Liam took a deep breath, accepting the challenge with a determined expression. The elders watched intently as he shifted the weight of the ancient grim sword to one hand. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead as he struggled to maintain control.Inside his head, the dark demonic king couldn't resist mocking him, ["Look at you, struggling with a mere sword. How do you expect to face the true challenges that lie ahead?"]Ignoring the taunts, Liam focused on the task at hand. The elders, sensing his determination, exchanged glances, silently acknowledging the difficulty of the trial.Grim Blade, observing from the sidelines, spoke encouragingly, "Steady, Liam. You've faced tougher challenges, this is just another step."The hall fell into a tense silence as Liam battled against the weight of the ancient grim sword. The elders continued their discussion, assessing his performance."He's holding up well. Perhaps there's more to this young swordsman than meets the eye," one elder noted, squ
"How are you able to move this fast?" Challenger cried out in pain.The elders watched with an astonished look on their face, to win the challenge, Liam only had to attack Challenger at least once and succeed, However, judging by the current situation, it seems he wasn't just trying to pass the challenge but surpass their expectations by beating Challenger. But is that possible? Challenger is a war beast, he has been in battles and one time his limbs were chopped off but he still fought back. For someone who lost his limbs and fought back, surviving wounds would be mere play for him. "Don't worry, try to match my speed, I thought you were that strong." Liam grinned as his sword danced through the air, swiftly attacking and wounding Challenger so much that he started tearing up. Liam didn't mind the cries, he was used to crying and if it was killing, he could actually kill, he has killed before for a cause and could do it again. Challenger lifted his swords and blocked Liam's next
Liam was curiously waiting for an answer but when the shell dropped, he couldn't believe his ears. "Are you willing for us to arrange a wedding between you two?"That question was like a bomb on the head of Liam and Tricia. Tricia's face went red instantly, she didn't know how to react but Liam had a calm look despite the initial surprise. "Don't worry we know about your girlfriend and we know you love her, no issues with that, but as a man, especially a powerful and entitled man, you are allowed to have more than one wife." The clan leader spoke, adding fuel to the fire. Liam looked at him with a calm look on his face, not because he wanted to be calm but because a certain somebody was nagging again. ["Accept it, she is beautiful, she has everything and you guys have been close lately. But know that you aren't accepting her because of that. In the future, you can use her and take over the clan and learn as many sword techniques as you want. If anyone stops you, kill them."]'Hey
In a splendid living room, a billionaire could be seen sitting comfortably but with a scared look on his face as he stared at three figures in front of him. Totally different from him, these people had cold smirks on their face and their auras were domineering. There was a young man with short white hair sitting on the sofa while playing with his dagger and staring at Jarvis with a scoff. Standing behind him were two masked figures all armed with swords, ready to attack on the command of the white haired man sitting in front of them. "Jarvis Rice, is that what they call you?" Asked the white haired young man. "Y.. yes. I am Jarvis Rice, what do I hold for your visit?" "What?? You don't like seeing us here? You think we are dogs and we stink? Is that what I heard?" Jarvis Rice's eyes widened, "No, no, you misheard, I only told you my name, I don't have any bad intentions." "So you are trying to say I have hearing issues? Is that not what you are trying to tap about?" Jarvis im
At CGH, Liam was having a meeting with supreme man as they set out to do a re-evaluation for him.“Liam, I understand that you have your reasons for not re evaluating your powers at this point, but what do you think it would take to change your mind?” Said supreme man seated at the head of the table, there were three other heroes, Grim Blade included, sitting with them.There was catman in his usual funny hero costume as well as Pink Beauty whose stomach was bigger than normal due to her pregnancy. She was dressed in a pink loose gown however she looked really stunning.She looked at Liam, there have been rumors going around that Liam was far stronger than his current levels, thus CGH who lacked heroes after the demon expenditure decided that it would be better if they have another higher ranking hero to partake in dungeon subjugation.Liam looked at supreme man and sighed, “I wasn’t trying to hide my powers or anything as such, it is just that I haven't had the luxury of time to do a
At the moment, Liam was in his room, exercising as usual, he has already done more than a thousand push ups, a thousand sit ups and currently, he was at his 566 squat. "567.. 568!" Just then his phone rang and he picked it up immediately. "Yes this is Liam, oh CGH, when, alright see you in three hours." He kept the phone down and sighed loudly. "Honey, you are going to leave again." A very seductive voice from the bed, it was no other Anabella who delicately covered her naked body with the bed clothes while looking at Liam with love and sadness at the same time, sad he was going to leave once again just after returning home from a tedious training session. "Don't worry, this is my first subjugation mission and I think it won't take as much as clearing a dungeon." He replied. "Alright then, how about one more round to make up for leaving so soon again." She demanded with a shy smile. Liam stood up and smirked before walking towards the bed and drawing her in a tight cuddle whil
In front of a gigantic structure, eight heroes stood. "This is a 5-star dungeon, the monsters in it are stronger than you can imagine so we'd advise you not to fight any and only observe as we fight. This is your first mission by the way, according to the contract, even just participating, you will get a pay of ten million, depending on the danger level of the dungeon." Dick Grayson explained this and many other rules that he had to adhere to. After he was done briefing him on the news, eight of them got in. At first, they were greeted with darkness and then the whole place switched view to quite a calamitous scene. It was a rocky structure and it was wide, over hundred steps away from them stood their gigantic thrones and on those thrones, three monsters sat on them, one was a tall emberclaw that Liam was somehow familiar with and the others were two giants as tall as the emberclaw. Dick Grayson took the opportunity to explain, "In subjugation missions, this kind of scene isn'
Dick Grayson landed on the ground after the powerful throw from the ember claw, the emberclaw was gigantic but was very fast, Making it quite overpowered to defeat that easily. "Everyone. Keep your attacks coming, don't let any of them use their energy balls!" Dick Grayson, despite the fall, gave his command and stood up once again to attack. His body arched forward towards the emberclaw who was gathering an energy ball that Lacie is trying to stop using her energy negation barrier. "Lacie, when you are tired, inform me!" He told her as he appeared on the head of the emberclaw and rained more attacks until he was tossed like a rag doll to the ground once again. Nothing could make him stop, as a leader and a big brother, he believed his job involved making sure all his brothers were okay. He was overprotective and wouldn't want any monsters to hurt them thus he always fought the strongest monsters even though he wasn't the strongest in the team. And even in the midst of battle, h
