Another World Mall

Natasha thought she had prepared enough to gauge the Libation Fiesta’s strength. But it looked like she hadn’t.
The Dark Moon Mercenary was an organization that couldn’t be underestimated by any country.
Even her company wouldn’t be capable of stopping them due to the deep connections that the Dark Moon Mercenary had.
And with the Libation Fiesta supporting her or the Ardagan family backing her, it was almost certain that Vina would become the next Dark Supreme.
Gongho couldn’t help but grit his teeth. His mercenary group was definitely not the Dark Moon Mercenary’s match.
However, he still couldn’t admit his defeat. He shouted, "Who cares whether you are from the Dark Moon Mercenary or not? Don’t forget that you are not the Dark Supreme. If you end up antagonizing the Silver Crystal Group before becoming the Dark Supreme, won’t it be bad for you?"
Gongho was indirectly implying that he could use his strength to hinder Vina from becoming the next Dark Supreme.
"Oh my, is that a threat?" Vina smiled.
"You should be the one answering that question." Gongho snorted. "Besides, what we want is not much. We just want to have a sparring match with a famous man. Or is he so afraid of us that he doesn’t dare to accept our challenge? It’s not like we are asking for a life-and-death battle."
Gongho let out a hollow laugh as if he was trying to mock Clovis.
Vina remained calm.
...
30 minutes ago.
"We have bad news, very bad news."
"What’s wrong?" Clovis asked.
"There are people coming to the forest. One of them has been identified. Iskandar Anatas. However, the rest is still unknown. I’m assuming that their goal is you this time, Clovis."
Clovis paused for a moment. "That’s indeed very serious. We are on our way back right now, but it will still take hours to arrive, and it’s not like our group is in a condition to fight either."
"I will try to buy you some time, but I don’t know how to handle this problem. The other party must be trying their best to challenge you or something."
"What if you exhaust everything you have?"
"I can probably do it. But this also means revealing my own identity as well as my connection to you. This might make the succession battle a bit harder. After all, many of the Ardagan family’s enemies will think that the Dark Moon Mercenary has colluded with the Ardagan family."
Clovis just smiled wryly. It looked like Vina didn’t know that the Dark Supreme was actually the right-hand man of Michael Hacfield.
Then again, it might not be so bad to have Vina like his grandfather having the Dark Supreme. Besides, it looked like his great-grandmother was using Vina as an extension of her hand.
Clovis carefully thought about it before saying, "In that case, I will take responsibility for it. Reveal your identity if you have to. I will be there as quickly as possible. Even if it’s going to be harder, I promise you will become the next Dark Supreme."
"Since I have received your word, I will do it."
...
Vina couldn’t help but smile. Now that there was nothing holding her back anymore, she could definitely do a lot of things.
However, she didn’t bring her subordinates to this country, so there was no way she could afford to clash.
In that case, there was only one method that she could use after revealing her identity.
Vina took out a golden badge. "Do you know what this is?"
Gongho raised his voice. "Do you think a mere badge can stop us?"
"Stop!" Natasha suddenly shouted. Her complexion had abruptly changed after seeing that badge. "My company just wants to witness the rising star Clovis Hacfield. However, if the latter doesn’t wish to show his prowess, then we will respect your decision."
"!!!" Gongho and Iskandar couldn’t help but furrow their eyebrows. They had agreed to go together, but Natasha kept being a snake.
And it looked like she was scared of the badge.
Natasha was sweating profusely as her face became pale, thinking, ’Is that badge real? How can a mere successor possess that badge? No, don’t drag me down with all of you if you are going to do this.
’My father will disown me if we end up getting targeted by the Global Ghost Order.’ Natasha gulped down. ’From what I heard, our family was able to become the second best in the world due to this Global Ghost Order.
’I don’t know the full story, but it was said that the Stel Neven Archive was involved in it. In just a month, various scandals at the previous company had surfaced and caused the entire company to become unstable, resulting in our family devouring it.
’To get this badge, my father had sacrificed a lot. Only those in business knew how much this badge was worth. For a company, it’s our worst nightmare. Meanwhile, a mercenary group and a powerful family might be able to withstand that storm, but that’s not something my family can afford.’
Natasha knew that she should back down no matter what. What she didn’t realize was that this kind of weapon could be given to Vina as long as Clovis wanted it.
Vina received it simply as an assurance because this mission was given directly by the one controlling the Stel Neven Archive.
"Natasha. You!" Iskandar gnashed his teeth, glaring at her. "If you back down from this, I will annul our engagement."
Natasha’s body shook. She was facing a dilemma. On the one hand, Iskandar might be able to become a Tier 9 human in the future. The Global Ghost Order wouldn’t necessarily hurt him. On the other hand, her family would be finished, and Iskandar might divorce her at that point because she had lost her usefulness.
Whether it was fortunate or not, it looked like they had bought enough time.
Sirens echoed from a distance. Police, military vehicles, and the car from the Hatson family had finally arrived.
"Please stop this!" A man in his early fifties came out, showing 3 silver stars on his shoulder.
