“Sir…”
The agents looked at their superior, seeking advice. The appearance of Bin was shocking, to say the least. His upper body was still exposed, the skin blackened and the gaping hole revealing his ribs made even the strong-willed shudder.
The man who shouted at Bin, named Burne Gerrard, frowned and stared at the youth surrendering youth. Before he ordered the agents to make a move, he first probed the youth and discovered a considerable amount of Mana, a dangerously threatening quantity that further intensified his alertness.
“Officer, sir, I’m surrendering. Look, my hands are raised and I’m fatally injured.”
“You were sightseeing like this? You expected me to bel
“We’re not here to discuss how the Bureau operates. You’re an accomplice, possibly an ally, of a fugitive, someone fleeing from the law after committing many a crime. It would be beneficial for you to speak the truth and be released as soon as possible. Would you not agree, Bin?” Jeremy eyed the snickering youth, frowning and making his tone more domineering and authoritative. “I know that you cannot be working for Regina. Your recent actions prove that you want her dead as much as we, however, that doesn’t mean we condone everything you do. Be sensitive and cooperative.” “Sensitive? But I am sensitive, Officer, sir. I- being a law-abiding and peace-loving citizen - gave my full and detailed statement though I doubt it’ll be taken into account due to the prejudice you
Although Jasmine knew Bridget, she still felt suspicious of the girl. The bespectacled Ann, on the other hand, rushed to Bridget’s help. The young, slim, and short female doctor wasted no time in unnecessary discussions and immediately started patching up the unconscious girl. Ann was stopped by no one, Emilia lent her a hand while everyone else stood in the back, whispering to each other and sometimes glancing at the doctors. Bert Polars slumped on the couch and closed his eyes, yearning for a long nap. Sadly for him, neither Jasmine nor Julia spared him, the two bombarding him with questions, begrudging glares, and not-so-gentle nudges. “We should go rescue Bin!” Jasmine seemed unable to stay still, she wa
“Get him out of here this instant! Do you hear me?! I don’t care what you do, just get him out of there! I’ll come to M-nation today.” The usually calm Paulo Ricci could be heard yelling with a loud voice, fuming and grinding his teeth. Although Iris was only talking to him through a phone call, she could easily imagine his angered appearance, which she had seen only twice ever since she started working for him. She knew that he valued Bin but didn’t expect such an explosion reaction. Paulo was always calm, no matter what happens, thus his hearing his raging voice was a bit confusing for the sadistic woman. Iris didn’t delay, she assured him of Bin’s safety and immediately hung up. There’s no denying that she’s a very strong magic user,
Ann stood there, stupefied by Bin’s appearance and his sudden and unexpected arrival to her clinic. She knew that he would only come here as a last resort, and his body’s current state clearly warranted immediate medical care. Since he can’t go to a hospital, obviously, he had no choice but to come here.The thing is, however, that Ann was speechless and dumbstruck, standing motionless, in total disbelief. It took her a good whole minute to process what just happened, collect her thoughts, and rush toward the quietly sitting youth.“W-what happened? Why are you l...l-like this?”Her mouth was still wide open, so were her eyes. He removed an anti-magic armor that he stole from the Bureau and showed her the gaping hole in his chest, but, even if y
Fifteen hours prior to Bert’s arrival to Ann’s clinic. Bin, after his brief conversation with Jeremy, was treated quite brutally. As he promised, the old man, enraged by Bin’s mocking words, truly plucked his left eye with his bare hands.The eyeball looked disgusting, even to Bin. Burne Gerrard, who was holding onto Bin, cringed and shuddered, not daring to look at the disgusting organ for longer than a second. Even the agent tightly holding Bin’s head was shocked and horrified. He forgot to continue holding the youth’s head, his mouth was half-open and his eyes avoiding Jeremy and the eyeball.“This is what you get.”Jeremy Whitefront snickered, waving the eyeball in front of Bin before dropping it on the ground and raising h
For no less than seven days was the young Bin handcuffed to that immovable and unbreakable piece of wood connected with the staircase. Were it not for Beatrice, he surely would have starved.His wrist was clotted and stiff from all the futile resistance he tried. It took the boy countless - really countless- tries to break free using the pin that had been provided to him. Once free, he proceeded to shun Trewan but it didn’t last long.****“How am I supposed to do it with just one hand?”Bin found something akin to a pin in the back pockets of the dead assassin, however, he only had one arm- the left one- which was handcuffed to the cell’s thick bars. His right arm, the prosthetic one,
Bin stood up from Jeremy’s bloodied body, which was missing all its limbs and both eyes. He wiped the blood on the man’s clothes and looked to the back. He smelled dozens of agents heading his way so he created a devastating distraction. He didn’t waste a drop from the liquid he had drunk, pouring all in his Special Ability.An unstoppable sandstorm appeared- not just inside the building but also outside of it- creating panic amongst agents and civilians alike. With nothing more to do, Bin rushed below, avoiding the agents in the way.“Lower your weapons!” Shouted one agent, glaring at his subordinates.“But s-sir!”“Lower your damn weapons! I’ll take responsibil
Emilia’s car sped toward Ann’s private clinic, which was already in full view. The Head Scientist was on the wheel whereas Jasmine, Rika, and Melissa, were sitting on the back. Sitting on the passenger seat was Bert, who chose to come along to check on Bridget.When the car was about fifty meters away, to the shock of everyone in it, there was a blinding purple light followed by a violent and loud rumbling.Bert wasted no time, using his special ability, and formed a solid yellow-ish barrier around the vehicle, protecting it from an incoming shock wave. Emilia pressed the brakes, forcing the car into a sudden halt as the shock wave cracked Bert’s barrier and ravaged the surrounding trees.There was only one shock wave but when Emilia and co came to their se
Bin’s eyes fluttered then slowly opened. He felt weight on his thighs and chest and when he looked down, he saw Jasmine sound asleep. She had a habit of hugging him in the middle of sleep and half of her body would be pressed against his. It has been a year and a half since they started dating and the embarrassment of sleeping naked or half-naked was no more. Their relationship only got better and they even moved to a new place with Nina, though it wasn’t far from Emilia and Elise. He wasn’t interested in getting a proper job, nevertheless, he did find an entertaining habit, which was quickly developed. With Jasmine’s support and Bert’s countless acquaintances, Bin had opened a cozy small café in a relatively empty street. It wasn’t the best of locations, but he did not care. Bin was fo
Brule River Boreal Forest State, Russia. The forest, excluding wild beasts, was generally devoid of humans. However, today, it was the total opposite. The Russian Government dispatched its military and barricaded the huge region. Jets were flying through the air, trying to scout the ground and eliminate the legions of Pests stationed around the river and in-between the countless trees. However, the most eye-catching thing was the crimson crack hanging in the sky, its blood-red light outshining even the sun. Its mere presence brought for a foreboding and eerie atmosphere as well as a thick fog of the same color. Although well-equipped, the Russian Government did not act recklessly or rashly. They kne
“I won’t be away for long, okay?” “Promise?” Nina, looking a bit sad, lowered her head and tried not to cry. To appease her, Bin gave her a tight hug and repeatedly reassured her that everything will be alright. It has been ten days since his return to Earth and though no one forced him to act, he deemed now as the right time to get rid of the Rifts once and for all. Fortunately, there were no spotted Rifts in M-nation, therefore, Bin would soon have to leave for other countries. “Next time, I’ll bring you to fun places! I will bring gifts back with me, too!” Jasmine also hugged Nina and playfully pulled her c
“Sorry for the wait.”-Angelica “It’s fine.” Replied Bin as he sat back down next to Jasmine and smiled at her parents. While they discussed things, he spent some time chatting with the servants and managed to clear things up with Hyue. It was a good decision to come here and mend past relationships now that he was moving on and turning a new leaf. Unlike earlier, Theodore looked calmer but he was still glaring at him. As for Angelica, her expression was never-changing and, as always, unreadable. “My husband and I are not against your relationship, Bin. I only ask that you take good care of her.” “It shall be done, Madam.” “It better do! If I hear
Bin and Jasmine walked for a while before they returned to the car.“I should be the one ‘walking you home’. Sadly, I don’t have a driver’s license.”Bin sighed and watched as she drove him back to the villa. The trip back home felt brief as they talked on the way, but when they reached their destination, the two were silent.“If you have nothing to do, let’s meet tomorrow.” Suggested Bin as he looked at the white-haired Silver Dragon.Of course, Jasmine agreed with a meek nod. As he was about to get off, she abruptly stretched her arm and grabbed his, thus making him halt his actions.“Jasmine?”
Late at night, after the family had dinner and everyone retreated to their rooms, Bin went downstairs and, as he had expected, found Emilia in the kitchen. She absent-mindedly looked at the dining table and not even his arrival was noticed. Only when he pulled a chair and sat right next to her did she twitch and look at him. “Mother, you’re still worried?” He faintly smiled and gently grasped her hands, which eased the frown on her face. “How can I not be when my son refuses to listen to reason? Everytime, I get to see you for a brief time and then you leave.” “
Barely half a day after he woke up, Bin was in perfect health. However, Ann insisted that stays for two additional days, to which he nodded in obedience. As expected, he received many visits from Bert and the rest. Elise and, especially, Emilia, came every couple of hours to check on him and bring food. “Umm… so, there’s a matter that warrants an explanation. But, I think it’s better to wait till you come home.” Elise, fidgeting, peeled an orange while uttering those vague words. “It would have been better if you stayed silent.” “I was just warning you. At least, that way, you won’t be as surprised. Just brace yourself… okay?” Life as A Servant
When Bin finally regained his consciousness and opened his eyes, he found himself in an overly-extravagant and spacious hospital room. He took a couple of seconds to look around before slowly sitting up.He wasn’t particularly injured and the overwhelming exhaustion he was subjected to prior and after opening the portal was completely gone, fortunately.“Bin.”Somewhat softly called out to him, thus did his gaze jump to the source of the voice. He was facing Elise, Emilia, and, unexpectedly, the now grown-up Ryne. The three were sitting on a wide leather sofa and chatting quietly only to be startled by his sudden awakening.His mother ran to his side and supported him, fearing that he was experiencing pain. Life as A Servant
“Hurry up, Bin!” Although she was fending off the horde of Pests, Jasmine could not fight forever. She remained close to Bin and continuously swung her sword at any incoming enemies. At the same time, Bin was strengthening his connection with the white crystal. Slowly but surely, a gentle wave of white light flowed from within his body and started taking the shape of a human-sized portal. Unfortunately, Jasmine was reaching her limits and ended up getting blasted far away. Her body crashed on the ground and rolled a couple of times. Although she hastily got back on her feet and ran back, it wasn’t fast enough to stop the Pests from reaching Bin. With all his concentration focused on the connection, Bin could not defend himChapter 495 : Reunion
