Battle of the immortals Chapter 25: A Visitor
"Master, you have a visitor," a demon said as he entered the room.Silence.Grimnar kept enjoying his bath in the big, green hot water tub. The water glowed green and steam filled the room, making it warm and foggy.Some guards stood around him, quietly fanning him with big, old-fashioned fans."Master, you aren't responding. I said—" the demon started, but Grimnar cut him off."Are you out of your mind?" Grimnar snapped."I heard you for the first time. I don't need visitors right now. I need some time to myself," Grimnar said as he sank deeper into the green water."But... but sire, it's urgent," the demon insisted, crossing his arms. He lowered his head and added, "It's a visitor from the East.""Tell them the great Grimnar doesn't accept visitors from the East," Grimnar commanded as he twisted around in the water."Alright, sire, I got your message," the demon said quickly and dashed out of the room respectfully. The room fell silent again.Breaking the silence, a tall and huge be

Aethon told Royce, "Now, it's time to learn how to fight."Royce stood up straight, looking like a soldier ready for battle.Aethon held Royce's hand firmly, his voice determined. "Come, there's somewhere important I need to take you to," he insisted."I can see you're already strong," Aethon observed, giving Royce's chest a firm pat.As they neared their destination, Royce's eyes widened at the sight of a building shaped like a giant sword. The sword radiated from the sunlight, with sharp edges pointing towards the sky.Royce, eager to proceed, rushed forward, but Aethon quickly stopped him."Hey, take it easy," Aethon cautioned, gently pulling Royce back towards him. "You can't just rush into this place."He continued, his tone serious, "There are fierce gatekeepers here. They wouldn't hesitate to behead you without a word." Aethon's voice dropped to a whisper.Royce's eyes shrunk as he looked at the building shaped like a sword. He wasn't scared, even though Aethon had mentioned th
Battle of the immortals Chapter 27: Fooled by the Gods
Zarvox approached Grimnar, who sat on his throne with a scowl on his face. "What about your second-in-command?" he inquired."That traitor," Grimnar spat out, his voice filled with anger. "He fled, calling me worthless," he growled, clenching his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white."I'll hunt him down and crush him," Grimnar declared, his tone menacing as he spoke of revenge.Zarvox continued, offering his advice. "Grimnar, perhaps it's wise to consider your actions carefully before acting," he advised calmly, hoping to temper Grimnar's rage with reason.Grimnar glared at Zarvox, his anger clear. "You can't tell me what to do," he said sharply."Why do you respect the mountain god and the desert god so much?" Zarvox asked, settling into his seat with curiosity.Grimnar looked shocked. He didn't know how Zarvox knew about his connections to these gods."Surprised, huh?" Zarvox said, noticing Grimnar's startled look. He smiled slightly, amused by Grimnar's reaction.Stammer
Battle of the immortals Chapter 28: Political Greed.
Zarvox stood up and approached the screen, his eyes fixed on the holographic display showcasing the upcoming presidential election in Parkland. Grimnar watched intently as Zarvox began to explain."In Parkland," Zarvox began, “three candidates are running for the presidential position. However, one candidate stands out as the best, but we can't use him."Grimnar furrowed his brow in curiosity. "And why can't we use him?" he asked, with interest in his eyes.Zarvox turned to face Grimnar, a look of disdain crossing his features. "Because he's too weak for us," he explained. "He takes things too seriously, and he'll go to any length to destroy evil. We must do everything in our power to stop him from interfering with our plans." Zarvox grinned wickedly, his eyes gleaming with mischief. "Penn Lorenz is the perfect target for us. He's a greedy politician, the type we can easily manipulate to serve our interests."Grimnar's expression soured, clearly unimpressed. "And how exactly do you s
Battle of the immortals Chapter 29: Failed Promises
Lorenz sat quietly for a few moments, thinking hard about the offer. Suddenly, he had a thought that shook him: What if these men were setting him up to lose the election? He looked at them closely, his eyes sharp.Leaning forward, Lorenz spoke firmly, "I know what you're up to. You're spies from the opponent's camp, trying to trap me. But your plan won't work. Try again next time."Victor and Alex exchanged a glance and then smiled. Alex responded confidently, "Mr. Lorenz, we respect your political experience. It shows you've been in this game for a long time." He paused, still smiling, and placed the briefcase on the floor next to his chair.Lorenz looked at Victor and Alex suspiciously as Victor spoke up, "Alright, let's do this another way. Trust us, we're serious."Victor then reached into his briefcase and pulled out a book. He opened it to a page where the name of the winning presidential candidate was already written. Lorenz's eyes widened in shock. He knew that such a book co
Battle of the immortals Chapter 30:Uninvited guests
Lorenz couldn't speak over the noise of the audience. He stood there silently, arms crossed, watching them shout. The council members tried to calm them down, but one of them lost his voice from shouting, his face turning red as he coughed.Eventually, the audience quieted down, and the room fell silent.Still coughing, the man gestured for Lorenz to continue speaking.Lorenz's voice rose in anger as he addressed the crowd. "Poverty has taken hold of you! Give me a chance to change that! Don't be foolish! Do you want to remain poor forever?!"Upon hearing Lorenz's words, a voice from the crowd shouted out, "He's calling us poor!" The accusation startled Lorenz, and the crowd erupted into chaos once again."Calm down, everyone!" Lorenz shouted above the noise. "I understand you're upset, but please, give me a chance to help you. We can work together!"But his plea fell on deaf ears as another voice, bold and defiant, cut through the uproar. "That's an insult! We don't need your help!"
Battle of the immortals Chapter 31: Incriminating Evidence
"I saw the way you presented your manifesto at the last presidential campaign, and I must say, Mr. John, you are the best," Steven said, extending his hand for a shake."It's my pleasure, Mr. Steven. We do everything for the people, and I believe if they could give me a chance, I would give them a better life and a better country," John replied with a smile."Of course, what else if not their support," Steven remarked, causing them to all laugh again."So, what brings you to my humble abode?" John asked, leaning back in his chair.Steven cleared his throat, preparing to weave the first thread of deception. "Well, Mr. John, we've been observing the political environment for quite some time now, and we've noticed some concerning trends."James nodded in agreement. "Yes, indeed. There are whispers among the council members about your potential candidacy, and some are expressing doubts about your ability to lead effectively."John furrowed his brows, a hint of skepticism in his eyes. "Is
Battle of the immortals Chapter 32: Journey To Earth.
Back at Aethon's camp…..Aethon burst into the training room, where Royce was training with a soldier. The sound of clashing swords echoed through the room as they displayed their skills with swords, kicks, and fists."We need to talk," Aethon said, interrupting the intense training session. He pulled Royce away from the scene, leaving the other soldier to catch his breath."What's going on?" Royce asked, wiping sweat from his brow as they stepped aside for privacy.Aethon's face was serious as he delivered the shocking news. "The Dark Covenant has invaded Earth," he said seriously."What?!" Royce gasped, his brow furrowing in confusion. "How did they manage that? I thought Grimnar needed me to invade the Earth. How could he bypass me?"Aethon nodded, understanding Royce's confusion. "Yes, he indeed needs you, and he still does. Without you, he can't bring his forces onto the Earth. You're a priest, and only you can help summon the spirits here."He paused, letting the information sin

Joe made his way back to the villa, his anger boiling over. He wanted to confront Lorenz and expose his wicked acts to the world.He entered the villa and stormed toward Lorenz's office, forcefully barging the door open. Lorenz was at his desk, working. Noticing Joe's rough entrance, he looked up, his eyes narrowing as Joe moved closer to his desk.Lorenz eyed Joe from head to toe, then finally spoke. "What is it? Haven't I paid you off?"Joe's voice shook with fury. "I have been loyal to you all these years, and all you could pay me back with is the dead bodies of my family. I swear, Lorenz, you will pay for this."Lorenz stood up and got in Joe's face. "How dare you call me by my name! You must be a bastard, son of a monster!"Joe's anger surged. "I promise you, Lorenz, you will regret this," he said, beating his chest in frustration.But Lorenz just laughed loudly, snubbing him and returning to his work. Joe's frustration peaked, and he clenched his fists, staring at Lorenz intentl
Chapter 61: Wickedness
Joe swam through the deep sea, but his life jacket gradually failed him. He saw a shore up ahead, but reaching it was now the problem. As he forced himself to swim, a shark came to his side. Panic surged through him, and he began to swim as fast as he could, the shark pursuing him relentlessly.With all his energy left, Joe spotted a boat passing by and managed to grab hold of it. The fishermen on board shouted in alarm, trying to shake him off."He's a pirate! Chase him away!" one of the fishermen yelled, shaking his oar.Seeing the shark closing in, Joe begged, "Please, help me! There's a shark!"The fishermen saw the shark and, realizing the danger, pulled Joe onto the boat just in time. As the shark drew closer, one of the fishermen swung a big hook at the shark's head. Blood poured into the water, and Joe watched in horror as the water turned red and the dead shark sank into the depths.As Joe caught his breath, the fishermen began to question him."Who are you?" one fisherman as
Chapter 60: Pollutant
Joe slipped into the ship through a small maintenance hole, wearing a mask. Darkness filled the lower deck as he moved quietly through the ship. The sound of the sea was muted here, replaced by the hum of the engines and the distant chatter of the crew.He heard voices and footsteps approaching as he moved through the narrow passageways. He quickly ducked behind a stack of crates, holding his breath as two crew members passed, their conversation fading into the distance.Once the coast was clear, Joe continued moving. He found the storage area where the gold was kept. Two security guards stood at the entrance, their attention on the corridor. Joe crept up behind them and grabbed a cloth from a nearby crate, swiftly choking one guard while covering his mouth to prevent any noise. Realizing what was happening, the second guard reached for his gun, but Joe acted quickly. He sent the first guard unconscious with a powerful punch and grabbed a fire extinguisher, swinging it at the second g

Joe was taken aback. "Sir, what's going on?""You think I don't know what you've been doing?" Lorenz continued, his voice rising. "I sent you on a mission, and you’re out there partying, drinking, wasting time! Do you have any idea what’s at stake?"Joe's heart pounded. "Sir, I—""Shut up and listen!" Lorenz interrupted. "You have one week to do your job. If you fail, you’ll wish you were never born."The line went silent as Joe absorbed Lorenz's words. "I understand, sir," he finally replied, his voice shaking.Immediately after the call ended, Joe began to grumble and hiss loudly. "What nonsense! He ordered I shouldn't do anything, and now he's on my neck. What a stupid old fool," Joe said, throwing his phone into his pocket.He stood there angrily, thinking about what to do next. The lady he had been dancing with came over and said, "Hey sweet, what's the problem with you? Come dance with me," as she continued to sway to the music.Without looking at her, Joe pushed her away.

He was the best president Mawuta had ever had, and his tenure was promising.When the day came, Fischer took to the press to make a big announcement. People listened attentively as he appeared on the screens in homes and on the streets, knowing he always brought good news.Fischer began, clearing his throat."Seeing the present growth of the economy," Fischer started, "I, President Fischer, have always wanted this growth from the start. We can see that the economy is not the same as it has been for years. So, to celebrate this developing economy, I, President Fischer, declare a work-free day! It's a day to party!"The whole country erupted in joy upon hearing that. Wherever people were, they shouted in celebration.A popcorn vendor was about to hand a hot bag of popcorn to a customer. When he heard the news, he threw the popcorn up joyfully and moved away from the counte
Chapter 57: Suspicion
The ship from Mawa and the ship from Parkland always agreed to meet at Port Mirath. After two days of sailing, Captain Henry finally reached the port, arriving early before the boat from Parkland. The crew members on the Mawuta ship waited patiently.Finally, after much waiting, the crew members and Captain Henry heard the ship's horn from Parkland and rejoiced greatly. They all clapped loudly, their claps echoing over the sea waves.Captain Morgan from Parkland got off his ship and met Captain Henry. They had become good friends since the trade began. They smiled and hugged each other tightly as they watched the cargo being exchanged."Hey, don't let that fall over!" Morgan screamed as he saw one of Mawuta's workers roughly handling the oil barrels. He turned to Henry. "This is clean gold, and it's so shiny.""Oh yeah, we produce nothing but quality," Henry responded.Morgan asked, taking out a note and pen, "So how many sacks?"Henry replied, "Those are 200,000 sacks of gold, more t
Chapter 56: Trade Begins
"Load those sacks well, and make sure they are well-tied! I won't condone any mistakes from anyone!" Joe shouted authoritatively, ordering the workers in his unit to carry the sacks into the heavy-duty truck. The truck was set to transport the gold to the ship that would take it to Parkland.The workers were picking up the sacks roughly, and Joe struggled to monitor them. They moved haphazardly, causing him frustration. "Okay, you know what, everyone, form a queue now! I don't want to see anyone picking gold without being in this queue!" he commanded. The workers immediately obeyed and formed a line.One by one, they came forward and picked up gold sacks. When a worker picked a sack that seemed too light, Joe called him back. You can do better than that. Drop that and take this one," Joe said, handing him a heavier sack. The worker, without hesitation, picked it up and carried it on his arm, making Joe wonder why he hadn't picked it up at first.The queue was moving steadily, and the

Joe searched for a quiet spot to call Lorenz. He looked around and dialled Lorenz's number, realising no One Was Nearby. The phone rang a few times before Lorenz picked up."R. President, thank goodness you picked up. I finally got the job, but I noticed something..."Joe paused, rechecking his surroundings to make sure no one was approaching. Seeing the clear coast, he continued," R. President, I realised these people were so nice to me. Do you have a hand in this?" He smiled as he asked.Lorenz laughed loudly, his voice echoing over the phone. "h, just a kid, Joe. You need to learn a lot."Lorenz laughed again and said, "Don't worry about that. Leave that to me. Just play along with them and be nice. Be a good boy.""h yes, Mr. President. I will surely be," Joe responded, smiling.LLorenz'svoice turned serious. "When the intestines strike, I'll let you know.""Always at your service, boss," Joe said as the call ended.Immediately, Joe received an alert on his phone. Lorenz had sent
