Ace of Spades: Evil Male Reader! Insert {Volume 2} UPRISING

Chapter XX: Tactics of the Extreme

The white-suited man dropped dead at the count of 10, foaming from the mouth, just like I had planned, after all the poison I had saved from back at the Serenity had to be useful in some way to me. Everyone turned a shocked eye towards him, I held a champagne bottle I had grabbed from the tables and smashed it onto the ground as hard as I could. Everyone gasped and looked at me with shock on their face.

Me: Greetings people of Atlas. I hope you're having a wonderful time at this little banquet we have going on right now. I hope I am not interrupting any... events that the party had on going...

One of the men pointed his finger at me, his face sweating with distress.

Man: I-it's him! The Ace of Spades!

Everyone backed away from me, Lilith stayed in the crowd with the Schnee boy, but her expression told me she already knew I was back. Plus, I know these people are going to try and escape, let's play around with their fears a bit.

Me: In the flesh... Obviously you're a bright one, my helium has not worn off yet, so you must be familiar with my face.

Man: You're dead!

Me: Okay, you're dumb again... Does it look like I'm dead!!?

I ask-yelled, while obviously waving around the empty vial of poison around I had used on Mr. Schnee.

Man: Hey! What's that!?

He pointed, everyone exclaimed in horror when I provided them with the answer.

Me: Perhaps you'd like to know this other part, You see, this vial, is full of a very strong poison I had used to lace all of your drinks with, and you've seen what happened to poor Jacques Schnee there, you should have a valid image of what is to happen to you should you try and escape this complex.

A woman then responded to my claim, albeit not how I wanted.

Woman: You're lying! How could you have done that!?

I simply gave a disappointed stare in the direction I had heard the voice.

Me: Am I?

I asked, nobody dared to contradict. I assumed that Aurora, Gary and Jack had already done their end of Keikaku. So not taking advantage of the current situation seemed almost criminal if I did.

Me: Speaking of which I'll reveal the true intentions of my little endeavour, since I have ALL of you here as my captive audience, I must request all of you to order your own party-thrower to blow up EVERY single dust reserve there is under the Schnee Dust Company.

I eyed up Winter, who just stood her ground, looking back at me.

Winter: You all possibly cannot give in to this terrorist's demands! Surely not!

Man: We value our money daughter of Schnee! And our lives, the money we've invested through generations will mot go to waste to petty crooks and street rats!

Me: Tick tock richies, don't you want the antidote?

I asked, while smiling. Schnee couldn't do anything, nobody could. Under constant pressure by people who used to be her father's closest friends, their love for their lives and of course money... one of Schnee's biggest ally, was in the end my greatest tool against him.

Winter: Fine, Spade then. You win. I'll order my employees to destroy the deposits.

He said, opening his scroll and placing it to his ear, though I pulled out the Colt Single Action I had chosen as my new sidearm, not as good as Ironwod's Pistol but it'll have to do for now.
