Chapter 28 - The Shocked Louis

Shortly after Chuck departed, Louis turned to Allison with a look of astonishment and inquired, "Who, precisely, is Chuck Cannon? I had assumed he was just an ordinary individual. He has undergone significant changes; he is no longer the same Chuck I married. While I am uncertain about the nature of these changes, I am confident that we will navigate this together. Perhaps we should consider engaging a formidable organization to address this matter effectively. Louis expressed uncertainty regarding that matter. Regardless, the last occasion we pursued this approach did not produce the desired outcome, as evidenced by our present circumstances. 

I understand your point, but during our previous encounter, we were not adequately prepared. I will reach out to a colleague to request a referral to the most qualified professionals in this field. Having acknowledged that, let us proceed back home and strive to bring our plans to fruition. 

Upon returning home, Louis contacted a friend who subsequently connected him with the leader of the Black Wolves Gang, one of the most notorious gangs in the adjacent town. Whenever unscrupulous business owners required security, they were compelled to pay a substantial fee to the Black Wolves, after which the leader would dispatch several of his associates.

He was additionally organizing an illicit kickboxing event referred to as "the Devil's Cave," notorious for its dangerous reputation and violent outcomes..

Individuals possessing substantial wealth and the requisite bravery to witness bloodshed and lifeless forms would invest billions to secure a ticket to underground kickboxing events. While most were not simply willing to spend such sums to view the deceased in the Arena, their primary intent was to establish a favorable relationship with the Third Eyed and to cultivate favors from the man involved..

Louis placed a call that was directly connected to the leader of the Black Wolves Gang, known as Third Eyed. Those familiar with him recognized his ruthless nature, and his moniker, Third Eyed, was derived from a scar on his forehead that bore a resemblance to an eye.. 

Upon connecting the call, Louis promptly addressed the matter at hand and specified the payment amount, following the guidance provided by his friend. In response to Louis, Third Eye sought additional information regarding Chuck and subsequently requested a photograph of him. Although Louis lacked the picture, he was fortunate that Allison had it. 

She accessed her gallery on her phone and promptly shared Chuck's photograph with Louis. Without delay, Louis forwarded the image to Third Eyed, who then passed it along to his associates, instructing them to gather more information about Chuck. They quickly uncovered details about Chuck, relaying their findings back to Third Eyed in under an hour. Unbeknownst to them, Chuck was the grandson of Mr. Miller, a man renowned for his wealth and notorious temperament, flanked by elite fighters serving as his bodyguards. Among them, the most formidable was known as Daredevil, the sole recognized Level 9 fighter. 

Daredevil instilled fear in many due to his reputation as a bloodthirsty maniac who showed no fear. His notorious attack on an entire village led him to become one of the most wanted criminals by law enforcement. Furthermore, he was widely regarded as the embodiment of an anathema. The government made attempts to apprehend him, yet he proved to be relentless. Ultimately, they sought assistance from a secretive organization with esoteric knowledge. Together, they successfully subdued Daredevil, who was subsequently confined to a clandestine cell operated by this organization. Interestingly, Mr. Miller was familiar with this group, having previously worked with them. 

Consequently, upon his retirement, he became aware of Daredevil's capture, and once he was no longer affiliated with the organization, he incurred significant expenses to secure Daredevil's freedom. He felt a strong sense of indebtedness to Mr. Miller and committed himself to safeguarding him for the remainder of his life.

Numerous affluent families attempted to usurp Mr. Miller in order to appropriate his wealth for themselves. However, his bodyguards proved to be formidable, efficiently identifying the perpetrator. Upon discovering that his associates were complicit with the adversary, Mr. Miller turned to his loyal bodyguard and remarked, "The bond between fish and water reinforces my belief that betrayal is indeed a reality, particularly when I observe water aiding in the cooking of fish. We may choose to lament the thorns of rose bushes, or we may celebrate the roses that bloom among the thorns. I refuse to remain idle and bemoan the betrayal from those friends I once assisted in their ascent; having shown no remorse in colluding with my foes, they shall soon regret their actions.

They believed managing Chuck would be a straightforward endeavor. Third Eyed assured them that they could eliminate Chuck once and for all. When Louise learned of this, he was ecstatic; however, the call was suddenly disconnected. He quickly turned to Allison to share the news. Eager for a celebration, they both rushed to commemorate Chuck's impending demise, unaware that the task would prove to be far more challenging than anticipated. 

Third Eyed was not one to squander opportunities; immediately upon receipt of the wired funds, he dispatched two of his associates to eliminate Chuck, underestimating his opponent's combat abilities by sending lower-tier fighters. Meanwhile, in the office, Chuck was engaged in a discussion with Sandra when they were alerted by a disturbance outside. Two men attempted to gain access, but the entrance was secured by two bodyguards assigned to protect Chuck and Sandra. 

Chuck and Sandra exited the office to assess the situation, only to discover two individuals lying on the floor. The bodyguards had effectively neutralized the threat. Whats going on here? Chuck sought clarification, prompting one of the bodyguards to provide an account of the situation. Subsequently, Chuck instructed the bodyguards to obtain comprehensive details from the two individuals regarding their motives and the source of their arrival.

The two individuals found themselves compelled to disclose their intentions and the identity of their superior. Although Chuck and Sandra were unaware of Third Eyed's specifics, the two bodyguards had previous encounters with him, prompting them to share all they knew about Third Eyed. Nonetheless, these two lower-ranking individuals remained oblivious to the identity of the orchestrator behind the situation. Chuck subsequently contacted his grandfather to relay all pertinent information, entrusting him with the responsibility of addressing the issue on their behalf.
