If the assassins succeeded in killing the mysterious girl that had invited Xavier to meet her, it was only a matter of time before the rest of the armed men managed to get in and sweep the penthouse. He'd eventually be found, interrogated and killed. Even if they didn't, the authorities would have to show up after such an event, which they wouldn't be able to keep under wraps if their boss died. His chances of surviving in that scenario were slightly higher, but everything he had built and his future would…-

The girl and what seemed to be her 2 closest subordinates talked on and on for a while. Xavier learnt that the tranquilliser he had consumed wasn't lethal and would wear off within a day for average people. So even if he had consumed it, it would have likely worn off in half the time with his metabolism and physique that would be able to break it down twice as quickly. Also, from what they said, Xavier also had a much better idea of what exactly their organisation actually was. It seemed as though it had…

While Xavier lay back in the chair, as if he was unconscious, he was still trying his best to pay attention to his surroundings. He was using the Gangster Instincts and the other senses at his disposal to their fullest in order to do so. And it was only after a few minutes that he heard footsteps heading his way. The faint clacking sound steadily grew louder and whoever was approaching him wore high heels. They also had a skip in their step that was noticeable from the pace of their steps. As for who it…

As soon as Xavier got up from his seat, the 2 men who stood behind the young woman opposite him withdrew their weapons rapidly and aimed them directly at his head. However, they didn't act until they were instructed to. Xavier didn't even flinch as they pointed their guns at him and observed that the safety was still on both their weapons. Thanks to some explanations and training from Karim, he had become much more proficient with firearms and understood them much more. However, that didn't change the…

Upon the large door being opened, a giant penthouse was revealed, and it was unlike anything Xavier had ever seen before. Several metres away from the entrance was a moderately sized pond, and the aesthetic was a mix of modern and oriental. The floor was made of white marble with golden swirls and veins. Meanwhile, the penthouse was brightly lit by large golden chandeliers that were suspended above. It was so well-lit that Xavier almost forgot what time it was. Then, looking at all the glass walls and…

After receiving orders to bring Xavier over to their boss, the 3 armed men in suits all suppressed their hostile intent. Xavier could still tell they were on edge and was amused by their futile attempts at appearing welcoming. However, since their orders were absolute, and it seemed as though their boss had taken an interest in the masked and hooded figure, they treated him with basic manners. Allowing him to remain masked and hooded, one of the armed men led Xavier into the back of the car and told him…

"Hello? I'm here at the location you provided," stated Xavier upon answering the call. "Hahahahahaha! What a loser! You really cycled here in an hour from wherever you were, which I assume is somewhere near that rundown building that you contacted us from. To add to that, you look like you're just a kid, even if you have that hood and mask on." The voice was hoarse and borderline robotic. This made it clear that whoever was talking was using some sort of voice modulator. However, from the method of…

"What is it?!" groaned Xavier after being woken up in the middle of the night by Zack's constant phone calls. Although he could have woken up as soon as his phone rang the first time, with his Gangster Instincts always keeping him on edge, he was too mentally and physically drained to bother. Sleeping was the only time his mind and body could truly rest. But even then, he struggled to sleep deeply and dream ever since he had gotten the Gangster Instincts. But it seemed as though, with Connor sleeping in…

Losing track of time and continuing to fire away, the unit leaders of the Outlaw Gang all tried their best to even rival Xavier in accuracy. However, no matter how hard they tried, there was just an insurmountable gap. Their actual skill level couldn't be fully tested at the firing range with slow-moving targets, and one could never truly know how they would act when the pressure was on and in the heat of the moment. However, it was clear that Xavier wouldn't struggle to hit any target, no matter how…

After teasing Xavier and laughing so hard that their stomachs ached, Karim, Connor, Achara, Zack and Sam were all confused as to why Xavier was so composed and serious. They weren't expecting him to get annoyed much, but he would usually react to their taunts or laugh them off. Yet there seemed to be something on his mind that outweighed their jovial attempts at getting to him. 'So this Expert Precision gives me everything I need to have Expert Precision, but I am still in the driver's seat,' Xavier…
