Romeo drew the gleaming sword out of the sheath and he looked at it with a bright smile.This is awesome; he did come with the sword. With these swords, I am going to make my late father and my family name proud, he thought.He kept the sword back in the sheath as he dropped it on the desk in front of Hudson.He folded his arms as he waited for Ajax to arrive.***Ajax entered the shop with about eight other of Romeo's slaves that accompanied him. Romeo made an arrangement that they should both sit down in front of him.Hudson and Ajax were sitting on the chairs in front of the large desk at the end of the shop, while Romeo was sitting in front of them."I think it’s time you kept your promise since Hudson has brought the swords for you," Ajax said bluntly."Of course, I will keep my promise; I am a man of my word," Romeo replied as he came out from behind the desk and ambled over to where they were sitting.He gazed down at Ajax, and as he started waving hand signs and saying enchant
"I understand everything that you explained, but was killing the slaves the right decision?" Hudson asked, staring into Ajax's eyes. Hudson was now calmer about the whole situation."Of course, they were all loyal to Romeo; if we had given them the chance, they would have killed the both of us or ran away and gone and got more slaves from Romeo’s mansion to come and attack us. So, killing them was also the right option," Ajax explained. He was still holding the iron rod in his left hand.Hudson agreed with everything that Ajax explained. "What about the other slaves in Romeo’s mansion? Don’t you think that they would also try to come look for Romeo? Now that he is dead, he won’t return to his house, which will alert his slaves that something bad must have happened to him, and they will all know that Romeo came here to collect the swords. What if they plan on hunting us down after finding out everything?" Hudson bombarded Ajax with his theories about the aftermath of the decision that
Hudson waited for the men to come closer to him before he brought out his sword. As they got closer to him. Hudson dragged his sword out of the sheath, dashed over to them, and started swinging his sword. Hudson sliced off the arm of one of the men as he turned to stab the second guy with the sword. After that, he also stabbed the one he had cut off his arm. They both fell to the ground, dead.Hudson staggered backward, breathing heavily, as he looked at his sword and saw the blood stains of the men on it. I can’t believe I did it; I never thought I would have to kill someone again. This is all messed up, but I guess it’s for the greater good, he thought.Hudson turned as he ambled over to where Ajax was sitting on the ground. "How are you holding up?" Hudson asked as he offered him a hand.Ajax grabbed his hand as he stood up from the ground. "Fine, I think our work here is done," Ajax answered as he gazed at the house. The house was burning with intense flames, and they could hear s
I can’t tell him about anything that has happened; he doesn’t need to know what I have been going through. I will have to cover everything up; no one needs to know what Ajax and I have battled with Romeo and his slaves, Hudson thought."You don’t need to worry about those strange men; they were just some business colleagues that I had a few issues with, but everything is over now, and business is back to normal," Hudson answered boldly. With the way he answered Tim, he hoped that Tim wouldn’t try to bother him with more questions again."Alright boss, I have made a lot of sales, so I am short on products, and I also have a lot of gold coins staked up with me," Tim said with a smirk.Hudson first of all gave him about ten swords as he explained the usage and taught him how he was going to market and also sell them. After that, Hudson promised him that he was going to bring more products within a week or two. Hudson collected two large bags from him that were filled with roughly 50,000
"Hold on, don’t panic!" Ajax yelled as he removed his right hand from the handle of the bridge. Ajax started making enchantments as he aimed his finger at the spot that had a big hole.Hudson, once I count to three, raise your legs!" Ajax yelled. "Okay," Hudson muttered. Hudson felt a rush of adrenaline and fear flowing all over his body. His life flashed before him, and he couldn’t believe that he was about to fall through the bridge.Ajax counted down to three, and Hudson swiftly raised his legs. Ajax screamed a magic enchantment at the hole as the hole covered itself up. It was as if there was no hole there in the first place."You can now drop your legs," Ajax said as he let out a long sigh of relief.Hudson dropped his legs on the bridge. As he let out a sigh of relief. "I almost died just now," Hudson muttered."No, you wouldn’t have; that’s why I am here with you," Ajax replied."But it seems to me like you have cast similar spells in the past; it didn’t seem like a new spell t
***After going to various farmers, Hudson and Ajax were able to sell two geese and now have only one with them. They found the last one hard to sell, as about three farmers rejected buying it. Hudson and Ajax didn’t give up hope. They arrived in front of a large farm that had a huge sign board on the front gate reading "Grimmer Farm.""Let’s approach the farmer here and see if he or she would be interested in buying them," Ajax said.They approached the front gate and knocked on it. They waited for a few moments before a woman finally opened the gate. She was wearing a blue farmer's overall and a bamboo hat. She looked like she was in her early 40s and had blue eyes."We have a wild goose we would like to sell if you are interested in buying it," Ajax said with a warm smile."A wild goose? Can I see it?" The woman asked in an excited tone. From her reaction, anyone could guess that she might be interested in buying it.Hudson removed his backpack and took out the goose. He showed it
"Yes, and I know it might come as a shock to you. But I can explain," Hudson said, trying to calm Heineken down. He knew that talking about buying another shop would come as a shock to Heineken.Hudson started explaining to him that he was planning to expand his business across the city and that buying more shops was the right way for him to go as the products he sells are rare in the city. So, he wanted to expand as a way of growing his business and letting his product reach everywhere in the city within no time.Heineken leaned forward in his chair as he clasped his hands in front of him. "Woah, that sounds like a great plan; I love it. You are a very promising young man with a bright future," Heineken commended."Thank you, sir," Hudson replied with a bright smile.‘I am glad he understood everything and didn’t find it suspicious,’ Hudson thought."But I have one question: why are you buying the shops one at a time? Isn’t it safer if you just buy two at once or something like that?
I am curious to know who the person is that had the nerve to go up against you," Agatos said, trying to push further for an answer.I can’t tell him any of that; he cannot know at any cost. If he finds out that information, he will want to investigate Romeo, and then he will discover that Romeo is dead. When he finds out that Romeo is dead, it won’t be hard to trace it back to me. I can’t allow any of that to happen; no one can find out about Romeo, Ajax thought."I am sorry, sir, but I can’t tell you that; I can’t disclose that information; I have put everything behind me, and if I tell you, it will bring it up again. So please don’t ask me about it," Ajax replied.Alright, then, if you say so, I will respect your privacy," Agatos muttered as he leaned back into his chair.‘Looks like Ajax is set on not telling me anything about the person that put a seal on him; that person must be a real badass for going up against Ajax, and from Ajax's tone, I am sure he has handled the person, pr
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.
