Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 11 - Breaking his ego
Chapter 11 - When the waiter led him to his room, the presidential suite was quite bigger than what he had been anticipating.It felt like he was going to be wasteful if he stayed in that sort of grand place alone and he wasn’t sure if he was going to spend more than one night at the hotel.”“Can you take me to a smaller room? I just want to rest a bit before heading out.” he said.“Sure, come with me, please.” the receptionist replied politely. He wanted to serve Alex to his satisfaction because of how rude he was to him earlier.That time he was aware that he was a VVIP, his job really depended on how he treated the guests.As they walked down to another room, they ran into a woman dressed in a long black and shiny dinner gown. She seemed to carry so much power as she walked down the hallway as the guest and workers in the hotel and to stop and bow to greet her while she was walking.Alex’s eyes met with hers and he groaned internally when he realized who she was. He had run in
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 12 - Take him to your friends
The line went silent as David Norton did not know how best he would explain to Thea about what had transpired between him and Alex.“Give me an answer. We both know that my grandfather doesn’t have much time. I need to find this man as fast as I can. No matter what it takes.” Thea said she could barely mask her desperation any more.“I met this young man at the Bourne’s mansion when I was about to treat their daughter. We had a little conflict so I wasn’t able to get his contact or even get his personal information.” He said in a small voice.Thea immediately understood what Dr Norton said. She understood that the top orthodox doctor in Mericania would not believe that there was someone better than him.“Thank you, Dr David. I will try to contact the Bournes about it.”Though the doctor was young, he was able to treat the Bourne’s young daughter that Norton wasn’t able to heal. It is possible that he will be able to heal her grandfather too. Now that her hopes were high, she was goi
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 13 - The golden card
“After they ate brunch, Alex was about to leave when Miller asked, “Where are you heading to? You only just got here and we haven't had a drink yet.”“Ah, I am going to the XY bank, I have something to sort out over there.”Alex had to go to the medicine market to buy some ingredients to prepare the antidote he was going to make for Lord Thor Walton’s treatment. So he wants to go and cash out some money from the golden card that Liya had given him.“That is good, Molly has some matters to tend to for the company at the XY bank, the both of you can go there together.” Uncle Miller suggested.That caused him to be more and more frustrated, the more he was trying to stay away from her, the closer he was getting to her.Molly on the other hand was mad about her father’s decision but she knew better than to go against her father's wishes.She had a mischievous grin on her face while she drove both of them to the bank, “Alex, do you know what kind of people use the XY bank?”“The top one pe
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 14 - Molly changed her mind twice
The doorman's little scream got the ears of the others and they heard that someone had come with the golden card, they were shocked to hear that someone that was in the bank had that in their possession. Even Molly was stunned on hearing that.The golden card was only meant for someone in the XY bank, it means no two people can possess such a card. The one with the most money in the bank is the only one who gets the golden card. It was rumored that no one except the bank manager knows the true amount that is laying in that account.Some rumor also had it that the money cannot be spent finish, even if they spent more than ten million dollars everyday.The total amount in the account was two times the total amount of what everyone else that had an account in the XY bank.It was suspring that Alex is in possession of such a card, it was more than surprising to see someone have it. The doorman knew that if the owner of the card came, he wasn’t supposed to attend to them, only the bank man
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 15 - The war god's request
Uthman, the bank manager noticed the commotion from the glass office, he was crusy to know what was going on so after he attended to the last customer in the office, he stepped out and joined them downstairs.'What is going on here?’ he asked as he approached them.The doorman who had brought out his cellphone and was about to call the cops, kept the phone in his pocket and politely answered the bank manager, “Mr Uthman. This man came here with an expired golden card and he is trying to act like he has an active card here even after the face recognition machine gave him off. I was just about to call the cops when you came.”He added the last sentence with a sense of pride in him.Uthman’s face turned stone cold, “You must be out of your mind, you idiot. gHow did our procedures skip your mind? Anyone who walks in with the special designated cards must be brought up for verification. How dare you attempt to confirm the authenticity of the most important customer in this bank!”The doorm
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 16 - Patient dog.
The confusion on his face quickly cleared but he wasn’t expecting that the War god, Lord Thea, would have found out about the Divine doctor, it was already surprising that someone of her caliber was asking him for help.He wondered how she had found out that Alex had healed his daughter because his circle was pretty tight and his wife did not have a close relationship with the war god or anyone that could be her friend.“It seems like you're still confused as to why I asked you to come here even when I have told you what I want from you.” Thea said as she flicked her lighter open and lit her cigar stick.“Lord Thea, I am only astonished that the news of a young man healing my daughter has reached for your ears. This young man is actually the divine healer so I have not told anyone about him yet.”(A/N: Lord Thea because she is a war god which is usually a masualine position and she chose not to adopt the title, Lady Thea.)Donald then remembered that Dr Norton was also present with t
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 17 - Most Expensive Meal
Somehow Alex found himself in Molly’s car again, his uncle Miller had called him and Molly to check if they were still going to join his friends like they had previously planned.When he was done at the bank, she drove to his side and parked the car then she told him to hop in after she was sure that he was getting arrested.“I know the manager must have considered not arresting you because he saw that you were related to my family. You better thank your stars.” She said haughty.After he got off the call with Donlad Bourne, the manager went back outside to explain a few more things about his account to him when Molly had arrived to pick him up.“We are going to meet my friends now, they are the kids of the top most elites in Mericania so I will advise you now to watch the way you speak and act around them. If you start pretending as if you are some great person or like you have some big money like you did at the back then you should not blame me for anything that happens after.”She
Phenomenal Alex Cole Chapter 18 - High society classes
As soon as he heard her comment he understood why Molly had left him by the door, she had set Rebecca to embarrass him in front of their other friends.“Do you have the right guy or you need to get your eyes checked,” A young woman who was holding a glass of wine said. “Does this guy look like he would be allowed into Donald Bourne's hotel?”“You are the infamous Alex Cole of the Trim City’s Cole family, did you come back home to leech off others after realizing that you cannot make it out there? Coming back here to live off others is a shameful thing to do as a man,” “Take my brother, Killian Gomez, as an example. He had several night bars opened in his own name without relying on our parents, he even takes his time to give huge allowance from his bank account. I am sure your sister doesn’t get top enjoy this sort of thing.:”Just as she completed her statement, Molly walked toward them with a man wrapping his hands provocatively. It was funny for Alex to have seen that, given tha

Later, in the quiet of the strategy garden, the Crown Prince sat with Alex beneath the phoenix blossom tree. The sun had softened, casting golden light through the leaves. “You were not wrong to speak bluntly,” the Prince said. “But it will draw more enemies,” Alex replied. The Prince nodded. “I am used to them.” He looked up at the sky. “There was a time I believed in peace. In balance. But now… I see we are all pieces on a board shaped by men like Bourne.” Alex’s voice was low. “Then let us be the ones who flip the board.” The Prince smiled faintly. “You remind me of my uncle when he was young.” “Was he wise?” “He was brave,” the Prince said. “And now he is dead.” They sat in silence. Then the Prince stood. “I have a favor to ask.” “Speak it.” “Continue your research on flame Qi,” the Prince said. “There is a legend I need verified. One that involves your seal… and my mother.” Alex raised a brow. “What legend?” The Prince’s voice lowered. “That the Phoenix Line o
Chapter 177 - Dangerous waters
The banners of the Jade Pavilion fluttered in the late morning breeze as the Imperial Court of Elders convened for an unscheduled session.It was rare for the Crown Prince to summon the council without imperial prompting. Rarer still for him to do so on temple day, when most elders were expected to attend prayer offerings or engage in scholarly review. Yet all thirteen robed figures arrived within the hour, none bold enough to decline the Crown Prince’s personal seal.At the center of the grand chamber, a long half-moon dais faced a raised seat where the Crown Prince now sat, flanked by two incense-bearing ministers. Behind him stood Alex Cole, dressed once again in black and silver robes, his face calm though his presence sent a ripple through the room.The court was not used to outsiders.Certainly not ones who stood without kneeling.Yet none called it out.They had heard of him.They had heard of the poisoned assassin.The Crown Prince stood.His voice was steady, rich with the
Chapter 176 - Half brother
The first light of morning filtered through the lattice windows of the Crown Prince’s private strategy hall, casting long golden bars across the polished floor. Outside, the palace was waking. Gardeners swept fallen petals. The temple bells rang softly in the distance. Couriers moved with quick steps, carrying missives sealed in jade tubes.But inside, the tension was suffocating.Alex Cole stood near a long scroll table, arms folded across his chest. He had cleaned and dressed his wounds, though the bandage around his left bicep was still fresh. His expression was unreadable.Across from him stood Thea Walton, her cloak removed and tossed across the nearest chair. Her uniform was partially undone, revealing the tight linen beneath, but she looked less like a war general today and more like a woman on the edge of something personal.The Crown Prince sat at the head of the room, leaning slightly on his right arm. His sword, wiped clean of the assassin's blood from the night before, la
Chapter 175 - Alex goes down
Moonlight spilled across the cobblestone pathways of the imperial courtyard like liquid silver. The garden here, nestled between the east wing of the inner court and the outer temple pavilions, was designed for silence. No servants wandered here after dusk. The lanterns had been dimmed to faint embers, and only the distant rustling of wind-touched bamboo broke the stillness.Alex Cole stood alone beneath the blossoming night cherry tree at the garden’s edge.His breath was shallow. Fatigue gnawed at his bones.He had not rested since the completion of the cure. The strain of channeling high-tier flame Qi during refinement had pushed his meridians close to overload. Though he had masked it well, his energy was fractured. Spiritual channels that usually ran like rivers now trickled slowly, choked by internal strain.Still, something had drawn him outside.A whisper at the back of his mind. A prickle at the base of his neck.He had sensed it earlier at his window—a shift in the palace’s
Chapter 174 - Wraith Needle
The lanterns had long dimmed across the inner court, but in a secluded corner of the Physician's Wing, a single chamber glowed with light. Alex Cole sat at a low lacquered table, the air thick with the fragrance of crushed herbs and warmed spiritual energy. Golden runes shimmered faintly across the floor in a formation meant for concentration and Qi stabilization. The walls were lined with jade tiles, each engraved with protective symbols inscribed by royal talisman artisans. This was no ordinary guest chamber. The Crown Prince himself had ordered it prepared. Alex’s robe had been shed and folded neatly at the side of the table. A light inner tunic clung to his body, damp with sweat. Before him lay a tray of rare ingredients: the White Snake Flower, now fully harmonized; a dish of powdered Thunder Leaf; and a sealed vial of jade resin, freshly extracted from the spiritual trees near Mount Qingshan. Everything had been checked for purity three times. Still, Alex performed his
Chapter 173 - The princess’s offer
The Grand Celestial Hall was radiant.Golden lanterns floated high above, suspended by unseen formations, casting a warm light that made the entire space shimmer like sunlight on water. Court nobles stood dressed in their most formal silks, their heads adorned with jade pins, gold-threaded hats, or embroidered veils depending on their rank. The occasion was an impromptu court gathering organized by the Crown Prince. It had been called to celebrate the stabilization of his condition and to officially welcome a guest who had become the subject of whispers in every corner of the palace.That guest was Alex Cole.He stood at the far end of the hall, flanked by two royal aides. His robe was midnight blue, gifted by the Crown Prince himself. It bore no family crest but was trimmed with silver lining and celestial cloud embroidery that marked him as someone favored by the highest echelons of power.He did not seek the attention of the room.But the room gave it to him all the same.Dozens
Chapter 172 - Spirit Guardian
The greenhouse was silent.Too silent.Alex Cole stood motionless, the crystal case housing the White Snake Flower still warm in his palm. Princess Serena had vanished into the maze of luminous vines to inspect a sacred fern said to release spiritual mist under moonlight. The glass dome above shimmered, reflecting the glow of suspended spirit-lanterns, yet the energy inside the room had changed.He felt it first in his skin like a static charge in the air.Then, deeper within his core.The Qi of the White Snake Flower… was no longer calm.Alex frowned.The flower in his hand pulsed unnaturally. Instead of the gentle rhythm of a living plant, its spiritual essence felt… jagged. Fractured. Like a song suddenly off-key.He set the crystal case on a stone pedestal and knelt beside it. His fingers hovered just above the jade-sealed latch as he closed his eyes, letting his senses extend outward.At first, he sensed nothing unusual.But the deeper he probed into the flower’s essence, the mor
Chapter 171 - Orchid Blade
The midday sun glinted off the curved rooftops of the Jade Pavilion as a cooling breeze swept through the palace grounds. Underneath a shaded colonnade near the eastern garden, Alex Cole stood, gazing out at the koi pond below. The serene scene before him was interrupted only by the murmuring of distant court attendants and the flutter of palace banners.He had barely stepped out of the treatment chamber when the summons came. A young maid had approached respectfully and, after bowing, informed him that Princess Serena awaited him at the Jade Bridge, the symbolic entryway into the Imperial Greenhouse.Now, he waited.He had heard the name before. Serena, one of the Crown Prince’s cousins—was no ordinary princess. Known as the “Orchid Blade” among palace circles, she was a celebrated martial arts prodigy, the youngest in decades to win the Royal Combat Trials and the only princess to ever defeat a member of the palace guard in single combat. But she was also known for her mercurial te
Chapter 170 - Nine Dragon silver needle box
The jade-tiled chamber was one of the most sacred rooms within the Imperial Healing Pavilion.Located at the innermost wing of the inner court, it was accessible only by the royal family, top-ranking imperial physicians, and the occasional war hero brought back on the edge of death. The floor was carved from ancient sea jade, a rare mineral believed to channel cooling energy and absorb pain. The ceiling glistened with embedded pearls that reflected sunlight through gilded lanterns, bathing the room in a soft halo of calm.Alex Cole stood alone at its center.He was dressed in ceremonial black robes trimmed with silver, tied tightly at the waist. His sleeves had been rolled back, revealing forearms covered with faint acupuncture scars from years of self-training. In his right hand, he held a long, rectangular wooden case, the Nine Dragon Silver Needle Box, a gift passed to him by Dustin before his journey began.The box had remained unopened for years.Now, it whispered to him.The he
