Chapter 108: The Silent Killer

"Attack him where he is unprepared. Appear where you are not expected." - Sun Tzu

The toast has been risen. The victor has been chosen.

The fight has already been decided before it began.

TRIGGER WARNING: This chapter contains explicit language and mass murder. An extreme viewer discretion is advised.

The faint sound of the bells and the familiar cold feeling awakened the senses of a certain pink haired who just opened his eyes feeling numb all over. He took his seat and when he looked around, he is still inside the cell that contains him. 

So the setup from yesterday was all real. And the fact that one of the reasons why he's here is because of a certain brunette who helped bring them in Paradiso's palm.

"Man, this sucks." They heard Mochi grumble.

"I can't believe we will get stuck in this hellhole again." Ran says while looking at the small window found at the corner of their room. Being in a cold chamber like this reminds him of when he was in the juvenile and when he was sent into prison together with the S-62 members years ago.

"Just one night is seriously fucked up." This time, Rindou added.

"We should at least attend their wedding, don't you guys think?" All eyes turned to Koko who said that while eating. That's right, their breakfast was already delivered to them early. But only Koko seems to be the only one who enjoys their food.

"Are you serious right now?" Takeomi asks with an annoyed look.

"Yes. I want to witness the wedding of the century." He added and munched again.

But as if his plea is heard, one guard came in their chamber again...

"The Boss said to eat. You will be brought to the Grand Garden at ten this morning."

"You guys hear that? We're invited." Koko said again with a sarcastic grin, still munching on his food.

Meanwhile, the rest sighed restlessly. 

Minutes after, they were all brought in different vans with a blind fold and with their hands and feet cuffed. Surrounding each of them during their transport are ten armed Paradiso men. It took them about thirty minutes to get to their destination. As soon as the boys' blindfolds were removed, they immediately feasted their eyes with the huge and extravagant garden with a dome in the middle, decorated with vintage touch. 

It was as if Fall has come early in the Grand Garden with the fallen leaves on the ground, harmonized with the greeneries around. The wedding's theme is 'Folklore', which perfectly match the wedding in a garden surrounded with trees, flowers, and nature. Beige lanterns and ornaments, vintage lamps, wooden chairs and aesthetic antiques fill the whole venue. There is a white floral carpet in the middle that leads to the beautiful altar in front.

The guests are all starting to gather one by one which were all dressed formally according to the theme. Some were talking. Some were drinking wine. Some were simply appreciating the solemnity of the sudden yet delightful occasion. They all similarly cannot wait to meet the groom and bride who made their congenial gathering possible.
