*****“Where is this guy? What’s taking him so long to bring back a mere fucking little human being to this young master?”Mason’s eyes were incredibly dark at this moment as he grumbled to himself.Due to the delay, he, someone who seldom remains at home, had been inside since he returned from where he went that morning.He had repeatedly envisioned all the torments he planned to inflict upon Ares, both physically, spiritually, and emotionally, once he was brought to him.Despite knowing that the addicted Jackal would have likely already consumed a significant portion of Ares's soul and vitality, he remained undeterred in his plans. In fact, he intentionally tasked Jackal with the mission in order to inflict torture upon Ares first before delivering him. “I won’t forgive that dude if he so much tries to finish that bastard. He should just not return to this place if he has done that.”Mason’s voice suddenly became darker as he recalled the countless mistakes that Jackal had be
*****In a living room enveloped in an eerie atmosphere that could only be noticed by someone with an extraordinary awareness, a lady was presently trying to sexually arouse a man, well, at least, that was what one would think if they were to see what Rebeca was doing to Mason right now if they had no idea that she was only ‘comforting‘ him If it were any other day, Mason's resolve to not view Rebecca as a sexual interest, to avoid jeopardizing anything that would make Olivia hate him, would have likely faltered. The current temptation would have overwhelmed him, leading him to actions he wouldn't have been able to resist. However, in his current state of pain, shock, and disbelief, he was too overwhelmed to even feel Rebecca's advances. ‘So, she wasn’t even a saint all along! Why did I fail to check if her yin energy was still there after the first few times of checking?!’‘Why did I choose to trust that bitch! Even slowing down my cultivation speed, due to the reduction of my
***** As soon as Ares opened his eyes, a dense and suffocating atmosphere emanated from them. Despite the stillness of the surroundings and the absence of wind, the trees suddenly began to shake violently, as if they were struggling to uproot themselves and flee. It did not stop there, the sudden presence was so heavy and oppressive to the extent that all the dead trees in the area directly shattered into powder and were blown away. This scene was so enchanting that it would have caused ordinary people to tremble and kneel in reverence to the heavens, believing it to be the work of a divine being if they had witnessed it. Unfortunately or fortunately, depending on perspective, only a few birds and animals, already frightened into fleeing for their lives, along with Ares were present to witness it. In an instant, Ares, who had been lying motionless on the ground, hidden beneath dried leaves like a corpse shot up with an incredible speed that could not be seen with the eye. T
***** ‘To think that real extraordinary and extraterrestrial being really lives in this world as was always stated in movies.’ The more Ares felt the power coursing through and brimming in his body, the more astounded he became. Before today, although he understood that this world wasn’t as simple as it appeared, thanks to his healing pendant, Ares had never expected that it would be even more complicated than he had ever imagined it to be. Once again, he sighed. Ares was currently filled with immense excitement, but his only regret was still related to financial matters. Despite possessing immense strength and the ability to destroy anything now, he also had skills such as healing and formation crafting, which could sustain him. However, there was still a long journey ahead before he could fully monetize these skills, especially considering his current situation. This was what Ares was filled with when without warning, something that was being discussed more than twenty
***** “Brothers!!” Without slowing down at all nor minding his entire body that was already drenched in his sweat, Ares rushed toward his brothers and drag them back up just as they were on the verge of licking the shoes of Michael, who has a cocky and arrogant smile on his face at this moment as he looked down on the men as though they weren’t human beings, but of lower creatures. Nobody had expected Ares’s sudden arrival. Not his brothers, not Michael, not the dean, who was seated and currently ogling at Sarah, and not Sarah, who had been gleefully recording what was going on. “Third… third brother, is that you?” As soon as the two brothers felt Mark dragging them back, they looked at him, and immediately, as though they weren’t men, hot tears of injustice fell from their eyes. Ares’s heart ached greatly when he saw this and the hatred that had been gnawing away his heart intensified. “I’m sorry. I’m so sorry for arriving late!” He apologized right from the bottom of his hea
***** Ares found it extremely difficult to believe the revelation of what he just learned. He could still recall the scene of his brothers’ hellbent trying to lick Michael’s shoes. ‘So it was for me?’ He thought, powerful goosebumps covering his skin. ‘They… they would rather allow themselves be ridiculed, embarrassed, and made to lick shoes just because they want me, their little brothers to continue studying. This…” Before he knew it, Ares’s eyes became completely blurry with tears and he couldn’t make out even a single thing. He looked at his brothers, but then they sighed, seeing him like this. They knew that they couldn’t deny anything again. "Don't dwell on it too much, little brother. We, your older siblings, have outgrown the class we were in, anyway, and besides, you're much smarter than us, able to earn a scholarship from your freshman year to now, so it is only fair to give you this chance. You'll soon graduate and land a white-collar job, which will help take care of
***** “Master Robert, please come in sir, welcome to my office, sir.” Although the Dean tried as much as he could to act calm the moment he saw old master Robert walking in after the guard, he failed woefully and he sounded nothing more than a fanatic fan who had just seen his favorite celebrity. “Hmm.” Master Robert nodded his, showing no interest in exchanging pleasantries, knowing his master's sole concern was finding the grandmaster—a quest he had undertaken long before becoming his disciple. When the dean received his nod as a response to his warm and respectful greeting, he wasn't angry at all. No, he even became excited, as he had just received a response from Master Robert. A whole master Robert, one of the few people who stood at the top of the food chain in Rex City. The Dean’s level of excitement alone couldn’t be measured again. Despite his efforts to appear composed and refined in front of the old man, he couldn't prevent occasional trembles, betraying his inner t
*****Within the Dean’s office, all jaws were extensively dropped at this moment and all faces were etched with enormous disbelief.The place was so silent that if a pin were to drop at this moment, its sound would not only be loud, but it would also be clear.‘Grandmaster?’Everybody repeated in their minds, not knowing what to think or say.Even Ares was stunned beyond words.‘Was he not here to apprehend me? How could he still refer to me as a grandmaster?’ He was thoroughly confused. Meanwhile, Master Robert, who had brought about such a profound silence and shock, was equally astonished himself at that moment.The primary rule of the Order of Immortal Shield was to constantly maintain secrecy and never reveal their identities to the public, yet he had woefully forgotten this due to his massive excitement.His mouth fell agape, but then suddenly, an uncomfortable sensation crept over his skin. He trembled as he directly realized that it was induced by his master.He wis
***** "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
