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
{Task initiated}{Destination- Elorida west zone Airport}}[Delta Central Bank; The account number ending with xxxx890 has been credited with an amount of 20,00,000/-] Checking his phone and the system screen for the task destination, Leo wondered what he is going to do in that airport.Leo had never been to an airport before. So he hesitatingly called his driver to take him to the airport.With his new talent, he could just run to the place in seconds but will a man prefer to run when his bank had just informed him that his account had been credited with two million?That money was itching his hands to get spent, anyway.After a smooth drive, his driver opened the car door, letting him know that they had reached the airport."Sir, we are here" Leo opened his eyes and stepped out of that car. Taking a deep breath, he saw the flourishing banner welcoming him to a place where he never stepped in and never thought that he would step. The bustling crowds, the towering metal birds on the
Leo's extraordinary holiday on Paradise Island had been a dream come true. The azure waters, the swaying palm trees, and the luxurious resort were everything he had never imagined and even more. He was relishing every moment, exploring the island's beauty and embracing the relaxation that came with being in such a paradise. Everything was going smoothly when suddenly a long-lost friend appeared before him, Lara.She was preparing to give Leo a hard time unknown of the fact that this young man is not the same old timid boy in her school. He is now a superhero, with so many supernatural powers and has his pockets loaded with money that she could never even imagine.Giving her the satisfaction she needed, Leo agreed to her proposal to have lunch with her.Though she was his classmate from high school, they hadn't been close in school.But Leo remembered her as someone who had a knack for cutting remarks and a penchant for flaunting her social status and bullying poor students for no rea
As they perused the lavish menu, Lara's mind schemed. She knew Leo's financial situation all too well, his modest job and humble lifestyle. Tonight was her chance to humiliate him in front of everyone, especially after she had boasted about treating him to the finest meal in the resort. Their orders arrived, the chef's special, each dish more exquisite than the last. The table was adorned with decadence, but so was Lara's devious intent. She held her breath as the moment approached. "Oh, come on Leo, we were school friends, and you are making me pay for your lunch...! You are such a filthy bastard"Leo slammed the table and stood up, "You haven't changed a bit Lara, once a gold digger stays a gold digger" As the waiter cleared their plates, Leo casually reached into his pocket and pulled out a platinum credit card, the kind that was reserved for the elite. Lara's eyes widened in disbelief. Her friends dropped their jaws in shock. They were sure that Lara told them that this guy
Intrigued by the lavishness of the private island mansion, Leo's mind was a whirlwind of thoughts as he stepped out of the cab. However, all reasoning ceased when he laid eyes on the grand edifice that stood before him. His heart skipped a beat, leaving him utterly stunned. For a while, he forgot to close his dropped jaw.That island was more than just what is called beautiful.It was astonishing and can make anyone in awe. But the mansion before him had left behind even the most beautiful Royal forts in terms of architecture.In truth, Leo wasn't entirely sure of his purpose for being there but he was content that he was able to explore such an elegant masterpiece. A well-dressed man approached him, but instead of being the person Leo was supposed to meet, the man introduced himself as the mansion's butler. A luxurious three-piece suit for a butler, so what could he expect the owner might be adorning?With the butler's guidance, Leo entered the mansion's foyer, his eyes widening i
Amid Leo's shock, the old woman's gaze remained distant, as if her memories were playing out before her in real time. Her words hung heavy in the air, shrouded in mystery and sorrow. Surprised by what he just heard, Leo jolted asking her."Another life... How many had been killed already?" Leo's voice was tinged with disbelief, his heart racing as he tried to make sense of the woman's cryptic words. The old woman's transparent form seemed to waver for a moment as if struggling to convey the weight of her story. She turned her gaze back to Leo, her eyes now filled with determination. "They killed eight of the office accountants that had discovered their plans" Leo gaped shockingly. "Listen closely, young man. My name was Evelyn, and I am the owner of this mansion. That manager handled financial matters, managing the estate's accounts and ensuring its prosperity. I trusted him but my trust was betrayed by the very man whom I entrusted with this responsibility." Leo leaned in, capti
