"What? You want me to give this house to Jhon? Do you know what you're talking about?" Selina really couldn't wrap her head around the way her parents were thinking.She would have forgotten all the bad things her parents had done to her and her son, if only they had stopped bothering her and her son. But now, not only were they putting her down again, they were even asking for the house Austin had bought for her to be given to Jhon.Mrs. Barnett raised her eyebrows, a little unhappy with Selina's response, "why? Shouldn't a younger sibling help her older sibling? After all, you two are siblings, giving this house to your brother should be fine..." Mrs. Barnett ended with a chuckle as she held Jhon's arm proudly."Brotherly relations you say? What a joke, you never even helped me when Austin and I were in our hard times, on top of that you even kicked us out of the Barnett family residence, and what? You want me to give this house to that useless person? Don't even think about it!" Se
Austin never thought that the Healing Liquid would come in handy at a time like this. He didn't know how bad Jimmy's condition was, but hearing Caroline's explanation, it seemed like Jimmy's condition was practically one step closer to the gates of death.Austin also didn't know how strong the effect of the Healing Liquid was, nor had he tried it before due to his incredible endurance. There was no way anyone in this world could hurt him, even a firearm probably wouldn't be able to penetrate his skin.Perhaps it was time for him to test how strong the healing effect of the Healing Liquid was. If indeed the effect was able to cure cancer, no doubt the medical world would go crazy and they would hunt down the Healing Liquid from him at exorbitant prices.Keep in mind that even with today's technological advances, curing chronic diseases like cancer is still impossible. The most advanced hospitals in the world can only slow down the spread of cancer cells and cannot cure cancer patients
Jimmy still looked doubtful, he didn't immediately agree to Austin's request but thought about it carefully. He may be old and one step closer to death, but he still wants to live at least until he sees his family can live independently without help from him.Of all the things in this world, it was his family members that he was most worried about. The Rose family was known as a business family in the city of Winston and there would be a lot of pressure for the person who would inherit the position. Jimmy as the Managing Director of the Rose Group of companies knew all too well how much pressure he was under because of his position.'Fuck it, I'd better give it a try...' Jimmy mentally made up his mind."Alright, then you can use the liquid your acquaintance invented on me." So what if the liquid had no effect on him? After all, he was going to die soon, and as Austin said, he wouldn't die even if the liquid couldn't cure his cancer at all, at least it wasn't harmful to his body.Jimm
"What's with that unexpected reaction of yours?" Jimmy raised both eyebrows, looking at Austin with suspicion. Did Austin have a crush on his granddaughter?Austin immediately shook his head while waving his hands frantically, "ah, no, it's not like that. I was just surprised..."Jimmy smiled wryly, "oh, you don't like Caroline. I was going to set you up with Caroline, you two actually look good together.""Grandpa! What are you talking about? Never mind, you should rest and wait until grandma comes home. I told you about your condition earlier, she should be here soon..." Caroline pulled Austin's arm to rush out of Jimmy's room. The conversation her grandfather had mentioned really surprised her, how could he intend to set her up with Austin?Thinking about it, she glanced at Austin who also looked back at her. "What's wrong?" asked Austin, questioning the meaning of Caroline's gaze at him."No, I'm sorry. Grandpa is like that, he's always rambling on and on without caring about othe
Jhon gave Serena a cold stare. Selina's house was his, Serena couldn't take the luxurious house away from him. Even if he had to fight Serena, he would."I don't disagree with your words. Mom already explained it earlier, didn't she? Selina's house will be mine and you should not interfere in this matter. Also like you said just now, if the company's salary can later allow me to buy a mansion, then what about you who holds the highest power in the family company? Can't you buy a private airport with that money?" Jhon no longer relented, all the good things were always given to Serena while he only got the rest."You..." When Serena was about to explode with anger, George immediately held her back, "don't make a scene. We haven't eaten together in a long time and you want to ruin this meal because of your anger? It's enough that you embarrassed me at the shopping mall, now you want to embarrass me in front of your mother and father? Control your temper!" George couldn't keep quiet when
Noah Halbert, the new student who was now sitting right next to Austin. The sight of two handsome guys sitting together made the girls in the class squeal with happiness. When else would they see two handsome guys in their class, especially when they were both sitting on the same bench...Austin himself didn't care about any of that, he looked at Noah Halbert who seemed a little disturbed by his gaze. "Hey, why did you choose to sit here? Can't you see the bench over there is still empty?" Actually Austin didn't mind Noah sitting next to him, but honestly he was uncomfortable if he continued to be the center of attention.Well although his good looks alone were enough to make all the girls in his school crazy about him, but there was no need to add to his 'popularity' level right? He just wanted to live modestly and continue to live his days uninterrupted.Noah Halbert glanced at Austin, but then he ignored him. Silent, not replying to Austin's words. Austin who saw that was of course
Bianca's small back accidentally bumped into Austin's field chest. The sentence Austin had just said to Eddy made her heart beat faster than usual, no, maybe soon her heart would explode."Who are you? And what do you mean by that?" Austin's sudden arrival upset Eddy, especially when he saw Austin's face. Damn it, why is this guy more handsome than him?"Didn't you hear? She's my girlfriend and you can't get close to her, let alone bother her." Austin firmly claimed Bianca as his girlfriend, at least he could do that to make the man with a nose leave Bianca's presence and not bother her anymore.This time Eddy looked at Bianca with a look of disbelief, "Bianca, is what this man said true? Are you guys dating?"Bianca who really 'wanted' to date Austin without hesitation nodded her head, "That's right, he's my boyfriend. So you better get lost, there's no place for you here!""Bianca, how could you... We broke up a month ago and you're already getting another boyfriend? Is this guy you
Austin slammed his steering wheel in annoyance, with a look of anger on his face, he drove his Aston Martin to the place his mother's kidnapper told him about.Once Austin got to the outskirts of the Southern District, he saw that there were many empty buildings there, but that didn't matter. Austin could hear his mother's voice from a long distance away, so he should be able to find her easily.As the kidnapper had instructed, Austin didn't bring anyone else with him. After all, he alone was enough to destroy a country, let alone a few people at most. He could kill them if he wanted to."I'll make them regret kidnapping my mom..." Austin growled as he walked to an empty building down the street.He could faintly hear the noise inside the building from outside. Austin raised his head, stared at the empty building for a moment, then walked into the building.On the fourth floor of the building, Selina looked fearfully at the eight people in front of her. She never thought that she woul
There were only two young men in the small bookstore. Felix ignored Austin's presence, but on the other hand Austin kept watching Felix.Somehow he felt a strange fluctuation as soon as he saw the man named Felix. He couldn't explain it well, but he knew it was a kind of scientific attraction as Heaven and Earth complemented each other even though they would never merge.Of course Austin could tell clearly that what he was feeling now wasn't any kind of romantic attraction, he wasn't that stupid to interpret it."This seems to be getting more complicated..." Austin muttered. He could have used his abilities and made the girl named Lily come out on her own, but the presence of other people in the room made him think twice.Austin sighed heavily, he looked back at the man named Felix for a moment and then sat down on one of the empty chairs positioned right next to the shop door.He picked up one of the random books and read it. He would think of another way he could meet Lily today or
There was nothing Austin was more worried about than those closest to him. Those who dared to interfere with his people more than deserved the most gruesome death they could receive.Although there were many people who took refuge under Austin's banner, the man showed no strong favoritism at all and gave them a life worthy of their fond memories.Moreover, those who accepted Austin's help were more than willing to follow the young man forever. For them, there was nothing better than following Austin all their lives.But now one of the homeless people whose life Austin saved is likely to be affected by the 'suicide disaster' that is engulfing Winston.Austin might not be too concerned about the safety of other people's lives, but it's a different story when it's his own. He never claimed to be a saint, nor did he ever think of himself as a savior, he just tried to give those people what they deserved when they couldn't get it, happiness.Luna, Finley, Audrey, Vin and Zod gathered in th
Hia eyes snapped open as he felt something like ice water pouring over him. He didn't realize what was happening and looked around him with a questioning gaze.He was in a dark room that gave off an eerie impression, moreover he just realized that he was sitting with both his hands and feet bound in thick chains. But the shock didn't last long as he remembered that he was a Magician. He should be able to break these chains easily.Unfortunately he could not sense the presence of magic here, in short he could not use his magic here which made his resistance futile."Trying to run?" a heavy voice sounded, the small man focused his gaze towards the source of the voice and found a large man with long hair and a thick beard and mustache covering his facial features.The man was more accurately described as a monstrous monster than a human. This was the first time he had seen anyone with an appearance and demeanor as terrifying as the man in front of him."W-who are you? Where am I?"The bi
Vin is naturally an arrogant person, often looking down on those he perceives as his prey.He was not a virtuous or benevolent person like the heroic heroes in some heroic novels.He himself realized that he was cruel and merciless, but all that kind of cruelty was extinguished once he faced Austin. As arrogant as he was and even if his arrogance was as vast as the ocean and as high as the sky, it was nothing in front of Austin Barnett.He could still be a bit arbitrary in front of Luna and Finley, but it was a different matter when he faced Austin Barnett. All he could do was bow his head respectfully, because in his heart, in the hearts of all the members of the Night Squad, Austin was a true ruler with tremendous power in his hands.There were only a few moments where the Night Squad could see Austin's power, and that was less than ten times. Austin rarely used his personal power, but once he got serious, even the Gods themselves couldn't stop him.Vin looked at the small man who w
Finley exhaled slowly, then sheathed his pair of longswords again. His eyes gazed at the natural geography in front of him that had been destroyed by his battle with the woman in the red dress earlier.There was something weighing on his heart, but Finley tried not to think too much about it. This was something he was used to after the Night Squad came under Austin Barnett's banner. There were no premeditated acts of murder or anything like that, just brutal massacres that were extremely destructive.If before the Night Squad was a group of owls working in the dark, once the Night Squad became Austin Barnett's right-hand man, they became a group of eagles that openly dominated every territory. Challenging anyone who dared to disturb them, killing prey without a second thought.The man turned around, leaving the scene of the fight with his staggering steps.Meanwhile, in the woods on the other side of Winston, Vin circled in the middle of a large field. The black shadow had dragged him
A man was running in the darkness as if he was chasing something. His gaze was fixed on a black shadow that was darting so fast, he almost couldn't catch up with it if his boss didn't give him a magical equipment that could increase his speed.The man running with the magical shoes was none other than Vin. He was investigating Winston's suicide, but in the middle of the investigation he found something that made him curious."Damn it, why is it so fast!" Vin cursed, he had run as fast as he could but his distance from the black shadow was still the same, even a little further.The uneven terrain of the forest and the many shady trees around it hampered Vin's movements. Trying to catch up from the sky was definitely not a good option, as the black shadow was too opaque for it to easily blend into the darkness of the night.Letting his guard down, Vin would instantly lose his trail.As the black shadow's movements quickened, Vin widened his eyes in disbelief. Previously he believed that
Just as there is always a shadow behind the light, so is Winston's current condition.One should not describe the evil and good sides easily. They should dive to the bottom and search deeper into what evil really is and what good really is.A mass murderer today would be considered a true ditactor, but a massacre during a war in the past would be considered something that they had to do in order to create a prosperous kingdom or empire.Each action has its own time.Behind the catastrophic 'suicides' that are happening in Winston, there are some groups of people who are taking advantage of the gruesome cases spread throughout the city by creating more chaos in the city.Some wreak havoc openly, while others wreak havoc in the dark. While the residents are busy protecting themselves from factors that could affect their mental health, the criminals in the darkness launch their actions.Inside a suite in a five-star hotel in the city center, a middle-aged man sits on the room's sofa over
No one knows better than him that power is everything. The stronger you are, the more power you can wield. With absolute power in his hands, everything would bow beneath his feet, kowtowing and licking the toes of his shoes masterfully.Austin didn't want great power in his hands at first, instead, he wanted to live a simple life without any burden on his shoulders with his parents and everyone he cared about. But the more he knew that in order to realize such peace, he needed great power in his hands.Now that he is the guardian of Earth, there are some mysterious and ancient facts that have only become known after he took this position. Facts that only he knows and may also be known by other ancient existences, but Austin does not know whether those ancient existences are still alive today or have been buried deep in the Earth's core.However, the position of Earth's guardian cannot be occupied by just anyone, only those who can defeat the three mythical creatures of the ocean are w
The extremely rare occurrence of Dimensional Energy made Austin travel the world more vigorously to visit some untouched locations and ascertain if there were any other visible Dimensional Energy or traces that might have been left by other beings.However, those who can control Dimensional Energy are not simple characters, they could be invincible existences like the three mythical beasts guarding the Earth or even existences equivalent to Gods.Although the little black centipede the other day looked very vulnerable as if it could easily die if stepped on at any time, the fact that it was able to enter a small dimensional gate was proof that it was able to navigate the chaotic currents of time and go to other worlds in this vast universe.Now Austin was in the interior of a fairly dense forest. It was far away from the city and there were only a few villages in the forest that maintained a traditional lifestyle amidst the rampant modern lifestyle.Austin stroked his chin as he looke
