Jasmine stared in disbelief, eyes wide with shock.
"Did he seriously just run away?"
Without hesitation, Alex gripped the axe tightly and swung it fiercely.
The blade spun through the air, slicing toward Hugh. But Hugh, as if sensing danger behind him, dodged swiftly to one side, narrowly escaping.
Heart pounding in desperation, Hugh sprinted toward the cover of the jungle, convinced he had cheated death.
Just steps away from safety, his body lurched violently forward, and he crashed face-first onto the dusty earth.
Pain exploded in his leg.
Glancing back, Hugh's heart sank as he saw another axe embedded in the ground behind him—and his severed ankle lying nearby, blood soaking into the dirt.
Frantic, Hugh summoned all his remaining strength, channeling his inner energy to stem the bleeding.
If he could hold out, the doctor might still salvage his limb.
"Please, please! Spare me!" Hugh wailed, his voice trembling, the bravado gone from his desperate eyes.
Alex approached slowly, his face unreadable, studying the pathetic figure on the ground.
This man—once arrogant and fierce—had folded like paper when truly tested.
"Jasmine," Alex sighed deeply, turning his gaze toward her, "It's your choice. He kidnapped you, hurt you. What happens next is up to you."
Jasmine stepped forward confidently, her smile cold and unforgiving.
"Wh-what will you do to me?" Hugh stammered, terror gripping him.
His mind raced. How had he fallen so far? He was a level-50 powerhouse, unstoppable in every battle he'd fought.
Yet here he was, helpless before some nobody kid.
Who was this guy?
"You know, Hugh," Jasmine said calmly, leaning over him slightly, "I warned you about Alex. I told you exactly how dangerous he was, but you didn't believe me."
She flashed a chilling smile. "Alex, would you mind making sure he'll never forget today? Shatter his knee."
"With pleasure," Alex replied coolly, stepping next to Hugh and delivering a casual but brutally powerful kick.
Hugh screamed, agony tearing through him as the bone in his knee shattered.
"I was wrong!" Hugh gasped desperately, tears streaming down his face. "Jasmine, I believe you now! Your man is powerful—he's unbeatable! Please forgive me!"
Jasmine crouched, looking directly into Hugh’s desperate eyes.
"If you truly want forgiveness, Hugh, prove it. How much is your miserable life worth to you?"
"Wh-what?" Hugh stammered, his mind racing.
"You heard me. Put a price tag on your life," Jasmine said sharply.
"A million dollars?" Hugh offered weakly, desperation clear in his shaky voice.
"A million dollars?" Jasmine scoffed dismissively. "If that's all you're worth, then I'll gladly send the money to your father—and end your life here. Cheap revenge."
"Ten million?" Hugh quickly corrected, panic rising.
Jasmine shook her head slowly, unimpressed. "My revenge is worth far more."
"A hundred million?" Hugh’s voice cracked, his fear evident.
"For bashing my head, causing me all this pain? I'd rather watch you die," Jasmine whispered icily.
"A billion dollars!" Hugh shouted desperately, face pale and soaked with sweat.
"Interesting, but you can do better," Jasmine teased cruelly.
"Seven billion," Hugh pleaded desperately, his voice barely audible now.
Jasmine bit her lower lip thoughtfully, then gave a cunning smile. "So close, Hugh. How about we make it a round ten billion? I'll let you walk—or rather, crawl—away."
"I-I only have seven billion," Hugh whimpered.
"Done," Jasmine declared coldly.
"Alex, take his other leg. Seven billion dollars is perfect since he won’t need legs where he's going."
Alex raised the axe once more, its blade gleaming ominously, as Hugh’s screams filled the air.
