The weather had been bad all week, and the sky was always gray. Karl van Bate's mood was just like the weather: gloomy to the extreme.

As he walked down the wet stone street, people greeted him from time to time-Karl ran a school in this town. Unlike the Kingdom of Graycastle, where only the children of noble could go to school, here he taught r the children of ordinary people.Therefore, he had a very high reputation in Border Town. "Hey,Mr. van Bate, good morning. "

"Sir, is my son doing all right?"

"When are you free, Karl? Let's go fishing together."

Usually, Karl would always smile and respond to them, but today he just nodded, never saying a word.

He had just witnessed Anna's hanging, so in his eyes there was a crack in the once-perfect world-or this crack had begun to form since his departing from Graycastle, but he deliberately turned a blind eye.He used his busy work to numb himself, and to a certain extent,he even used the innocent smile of the students to mend this crack.

    While Bryan was going through the details of the chosen heroes to defeat Maximus (the Vengeance god). Someone else in a distant realm was also doing the same.[MEANWHILE IN VANTREA]Maximus read through the history of border town and he couldn't help but frown. There was nothing about the cave of gold mentioned in that book, only about ability users they called witches and devil's servants, and also about their King who wasn't of this realm, but none of these was of any help to him right now.As he sat down inside the library, he was pissed at everything that's been happening.“Its been three weeks and I haven't got any improvement on this mission. The only thing I know is that the Killer Wolves Elite and that blasted Vengeance god Black Heart are now in this world. No cave of gold, no Diamond and her soldiers, and certainly no way to leave this cursed place. I should never have taken this mission. What the hell was I thinking! That it would just be a walk in the park?”Maximus stood

    Maximus sprinted towards the path leading to the gateway. There was no way he would let the Vengeance god lay waste to the good people of Triton City.'I have to return as fast as I can!'As Maximus got close to his destination, he sensed powerful auras around the place.'I should have known they would leave a few persons to guard the place, wouldn't want the people of Vantrea fleeing out of the town.' Maximus thought to himself as he stealthily walked towards the source of the aura.“You don't have to hide. I spotted you a long time ago.” a teenage voice said from behind Maximus. Immediately Maximus took a defensive stance before leaving his hiding spot. He walked forward with his two daggers in hand, ready for any surprises, which there wasn't.Maximus finally came face to face with the sources of the powerful auras he had felt a while ago. They belonged to seven persons in total, and one of them was a female. While five were standing in front of him, two were behind him. The moment

Someone must have leaked out information as it seems these guys were waiting for us, and we walked right into an ambush.“I fucken knew this will happen! Never trust the Nigerian government! Bunch of saboteurs!” Risky cursed as he swooped down beside me to dodge a bullet. I had a hunch something like this will turn up, but I didn't expect it to reach such an extent. These Somalians actually brought a battalion to deal with just seven people... Who the hell comes with three hundred soldiers to with seven ex soldiers!“Father! Shall we retreat!?” Erik's voice sounded via the airpod we use.“Negative! Proceed as planned. I will draw their fire, Starlet you do the same, the rest of you plant those bombs in the places we've marked.” I said and moved towards a few soldiers who were busy with setting up for the mortar attack.“I will start by taking out that mortar! you

    [28th December 2024.]This was the big day. Today's the day my soulmate and I become officially a couple. I couldn't be more happier. I went to the wardrobe and brought out the Italian suit which I had bought just for this day.“Max, dress up, everyone's ready except you.” My Mom shouted from the balcony.“I'll be through soon Mom.” I shoved my excitement aside and wore the suit, combed my hair, and rushed off to the balcony.“Are the cars ready?” I asked Mom.“Keep smiling like that and our soon to be inlaws will think you have a facial disease.” my Mother berated me with a smile plastered on her face.“My boy is finally becoming a man.” she squealed as she cupped my face. Mom was dressed in a silk-satin sky blue evening gown, with a V neckline. This dress code was brought by a very good friend of mine, Queen Esther. “You look gorgeous Mom.” I said, while she blushed.“Stop making this old lady feel young.” she said while smiling.“Hurry up y'all, we're gonna be late.” Erik my son s

We've been through countless suicide missions together and they fear nothing and no one. After the Bornu state mission, we upped our game with the millions we were paid with. Now we're amongst the top tier mercenary guilds.“Be seated.” I said as I took the seat which looked more like a throne than an ordinary chair.“I'm sure you all have heard of what happened.” I said, and they all kept mute, waiting for me to continue.“I don't desire pity. I simply want the location and photos of my prey. This hunt is mine and so are the preys.” I said while oozing out darkness magic.“Boss, w

I smiled, it seems not all the pests have been taken care of. I took out three shokuren, held it on my left hand, while my katana on the right hand. I smashed the door down and threw the three shokuren forward while I did a cartwheel to dodge the bullet rain. The shokuren struck a cop on the fore

The boy only looked to be fourteen or fifteen years old at most. The boy was wearing a basic robe, lying on a bed. Machines were connected to him.They observed the video and noticed how the boy seemed like he was being tortured. There were three more people in the room that looked like scientists. The video ended as the boy stopped moving as if he was dead. The Scientists left the room. Some maids came, wrapped the boy in sheets, and carried him outside.Vega removed his hand from the screen as the video ended. Gazing back at his people, he calmly asked,"What did you think about that video?""What was that video? Some scientists doing experiments on a kid, or was it torture?" Caen asked.He continued,"We already know humans are cruel. Nothing new. Why should we care if a kid was killed? Unless... There's s

    A fool's errandOmega sat down in front of Kahn and bowed his head without looking Kahn in the eyes. It felt as if Omega was submitting himself and acknowledging Kahn as it's master. The next moment, Kahn felt a connection towards Omega as of the wolf was an extension of his own body and consciousness.“Do you understand what I'm saying?” Kahn asked Omega to check whether his guess was right.Omega nodded in response and stood back up.“Good. Now go and hunt something I could eat. Not too big and meat shouldn't be too hard to chew.” Kahn commanded Omega. Since je was under the weakened state, he barely had strength to walk and could not go to find something to eat.He thought about having something to eat first because he had no energy left in him and meat was the best source to regain strength.After Omega ran off towards the bushes and completely disappeared out of his sight, Kahn called to the system again.“System, can you help me create fire?” Kahn asked curiously.«What am I, y

He already expected something like this to happen when he killed the red wolf and heard the Ding sound in his head.To his surprise, he not only learned how to activate War Dominance but he also broke through the current threshold of his capacity and already went past his limits to meet the conditions to unlock his War Deity Body. This means he will be twice stronger when he recovered his strength again.The first encounter Kahn had in Vantrea as soon as he entered was a life or death battle and he barely managed to survive. Who knew if eh we ended up dying here, would anyone ever know or care? He would die just a nameless death.. AGAIN.Kahn tried to focus his mind again on the notifications in his mind. There was no system panel or screen board for him to check these notifications in a list or scroll through them one by one.

He was six-feet and three-inches tall, normal white skin tone same as his previous life. He had an angled but somewhat wider jaw. His face was well proportioned and very handsome. He had bulging muscles and six pack abs. Unlike his previous life, this time his hair color was completely black and not brown. They were smooth, soft, and wavy. His hair was done from the right side from his perspective. They were long but not till his shoulder length long either. His eyes were black, unlike his former life where they were blue. It was not to stand out or being assumed as someone from a particular region because blue eyes were always most noticeable part of particular countries or regions. Black hair and eye color was very universal on the other hand.His built was very balanced. His upper body had wider shoulders and big arms, his chest was big enough to ali

    I found himIn the void of nothingness, where the flow of time itself didn't exist and not even a ray of light could be seen. This place was neither Heaven nor Hell. It was just an infinite space filled with absolute nothing as if the concept of life and death did not exist here.Suddenly, a crack in space appeared out of nowhere, it kept elongating at an extremely fast speed and in an instant, it stretched around ten kilometers and a gigantic figure sitting on a black stone throne which was no less than a size of a mountain itself emerged from the other side of the void.This figure was akin to the height of a couple of mountains, completely clad in majestic black clothes and had a hood on the head almost resembling the Grim Reaper itself. Its face could not be seen as if it didn't exist. It looked around for a moment and waved its right hand and created a space of its own, widening for a dozen kilometers and stabilizing itself like forming a gigantic barrier.An ancient voice, so de

"This is incredible."Alex nodded, their heart racing with excitement. "Let's go," they said. "We need to find out if it's safe."As they entered the city, they saw that it was abandoned - but not destroyed. The buildings were intact, the streets clean."It's like they just left," Jax said, his voice filled with awe.Dr. Taylor nodded, her eyes scanning the streets. "I think they did," she said. "I think they left in a hurry."Alex frowned, their mind racing with questions. "Why?" they asked. "What happened here?"But there were no answers. Just an eerie silence, and the feeling that they were being watched."Let's find a place to hide," Jax said, his voice low. "We don't know what's going on here."Alex nodded, their heart heavy with foreboding. "Yeah," they said. "Let's do that."As they mo
