***Ajax and Hudson stopped at a dark corner that had shops on both ends. They were both breathing heavily from the run. "That was crazy," Hudson said as he stood up."Yes, it was; I never thought we would end up in such a situation," Ajax replied as he raised his head to look at Hudson."I knew something was sketchy about that field," Hudson added. Ajax handed the two sets of swords that were tied together back to Hudson.He moved closer to Hudson and gazed into his eyes. "Tell me, I thought you stopped selling those guns here in this world; what happened?" Ajax asked bluntly."I stopped selling guns; I swear, I don’t know where they got the guns; I might have sold it to them back when I was selling guns, and they might not have used it since then, or their guns might not even have bullets at this point. I am telling you the truth," Hudson answered swiftly. He saw the little doubt in Ajax’s eyes, and he wanted to clear the doubt as fast as possible."That seems logical; alright then,
“100 gold coins, that’s a great price, the sword is worth it,” Romeo said with a smirk. He called in one of his slaves and told him to bring 100 gold coins so that he could pay. The slave went out of the living room and came back a few minutes later with a small black bag that contained the gold coins. He handed it over to Romeo did a half bow and went out of the living room.Romeo stood up and handed the bag containing the gold coins over to Hudson. Since Ajax explained that Hudson was the creator of the sword. He knew that he was the owner of the swords.He sat back down on the couch. “I have a curious question to ask,” Romeo said with his hands folded together.“Go ahead,” Ajax replied.“I would like to buy the second sword. I want it too, could I buy that one too?” Romeo asked raising an eyebrow.Woah, we can’t sell the last one to him, Hudson needs to sell that one to another person if he wants to pass his mission, but how am I going to tell Romeo that we can’t sell it to him wit
As they went into the shop, their mouths opened wide. The shop was huge on the inside, and there were lots of items hanging on the shelves that were in each corner of the shop."Woah," Hudson said in awe, still looking around the shop."Let’s go, Hudson; he’s over there," Ajax said, calling Hudson’s attention to him. They ambled over to the large counter that was located toward the end of the shop.Jefe Thomas was in his early 30s. He had red hair and deep blue eyes. He was sitting down behind the counter with his hands clasped in front of him.As soon as he noticed that Ajax was the one heading towards him, he stood up from behind the desk. "Teacher! Oh my!" He screamed with a lot of excitement in his tone.He and Ajax shook hands, and after that, he sat back down. "What are you doing here, sir? Are you looking to buy junk?" Jefe asked, raising a curious eyebrow."No, we are here to sell something to you," Ajax answered."What is it?" Jefe asked, raising an eyebrow. Jefe sells junk a
"Yeah, we have been out here for a while; I think we should go back to the house and let the master know what we have discovered," the second guy replied."You are right, let’s get going; it is getting very dark."************The following morning at Romeo’s house. Romeo was sitting down on one of the couches in his living room as the bright sun from outside illuminated his entire room. The two slaves he sent to spy on Hudson and Ajax had come back to give him feedback. They didn’t make it back to the house last night as they stopped on the way and camped out somewhere."So, what’s the good news? Were you guys able to get me the information I needed?" Romeo asked curiously, staring at the slaves that were standing in front of him.Yes, master, we found the house that the two men spent the night in. We are sure it was their house," One of the men answered confidently.An evil grin crept onto Romeo’s lips as he heard what he said. From how the guy said it, Romeo could tell they were su
The man told Hudson to go inside alone as he left him.Hudson opened the door and went into the office. He saw Heineken sitting behind the desk. He ambled over to where he was and sat down on one of the chairs in front of his desk.“You are Hudson, right?” Heineken asked trying to recall if he was correct. Heineken barely remember him but Hudson remember him perfectly.“Yes, I bought a shop from you a while back,” Hudson responded.“That’s right, so, how can I help you today?” Heineken asked as he leaned forward in his chair and clasped his hand on the desk.“I want to buy another shop,” Hudson answered bluntly.“What? Another shop? Are you the one that will use this shop too?” Heineken asked curiously. He was curious to know why Hudson would want to buy another shop after buying one not too long ago, it was rare for Heineken to see someone that would want to buy shops back-to-back in this manner.“Yes, I am planning on expanding, I want to sell the same products I sell in this new sh
“Exactly and we need to be very careful and stealthy when ambushing them, we don’t want to alert them of our presence and at the same time we need to capture them. I really need to get these swords from them, you all know how important it is to me and this family,” he explained as he stood up from the couch.“Yes master, we are going to do our absolutely best,” one of the slaves responded in a high-pitched tone.Romeo smiled mischievously hearing the reply. He was glad that they all understood him and are willing to do what he tells to them do. Yes he is their master, but he wants them to he also invested in things he ask them to do.“Let’s head out now, if Ajax wakes up before we get there, he is going to head over to the magical academy and we won’t be able to meet him at home,” Romeo said boldly.They all went out of the living room together after that.*******After walking for about 2 hours, Romeo and his slaves arrive in front of Ajax’s house.“Are you sure this is the house you
Ajax was breathing heavily; he didn’t answer. Romeo saw that Ajax was catching his breath, and at the same time, he didn’t look like he wanted to answer him.Romeo used his left hand to grab Ajax's face and gaze down into his eyes. "Tell me, where is Hudson, and where are the swords located?" He asked softly.Ajax was feeling a lot of pain, but he didn’t want to disclose where Hudson was; he still wanted to protect him. He could tell Romeo was not joking around about wanting more swords.Romeo, why are you doing all this? We go way back; you shouldn’t be doing this to me," Ajax said in a low tone; he could barely speak up."I already told you, this is nothing personal; those swords are very important to me. I don’t want to do any of this to you. Instead of all this happening, I would appreciate it if you just gave up Hudson’s location and let me know where I could get more swords. After that, I will let you go," Romeo explained politely as he let go of Ajax’s face.Hearing all that Ro
So all this is about him wanting to get more swords. I knew there was something off about the questions he asked the day we sold that sword to him. But it won’t be possible for him to get the swords he wants now; the only way I can get more swords is when I go back into the modern world. But with the look in his eye, I am not sure he is going to want to wait till then, Hudson thought."Look, we already told you that day. That was the last batch of swords we had, plus it takes a lot of time to make new ones; we don’t have any swords at the moment," Hudson explained calmly. He hoped that Romeo would understand."Are you serious? Are you telling me the truth right now?" Romeo questioned, when Hudson’s tone changed, he could sense that Hudson was telling the truth. But on the contrary, Hudson was telling lies."Yeah, that’s the truth, so if you want up to thirty swords, I can make them, but it will take up to two weeks," Hudson answered."So please let us go, and I promise that I am going
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.
