The pain surged through Lyon and he shook his head as he closed his eyes. The boss wouldn’t stop smiling in victory but Lyon had another plan.He could feel his body healing around the knife but all he had to do was find a way to get the knife out of his stomach.Why did he let his guard down? Is this what is going to happen if he wasn’t always aware of things going on around him?With a smirk, Lyon looked back up at the boss and the boss was confused, he couldn’t understand what was going on.He had just stabbed Lyon, how come he didn’t look hurt?“You know, one would think you’re smart enough to know that it would take more than a blunt knife to end my life.” Lyon sneered.“You could’ve tried something else and see if that worked but a knife?” Lyon tutted as he smiled at the boss.“I can’t die because you stabbed me with a knife! I have faced worse!” He yelled before kicking the boss.Lyon removed the knife from his stomach and his wound closed up at once as he walked in the directi
“There’s someone else,” the boss continued saying, “and he won’t stop until he has hunted you down and killed you.” He finished.“He’s going to find you, I just know it and you’ll stop being an arrogant bast—“ He didn’t finish talking because bullets immediately plunged into his chest.The sound of gunshots caused Lyon and Chelsey to turn and Chelsey was glad to see Abraham. She rushed to him and hugged him too.“You all really came for me, thank you very much.” She said, still hugging him so tight that he could barely breathe.“I can’t— I can’t breathe, Chelsey.” Abraham said and Chelsey laughed as she quickly pulled away from him.She was filled with so much joy and happiness and she was glad that she got to make friends with Lyon because if she hadn’t then she and the other girls will probably have been transported.“Thank you.” She said to Abraham genuinely but he only smiled as he returned his gun to its holster.“You don’t have to thank me or any of the men,” Abraham said as he
Lyon was shocked, he was expecting a lot of things from her but he wasn’t expecting her to kiss him like that.“What do you think you’re doing?” Lyon asked as he pulled her away from him. His eyes were wide with shock as he looked down at Chelsey.She didn’t know why she did that, all she knew was that she was out of her mind and she wasn’t listening to her head before going for Lyon’s lips like that.“I—-“ Her voice caught in her throat and she blushed in embarrassment as she looked at Lyon and saw that he was really mad at him.What was she thinking? Why did she kiss him like that when she could’ve done something else, like hug him?She still felt indebted to him and she felt like she was obligated to thank him but with what she just did, she knew that she had completely crossed the line.“I’m sorry, I wasn’t thinking. I’m really sorry.” She apologized desperately, her heart racing and her knees weak as she looked away from him.“I’m sorry, again.” She added before running away from
“Problem?” Lyon asked as he and Elen looked at each other before looking back at Abraham who was nodding already.“What’s the problem?” They asked at the same time and Abraham dropped some newspapers on the table before he started talking.He explained some things that sounded foreign to Lyon but he listened anyway, he wanted to know what Abraham was getting at.“You remember those girls you rescued not quite long?” Abraham asked and Lyon nodded. It hasn’t even been days, how could he forget?“What happened to them? Have they been kidnapped again?” Lyon asked but Abraham only shook his head as he opened the newspaper.“Actually, my source gathered that the people that kidnapped those girls are one of the biggest human trafficking cartels in the state right now.”“They are very powerful and I remember the boss we met there telling you that there’s a bigger boss.” Abraham paused for a moment.“Before I shot him, I heard him say to you that the bigger boss was going to come for you and h
“Important task? Why is it important?” Lyon asked himself as he pulled his shirt off and decided to take a shower before sleeping.He walked to the bathroom but he had accidentally opened the message again and he looked up to see the System pointing to a location.Lyon looked at the place carefully and he felt like he knew the marked spot but he also knew that he didn’t have any time to speculate or even shower so he picked up his jacket and headed out.“Zoom,” Lyon said as he walked and the system zoomed in properly on the map, “god, I just hope it’s not like the millennial dragon thing.” Hr said to himself.“I almost got killed, what if this one is stronger than the dragon? What kind of beast could it be?” Lyon asked himself.Lots of questions were roaming around in his head and the more he thought about it, the more he got curious and wanted to know.“I finished all of my tasks,” he said as he went through the list of all the tasks that he was supposed to do for the day and he chec
“What?” Lyon groaned as he went flying across the street and was hit again before he could hit the ground. He wasn’t given a chance to retaliate until he was drained of all his vitality.Lyon spat out blood and he could feel his body give up on him as he struggled to stand, his legs were weak and his back hurt so much.He managed to turn and it wasn’t until then that he realized what he was up against. It wasn’t just one beast but there were four.“It’s curtains for me if I don’t give it my all.” Lyon said to himself as the beasts stood beside each other. They looked like they were coming up with a new attack and Lyon knew that he couldn’t keep lying down.He still had some strength left in him and he could use that to escape to a place and refill his power. He looked at the screen and immediately used his speed.The speed enabled Lyon to run really fast past them and he was able to hide behind a huge wall.His breathing was fast and his heart was pounding so fast that it felt like he
“We have to do something or they could attack when we’re not expecting them.” Abraham added but Lyon was more worried about how everything played out.“If I didn’t leave the house when I thought I did, then what happened?” He thought to himself as he tried to make sense of what was happening.“I grabbed my coat and—“ He was deep in thought and more worried about how he didn’t leave the house but still managed to get outside and level up.He also wondered how it was possible for him to have healed really quickly. He was badly injured and sure that he lost an arm.All of these were a source of concern for him rather than a powerless cartel. He wasn’t worried about them because he wasn’t scared of them.“Master!” Abraham’s voice jolted him out of his thoughts and he turned to face Abraham who looked worried as to why Lyon was lost in thought.“What should we do about the message because we have to do something?” Abraham said and Lyon nodded as if he was thinking about something.“We real
“Wha— What do you mean by I’ve turned into one?” Lyon asked, his eyes wide as he questioned Abraham.He didn’t want to be a beast, he wanted to be the human that he is now and if he knew that killing those beasts would turn him into one, he wouldn’t have killed them.“I didn’t know I was going to turn into a beast, I just wanted to level up and although they were dangerous, I thought they’d help me.” Lyon explained.He was starting to feel the rush of power that was starting to overwhelm him and he began to feel like he was going to turn into those dogs too.Abraham laughed, he knew that Lyon knows nothing about the creatures he has been fighting so he took his time to explain to him.He told Lyon that the beast he fought had been dead for millions of years just like dragons and dinosaurs and before the three headed beast called the Cerberus, those dogs were the guards of hell.Lyon couldn’t believe what he was hearing, it sounded like something right out of a fantasy book but he list
