The Weakness of the Snake - III
Hyena, having swiftly returned to his lair, was in the midst of a thorough purge.
The counterattack of Rodent and Vulture had undoubtedly proven the presence of a traitor in his midst. Those who had accompanied him to meet Ansel were all being interrogated, leaving only his most trusted confidants by his side.
"Boss..." One of Hyena's trusted aides hesitated for a long time before finally murmuring, "Is it possible that it's not a problem with our brothers, but that Fraust... is setting us up?"
Hyena's expression darkened, but he remained silent.
In theory, an extraordinary being capable of contending with grand dukes would have no reason to scheme against a mere underworld boss. But that was only in theory.
If that man was truly so perverse, so deranged, that he would toy with and torment him even without any grudges or grievances... Although the possibility was minuscule, it could not be completely ruled out.
