“What in the world are you doing? Who do you think you are?!” Jared was filled with rage, he was not even trying to understand what was going on. 

The only thing on his mind was how he was going to make sure that he made Keith pay for trying to embarrassing him. 

“You think there is something you can do? You don't even know who I am! I will make sure that you will die of hunger when I am done with you.” Jared began walking to Keith, he was going to make sure that he got his message to him. 

Keith looked back at Jared, he didn't know what he was planning to do but he was not about to stand there and watch them do something. 

“You know that there is no way for you to get anything out of whatever it is you are doing but I will tell you one thing. You have overstayed your welcome here and you don't want to make me angry.” Keith was not smiling anymore, he was looking at Jared trying to make sure he made go up to his hotel room and not take it too far. 

“What do you think you are? I am on top of the food chain, I am Jared Williams and I can do whatever I want and there is nothing you can do about it! You don't know this but you just made a mistake to even think of challenging me.” 

Jared was looking at him like he was looking at filth on the streets, he didn't know why Keith was talking back to him like there was something he could do or even think of doing but there was nothing there for him to do. 

“You know, I thought you would be smart enough to leave now and not take this shit too far but I see you like to get yourself into more trouble and I am willing to give you that if it's what you want.” Keith had a sinister smile on his face, there was no telling what was going on in his head and why he was looking at Jared like that. 

Eleanor was standing behind Jared and she couldn't believe what she was seeing this was the first time that she had ever seen Keith talk like he was a villian or like he was going to do something to anyone that would even come close to him. 

‘I don't get why they are treating him like a king? Keith Norman, the man I married, is nothing but a bum or is there something he didn't tell us?’ Eleanor knew that there was something she was missing and it was bothering her. 

Everyone present at the hotel lobby just stood there and witnessed the greatest confusion anyone would get in a while. Some minutes ago everyone was against the way Keith was even talking to Jared, they thought he was nothing but a bum trying to make sure that he got attention. 

But now it was not the same thing, they were filled with fear and there was no telling who Keith was and what he could do if he was able to make the owner of the City's largest hotel talk to him like a pauper. 

“Anyone able to talk to Jacqueline like that is not an ordinary man, Jacqueline is a force to be reckoned with and there is no telling who this man is. I have not seen him anywhere but only here.” 

“You are not lying, I didn't know that someone like this could even exist. I know there has to be something that he told Jacqueline to make him respect him like that.” 

“Can't you see how he is talking to Jacob Williams? There has been no one I repeat no one that would even think of talking to the Williams family heir like he was some kind of common man.” 

Everyone was looking at the commotion happening in front of them and there was confusion on who was on the right and who was meant to stop and leave the argument. 

“You vile insolent man! I am Jared Williams! Heir of the Williams family empire and the only man that would even think of being something in this town.”

Jared was not having any of the things Keith was saying and he was about to make sure that he didn't let him talk trash to him again. 

“You know, I don't really know when it was that someone told you that calling your name like that made it sound cool you're out here making it look like a freaking chore. Take my advice and leave this alone. You should be happy I am not throwing you out of this place.”

Keith was smiling when he turned to head up with Jacqueline, he wasn't going to take it too far so a fight won't break out. 

Jared was not going to let him walk out like that, he was going to make sure that he made Keith bow to him like all the servants would in his father's house. 

“Mr. Keith, please sir would you forgive me,” 

Keith paused to see who was pleading with him like that, he turned to see the manager that had gotten fired. 

“Oh you, you're still here and that is strange I thought you would have left the building by now?” Keith looked at him trying to find out why he was still there and what he was even trying to do. 

The man went on his kneels and began pleading with Keith, “I didn't know who you were and I was quick to judge, please will you forgive me and let me keep a job here. It's the only thing I have and there is no way I would survive.” 

Keith was shocked to see that the man would even beg him like that. “Wait am I in another universe now?” 

Keith had a surprised look on his face, he was not sure what he would say but he was just shocked how the man changed sides when he learnt that he was someone important to the hotel. 

“A few minutes ago you were about to throw me out of this hotel like I was nothing but a piece of shit. Now you are here begging me not to fire you, what a funny turn of events.” 

Keith was not going to let him off for insulting him like he was nothing to anyone but a bum because Jared told him to. 

“I swear, there was no way I would have done that if I didn't get the wrong information about you. I thought you were a good for nothing and that was what he told me and I didn't even think twice before I believed him.” 

The man was not even looking at Jared anymore, he wanted his job back and the only person that would even think helping him to get it back was Keith but there was a chance he was not going to get it back. 

Keith didn't say a word, he stood there looking at the man like he was some kind of irritation to his eyes. 

“You think that you can use that on me? You called me a bum and you said that you would make sure that there is no way you were going to let me stay in this hotel any longer. Are you telling me that you didn't know when you said those words?” 

Keith was looking at the man, he was not about to let him go without making him pay for all he said to him and all the bad words he used on him. 

“I did say all that but please can you forgive me. I am on my knees begging you to forgive me. There is no way I would think of trying to make you feel bad or something like that if I knew who you were.” 

“So now you know who I am, you want to respect me? You want me to forget all you said and let you work here like there was nothing wrong?” Keith was filled with rage and anger, he looked at the man. 

He knew that there was nothing genuine about the way he was begging for forgiveness that seemed any in all genuine and it was clear that there would be problems if he took him back. 

“You want to know what the foolish thing is? You told everyone that you would see to it that I am thrown out and I will be left homeless and poor. You even bet on it and now the tables have turned you want to get a second shot at things? There is no way I am letting you stay here any longer than this.”

Keith was stern, he knew that there was going to be nothing but trouble if he took the man in. 

“What are you saying sir?” The man was eager to hear Keith's answer even when he knew that there would be no chance in hell that he would even let him stay. 

“Get your filthy self out of here!” Keith growled in anger.

    There was silence in the room, Keith was pissed off and it was not looking like he was going to listen to anyone. “Sir? What do you mean?” the man kept shivering; he had heard Keith but he was not sure that there was going to be a chance for him to even talk to Keith again. “Are you deaf? I told you to get yourself out of here and make sure that you don't show your face around here again.” Keith was stern when he said those words, the ex-manager knew better than to make Keith angry than he was already. He stepped back and began to walk away, there was nothing he could do or say to even make him consider giving him his work back. “This is beyond an embarrassment; he has lost his job and there is no way he will even get it back even if he were to beg for it like that. I know that there is no way for him to get another job in this city.” “He has made himself a fool, I don't blame him too. There is no way I would have known that the lad over there played an important part in this ho

    Keith and Jacqueline were walking together to the office. Keith was trying to hide the fact that he was filled with rage at the moment and it was not going to be nice if he was to explode. “I am sorry sir; I didn't know you would arrive here this early.” Jacqueline was still apologizing to Keith; he was not about to make sure that nothing would make Keith angry. “I am not mad at you Jacquline; I know you didn't know that I would be here at any time now so there is no way you would have thought that there would be a fight and it would cost you an employee.” Keith was a bit serious; he was not sure that there was any explanation for what he had faced earlier. “Marx was meant to be here; I don't know why he is not here and why he is absent.” Keith was still angry that he didn't meet his guards there nor did he see his closest ally, Marx. “Sir Marx would have been here but there were some unforeseen circumstances he needed to make sure that there would be nothing that would irritate

    “I have checked everyone but the rat still keeps himself hidden, I don't know how he was able to keep himself hidden from us for long.” Marx sat down, he knew that there was no way he would be able to get things if he didn't find a way to get the culprit. “Strange, then it means that the person is amongst our ranks and he has been hiding from us. But how is possible that they would cause an accident that almost killed you three years ago.” Jacquline was not even clear on wh would think of trying to kill Keith. “Clearly whoever did it wanted to remove our master from his throne and they were trying to kill him to make sure their plan didnt fail.” Marx was looking at the table trying to make sense of the entire thing but it was still not clear to him how it happened under their watch. Keith dropped his glass on the table, he looked at the two men and he had something to say but he di not know how he was going to say it without causing a bit of confusion for them. “I know this is goi

    Elenaor got home to her parents house that night, Jared was too angry to even think of walking in with her. “Are you not coming in? At least to have a drink or two,” she was looking at Jared but it was like he didn't even want to talk to her. “I didn't tell you I was thristy? I want to get back home to my father and I want to do it as soon as possible so please if you don't mind I need you to get down.” Jared was still angry with everything that happened to him, he was not even trying to hide it from Eleanor. Eleanor didn't say another word but she got down from the car and began entering the Kendrick Mansion, everyone there was surprised to see her. “You were meant to be there till morning or even three days like the both of you always do. So why are you back so early?” Sandra looked at Eleanor as she tried to take a seat, Elenaor didn't reply, rather she was still trying to understand what it was she saw unravelling at the Hotel. “El?

    Keith was trying to make sure that he didn't stay long inside the room and he was sure that spending a whole day inside a locked room would make him look terrible. “I hate doing this but I have to go around the city to see if I will find anything that would make me even think of anything else.” Keith got up and walked over to the wardrobe that Jacqueline prepared for him. He opened it and spotted a plain black shirt with a pair of trousers, they were all in the highest class of things and he knew that there was no way Jacqueline would want him to wear anything below class. ‘That's right, I left all my clothes back at Eleanor's house and there is no way I am going back there to take them. I might as well jump into the ocean and let the fishes eat me.’ Keith picked a cloth out of the varieties of clothes in the wardrobe, he didn't know what else he would do but he was going to be roaming around the city till he found something that would make him forget that he had his divorce to th

    “Well for starters all you need is a good name out there to make sure you don't lose more customers. You make one heck of a cocktail to be worried that you will lose anything if you keep trying,” Keith took the last sip from the cup, and he looked at Wally who was trying to keep the bad thoughts out of his head. He looked at Keith and he noticed that there was something different about Keith, but he didn't know what it was that made him feel like he was somehow a bit different. “You know what I think you are right but who in the world would want to invest in this hell hole, I know you don't have anything to do but talk to me.” Wally stood up to walk over to the back, he was not happy and it was showing all over him. “I know how you feel but don't worry Wally, soon you will be back to your old self and you will keep serving up all this good cocktail like there is nothing else for you to do.” Keith wanted to make sure that Wally didn’t leave the bar to close down so he was going to

    Keith was not happy that someone was trying to hold him like he was some kind of dog, “I am asking you politely to leave me alone and you think you can just hold me like you are my superior?” “Listen, I will not hold back when I am trying to say anything to you. But I will tell you this there is no way you are going to walk out of here without taking a beating if you resist following me.” The man sounded like he was going to be sure to beat Keith up if he was going to resist. While all this was going on Lucas noticed that Keith was being held by a man that he didn't know and it was clear that Keith was not happy about it one bit. He opened the door to the car and got down, he was about to make sure everything was okay with Keith and nothing was going on.“What are you doing to him? Leave him alone,” Lucas was not about to stand around and watch them hold Keith like he was nothing, but it would also be a problem for him if he talked to them like that. He knew there was no way Keith w

    Keith reached the hotel and he was still confused about the whole thing that had happened earlier, it was strange to him but he was still not going to let it bother him like that. "Who in the world would send for people to come and pick me up like I am a child?” Keith got out of the car, he was not still thinking straight. He wanted to know who it was that would even think of trying to come to him like that. “Sir, do you need me to help you with any other thing?” Lucas asked as Keith stepped down from the car, he noticed that his boss was a bit puzzled but it was like he was still trying to put the pieces together. The moment Lucas called Keith it was like he snapped out of a trance. “No Lucas, you can go get some rest. You did well today.” Keith had a smile on his face, it was like he was trying to make sure that Lucas didn't feel bad but he also wanted to make sure that he didn't think a lot about what had happened earlier. “Okay sir,” Lucas bowed his head a bit before he drove

I didn’t know what was going on but I looked up to see Susan standing close to me. I was shocked to see her looking at me like that.“Is there anything wrong?” I asked her as I got up to my feet, I was trying to make sure that she was okay and nothing happened to make her look like she had seen a horror movie character.“No, I wanted to talk to you I could lie down anymore.” She said as she sat beside me, it was like she was trying to get a friend out of it all. I didn’t want it to look like I was not trying to talk to her.“Okay,” I shifted a bit for her to sit down and tell what it was that was bothering her. I didn’t know what it would be that was making her feel uneasy.She sat down and by the looks of things she was quiet, it seemed like something had happened to make her even think of coming close to me.

    It took me an hour to kill the zombies that covered the fourth floor, it was like they were weaker than the other zombies I had faced but it was not that. I had gotten stronger and I knew I was only going to get stronger than this if I was to keep moving.‘If I can go faster now, why don’t I go check out the office and know if I will find anyone still alive there.’ I was thinking of trying to go see if there were any survivors up on the seventh floor, knowing that I could move at speeds faster than what I would normally move at. It was going to be ideal for me to go check if I would see anyone there.I turned to the stairs and ran up, every corner leading upstairs was filled with zombies and there was no telling if there was going to be anyone still alive after all that had happened there.I got to the seventh floor and it was a mess, all the desks were turned upside down. I didn’t know what it was that would even make me think that there would be a survivor.“There is no one here, th

    Darius put on his clothes and began making his way out of the hospital, he was going to find where he would find a dungeon to raid. He was not going to stand there and watch his sister stay in pain. ‘Finding a dungeon is going to be hard work, I need to make sure that nothing is going to hold me back.’ Darius looked at his hands, he paused when he realized that he didn't even have a simple weapon that he would be able to use to protect himself. He was not going to be able to do anything if he didn't have a weapon to even think of fighting back. ‘I don't even have a mere dagger to fight with what am I going to do?!’ Darius was panicking inside his head, he was not sure what he was going to do and he was looking around to see what he was going to be able to find but there was nothing there. Darius was lost in confusion when the screen came up, it was right in front of him. ‘Notice, head to the dungeon that appeared in the East side of the city where you will face your next task an

It changed his physique and everything about him, he had turned to a different human entirely. He had followed all the instructions and noticed that he had turned into a different warrior, Darius had reached a level of power that he was even thinking of reaching without the system. “Hey, have you seen that guy in the seventh ward?” One of the nurses whispered to another nurse, her face was flushed and bright red. “Yes, I thought he was some scrawny-looking guy but he has been exercising and it seems to be working.

    Darius was filled with fear. He looked around to see that he was in a dungeon filled with Skeleton Warriors who could end him. “What in the world is going on here?!” Darius avoided all the attacks coming his way, but he was not sure how he would be able to block every attack. Darius kept running. He dodged the skeleton warriors' attacks and noticed that they were trying to hit him down. ‘Wait a minute, I don’t know how it was possible to get here. Is it because I ignored the screen?’ Darius looked at the warriors, he dodged another swing from a warrior. Darius looked down to see a skeletal blade by the side, he didn't know what he was going to do but the screen left a message. It told him to make sure he survived. “Here goes nothing!” Darius picked up the blade and tried to block the warrior's blade, he noticed that once his blade hit theirs it shattered it. He was shocked that there was something that he could do with a blade. ‘What in the world is going on?’ Darius was shocke

    The dungeon raid was one of the worst in history. Hank had to report it as unsuccessful, and the Department of Raids wrote it down as a fluke. “Why in the world is something like this happening? I thought we had checked that Dungeon and it was recorded as a C-ranked Dungeon. It was not meant to be an uncharted dungeon and from the looks of things the surviving members had a story to tell.” One of the supervisors wanted to know what had happened there but the message he got from Hank. “Yeah, but he went back and he found out that there was one more survivor, but he was unconscious. What's more surprising is that Hank knew that there was no way he would survive, he said he had a hunch about the boy before he went back to check on him.” The other supervisors said as he looked at the report that Hank brought to him. “What is more shocking is the fact that he said that the boy was mutilated in front of him and there was no way he would be able to survive the wounds but oddly it was clea

    Everyone was filled with fear the moment they saw what was happening in the dungeon, they were not sure what they were going to see next but it was clear to them that they were not in a C-ranked dungeon and they were in something greater than that. “Stay together, the last thing I want is to lose anyone out of fear or anything like that. So please don't falter and stay close to each other.” Hank was giving orders to make sure that there was no way for him to lose any of his squad members. Darius was filled with fear but he clung close to the team, they had seen the writing on the altar that said prove you are worthy. But then no one understood what they were going to be facing in the dungeon. “How on earth did they mark an Uncharted as a C-ranked dungeon?! We might be in a bloody S-ranked dungeon.” Jean spoke up, he was scared to his witts. Darius could see that everything he had said earlier was different now and he was scared for his life. “I have a daughter and son out there. I
