"Young Master. Why are you on your knees? What are you doing? I'd be damned. My life has come to ruins. I should die!"Leroy was so sensitive and so scared. He had never seen his young Master bow to anyone, let alone be on his knees. "Please, get up on your feet, Young Master. Please."Even though Leroy was very worried and concerned, he dared not touch Damien. Though he was kneeling right at his front, all he could do was beg Damien to get up. "I'm not sure if I can do that, Leroy. The punisher should release the punished. Is that not so?"Damien said, looking quite unbothered. "The punisher? The punished?"Leroy muttered, realising what Damien meant. He slowly got up on his feet and turned towards the manager. "Jared..."He muttered the name of the manager. The manager also seemed to be understanding what was happening, though he was still having a hard time adjusting to the scene. He had just watched Leroy, the most feared man in the whole of Vegas. Leroy had just bowed to a m
"I don't know why you are doing this, but I don't feel quite comfortably in these."Damien argued, looking at the tailored tuxedo, which Leroy had forcefully let him wear. A part of time was already buried in the simplicity of events, even though he knew that some events should be taken seriously. "You don't have to be comfortable, Young Master. The lady you are meeting with, is she worth it or not?"Leroy asked the question with such a weird expression that Damien had a hard time making a meaning of the intention behind. "That sounds weird. Why do you want to know?""If she is worth it, discomfort won't stop you from looking good for her. I have been there too, Young Master, believe me."When Damien understood what the man meant, he scoffed. "Is that all? Can I leave?"Leroy stepped away from him at the question. He inspected Damien's dress closely. Then he snapped his fingers. "You need a wristwatch."Leroy walked to the counter and got the wristwatch. Everything that Leroy did
"Oh, it is you!"Damien said, getting excited all of a sudden. Not only was Mara surprised, but Jada too. Jada was so surprised that she couldn't even blink her eyes for a long time. "I never believed it when I heard it the first time. I heard that Mara's mother is one of the BMX girls! I could never have imagined talking to one of them right now! I'm a big fan of the BMX girls! Especially you, Miss Jada. You are so beautiful even without makeups on. Now I really know from whom Mara took the beauty."Damien stopped talking. Jada was so flustered that she couldn't make words. She had just found out that Damien was the KV that her daughter had been talking about and singing his praises. The man who had given her daughter 5 billion dollars in the blink of an eye. And while she was trying to process that, Damien was pulling another stunt with her. Of course, she was not a dullard. She was quite smart and understood what Damien was trying to do. "Oh wow, you are KV?"Jada decided to pl
Damien was in shock when he saw Jada stomping towards them. Of course, he knew that Jada didn't love the fact that he was with her daughter, but he could never have thought that she would suddenly show up at the building! How scary these BMX girls could really be. Behind Jada, a receptionist ran in. "Ma'am, you can't be here. I don't want to get in trouble because of you! Please come with me right now."It was the receptionist who had attended to Damien at his arrival. It seemed as though Jada had broken her way in. "If you don't do as told, I guess I have no choice but to call the security on you. I have no idea how else you want me to explain to you that your membership has been cancelled."Damien listened attentively to what the receptionist was saying. Mara was also quite surprised to hear that. "You should go. I invited her. I should have told you before now. Forgive me for not being direct in the first place."Damien lied to the receptionist. He had to give a good impression
The flaps of giant wings preceeded the wave of wild wind, which swept across Huthi Farmland. The dragon descended at the front of the two bamboo stalks which served as the portal to the parallel world. "What the hell?"Alves was reluctant to climb down from the back of the dragon. It had been clouds and clouds when they travelled from the place where they left the Supreme Majesty. To suddenly find himself back at Grimming Hills was something he could never have anticipated. "Why did I find myself here? Why didn't I return to the Kingdom? What happened? Is this the doings of the Supreme Majesty?"The dragon pushed its head forward till it touched touched the earth. Alves climbed down from its back. "Did I really fly from like two worlds to Huthi under an hour?"He heard the wings of the dragon flap. The Supreme Majesty had told him that the dragon was his spiritual pet. He still didn't know what that really meant. The dragon lifted itself from the earth, and off it flew, ascending
Rustle. Damien stopped walking. He turned and looked down the path. Then, to his left and right, which were shrouded by thick shrubs. There was nothing in sight, and he couldn't say for sure if there was something in hide. There was no sign except for the sound that had come earlier. "Maybe it's in my head."He dismissed the thought and kept on walking. Rustle. It came from his right. Then left. Then he heard a heavy thud behind him. He pushed a lump down his throat. The weight of what landed behind him was quite heavy and impactful. He was a little nervous to see what it could be. While he was trying to turn, he heard a snarl and a deep growl. He spun around to see a hideous creature. He staggered to the back in fear. He didn't know what name to call this creature. He couldn't even start to make an attempt to describe. The humanoid creature had so many features that denied it of being called a particular creature. It had the tail of a dragon, scales all over its body, beak of
[Ping! Host's full essence would occasionally be transmigrated into the dream world.][Ping! Host's expected to stay alive on these random occasions.][Ping! Since the host has lost his contact with the realm, this measure keeps his life on the line.][Ping! Host cannot escape these events.][Ping! Dream tasks will cease when Host finds his way back to the realm.][Ping! Host cannot hide.]Damien watched with mouth agape as the notifications popped up right in front of him, shuffling and dropping. He was speechless for a while. He just stared at the screen right in front of him. He shut his eyes and sighed."This must be her. She is trying to get back at me. It was quite strange that she kept quiet for this long. She had decided to endanger my life because I destroyed the link to the realm?"He scoffed. He wasn't scared. He had gone through things that were scarier than that. "That form I took in the dream. I remember. That was what I changed into before I was taken to the realm. Tw
"If we are able to pull this off, the handover party tomorrow would be nothing to worry about."Elisa started. "And these stupid things that have been happening lately will finally come to a stop."Evelyn came on. Elisa took a sharp glance at her,"Are you talking about the membership thing?"Elisa nodded,"I have no idea who did this to us. How could such a person humiliate us in the public?!!""We can't even visit Boldyville anymore. You are the only one who can visit there, Elisa. Because you work there.""Don't make it sound like that. It's not as if I'm enjoying the sadness."Elisa tried to defend herself. "We are almost an hour away from the meeting time with the trillionaire guy. We should be on the way."Evelyn announced, and Elisa nodded. Elisa looked at Jada, who had been quiet all along. "Why are you saying nothing, Jada? Is something wrong? What are you hiding?"Elisa asked, walking to meet her. Evelyn joined, too. "We should not go to him."Evelyn said. "Huh?""What
