As James effortlessly smacked his third chance to go out, Leo panicked to find another way.All he could do was wait for a better option. And soon that option arrived in the form of Luke, one of his colleagues.The moment Leo saw Luke, he rushed to him and asked him to take care of the cafe.Reading his mind, Leo promised him his favorite Americano coffee.Hmming for a while, Luke agreed and Leo instantly slid away.As walking out he encountered a homeless man seeking shelter from the scorching sun and found him shivering while holding a current pillar.Leo's mind paced, guessing that the man might have been struck by an electric current, Leo ran towards him. Looking for help, Leo found a wooden log and picked it up.As the only option, Leo hit the young man from behind, and that man stumbled forward and fell to the ground."What the heck...!" he yelled jolting Leo.That man was fine in fact, he was perfect with no signs of burnt or suffering.Leo confused and gaped at him while the
Leo's heart swelled with joy as he realized the potential this power held. He envisioned how it could magnify his efforts to complete his tasks. "This is amazing...! I feel like a superhero..." he sizzled excitedly when he almost reached the top of the cafe building.With his newfound ability, he felt he could reach even the most inaccessible places. He pulled his hands to see if anything was special about his hands so that he was able to stick his palm to the wall, like having some kind of sticky fluid secretion or any different texture growth. But there wasn't anything like that and he didn't bother about it either. With great enthusiasm, Leo embarked on his first journey like a superhero from one building to another. But what he didn't notice was those eyes on him, suddenly, a group of street dogs surrounded the building and started barking and making a commotion. Though it was dark, those special eyes are efficient in seeing something crawling up, anyway.Leo hid himself on th
Unbeknownst to Leo, his acts of flowing money like water hadn't gone unnoticed. In the shadows of the city, a powerful mafia gang had been closely observing Leo's spending habits. To them, it seemed like he was a wealthy individual with immense resources at his disposal. The gang saw an opportunity, an opportunity to extort money from what they believed to be a wealthy individual. They devised a plan to approach Leo to demand a hefty sum of money, thinking he wouldn't hesitate to comply. And finally on this day, as Leo left The Diamond Wars, he was approached by a group of intimidating-looking individuals. Their suits and cold, calculating eyes revealed their affiliation with the underground world. As they made him intoxicated, Leo was dragged into a shabby, small hut.When Leo regained consciousness, he found himself in a dimly lit, unfamiliar room. His hands were bound, and he felt a throbbing headache from the chloroform's aftereffects. Panic surged through him as he realized t
Summoning all the courage he had, Leo climbed the walls of the hut as fast as possible and ventured into the surrounding woods from the cracked roof, making sure to stay hidden from any prying eyes. But to his surprise, all those goons ran away while he was sleeping.Leo navigated through the wilderness, relying on his wits and instincts to stay one step ahead of the gang if they come to search for him. He knew that he needed help, and he also realized that he couldn't finish his task now but still his instinct restricted him to give up.He keeps on thinking about the task, and what can he do to help complete the task while his legs never once stopped, not even for a second.However, he heard some noises from nearby and a little hope lit his heart.Eventually, he reached a small village where he found very few poor people. His hands trembled as he slid his phone out of his pocket. Hunger, panic, and the tension of the task had weighed heavy upon him all at once. He peeped at his ph
It was a huge thing that an apple was sold for two million dollars, and of course, the media is always curious about news like this. Hence, on the same day, the media picked up on this story, and that mute man was invited to share his journey on various platforms, spreading his experience of kindness and altruism to a wider audience. Everyone was busy speculating the whereabouts of the generous helper, but no one was able to do so. Leo already doubted all this was happening and made sure to cover himself when he went to that man. Looking at the sensational news on his tabloid, James excitedly made comments, and all his colleagues joined the club. Through it all, Leo remained humble and grounded. But Leo froze as he heard James mention that the name of the man who bought the apple for two million dollars had been exposed. "Hey, look, this news has his name..." The room fell silent, and all eyes were on James and his tabloid, waiting for a response. Leo's heart raced, and he tried to
Leo's footsteps reached through the alley as he made his way chasing behind the man. The streets were annoyingly busy, but he could easily follow that man because of his extraordinary hearing capacity. As he turned a corner, he saw that man sitting on the ground, his hands on his forehead and shaking, and his eyes filled with anguish.There was something wrong with this man which made Leo move further. Curiosity getting the better of him, Leo approached cautiously. That man seemed lost in his own thoughts, his disheveled appearance suggesting he had been through a difficult time. "I... I...did..that..." he stammered, "I killed her...! I didn't mean it...!" Concerned, Leo asked gently, "Hey, are you okay?"Startled, the man looked up, his eyes red and swollen from crying. "No...!" he stammered again, "Okay? No, I'm not okay," he choked out, his voice trembling. "It's...a...all...my fault, you know? She's gone" he cried a lot, "She's gone because of me... I killed her...! I will ki
As Leo sat in a cafe, all his colleagues left the cafe one after the other, he noticed a couple walking in engrossed in deep conversation. It was already closing time but still Leo let them in. Though he felt something different about the couple, he ignored it completely and stride near them to take their orders. The woman had a whitish light, an aura of warmth and love surrounding her, while the man had a faint shadow of sorrow and blackness enveloping him. Leo's curiosity was piqued, and he couldn't resist the urge to approach them."Excuse me, how may I help you?" Leo said hesitantly to take the order, but the couple stared at him surprisingly.Feeling it hard to take, Leo added, "I hope I'm not intruding, but I couldn't help but notice something unique around you both. Are you aware of these...auras?"The couple exchanged puzzled glances but then smiled kindly at Leo. "Are you an Angel? you can see us?" the woman asked astonished.Leo confused for a while, stood calm, then nodd
Leo suddenly felt a strange sensation, a tingling at the back of his neck, and a gentle pull on his magical senses when he was getting off the stairs. He glanced around, his high-frequency hearing picking up on the faint whisper of voices that seemed to emanate from all around him. "Leonard Conner" Leo was startled hearing his full name and shifted his gaze from his phone screen to the unclear hovering figures in front of him. Floating in the air with just half of their bodies visible. He dropped open his jaw in astonishment, his eyes locked onto judging their ethereal presence. Turning in a slow circle, Leo's eyes widened in amazement and curiosity as he saw a group of translucent figures slowly materializing before him. They were souls, ethereal and shimmering, each one glowing with a faint light that held a mix of sorrow and urgency. There were seven souls in total, and they seemed to form a circle around Leo, their eyes filled with a mixture of hope and desperation. "What in
