Jorg sneered.
He looked down to see Aria curled up from fear and reached out to pick her up before flinging her outside the room as if she were a ball.
"Go!" he barked. "Gather everyone around the residence here. I might even spare your lives if I'm in a good mood, but if you run…"
Eron panicked as Jorg's black machete inched toward him, and he promptly yelled at Aria, "Go! Do what Mr. Zayas said. Tell everyone it's my order! Just go!"
However, just as Aria pushed herself off the ground, she saw Gorde's decapitated body just beside her.
She promptly started yelling and fleeing like mad.
Eron almost suffered a stroke right then. "Dumb bitch!"
"Are you really running?"
On the other hand, once Jorg saw what Aria was doing, he waved his hand.
Vigor was refined into pure vigor instantly, launched into the distance and shattering Aria's shoulders.
Aria screamed, clutching her shoulders that were now a bloody pulp before collapsing on the ground, her fate uncertain.
Jorg then turned toward the trembling Shane. "Go on, boy, or it'd be worse for you."
Shane scrambled outside without another word, yelling as he ran down the hallway, "Everyone! Assemble at the guest room! Mr. Eron White's orders!"
Jorg actually nodded in approval at Shane's tactfulness, while Eron stared fixedly at Jorg.
He tried to smile, but he would have looked better crying. "M-Mr. Zayas… So what have we done to warrant this? I've even met your high elder just days ago—he promised that once Frank Lawrence is dead, he would take my daughter to meet Maron Ocean… Wait, could Frank have managed to escape?"
It was just a phone call—plenty of time for killing once he confirmed his orders.
And considering that Eron could not stir up trouble, Jorg nodded.
"Fine, you can have your phone call… But you only have one minute, and I'm killing you if you try anything funny." He grinned darkly as he pressed his machete against Eron's neck.

Kim was just locked in her own room when she heard Shane yelling outside.
Before she could say a word, however, her servants dragged her outside to the assembly point. There, she found every retainer working in White Hall along with the livestock for some reason.
Even her ailing, terminally ill grandfather was brought there.
