INFINITE SKILLS SYSTEM: DORIAN FLINT'S RISE TO AWESOMENESS. Chapter 42: "SIR YES SIR!"
*******************Mercury Skyscraper.Inside a lavishly furnished office-like room sat an old man. His eyes were sharp, his hair was slicked back, each and every movement he executed let those around him stand on edge like attendants at a high-risk event, yet anyone looking could see the tiredness in the man’s eyes.There was a weariness to his sharp gray eyes, something sapping the man of energy and which generally extended to his soul as well.The old fox of the Mercury Conglomerate was searching for someone, someone he had loved once but whom he had rejected at the start of their careers.Then his company had meant everything to him. His business had meant everything to him. His success had been the only thing he could think of.But years down the line he only wanted one thing back, one thing that had been waiting for him before but which he had turned down and which he would give anything for nowHis voice was still strong as he read the morning papers and asked, “Has he been lo
INFINITE SKILLS SYSTEM: DORIAN FLINT'S RISE TO AWESOMENESS. Chapter 43: "Is he even allowed to that?"
Dorian frowned as he stared at the time go by on his watch. The letter he opened wasn’t from his father. It had been from the police station.His father had sent him a warrant, or something that he didn’t really know the name to. The basis of it was that he would be arrested if he didn’t come back home. The old man had given him 24 hours to come back, crawling on his knees, or he would be thrown in jail for the rest of his life.“Is he even allowed to do that?”Dorian let out a depressed sigh as he nodded. “The neighborhood police are in his pockets. He can do anything he wants and no one will say a thing. I’m sure he has some cubicle he’s planning to put me in at the back of the house.I don’t know why he hates me so much.”Connor was on the phone with him and Dorian felt thankful for that. The fact that he had someone who could be with him during these times felt… soothing a bit. This was nothing compared to some of the things he knew his father could really do.“How come he’s neve

Connor dropped missed call upon missed call and Dorian chuckled because it was kind of good to know he had a friend that cared about his well-being now.He had called Connor so he could get a solution to his current problem but it seemed that solution had revealed itself, thanks to Connor anyway, and now that he wanted to carry out the solution that had been proffered, Connor wanted to blow up his phone with calls.Dorian chuckled and picked up his phone, pressing the accept button on the incoming call and bracing himself for Connor’s loud bellow, Connor asked “What the fuck dude?” Dorian simply grinned as he pulled on his only pair of boots, “I’ve found a solution.”Connor sounded skeptical as he replied, “You did?”Dorian nodded though he knew his friend wouldn’t be able to see the gesture as he was on the other end of the phone, “I did. I can’t tell you what it is though, you might get implicated or something like that, and this will only work if I can find the right person.”The
INFINITE SKILLS SYSTEM: DORIAN FLINT'S RISE TO AWESOMENESS. Chapter 45: "The Blacktips have declared war on us."
The sky was dark and the road was busy.People were walking to and fro and the city was bustling as always.Dorian walked beside ordinary people with his hands in his pocket as always. People looked at him and he looked back at them, they smiled at him and he smiled back.He had managed to do something about his clothes and he didn’t look as shoddy as he always looked. He looked like any normal young person on their way to have some drinks or just to take a stroll in the parks of the city.Strolls were popular among the inhabitants of the city, especially night strolls where they could watch the sky and the stars, and just engage in mundane and happy things.Dorian felt something sharp sting his heart because he didn’t think he’d ever had the chance to enjoy the normal life he once had.It wasn’t even a normal life, it was a miserable life, and right now he wasn’t enjoying a leisurely stroll, he was doing his best to ensure his cursed existence didn’t become even more cursed.~Have yo
INFINITE SKILLS SYSTEM: DORIAN FLINT'S RISE TO AWESOMENESS. Chapter 46: "A pendant like this?"
The rival gang was defeated seriously.Dorian chuckled to himself as he watched the report on the news.“Last night, small factions of the notorious neighborhood gang the Blacktips and Steelclaw engaged in a violent altercation.Passers-by fled in panic and the police were quickly alerted, yet even with that it still took some effort to stop. No one was hurt, although a number of the gang members are injured and are currently recovering while awaiting the verdict of the local judges on them.Citizens are advised to stay safe and be on high alert. The entire police force has been dispatched to every corner of the city to handle this threat.I’m Nadia Helio, and this is KYC NEWS. Have a good day.”Dorian looked at his door and counted how many hours it had been since the police had sent their little veiled threat for his father.It had been quite some time, more than 24 hours even, considering the fact that he had ignored the letter for the better part of a whole day and just learned of
INFINITE SKILLS SYSTEM: DORIAN FLINT'S RISE TO AWESOMENESS. Chapter 47: "Why would you ask that?"
“How did you..”Dorian found himself unable to finish his sentence because Connor threw the pendant at him briskly. He had to stop speaking and catch it, and when he had finally caught it he finished his statement.“How did you get this? I’ve… been looking everywhere for it.”Dorian found himself hesitant to tell Connor that he had found his apartment mugged because the place was already bad enough as it was. The building looked old and dilapidated, it was bad enough without Connor knowing,“Someone probably stole it from you.”Dorian felt his breath get stuck in his throat but he didn’t show any indication of it, he simply looked away to stare at something else as Connor continued, explaining almost patiently.“I visit these ... places where I can find rare things, and I found this there.It was being held by a man who said he wanted nothing to do with it now. He was acting pretty crazy when I met him.”Dorian stared at Connor while he went through all the explanations, all the whi

“And you said you had nothing to do with the blacktips feud.”Connor sounded cheeky and smug as Dorian approached him the next day and Dorian found himself frowning lightly as he responded,“I said I didn't.”“So I believe it’s a simple coincidence that you dyed your hair after I informed you of it.”The cold sweat running down Dorian’s back ran colder as he came to the realization of his actions. The system chortled in amusement and Dorian cursed under his breath.The Dye… had been a bad idea, but he had been slightly afraid when he settled on it and now that he had dyed his hair,Connor’s good natured chuckle snapped Dorian out of his reverie and Dorian felt a slight shock run through him as Connor slung an arm around Dorian’s neck.Connor’s voice was low and dangerous as he told Dorian,“Y’know i don’t care if you have some link to the Blacktips right? They recruit just about anyone lately, and when I say anyone, I mean anyone.Where we would have a problem though, is if you risk y
INFINITE SKILLS SYSTEM: DORIAN FLINT'S RISE TO AWESOMENESS. Chapter 49: "Mercury."
The man who had been trailing Dorian stepped into the bar and Dorian felt a mix of emotions go through him.This was someone who had managed to spook him in the matter of a single day. Even the blacktips hadn’t been able to do that, and as usual, the man didn’t speak to him, didn’t even approach him, he simply walked over to one of the stools in the bar and he took a seat, casually ordering a drink and flashing a glance in he and Connor’s direction.Dorian felt that glance send a chill down his spine.“He doesn’t look like someone who would stalk, Dorian.”Connor’s voice seemed to echo in Dorian’s mind as he heard it.Dorian took one swig of his drink as he rattled off his reply, “He was waiting at the entrance to my house when you left. I don’t think you might have seen him but you could have, he was there. He was also at the store when I went to purchase some hair dye. He was also waiting in my backyard when I went to burn the package for the hair dye.He was at the gate this morn
