"Ladies and gentlemen, there has been a slight change of plan." The host suddenly says, making everyone go rowdy as they wonder what has happened to make him shout like that.With a pale face, the host who had a gentleman's aura a moment ago suddenly looked like someone whose soul had been tormented and said, "Con- congratulations to Mr Rex for winning this bid. Our boss, Miss Silvia Medici, the daughter of the patriarch of the Medici clan and fiancée of Mr Grey Lucas, the heir to the Lucas family of Great Britain has officially told me to announce that the Wittelsbach-Graff Diamond ring which you won for the sum of 34.3 billion dollars will be given to you for free as a gift from her and her man."Rex: "..."One Eye: "..."The attendees: "..."Everyone was shocked to the core!No one expected it!"T-this must be a stunt pull by those two families right?"One of the people in the regular section couldn't help but ask. Why wouldn't he after witnessing such action?A bidding war which r
"Oh, sorry I mean, Rex will handle it, I can't handle such, can I?" One Eye says as she gives Rex a look filled with, 'You can handle it right?'Rex did not notice as his attention was grabbed by the silhouettes emerging from the top of the mountain walking down."Guard, be with this lady while I go deal with them, if anything goes wrong, escape with her and try getting in contact with the guards or public securities nearby." Rex suddenly ordered as he took off his white sleek suit despite the cold."Boss!," the guard's eyes widen in shock, "That is my duty. What will the patriarch say when he discovers I left you in the hands of some unknown people? I have to protect you! The network in this mountain has been jammed and...""That is an order from me, guard, I have my reason as those people ain't some people you can easily handle.""..."Hearing those declarations from Rex made the guard feel his eyes turn teary, he thought Rex did not want him to die in vain that was why he said he s
After experiencing mutation from the scientific research conducted by the late Davis and his crew. Rex, who has grown stronger than he used to be thought he was at the top of the food chain.It never crossed his mind that another type of power which he only read in fantasy novels truly existed in the real world! What are cultivators?These are people capable of harnessing the power of nature or inner energy which allows them to keep growing stronger than ever and even be able to flatten the surface of a continent with their palms.Now, knowing he was about to face such inhumane people, Rex began doubting his instincts to fight them._It is too late to retreat. I have to fight._ He thought, failing to notice that he had slipped the diamond ring into his middle finger._I can't keep standing here or else when he strikes with the thunder, I wouldn't be able to dodge due to One Eye and the rest being in the back of the car._With such thought, he stomped his foot on the floor, propellin
_TO THE INHERITOR OF THE ROYAL ECLIPTIC RING! THIS KNOWLEDGE IS YOUR GIFT, CHERISH IT AND USE IT TO PROTECT YOURSELF IF POSSIBLE GO INTO THE LOST LAND AND REVIVE OUR FAMILY!_Fist martial arts!Footwork techniques!Palm strike!Leg strike and sword skills!Every knowledge he never knew of rushed into his head within that one second which felt like a year to him. Not only did they rush into his head but they merged with him, making him feel like he had already practised those techniques a million times making him an expert.Woooosh"Attack him! He is inheriting the power of the eclipse ring!" The chubby man who got his teeth broken yelled as he waved his hand, making a sword appear, coating it with his QI before slashing towards Rex.The other two pulled out their triumph card and struck too, making thousands of lighting the size of a newborn baby arm descend on Rex with flame which was almost turning into liquid pouring towards Rex.Meanwhile, the victim who was Rex did not move as he
Author's Note: to those who do not remember Veronica Dante, she is the lady who spit on him back then in the hospital (chap 4-7)****Rex has totally forgotten about Veronica Dante, back when he was planning on embarking on the journey, he handed his sister over to Jeffrey with some large amount of money which was to be given to Veronica if she ever shows up which she never did.He never expected the woman who helped him with Intel to be her, Veronica Dante. Not only that, but it seems like she has some unnatural powers which allow her to change her looks.Right now wasn't the moment to question her as Rex suddenly felt the mountain trembling.Looking up, his expression hardens. 60 meters above, the snow which has gathered on top of the mountain for decades seems to be slowly rolling down, slowly, its speed seems to be increasing."Ah, we are gonna die here today? I am still a virgin." Veronica muttered with a sad look, it was like the man pressing her neck wasn't even a threat to he
"..."Hearing the Question made Veronica go silent for a while as she lifted her head, gazing at the moon for a while before sighing, "You want to know?" She asked, looking at Rex right through the eyes."Yes," Rex answered."Okay then, let us have a seat. It will be a long story." She answered.****There have been rumours among the bigger families about the reason why the Lathwyn family's status as the richest family has not been surpassed for generations despite rich and talented people rising from other families.The rumours have been about the Dante family. A family which deals with Intel and is the boss of the underground businesses in Greenland country. Most people suspect that the Dante family are more like the left hand of the Lathwyn as they are there to do their dirty work of eradicating or setting others up which makes the Lathwyn family remain clean as they did not need to get their hands dirty doing the dirty work.But the truth wasn't far from it, the Dante family can
“What you fear will hunt you."There had been times when such a saying turned true and Rex wished what he was currently hearing wasn't true. He dreads the thought of really losing his childhood memories. If this was true then why hasn't Oliver, Maxwell or anyone ever told him even when they are engaged in heated arguments when the emotions take control?Surely as teens, they wouldn't have been able to control themselves right?Rex thought as he looked at Veronica.The moon shone bright on her, giving her a fairy like look, a stark contrast to her previous arrogant look. _Why do I suddenly find her attractive? No, this must be a charm._ Rex shook his head as he looked sideward, falling to the spot where Veronica was also sneakily peeking at him while blushing like a teenage girl lost in her sea of fantasyland."Finally, I caught the biggest rabbit." Right then, the guard who went in search of wood, leaving them almost freezing to death finally arrived with some wood in his left han
