David’s legs had begun to pace around, his body felt uneasy and his eyes were fixed on the door awaiting Allen’s arrival, his hands folded, he wasn’t sure what news Allen would bring.“Sir, Mr Allen is here to see you,” the young woman at the door said softly “Let him in” David answered, his voice deep as he sat down. Allen walked in calmly, his face not showing any expression “Good morning Sir” he said walking to his desk and giving him a handshake.The two men exchanged pleasantries “Please, have a seat” David said gesturing that Allen should have the seat in front of him “Thank you” Allen answered having a seat while adjusting his suit.“Well then, to business, what is it that couldn’t wait” David asked as though he hadn’t cared for the information “I felt that I should tell you this, as you know, I’m still trying to get used to the system,” Allen said in a low tone.“But something happened today, something not in the books you had given me, I thought it to be rare and maybe you wo
Adam watched his son as he waited patiently for his father’s response “How dare you come here?” Allen asked again his eyes glaring at his father.“What do you mean by that son? Am I not allowed into your home?” He asked, his eyes had become teary “Well, did you think to come back, before my mother died? No, so why are you back here?” Allen asked not wanting to get his explanation.“Who let them in?” Allen asked, the maids bowing their heads to avoid his wrath “I did, brother” Stephanie said coming from the kitchen “And why? Our father is dead to us, remember? He abandoned us to get with his mistress and birth that thing there” Allen said agitatedly.“He’s still our father,” she said almost in a yell “Well he’s not my father, I can guarantee that,” He said before walking off “Oh, and Steph, you’re handling them, that includes his wife and daughter but they better be gone before I’m awake from my nap” he added storming off to his room.“Please have a seat,” Stephanie said, her eyes wit
The clear morning skies seemed beautiful from the window, Allen had woken up happy and somewhat fulfilled, the last few days had taken a toll on his body and now he was ready to rest.“Allen, breakfast!!” Stephanie said in a high tone “You seem to be happy cooking” Allen said rushing down to the kitchen “Why won’t you let the maids cook instead?” He asked her taking a slice of bread in his mouth.“And you seem happier this morning, seems like someone woke up on the right side of the bed this time around,” she said smiling, serving her brother some of the omelets she had made.“Well, I do feel a bit energetic, after meeting Adam and his family yesterday, I realized that what goes around does come around,” he said, having a sip of the cup of tea on the table.“Oh come on brother, we’ve talked about this” Stephanie said rolling her eyes as she spread the butter on the bread “Father is still family,” she said “He didn’t consider us family when mother was ill,” Allen said stuffing his mout
Allen smiled as he entered his car, his hands firm on the steering “Ultimate does have a large range of powers, even I’m shocked” he said to himself smiling.“Good morning Allen” The voice on the speaker said, “Good morning, Mr David, how may I help you?” Allen inquired thinking to himself the reason why he was called so early.“Is there anything different you’ve noticed about Ultimate?” David asked, his voice wasn’t so clear “Uh no, I haven’t seen anything that could be strange, is anything the matter?” Allen responded trying to hide the fact that Ultimate had indeed changed, more like upgraded.“Oh okay, if there’s anything that seems strange, do not hesitate to let me know,” David said before hanging up the phone. Allen drives his car thinking, ‘What could he have meant by different? He doesn’t know that I now have new powers as well, does he suspect me?” Allen thought to himself.“I don’t think he’s telling you the truth,” William said calmly watching David “Allen wouldn’t lie, re
Allen sat on the couch, a hand across his face, in a moment of thought ‘Did Ultimate know about the guy in the dark? Who is he trying to show me?’ Allen thought to himself, his eyes wandering about the room.“Please have some tea” William suggested placing the cup right in front of him “Thank you” Allen replied, taking the cup to his lips “So what is the auspicious occasion?” Allen asked smiling “Oh I just called you so we could have a little chat” William replied crossing his legs.“But we’ve never even talked to each other, so truly I wonder, what do you want?” Allen asked putting the cup of tea back on the table. “It’s not as though I have been avoiding you, we’re always busy, I for one have a business to run” William replied, not answering his questions just yet.“Well, I think the system has begun to have some glitches,” William said as he stood up trying to adjust the painting close by. “I thought that was just a one-time thing” Allen answered not giving in to his suspicion that
“David, I think something’s wrong with Allen Scott,” William said as he held the phone up to his ear while the other hand was on the steering “He’s not telling us something, something important” William continued “I’m heading over to you right now” He said before hanging up the phone to focus on the road.“What is it now Allen, what have you done?” David muttered to himself while he paced around his kitchen counter. He had become a bit suspicious about Allen but it seemed as though William had a better theory and suspects him even more now.“You’re welcome, please come in,” David said gesturing that William could come and have a seat, closing the door right behind him, William had a seat “I had a little conversation with Allen, a bit heated though but yeah,” He said immediately his body touched the chair.“What happened?” David inquired, his voice sounding a bit distressed and even desperate to know if their suspicions were true. “I asked him a few questions about what he thought of t
The fierce look Allen had in his eyes as though he didn’t want to ever give up, he clasped his sword with his two hands not minding the damage he could take.He rushed to the giant gripping his sword tighter and going at it without hesitation with all his strength, he pushed through to get to the head of the huge enemy in futile attempts. “I’m not going to die here, I promise myself that I’ll push through till I can’t push anymore” He yelled at the top of his voice alerting the creature.Its huge size made it slower giving Allen an advantage. He swooped in from the branches above swiftly until he hit the weak point, its name, the creature let out a loud cry before falling and turning to dust.“Wow, whatever that was, I’m guessing it’s over,” Allen said panting aggressively, his sword was scathed and immediately broke as he tried to use it for support ‘Quest completed, acquired, 60000 coins, death armor, and unliving sword’ the notification in front of him read.“Woah, that’s a lot of
Leaving the man’s body on the floor, he stealthily walked to his sister’s room, he could hear someone’s footsteps close by, the door flung open, and the kidnapper busted out, Allen had his eyes on him, lunging at him, he rushed at the man dragging him by the throat and placing him on the wall.“Who are you? Who sent you?!!” Allen yelled, his grips strongly holding the man, he dragged him to the living room as he struggled for air, Allen let go of him to see him coughing excessively trying to escape by crawling his way out.“You’re not going anywhere,” Allen said pulling him back by the legs, the maids and servants watched as he held the man without remorse “I won’t repeat myself,” Allen said removing the mask “Who are you and who sent you?” Allen asked getting more agitated as he held the man with one hand.The man with little or no option pulled out a knife, aimed at Allen’s neck, his strike was deflected due to Allen’s fast thinking, and Allen’s left hand pushed the knife outwards d
