“I know that much… I like her but I am afraid to love her this much. It will just hurt her… yet…” hand covering his face, Ashton chuckled to himself. But even that laugh feels so sad. “Let’s go” Miguel mumbled reaching his hand to his brother. “What? Have you turned deaf? Brother? I am saying, let’s go and you fix that fuckin problem of yours. You hear me?” “Stop it, Miguel, we can do nothing about that” “Damn hell? Nothing will change if you cry yourself like a baby! I am not helping you. Don’t think highly of yourself! I just don’t like the thoughts that Sister Iesha was hurt because of the genius yet idiot brother of mine” Not meeting the gaze of Ashton, Miguel caught a glimpse of Clark that was standing not far from where he is. “Clark you too, you are gonna help him. Right?” “Me? But-” “Great! Now let’s go!” As enthusiastic as he is, the two did not even notice that they are dragged by the youngest of the Montediore. It is not that they hate the concept but what surprise
“I heard Ashton and Miguel visit the Laurent” Sipping a glass of wine, Margarett smiles at her husband as he stands in front of the bookshelves. Looking for a book as he let his eyes wander. “Yes, I heard about that” “Things are going just as what you wanted, are you glad?” Chuckling to herself, Margarett let out a playful giggle. “More than that. With this, Laurent will be connected to us. I don’t know what takes it so long for this to happen but…” Standing out to reach Anton, he just let his wife pull him to her side. “Anton, tell me… I am doing great… right?” “Yes, you are… you are always doing great things Margarett… but… why involve the Laurent? They are not that friendly with your father, are they not?” Pushing him a bit, he was quick enough to not let her escape. “Stop it, I don’t want a fight” “We are not fighting, have we ever fought?” “No…” Brushing her own hair, Margarett drinks the whole wine left in her glass. “My father’s enemy isn’t my enemy. If they can be
[Time Limit: 36:40:12] ‘I have been checking the system for some while now. But this quest that I received is quite strange. There was no other information given to me as such…’ Looking at the system as he gaze at the outside of the window, Clark did not even enjoy the sight for him to see as he was focused on his thoughts. A quest with no information given other than the name of the quest. Ever since he acquired that system he was aware that it was on a different level than the one he had in the future back then. It is not just that the coverage of that system was bigger but the abilities as well as the quest-related matter were not so similar to the one he was used to. ‘It never happened before. Since as much as possible, each quest would at least have that info where it would tell you what is needed to be done. But this time, It has no orders, no punishments, and even the time limit for this quest is unknown. Just what kind of quest is this? Really…’ Soon as he sees the sight o
All the goblins charged in his direction. Although he has quickly slain them right away, Clark still can’t believe in what was happening to him. [Exp +35] [Exp +35] “This… you got to be kidding me…” Eyes widened in realization, no matter how much he tried to throw some dart, it would always miss the target. It was also random, in fact. As if some sort of magnet surrounds his target, making it fail at all costs. [Time Limit: 36 : 15: 19] No matter what he tries to do, it is all the same. He really did lose his good throw. “There is no… fuckin way…” Looking at his status, [Status Rank: F] [System Rank: F] [Status Level: 16 out of 20] ‘Just as I thought, going in this dungeon is the best way to level up. I still have some time left…’ Spotting yet another monster, goblins, in fact, Clark charge his way and did not bother using his darts to throw. He gives up on the fact that he can no longer use that small skill of him. For all things have their payment. Those things are the
[System Request Status: Failed] [System Punishment: Proceeds] [System Restriction: Activated] [Time Left: 4 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds] [System Master Recovery: Status] [Impurities removal process: 29.47%] [Time Left: 1 day, 22 hours, 37 minutes, and 57 seconds] . . . “It’s been three days Henry. What should we do now?? This is driving me crazy! We finally got a son again but now he went missing?!” “Clark is not a child anymore, Claret. Calm down” Hands on her nape, she still can’t believe what happened. Clark would be away yes, but he always goes back home. “And also, I talked with Ashton and Miguel. The last time they were with him, they said Clark is in a hurry. Maybe he is just busy doing something” Biting her nails, Claret’s eyes widened “Wha what if, what if Clark was caught by a syndicate? What if someone wants him for a ransom?! Henry!” Holding both of her shoulders, Henry tried to calm down his wife. But still, even he does have his worries. “G
“I will surely pay you for what I eat. Sorry for so much bother”After finishing eating the food, Clark paid the bills.“Don’t bother, payment for the wipes”Laughing a little, Yin looks at Clark.“Ah, I want to ask. Do you know Marchen Vienno? “Surprised since Clark did not answer right away, she shyly chuckled.“Sorry, I thought you know him since he also wears the same uniform as you”“Is he your lover?”“I am not sure if I can call it that way”“Then ask him”Drinking the last water on his cup, he continued his words as Yin was surprised with his answer. “Yin, I am sorry but I don’t have contact with… Marchen”Nodding her head, she mumbled. “But maybe you see him before? He is tall, has a brown hair, kind… and”‘Why did I think of that kiddo staring at me back then? Is she referring to that guy? Maybe she asked my help thinking I am a friend of her lover… I know where he is. Shall I drop her there? But… it was dangerous in that place. Shall I bring that guy out then? But I don’t h
“Huh? That car…” Andrel mumbled as he look at the view in the back. “So you also noticed” Even Yin was curious and looked at what they were talking about. “Um… Geoff… what are you doing?” Holding some darts in his hand, it was those he haven’t used since he lost his good throw. Luckily he was able to use the things he had with him other than the soldier’s clothes itself. Since it was stinky as shit. “Nothing much…” A smirk then crept on his lips as he open the window. ‘I did lose my good throw. But does dropping count as a throw?’ Calculating the distance of their car and the one following them, they are catching up. Just as what Clark thought they would do. ‘There is it’ “Andrel, on our next turn, change lane and head to the right. We just have a short time to to brush them off” Nodding his head, Andrel had a smirk on his face. Yin on the other hand was left speechless in what was happening. ‘Will we be all right? It was because of me… if something happened to us… it is I
Clark POV Where did I go wrong? Is it how I was so certain that the out break would take time before it spread? Or the fact that I knew what will happen and yet I was slow in doing things? But no… it wasn’t my fault to begin with! Or is it? Who asks to be trapped in the trial for three days like that? and… what the hell is with this system restriction that I just woke up having? No… why am I even arguing like this. It happened… and there is nothing else to do to turn back time and change it. It is not as if the system would let me be… “Geoff… what should we do now?” If there is someone I should blame for what is happening right now is me. Since I didn’t prepare much for a situation like this. Since I didn’t think of things through… I should have known more than anyone else.. I should have known that but… “We need to stop those doctors from entering the dungeon. We must lessen the number of people infected” Shaking my head… is that the only thing I can do? “I will order them rig
