Chapter 1
The lighting in the expansive study seemed to grow dimmer as Sylvester Wright wheeled himself in. As his sharp eyes took in the environment, he caught sight of his wife, Emily, hunched on a couch, her eyes empty and distant. She stared into space, a small crease on her forehead.For the past few days, she seemed to zone out more, becoming a shadow of herself. The smoke from the teacup in her hands grew faint.He let out a sigh, wheeling himself in her direction. She wasn’t aware of his presence; or so he thought. “Disappearing again?” Her sharp words cut into the silence faster than he could take his next breath. She turned to him, a feigned smile on her face. “For what? Six days? A week? Forever this time?”Clearing his throat for a moment, Sylvester thought of what to tell her. He could tell that she was getting to her breaking point. Could he blame her though? She had been patient enough. “I’ll be back soon, Emily,” he assured, his voice calm. “And I’ll explain everything to you.

“So, this…Nine, you call him?” Sylvester asked Otto. He, so far, had tried to be as casual with the boy as possible. He didn’t want to do anything to force his back into a shell, knowing everything he had been through. “Yeah?” Otto picked at the breakfast that was given to him. It was the next day, and the people that had taken him looked like they were going to care enough for him, so he was at peace. “You think you can remember exactly what he looked like?” Sylvester prodded lightly. “Oh, yeah. Beat me for a while. Of course, I remember,” Otto chuckled, his eyes darting back and forth trying to shake a reminiscence too vivid. This was what Sylvester was avoiding. A recall that would send him back into his shell, but it was necessary. How was he going to remember the face of the man, if he didn’t relive his traumatic past? Otto was going to have to be strong here. Otto chewed slowly, eyes flickering with a distant memory. “Tall. Muscular. Scar on his left cheek. Wore a lot o

Sylvester leaned against the edge of the desk, arms crossed, as he studied the young boy standing in front of him. Otto looked as wary as ever, even though they had just given him a nice meal and a set of new clothes that were more comfortable than the tattered pair that he was wearing before.One of the telltale signs of human trafficking is that the effects stick with you forever.Not for a long time…not for a very long time. Forever. And so Sylvester knew deep down, that Otto would never feel as great a sense of peace as the normal person ever again.And the fact that such a young boy had to experience horrors like these made his blood boil. It made him more determined to find these evil criminals and make them pay.Katherine, standing beside Sylvester, watched Otto with careful eyes. “So, these traffickers,” she started, “how many are they?”“Those aren’t productive questions,” Geral face-palms.“Well, we have got to start somewhere,” Katherine shrugged and looked back to the boy

RISE OF THE ALMIGHTY WARLORD GRANDMASTER Chapter 55
Cullen paced the darkened alley, his fingers twitching with impatience. The stranger had told him to come alone.That alone should have deterred him. He could be robbed here. Stabbed and killed. No one would ever find his body.Yet, here he was. Bravery fueled by the craving for power and revenge.Was this even healthy? He wasn’t sure. But one thing was certain. He was going to get his revenge. If this fell through the roof, he would look for an alternative.He had done underground deals before.But nothing like this.He had handed envelopes under tables, sent hush money, even done deals where he had to bury transactions and randomize his mail. But what he was seeing? This felt…strange. Truly, he was face to face with the black market.At first, it seemed to be nothing out of the ordinary. Just a dark shady alley way.But the eyes of the people passing by…when they met his, had a certain knowing that he knew was not of the world he was used to.A shadow moved at the far end of the al

Sylvester stared at the dot on his screen, blinking against the coordinates and lines.It was the tracker he had put on the boy, and the boy had already started moving, having finished his end of day sales, perhaps.Now, Sly just needed to find where he lived, so that he could begin paying the boy regular, more constructed visits, not like the cold standoffish conversation they had in the alleyway. He needed to make the boy see that he could fight for a better life, not just for himself, but for whatever was keeping him on the streets.The dot stopped moving.Not completely, just…around a particular point."An abandoned construction site?" he muttered to himself, narrowing his eyes.This couldn’t be the boy’s final destination. It was either he was remitting money to his suppliers, or taking stock for the next day’s sales. Or he was being jumped.There was the excuse that this could have been his home, since he did look like a runaway, but most runaways would have taken shelter in mor

RISE OF THE ALMIGHTY WARLORD GRANDMASTER Chapter 53
Sylvester moved through the streets of the city with intent. It had been a while since he was in through these parts – the market. The wealthier suburbs did a great job at shielding them from the disparity between the rich and the poor. Here, the poor reigned supreme, and Sylvester wasn’t sure he liked that. He was a super-wealthy man himself – perhaps one of the richest in his country, and he would have given all his wealth away if it would have helped. But he knew the truth. It just wouldn’t. He was here on a mission, though, the harsh runes of poverty aside. He was looking for people to join his army. People with a strong sense of justice. Greed had blinded the rich, and want had blinded the poor. There wasn’t exactly a middle ground to these things, but Sly was determined. He knew there were still people out there that shared his sense of justice. He wasn’t looking for just anyone. He needed people with fire, with hunger, with something to prove. That’s why the boy caug

RISE OF THE ALMIGHTY WARLORD GRANDMASTER Chapter 52
Cullen slumped over the bar counter, his fingers gripping the sweating glass of whiskey like it was his last tether to reality. And indeed, it was.The dark circles around his bloodshot eyes were only further emphasized by the dim light of the bar that cast at his face from a menacing angle. His tie was loosened, his blazer crumpled in a heap beside him, and the bitter stench of alcohol clung to his clothes. The bartender was used to these kinds of people, so he just gave Cullen space instead of trying to make the usual small talk that he usually did for customers who lingered too long."Emily... Sylvester..." Cullen slurred, his voice barely rising over the soft hum of jazz playing from the speakers. He let out a hollow laugh before taking another swig. "They think they’ve won. Think they can just...just ruin me. Take everything. I built my name from the ground up. As a man! Emily got to that top by whoring herself. And Sylvester? I’ll kill him. I’ll kill them all..."A chuckle c

RISE OF THE ALMIGHTY WARLORD GRANDMASTER Chapter 51
Emily sat in her car, staring out of the window as the darkened streets blurred past. The night was quiet, but her mind was anything but that. Her thoughts kept circling back to the dinner, to the way the matriarch had so easily cast Cullen aside. It wasn’t just the rejection itself that disturbed her, but the immense betrayal behind it. Cullen was a prick, and an insolent little brat that deserved to be tossed aside, but he was theirs. For years, he had done no bidding but theirs. He was useless and spoiled, but he was their useless, spoiled Cullen.Her pocket buzzed, pulling her from her reverie. She fished out her communication device and glanced at the name flashing on the screen.“Mother”Of course, she’d call.With a resigned sigh, she accepted the call.“Oh, Emily!” her mother’s joy felt baseless. “You heard what your grandmother said, right? I know you’re still angry, but…you just have to give this proper thought. It’s wonderful news! You’re never going to have to worry abou

Emily sat at the dining table, staring at the ornate letter in front of her. The wax seal had been broken, but the weight of the invitation still hung in the air. An invitation from the matriarch. She reread the words carefully, her fingers grazing the edges of the parchment. Why now? Why after everything? She pursed her lips and exhaled sharply. "I don’t like this." Sylvester, leaning against the doorway, arms folded across his chest, studied her reaction. "I figured as much." Emily lifted her eyes to him. "So, what do you think?" She knew Sylvester would encourage her for it. He had always been a man of peace, despite everything her family had put him through. The only thing he didn’t stand for was disrespect. "I think you should go." She let out a dry laugh. She called it. "Why do I feel like that’s exactly what they want?" "Probably is," he admitted. "But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t find out why." Emily looked down at the letter again, then back up at her husband. "A

RISE OF THE ALMIGHTY WARLORD GRANDMASTER Chapter 49
Cullen sat in the back of his car, fingers drumming lightly against the armrest as he forced himself to swallow his rage. The news from his company still echoed in his mind.More shares withdrawn, more investors fleeing like rats from a sinking ship. But he refused to let it consume him. Not now. Not when he had more important things to prepare for.He adjusted the cuffs of his finely tailored coat, taking in a deep breath as he reminded himself of his real purpose tonight: the matriarch had called him. And despite everything, despite the disaster his last scheme had turned into, they were finally seeing reason. They must have realized their mistake, realized that they had been too harsh. Tonight, they would apologize. And after that? Well, he would take what was rightfully his. A slow smirk played on his lips as he leaned back, imagining their regretful faces as they admitted their wrongs. They couldn’t stay mad at him forever. He was Cullen, after all. The family needed him just
