge considering that it was his son who had given the information.
Nevertheless, he did not believe that Alicia was going to attack. After all, if she attacked him, how was she supposed to defend the territory alone? Although she possessed a group of people that were under her, how strong were they to be capable of resisting the military and the zombies all together, not to mention that perhaps the goblins would also be coming over?
"You have to reconsider your decision Alicia. It might be true that we are having plans of our own, but we don’t have the intention of destroying this territory at all. I want to take over this territory, and not to destroy it. So, if you attack me right now, believe it or not, this territory is going to be destroyed, no matter how strong you are." Jeffrey stated as he looked at Alicia.
At the same time as he said those words, he began preparing himself to attack. If it was possible, if there was a chance, he was definitely going to take it and attack Alicia. Since she had already known the plan that he was having, there was no need for her to exist.
It was just that he could not attack directly. Alicia was stronger than him by a few levels, though he was not sure by how many levels exactly she was ahead of him. Still, he believed that she had not managed to reach the diamond rank.
Otherwise, had it been that she had reached the diamond rank, she would have definitely been capable of crushing him easily. Moreover, with the diamond rank power level, she would be capable of dealing with the military, without depending on him or the others.
At the same time, Jeffrey was getting ready, just in case Alicia decided to attack him. Though, he believed that with her intelligence, there was definitely no way that she was going to attack him, considering that it was going to be way more disadvantageous to eliminate him, than to have him around.
"That is enough reason for me to eliminate you. I cannot have a poisonous snake within my territory. How am I supposed to know that you are not going to attack me during the time that I would be trying to deal with the invaders that you invited?" Alicia asked.
In the next moment, the intensity of the lightning that was surrounding her body suddenly increased. Then, without waiting for Jeffrey to say any other words, Alicia attacked.
