Rise Of The World's Overlord 214. Be Discreet.
Shifting his attention to Alaric who was seated at the corner of the hall, he couldn't help but to sigh. It seems like he was obvious of the chaos he had created. Sitting calmly like nothing was going on was Alaric whose head was running haywire with different ideas at the same time. He had to wriggle himself out of the mess before he became too late but it seemed nothing could be done about it. When he raised his head, he locked eyes with Liam who was staring but instead of acting like he hadn't seen him, he waved at him, acting like all was well. Taking a deep breath, Liam returned his attention to the stakeholders who had resumed creating a mess. “Instead of throwing him out of the company, I suggest we put him on probation for a few months, by then everything would be resolved.” Liam suggested and at once he was faced with opposition. “Are you thinking?” The yells from all over the room shook the foundation of the building. Liam tried to stop the noise but when he couldn't

A few hours later, Liam decided to see Alaric at the police station where he was locked up in the holding cell. Immediately when Alaric saw him, he walked up to the rods, grasping them like his whole life depended on it. “I had no idea you would come see me here.” He chuckled. “Alaric, this is not funny. You're in deep shit at the moment and the least you can do is to try and wriggle yourself out.” He chided. “Have you found Giovanni, I told you he is the one behind the viral spread of the power tripping video. He said, ignoring his words. “I haven't. I will try tracking him down if he exists though.” “Oh, cut that crap.” He snapped rolling his eyes at him. “You think I didn't find out what happened that night?” He huffed. Rolling his eyes, he gestured to Liam to move an inch closer which he did, “Under your authority, he was switched and changed with the skeleton of a human after infusing his DNA into the bones.” He whispered. Pulling away from him, he began to hit his palm l
Rise Of The World's Overlord 216. No Unity.
When Liam got to the police station to pick Alaric up on his request, he saw Carlton once again and the only thing he could make out of the scenario was that he was the brain behind it. “Here you are.” Alaric chuckled, walking up to him with a grin on his face. “You don't look pleased.” He mouthed, patting his back. “I'm still trying to wrap my head…” He was still speaking when Alaric hushed him, swirling him in Carlton's direction. “I always go for the best, you know.” He laughed, Liam joining him with an uneasy tone. “I will be on my way now.” Carlton said, “Please stay away from trouble, lie low otherwise…” “Don't lecture me. You were able to pull this off because I mounted pressure on you. For the records, I was the one who freed myself and not the other way around.” Alaric snarled. Shifting his attention to Liam, he squeezed his shoulder, “What about a drink?” “Yeah.” Liam had no choice but to give in. Sitting beside Alaric in the bar, Liam was apprehensive. He kept runni
Rise Of The World's Overlord 217. Congratulations...
A few months later… Standing behind the large mirror in his bedroom, Liam was doing his buttons while Naya went about searching for the perfect tie for him. They were going for an occasion together. It was a get together feast, organized by AI technology to celebrate the recent ground breaking project and worldwide recognition. Just then, Rose barged into his bedroom without bothering to knock. With her hands across her chest and her brows knotted in a frown, she pulled her feet towards his bed, plopping on the edge. “What is the problem?” Naya and Liam asked in unison, both of them rushing to her side. “I'm not in support of this.” She muttered, making Liam roll his eyes. They had been going on this matter back and forth for a while now, yet she was still acting dogmatic. “Come on Rose, we were invited and declining with no valid reason is rude.” “You're the one thinking it's not a valid reason.” She snapped, her hands now resting on her hips. Pulling herself up, she walked
Rise Of The World's Overlord 218. Making You A Promise.
For a minute, no one made a reaction as they all had their attention on Alaric who was seething in anger. Grabbing Liam's award, he was about to smash it against the floor when Giovanni held his hand from behind. “Get off me.” He yelled, trying to shake him off but his grip was tight. “Don't do anything stupid.” He snapped, snatching the award from him and then pushing him backwards. “Here you go.” He handed the plaque back to Liam before returning his gaze to Alaric who was still seething. Soon there were murmurs and whispers all over. Everyone wanted to speak and at the same time get to the root of what had happened. Where she sat, Madam Aurelia was already having a panic attack. Alaric’s sudden behavior met only one thing and that was he was livid. “I wonder what he is going to do now.” She muttered, blaming herself for not stopping them when they suggested giving Liam an award. “Please calm down.” Mr. Jones said, trying to calm her down but it was of no use. “He is going
Rise Of The World's Overlord 219. You Have To Do Something!
A few days later… Sitting on a chair which he had pulled close to her bed, Liam was resting his head on the bed with Rose’s hand resting on his back. He has placed it that way to feel her warmth. After the incident, she had been in a coma with no signs of waking up anytime soon. Even the doctors were lost and confused, they had no words to say whenever Liam comforted them with his numerous questions. Madam Aurelia and Naya had tried their best to make him leave the hospital but all their efforts had been futile. “Are you going to sit here doing nothing?” Rose's voice rang across the room and at once Liam sat up.For a moment, he left his gaze on Rose who was sleeping peacefully before he began to dart his eyes around as he wondered who had spoken. He was still trying to decide who exactly had spoken when Rose grabbed his arm to aid her sit up. Surprised, Liam's mouth dropped open as he stared at her in shock, it was like he was dreaming. Rolling her eyes, Rose propped herself u
Rise Of The World's Overlord 220. I Won't Stop...
Walking side by side with Madam Aurelia, Liam had his hands folded behind his back.Since he arrived a few minutes ago, there had not been any word exchange between them as both were lost in their separate words. While Liam was itching to inform his mother about his resolve to take Alaric down, Madam Aurelia was contemplating on if she should spill her intention or not. “Mother.” Liam broke the silence after a while, causing her to halt. “What's on your mind?” She crackled, her voice breaking from the grief she was carrying. “Why do you keep protecting Alaric? He is a threat to us, we should get rid of him as soon as possible.” Holding her shoulder, he peered into her eyes and with a shaky voice, he said, “I almost lost my sister and the only thing that could be done was probation?” He huffed, his eyes burning with tears. “My hands are tied.” She muttered, trying to break away from his grip but he wouldn't let her. “Liam, let's stop this already. With the way things are going, w
Rise Of The World's Overlord 221. This is unbelievable.
After ending the call with his mother, Liam raised his head only to lock eyes with Alaric who had been staring at him. Smirking, he waved to get his attention. “Come up.” He called out to him, the smile on his face never leaving even for once. Trying to subdue his anger, Liam clenched his fist by his side and then began to walk towards the elevator, bumping into enraged staff. The moment he got into Alaric's office, he slammed the door shut, making the whole building shake in response. “What do you think you are doing?” He yelled, anger welling up in his veins. He took all his will power for him to restrict himself from lunging at him. “The game is over, Madam Aurelia must have said that to you.” He laughed, hitting his palms together. Swelling the content of his glass in his hand, he twirled his head to the side, a large smile on his face. “You think everything happened naturally? No way! Before now, I had already laid out a step by step plan on how to accomplish my goals.” H
