***** “Tsk… look at this slave, he is here again.” “Dang! What’s this fool doing here early this morning? Why can’t he just go to another of his menial jobs instead of coming and taking all the available jobs for himself.” “Argh!!! I’m so furious, and I’ve already made plans for today’s income. Would it not mean that I will go home with little to no cash today, as the manager would most definitely give him more than half of the deliveries we have today to do?” As soon as Ares entered the delivery company’s building, he was noticed by all his colleagues, and without bothering to lower their voices, they began to moan with rage, while glaring hatefully at Ares. Since this wasn’t a new thing to him again, Ares acted as though he did not hear them while keeping a straight face and focusing his attention only on where he was going. He was already used to theirs and the hatred of his colleagues for all the jobs he did. Their animosity towards him stemmed not from three reasons other

The obese supervisor, whose intestines had been thrown into a state of chaos by the recent assault, and who was still trying to figure out where it had come from, was suddenly dumbstruck.He couldn’t even process the agonizing pain he was feeling in his body right now, as he witnessed a scene that terrified him to the core.It wasn’t only him.All the staff members, the group of soldiers, and even Ares himself were astounded beyond expression, though at that moment, Ares found himself the most dumbfounded of them all.He couldn’t believe his senses, and also, his shock was so sudden that he failed to process it.Naturally, he also recognizes this person.Before now, he had been paralyzed with fear, realizing that he was being unjustly accused and forced to take responsibility for actions he had not committed. But now, he couldn't even react at all.“Grandmaster! You are finally found!” Seeming not to notice Ares’s expression at all as he was too excited right now, the elderly man sobb

***** ‘Dang! That was scary. I’m sure I would not have escaped there alive if that old man had returned to his senses before I fled.’ Currently walking through the alleyways and short-cuts he usually walked to and from work in order to cut his expenses to the very minimum, so that he could spend the rest on Sarah, Ares had a relieved expression on his face as he sighed, still scared from imagining what would have happened if he had allowed himself be captured.‘But come to think of it,’ his face abruptly furrowed with pity. ‘With that old man’s fame and wealth, ranking amongst the top ten wealthiest people in Rex City, who would have thought he has such a sickness upstairs? This would definitely cause a huge storm in the city.’ Ares once again sighed and then he shook his head, pitying the nice old man, who had even helped him take the revenge he might not have been able to take even in the next few years. With another sigh, he unexpectedly entered the woods, which was the fastest

*****“Where is this guy? What’s taking him so long to bring back a mere fucking little human being to this young master?”Mason’s eyes were incredibly dark at this moment as he grumbled to himself.Due to the delay, he, someone who seldom remains at home, had been inside since he returned from where he went that morning.He had repeatedly envisioned all the torments he planned to inflict upon Ares, both physically, spiritually, and emotionally, once he was brought to him.Despite knowing that the addicted Jackal would have likely already consumed a significant portion of Ares's soul and vitality, he remained undeterred in his plans. In fact, he intentionally tasked Jackal with the mission in order to inflict torture upon Ares first before delivering him. “I won’t forgive that dude if he so much tries to finish that bastard. He should just not return to this place if he has done that.”Mason’s voice suddenly became darker as he recalled the countless mistakes that Jackal had be

***** As soon as Ares opened his eyes, a dense and suffocating atmosphere emanated from them. Despite the stillness of the surroundings and the absence of wind, the trees suddenly began to shake violently, as if they were struggling to uproot themselves and flee. It did not stop there, the sudden presence was so heavy and oppressive to the extent that all the dead trees in the area directly shattered into powder and were blown away. This scene was so enchanting that it would have caused ordinary people to tremble and kneel in reverence to the heavens, believing it to be the work of a divine being if they had witnessed it. Unfortunately or fortunately, depending on perspective, only a few birds and animals, already frightened into fleeing for their lives, along with Ares were present to witness it. In an instant, Ares, who had been lying motionless on the ground, hidden beneath dried leaves like a corpse shot up with an incredible speed that could not be seen with the eye. T
