Battle of the immortals Chapter 41: An Old Friend
Royce stood by the roadside, thinking hard about his next move. He suddenly had a bright idea:he could try to get a job at the presidential villa! But he began to doubt. How would someone like him land a job in such a place? Was there even an opening?Shaking off his doubt, he waved down a passing taxi. "Can you take me to Cedar Lane, please?" he asked the driver once he was inside.As the taxi drove through the streets, Royce feared within. He was on his way to see an old friend, Dan, who might be able to help. Dan's father worked at the presidential villa, which gave Royce a glimpse of hope.Reaching his destination, Royce paid the taxi driver and got out. He walked quickly, his heart pounding nervously. The street was eerily quiet, with only the whispering breeze breaking the silence. Royce couldn't believe how deserted everything seemed; it was nothing like the Parkland he remembered. He arrived in front of a dilapidated house, typical of those found in poorer areas—its paint wa

Royce returned to the police station and went straight to the officer he had met the other day.Pulling some coins from his pocket, he gestured for the officer to let him see Dan again. Without wasting time, the officer took the coins, glanced around to ensure no one was watching, and then tucked the coins into his pocket.The officer secretly led Royce to Dan's cell. "Hey, step out," the officer commanded, but Dan didn't respond. "I said come out!" the officer repeated, his voice more forceful. When Dan still didn't move, the officer went in and dragged him out, snapping handcuffs onto his wrists behind his back.He pushed Dan to sit in front of Royce, who was already seated in a chair. Dan glared at Royce, his breath coming in angry bursts."What do you want this time?" Dan spat out, his voice laced with bitterness. "Glad to see you here again," he added, gritting his teeth.Royce began calmly, "See Dan, I'm here to help you. I'm here to bail you out of here. Just give me the chance

Some security agents were already there, and Lorenz gave them a casual wave as he passed.Inside, the atmosphere changed. As soon as the delegates noticed Lorenz entering, they all stood up and bowed in respect. Mr. Thompson, who seemed very pleased to see him, stepped forward with a handshake."Welcome, Mr. President. We are glad to have you with us today," Mr. Thompson said, smiling warmly."Thank you, it's my pleasure to be here," Lorenz replied, returning the smile as he sat down.Mr. Thompson faced the room, still smiling.

"Mr. Royce, you are next in line," the female messenger called out to Royce, who was sitting outside, waiting to be called in.Royce stood up and walked into the room. It wasn't very big, but it was beautiful and cool. The air felt fresh, and the room's beauty was captivating; it was the kind of place no one would want to leave once they entered.However, the sight of the interview panel before him scared him to his bones. He swallowed hard and walked gently to the vacant seat where he was to be interviewed. He sat down carefully, glancing nervously at the panel.Mrs. Veronica Rodriguez, a middle-aged woman in her 50s, was heading the interview panel. She began, "Mr. Royce Evans, glad to have you here today. We love the smile on your face, and we hope it continues like that till the end of this interview."Royce smiled, trying to relax as Veronica smiled back at him.Veronica continued, "Mr. Royce, could you tell us a little about your personal life, your background? Do you have any s

Linda Newman walked in, a lady in her early 30s with blonde hair flowing down to her waist.Linda walked straight to Fischer, who was at his desk, fingers flying over the keyboard as he worked intently on his desktop."Good morning, sir," Linda said, bowing slightly as she held the envelope she had tucked under her arm. "This is from Parkland, sir. It says it's a proposal to the president."Fischer glanced at her for a moment, then gestured for her to hand over the letter."It's a sealed letter, sir," Linda said as she saw Fischer trying to check it out."I know," Fischer responded as he began to tear the letter open.He pulled out the letter and started to read, his expression changing from curiosity to seriousness as he scanned the contents.Linda stood there, waiting quietly. She noticed how Fischer's brows furrowed as he read, his face reflecting deep thoughts."What does it say, sir?" Linda asked softly.Fischer looked up, fold
Battle of the immortals Chapter 46: A Tough Decision
One by one, the cabinet members began to speak.The Minister of Trade started, "Mr. President, I think we should trade with Parkland. They have the resources that we need, and we have what they want. This could boost our economy significantly."The Minister of Finance added, "I agree with my colleague. Your Excellency, trading with Parkland could open new financial avenues for us, I see this as an opportunity we shouldn't let go."The Minister of Defense spoke next, "From a security perspective, an alliance with Parkland would be beneficial.

Battle of the immortals Chapter 47: Escape
Lorenz was sitting in his study, his right leg crossed over his lap, smiling. He was glad to have received a response accepting his proposal from Mawuta.Suddenly, as usual, the room began to vibrate heavily, with things shattering all over the place. He felt disturbed and scared. Immediately, Grimnar appeared before him.Lorenz was disappointed. He no longer felt scared of Grimnar's form. He hissed and said, "Could you stop scattering the place? Every time you come, there are better ways to appear." He began to pick up the scattered materials on the floor, muttering to himself.Grimnar's dark figure loomed over him, but Lorenz kept his focus on tidying up. "I'm serious, Grimnar," he said, not looking up. "This is getting old.”Grimnar watched him, his eyes glowing with a strange intensity. "I have news," Grimnar said, his voice deep and echoing. "Important news."Lorenz paused, his hands full of papers. "What is it?" he asked, still kneeling on the floor.Grimnar began, "It's good th
Battle of the immortals Chapter 48: Behind Bars.
Royce went through the basement, holding his bleeding arm, and could still hear soldiers looking for him. He winced in pain, feeling very thirsty. He heard footsteps behind him but saw no one when he looked back. The footsteps ceased. He continued moving forward, holding his bleeding arm and searching for an escape route. Luckily, he found an opening into the villa's sewage pipe. Just as he entered the pipe, a bullet whizzed past him, narrowly missing and causing damage ahead. He heard a voice mutter, "Missed it," followed by the cocking of a gun. Royce moved quickly through the pipe as heavy gunfire erupted behind him. Covering his nose from the stench, he pushed forward, trying to move through the sewage. The smell and filth made him gag, but he pressed on, determined to escape. The pipe was dark and slimy, making every step difficult. His body ached, and he felt weak, but he knew he couldn't stop.After moving and struggling through the slimy, stinking pipe, Royce heard a famili
