"I'm waiting for you here, but I don't know if I'll have the courage to meet you later.... I will watch you from a distance!"

Chapter #2: The Demon King of Hell Palace

Jorge smiled silently, showing a smile full of affection as if to remember something or someone he loved most, as he stared at his vegetable garden which was starting to turn green.

Biib...biib, a notification sounded from the pocket of the worn trousers he used every day for gardening. While showing a meaningful smile, Jorge reached into his trouser pocket and saw a notification from his cellphone which looked very out of style, a completely black cellphone with keyboard buttons like old school cellphones, on the back there was a strangely shaped symbol in a blackish gold circle. Anyone who sees it will feel suffocated and have goosebumps on their spine because there are a pair of red eyes burning like flames that seem to be alive, and at the bottom of the totem there is small writing in bold letters "The Hell Palace".

Jorge looked at the short notification that appeared on the dark screen, his lips pursed and his eyes emitted a dense murderous aura. Jorge stepped into a simple wooden hut with a natural stone floor and went directly to his private 4x4 room with a simple wooden bed a wooden table and a bookshelf with a row of worn leather-cover books. There is no decoration whatsoever in the room, the furniture is also very simple but well-arranged and clean. Jorge sat in a chair in front of a table made of natural pine wood without painting. His feet tapped the floor lightly with a certain rhythm, and then suddenly the floor in the corner of Jorge's room opened. There is a small secret room on the floor measuring 1x1 m square.

A black tablet computer with the same logo as his cellphone, a black leather-bound book with the same logo, a wooden box measuring 15x20 cm, and on the edge of the box are several black plates that exude a mysterious aura, a row of iron plates in the shape of jasmine flowers with the tip of each petal pointed, all black. There are also several thin and pointed pieces of iron, only 3 mm in size, all neatly lined up.

Jorge took a black tablet and opened the screen. As soon as the screen opened, a hologram that was the same as the engraving on the back of the cellphone floated in the middle of the pitch-black screen. Jorge calmly entered a series of numbers and letters and a different screen appeared. It turned out that the notification on his cellphone was a notification if an important message had entered a special inbox that could only be accessed with the tablet he was currently holding.

Sender: Hell Viper
Message:
5 members of the Assasin Team from Blue Sky are already in position. Leader: Blue Rose level 75. Specialization: Poisonous needles
Please further instructions from the Demon King.

Jorge read the short message with a mocking and disgusted smile, then replied briefly;

Back off, I'll handle it myself.

All conversations delete themselves after 10 seconds, and all screens go blank again. Jorge closed the tablet and returned it to the secret room on the floor in the corner of his room. He didn't take anything and stomped his feet again with a certain rhythm, then slowly the secret room closed again as if there was nothing in the room.

"Blue sky huh??, a low-class organization that pretends to be big shots. It's a shame that you guys will die here". Jorge muttered to himself then stepped out and took his toiletries. At first glance, Jorge looks no different from a simple farmer who lives a simple life in a mountainous village.

Darkness slowly crept into the small town of Moonlake City, the nightlife in this city was not too busy, only a few coffee shops were open until midnight.

Jorge went out on an old second-hand bicycle and casually headed to a coffee shop for dinner. He wore simple clothes but clean, just like a native farmer of Moonlake City. The target has been locked and he only needs to monitor their every move. This evening Jorge deliberately sat and relaxed in the coffee shop in front of Pinus Hospital to monitor any anomalies. It was easy for Jorge to mark strangers, especially with his skill level, Jorge could immediately feel a different aura if they appeared within a radius of 50 meters to him.

Sure enough, not long after Jorge sat down and ordered coffee and dinner from the fried rice seller in front of the coffee shop, 5 people who looked like tourists entered the coffee shop in two groups, chose different tables but could still monitor each other. Their attitude as if they didn't know each other was quite obvious to Jorge.

From the moment they left for Moonlake City, their faces had been recorded and sent to Jorge by one of Hell Viper's subordinates.

Hell Viper is the leader of the strongest and most secret intelligence network in the world, not many people know the existence of the strongest underground world organization called "The Hell Palace". The organization that dominates the underground world, as a force that cannot be measured and cannot be investigated, has 100 members, but these 100 people are figures who are respected throughout the world and can shake up the global economy with the resources they have, it could be said that these 100 people are the most elite master in the entire world, every member is a well-trained master in all fields.

This organization does not control any resources, but whatever they need will be available in a matter of seconds because the existence of these 100 people is the largest resource of this organization. These 100 elite subordinates of the Demon King are those who have promised to live and die under Jorge's leadership.

Apart from the 100 main members, Jorge has 5 personal bodyguards who are considered life-and-death brothers. One of them is Hell Viper. The entire main force of The Hell Palace can only be driven by the Demon King and only obeys one king.

The power that is controlled by 100 elite is invisible, in their daily lives they can be farmers, office workers, CEOs of multi-national companies, small fishermen, doctors, or even street sweepers all over the world. This organization has no branches, but hundreds of organizations with resources equivalent to a small country are under the influence of The Hell Palace.

The Hell Palace could be said to be an institution that will bridge every dispute between underground powers worldwide dominate all underground forces and act as a judge in disputes between major organizations.

No one would have thought that a farmer in the small town of Moonlake, who had a simple and humble appearance, was the founder and leader of the world's strongest organization, The Hell Palace.

5 years ago, in 2150, a big conflict occurred in the Pacific and almost triggered a global nuclear war, that's when Jorge stepped in to lead 5 of his trusted people and brought 10,000 fighting forces. Fight day and night for 10 days in the Pacific Ocean. Against 2 million multi-national troops under the very strong organization called The Continental.

At that time, The Continental intended to eradicate half of the planet for reasons of new world prosperity, viruses were created and biological weapons implanted in food, livestock, and vegetables had begun to be distributed, but several underground forces did not agree. Jorge was one of the forces that disagreed, but at that time Jorge, who had no ambition to dominate the world, was not even considered to exist by The Continental.

In the end, the battle was won by Jorge, but the remaining troops were only 100 of the strongest of the strongest. The sea turned to blood and the bodies floated like an island, but the destruction of the global population was averted. The great sense of loss made Jorge sad and chose to live a normal life. However, those who knew his strength would tremble just hearing his name mentioned.

If only these five visitors knew that none of their activities escaped the attention of the Demon King, of course, they would die of fear while sitting in the coffee shop. They continued to communicate with hand codes and body movements that seemed involuntary, while they seemed to be chatting and telling stories casually.

Jorge calmly overheard the conversation between these two groups and knew the contents of their secret conversation. It turned out that they intended to put poison into the dinner that would be served to Alice at the Vulcano Hotel.

5 minutes before midnight, these two groups came out one by one, and it was very unreadable that they were one team. Jorge sat quietly as if he didn't pay attention to them at all, but after the second team who looked like a couple on their honeymoon came out, Jorge also finished his coffee paid his bill for his order, and walked out casually, but his sight and hearing were already locked on the couple who had just left. This pair is none other than Blue Rose and her trusted subordinates. They walked to the Vulcano Hotel, which is the most luxurious hotel on the edge of the small lake in Moonlake City.

Jorge deliberately pedaled his bicycle faster and caught up with the two couples. When he almost passed the two couples, Jorge waved very simply, but two black rays of light shot towards the back of the heads of Blue Rose and his men who were walking. Nothing happened, they didn't realize anything was wrong with them, it just felt like two grains of dust had hit their heads. Maybe it was sand that had splashed from the bicycle tire of the farmer who was passing them just now.

They continued walking towards the hotel where they were staying without suspecting anything. By the time they arrived at the hotel lobby, the faces of Blue Rose's men looked a little sweaty.

Blue Rose glanced at her trusted subordinates with a sneer; "You've only walked tens of meters and you're already sweating, Dusty. You're indeed getting weaker day by day".

Dusty didn't respond to anything, just snorted in annoyance and continued walking toward their room.

When they arrived at the room, Blue Rose also started to sweat a little and she swept it with her backhand and she did not think of anything unusual. Dusty was in the bathroom, and Dusty was heard vomiting something in the toilet, not long after Dusty came out and he looked a little pale.

Without looking at Blue Rose, Dusty just muttered; "Damn coffee, I became nauseous after drinking those 2 glasses". Blue Rose just snorted while showing a face full of mockery and entered the bathroom.
