"Wh--what the hell...""What is happening?""Why are there so many of him?""How did this happen?""What is happening?"The whole group was beginning to fidget. They were scared out of their wits. Some of them were already pissing their pants. Some shaking and some holding unto their neighbours for support. The boss himself had sweat pooling in both temples. The lad who was next to him had mucus running from one nostrils to the other. He had a tough time picking up the phlegm. As much as Damien was enjoying the sight, yet he felt a little dissatisfied by the scene. At once, they all dropped on their knees. It was an urban world. A natural one. None of the group members could have imagined that a normal person would have been able to pull such a spiritual stunt.And the fact that Damien was able to attain such a nerve wrecking prowess, it would only take common sense to register that he was not a normal person. "Please forgive us. We were not in our right minds. We shouldn't have d
Damien stood at the opening of an alley, looking down at the end. Though the houses on the right and left were super tall. They were row houses, yet the distance from where he was standing to the end of the alley wasn't too far. So, he could make a visual judgement of those who were standing at the end. He shut his eyes for a while. There were a couple of things going on in his mind. When next he opened his eyes, they glowed. "Let's see which of these powers I still have in check. The last time, I could only use the Zoom function and make my eyes glow."He shut his eyes again and concentrated the energy. That was all he needed to get the spiritual strength working and charge his inner man up. When he swiped the hand up, he felt shades of lights on the back of his close eyelids. When he opened his eyes, he saw a window pop-up right in front of him. [Ping! Functions available in full display.]He read through the window,[Ping! The Zoom function.][Ping! The Nether infinity map.][P
"What should I do with yoi?"Damien heard Ari say. He had a strong conviction that the lad in flashy clothes was obviously Ari. Arigota Nagazumi."Not only do you covet my babe, you also ruined my sneakers. Do you have an idea how much that cost me? 70k!!! Have you ever seen, let alone, have such huge money in your entire pathetic life?"Ari lashed at the lad who knelt in the middle of the group. There was a lady amongst them. "His babe?"Damien muttered, looking somewhat confused. "Did he just say he has a babe? Is that girl with them his babe?"As he asked that question, as though the girl heard him, she leaned forward and kissed Ari in the lips. Damien's eyes widened. "This bastard. He has a babe, and he's trying to impress my daughter? What is his motive?"Damien was tempted to approach him at once. He wanted to beat the words out of Ari. But then he realised that there was much more to getting information. And to think of it, his class was beyond the ordinary. So, he shouldn't
"Thank you for coming to my aid."The lad said to Damien. His green eyes lit up his whole face. He was good-looking but unkempt. And because of that, his beauty was hidden. "Are you in the same department as he?"Damien asked. The lad nodded. "I shouldn't have given the letter to her. I've written so many of them, which I ended up trashing. I have no idea what got over me this time. If I had trashed it like the rest, perhaps this wouldn't have happened to me."Damien gazed softly on the lad as he spoke. Damien sighed, looking away for a while. "Don't beat yourself up for confessing your feelings. Nobody should be made to feel that way because of their feelings. It just happens that some people are not worthy of our sincere emotions. They prefer living in the illusion of class and recognition. They need social validation to feel alive. They are like walking dead. They have no life for themselves. They are the most pathetic of all human beings."Those words of Damien comforted the la
"You don't think it's cool to keep people waiting, do you?"Ari asked, gazing at Damien."Perhaps if you've chosen a more reflective location that doesn't test status."Damien retorted, but he kept his voice under check to hide how digusted he was. "LOL. See who's talking. Doesn't wealth pump your veins?"Damien said nothing. Ari walked closer. "Speaking of wealth, how is your bank account fairing?"He paused, wearing a smirk. "I mean, after splurging that much money to outdo me. Must be much hassle trying to beat me."Damien had no response yet. He just kept staring. He didn't leave the position he was occupying. Instead, it was Ari who was closing the pace every now and then. At that moment, Damien wasn't really sure why Ari must have invited him. But he was dying to know. One thing that he knew for sure was the fact that meeting Ari meant flaunting wealth. That was an easy fact to come by. "Man, I had no idea that I'm this popular. Ari, you're quite in style."Ari gloated. Dam
Damien halted at the front of a building. There was a banner pinned to the top of the building. It read, THE EVERLIFE CHARITY WALK."A charity place? Is he coming to a charity place?"Damien was a little confused for the first few seconds. He just couldn't put the puzzle together. "Ari coming to charity place? How? Why? He doesn't seem like someone like that."He didn't know what else to think. Then he saw a man walking towards the door of the building. He walked to the man. "Excuse me, sir. Please could you please tell me what this place is about?"The man halted, looked him from head to toe, and then walked in. Damien sighed. "Do humans really have the same mindsets? Or have I been walking into the wrong set of people all along?""Perhaps you should change your clothes into something quite formal."He heard a familiar voice interrupt his link of thoughts. He didn't need to turn at once. He knew who that was. "I don't put much fancy in clothes. They get changed every now and then
"How is this possible?""How could someone splurge that amount of money in the blink of an eye?""This is definitely not real.""Who is he?"Though the men were distances apart, yet the incident had them connecting in words and shocks. Ari still couldn't find his words. He just pointed at Damien. "You..."Was all he could say. But if he had his way, he probably would want to disappear at once from the level of humiliation he was feeling at that moment. "50 trillion!!!"The lady exclaimed. She was having a hard time believing, too. It was obvious from the collective reactions that none of the people present in the hall was prepared for what Damien had just done. WHY DO YOU THEY LOOK SO STUNNED THOUGH? DID I OVERDO IT AGAIN? HAVE I UNNECESSARILY BROUGHT ATTENTION TO MYSELF AGAIN LIKE I DID WITH THE GIFT?Damien could only imagine. Even though he was feeling that he might be doing too much, yet there was nothing he could do about it. He couldn't possibly take back what he had said.
Almost walked out of the building and saw the lady standing next to a Rolls Royce. He was going to walk to her when he heard someone call him from behind. He turned. It was the same man. "Do you mind telling me your name?"The man asked. He gazed at him for a while. He looked the man from his head to the toe. "You don't look like someone who should know my name."Damien said coldly, then walked away. The man stood there, staring in defeat as he watched Damien go. It was the same spot where he had snubbed Damien. Perhpas Karma does have a thing for efficiency. When he got to the Rolls Royce, the lady bowed slowly and opened the door,"You shouldn't do that all the time."He said to her and got in. She shut the door and walked to the other side. She got in and started to drive. While she drove, Damien was trying so hard not to look at her. If he did look at her, he feared that he would say what's in his head, which was,I WANT TO FUCK YOU. Of course that would be rude. The old Dami
