Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

When Zachary saw Armand coming, he immediately propped up his body and faced him.

"Since you have enough strength to hurt the elders of my clan on your own, it's clear I've underestimated you! Had your father been alive, he would have been very proud of you," Armand sneered.

"Yes, my father would have been proud, because your death will be on my hands," Zachary retorted, showing no sign of weakness.

"While I must admit you have done better than I expected, but you still don't stand a chance against me. Sending you to your father in the hell would be much easier for me,"

ned the life out of Armand's face. He hadn't anticipated that Zachary would find him. Brock was the only man alive who could testify against him. Armand had always planned on killing Brock, but as his obvious scapegoat, it served him best to keep him alive. He'd ensured his imprisonment and kept him in seclusion, thinking he was safe. Clearly, he had been wrong.

"Who is this?" Barney asked while looking at Brock.

"Sir, this is Brock, a former elder of the Zi Clan. Armand had bribed him into allowing the murderer to enter the clan and kill my father," Zachary explained.
