2. A Threatening Message First Mission

"Position two-one. La Deric'O is a club owned by Javer that is often used as a drug dealership. All agents stay in position, watch the target, don't let your guard down.

"Vica, get his attention as hard as you can. The other agents will go in to attack the club. Create a ruckus that could cause inconvenience. Do as planned. Do you all understand?"

While looking at Javer who was preparing with the cards in his hand, Vica smiled. Not at Javer, but in response to the voice in the earpiece that was plugged into his ear.

Vica noticed that one of the men standing not far from her made a winking gesture and clapped his hands twice near his ears. His gesture was pretending to catch a mosquito, while answering the call on his earpiece.

Neither Javer nor any of the Guvero cartel members realized that Vica and the other men were police agents.

They were all trying to pull off a disguise.

"How much do you want to bet?"

Vica turned her attention back to Javer after hearing the man's voice. The cards were already in Javer's hand.

"Oh, that's right. I brought the money for the bet now," he said then gave the code to one of the bodyguard men.

Soon three suitcases were brought to Vica. One of them was taken by Vica and placed on the table. The other two suitcases were then placed on the table. The suitcases were opened one by one until they clicked.

"Five billion dollars," Vifa said after opening all three suitcases, moving back and watching Javer closely.

Javer didn't react with surprise. But his gaze looked dubiously at Vica's money.

"Can you be sure you're risking that much?" Javer asked, then turned to look at Vica. "They're not fake money, are they?"

Vica frowned. "Why the doubt? Why is all this just fake money? Are you doubting my wealth?"

"I don't even care who you are," Javer replied as he shrugged his shoulders indifferently.

On the other hand, almost all the other cartel men were staring in amazement at the amount of money in the three suitcases. When the clan leader was about to touch the money, Vica brushed him off roughly. Vica's boldness immediately drew surprised looks from the cartel leader's bodyguards.

"You dare me?" the cartel chief said, looking fiercely at Vica.

"You can't touch this because it's not yours," Vica said without hesitation.

Just as the cartel chief was about to move forward towards Vica, the sound of bullets being activated came from behind Vica. As soon as she turned around, Vica's eyebrows shot up as she saw Javer pointing a gun at the cartel leader.

Javer's gaze was menacing. Instantly, the head of the enemy cartel canceled his intention to forcefully attack Vica. He retreated back to his seat.

Vica smiled sweetly at Javer. "Thank you, sir," she replied somewhat mockingly in her last call to Javer.

Javer put his gun back down. His face showed absolutely no emotion, or interest whatsoever. Vica's words received no response. Javer repeated the motion of shuffling the cards.

Not getting an answer to the question about money, Vica snorted in disgust. Vica lowered his body again. Meanwhile, Javer began to place one card after another in front of the clan chief and Vica. After dealing a number of cards in front of himself and Vica, Javer laid out the remaining stack of cards.

"You go first," Javer ordered Vica.

The clan leader frowned in disapproval. "Why-"

"I don't take no for an answer." Javer gave the Guvero Clan elder a cold stare. "If you're afraid, then back off and stay away from this club."

Of course, the Guvero Clan leader did not want to comply. As Javer spoke his threat, Vica noticed the sharpness of the frown lines on the man's forehead. A smile formed on Vica's face.

"Position three-two. Ready your weapons as planned."

Vica looked at the opponent in front of him with a smirk and a probing gaze. One card was placed on the table as a first step. He did not look at all intimidated by his opponent, a Guvero Clan chief.

"You can't win," said the Guvero Clan chief after laying down a counterattack card.

Vica's sardonic smile was etched. "You took out the king card at the beginning. It was a very hasty and very predictable move."

In his seat, Javer who was sitting with one foot on top of the other raised both eyebrows. Vica's words caught his attention a little. The more he paid attention to Vica's movements, which seemed detailed and careful, but still looked relaxed.

"Who exactly is this woman?" thought Javer as he watched Vica.

"In a matter of ten seconds, everything moves from the original point to the designated location."

Vica pretended to rub the back of one ear, where her earpiece was placed. The voice was an order from someone he had appointed as the team coordinator. Vica cleared his throat briefly, signaling his understanding of the order.

It was his team's code of agreement.

"...nine, eight, seven..."

Vica continued the game calmly. Meanwhile, Javer began to feel something was off. From the back came the faint screech of a female male fan. Javer tried to maintain his focus on Vica's game. But his concentration was interrupted by the screech.

"Damn it. Why are they screaming?!" Javer was finally voiceless, rising up.

Vica and the Guvero Clan leader's attention was diverted. Javer's jaw hardened looking outside.

"Those people! We're going to save them, why can't they shut up?!"

Javer had just stood up from his seat. But coincidentally, the voice from Vica's earpiece was heard.

"...two, one, DO IT NOW!"

A second after that, the sound of bullets being fired rang out. The atmosphere turned chaotic. Javer's body jerked back as he covered his ears as he heard the many bullets being fired.

In total, there were probably more than five pistols.

The sound of plates being activated could be heard from inside this room. Javer and Vica simultaneously turned their heads towards several Guvero Clan bodyguards who already had guns in their hands. Suddenly, Javer's bodyguards reacted in the same way: activating the triggers and firing back at their opponents.

Javer was wide-eyed. Only his trusted bodyguard, Fed, hadn't pulled the trigger yet, but was already spreading his arms to protect Javer.

"What's going on?!" shouted the Guvero Clan leader. "You want to frame us?!"

"They're deliberately planning to attack us!"

"Yes! They're setting us up!"

Javer gritted his teeth when he heard the Guvero Clan members' exclamation after being provoked by the chief. But before Javer could say anything, someone appeared from the doorway. He stumbled in as if carrying some very bad news.

"Lord Javer! There's been an attack in the downstairs area!"

Everyone in the room, with the exception of Vica, had a look of incomprehension on their faces. The most incomprehensible was Javer. Unfortunately, there was no time for silence.

"We didn't attack you," Javer said to the Guvero Clan members. "Or did you bring an army?!"

"You think we're all losers?!" the Guvero Clan leader retorted without lowering the gun from either hand. His jaw hardened until lines of veins formed. "I will not spare you!"

Javer took the pistol from inside his coat pocket. A pull of the trigger instantly launched a bullet at a Guvero Clan bodyguard. Suddenly, it startled the lwan clan.

"You attacked us?!"

Seconds after that, fighting broke out. The atmosphere turned chaotic. Javer's bodyguard men ran straight at the Guvero Clan members after they advanced first. Meanwhile, the sound of gunfire from outside continued to emerge.

Vica took advantage of everyone being caught off guard to quickly place an artificial sand ball in the corner of the room. She quickly slipped between the quarreling men, but one of the Guvero Clan members intercepted her.

"You're one of them, aren't you?"

Vica raised both eyebrows. No need to fight back, Vica's male bodyguard-who was also a police agent-had already stood behind the Guvero Clan member to elbow him hard in the nape of the neck. The bodyguard hurriedly pulled Vica's hand away, followed by two other bodyguards who were secret agents as well.

"Check. How's the plan going?"

With an arch of a sniff in between gasps of alarm at the chaotic atmosphere around her, Vica replied, "Mission one was successful, Chief. The room will be blown up soon."
