The opening party of the Ozilla Empire Corporation proceeded without a hitch, and soon it was time for the clan heads and heirs to move on to the mini auction house. A lot of people complained saying what quality product will a greenhorn in the business world have that will gain their attention. Nevertheless they still followed behind the gold suit clothed man who was exuding a confident aura.Inside the mini auction house, the family heads and echelons stayed on one side inside separate rooms while the scions and heirs stayed on another side, also in separate rooms. Maximus had recruited a commoner who seemed to be talented in the art of persuasion. The auctioneer, a thin blond man who had a few freckles on his face, mounted the podium and gazed at the intimidating faces of everyone seated inside their various rooms. Maximus had also recruited several Tech ability users and light element users to not only provide the technology needed for security and bidding, but also to lighten the
Leaving the mini auction house, the guests proceeded to the music studio as many of them marveled at the top notch equipments they saw at the studio. Maximus and Esther had it all planned as they sought to milk all these rich cows dry.As the guests were observing the equipments, Esther went into an enclosed glass cubicle which was set specifically for musicians. She took the headset, connected the microphone and tapped on it to get everyone's attention, which it certainly did. The tech ability users responsible for handling equipments in the studio got everything ready in a flash, then a sweet melodic instrumental beat flowed out, it sounded soothing and inspiring, but what got the guests hooked was when Esther used her light ability and began to glow like an angel, then she opened her mouth and spewed out an awe inspiring song...“I will run, I will climb, I will soar...I'm undefeated ooh,Jumping out of my skin pull the chord.Yeah I believe it.The past is everything we were,But
Maximus had just received a boon in strength and he couldn't wait to check it out. He left Esther gaping at him while he hurried back to the suite. Laying down on a gold colored sofa, he summoned the system.“Show me my status window” Maximus said with excitement clearly shown on his face.«As you wish Host.»«Ding!Host: Maximus Akkris GayleRace: HumanStatus: All for oneStrength: 100Agility: 100Stamina: 100Perception: 100Skills: Knowledge of King Arthur; martial arts and weapons mastery (Lv3), Knowledge of Loki; deceitful charms (Lv4) copycat (Lv0), Knowledge of Lykoi; system coins Exchange (Lv1) Fortune appraisal (Lv2).

Maximus lay on his King-size bed as the event of the day flashed through his mind. After getting a new quest from the system, he had asked the system the amount of system coins needed to upgrade it to 2.0, the system's response was a bit disheartening. Ten thousand system coins were needed to upgrade it to 2.0 and Maximus had only 2,500 system coins.Sigh! If only there was a mission that would yield a bountiful amount of system coins, he would grab onto it without a second thought.Ring! The telephone beside the bed rang, who could it be at this hour of the night, Maximus groaned, got up and took the phone.“Hello?” Maximus spoke into the mouthpiece.“Hello Mister Gold, sorry to disturb your sleep but I have urgent news which I thought you would want to hear.” Esther's voice sounded from the receiver.“What news? What happened?” this time Maximus sprang up from the bed, the thought of his company being robbed or his employees being harassed came into his mind.“The young master of th
[PRESENT TIMELINE]Shawn walked to the wardrobe inside the bedroom and opened it.He could see clothes and other accessories of his parents inside the wardrobe and even some of his old clothes that were too small for him to wear now.Inside the Wardrobe, he also found what he was looking for. There was a pair of Dark Gloves placed inside the Wardrobe.The gloves belonged to his mother that she had specially made for herself so that she could go on with life without worrying about destroying everything she touched.These were special items that were made of one of the rarest materials in this world. It was something that could resist the powers of Decay.Unfortunately, it also couldn't resist it for infinity. It also decayed, but it was able to resist many times longer than the most resistant item.Shawn didn't even know how long he could keep the gloves for himself without destroying them. From what he believed, he should be able to get one year of use out of these gloves, but these w
A heavily guarded research facility existed in an unknown place.The facility was a government facility under the control of one of the highest-ranking generals in the government.At the moment, the guards of the facilities were running towards a newly arrived helicopter that was soon about to land on the helipad.The guards reached the unknown helicopter. Their weapons remained in their hands as they stood alert. Even though it was a military helicopter, this wasn't from the army. They needed to be alert.The green helicopter belonged to the APF, which soon landed on the helipad. The door of the helicopter slid open as a few men stepped out of the helicopter.A red-haired man was the one who seemed to be leading the small group.The Chief of security was amongst the guards. At the sight of the red-haired man, he stepped forward."Calim Naders, the chief of security. May I know who you are? " The Security head reached out his hand towards the red-haired man."Xander Blake, APF, " Xand
"In any case, his death or life doesn't concern APF. Why are you here for him?" Doctor Roach asked Xander, frowning deeply.Doctor Layman also chimed in, "Your APF should be involved with matters related to the Variants if I'm not wrong. Even though Shawn's parents were Variants, he hadn't awakened even after he turned 10. Even if he died, that shouldn't be your concern."Xander Blake glared at Doctor Layman. His single gaze was enough to intimate the white-robed man who had just spoken.Sweat appeared on his forehead as he lowered his gaze.Xander also shifted his gaze to look at Doctor Layman."It is our concern. Yes, we are only involved with Variants, but Shawn is also a Variant according to what we know. Not only did he not die, but he's also killing people instead, " Xander informed Doctor Roach."Impossible! " Doctor Roach smashed the table with a look of disbelief on his face as he stood up. "He can't be alive, and even if he is, he can't be a Variant! No one can awaken their
A black SUV stopped before Shawn's house. Inside the SUV, four men were sitting, including the one who was at the steering wheel.After the car stopped, the four stepped out of it.The man in the lead supported a black leather jacket that had a flaming symbol on the chest portion. His long blonde hair came down to his shoulder and matched his beautiful eyes which seemed slowly golden.The man was part of the Delta Squad, known as Zach Kaven. He wasn't a high-ranking member of the Delta Squad and was only a sorcerer who had a B-Rank elemental ability.Fortunately, the power was not weak at all despite being B-Rank. He was also able to control flames like Xander Blake, who was an S-Rank Pyromaniac.Even though he had similar powers to the Delta Squad leaders, their strength was completely different.While Xander was the strongest in the Delta Squad, Zach was much lower on the spectrum of strength. The strength and intensity of his flames couldn't be compared to Xander, who was able to b
