(We're getting closer guys. Something unexpected will happen. My book is not easy to predict, is it? We'll find out soon)
“Mr. Smith,” Smith stopped on his track and turned back as he heard a familiar voice from behind. It was Mrs. Evelyn's voice. She was the vice chancellor of the college. He turned to her and greeted her lightly. She responded with a soft smile on her face. “You must be on your way to the Great Beyond library,” she demanded and he nodded his head gently. A flicker of greediness flashed in the depth of her eyes and disappeared like it never appeared but he noticed it. He wasn't moved by it. He knew that everyone in the college who knew how great the Great Beyond library was, would do anything to get there. Not even the chancellor or higher ups of the college had access to the Great Beyond library. But now, a young man like him, who won the first position, was given the keys to the Great Beyond library. It was natural that many people would be envious of him. However, he stayed focused. “Yes, that's right. I'm on my way to the Great Beyond library,” he said and she nodded her hea
By the time Smith got home, everywhere was dark and silent. Except for the few policemen who were on patrol and some pedestrians, no one was outside. The estate was quiet and peaceful. Smith laughed without restraint as he brought out the two items or relics that he obtained from the Great Beyond library. He couldn't get enough of it. Although he was yet to fully grasp what the two ancient relics meant, he knew it was extraordinary relics that different top 1 tier households would go all out to have. “What are you really?” He muttered in a low tone as he stared at the green bead that was glowing dimly. The bead felt so extraordinary and enchanting that he felt his soul trapped by it.Although there were other relics he could take from the Great Beyond library, he felt an immeasurable bond with the green bead with just a glance so he took it without hesitation. “That's right. I need to study this book too,” he said and rushed into his room. He brought out his laptop from the nights
“You fell for my trap now, didn't you?” She asked and chuckled softly with a cold look on her face. She took a deep breath and moved around the room as she remembered what she came there for. She was there for the items that he obtained from the Great Beyond library that even the higher ups of the college didn't have access to. She left the sitting room after confirming that Smith had fallen asleep and wouldn't wake up soon. She entered his room and searched everywhere but she couldn't find anything special apart from some valuable items she dared not steal. According to what she heard, items from the Great Beyond library were extraordinary and not something that a casual item could compare to. She had a disdainful look on her face when she remembered how she lost her chance of entering the Great Beyond library because of Smith. Although she knew Damon would not allow her to win the first competition easily, she couldn't help but feel resentful toward Smith. Smith's inmate abil
“Why does he want to see me?” He asked himself in a low tone and shook his head with a sigh. He stood up from the chair and walked into his room feeling lightheaded. He couldn't tell why he was feeling this way. Could it be that tea? He ignored the feeling. He couldn't tell how he slept off. He slept in the sitting room overnight. Although he had no idea what happened to him had something to do with Linda, he knew it wasn't something simple that happened to him. He entered the bathroom after pulling off his clothes to the floor. He felt at ease and the fuzzy feelings he felt earlier disappeared when he shoved himself inside the bathtub which was filled with cold water. He came out of the bathroom with water dripping from his body. He walked toward the wardrobe and pulled it open then brought out a simple outfit. He didn't bother about the cultivation book because he had no use of it at the moment. He had memorized every single page of the book so he had no reason to bring it out.
“Who dares cause trouble in my apartment? The person must be courting death,” Mr. Han snorted coldly and dropped the remote that was in his hand on the table. He was extremely angry at the person that dared bang the door to his apartment in such a way. If it was possible, he wouldn't hesitate killing or crippling the person at that instant. A cold auras exuded from his body and the room shook slightly as he stood up from the chair and walked toward the door.Dread and shock expression could be visible in his eyes when he opened the door and saw the person who was standing before his house.“What! Why are you so surprised to see me, Mr. Han?” Smith asked with a knowing look on his face.To Smith, he thought the man was scared of him because he had a clue that the disappearance of the ancient items he obtained from the Great Beyond library had something to do with him.Naturally, the man wasn't scared of Smith. If not that he would be scared of the mysterious powerhouse that could be
“Who could it be?” For the past few minutes that Smith stood alone in a lonely path that was the only question that has been bothering him. He couldn't tell who the person was no matter how he racked his brain. Although many people in his college were aware that he obtained two items from the Great Beyond library, none of them knew his apartment. Even if they know, they wouldn't dare take any action considering the person that was behind him. The Chief, Mr. Frank, who owned the Great Beyond library, was indeed not someone ordinary. Unless necessary or capable, no one would dare to attack him indirectly or directly. Then who could do it? A cold gleam flashed in the depth of Smith's eyes as a thought crossed his mind. Could it be the top 3 genius in the college, Linda? As strange and mysterious it may seem, he felt the disappearance of those two ancient items had something to do with her. It would be indeed strange if no one coveted those ancient items in his possession. Just like t
“Ava? Are you aware of what you're talking about?” Smith asked in a cold tone. His handsome face was filled with anger and unwillingness. He was not willing to believe that Ava would stoop so low to not only convert the ancient items in his possession but also dare to send someone to steal it from his possession. Perhaps he would have been shocked and heartbroken in the past, he felt indifferent and emotionless after finding out that she was responsible for the disappearance of those two ancient items but he wasn't. Coupled with the life experience he had in the past and the lessons he'd obtained from the cultivation book, he wasn't really surprised. The heart of man is dark and hard to predict. Who could have believed that she could do such a thing to him? Although she was a member of Rodriguez, she could be considered as his friend due to the time they spent in the past but it seemed she took it for granted. Perhaps he made the right decision by cutting every tie that he had w
Mr. Han, who was having a good time watching an interesting movie, was interrupted by the sound of his phone.He picked the phone up with an annoyed look on his face. His experience turned glum and pale when he saw who was calling him. It was Damon's grandfather. His hand trembled as he held the phone, contemplating whether to pick the call or not. He knew Damon wasn't going to let the matter die down easily. He didn't know what he could do anymore. He was rendered helpless and speechless because he knew it was regarding the incident that happened at the event of the Great College's quiz competition. He took a deep breath and swiped the button on his phone then his phone close to his ears. “Were you planning to ignore my call, Little Han?” An arrogant and sonorous voice sounded out from the other side of the phone and his heart sank. “No, Sir. I dare not…” his voice trembled in fear. “You don't need to be like that. Explain everything that happened there to me in detail,” the m
