After getting healed from his injury and leaving the spot, Ares did not return to his dorm, instead, he continued walking aimlessly forward, his thoughts and minds completely jumbled together.Although Ares now hated Sarah to the end of the world, for not only cheating on him, sending people to beat him up, but for also betraying his trust, and wasting his time and effort all these years despite already knowing that she would never marry him.The more Ares walked, the more he thought, and the more he recalled all his plans and promises for Sarah, the same for hers to him.Although it was difficult for a nobody to make it and become wealthy in Rex City, Ares had promised himself to make it, to be wealthy for Sarah.Although he has no savings and always spends everything on her, as he earns it, even going on hunger strikes times without numbers, Ares’s dreams had still stand.If not for his miracle orb, perhaps, he would have become nothing but a Skelton, with the way he starves himself every time.He does not have any good clothes and even despite doing multiple jobs and earning well, he hadn’t bought himself any dress in years.The more Ares thought all this, the more regretful he became.He not only hated Sarah, he hated himself as well, wondering why he chose to trust her against all odds, despite knowing that she already doesn’t love him again, which he had never accepted to think about, not to talk of believing.This was what Ares was thinking when he spotted a bar.“I still have a few bucks with me, the money I had kept, to take that bitch out on a date after surprising her with her phone.”Ares patted his pants pocket and mumbled to himself.It was already late by now, so nobody saw his blood-covered clothes.Ares entered the bar that was completely filled with a blinding disco light and then without hesitation, he began to order bottle after bottle of alcohol, trying to drink away his sorrow.….“I am really regretting accepting this plan of yours.”In one corner of the bar, a stunning woman who had long, luscious flowing black hair that ran past her knees, and an exquisite hourglass figure that could captivate the heart and soul of any man, sat with a regretful expression on her face as she spoke on the phone.Her face, beautifully sculpted as though personally crafted by the hands of a divine artist was unmistakably helpless at this moment.“I’m telling you, I came to the bar as you’ve suggested, trying to find a man, whom I could use to chase that bastard off from disturbing me, but all the men I’ve been seeing are nothing but scum, animals, who had been trying to get into my pants.”The lady was so furious.She became silent after speaking her mind, but then the rage on her face began to ease down, listening to what the person she was calling was saying, probably calming her down. Eventually, she sighed heavily.“I will stay a few more minutes here and if I fail to discover any responsible man, I will leave and just tell mother and grandfather that I will never marry that shameless womanizer.”Saying this, she sighed again after a moment before taking away her cell phone from her ear and then she crashed her back against the couch she was sitting with a helpless look appearing on her face, her eyes shutting with frustration.“Hey, beauty.”‘God!!!’ the beauty groaned with pain as soon as she heard this voice. Her eyes snapped open and she glanced at the person calling her.It was pot-bellied man, who was holding a massive cup of beer in her hand while presently giving her a lecherous gaze.“What?!” She asked with frustration and the person smiled, acting as though he couldn’t understand that the lady wasn’t interested in him.“With how beautiful you are, how can you be sitting here all alone? Care if I join you?”“I care!”The lady snapped, gazing extremely irritated at the man, who like the previous ones who had come, wouldn’t hide his lecherousness.“But…”“Please leave me be.” She interrupted rudely and coldly.The man gazed at her unwillingly, but then he sighed. “I guess I’m also not her speck,” he shook his head and also walked away.Not long after, another guy also came, this one, not badly built.“Hey beauty, you need a sex toy? I’m available for you.”“This…”The jade beauty instantly felt like vomiting.She gazed at the man, acting like a male version of a female prostitute who was trying to attract a prospective customer with pure repulsion.This was the final straw that broke her camel’s back.She couldn’t hold it again.Without hesitation, she stood up and stormed away.“This…”The guy awkwardly scratched his head, then he also shook his head before returning to where he had come from, where a bunch of guys was gang.“How va? You successful with her?”“Argh!!! Don’t even mention it. I think that girl is into girls, if she did not get attracted to any one of us.”“What a pity, and I thought I’d be able to get into the pants of the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen in my life.”…..“How could I even have succumbed to accept a plan like this? Argh!!! I feel like I’m going crazy!” Olivia massaged her temples, looking exhausted as she walked in the direction of the exit, with a few guys here and there giving her all sorts of dirty gazes, and some of them already even waiting for her to step out so that they could follow.Suddenly, however, Olivia stopped in her tracks and then she stared intently at the extremely lonely guy, who seemed to have lost all hope in life.She gazed at Ares for a while not moving, then suddenly, she approached him.“Mind if I sit here?” She inquired, but as though she were nothing but air, Mark ignored her and continued gulping his alcohol directly from the bottle, more than ten empty bottles already in his front.“This person... He must have a story to tell.”She stared at Ares’s lifeless eyes for a while. ‘He should do, then.’ Thinking this, Olivia sighed and then sat beside Ares.“Please give me a clean cup,” she requested from the waiter, who hurriedly did as she was told.Then she opened one of the unopened bottles in front of Ares and poured a little, then she began to slowly sip it.“That…”Witnessing the beauty, who had refused to give any man her attention sitting beside Ares and drinking with him, the mouths of almost all the guys in the bar have become open right now.They were shocked beyond words and couldn’t believe their eyes.“I finally know the type of girl she is.”At the gathering of the guys, one of them suddenly sighed and immediately, the other gazed at him before asking in unison. “What type.”“She isn’t into girls, but she definitely is the type that always has things for cold guys that do not have them in their eyes.”“This…” everybody gaped at the speaker with open mouths. “Is that a thing?”“Of course.”“Wow.”“And to think I’ve run to her and fawn over her. Dang. I would have acted cold to win her over.”All the guys became regretful in the blink of an eye while cursing Ares in their mind, for being a lucky bastard.……Not knowing how many bottles they’d drank or how long had passed, Ares, already drunk beyond words was slurring emotionally right now, his words difficult to pronounce clearly and each sentence getting drawn than normal.“I fucking loved her. I gave her my heart, soul, mind, time, and everything, but… but she fucking cheated on me and had already been sleeping with another guy after always promising me that she will only reserve her virginity till the night of our wedding.”“You too… why would you sacrifice so much to someone when you even need someone to sacrifice for you.” Olivia, who had never intended to get drunk from the beginning, but had gradually also gotten drunk from hearing Ares’s story also shook, speaking in the manner that a drunkard speaks.They continued drinking and Ares continued pouring out his mind until finally, the two weren’t able to hold it anymore and directly fall against the table.Just as they were about to fall asleep, the barman woke them up, telling them that they were about to close for the night.“Do you need a room?” The person, already foreseeing the result of a guy and a lady getting drunk inquired.“Ar… gimme… gimme a room.”Still drunk, both Ares and Olivia spoke in unison.Grinning slyly, the waiter did as ordered, but then he gave the two a single room.As soon as they entered, the two strangers, feeling each other heat instantly became passionate, and then before they knew it, their clothes were no longer on their bodies, but instead, littering the floor.“Argh!”Olivia soon moaned with pain, with Ares on her, but then very slowly, pleasure moans filled the room not long later and the the two went from slowly having each others to rapidly firing at one another, neither of them wanting to back down for the others.Unfortunately for the both of them, however, they had no idea about anything and what they were doing was merely in their drunk state.***** ‘So soft!! What’s this soft and squishy texture in my hand?’ Ares couldn’t help but subconsciously squeeze the object in his hand. He had no idea whether he was only dreaming or he was just waking up. Suddenly, however, a hard smack hit his hand away. Ares was forcefully woken up. The moment he did, Olivia’s eyes also snapped open. Seeing each other, the two were first incredibly startled, but then they went blank for a second, which was followed by; “Argh!!!! Who are you !!! Who are you and what are you doing in my bed?! What have you done to me?!!!” A shrill scream that almost deafened Ares entered his ears, rousing him up from his stupor at the incredible beauty he had seen upon his waking up. Ares became greatly scared and confused hearing her words. “I… I did not do anything to you, I… I only remembered drinking last night, and that was it!” “You… you…” Olivia, shocked and scared to death abruptly made the intention of rushing out of bed, but then a great and shar
***** “Have you heard, that a fourth-year student of our school accepted a marriage proposal from an extremely wealthy and influential person last night?” “Ah… I also learned of this last night, and if it weren’t for you reminding me, I would have completely forgotten that. Do you know that I slept so late in the night, checking all the news about the proposal? oh… I so much envy the schoolmate.” “Same as me. As in, in this world and day, where countless beauties are all over the world, where would one find a wealthy man who would propose and want to marry us, who is from a poor background.” “But guys, do you think that what the lady did to her ex was good? I learned that he had been the one sponsoring her school and taking care of all her needs since the day she became a student of our school.” "Pfft... Spare me your nonsense. Who sends the loser to handle such matters? I heard that the poverty-stricken bastard can even barely afford a meal a day, yet he's playing caretaker for
***** “Third bro, what do you know, hahahah! Second bro has been scammed by all sorts of ladies all his life, before he finally decided to further his education, with many of them even going as far as to save his mobile number with all sorts of names, such as; Bill Payer, Free Cash, My Unlimited ATM, Free Money Source, and so on!” The three brothers were seated on the beds, facing each other and one of them was so embarrassed at this moment.“You…” the person, the second brother pointed fiercely at the first brother, who was animatedly narrating a story and acting as though he were present when everything had occurred. “How dare you speak about me, first bro, when you had already sponsored two girls in colleges… hahaha. Even sponsoring one of their wedding’s expenses without having an idea that you are paying her to marry someone else… hahaha.” “Fuck you, first brother! What about you who had actually paid the school fees of a girl’s siblings, even buying a house for her parents,
***** “Find the information of this person for me.” Inside the living room of a high-end apartment, Mason, who was reeking of killing intent at this moment, with his eyes completely red from fury abruptly passed his cell phone to someone who was standing respectfully before on. The person has dark and spooky eyes, and in the depth of these eyes, a type of unusual hunger seemed to be present.By merely standing there, a cold-blooded aura was radiating from his body. Without saying a single word, the person, Jackal accepted the cell phone and took a look at the screen. On it was a picture of Ares, who was wearing only pants, his torso bare. It was a picture taken earlier that day without his awareness. “Okay, young master.” Without asking any questions, the eerie-looking guy nodded his head and then passed Mason’s cell phone back to him, but then his eyes flashed with anticipation as he opened his mouth. “What should I do after I find the person?” “What should you do?” Mason’s
***** Gazing at her, nobody was able to react for a while, but then they all suddenly began to gasp in unison. "Wow! So, that's sister Sarah's fiancé's car! Incredible!""Wow, talk about living the dream! I've always wished for a lavish ride to school.""Isn't this the person some destitute fool tried to rival with a woman and hoped to win over? What a joke!""Haha! It's no surprise that Sister Sarah left that foolish boy. I'd do the same, even if he were to offer me his kidney along with all his wealth. I'd gladly accept a proposal from a wealthy tycoon like her fiancé."Hearing the crowd’s yell, Ares's eldest brother, who was still in a daze quickly looked back at Ares when he saw Sarah exiting the car. Similarly, the second brother who was attempting to rush ahead and stop the first brother glanced at Ares. They became filled to the brim with concern for him, having no idea about what his state of mind would be, seeing the lady who had played him badly. “Third Brother, are you
***** “I’m so fucking furious!! I would have punched off the arrogant grin on his face if not for the third brother dragging me back!” “I don't understand why they always feel the need to believe they're superior just because their family has money!” Following Ares as he continued to pull them along, even after they had departed the scene, the first and second brothers persisted in voicing their anger without relenting. It was as though they were the ones whose girlfriends got taken and not Ares, who hadn't even said a single word concerning the issue right from the start. Certainly, Ares understood that their anger was truly sincere, especially when he noticed their trembling, a sign that they couldn't fully express their emotions. Ares, even though he had not been able to fight for himself felt great inside, but knowing how powerful Michael appeared to be, he did not want his brothers to make unnecessary enemies that could do more harm than good to them. “It’s okay. Just let
***** “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
*****"Thief? Which theif? Where is he?"Everyone was greatly perplexed, hearing the chubby man's yell, but then suddenly, all eyes turned toward Ares, who was about to leave the building with a dejected expression on his face.‘That’s definitely the thief!’They all thought unanimously and immediately, their excitement further surged for an unknown reason.“Apprehend him!! He is the criminal!!!”They all shouted among themselves.Ares couldn’t respond initially, but then his eyes widened.‘Stop who? Who is the thief?’He thought, startled, but before he could grasp what was happening and whom the crowd was pointing at, he was already surrounded.“I knew it!!! You have always not been the angel that you had always portrayed, so, this is the real you, a thief that deserves to be served a jungle justice!”“Hehehe!!! You are finally caught today!”As though they had been anticipating a day like this forever, all sorts of mockery and allegations were hurled at Ares even before they unders
***** "What can I do now that you and second brother decided to disappear on me?" The first brother, who appeared to have matured significantly compared to his past self, let out a deep sigh in response to Ares's question. Ares stared at him for a moment before clenching his fists. ‘Do I really think he would feel like he's on top of the world just because I decided to come back?’ he thought with a wry smile, recalling something. “Aren’t I also like him?” he mumbled, recalling how he wouldn’t forgive his parents after learning the true reason behind their disappearance. Instantly, all of Ares's remaining anger toward his parents vanished. .... Returning to see his first brother made him realize that sometimes, causing pain to one's loved ones is beyond one’s control because as long as there are bigger pictures to consider, one would always betray the trust of their loved ones. Ares let out a heavy sigh and gazed intently at his first brother before finally deciding to open up t
***** "So, this is Jasper," Ares thought as he observed the middle-aged man bowing respectfully to his parents. He was at a loss for what to feel, gazing at the person he had deeply despised and always hated to the bone until now. He had always believed this person had betrayed his parents. In case it had been forgotten, this was the name Ares heard on the day he unlocked his inheritance—the name of the person who had betrayed his parents. Actually, Jasper had not betrayed his parents, no. In fact, everything that happened back then was all part of his parents' plan. They had deliberately made Jasper constantly reveal their locations in order to draw the enemy's attention toward themselves, allowing their organization, which had been on the verge of collapse at the time, a chance to recuperate. Apart from the organization being the main reason, another factor was that the couple had discovered the existence of a deceased Deity’s tomb. Needing to search for this Deity’s inherita
***** Of all the things Ares had anticipated, seeing his parents—whom his heart had long yearned for since learning about them—definitely wasn't one of them. He had never expected to meet them at his weakest and most desperate moment.It was a moment he would never forget in his life as their arrival immediately saved him and ended any presence of intruders on Earth.The husband and wife duo did not hesitate to eradicate all the members of the Demon sect clan, leaving them in regret, unwillingness, and pain.As for the deity, given how her strength was on par with either of the couple, she was let off after making to swear an oath to heaven, using her cultivation that she would never intrude on earth or cause trouble again. And like that, in a matter of minutes, the horror and virus that had pillaged the earth for hundreds of thousands of years was put to an end. It was a moment that would forever be recorded in the anal of history. ….. “You know nothing hadn’t actually changed,
*****Everyone went stunned before quickly looking, the following second, all mouths gaped open.The grand elder of the Demon sect, who had always been all high and cold was currently kneeling and bowing repeatedly toward the Deity.“Grand… Grand elder!” A few of the Demon sect warriors cried out.However, just as they finished, the grand elder waved his hands and… (pft.. pft…)Blood splashed and the unlucky warriors fell dead.The place fell silent in an instant and this silence lasted for a moment before; “Please accept us as your slave!”It began with an elder, also kneeling and following this;“We surrender!”“We surrender!!”All the Demon Sect’s members fell to their knees, crying…..The members of the Orders of the Immortal Shield appeared stunned and were unresponsive for an extended period, questioning if the opposing group was still the same one that had troubled them for years.The virus they had been doing their all to destroy.….Apart from the cries of the
*****No matter how much he tried, Ares couldn’t believe his eyes.He continued gawking blankly for a long time before he shook his head and then blinked his eyes hard.“Second brother?” He inquired again.At this time, everybody had already realized that Ares seemed to know the other party.“Master, do you know them?” Andrew, who was standing beside Ares couldn’t help but inquire, but Ares was too stunned right now to respond.As for the second brother, he stared intently at Ares for a moment before he forced a smirk that did not come from his mind.“You really hid yourself well,” he said, recalling the level of his shock and disbelief after learning Ares’s true identity.He couldn’t help but become nostalgic for a moment, recalling the Ares he knew.After that, he shook his head.“Although I don’t want us to be enemies, the situation around has already made that imminent,” he continued and Ares hurriedly shot him a gaze.Right now, Ares is filled with a lot of questions,
*****The war was an all-out one that seemed to be changing in favor from time to time.one time, The Order of the Immortal Shield would be winning, another time, it would be the Demon sect winning.This war took over two hours with almost a hundred lives lost while almost everybody suffered all sorts of injuries.Everyone became weak and they started becoming sluggish, unable to attack well again.This was the time the Oriole, who had been completely motionless from the start, finally decided to make his move.“Hahahahaha!” A sudden laugh erupted within the battlefield that was now covered in blood, startling everyone.The two groups instantly departed from each other, regrouping before looking toward the source of the laughter.“Junior, what’s the matter?” The Demon Sect Patriarch, one of the few people who hadn’t suffered even the slightest cut inquired.He was unhappy, but even though he wasn’t that smart, he understood that the weak junior wouldn’t disrupt the battle for
*****The instant the member of the Immortal Shield arrived, the situation in the Johnson Family’s estate swiftly changed.In an instant, hope returned to the faces of the people on the ground while the members of the Demon sect became serious.As for the Vanguard, he became unwilling, breathing heavily as he stared hatefully at Ares.Like a mighty general in battle, Ares remained suspended at the forefront of his men, staring at the enemies.Right now, his blood was wildly pumping as he knew that he could finally use his strength without constraint.Suddenly, however, he glanced at the ground, at his wife in particular.“You should withdraw this site completely,” he stated.“I…” Olivia, who had been gaping at Ares immediately hesitated, but noticing that the situation had already reached its peak and this was the only time she could escape without pulling Ares and his group back, she nodded her head.“Take care,” she said with millions of unspoken emotions, and with this, sh
*****“You really want to protect this brat who had killed my daughter?”The owner of the voice was nobody other than the Vanguard who had just returned to his senses.Old Man Ton did not respond, but his silence already showed his stance. He would fight till the end.“Don’t blame me then!” The Vanguard spelled slowly and began to gather his strength.“Why don’t I send you two of my men to play with him together?” The Demon’s sect patriarch abruptly asked.Although The Vanguard directly understood that he was being treated as his name had suggested, he did not mind.“Please,” he responded and instantly, two of the Demon sect’s soldiers landed beside him.“Since you have learned not to mind your business, you can only blame yourself!” He growled beneath his voice, and then without further delay, he waved his hand.“Attack!!!”“Attack!!!” The two soldiers also roared.They rushed beside the Vanguard and like three arrows shot by a god, they flew with an insane speed toward Ol
*****The attack was so fast and sudden that nobody had anticipated it.“To think this one is this powerful,” the ghost-looking Patriarch of the demonic sect suddenly mumbled to himself with shock, staring at the attack even he would be wary of if thrown at him.He sighed heavily before looking at the grand elder."Didn't you say we needed his help because he's human, and humans are only good at scheming?" “How come he couldn’t use that in a time like this?” he suddenly asked.The grand elder, whose gaze had been following the Vanguard immediately stopped and then turned toward the patriarch.He directly understood what the question meant, so he smiled wryly."He has clearly lost all ability to reason since the other party just killed his only daughter," he mumbled.The patriarch immediately shook his head with disappointment upon hearing the response."Considering the other party was just a young kid whom anyone from the sect could have easily handled, doesn't that mean we
