I stared at the middle-aged woman lying helplessly in the glass room before me. Several tubes were attached to her nose, mouth, and chest to keep her alive.I couldn't get close to Julia, as she was still in intensive care after the operation. I turned to Michele, who was sobbing as she looked at her helpless mother."Actually, she's not my real mum."I, who was about to turn back to the front, finally turned back to her. She was wiping away tears with a handkerchief."She saved my life when I was six. My stepfather tried to kill me, and they came to my rescue, Johan and Julia. Ah... it's a long story, I'll tell you sometime." Michele took a deep breath and said it again. "Johan was her late husband's name. Johan was a good man, but before he died, he was addicted to gambling, and in the end, he left behind a lot of debt. That's why I couldn't leave her, even though it was too hard.I began to understand Michele's story and why this girl could bear all her father's debts. It was becau
I tried to observe what happened to Neona, but there was no result.[OBSERVATION FAILED!][OBSERVATION FAILED!]This message was displayed after I tried to observe Neona several times. Normally there would be a message about the illness, but this time I couldn't do it, and it frustrated me."Mr. Durand, are you all right?" Mr. Lopez's voice woke me. I turned to him, my breathing ragged. What the hell is going on? Why does my energy seem to be drained?"I'm fine." I shook my head as I tried to catch my breath. I looked around. There seemed to be something wrong with this place. If I stay too long, I'll lose all my energy.Once I had calmed down a bit, I got up and went straight to Mr. Lopez. "I have to go, sir." Mr. Lopez gave me a confused look. He seemed reluctant to let me go home. Even when I turned and walked away, he immediately followed me."Mr. Durand. What's the matter with you? Why do you suddenly want to go home?" Mr. Lopez intercepted my steps, and it was obvious that he di
Jovian crept through the darkness. He used the power of his eyes to see. Fortunately, there were no stars tonight, so the atmosphere was even more favourable.Although there were many CCTV cameras, Jovian did not need to hide at all, as the CCTV cameras could not detect his presence. But he still had to be alert for the guards, who might appear from any direction.Jovian ran immediately in the direction behind the large tree when he heard the sound of people talking. He strained his ears to hear what they were saying."Until when will they make these monsters?""Until the day of execution comes. We will use them as troops."Jovian frowned at their conversation. "Day of execution? What do they mean by that?" he wondered. He opened his ears even wider, but their voices grew farther away, as did their footsteps."Shit! I can't hear their voices anymore."Jovian came out of hiding. He paced around before finally walking again at a brisk pace. When he saw a lone guard, he approached him si
Leon continued to look at Eren's laptop screen, which showed everything the Jovian saw through his glasses. His eyes kept falling on the man speaking on stage."I think I recognise his posture," he said, causing Eren to turn his head."Do you know that guy?" Leon gave Eren a quick glance, and his attention returned to the laptop screen. He shook his head doubtfully."I'm not sure."Leon knew that there wasn't just one person with that kind of posture, but somehow he suspected this person."Before the day of execution comes, we will create as many monsters as possible as fuel."Jovian was truly shocked when he heard what the masked man said. It turned out that they were indeed planning something big. After a while, the event was over, and Jovian went back to look for the whereabouts of the infected people.Jovian kept walking, his eyes looking left and right. When he saw doors, Jovian tried to open them one by one. But of the several doors he could open, only one was currently in front
I got out of the car and walked a few steps. Then I stomped the bottom of the stick on the ground. I began to concentrate on creating a mini golem army.A small golem appeared in front of me. Followed by several more small golems, until there were more than 20 of them. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of mini-golems had formed in front of me.They were still silent, waiting for my command. After creating about 100 golems, I stopped, and with a single command, they all advanced towards the building.Gunshots rang out as the golems approached the gate. But the shots had no effect on them. The bullets couldn't even make my golems fall. They kept moving towards the gate.When they realised that their shots couldn't bring the golems down, they retreated. They went back inside and started to close the gate tightly. But that didn't stop the golems. They continued to advance, and even when they reached the gate, they continued to punch and kick it.Although the gate looked sturdy and strong,
"Eren, are you still unable to telepath with Jovian?"Eren shook his head with a sad face. "I can't even feel his energy.""What?" I could not hide my surprise. "Is that possible?" I swallowed hard, unable to continue. If Jovian's energy could no longer be felt, he was most likely dead."Impudent...!" I shot out a wave of twisting flames. Although my relationship with Jovian had not been good at first, we had become closer recently. He was hard and sometimes annoying. But he has a good heart.After the fire wave I fired, the whole room turned into a sea of flames. I don't care if people are being killed right now. They were not ordinary people living normal lives, they were people working with a group of hunters who had evil plans."Leon!" I felt someone tap me on the shoulder. When I turned my head, Eren shook his head firmly. "Do not continue. The system will punish you if you kill a human.""I don't care, Eren! They are not good people, they even kidnapped other people just to turn
The situation was truly chaotic. I was simply speechless, while Eren and Kasto were both busy fending off all the incoming attacks. Although they had no magic skills, their other skills were higher than mine. Even their weapon levels were higher than mine.Their movements were so fast. They took turns protecting me from different directions. After taking a long breath, I tightened my grip on the wand in my hand. I scanned the area for the source of the attack."Gotcha!" I saw a figure standing a good distance away from us. And I realised that it was the Bog Boss who had been captured on Jovian's eyeglass camera. The suit he was wearing and the mask covering his face were exactly the same as the man on stage."Clash of light!" I immediately pointed my wand at the man. From the tip of the wand, a line of light appeared, like electricity, extending to the person I had targeted. But just as the light was about to reach the man, he waved his hand and instantly my attack went mental and hit
I tried to control my ragged breathing. I'm not sure what happened before that, I just know that I woke up on my knees with my hands tied.The moment I opened my eyes, I was immediately whipped several times on my back. The stinging was immediate and continued immediately afterwards. Even my body, which normally reacts immediately to any injury, did not react at all. My body was in a normal human state.I don't see anyone other than myself in this place. I couldn't even see the person whipping me because my head couldn't turn."Argh...!" I screamed again as the whip hit my back for the umpteenth time. They continued to do this to me, as if they were not going to let me breathe.I don't know what state my back is in right now, it must be full of cuts and blood. There was a moment of relief when they stopped beating me. But it didn't last long, because then they did something that made my pain worse. I don't know what they poured on my back, but it felt so burning and hot."ENOUGH! STOP
