Seven days had passed since the Dragon incident, and the citizens had come back to their houses and usual businesses. Many of them didn’t want to go back to the city. They still fear what could happen next, especially since Draco, the leader of the Dragon hasn't been caught yet. Also, Narwak’s actions had left a scar on each of the citizens who saw what he did. They were scared that this kind of incident, or others called it a disaster, could happen again at any moment. Especially since the government didn't catch the perpetrators and didn’t say anything to ensure their safety. The members of the Vipers were the ones tasked with guarding the members of the Dragons in the prison, and in the underground base they made, the Wolves were the ones who hunted the criminals that escaped from the prison because of the Dragons. They have caught almost half of the criminals on the list, and they catch more every day. However, Archris and Lyca had a meeting with the mayor as well as the defense
Jake slowly opened his eyes. He was lying on a wet floor, and he saw a pitch-black sky. He could feel his heart pounding hard, and he could hear screams of pain, agony, and help. He slowly sat up, and his heartbeat became faster and louder.He looked around, but he didn't see anything aside from the non-ending shallow water where he was. However, his shirt and trousers showed no trace of being wet. He rubbed his eyes to make sure he wasn’t only seeing things.He groaned as he stood up. He suddenly felt sharp pain all over his body, and that made him kneel back to the ground.“What happened? What is this place?” he asked himself. “Who brought me here? Did I die already?”Then a powerful cold wind blew, knocking him to the wet ground. Then he flinched when he sensed something behind him.He jolted forward on all fours before turning his head. And what he saw there made him pause for a while.He saw a woman whose body was covered in a long gold satin dress. Her hair was waist-long red, a
“Finally! You’re awake!” Sebastian screamed with a huge smile on his face. He had just entered the office when Jake opened his eyes and sat up. Jake looked at him, and he quickly raised his left brow and removed the smile from his face. “You sounded so happy to see my wake up, Sebastian,” Jake said, smirking. Archris and Karlow then snickered as they stared at Sebastian. Sebastian entered the room and approached Jake’s bed. Then he threw two folders loaded with files onto his lap. “You have lots of pending work to do, Mr. Chairman,” he sarcastically said while looking at Jake. “The board and the major shareholders are asking about your condition, and I guess I could tell them that you got better.” Jake nodded. “And one more thing,” Sebastian said, walking towards the door. “Call Caroline. She freaked out when she learned what happened to you.” Jake turned around and scowled at Sebastian. “Why do you have to tell her?" “Because she’s asking,” Sebastian said before smirking. “And
There were ten fully geared soldiers inside the minister’s office, and they only allowed three of Jake’s bodyguards inside. So he took Sebastian, Jonas, and Gary with him.Jake found it weird, but he didn’t want to argue anymore. He thought of leaving, but he was also curious about what the defense minister would tell him.The minister took two crystal classes and a bottle of brandy from one of his cupboards. He poured brandy into the glasses and put one of them in front of Jake.But Jake just stared at it before glaring back at the man who sat just across him.“I am National Defense Minister Leonardo Zamonte,” the man introduced himself. “Actually, I talked to two of your acquaintances already.”“Acquaintances?” He tilted his head and squinted his eyes.“Their names are Archris and Lyca. I was with your city mayor when that conversation happened.”“But how did you know that they knew me?”The man took a sip of brandy and smiled. “I am not the defense minister for nothing, Mr. Drummon
Jake ordered Archris and Lyca to look for more information about the village that Damascus allegedly destroyed, where a lot of people died. He was a bit suspicious about what the defense minister told him, and he wanted to have his own investigation.He also thought that Damascus was killed in Eldramoria before being sent to his world. But the question that lies in his head is how he died and who killed him.He also told Archris, Lyca, and Karlow about what Narwak told him about the magic spell that Tharanos used before he was sealed and that they should be prepared in case the evil tyrant transmigrated to their current world.Days passed, and the city returned to its normal routine. The lockdown was finally lifted, and people had returned to their normal lives as well. They finished repairing the prisons and jails, and the underground facility the Dragons made finally became a new detention center.The mayor then acknowledged Jake’s effort in helping the people, especially with the s
Jake immediately noticed three expensive sports cars lined up in their garage. He got out of the car with a stern face, along with his bodyguards. And as he walked towards the entrance door, seven men in black suits with golden linings and guns blocked them from entering.“What’s the meaning of this?” He asked the man with mohawk blonde hair. “This is my mansion, so why are you blocking our way?!”But the man didn’t flinch. He stepped in front of Jake and stared him down.“So, you want some trouble, huh?” Jake scoffed, then looked the man in the eyes. And in just seconds, the man started to frown and groan in pain. And slowly, he kneeled on the ground. The six other men pointed their guns at him. But his bodyguards also pointed their guns back at them.“Answer me. Do you want some trouble?” Jake asked again as he pressed the blonde man to the ground.“No. Please. Let me go!"“Are you shouting at me?!” "No," the man said as softly as he could. "Please let me go.”Jake glared at the ma
The police arrested Celeste and his men. She was screaming while being dragged out of the mansion that Jake was a monster. But since the police didn’t see any damage to her and her men, they just shrugged it off and put her and her men behind bars. The next day, Jake had a meeting with his board of directors, and he was happy to know that they had started gaining profits again. Also, more countries started to order their medicine and other products. The inflation had gradually gone down as the officials who were members of the Dragons did their best to influence the prices of primary commodities, which affected the economy in a good way. However, the unemployment rate was still very high. Meanwhile, Draco told the police everything he knew about Anthony Smith, who was already on the wanted list and had a bounty on his head. The forensic department of the city had finished conducting autopsies on the bodies of the mutated supersoldiers. And as expected, they couldn’t really explain
It was midnight. The warden and some officers just finished checking each cell before going back to their posts. The warden sat on his chair and looked at the monitors in front of him, and he stared at the one that showed Draco sleeping on his bed.However, it was only an image. Draco had already manipulated it beforehand.Draco was sitting on the floor, legs crossed, and his eyes closed. He started to cast spells as he concentrated on the small amount of magic energy that Narwak left in him. However, he was having a hard time finding the man.He closed his eyes firmly, and sweat started to form on his forehead. He was already seeing different people and lights. He had been in different places, but he couldn’t find Narwak.“Come on, where are you?” he said as he searched. He even cast another spell, dream-tracking magic, but he couldn’t really find the man who once controlled him.Until he reached a dark and gloomy mountain. He couldn’t tell where it was, but he could feel Nawak’s mag
