A Healer’s Journey

Chapter 6 Alisha Wahlstrom

hand your property over to me and have your sister keep me company for a few days.” “You want me to just hand over my house and my sister?” “That’s right! Otherwise, I will kill you and the rest of your family! Oh, and we’ll be sure to take turns with your sister before killing her!” Python replied with a smug grin. There was a cold glint in Finnegan’s eyes as he exuded a terrifying aura. He cared the most about his family, so Python was as good as dead to Finnegan the moment he threatened to hurt them. Python shuddered when he felt the same chilling sensation from earlier that day. “Hey, kid, I suggest you—” Swoosh! Finnegan cut him off with a slap that was as fast as lightning. Not only was Python sent flying from the impact, but it even knocked out all of his teeth. Finnegan followed up with a roundhouse kick, knocking four of the nearest thugs down to the ground. Before the fifth thug even realized what was going on, Finnegan had knocked him out with a powerful hook to the jaw. All of that happened in less than two seconds. “What the f*ck are you all standing around for? Get him! Hack him to pieces and finish his family off!” Python shouted while covering his toothless mouth with one hand as he lay on the ground, all curled up in pain. Having been snapped out of their dazed state, the dozens of thugs quickly raised their weapons and surrounded Finnegan. Finnegan opened his left palm, revealing thin silver needles that he had been concealing. Unlike the typical silver needles that were used for treatments in acupuncture, that needle was a weapon designed specifically for killing. As eight of the thugs slashed at Finnegan with their machetes, he swung his left hand and tossed eight of those silver needles at them. The silver needles quickly buried themselves deep within the thugs’ bodies and disappeared almost instantly. The next thing they knew, the eight thugs had collapsed to the ground and were convulsing violently while frothing at their mouths. What the… What just happened? What the f*ck did he just do to them? Python shuddered in fear as he shouted, “Get him! All of you, attack at the same time!” While the thugs were still frozen in shock, Finnegan spun around in circles and continued tossing out the silver needles with pinpoint accuracy. Soon, dozens of thugs were convulsing on the ground and frothing at the mouth like rabid dogs. Python swallowed a mouthful of blood and saliva as his face turned pale. He was trembling uncontrollably in fear. When Finnegan shifted his gaze to him, Python quickly got on his knees and begged for mercy, saying, “P-Please spare my life, Sir! I won’t cause you any more trouble! Besides, I work for Leo, so you can’t afford to hurt me anyway!” He was in so much fear that he would say anything to save his life. Finnegan simply stood there in silence with his arms behind his back. Fearing that he would end up like the rest of his men, Python continued to kneel and didn’t dare make any sudden moves. A few minutes later, a bright red Ferrari and a Hummer came speeding toward them. “That’s Leo’s car!” Python exclaimed in joy when he saw the Hummer in the back. Thinking he no longer had a reason to fear Finnegan, he stood up and said gleefully, “As I said, I work for Leo, and Leo is Mr. Calandrino’s right-hand man! You’re done for this time!” Finnegan simply let out a nonchalant chuckle without saying a word. The two cars pulled up beside them one after the other, and a gorgeous woman in a red dress stepped out of the car. “Whoa! I’ve never seen a woman that hot before! Did Leo find himself a new girlfriend?” Python said while ogling the woman. A man with tanned skin and an icy-cold expression got out of the Hummer shortly after. The look on his face changed the moment he heard Python’s remark. He ran forward and sent Python flying with a swift kick to the chest. “Do you have a death wish or something? You’re talking about Ms. Wahlstrom!” Python’s face was filled with fear as he coughed up a mouthful of blood. “Ms. Wahlstrom? Y-You mean…” Leonardo Terrano shot him a fierce glare as he said, “She’s Alisha Wahlstrom of the Wahlstrom family in Bellridge!” Alisha Wahlstrom of the Wahlstrom family in Bellridge? That means she’s the granddaughter of Theoden Wahlstrom, the head of the underworld of Walund in the Southern Region! Even Tyrone
