Madam, Harold, and Hannah walked through the open aisle towards where Grandmother was.

"Marie!" Pascal called with his jaws hanging out as he watched Madam keep on walking towards Grandmother.

"They returned? What are they doing here?"

"Do they have no regard for Grandmother?"

"What business do they have to be here?"

"And to think that they barged into the hall while we are in the middle of a meeting!"

There were words flying around until Madam and her two children got to Grandmother and halted. The three leaned forward in a bow to the old woman.

Grandmother was still on her feet. It was as though her old legs were glued to that spot. But on the contrary, it seemed as though she could make a movement but decided to retain that stance of her own free will.

No one could utter any word at that moment. Everyone was watching in utmost curiosity, tracking the events to see what would happen next.

Madam and her children lifted their body, standing upright again.

"What are you doing here

    "Huh?" Achiel couldn't help but wonder what was right in front of him. He was just about to step out of the hall to go confront Madam and put her in her place, but the system window had popped up. Though he knew that he was the one who was responsible for the calamity of Madam at that point, which was well deserved. Yet he felt a need to teach her even further lessons for not staying in her stead. But now the system pop-up seemed to have changed the focus at that point. "Save Grandma? Whereabouts of my real parents?" He read out the display of the system which was right in front of him. He was trying to understand what this means and why the system has been randomly popping up every now and then. That was unusual. The system doesn't pop up this much. What is happening?!While his gaze lingered on the task displaying in front of him, the interface of the system dissolved at once. At that point, he started to hear some shouts from behind him. At his front, he could see the car or

    Achiel arrived at the hotel suite. He carried Grandmother in his arms into his suite. People who were in the lobby were looking at him strangely, but he didn't care too much about their thoughts. He was way too worried about the old woman to get distracted by something like that. When he got into the room, he gently placed the old woman on the bed. He walked away to grab a plastic bottle of water and emptied it into half of its content. He exhaled sharply, then took a deep breath. He walked back into the room and stood next to the bed of the old woman. He kept staring at her. Truth be told, he didn't know what he ought to do at that moment, but he knew that he ought to do something. He couldn't just leave the old woman lying their unconsciously. He swallowed and started to pace, then he stopped again as though he had a change of mind. The system had only told him to save the old woman. He should have asked the system how he ought to go about saving her. He couldn't even think of

    Achiel was getting really impatient this time. He was looking at his wristwatch. He was pacing. He was jumpy. He was beginning to get scared and angry and furious. Occasionally, he would walk back to Grandmother's bed and touch the back of his finger to her nostrils to feel the warm breath. It was still coming, yet the force and pressure were reducing. He could feel it. Her breath was weakening and dispersing gradually. He couldn't really tell how long more he had to keep her alive. He couldn't tell how long she would be able to remain in this unconscious state before she eventually slips into gloom. The thought of it got him madder. It got him madder at the doctor. "Where the hell is this accursed doctor!!!" He cursed angrily, about to kick something in his way. But when he recalled what happened the last time he made contact with something out of rage, he decided to keep his rage in check.He shut his eyes and took in as many deep breaths as possible. He wanted to regulate his

    Achiel felt gobsmacked by the event unfolding right in front of him. At first, the doctor who treated his grandmother had been acting weird. The man acted weird until he struck the man across the face to bring him back to his senses. But that feeling didn't last for long. The Prime Minister, the most renowned and respected person in all of Jade City, had walked into his suite. As if that was not enough, the Prime Minister had dropped on his knees and crawled to meet him. At this moment, the Prime Minister was at Achiel's feet, about to grapple at Achiel's feet. Achiel could see the desperation in the eyes of the Prime Minister. The PM wanted to grapple at Achiel's feet at all cost, but he couldn't bring himself to do it. It seemed like there was something holding him back from carrying out his intention. It was hard to tell what it really was. "Please save me, Great One. Please save this pathetic man." The Prime Minister kept saying the same set of words over and over again. A

    At Achiel's roar, Roland jumped up on his feet. Fear swarmed him, his legs became weak, and he fell several times before he could get a balance. There was something about the roar of Achiel that even Achiel didn't realise. It was as though a million people with deep and husky voices had roared at the same time. Fear gripped Gilbert, too, and both of them scurried out of the suite at once. They couldn't even wait to shut the door. Achiel walked to the door and shut it. He walked away and returned to the room of Grandmother. He kept a long stare at her. It was quite obvious from the activity on his face that he was staring at the old woman as a stimulant to his own thoughts. There were a couple of things to think about at that time. Yet he didn't know which or where to start from. He heaved a heavy sigh. He looked at his wristwatch. It was 12pm. He sighed again. "If they know about the system..." He shook his head. "There is no way they do. They didn't act like it. They wouldn't

    Achiel could only but wonder why Madam was calling him at this point in time. Although he already knew that she was going to call him eventually, he didn't think he would be this early or would be on such an occasion as this. If there was anything he couldn't do at that moment, it was wasting time. It was already strange that Madam walked into the White Hall during a meeting and left without taking a shot at him. The last time he checked, Madam always ruled him out as her worst nightmare. Ever since they were unable to have a direct brawl, he'd known that she would surely reach out to him eventually. Even though this wasn't the best timing, he had no choice but to be over this already. "Will you be silent forever, Marie? I have something important to do." Achiel snapped over the phone as he waited for her to say something. Madam was silent for another few seconds. It was as though she had trailed off over the speaker or was busy thinking of what to say. "You should watch your ba

    In a conference room in the Golden Crest castle, there were several men seated around a large table. At one end of the table, there was Roland, the Prime Minister of Jade City. At the other end of the table, there was the flag of USA seating on the table at the front of a chubby middle-aged man. The President of the US."It is such an honor to have been received by this unique nation, Mr Prime Minister." The President of the US started. There were a couple of dignified men from both countries seated around the table with their leaders. Both groups of men are from the US and Jade City. Of course, to support their respective leaders. "The honor is mutual, Mr. President. Shall we get into the details of this meeting?" Roland seemed quite dismissive as well as impatient. Of course, it was obvious what his concerns were, but he couldn't have shared it with the strange president. "Very well, Mr Prime Minister. We understand that the economic state of Jade City has taken the wings of Ea

    Grandmother is missing? That was the first thing that dropped in Achiel's mind. He couldn't bring himself to understanding what the situation was, yet he knew that he didn't have enough time. He had feared that something like this would happen if he left the old woman by herself, but the possibility was close to zero. He was the only one who had access to his suite. Could there be anyone else who had accessed the suite without his consent?He shook his head, trying to deny the thoughts building. Then he stopped moving his head for a while. "Did she? Did Mira come here?" He exclaimed. The last time, the only person who had a spare key to his suite was Mira. Though the door of the suite had a palmprint feature, yet it had its lock. "She can't. She simply can not. How dare she? I told her to stay put!" He started fusing over the thought. Even though he was yet to arrive at the conclusion, he couldn't help but dismiss the possibility. His mind wandered off for a while. It occurred

    ~ THE THIRD DIMENSION ~A stream of golden light was descending from the sky at an insane speed. Its velocity was beyond the speed of the lightning. It was traveling in a wave and twirl. It kept going and going. When it zoomed past a mist of cloud, the details of the stream of light broadened. Earlier, it appeared as a golden stream of light, but now there seemed to be a hint of blue overshadowing the light. The blueness was like a hue around the golden light. Although the hue was not harsh yet, it was never to be overlooked. Suddenly, the stream of golden light collided with the peak of a bamboo tree. When the collison was made, a blinding light traveled from that place to the end of the whole forest. It was as though the whole place was enveloped in a white brilliance. After a short while, the light died out. When the light died out, there was a lanky and tall man seen standing on the tip of the peak of the bamboo tree. It was as thought hebhwd grown out of thin air. The body

    The towering God of Cosmos stood tall and mightily behind Achiel. Mira still couldn't find the appropriate way to react to it. At first, she thought that he had disappeared with Achiel, but they were still there. Her eyes must be blurring out following the great shock. Suddenly, she noticed the God of Cosmos moving his hands here and there around the room. Mira's eyes followed the directions of his hands that went to and fro. In each direction that he waved his hand, a portal appeared. He waved his hands in five places, and five portals appeared. There was a portal that had been cackling all along. It was through that portal that Achiel wanted to take Mira to the kingdom. "Choose one." The God of Cosmos said out of the blue. "Huh?" Mira was startled by the instruction. She thought that the God of Cosmos had referred to her. When she lifted her gaze slowly to take a quick peek at the immortal being, she realised that she got it all wrong. He wasn't talking to her. He was talkin

    "I can't believe that it really worked as you said." Mira added, awed by the scene that was unfolding on the screen of the phone. "But for how long will he function? I mean, how long would it take for the clone to disappear?" Mira asked. Her tone and voice showed how genuinely concerned and interested she was. She seemed to be clueless yet was fighting for all the intention there was to know. "You didn't have to ask the same question twice. Either way, I'll answer you." Achiel corrected, smiling at her. She should return the smile, but her busy mind wouldn't give her a break from the tumbling thoughts. "For as long as we want." Achiel answered. Mira's brows furrowed when he said those words. The confusion was scribbled on her face. It was way too glaring to be hidden. "We?" Mira finally asked the important question. Achiel sighed as he looked away from the screen of the phone. "I know that all these are strange to you, but you need to grow on the fact. It's something that you

    Outside the Shangri-la tower, there was a scary type of quietness. The level of quietness was really something that could never have been envisaged by anyone. The reason was that there were lots and lots of people who stretched from those premises of the Shangri-la to several kilometers away in a long, broad, and single file. For all these numerous people that have different tastes and have subscribed to different notions and beliefs, to be this quiet, it was something that could never be overlooked. The quietness didn't come of its own accord. Instead, everyone was staring seriously at his phone. Those who were not staring at their phones were looking at the large billboard that was etched into a corner of the tower. Everyone was staring keenly at the screen that was accessible to them respectfully. But what was happening on the screens of all the phones and the billboard were the same thing. Everyone gasped at the same time. On the billboard, there was a lanky man who looked

    Klaus's question attracted a lot of reactions. His words were weighty, and not one person was willing to look to the other side. "Klaus!" Zoe suddenly called at him. Klaus took a glance at her. When he saw her, he looked a little tipped off. For a sheer second, he had forgotten that Zoe was here. In the grand scheme of events at this moment, Zoe was the least important person around when it came to status and class. It was already a wonder that she was present here. Perhaps if she didn't have a feather, she wouldn't be here either. Even Klaus has his. "Don't be offended by my choice of word." Klaus plucked his gaze from her and turned to the whirring camera first before paying attention to the people present. "Pay close attention while I explain this. After this, the couple would be invited in to be celebrated and tied." Klaus's composure had tuned."Although it would totally be an honor to do this even though we are not worthy." Klaus's tone suddenly changed. Something strange

    On the floating peak of Shangri-la, there were numerous people settled down on high-end chairs made out of the purest red gold ever refined. The skin of real-life wild cats that were hand woven were sewn about the chairs, serving as resting pads and the main places where the bum would rest. There were several men of dignity positioned in thoughtful patterns across the space. The sight was so beautiful and opulent. Each of the dignitaries present at that place had a red feather at the top of their hats; each person had a hat on. irrespective of whatever you are wearing, there was a hat to match, and on top of each person's hat was a red feather. The invite!The red feather was the pass for each of the persons that was present on the Peak. The feather looked very rare. It looked to have been plucked from the wings of a Phoenix or several Phoenix.Although the color was red, yet there was this subtle highlight of yellow that made it seem as though it was multicolored. But the truth w

    About 19km away from the Shangri-la Peak, there was a flood of heads. An ocean of bodies standing in the way, making shuffles at occasional periods. The ginormous number of people stretched from that position up to the front of Shangri-la Peak. It was as though the world was about to end, and everyone had come out of their houses. It was even scarier than that. The whole city had come to a standstill because of the crazy number of people occupying all the roads and places.Voices, echoes, and screams were flying around. But one thing each of the people on the street shared was the urge to move forward."Has the wedding started?" A random person asked. "I'm not sure. The Peak is not floating yet. As soon as it starts floating, I'm sure that'd be a sign?"Two strangers were explaining to others who were surrounding them. "Get out of my way!" A lad sent a flying punch into the face of the last person to speak.Before the victim could react, the lad had run forward, pushing his way t

    "It's you. It's really you." Laura repeated the words in an attempt to be emphatic. She had done it also to convince herself that she was in her right mind and was not seeing things. Achiel remained where he was standing as though he could not move. "How... How did you find me?" That was the tenth time that she had asked that same question. When she had received a message from godofcos claiming that he was outside her house. She had come running outside. Getting to the door of her apartment, she had seen Achiel standing there. The man from the store!!!She had been trying to engage him in a conversation, but the man had been staring at her all along. Standing there like a statue. But then suddenly, he replied her abruptly. Ever since then, he had gone mute again. She was really confused and didn't know what to make of this situation that she had earned herself. Achiel was trying to make things less weird between the both of them. If he went fully into talking to her, she might

    Achiel was still standing where he was, staring at his phone. But the noise coming from distance was getting louder, and he couldn't ignore it any longer. He looked away from the phone, from the chat scene, in the direction of the noise. The group of high school students were still there. He wasn't ready to be concerned with who they were. Instead, what they were doing was something that he couldn't ignore. There was a lad who had been forced to be on his knees, while a group of bigger boys hit him repeatedly. Achiel had seen this at first but brushed it off because he was trying to gift Lauretta. Although, earlier, things were not alarming amongst the group compared to now. He started to walk towards the scene. In a matter of time, he was already close to the group. "Are you still going to keep talking?" One of the three big boys said to the victim, hitting him on the back of his head. "You will report to the principal again, won't you?" Another guy slapped the victim across t
