Chapter 251: The War that Decides the Fate of \'The Bridge\' Part 54
Noticing Kayn\'s gaze, Natas quickly understood what the former wanted to know. "I\'ve already told you before, I barely know anything about \'The Bridge\'. I have not observed this place for more than a decade as it is very boring compared to what is happening inside the \'Tower\'. If there\'s anyone who knows each and every single detail of every event that took place in \'The Bridge\', it can only be Ikol,"
Regretfully, Ikol can\'t help them since they can\'t reveal their identities to anyone yet. In addition to that, it is very hard to trust Ikol, considering that he is the God of Mischief.
Kayn understood. He turns his attention back to Alonzo and the rest of the kitchen staff.
"What should we do?" Kayn truly doesn\'t have any idea what to do now that someone else is being put in the same situation as him. In his defense, he just went ahead and did whatever he wants without the need to consider the opinion of other people.
"I\'ll report this to Seven. In the meantime, help Nyak and Gilbert prepare the soldiers\' lunch," Alonzo instructed before quickly leaving to find Seven. Deep inside, he is hoping that it isn\'t too late.
Once Alonzo departed, the entire kitchen staff promptly sprang into action, assisting Nyak and Gilbert in diligently preparing individual servings for each soldier\'s lunch.
Immediately upon the lunch bell rang, a multitude of soldiers swiftly formed a queue, eagerly awaiting their turn to receive food from the kitchen staff.
Following the first person who ate the fried chicken, a series of compliments rained down from the masses of soldiers.
Although these soldiers were his enemy, Kayn and Gilbert still can\'t help feeling overwhelmed by it. Of course, it didn\'t change their mind about killing them, especially after knowing now that each and every one of them is simply holding back their true nature in fear of being kicked out from the army of the Assembly of Freedom.
They appreciate the compliment, but that doesn\'t necessarily clean the image of the Assembly of Freedom in their minds.
"I did as you told, I secretly added Undead Apples when you were busy distracting Maria," Gilbert whispered to Kayn.
"Great job," Kayn smiled. He had done this purposely so that he can put a charm on Maria.
"I am just curious though. Since I was the one who added the Undead Apple, how come you\'re still the one charming them?" Gilbert can\'t help wondering about it.
"That\'s because I was the one who activated the Undead Apple," Kayn lied.
Gilbert understood.
Kayn realized that he can\'t continue with this lie if another situation like this comes up again. He has to be cautious whenever using the Undead Apple or else people would start suspecting him.
Thirty minutes during lunch break, Alonzo finally returned back to camp.
"So, how was it?" Gilbert immediately asked.
"I was too late…" Alonzo sighs heavily.
"What do you mean?"
"Madam Maria caught Captain Seven cheating. She killed the other Executive since he was guarding the door for Seven and the woman he was cheating with,"
Kayn and Gilbert look at each other. So this was the reason why they were panicking.
"He spared him?"
"No," Alonzo shook his head. "She gave him one week to clean his neck,"
"What will be our fate now?" A kitchen staff asked.
"Would our company dissolve once Seven dies?"
"It shouldn\'t be right?"
"They\'ll most likely just replace Seven,"
Speaking of the devil.
Seven entered the camp with a dark look on his face. He approaches Alonzo and the rest of the kitchen staff as he muttered. "Thank you for your service,"
Whoosh!
In one quick motion, Alonzo\'s head got separated from his body.
It was a swift and untimely attack, so Alonzo was unable to put up a single defense.
Everyone was shocked at seeing Alonzo being killed by Seven all of a sudden. But the commotion only lasted for a brief moment and everyone returned to what they are doing as if nothing happened.
Contrary to them though, Kayn and Gilbert were shocked. The two of them didn\'t expect it the same way as Alonzo didn\'t think that he would be dying right now.
"You," Seven pointed at another chef. "You\'re now the new head chef and my personal chef,"
After appointing a new head chef, Seven left to take care of his own matters.
Instead of fearing the position, the newly appointed head chef accepted it without any problem.
"I am Liam, your new head chef," The newly appointed head chef introduced himself. "Starting from now, everyone should report to me each and every single piece of information they find, especially the two of you,"
Unlike Alonzo, Liam didn\'t look favorably at Kayn and Gilbert as he believes it was because of these two that Alonzo died.
The elite members soon arrived to clean up the body of Alonzo.
Instead of burying it though, they just put Alonzo\'s dead body in one corner and burned it without any ounce of sympathy and mercy.
The scene sent shivers to Gilbert. "These people are insane…"
"What can you expect from members of the Assembly of Freedom?" Kayn stares with a deadpan face at Alonzo\'s body slowly being turned to dust.
Fortunately, Alonzo didn\'t snitch that it was them that found Maria first. Otherwise, they might have been put into a difficult position like him. In addition to that, no one bothered snitching on anyone else as if it is an unspoken rule amongst everyone.
"It seems like this has happened multiple times already," Kayn express his thoughts.
"Definitely," Gilbert agrees.
"You two are correct,"
"Madam Maria?"
Kayn and Gilbert were shocked at seeing Maria behind them.
It wasn\'t only the two, but the entire company of Seven was shocked.
"How long have you been here?" Kayn became nervous.
"From the beginning. I was watching everything from the ceiling," Maria looked up.
"Maria?" Seven hastily approaches. "I can explain!"
"No need, the deaths of three people today already explained everything," Maria shook her head.
"Then what are you doing here?" Seven still believes that there\'s a chance for him to save himself.
"I came here to take my two personal chefs with me in case you try and kill them," Maria referred to Nyak and Gilbert.
"Them?" Liam was shocked.
Whoosh!
Another untimely death took place. In just a matter of a few minutes, Liam followed his predecessor Alonzo to the afterlife.
"Let\'s go," Maria motioned her hand for Nyak and Gilbert to follow her.
