“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 eyes immediately ignited with a destructive intent upon hearing the question.His eyes instantly bored into his trusted aide, who had always helped him do all his dirty jobs after a moment.“Whether almost dead or completely alive, bring him to me. Just make sure he is not completely dead, understood?”“Understood, young master.”The eerie guy, who seemed to be a demon from the depth of hell nodded his head.No longer saying a word, he turned around and then matched away, leaving only Mason behind.Mason continued brooding until suddenly, he banged his fist hard on the hard-tempered glass table that could withstand bullets before him, instantly shattering it into pieces.Without getting injured at all, Mason jumped to his feet.“That bitch!!! How dare she! How dare she cheat on me like this! I swear by my life that you will regret it as well. Just let me be done with that motherfucking bastard first!” He growled with killing intent.…..“Guys, is this the way to your class?” Ares couldn’t help but suddenly look at his brothers, who wouldn’t stop following him since they managed to escape the dorm.The two boys only looked at him and smiled.“Of course, not,” they responded matter-of-factly, further confusing Ares.“Why then are you two following me?” He pressed.“There is this new beauty around your class who the second brother has been eyeing in recent days and had taken a keen interest in. I’ve taken it upon myself to help speak on his behalf today.”“You…” the second brother immediately shot a dumbstruck and reproachful glare at the first brother upon hearing the excuse he had used.He wanted to retort, but knowing that they couldn’t let Ares know that they were only following him so that he would not do something untoward to himself, he decided to eat the insult.He immediately couldn’t help but smile with embarrassment, seeing the weird look Ares was giving you.“I never knew the second brother could not speak to ladies himself due to how he had always made mouths about how he can speak to any ladies that ever caught his interest in the past.”“I…” the second brother couldn’t help but glare fiercely at the first brother, but the first brother only beamed happily at him.This was what the three were discussing as they walked when suddenly, the beastly roar of an engine startled them badly to their senses.“This…”Their hearts skipped wildly and they quickly turned their heads. The following second, however, their hearts almost leaped out of their chests from profound fear.“Second brother, watch out!”Both Ares and the first brother instinctively cried out, pulling the arms of the second brother, whose face had turned pale and they jumped back.Just at that moment, a car that was speeding as though it was carrying a patient in a life-and-death condition zoomed past.“That…”The three brothers were scared to death and couldn’t return to their senses for a second, but then suddenly, the eyes of the first brother became filled to the brim with rage.“Who was that bastard!!! Was he trying to kill someone!!”He roared, his heart still pounding from fear about what would have been the fate of the second brother if he and Ares had not hurriedly dragged him out of the way.“How could someone be allowed to drive with such an insane speed within the school premises?”Ares was furious as well.Together with the first brother, they began to calm the second brother, who wouldn’t return to his senses.‘That… that…’The second brother was really scared beyond words right now.The close encounter he just had with death made him recall one of the scariest memories he had stowed away all this year, the image of the day such a speeding car had hit his sister right before his eyes.Looking at him with concern, although neither Ares nor the first brother knew the reason behind his exaggerated behavior, they perfectly understood well that things had gone beyond the accident that had just almost occurred.“That bastard driver, he must hear it from me today!”The first brother gritted his teeth after he and Ares had finally managed to slightly calm the second brother down, then without waiting for anybody, he stormed ahead.“This…”The second brother hurriedly looked at the storming away back which seemed to make the first brother resemble someone who was going to war.“Let’s follow him before he causes trouble we would never be able to handle. That car is very expensive, so, the owner must not be any ordinary person!”The second brother quickly said, nervously looking at the back, then together with Ares, they rushed after the first brother who wouldn’t slow down at all.They continued rushing after him for a while before they eventually caught up with him since he was now standing fixated and glaring in a particular direction.“So, that bastard was merely coming here? How dare he drive in the way he had done?”The first brother gritted his teeth and growled.Both Ares and the second brother also looked, and then the second brother sighed.He was on the verge of stopping the first brother and telling him not to bother when the first brother once again resumed storming, approaching the place where a crowd of people who acted as though they had never seen beautiful and expensive cars in their lives were now gathered.…Gazing at the sleek and expensive-looking sports car before them, everybody, who had rushed over from various directions was shocked to the core at this moment.They had no idea about who would own such a pricey vehicle.They were all gasping right now while wildly guessing the price of the car when its two-butterfly doors opened and then a couple stepped out.The following second, everybody became transfixed and their mouths and eyes opened wide, gaping at the lady, who had gotten off from the passenger’s side of the car.Although she wasn’t that beautiful, she was the present hit sensation of Bee University, and right now, no one knew her, not after she had made her debut the previous day and had become the mentor of many ladies.She was Sarah, Ares’s ex-girlfriend, and getting out of the driver’s side beside her was Michael, her fiancee.***** 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
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
*****“So, you're telling me that everyone in your organization has been searching for me for years?” Ares’s expression remained stoic as he looked at the elderly man who refused to stand up no matter how much he insisted.“That is correct, grandmaster. All the elders and members of the organization would be overjoyed to learn that you've finally been located after these countless years.” As though he had just discovered a long-lost treasure that would save the country from total annihilation, the old man exclaimed.Ares did not even know what to feel about the old man’s strange story and excitement.Of course, he does not believe in any of the other party’s words.'How the heck would you even see me for the first and immediately ascertain that me, an orphan who was abandoned since childhood was the master of the so-called Order of the Immortal Shield? Isn’t that too absurd?’He began to eye the old man with pity, regarding him as someone who was sick upstairs.Eventually, he sighed h
***** ‘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
*****“You… you… you… don’t come near me.”Ares’s fear, which was already at the top quickly magnified, and then he felt like sobbing.Meanwhile seeing him like this, the weirdo, who was very close to Ares now grinned demonically."I see you've finally recollected your wrongdoing," he mocked abruptly, eyeing Ares from head to toe before clicking his tongue with sarcasm. “Looking at you sissy though, I still can’t understand how that bitch would be so blind to not see another guy to sleep with other than you. Tsk.”His tone of speech was filled to the brim with condensation, but Ares couldn’t be bothered with something like that at a time like this. No, in fact, he prefers it this way.“Sir… sir, I can swear to you by my life that it was a mistake. Everything was a mistake. I never had the intention of having anything to do with your young master’s woman. I… it was all the devil’s work.”Ares’s eyes became teary, but Jackal only smiled even more coldly.“Well, that was unfort
***** "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
