Heroic Death System

Chapter 5 (Arc 1)

The monitor's scene quickly reversed, stopping at the scene where Gabriel showed up.

Ravel watched as Gabriel walked into the sickroom, before standing at the other's bedside for a while. Following that, he bent down to help him fix his blanket, saying "I will come see you again" before leaving. There was nothing wrong with the entire event.

Ravel repeatedly watched it before ordering, "Analyze the video from when Gabriel entered the sickroom."

Kahn asked him, "General, you're suspicious that Gabriel carried an interference device?"

Ravel's face was expressionless, his eyes cold. He wasn't suspicious, he was certain.

However, in just a few minutes, the analyzing was complete. The scene from when Gabriel had entered the sick room was made clear before them.

【How was the taste of torture?】 His very first words made everyone unhappy, and they heard him continue, 【Take a look at you now, struggling at death's door. Really pitiful.】

【Did you know that your days are limited?】

The people in the monitor room all sucked in a breath. They couldn't believe that Gabriel dared to say such harsh words to Cage.

When they heard him say "I will inherit the family and its honor," everyone involuntarily frowned.

It was true that, as long as Cage dies, Gabriel would be on the only successor as Utrecht's adopted son. The honor with which Utrecht and Cage exchanged their lives would end up in the hands of this kind of person?

"Pa!" The crisp sound echoed from the screen. They watched the screen in disbelief that Gabriel actually dared to slap Cage!

The monitor room entered a state of deathly silence, with all its occupants angered speechless. In the video, Cage lied on the hospital bed helplessly, his eyes full of anger as he glared at Gabriel. He seemed to have a thousand words to say, but was powerless to say them.

After Gabriel left, Cage stared silently at the ceiling. A layer of mist gradually formed on his dark green eyes, like he was about to shed tears. However, they never fell. It would have been better if he had cried, with the way he stifled himself making everyone feel even worse.

"How could Gabriel..." Kahn hadn't even finished his sentence when he felt a chill by his side. He saw Ravel's frigid expression, and a gaze that could drill into a person. His entire person was emitting a powerful murderous aura.

Kahn could imagine Ravel's current mood. He was such a rigid and monotonous man, and besides work there was just more work. His life was very dull, but ever since Cage's appearance, it was like a magnificent color was smeared on his world, and it was gradually being colored and brightened. It caused his entire person to become gentler.

Perhaps the man himself had not noticed how his attachment to Cage had already exceeded a normal margin. He would wholeheartedly nurse the boy everyday, and made sure that he did not get even the slightest injury. And now, the boy who he cherished like a treasure had been humiliated by another person before his eyes. How could he not be angry?

Cage could neither move nor speak. If Ravel wasn't so attentive, then the humiliation he received today may have never been discovered by anyone.

When he thought up to this point, Kahn's evaluation of Gabriel dropped to the freezing point. If they allowed this kind of person to inherit the family, it would be simply an insult toward General Utrecht and Cage.

"Kahn." Ravel suddenly spoke, "Keep an eye on Gabriel, and wait for me."

He left immediately after saying that, walking with large strides towards Cage's sickroom.
