"Master, here is the information you requested," Muzan said, kneeling with a bowed head as he handed over a sleek black folder.
Kyle snatched it from his hands without a glance. His piercing eyes scanned the first page, and a sinister smile began to curl across his face.
"Impressive..." he murmured, flipping through the file with growing interest. "Maxwell Robert... grade four, Midtown High School..." His voice trailed off as his eyes landed on a particular section of the report.
Suddenly, Kyle's eyes widened with manic delight.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA!" His laughter erupted like thunder, echoing through the dimly lit chamber. "Son of Henry Robert and Mary Robert? HAHAHAHAHAHA!"
With a blur of motion, Kyle's hand shot forward and wrapped around Muzan's neck like a vice, lifting him effortlessly off the ground.
"You told me... the Robert bloodline was finished!" Kyle hissed, his voice dripping with venom. "You said I wiped them out! Every. Last. One."
Muzan struggled, kicking helplessly in the air as Kyle's grip tightened. "I—I'm sorr... sorry... I didn’t know... there was a child..." he wheezed, face turning purple.
Kyle finally released him, letting Muzan crash to the ground like a broken doll, gasping for air.
"Find him," Kyle commanded coldly. "Maxwell Robert. And bring him to me—along with his friends. Alive, if possible. But bleeding is fine."
Muzan scrambled to his feet and vanished into the shadows, not daring to utter a word more.
Kyle turned, walking slowly toward the massive window overlooking the city below. His silhouette, framed by moonlight, pulsed with fury and madness.
"So… Henry and Mary thought they could leave a legacy behind," he whispered to himself, voice trembling with anticipation. "Your little boy is trying to avenge you? Cute."
He clenched his fists, and the glass before him cracked slightly from the sheer pressure of his aura.
"But vengeance is a fool’s path. And I am no fool."
"I ended you both… painfully. Slowly. And now, I’ll do the same to your son. And when he screams for mercy, when he begs me to stop—I’ll remind him of who I am. Of what I did to his precious family. I’ll end every drop of Robert blood that remains."
Kyle threw back his head and cackled, his voice unhinged and wild. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Destiny truly has a twisted sense of humor!"
From the dark corner of the room, a soft voice spoke.
"Should we report this to the Shadow Emperor?" asked Sarah, his wife, her eyes narrowed, her tone cautious.
Kyle turned to her slowly, the laughter still lingering on his lips. "No," he said firmly. "I don’t need his interference. I don’t need his judgment. That boy... is just an ant."
He turned back to the city lights, the storm of madness returning to his gaze.
"An ant... with a mind like his father’s. A brain like his mother’s. Genius bred into him like a weapon waiting to be drawn." His voice deepened. "But no matter how bright the spark, I’ll extinguish it. Just like I did before."
He smiled again—slow, menacing.
"This time... I'll make sure there’s nothing left to come back."

Back to the Present Moment
“Where are you taking us?! Leave us alone!” Jessica shrieked, her voice laced with panic as the blacked-out SUV raced down a deserted road, the city lights fading into the distance.
Tied up in the back seat, James thrashed violently against his restraints. “I know that ruthless tycoon sent you to capture us! If you don’t let us go right now, I swear I’ll call 911!” he barked, his face twisted in desperation.
From the passenger seat, the cold-eyed man in a black trench coat turned his head slightly. Muzan. His expression was unreadable, lips pressed in a line of cruel indifference. “Knock them out and blindfold them. I don’t want any distractions.”
Without hesitation, one of the henchmen in the back drew his gun—not to shoot, but to slam the hilt hard against James’ temple. Jessica screamed again, louder this time, before the same fate met her. Max, who had remained silent this entire time, simply stared at the floor, his expression unreadable. He knew he was the real target. He knew screaming wouldn’t save them. The last thing he saw was the butt of the gun flashing toward him—then darkness.
Muzan glanced down at Max’s slumped body. “You’re the son of Henry Robert,” he muttered coldly, as if talking to a ghost. “We have unfinished business.”
He stepped out of the car and barked a new order. “Let’s go.”
But before the engines roared to life, he paused.
“That van…” he said, pointing toward the discreet surveillance vehicle parked a few meters away—Agent Mira’s van. “Blow it up. I don’t want them following us.”
“Yes, sir,” the henchman responded, pulling out an RPG launcher from a hidden compartment in their vehicle. He aimed with calculated precision.
Inside the surveillance van, a robotic voice blared, “Incoming missile detected!”
“What?! Get out—everyone out of the van now!” Mira screamed, leaping for the door as the others scrambled behind her.
BOOM!!!
A thunderous explosion shook the ground as the missile struck, engulfing the van in a fiery inferno. The shockwave knocked everyone to the ground. The sky lit up in burning orange.
“They’re trying to eliminate us—wipe out our tail,” Clark growled, his face smeared with dirt and ash.
“I know,” Mira said grimly, brushing herself off. Her eyes followed the trail of smoke and flames with cold calculation.
“We can’t go after them. You heard the higher-ups—Kyle is untouchable,” Clark added cautiously.
“No one is untouchable,” Mira snapped, her tone sharp with defiance.
A mocking laugh broke the tension. Ms. Michelle, the mysterious teacher,max class teacher who was also with them earlier, chuckled behind them, chains still clinking around her wrists. “You think you can handle the Shadow Brokers?” she smirked. “Naive.”
“What’s funny?” Mira turned to her, suspicious.
“The idea that you—any of you—could stand against an organization that controls this city from the shadows,” Michelle replied with a smug grin.
“Huh?” Mira raised an eyebrow.
“I heard rumors,” Clark said hesitantly. “They’re not just criminals. They control everything—the underworld, politics, even the flow of wealth and power. I never believed it until now.”
“So Kyle… he’s one of their leaders?” Mira asked.
“No,” Michelle said, the smirk never leaving her face. “He’s just a pawn in their endless game. Replaceable. Controlled.”
Mira’s jaw clenched. “Are they really that powerful?”
“More than you could imagine,” Michelle answered flatly.
“And how do you know all this?” Mira pressed.
Michelle’s expression turned icy. “That’s none of your business.”
“Huh…” Mira muttered, frustrated.
“What do we do now?” Clark asked, looking at the smoking remains of their van. “They could be anywhere by now.”
“We may still have a chance,” Clark added suddenly, flipping open his laptop. “That boy, Max—he’s smart. I noticed earlier he was wearing a digital watch with a GPS tracker. If it’s still active…”
He began furiously typing as data began streaming across his screen.
“I’ve got a signal!” Clark announced, eyes widening.
Mira’s lips curved into a sharp smirk. “Then we’ve still got a shot.”

“Let’s bring hell to the shadows.”
Mira’s voice cut through the silence and tension between them like a blade. Her eyes were fierce, sparking with unspoken pain and a hunger for justice. Around her, the team exchanged uneasy glances—this mission was personal now.
“Don’t be a fool,” Ms. Michelle said, her voice tight with concern.
“I don’t care,” Mira snapped without hesitation.
Clark frowned. “Why do you care so much?”
Before Mira could speak, Ms. Michelle stepped forward, her gaze heavy. “Because Kyle Carter killed Max’s parents. And now that Max’s identity has been compromised, he’s in mortal danger. Carter will stop at nothing to eliminate him. Max is a threat to everything Kyle’s trying to build.”
Silence filled the room for a beat too long.
Clark squinted suspiciously. “How do you know all this? Are you a spy? What agency do you work for? Because no ordinary teacher should have access to this kind of intel.”
Mira turned, her voice sharp. “Yeah. Who are you? There’s no trace of you online. No record in any known agency database. Not even a false alias.”
Ms. Michelle’s lips pressed into a firm line. “That’s none of your concern.”
“Really?” Mira raised a brow. “Because if we’re going to war, we need to know who’s fighting beside us.”
Michelle’s voice dropped, low and urgent. “Every second we waste playing detective, Kyle Carter gets closer to killing Max—and possibly every student I’ve sworn to protect. So if you’ve got a plan, now’s the time to use it. Otherwise, I suggest you stop asking questions and listen.”
She reached into her coat and slammed a rolled-up blueprint onto the table.
“Here,” she said, unrolling it. “This is the floor plan of the compound—Kyle’s base of operations. We believe Max is being held in the central chamber. Security is tight: facial scanners, heat-sensitive turrets, biometric locks. This isn’t just a break-in. This is a war zone.”
As the team leaned in, poring over the floor plan, the air thickened with tension.

Meanwhile, in the heart of the enemy's lair...
“Master,” Muzan said, bowing low as his cloak brushed the marble floor. “We’ve brought Max, as you requested.”
Kyle Carter stood at the head of the obsidian chamber, bathed in a cold, sterile light. His sharp features carved shadows across his pale skin, and his eyes gleamed with wicked satisfaction.
“Bring him to me,” he commanded, his voice smooth but laced with menace.
Max was dragged in—his hands bound, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. His eyes, though bruised and tired, still burned with defiance.

Moments earlier...
“Do you really intend to kill him yourself?” Sarah asked, arms crossed as she watched from the upper balcony. “Or is there something else you need from him?”
Kyle didn’t even glance her way. “Very smart of you, my dear,” he said, running his fingers along the edge of a glowing vial. “I need his blood. It’s… unique.”
“Wait.” Sarah’s eyes widened. “You mean… the genetic code is embedded in his blood?”
Kyle finally looked up, a sinister glint in his eyes. “Yes. The blood of the Robert Line. His blood carries the original genome that holds the key to stabilizing the mutations that's where my great genius friends hid the genetic code.”
Sarah’s mouth hung slightly open, a mixture of awe and horror spreading across her face. “If that’s true, then—”
“Then our greatest limitation is about to be eliminated,” Kyle said, grinning. “No more failed experiments. No more dying test subjects No more explosion of subjecs. Just pure, unfiltered power. His blood is the missing piece.”
He turned to the unconscious Max, now strapped to an exam table surrounded by machines. “Thank you, Max, for walking right into my grasp. With your blood, I’ll have the power to rule not just Neo-Eden City… but the entire world.”
He let out a long, twisted laugh that echoed through the steel and glass chamber.
“Hahahahaha…!”
"He will no longer be threat to us again once we get our hands on his blood, but why do we need to kill him? Sarah asked,
"Cause being alive is like a ticking bomb" Kyle said
