Slade felt a blow to his chest at this instant. When he walked in on Mariana and she had turned to look at him, he had thought that she would feel remorseful at least, but looking at the way the things were going... Was she calling security on him? Really? Was she not even taken aback to see him? Couldn't she at least pretend that she cared that he just got out of prison?
He realised that if he let her continue to scream on top of her voice, something else might happen, and he might not end up sorting out his bothers and worries.
He shut his eyes for a moment and took charge of the atmosphere in the room. Concentrating helped him control everything that was around him. With the manipulation of the energy frequencies, he was easily able to break into the mind of Mariana.
Doing this, he could suppress the mind of Mariana and make her lose her thinking ability for a moment.
What he was doing right now was similar to what he did to Candyce when she had fallen into the river. With the aura and energy oozing from Slade's body, he could make the brain of his victim static and unresponsive for a moment.
Although during the situation with Candyce, he had to touch her because he was in close contact with her. But in the case of Mariana, who was standing a couple of distances away from him, he had to use a double reception to highten the frequency. Thereby employing his aura as a tool to make her brain signals fluctuate.
All of this happened under a second, and Mariana could not even shout anymore. She didn't know what was happening to her. She just felt stressed in her head and suddenly felt a slight headache.
She ceased from the screaming and just glared at Slade. She had no idea that Slade had done this, so she couldn't possibly blame him.
Slade was staring directly at her. When he had left his Mamita back at home, his mind was really busy. He had a lot of questions to ask Mariana. When he accosted his ex mother-in-law and father-in-law, his questions piled up, and he couldn't wait to meet Mariana.
But right now that Mariana was just standing a few steps away from him, his head became blank. He just couldn't bring himself to ask the multiple questions he had prepared.
The way she was acting and the fact that she called the security on him made him almost lose his mind. Maybe he expected too much from her. Maybe he shouldn't have expected that much from her.
He opened his mouth slowly to pour his heart out to her,
"Why?" That was the only word that fell from his lips. "What is going on, Mariana?" His brain made further effort to give more context to his worries.
Mariana just stood there glaring. Her facial expression suggested that she was staring at a garbage can. As though Slade were some heap of filth. The disgust in her face was beyond measure.
"Why do you make it sound that way?" Mariana suddenly said.
When she said this, Slade suddenly became interested. What she had just said had the potential of becoming an anticlimax. Slade could only hope at this point.
She started to walk closer to him. She stopped again. She had decided to walk closer because she wanted him to hear her clearly. But also, she didn't want to get too close to him. She must have her own reasons.
"If you say it that way, then you make it sound like I've always liked you." She scoffed, rolling her eyes.
When she scoffed, she pressed two of her fingers to the corner of her left eye to fix something.
"This fool will make me ruin my makeup." She grunted in displeasure, wishing that Slade would vanish into thin air already.
Slade didn't even know what to feel at this point anymore. He had thought that she was about to say something warm when she had said the first statement. It seemed like he got his hopes up for no reason.
"Let me make it extremely clear to you, ex-convict." Mariana continued, raising her voice a little bit higher with lots more boldness.
Slade's veins were pulsing, and his eyes were growing really darker! How could someone like her call him an ex-convict? If it wasn't for her, would he have ever neared the prison his whole life?! Rage burst out in him!
"I was doting on you back then because your family was the hottest thing in the market back then. I thought that dating someone like that would help me gain a dignified social status. It will put me leagues ahead of my friends and mates." She stopped talking for a while as an evil smirk cut across her face.
"Let me even tell you. Six months before you left from prison, I already started hating you. I mean, it wasn't like I've ever liked you. Everything was just for the gain! But when your family's Nyther-Rim Groups was on the verge of bankruptcy six months before you went to prison, I've been looking for a way to break up with you!" She exclaimed.
"You stopped being useful to me ever since that time! You couldn't even buy me a common Hermès Birkin bag. The 11th Lowry edition jewelry was my biggest fantasy back then! You couldn't get it for me. You made my friend steal the spotlight and buy it! You made her steal my shine! I hated you with all of my heart." Her face had turned red, flushed with hate.
"It was such a big relief that you went to the prison. I was able to finally get rid of you." She chuckled as she stopped talking.
At this point, there was a great commotion happening in Slade's body. His spiritual energies and qi properties have been hightened to the extent that all his body organs were beginning to work times hundred their speed. He was caught up in utmost rage.
"Was that why you chose to marry, Vixton? That demon Vixton, whose family burnt my house, hurt my nanny, and even sent construction workers to demolish the house?" Slade asked, trying so hard to suppress the commotion happening in his body.
"Your nanny. Is she still alive?" Mariana scoffed. "That wench is so hard to kill." She said under her breath, not wanting Slade to hear. But Slade caught it.
His eyes turned into blood this time, and he wanted to charge at her.
She continued, laughed softly.
"How can you even prove that Vixton killed your family? Do you have any evidence? You can't even prove it! Unlike you, whom everyone knows as a murderer!" She chuckled. "Who knows, maybe the death of your family is a punishment from the Lord. To rid pollution from the earth..." She cackle
Slade sharply realized that she had not denied that Vixton was the murderer of his entire family.
In a way, it was also an admission.
It seems the rumors are true. Slade was seething with rage. He could snap her neck and then rip her head off her body if he wanted to.
But he rubbed his sole against the floor.
She was right. Slade had no evidence now and could make no accusations. What he needed to do next was to slowly uncover the true faces of these people.
He would have his revenge. Soon, he would make those who had taken everything from him wish they were dead.
Perhaps misunderstanding Slade's silence, Mariana laughed even more wildly.
"Maybe I should invite you to my wedding," she said, "so you, the incompetent fool, can experience the world of the elite."
"Okay," Slade replied.
"What did you say?" Mariana was taken aback. She had intended to humiliate Slade with this offer, not expecting him to agree.
"I said, okay," Slade said with a bloody grin, "As long as you don’t mind if your wedding turns into a funeral."

Slade didn't bother to want to leave. If he wanted to, he could shove Vixton out of the way and watch him break all his limbs. He could do all this without even breaking a sweat. But right now, he had something else in mind.People like Mariana and Vixton should be made to beg to keep their lives!"I'm in my right senses! It's really you! It's the murderer." Vixton smirked as he continuously accused Slade. "What the hell are you doing here today?"Vixton shook his head for a second."No, that's not the right question. How did you get out of prison? When were you released? Are you alive?" Vixton cackled as though he wished Slade dead. "What gave you the guts to show up on my wedding day?"

They arrived at the villa. They didn't have to walk a long distance because the Villa was quite close to the church. Slade could now understand why Candyce had randomly walked to the scene at the cathedral.The villa stood out in the area. It looked really opulent, and its exterior design was very rear. It looked like a design that must have been contracted to one of the best architects in the whole world.Slade didn't want to focus on the building itself. There was an urgent business he had to attend to her. The pressing matter was much more important than the lush gardens that surrounded the building or the crystal private pool that overlooked the ocean view.Candyce was already at the front, pushing the alarm bell of the door. As soon as the doorbell tinged, the door opened from inside. It would seem as though the person behind the door had been expecting someone's presence.Walking through the door was none other than Jendall Kurtis. He was wearing a simple attire, and his face lo

Slade hardly had to resort to exuding aura to intimidate. He didn't like to do it because he believed that people should not be manipulated in order to instill fear or demand respect from them.

Even if he wouldn't heal Jendall for their sake, he would do it because Jendall trusted and believed in him! Wasn't that one of the core beliefs in divine healing?If Jendall had not trusted him, the old man wouldn't have given him his treasured ring or even invited him to his villa!

CHAPTER 16."Switch off the air conditioner." Slade ordered out of the blue. Candyce had no reason to argue yet. She found the remote control of the AC and switched it off from the spot. "The pool of sweet has to dry naturally. It might look unnecessary, but it's important in the process." Slade added. "Who are you?" Doctor Huggins couldn't hold himself back anymore. At first, he had wanted to admire Slade from distance and not get too close because he was already looking for someone to blame the death of Jendall on if things didn't go well. But after seeing the technique that Slade had just employed in treating the old man, curiosity got the best of him, and he was now a mere shadow of his desires. Slade turned to look at the doctor. He saw the look of utmost awe crawling up the face of the man. He could still remember how this man was glaring at him earlier. He could remember how the man hardly paid any attention to him earlier. What changed now?"You look like someone who didn

Candyce swoon over her father, hugging him with every fiber in her body. She had thought that she had lost him. She had thought that her father had ended up as a specimen of a failed medical procedure. She couldn't believe that he was finally back to life.The flood that poured from her eyes soaked the portion of the cloth of her father where her face was buried in."You healed my father! You truly healed my father!" She suddenly felt remorseful towards Slade.She recalled that she had said a lot of harsh and unfair words to Slade. She wished to redeem herself at this moment. Her emotions got the best of her, and she has returned to her senses."I'm so sorry for all the evil words I said to you. I didn't mean for them to come out that way. I thought you were trying to extort us and pretend to be who you are not. Please forgive me." Although she was apologizing to him, she didn't leave her father yet.She was such a daddy's girl. The way she was holding her father, it would seem as tho

"It will be an honor for me to be of help to my savior. I'll definitely get you whatever you want." Lord Jendall promised.Slade sighed. He was relieved to hear this.The rest of the materials are enough to help him to build a new arm for Mamita. He hadn't for once forgotten to imagine the pain that Mamita must have been through. Also, the stress that came with doing everything with just one arm! It must have been hell for her.And to think that the poor woman ended up like this because of him and his family. Slade really couldn't forgive himself. His heart became bitter again."But there is something that I can not promise." Lord Jendall broke into his thoughts.Slade became concerned as he looked up at the man again."What do you mean?" He asked, curiosity getting the best of him."To get the material for making a prosthetic vessel would not be the problem, but getting the machine that would make the vessel itself is not ---" The old man trailed for a while.All eyes were on Lord J

Lord Jendall was pleased that his daughter has willingly offered to take Slade to the location. Earlier, his daughter didn't get along with Slade. Perhaps this would be a great time for the two to get to know each other, the old man thought.Slade nodded and bent his body forward respectfully to the old man. He turned around and followed Candyce's lead.Doctor Huggins was too grounded to the spot to decide what he ought to do at that moment.When they walked out of the foyer into the large garage of the building, Slade was in awe of the space.There was a fleet of cars. Exotic cars. Slade observed closely and noticed that on the right hand, there were ranges of popular cars like Rolls-Royce, Chevrolet, Pagani, Bugatti, and several other brands. But on the left hand, there were strangely beautiful cars that he had never seen before.At first, he thought that these cars were products of new companies that just started making automobiles. It wouldn't be farfetched to think this way, since he s

Everyone watched with mouth agape following what had just happened. They thought that they had seen it all when the demons changed into their true form and killed Manuel. Seeing what Slade had just done broke every barrier that their minds had set against the impossible. With just one swipe of the hand, Slade had created a deep and very dark hole. Everyone of them could see as the mouth of the dark hole opened as though it was the pulsing throat of a gigantic and wild beast. The throat of the dark vacuum had gobbled the demons and had vanished into thin air. "Master!!!" Ivana jumped on her feet instantly and raced towards Slade. Ivana who appeared to have lost her will and strength was suddenly and instantly energized. She looked like a different person at that moment. She ran towards Jaai and leapt into his chest. With her legs curled around his waist, and her arms around his neck, she hugged him with every bit of strength in her body. "What the hell is wrong with this girl?" S

By this time, all the demons were done feasting on the body of Manuel and were now back to their old human forms. Even though they were looking like an average human now, Izuga couldn't see them as such anymore. Right now, he was pissing his pants and shuddering. It felt like he would pass out any moment from now. He couldn't even lift his gaze, let alone look at the demons. He wished that he could grow a wing and fly out of this fucking place. He wished that there was something he could do to vanish. But when the reality dawned on him, he realised that the only superpower that he had right now was just wishes. There was nothing he could do but wish. It should be relieving but it was a mere illusion. Araguta was equally shaken to the core. Of course he had fought in deadly battles and had dealt blows that were ruthless. He had killed a thousand of evil spirits and had summoned many, returning them back to where they came from. Yet, he had never seen any demon of this form. Demons

The voice sounded so familiar to Sceptre that he couldn't do any other thing but be stunned by the suddenness of the call. Looking at the person who had just called his name, Sceptre's eyes widened in shock. With the look on his face, it would seem like he had just seen a ghost. "Izuga." Araguta, the man Sceptre muttered as he saw the man. "My son." He added. "Father!" The man, who now identifies as Izuga screamed. "What are you doing here" He asked, not ready to hear the answer. "I should be asking you this. How the hell did you get here?" The tone or Araguta had tuned so deeply that it was evident in his voice that this wasn't a reunion anymore. Sceptre was scolding his son as though he was an urchin who had just landed himself into a deep mess. He was way too annoyed than to be surprised to see him here. There was a reason they had fought and stopped seeing each other. Araguta had warned his son never to be part of the secret agent that worked for the government but Izuga had

The man was wetting his pants right now as he saw what had just happened. He thought that he had seen cruel people all his life, but he had been telling himself a huge lie. What he had just seen was way more than just terrible. At first when he had seen the lady, he had thought that they were sex workers who came to please their clients. Instead, the ladies seemed scared of the men. This meant that the ladies must have been brought here against their own wills. They had been trafficked. A new wave of fear gripped the man. He was shaking. He was shuddering. If this kind of men were the people they had been brought to, doesn't that mean that they were done for?He wished that there was a way they could escape this kind of trouble but not in his wildest dreams would that be possible. He just knew it. The only way they would be rescued would be if perhaps an angel dropped down from heaven or a god. If that could happen, then perhaps they could have a shot at getting freed.

"He wanted to kill me! He almost killed me!" Manuel cried as soon as he saw the creatures. He was reporting to the creatures as though they would come to his aid and teach the man some lessons. Instead, two of the creatures grabbed each of them and dragged them in. "Where are you taking us?" The man argued, doing all he could to yank himself off the hard grip of the weird-looking creatures. Perhaps he thought that the powers that he had just exhausted on Manuel would find a way to resurface. If that were to be the case, then he wouldn't be dragged away like a sac of rice. When he stopped trying to free himself, he realised that they had entered what looked like a big hall. At this point, he was neither scared nor worried. Instead, he was curious. This hall looked like a medical lab where gigantic transparent tanks were lined up all across the space. There were aisles in between the rows of transparent tanks.Each tank held a type of creature that the man had never seen before. In

The man was mellow through the journey. They walked through a dark hallway, then bursted into a hallway that had tiny hues of blue rays. The man had lifted his gaze for a moment to see where the blue rays were coming from, but his eyes were weary from the hard slap that he had received the second time. When the security had tried to drag him out of the prison, he had tried to put up a fight again, instead he met with a very laughable humiliation. Hence, to protect his ego and the thoughts of being capable, he decided that it would be best for him not to try and act the hero just like he was warned by the security.Soon enough, they approached a door that was saturated by a brilliant white light. The saturation was so high that it was hard to tell whether it was the door that was white or it was the white light that gave that illusion. They came to stop at the door. As soon as they stopped at the door, the three security personnel stepped away from them, letting them free. The sec

Three men dressed in black plain suits appeared at the front of the gate. One of the men opened the gate and the others stepped in. Manuel was still on the floor, groaning in pain as he tried to sit up but he just couldn't. Of course he could see the men that had just walked in, but he was too weak to react in a certain way. "Who are you?" The man argued, staking a claim as he stared at the three men who were walking towards him. He wasn't the same old weak person he used to be. He was now a new person and would do anything to protect that interest. In the past, he would have cowered like a cornered animal. But right now, he was willing to give it whatever it takes to earn his freedom. After all, he now has some powers. "I'm warning you to stop right now when I'm being nice to you." He warned again as the men kept walking in his direction. They didn't care about his warning obviously.The fact that they didn't care about his warning was making him feel unseen. How could someone

"What the hell is that?" The man wondered, turning back to Manuel to see what the hell was happening. Looking at the grip on his wrist, he saw Manuel's hand. Manuel's palm was locked around his wrist, holding him so strongly as though it would snap his wrist off. "What the hell!" He gasped, unable to explain how Manuel's grip got so strong. Wasn't this the same man that he had been hitting blue and black for a while now? Why all of a sudden, Manuel gained some strange strength? Why did it have to be when he was about to figure out where he was?He trailed the hand to the face of Manuel. Manuel's eyes were still shut just like it had always been. The eyelids didn't even flicker nor twitch. "Let go of my hand, you fool!" The man was getting rather impatient. "It's better you make the right decision before I break your face further." He threatened as though Manuel could hear him. He has been working as a secret agent for years. He knew what subconscious strength means. This is the c

When consciousness was restored to his body, his eyes flickered for a moment. There was a strong urge to open his eyes but he couldn't follow through with it for some reasons. Soon enough, his eyes started itching. This time, there was no reason not to follow through with the obvious. His eyes flipped open. Then he shut them again as they met with blinding lights. When he tried to open the eyes again, he tried to do it carefully. He didn't want to fall into the same old ditch that he had fallen into earlier. Opening his eyes this time, he redirected the concentration of his pupils in another direction. That was the only way he could avoid the same old mistake. When his gaze fell on the other area, he saw something interesting that stole a weird sound from his throat. It was something that was rather instinctive than premeditated. It was the leg of a human. At first, he thought that the leg was disconnected from the body of the human but it wasn't. His eyes slowly trailed the leg
