Rise Of The World's Overlord 87. "We have come to investigate."
Chapter 87Returning his gaze to the examiners in front of the hall, Liam dug his hand into his hair and then began to tug on it. Blinking his eyes rapidly, he tried to concentrate on the paper in front of him as he gripped his pen tightly but everything in front of him was blur.“We are sorry to interrupt your exams, we got a report that the paper was leaked before the exams and so we have to come investigate.” The team leader said and then nodded. At once, his subordinates who had followed him filed into the hall and then began to search the students. They were so meticulous in their search, making sure to take note of every single thing so they wouldn't miss out. While all these were going on, Liam felt uncomfortable since he had forgotten to search himself properly before the exam. He had been doing this since Lily told him she was going to have a pound of her flesh. A few minutes into the search which only two students were involved in, someone walked into the hall and at on
Rise Of The World's Overlord 88. Lily is in trouble...
Chapter 88At the end of the two hour examination, students refused to leave the hall, they were all talking about the incident that happened a while ago. Everyone had a word to say and didn't want to listen to the other making the hall to be noisy but still, they were all making the same points. Liam remained seated for a while, he wanted to find out what exactly happened from his mates and immediately he grabbed the hint, he rose to leave. “Hey, Liam.” Jake hailed, walking up to him with a little smile on the edge of his lips. Liam had told him the exact statement Lily had said to him a few days ago and so he was happy that it backfired to her so he couldn't keep his excitement back to himself. “She got what she deserves don't you think so?” He asked, nudging Liam who just nodded as several thoughts swirled through his head at the same time. First, it was the look on Lily's face and now she was at the mercy of the panel who will decide her guilt. “Ugh!” He sighed, tossing his
Rise Of The World's Overlord 89. She was doomed!
Chapter 89In order to stop her from doing something stupid, Lily was detained in the school cell which was more like a classroom as investigations were carried out. Several times she had tried to scream out her lungs but even when she parted her lips to perform that action, only air would come out, leaving her frustrated. “This wasn't what I bargained for. I haven't failed before, why am I failing now?” She muttered, darting her eyes around as she tried to keep her heart steady. With beads of perspiration gathered on her forehead, she was breathing heavily as fear coursed through her veins. Rubbing her palms together, she tried to keep still but she just couldn't. The only remedy right now was to rewind everything that had happened but that was just a vivid imagination. With her head now buried in her palms, she muttered, “I should have just slipped the materials into his bag when I arrived earlier. Why did I decide to hold onto it until after the exam so I would raise an alarm.”
Rise Of The World's Overlord 90. "Congratulations"
Chapter 90When they got home, Liam tried to hold Naya back and ask her the one question that had been troubling him. He was wondering how she had figured out that something was wrong at school and how she also knew Lily was involved in it. Pressing his lips tightly together, he kept on staring at her departing figure and when she turned in his direction, he shifted his gaze aside, pretending to be busy on his phone. “I'm in my room, you can call me if you need me.” She said and he nodded in response, not bothering to raise his head in her direction. Smirking, Naya wrapped her hand across her chest and after staring at him for a while she shrugged and then began to climb up the stairs. Even when she got to her door, she still had to look over the railings only to see him still focused on his phone. “He must be revising again.” She muttered and then finally slipped into her room. With a bright smile on her face, she did a little dance before plopping on her bed with her eyes tig
Rise Of The World's Overlord 91. ...she was giddy with excitement.
Chapter 91Since Liam was going to meet with his mom by ten am that morning, he had a lot of time to spare and so he decided to spend it with Naya who was spending her morning at home too.After making breakfast, Naya invited him to the table to join her, which he did without thinking twice. After taking the first bite of the pancake in front of him, he raised his head and then gave her a thumbs up making a smile spread across her lips. “I improved right?” she was giddy with excitement. “Yeah, you did. You see, practice makes perfect.” “I was thinking I won't learn any culinary skills but… I did… and I'm so excited right now.” She mused with her hand across her chest. Liam on the other hand was just staring at her with his brow raised. He felt she was overreacting and whenever she returned from her high cloud of excitement, he was going to point it out to her. “What? You don't look pleased.” She said as she grabbed her glass of warm milk. “Even a child in the kindergarten will
Rise Of The World's Overlord 92. This mission is simple.
Chapter 92Madam Aurelia flipped through the files Mr. Jones had placed on the table and once she was done, she tossed it aside. “This mission is simple. We just need your hacking skills.” She said her gaze fixed on Liam who had been staring at her. “Please tell me more about it.” He replied, eager to find out what the mission was all about. “A few weeks ago, we discovered a group of people who want to trade the top secrets of the nation to foreigners and so we need to stop them at all costs.” She reeled. Gulping, Liam rubbed his hands against the fabric of his pants. It wasn't about the mission, but what the people were about to do. Selling out the secret of the nation no matter how little it was, was like selling the nation. “Mom, we need to hasten up with this otherwise, the whole nation will be in trouble.” He rapped. “Exactly! That's why I decided to ask for your help.” “Of course Mom, I'm ready to do anything provided the country is safe.” Smiling, Madam Aurelia held his
Rise Of The World's Overlord 93. I love her so much.
Chapter 93Madam Aurelia was shocked beyond words that she kept staring at Liam like it was the first time she was getting to meet him.She was clearly not expecting this news and even if she ought to have an idea about it, she felt it should not be from Mr. Jones, rather it should be directly from him. Mr. Jones on the other hand was wearing a neutral expression as he waited for the phase to pass away quickly. With the way she was acting, he had detected she had no idea about Liam's marriage and so he was the whistleblower.Bending his head to the ground, he was staring hard at the floor as he constructed an apology in his head to say to Liam once they were out. As for Liam, he was fiddling with his fingers as he darted his eyes around and at the same time was thinking of the right words to say to his mom.“I have no idea until now.” Madam Aurelia said, breaking the ominous silence in the room. Chuckling nervously, Liam dug his hand into his hair. He was still thinking of what to
Rise Of The World's Overlord 94. I'm not mad at you...
Chapter 94Taking the phone off her ear, Naya stared at the screen which was still on, it was like a dream to her since she wasn't expecting him to put a call across to her, not now or even in the next months. Already feeling sweaty, she rubbed her hand against her forehead, trying to contain her ragged breath. “Naya, are you still there? It's Nelson.” her brother asked since he was wondering why she had gone mute all of a sudden. Currently, he was at the phone booth in the barrack, gripping the wall and looking over his shoulder at the same time. Slowly, Naya placed the phone back against her ear as she gulped. She was trying to speak but words had refused to form no matter how hard she tried. “Are you well?” She managed to ask after a while. “Yes, I'm. How have you been?” He didn't allow her to give a response before he started speaking, “I'm sorry Naya, I haven't been able to reach out to you. Here at the barracks, we are restricted to using our phones and we can only operate

262. The End.
Six months later… The county had returned to normalcy after a thorough reform was put in place. To honor those that had made it happen, a mass meeting was organized where all members of the country were invited to be a witness to. Tyler Greene, the newly appointed President, was present in the mass meeting, being an icon in the revamped version of the country. His face was brightly marked with excitement, as he left the smile on his face and was distributing it to the citizens, who were seeing him. They had come in their masses as they wanted to witness the occasion first hand."First, I'll formally announce the reason for his honorable, reasonable and democratic meeting." Tyler started, his voice cool at first, accompanied with the sound of his laughter. "We all know about the change in the course of events in this country and those who made it happen.." Tyler spoke with clear gladness and couldn't hide it. Tyler's vice was beside him, holding a thick colored banner in his han

261. It's all in the past.
Daniel's voice was loud, as he kept making gestures with his hands. He was seated with his friends, conversing with them about the current news that spread around the country. Suddenly, someone rushed into their midst and exclaimed, "I heard another news…" "What's that, boy?" Daniel said, his voice breaking confidently, as if he would not be shaken by Liam's dealings. "Tell me, what's the news?" "The deal you made…" the boy started, but as soon as Daniel realized it was about a deal, he took the boy to a side to continue their talk in whispers. "The deal you strongly made and stamped with Karl had been released and broadly spread!" "What deal?" Daniel questioned him out of shock, and was rubbing his face until he stopped, as asked the boy again, "I don't get you. What deal?" "The chip infusion." The boy replied, his voice lighter as soon as he sensed anger in Daniel's voice."What!" Daniel reacted, as he nearly collapsed. "You know what? Just run away!" "To where?" The boy ask

260. What's the news?
Alaric had gone back to the operating room, and was still in bed. Fortunately, the surgeon realized he was all right. Alaric was totally healed, but he happened to have lost his memory. His constant surrender to Karl was all robotic. He was later brought from the operation room to a ward, on instruction that he needed to rest. "Hello?" A surgeon asked him. "What do you feel now?" "Feel what?" Alaric returned, his voice clear but light. "What do you mean?" "Oh, I know you're just coming back to normalcy…" the surgeon said, turning to his colleagues. "Do you think he is totally okay?" "Yeah," another surgeon responded, walking up to Alaric to check on him. "I think we should seek the attention of the senior surgeon, so he can see him." "Is that necessary?" The first surgeon questioned in return, holding her lips as she smiled. "Well, you can. At least, he is all right." Soon, the senior surgeon was around. He turned to the first surgeon and whispered to her ears, "I hope no chi

259. "Take this call!"
Kaylan didn't perform less than she was asked to do. She had spread the news of Rodriguez's illegal dealings vastly. Liam had ordered the release of the article which contained almost everything about Rodriguez and Karl. Rodriguez had felt comfortable with Karl's soothing words, continuing his illegal business with Karl became easy for him that he had no remorse, and even hid his fears about any form of leakage. "How far have you gone with the task I gave you?" Liam asked Kaylan, his voice deep but clear, an expression of his excitement. "In what state could the biotech company be, right now?" He mused. "I've forwarded the news to my team." Kaylan replied, returning a clearer tone in her own voice. "It will reach the masses easily that way…""I'll prove to Karl that I can thwart his schemes and nullify all his tricks." Liam chuckled, his voice making him sound like a villain and threatening Karl's attitude as though he was present. "Exactly, Liam." Kaylan responded in agreement.

258. I have evidence...
To spice up their plans, Liam had mailed a flashdrive to Rodriguez. The flash drive contained all the information they had gathered about him and Karl. Rodriguez made up his mind not to return the flash drive as he had a conclusion that something important was attached to it and so he was curious to find out the content. With that he made his way back to his office and as the Chief Justice he sat behind his imposing mahogany desk in the room.His eyes were fixed on the small, sleek flash drive that had been tossed on the table. The audacity of Liam to think of doing this hit him but he smiled while the question popped in his mind.Who did he think he was, trying to blackmail him?What was on his mind?Curiosity getting the better of him, Rodriguez inserted the drive into his computer and waited as the files began to load. Suddenly, the screen flickered to life, revealing an array of documents and recordings. Rodriguez's eyes widened on seeing the images which had himself includ

257. A risk we must take.
Madam Aurelia began walking in circles inside the living room as thoughts of what they were going to do next consumed her thoughts. She was still recovering from what she had seen in the file that Dave had brought, and the evidence was sickening. There was no doubt as to whether Karl and Rodriguez were crooks, and should they manage to expose them, it would definitely influence the outcome in their favor.Liam walked into the room, “Did you manage to find anything good among the papers?” He inquired, looking eager and hopeful.“Yes.” Madam Aurelia replied, gripping the folder firmly. “There are records of money movement as well as transactions which are quite illicit. If we conduct this campaign in the proper manner and present the right audiences with this evidence, the extent of Karl and Rodriguez’s dealings… It would be interesting corruption news that will come to light.”“Then we have no time to waste.” Liam affirmed in his stern tone. “Whatever this information gives us, they

256. This is perfect!
Liam stepped out of Tyler Greene’s office with a heavy heart, blaming himself for keeping his expectations high. He had wanted a better answer than that. However, Tyler’s indecision was a cause for concern. Time was running fast and voices of opposition against Karl were still weak. During the drive home, Liam found himself troubled. Would Tyler really lend his support for the cause? Or was he simply yet another hindrance in their efforts? He needed to collect his mind and think of a way out but he was too worried to even think properly. Instead of heading to him, Liam headed to the hotel to meet with Madam Aurelia who sat in the living room in the living room on his arrival. Her face was solemn, though she appeared to be happy with his arrival. “How did the meeting with Tyler go?” she asked, concern evident in her tones.“It didn’t go as well as I hoped.” Liam admitted, ruffling his hair. “He is not willing to take any actions against Karl, and I am afraid he has no nerves f

255. We need to strategize...
Liam stood still only to start pacing about because he was restless. He began to plan what step to take after Alaric's revelation. He was desperate to put an end to Daniel and Karl but he didn’t know how to go about it. He felt like an ill-fated knight who had lost everything; the very thought of Harrison now felt as if it was a heavy stone placed over him.Madam Aurelia was seated on the table sorting some papers. “We need to strategize on how best we are going to eliminate Karl.” Her tone was firm although not loud. “It is not enough to just wait and see what he intends to do next.” She added, casting him a glance. “Of course I understand,” Liam answered and twirls his hair with his fingers. “But what can we do? There is too much influence and too many people surrounding him.”At this point, Giovanni dashed into the living room, his eyes darkened as he looked around, “Liam!” he shouted – gasping for air. “Daniel and Karl are up to something. We must hurry before it is too late.”

254. This is very bad.
Alaric felt dejected in that small dingy room as he was at a stand still. He found himself strapped to a chair with metal rings cutting deep into his wrists. On the other side of the room, Xavier was strutting around confident with a sneer on his face. “Look at you now, Alaric ” Xavier said as he put his hands on his hips and laughed. “Formerly you had stature, nowadays you are just a flat back guy. What do you think about it?”Alaric turned his gaze toward him, internal rage reflected on his face. “You think this is a joke? You’re a mere puppet in Karl’s shadow. You will realize that one day.”Xavier let out another laugh. “Karl is top management. You would have done better staying with him. Instead, you went soft and turned the other way, and now look what this has led you to.”“Break all the connections with Karl.” Alaric spoke in a strained tone. “He’ll drain you dry. You will end up exactly like me.”Xavier shook his head but his grin had gone away. “You do not get it. This is
