ANSEL LUTHER'S RISE TO POWER Ice ability user
The battle continued in the Arena and Vinny watched anxiously as the special task force members on his team fell one by one. Maya was defeated by her opponent's lightning-fast reflexes, Jax was overpowered by his foe's sheer strength, and Lena was outsmarted by her adversary's cunning tactics.His heart sank as he realized that none of his teammates had emerged victorious. The pressure was now on him to turn the tide as he was the second to the last one to fight on their team.The referee's voice echoed through the arena, "And now, put your hands together for Vinny, who will face off against... Glaciem!"Vinny braced himself as he gazed at his opponent, Glaciem, an Ice ability user with a formidable reputation. The audience began making little conversations, and from their words, he could tell that they feared Glaciem.Glaciem was looking like a tough opponent and so he knew he had to be at the top of his game if he was going to defeat Glaciem and secure a much-needed win for his t
ANSEL LUTHER'S RISE TO POWER The final match (Ansel vs Caspian)
Finally, the announcer mentioned Ansel's name and his opponent.His eyes blazed with determination as he walked towards the Arena.He gave Vinny a resolute nod, as if to say, "I won’t disappoint you."His teammates had lost and none of them came at the top. Ansel wanted victory and he was going to get it.He braced himself, this time around, he decided to use his fist as he was more powerful when he used martial arts skills.The match began, and Ansel charged forward with a flurry of punches and kicks.His opponent, Caspian, countered with swift blocks and strikes.Fortunately, Ansel's movements were unpredictable, his body twisting and turning in strange, fluid motions.Caspian's eyes narrowed, trying to read Ansel's technique, but it was like nothing he had ever seen before.Ansel's arms seemed to stretch and contort, his legs coiling and uncoiling like a spring.The two of them exchanged blows, their movements lightning-fast.Caspian landed a solid kick, but Ansel absorbed the impa
ANSEL LUTHER'S RISE TO POWER Experiment?
While Ansel was on the floor, he could only hear the chants and applause from the crowd.His hands went to his ears, but the noise was still too loud.As he pressed his palms against his ears, a sharp pain shot through his chest, making him grit his teeth.Ansel bit his lower lip, the pain threatening to escape as a scream. He bit down harder, the metallic taste of blood mingling with the bitter flavor on his tongue.His eyelashes fluttered wildly as he struggled to lift his heavy lids. When he finally managed to pry his eyes open, his vision blurred, and all he saw was a hazy outline of a man looming over him.Ansel couldn't distinguish if the man was Caspian or the announcer, but one thing was certain - a toothy grin was staring back at him.Ansel dug his palms into the ground and struggled to sit up."... Caspian!"The crowd's loud applause erupted once more as Caspian was declared the winner, and Ansel's body convulsed in a violent coughing fit, bringing out a reddish liquid from
ANSEL LUTHER'S RISE TO POWER The healing room
Meanwhile, in the room painted white, Ami was trying to stop Audrey from hitting the healer in the face. She wrapped her arms around Audrey's waist, holding him back as she pleaded, "Audrey, stop! Don't hurt him!”"Let it go, Audrey! You heard the healer. He can't transport us back to the arena unless the king says so." Ami continued in a convincing tone.The healer who had transported them to hospital wasn't listening to her brother and there was no other way they could get out of there.They had been pleading for more than thirty minutes and Ami couldn't help but wonder if things were going okay in the Arena."I've told you before, he only responds to force," Audrey growled, his patience wearing thin. "Let me take care of this. If I break his jaw, he'll suddenly remember how to get us back to the Arena." Audrey's hands paused mid-crack, his eyes flashing with frustration as he turned to face Ami, who had grasped his collar with a pleading expression. "Please,don't do this. We can'
ANSEL LUTHER'S RISE TO POWER Captives
Ansel and over ninety humans were led to a massive cave entrance. The group's murmurs filled the air as they stepped into the dimly lit space. He recognized the place immediately.It was the same place he had discovered the strange markings when they last visited this world.Could it be that the cave was not a secret place after all?They had walked a great distance and Ansel didn't know when they were going to stop.The group's initial murmurs had long since faded into exhausted silence, broken only by the soft rustling of footsteps on the rough terrain. To make matters worse, a witch had casted a spell on them, restricting their movements.Ansel sniffed the air. Something about this place felt oddly familiar.He could sense pain and torture.They continued walking and finally, they were able to see a light.A blue crystal illuminated a room and the guard gestured for them to halt their footsteps.Ansel stared at the room closely, it wasn't exactly a room.Perhaps, an opening to so
ANSEL LUTHER'S RISE TO POWER A different Cell
While they were in the room, they discovered they could chat with all members and they created a group chat where they could discuss ways of getting out.But of course, they were so secretive and the guards didn't take notice.No one knew how much time had passed but soon everyone began to get tired.They slept on the floor and some cried their hearts out.Zach approached a prison cell with a guard.He was holding his blood sword in his hands, as if he was ready to behead someone."This is the man, my prince." The guard said as he pointed his hand at Audrey.Zach nodded his head and said calmly. "Come forward young man."Audrey's gaze fell on the blood sword, he had seen what a weapon made from the blood could do.He exchanged glances with his sister and Ansel."Don't be scared. I won't hurt you. Not now at least." Zach continued, gesturing with his hands as if he was welcoming a child to come over.Audrey shook his head in disagreement. Zach's voice didn't sound good.His heart thump
ANSEL LUTHER'S RISE TO POWER Kill me, Sel.
"Ignore the bitch, young one." Robert said as he spat harshly on the ground.From the way he talked to the woman, Ansel guessed that she wasn't here for a good purpose.He heard the woman speak to the guard in an inaudible tone before turning back to look at Ansel."You are a lucky man." The woman said with a pretentious smile before walking past Ansel to meet the old man.As the woman's fingers wrapped around the slender needle, Ansel's instincts kicked in. He scrambled to his feet, his gaze fixed on the sharp tip.The needle's enormity made Ansel's blood run cold. Its sheer size and menacing glint left no doubt that it was meant for Robert, and Ansel knew he had to act fast."Are you kidding me?!" Ansel exploded, his voice fierce with anger. "There's almost no blood left in him! You can't possibly take any more!"He was mad at them for considering taking blood from the old man who they had inflicted so much pain on.The woman's smile vanished, replaced by a snarl. "And what makes y
ANSEL LUTHER'S RISE TO POWER A reason to live
Ansel lay on the ground, thinking about what Old Robert said.He had been wide awake ever since, Old Robert's words replaying in his mind and refusing to let him rest.To make matters worse, it seemed like the only thing Old Robert wanted right now was death.Ansel swallowed hard, trying to dislodge the lump that had formed in his throat. His gaze remained fixed on the wall in front of him, his eyes staring blankly.He could only come to one conclusion, Old Robert had been giving a potion to make his life span increase.The pain that they inflicted on him was enough to make him dead a long time ago.However, he was still alive.He hadn't gotten the chance to speak with the other man on the opposite side and he didn't know how he got into the situation."Kill me... Kill me..."Old Robert's voice kept ringing in his ears and he clenched his jaw, making up his mind to ask old Robert some questions the next time he got the chance to.His wristband hadn't blinked and so he didn't bother se

"Have you forgotten the past so soon?"
"Father-in-law Luther," the older man’s voice cracked. He stood a few feet away with his shoulders slouched, looking smaller than anyone had ever seen him. "I wish... I wish I could bring her back, I really do. But I can’t. I know that now. It's all my fault and i apologize for my past mistakes." His eyes darted from grandfather Luther to Ansel. "Please, just let me prove I’m sorry. I want to be part of this family again. We need to live together as one. I want to be with my children again."The memories came flooding back for him. He remembered the day he had pushed his family out, standing there with his new wife and acting like he had won. He had believed he had everything under control, that with Ansel’s mother’s wealth, he could live a life of luxury. It was only now that he realized how much he had truly lost.If he had been patient enough, he would have gotten to find out that grandfather was a rich man. Even the car behind grandfather cost almost a hundred million dollars.M
Sobs
Ansel stepped out of the courthouse, the cool breeze of early morning ruffling his hair. The property that rightfully belonged to his mother was finally his again.He could still hear the judge’s voice echoing in his head in a calm but authoritative tone, “The court rules in favor of Ansel Luther, granting him full ownership of the property.”His lawyer had done exactly what Ansel had hired him for. No surprises there. With a lawyer of his caliber, victories like this were highly expected.But the image that stuck with Ansel the most was his stepmother’s face as the verdict was announced. She had fought hard to keep what didn’t belong to her, using every underhanded trick in the book, but now it was over.Another thing that was satisfying, though, was watching his father and stepmother's faces as reality hit them.As Ansel approached the garage, a sly grin tugged at the corner of his lips. He could still see the look of shock and outrage on his father’s face, too. His father's su
Courtroom
The morning sun passed through the tall windows of the courthouse, casting long shadows across the polished floor.Ansel stepped through the door, his polished shoes clicking softly as he walked down the aisle toward the front of the courtroom. He had chosen his outfit carefully, a tailored suit, crisp white shirt, and a dark tie that made him look every bit the man he had grown to become.As soon as he entered, heads turned, including those of his father and stepmother, who were seated across the room.His stepmother's brows furrowed when she saw him, her lips pursing in disapproval. Ansel didn’t acknowledge them. Instead, he walked toward the plaintiff’s seat with a faint smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth. The kind of smirk that said he had been waiting for this moment. His father, seated a few rows behind the defense table, leaned over to whisper something to his wife. He noticed how his stepmother hissed under her breath, clearly displeased.‘They think I spent my last
Kool Kat Klub
In front of the bar, two bulky bodyguards stood with arms crossed, their eyes scanning the crowd for any sign of trouble. The KKK(Kool kat Klub) Bar had a reputation, and they were there to make sure the wrong kind of people didn’t get in without paying for access.Ansel walked up to the door, handed one of the guards a few bills, and received a curt nod in return. They stepped aside, letting him through without a word. He pushed open the heavy door and stepped inside.The place was exactly as it was rumoured to be. The lights were dim, casting a reddish glow over the room.Music pumped through the speakers, loud enough to make his chest vibrate. Girls in skimpy outfits danced on platforms, their movements drawing the attention of the men partying below with drinks in hand and their laughter filling the air.Ansel wasn’t here for the party. He was here for Kael.He scanned the room, his eyes moving quickly from face to face. Kael had a habit of showing up in his bar.Ansel came pre
Kael’s illegal operations
The group of men rounded the corner, dragging a bulky, heavy-looking bag between them.Ansel’s instincts kicked in the moment he caught sight of them. The stench of powder still lingered in the air from earlier, and it wasn’t hard to piece it all together. This wasn’t cleaning equipment…it was something far more sinister.The men faltered when they saw him and the guy he’d pinned just moments ago, still on his knees and visibly rattled. Their steps slowed, unsure of what they’d just walked into.Ansel loosened his grip on the man he was holding and pushed him aside, stepping forward toward the group. His eyes flicked to the bag they were carrying.“What’s in the bag?” His voice was steady, calm, but his gaze locked onto their faces, looking for any hint of a lie.The man on the floor stammered again, “It’s… it’s just cleaning stuff, I swear.”Ansel sneered, his patience wearing thin. He wasn’t in the mood for more nonsense. He moved closer, his presence alone enough to make them twitc
Visiting the warehouse
★★★On their way back, they passed by the MPK building, its towering structure silhouetted against the darkening sky.The government rewards were secured in his bag. Most notably, the key to the advanced medical equipment he had been given. Ansel leaned back in the car seat, his eyes distant as he recalled his stepmother’s chilling words about his sister.He clenched his fists. But now wasn’t the time to dwell on it. There were more pressing matters at hand.“Anthony,” Ansel said, his voice breaking the silence, “Take me to Grove Street. I need to check on something at the warehouse.”Anthony glanced at him through the rearview mirror. “Are you sure? It’s pretty late.”Ansel nodded, his gaze still fixed out the window. “I won’t be long. Just need to make sure everything’s in place.”It was already late at night, and the streets were quiet. The city’s usual noise had died down, and the dim street lights cast long shadows on the empty roads. They made their way through the dark streets
He has changed.
Ansel’s father’s mocking words echoed in his mind, pulling him into old wounds, but the sharp sound of heels hitting the cold marble floor snapped him out of it. He didn’t need to look up to know who was approaching—his stepmother’s presence was always announced by the clinking of her flashy jewelry.She strode into the room with her head held high, diamonds glinting at her neck, wrists, and ears. Ansel didn’t move. His face hardened as she came closer.“Well, well,” she said with a voice laced with false sweetness. “Look who’s back. Here to ask for money again, Ansel?”Ansel slowly looked her over, a cold sneer twisting his lips. His eyes locked on the woman who had torn his family apart so many years ago, the woman who had driven a wedge between his parents, ultimately destroying the family. He felt that familiar surge of anger rising, but he kept his voice level.“Keep. My. Name. Out. Of. Your. Mouth,” he said sharply, his words cutting through the air.His stepmother didn’t flinch
Two impossible options
Ansel checked the time on his watch. Two hours until the office closed, and the medical department was peaceful. No patients needed attention.At the end of the street, Anthony waited in the car. Ansel's expression was tight, and Anthony noticed that the young master didn't seem to be in a good mood today.He climbed into the car, shutting the door a bit harder than necessary."Is everything alright, Young master Ansel?" Anthony asked, glancing at Ansel in the rearview mirror.Ansel shook his head. The message from his assistant was still flashing before his eyes. His father, who had abandoned him and his mother years ago, was planning to sell her company. The same company he had taken from her before she passed away.Ansel could hardly believe that his father would dare to do that.But what was he expecting from a man who resulted in dirty tricks to get what he wanted?Anger boiled in Ansel's chest. He suddenly remembered his mother's tears, her desperation as his father's underhande
When things get heated
“Divorce?” Thora’s voice dripped with disbelief. “Who do you think you are, telling me what to do?”Claire’s nostrils flared as anger surged through her, and in a swift motion, she grabbed the glass cup sitting on the table and slammed it down. The glass shattered against the floor with a loud crash, shards scattering everywhere. It wasn’t until she heard the satisfying sound of the glass breaking that her anger felt even remotely manageable. She turned back toward Ansel, a sneer on her face, and then shifted her glare toward Thora.“I’m not blind. I can see clearly that he’s nothing but a stain on our family!” Claire spat out."Our family?" Thora corrected calmly.The sight of the broken shards of glass scattered on the floor infuriated her but she managed to maintain her cool."You can leave my office now, Claire. I have important matters to attend to."Claire felt like she had just heard the most insulting words of her life.She stammered as she tried to come up with a reply."Are
