A noble longsword inlaid with gems suddenly appeared in Rose's hand. She raised it high and pointed it at Eisenhart's throat. The blade reflected his instantly pale face.

The almost solidified murderous intent gushed out, making the financial director's feet feel cold as if he had fallen into an icy cave.

The steady, cold sword blade told him that this was no joke.

Damn it...wasn't it said that only Adilheid inherited Rugal's martial arts talent? How come even this girl is so powerful!

On one side was an adult man who was 1.8 meters tall, and on the other side was an underage girl who was less than 1.5 meters tall.

Anyone who sees this will feel that there is a huge disparity in strength, and that this little devil can be subdued with one hand.

But Eisenhart felt that if he didn't give Rose a satisfactory answer, he would die under her sword in the next second.

"Ha, ha, ha." Eisenhart laughed dryly. "How could that be? Uncle is here to help you."

As he spoke, he backed away and tried to slip away.

Rose didn't give him a chance, and followed him step by step, keeping her sword three inches away from his throat, ready to take his life at any time.

"Those old guys out there are all trying to carve up the consortium. Only I! I'm the only one still thinking about how to prevent the Lugal Consortium from splitting up!"

"I, I'm telling the truth! You don't know how to manage such a large consortium."

He backed away with his hands raised, accidentally tripped over the chair behind him, and stumbled to the ground.

The sword tip pressed against his throat and blood flowed out from the wound.

"Do you still expect those two women, Mai Zhuo and Weiss, to stand up for you?"

At the critical moment, Eisenhart screamed hysterically, "I tell you, it was because of these two people's betrayal that Lord Rugal was beaten by a group of fighters and finally died of exhaustion!"

"They have already joined others!"

He didn't know what the situation was, but he just put the blame on the two women.

They had previously relied on Lucard's support to wantonly suppress the old guys in the group.

"Sister Mai Zhuo, Sister Wei Si..."

Rose was stunned when she thought of her two stunning sisters.

She bit her lip and shook her head frantically: "No, they can't betray their father!"

Where are you...why don't you come and save us.

No matter how she and her brother resisted, they were just two children after all.

Lucard was used to being a dictator and would not allow anyone to challenge his authority, including his children.

When he was alive, Rose and her brother never experienced the warmth from their father. When they occasionally saw him, they could only accept his cold theories about "the strong" and "the emperor".

Now that he was dead, Rose and Adilheid had to endure the ill will of the entire consortium.

Their malice towards the dictator never disappeared, but simply lay dormant, waiting to erupt at the moment of the dictator's death.

The old men on the board of directors outside were discussing how to divide the profits. Eisenhart came in just to persuade them to sign a surrender.

In fact, even if they don't accept it, the evil adults have ten thousand ways to transfer the assets of the consortium, it's just a little troublesome.

"Those two vicious women are pure bitches who adore power..."

"Snapped!"

Eisenhart's head exploded like a watermelon without any warning, and warm blood splattered onto Rose's face.

"What a piece of shit, blaming me."

Wu Ji walked over from the window and shook his fist.

"Oh, I actually saw Lord Wu Ji killing someone. Is he planning to join the evil side? If I remember correctly, this is the first time I've seen Lord Wu Ji kill someone, right? Mai Zhuo?"

"Hehe, it will be much easier after the first time."

Two tall secretaries followed him in at the same time, laughing and joking.

Adil Haider was first frightened by the exploding "Watermelon Head", and was even more shocked to see the three people walking in so calmly.

This is a 22-story building! They actually walked in through the window!!!

How did you do that? ! !

"Sister Mai Zhuo, Sister Wei Si..."

Rose turned around and was about to rush into their arms as she did before, but she saw another man.

For a moment, Eisenhart's words just now rang in her mind.

Did they really betray their father and follow someone else? Was this man the one Mai Zhuo and Weiss had pledged their allegiance to?

Could my father's death be related to them? Could it be related to this man?

The loli pigeon-like charge immediately stopped and she looked at the three people seriously, especially Wu Ji.

Similarly, Wu Ji was also observing the brother and sister.

According to intelligence, the elder brother, Adilhaid Bernstein, is fifteen years old.

The young man in front of him was about 1.7 meters tall, wearing a black suit, and had the same short golden hair as Rugal before he evolved into the "Omega" form. His body was muscular and his chest was broad. He looked like a replica of the underage Rugal.

But this Adil Haider always has a humble smile on his face, and he is handsome and sunny.

Noticing that Wu Ji was looking at him, he greeted him politely.

"Hello, um, um, thank you for helping me out."

Wu Ji was very happy with his good attitude and even wanted to write a special BGM for him.

Compared to her gentlemanly brother, Lucard's biological daughter is much more violent.

Loli's fair and tender face was covered in blood, but she didn't care at all. She continued to hold the long sword towards Wu Ji and threatened him:

"Hey! Who are you!"

"Why are you here with Madravis and the others? Are you planning to betray my father?!"

Rose Bernstein has the typical exquisiteness of a European aristocratic girl. Her golden double spiral curls, which are the standard for a young lady, fall on her shoulders. Every strand of hair has been carefully curled, and she wears a small red princess crown on her head.

Her face was a standard doll-like one, with porcelain-white skin and almost invisible pores. Her cheeks had the soft curves unique to girls, her nose was high but not overly sharp, her lips were a natural cherry pink, and her ruby-like eyes were filled with arrogance and violence that was seriously inconsistent with her appearance.

Her figure was much more developed than that of girls of the same age. The slender waist was squeezed into an almost dangerous curve by the corset of the burgundy dress. Little Lei... or maybe it could be called Big Lei, stood proudly, with snow-white legs extending from under the hem of her skirt.

The blood stains on her face added a cruel and bloody charm to her.

She is not a princess, but a tyrant in a formal dress.

"me?"

Wu Ji thought for a moment and replied seriously, "Actually, Lucard entrusted you to me before he died. If you don't mind, you can call me your respected father."

Rose: "Huh? You're looking for death!"

The sword light tore through the air.

Chapter 144 Foster Father

Wu Ji grabbed the sword with his bare hands, but the gleaming blade couldn't cut through his iron-clad flesh.

"You little girl have the same temper as Lucard. You're ready to fight after just a few words."

"hateful!"

Rose gripped the hilt tightly with both hands, but the sword did not move at all, as if it was welded to the other's palm.

"Let go!"

"no problem."

Wu Ji suddenly exerted force and threw Rose to the side with her sword. Mai Zhuo caught her with his quick eyes and hands.

"Mai Zhuo, teach our little princess well. Don't draw your sword against your father without knowing the answer."

"Yes."

Mai Zhuo obediently picked up a silk tablecloth and gently wiped the blood off Rose's face.

Seeing his sister being restrained, Adilhaid instinctively wanted to step forward, but hesitated after seeing that there was no killing intent in Wu Ji's eyes.

He lowered his voice and asked, "Are you really my father's friend?"

"of course."

Wu Ji's hearty laughter echoed throughout the room. "Mr. Lucard and I are close friends, regardless of age. Although we haven't met many times, we felt like old friends right away because we share the same interests. Our friendship is pure and unwavering."

"My name is Wu Ji. You may have heard Rugal mention me. Well... last year's KOF tournament was co-organized by my SNK and Rugal Group. We also have a very pleasant business partnership."

How can I not be happy?

Everything is controlled by Maggie and the other two. It is the easiest business to transfer money from one hand to the other.

"Oh, those people outside and downstairs all said they had a good relationship with my father. They were either brothers or friends, and some even said they were sworn brothers and sworn sons. But what happened?"

Before he could finish his words, Rose had already ripped the tablecloth from her face and yelled like a furry little beast, "You're all bandits trying to steal my father's assets! You're all the same! You're like wolves that can never be fed!"

"Don't try to lie to me!"

Soon, the Tornado Drill Loli's mouth was covered by the tablecloth attack used by Mai Zhuo, and she struggled wildly.

"Woo~ woo! Mai Zhuo, what are you doing! It's... woo, let me go!"

Mai Zhuo wore a perfect smile, but the strength in his hands gradually increased: "Master Wu Ji is right. Children entering their rebellious period should be properly educated."

Rose only hated herself for trusting in their past friendship. Mai Zhuo had clearly betrayed them! She was no longer the good sister who would secretly take care of the siblings.

"Brother!"

She could only reach out to her brother for help.

My brother is countless times stronger than me. As long as he is willing to take action, any enemy will not be a problem.

Originally, if Wu Ji and the other two had not come, she was going to let her brother Adilheid kill his way through, use force to prove Bernstein's noble bloodline, and make those old guys shut up.

When one tyrant dies, another tyrant will take over everything he has.

She uses her brain, while her brother uses his hands.

The brother and sister will take back everything that is theirs.

But now, Adil Haider, who always doted on his sister, did not take action immediately.

"...Mr. Wu Ji...?"

Adil Haider stroked his chin in thought, the name sounded familiar.

His eyes suddenly lit up: "Ah, I remember now!"

"For the entire last year, my father has been thinking about this name. He often looks forward to meeting Mr. Wu Ji. He even said that the purpose of holding KOF95 was to meet Mr. Wu Ji!"

The blond, handsome young man's eyes sparkled as he excitedly said, "That must be the case. That's why my father gave his two most trusted secretaries to Mr. Wu Ji!"

Mai Zhuo and Weiss both burst out laughing.

Can it still be understood this way?

Lucard was indeed thinking about Wu Ji every day, but his concern was so great that he wanted to tear him into pieces.

Hearing this, Rose stopped struggling and showed a pair of small eyes from behind Mai Zhuo's arms, revealing a hopeful light.

"Really?"

"How could that be true? I'm here to help you!"

Wu Ji said with deep sorrow, "A few days ago, I learned that my good brother, Lucard, had died suddenly and his two orphans were being bullied. I dropped everything I was doing and rushed here immediately."

"Back then, on the Black Noah, Lucard and I made a pact: if he were to die... I would take care of your wife and children. Don't worry."
