Old Gods, Rapid-Fire Guns, and Prohibition

Chapter 244 [The Attack Has Finally Arrived]

These days have been filled with unease for Vasini.

Even though nothing actually happened outside, everything was as calm as if no one had died that night.

But he knew that right outside the sanctuary, a demon was roaming, ready to devour anyone's life at any moment.

Therefore, outside the sanctuary seemed to be an eternal, long night, and only inside the sanctuary was there a safe place.

This naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the family leaders. With nothing happening for a long time and them trapped in the sanctuary, many family affairs could not be handled at all, and everything was about to fall into chaos.

More importantly, the person who made all these decisions was Vasini, and no one knows whether Vasini was doing something in secret.

What if this is just a smokescreen for his massive purge?

So, after five days of near-prisonment, these family leaders finally united.

“Vassini, we have to go home. It’s been five days. We don’t understand what you’re afraid of, but nothing has actually happened, has it?”

Vasini remained silent.

He didn't know what the immortal was doing, but there was no doubt that the other side's inaction had worked; at the very least, these people had been completely paralyzed.

He was caught in a dilemma.

"Gentlemen, give me two more days, and I will definitely resolve this problem so that everyone can go back."

He took a deep breath and tried to speak calmly.

"What if there are two more days after that? We have to go home!"

Just as an argument was about to erupt, the doors of the sanctuary were pushed open.

A man covered in blood was brought in by members of the Martino family.

The expression on the face of one of the family leaders who was confronting Vasini changed drastically when he saw that person.

"Joey, what's wrong? What happened?!"

“Valenzo, the family is finished. A monster killed everyone… He’s impervious to bullets, you can’t kill him… Valenzo…”

The man named Joey said a few more words, then his body stiffened, and he finally exhausted his life force and died.

The whole audience fell silent.

An unkillable monster—that's not much different from what Vasini said before.

But who knows if this was actually a conspiracy orchestrated by Vasini beforehand?
In particular, this person was let in while everyone was arguing fiercely.

Vasini was also aware of this.

He realized that his opponent, the immortal, was not only powerful but also cunning.

That guy must have realized the power of God and the might of the Sanctuary, so he wanted to lure him out of the Sanctuary.

He succeeded.

Vasini now has to leave, or he will face the result of being abandoned by everyone.

No one will trust him anymore, and the alliance that was finally brought together will fall apart.

“I will handle this matter, and I will handle it today.”

He made a promise.

The family leaders looked at each other, and in the end, none of them suggested going home.

Except for Valenzo.

He said with a bitter smile, "I want to go back, I want to be with my family."

------

When night falls.

After Vasini finished his last prayer, he left with his men.

Their destination was Valenzo's home.

Valenzo wanted to go back, while Vasini thought that if the other side wanted to ambush him, Valenzo's house would be the most suitable place.

Then let's choose that place as the battlefield for the final battle. Sitting in the car, Valenzo's eyes were vacant, as if he had aged ten years in an instant. He looked out the car window and slowly said, "Don't kill me now. Wait until I get home before you kill me."

You think I did it?

Vasini hadn't expected him to think that way.

"Is not it?"

“When you get there, you will understand. You will know who our opponents are, and…” At this point, Vasini took a deep breath and said in an extremely devout tone, “What kind of great being stands behind us?”

The car arrived at Valenzo's house without incident.

Valenzo's surname is Esposito. His family manages several blocks in the central part of the South District. They are not a particularly large family, so their residence is not a luxurious one.

A three-story building.

Their entire direct family line lived there.

Just by getting out of the car and looking around, Vasini could feel a strong aura of death emanating from the entire building.

Vasini lit a cigarette for himself, took a deep drag, stubbed it out, and then went upstairs.

Valenzo, on the other hand, seemed fearless, as if he were prepared to die and therefore unafraid of anything.

Strangely, although Joey, who came to deliver the message, was covered in blood and died a gruesome death, there was no body in the building, not even a trace of blood, as if it had been thoroughly cleaned up.

This only made Valenzo more agitated. He turned to Vasini and asked anxiously, "Where are my family? Where are they?"

"Don't get excited, we'll find them eventually."

Vasini frowned as well; it was too clean here, which was abnormal.

In particular, despite being so clean, the deathly aura is getting stronger and stronger.

As they approached the third floor, they saw a figure standing on the steps, seemingly waiting for them.

Valenzo lost control as soon as he saw the man, yelling and trying to rush over.

Because this person is his daughter.

"Lily! Thank goodness! You're alive!"

Vasini grabbed him and said, "She's not your daughter, look carefully!"

The figure did indeed look like Lily, and Vasini had seen her before, but she was definitely not Lily anymore, because her eyes were incredibly empty, and she looked exactly like a corpse.

"Come on, your father is waiting for you."

She said that and then pushed the door open and went inside.

Valenzo roared, "Who? Who's your father?! I'm your father! I'm right here!"

He was furious and broke free from Vasini's restraint, charging forward.

Vasini followed behind him, and together they rushed into the room on the third floor.

This room must be Valenzo's house; it's a large house with a cozy living room.

At this moment, a man is sitting on the sofa.

Lily stood beside him.

"You've finally arrived. I've been waiting for you for a long time, Vasini."

The man was none other than the immortal Karst, and he looked even better than before, younger, with smoother skin.

If you didn't know his background, just by looking at his appearance, he was practically as perfect as a legendary elf.

"Give me back my daughter!"
