"How long do you still have here in this world?" Ajax inquired, raising an eyebrow. He was curious to know how long Hudson wanted to hide in the motel before Atticus could find him.Hearing that question, Hudson stood up from the edge of the bed as he remembered that he had set a timer on his phone earlier when he got into the magical world. He ambled over to the cabinet that was next to his bed and collected his cellphone. He looked at the timer and saw that he had only about 84 hours left, which is close to 3 days.Ajax was staring at him as he was wondering what Hudson was holding in his hand; he had never seen a cellphone before or even had any idea what a cellphone was. Hudson turned to look at Ajax. "I have only about three days left in this world," he said bluntly."Three days? Do you think that would be enough time for you to hide before Atticus finds you? And also, what is that small thing that is glowing white light out of it that you gazed at?" Ajax bombarded him with quest
"OK," Atticus mumbled as he folded the poster and gave it to one of the slaves behind him."Tell me, kid, what is your name?" Atticus asked with his eyebrows slightly raised."My name is Wavy," he answered."Alright Wavy, I need your help urgently. I know that you are just coming out of the academy and probably heading home, but I need you to go back into the academy and call the dean for me or tell him someone wants to have a word with him. Can you do that for me?" Atticus inquired calmly."Of course, sir, but who do I tell that the dean is looking for him?" Wavy asked, raising an eyebrow, as he didn’t know who Atticus was or why he wanted to see the dean."Tell the dean that Atticus, the lord of the 16th, wants to see him and that I have a proposal for him," Atticus responded swiftly."OK, give me a few minutes, and I will go and inform the dean," Wavy said as he turned around and went into the academy.This is great; since he didn’t know who Hudson was, at least the dean would know
This is it. I was able to convince the dean with my story; now I just have to get the information I need from this teacher that the dean talked about. It's a good thing my slaves have been trained not to speak until I ask them to; if not, it wouldn’t have gone smoothly with the dean. I have gone through a lot just to find Hudson; I hope this teacher that is coming to see us will have the information I need, Atticus thought.***Meanwhile, inside Ajax’s office, He was sitting on a stool behind a large desk when he heard a knock on his office door."Ajax, it’s me; are you in there?" Agatos asked from outside the office."Yes, sir, come in," Ajax answered. The dean opened the door and went in as he stood next to Ajax."There is a man out there that wants to speak with you; he wants to ask you about Hudson," Agatos said calmly. Ajax’s eyes opened wide. He wants to ask about Ajax, what? Who is it? I hope it is not Atticus that is looking for Hudson, Ajax wondered."What? About Hudson? Who
so anytime Hudson decides to come to the school, one of you should come back to the shop and tell me about his arrival. I don’t care how long it is going to take for Hudson to come, but you guys are going to carry out the task I asked," Atticus explained, staring at the slaves in front of him."Balthasar, you are going to come back to the shop with me as you are going to be needed there the most, plus Hudson might recognize your face once he sees you," Atticus said as he shifted his gaze to look at Balthasar."Yes, master, you are right," Balthasar replied."Alright, I think we should rest here for a while, and then we can head back to the shop," Atticus said softly.************Later in the evening, at the motel that Hudson was staying at,He was laying on his bed and staring at the ceiling, bored and tired of staying inside the motel room all day.Is this how I am going to spend the rest of my two days in this motel room? There is nothing fun to do here; I should have brought some
****Hudson was walking down the street with his face covered; he could only see through a small opening. He looked for a dark, empty corner when, finally, he saw one at his left-hand side. He rushed into the corner and waited for the transmission. Suddenly a white glass window opened in front of him. He then removed the towel he had tied around his face and went into the window. He then saw that he was in a dark alley in the modern world.He felt a huge relief as he saw that he was now in the modern world. I am glad I am back home; I know Atticus is still looking for me, but for now, I need to enjoy my escape, he thought as he walked out of the alley.****Hudson arrived in front of their apartment door. He knocked on the door, and suddenly his mom opened the door. As soon as she saw him, a bright smile curled across her lips as she hugged him tightly."I am glad you are back home; I have missed you a lot," she said as they broke the hug and went into the house.Hudson removed the he
[Reward: 400 gold coins][You will be transported into the magical world in the next 144 hours] After that, the screen disappeared.Hudson’s eyes were wide open as he read everything that was on the white screen in front of him. He never thought that the system would issue the fourth mission so soon since he just came back from the magic world."Oh my gosh, my fourth mission; this means that I am going to be transported back into the magical world in the next 6 days, and I will have to face Atticus then no matter what. I will have to start preparing, and I will also buy items that I would have to sell in the magical world after the whole mission is over," Hudson mumbled to himself as he switched off the television and stood up from the couch.He arrived inside his bedroom as he picked up the backpack that was on the shelf next to his bed. He sat down behind his desktop computer as he dropped the bag on the ground next to him. He started pondering ways he was going to protect himself a
"Select the one that feels right to you," the man said with a weird smile. Hudson looked at all the guns, but the 9-millimeter pistol that was among the guns caught his attention, so he picked that one up."I want this one," he said as he showed the pistol to the man."Great choice; I will pack it up, and you can go and commence with the registration process later," the man replied as he collected the gun from his hand.This is one problem down; I now have the gun that I can use for my protection against Atticus when I am in the magical world, he thought.**********Four days later,Hudson and his mom were sitting opposite each other on the couches in the living room. Hudson’s backpack was on the floor next to his leg."Today is the day that you are going to be transported into the magical world for your fourth mission, right?" Tricia inquired, raising an eyebrow."Yes, mom, I’m waiting for the system to give me the countdown limit until I’m going to be transported into the magical wo
"Of course I would come back; you said it yourself; I can’t run from Atticus as far as I was still going to come back into the magical world, so I was eventually going to come back, plus I have a mission that I would like you to help me with," Hudson explained calmly.They both sat down behind the huge table that was in the middle of the office as they faced each other."Tell me, what is your mission this time?" Ajax inquired with his eyebrow slightly raised.Hudson started explaining to him how the system wanted him to sell five daggers to five level 10 magicians.After a couple of minutes, "I don’t think that is going to be very hard; we have a couple of level 10 magicians here in the academy; you would just have to convince them to buy it," Ajax said calmly, staring at Hudson."How do I go about that, and do you think it is going to be easy to get them to buy the daggers from me?" Hudson inquired. From the way Ajax was looking at him, he was getting the idea that Ajax doesn’t know
Ajax picked up the pen and dipped into the ink as he started composing the letter “Julius I caught a couple of your men in my territory they killed hundreds of my men and now they are all dead including the head Hercules. With all this information, I would like for you to pick inside one of the two options that I’m giving you. One is either you get ready for war in the next three days as me and my men will be invading your city, two is either you come to my palace tomorrow with 3,000,0000 gold coins and 500 of your men that are going to be working under my kingdom. There are no negotiations, if I don’t see you in my palace tomorrow, I’m going to assume that you picked war. Have a nice day,” Ajax ended the letter.After that, he sealed it up and gave it to the guard that was standing in front of him.“Your job is to deliver that letter to King Julius, after you give the letter to him, get out of there and head back straight away,” Ajax instructed. After that, he dismissed the guard.Hu
“Sounds perfect,” Ajax muttered.“Now I want you all to move back from the prisoners,” Ajax said in a rumbling tone as he stood up. Telling them to move back didn’t entail that they should leave the room. So, they understood his orders perfectly.Ajax came down from his throne and walked toward the men who were kneeling on the floor including Hercules.“Now, I can tell that you lots are not from this city, hence why none of you know magic and couldn’t even dress accordingly like a true Magnitoz citizen. That must mean that you all are from Human Valley, so, I would like for you all to help me understand who sent you here and why did you target my guards,” Ajax said in a rumbling tone as his voice echoed throughout the room.All the men were quiet, they were now four in number including Hercules. “Are none of you going to speak!” Ajax screamed with his eyebrows tightly pressed together. Hudson and the guards that were in the room were all quiet. They could sense how angry Ajax was.Aja
‘Oh my goodness, could it be Julius’s men behind these attacks? Does that mean that Julius is trying to start a war with me? I don’t think he would want to start a war though. I will have to give him the benefit of the doubt, if I catch one of those men tomorrow, I will interrogate him and get the information I want out of him. I will have to get to the bottom of all of this, Ajax thought.***Meanwhile, inside a large bush that was filled with a lot of men, they were the 50 trained men that Julius had deployed in Magnitoz city and their leader was a 35-year-old man named Hercules, he was about 7 feet tall and built with a lot of muscles. They had killed 23 of the men that Ajax sent to them and dumped their bodies in the river that was at the back of the bush. Hercules was told that two of the men escaped from them.“Listen up everyone!” Hercules screamed calling all their attention over to him.“Yes, commander!” They all answered in unison as they shifted their attention over to Herc
“You are right honey, this is what we are going to have to be doing now,” she replied with a smile. After that, Hudson told her goodbye as he ended the call. He sat down on the chair.***Later in the night,Hudson was lying on his bed; he was scrolling through his contact list as he saw Maddy’s contact and remembered that he hadn’t called her just like he promised her he would. Also, Hudson had an idea for a second date that he planned for when he got back from the magical world from his mission. He dialed her number and placed the phone on his ear. After a few rings, Maddy answered the call.“Hey Maddy, how are you doing?” He asked in a loving tone.“I’m doing fine and you?”“Fine, you know, I’m sorry I didn’t call you yesterday, I was occupied with a lot of things,” he said calmly.“Nah, don’t worry, it’s fine, I was also occupied with a lot of things,” she replied.“Cool, you know, I had a lot of fun time with you, and I have an idea for a second date, I don’t know if you would be
“I will do it, I will hang out with Maddy and go with the flow, I won’t think about secrets for now,” he said gazing into her eyes. Tricia let his head go as she stood up.“That’s good, just let everything flow for now,” she replied. She was happy that Hudson was going to lose up about the whole thing and let everything flow with Maddy.“I will be heading down to the dining table to set up dinner, I will call you when I’m done,” she said attempting to leave the room.“Okay Mom,” he muttered. After that, Tricia went out of the room.‘My mom must want me to get close to Maddy or even be dating her or she just wants to see me dating a woman or be happy, I don’t know which might be the case, but I am happy to oblige, I truly do like Maddy. I don’t know why I have never tried going on a date before, but I felt alive talking to Maddy today, and talking to a woman other than my mom is not that bad. I did feel a lot of sexual tension with her, even if I am still a virgin’ Hudson thought.As h
"Yes, I have been in love three times before and in three relationships overall. My last relationship ended five months ago; he was very toxic and abusive. It took a lot for me to get out of the relationship because I loved him a lot, but after I gathered the courage to leave him, since then I haven’t been able to get back into the dating pool as I had poured all my efforts and myself into my work. But I will say this: I am attracted to and interested in getting to know you," she stated calmly, staring into Hudson’s eyes.Hudson smiled upon hearing the last words she said. ‘I wish it were that easy for me to let her into my life; I wish it were that easy, but I am not sure she would be able to handle the truths that come with being in my life, and I am sure if she got to know the type of person I am, she wouldn’t want to stay or even believe what I actually do for a living’ Hudson thought."I am equally attracted to you and interested," he replied. ‘It’s not bad after all; I am glad m
***Hudson arrived in front of a fancy restaurant that had bright fancy lights all over the place. As he entered the restaurant, the sound of classic music hit him, and that was when he realized that the restaurant was not a regular restaurant. Hudson looked around and saw multiple people occupying the tables in the restaurant. He looked around to see if he could spot the description of the lady that his mom gave him and a lady that was sitting alone. Hudson spotted a table where a blonde woman was sitting alone, and from the way she was sitting, he could tell that she was short. "That’s definitely her," he mumbled as he ambled over to the table."Good afternoon, are you Maddy?" He asked with a smile. She raised her head to look at him as she realized that it was Hudson; she had seen photos of him that Tricia had sent to her prior to the date."Yes, I am. Have a seat. It’s nice to finally meet you, Hudson," Maddy said with a bright smile. She was wearing a red dress with bright crysta
"For this particular job, I will get it done for 20,000 dollars," Joshua responded."Sounds good. When do you think you are going to get it done?" Hudson inquired. Joshua assured him that he was going to get it done within three days. After that Hudson escorted him out of the house as Joshua carried the bags of gold coins with him."I look forward to doing a lifetime of business with you," Hudson said in a rumbling tone. As Joshua was heading towards the gate."Me too, sir!" Joshua replied.***Later in the afternoon, Hudson was getting ready in front of the large mirror that was inside his closet. He wanted to head over to the mall and get the items for his shop in the magic world."Hudson, where are you?" Tricia called out to him. Hudson was shocked to hear his mom’s voice; he didn’t think that she would be home at this time of the day."I’m in here, mom!" Hudson answered as he swiftly closed the button of the blue shirt that he was wearing.As he was about to come out of the closet
"Yeah, you are right; do you know any goldsmith?" Hudson asked, hoping that she would know a goldsmith.Tricia told him that she doesn’t know any, but that Hudson could look for one himself and that Goldsmith is everywhere online. After that, they both agreed that Hudson would look for a goldsmith himself, negotiate everything with the person, and then keep in touch with the goldsmith."It is settled then; you are going to work on getting a goldsmith," Tricia said, staring at Hudson. She noticed a sad look on Hudson’s face. ‘I don’t think Hudson is himself at all; he looks down. I think I should do something nice for him, something that would lift his spirit’ she thought."Yeah, I will start doing the research tonight," he replied. Tricia stood up from the couch."I should get going back to the restaurant; I need to get a few things done. We will catch up in the night when I’m back," she said with a smirk. Hudson stood up as he hugged her, and after that, Tricia went out of the house.
