The commotion surely had drawn everyone\'s attention by now.

…

On the other side..

Max and Preston were already gone by now, and their seats were empty. They had heard Travis\'s scream as well, as the announcement from the assassin who had claimed to take his head.

Synthia didn\'t seem to care about the incident at all.

On the other hand, Erina had a little frown on her face. She didn\'t care about Travis, after all, she wasn\'t the naive girl she used to be. She knew the reality of her family.

But, she currently had another thought in her head which made her frown. It was actually the voice of the assassin. She felt that the voice was a bit familiar. She knew that the assassin had tried to change his voice, and even at that, there had to be a trace of the original voice mixed within it.

\'Why does it feel so familiar?\' Erina\'s frown deepened, and she too moved out of her seat with Synthia.

…

When the group arrived at the place of the incident, they saw a bloody Travis being carried out to be provided with medical treatment.

One of the guards was still there with Travis, while the other had moved to pursue Axel.

At this moment, a person suddenly appeared at the scene. It was actually an old man. He was the one who had saved Travis back then. If not, he would surely be dead. Actually, the old man wasn\'t even in the building, he had gone for a stroll to meet a friend.

How could he have known that someone would actually dare to create trouble in this place?

Did they not know who owned this place?

It was the Trade Union.

Hell, even the Association and Guild Union had to give them face. Even though they weren\'t a noble house, their power wasn\'t something that could be taken lightly. They could collapse the entire economy, even make the Noble Houses starve to death. And, this was still, not considering their firepower. After all, they didn\'t lack mages among their ranks, especially with the money they had, they could even hire a whole noble house to do a job for them.

And, on top of that, did they forget who led the Trade Union?

It was the Zatra Family.

Even though this was a current generation power house, which only rose to power recently unlike the Noble Houses, it definitely wasn\'t the one to be trifled with.

Why?

It was because of the Monster named, Harness Zatra.

Just like Max, this mad man had once smashed all the young geniuses during his time making and stood tall above all. And, he didn\'t come from any Nobel House, but a merchant family.

His name was not very well known, as during that time, communication was a difficult issue, and the Noble Houses had suppressed his reputation to save their own. But, even now most of the adults remembered him.

This man, after all, had smashed so many young geniuses that it was difficult to count, and on top of that these geniuses actually included the current Lords of all the Noble Houses. Hell, even the Ancient Families actually had a good relationship with him, as he had even gone head on against the geniuses from the Ancient Families who were a little older than him.

This certainly solidified his position as the expert with the strongest potential in the current era. Nobody would like to get on the bad side of such a person.

Zatra\'s seemed to realize this too. Hence, he knew that it was wrong for him to get involved in any kind of power struggle. Hence, he took on his family business and concentrated on it while slowly disappearing from the public eye.

But, that didn\'t mean that people had forgotten about him.

"The higher ups would surely be angry this time.." The old man muttered under his breath. It had been a while since someone had provoked them like this.

Preston on the other had a slight frown on his face. Today\'s outing was actually his idea, so it could be said that he had lost face by failing to protect Travis. This assassination might be targeted on Travis, but it sure had done the job of slapping Preston\'s face.

Obviously, this guy had no idea that it wasn\'t a coincidence at all. This was someone\'s deliberate planned move.

\'Why didn\'t you interfere?\' Preston passed a message to his guard.

\'It was useless. The fool could have been saved from how the situation had developed. But, I didn\'t think that he would jump and take the bullet on himself..\' His guard replied helplessly. He didn\'t act because he saw that the situation had turned for the better, and from the looks of it, it didn\'t need his meddling. But, Travis\'s next action sure had left him speechless.

Since Travis was in that condition, they definitely couldn\'t continue ahead. And, they left with him to see his condition.

Max on the other hand, took a slight pause as he was about to enter the car, and in that moment, a shadow seemed to separate from his body, and darted out in the alleys. He obviously couldn\'t be at ease, and had to see that Axel made it out safely. After all, one of the guards was in pursuit. And, if he was caught, that would certainly be a disaster for him.

Max\'s eyes met with Eren who was on his way out, and he slightly nodded at him as the guy quietly left along with the crowd.
