The big, fatty crocodile came diving like a king at a great speed with no fear whatsoever. It probably killed at least a human or two in the past. Now, it wanted more.Even though the crocodile made little to no sound, Gabe sensed a thick trace of presence in his mind. Not only that, but the faint low growl of the crocodile also somehow rang in his mind. This happened before even Systa alerted him. He didn’t know that it was actually a crocodile until Systa warned him.[A crocodile is coming from two o’clock! It’s a rather big one.] Systa yelled in haste. [Get to the surface! Now!]All the concentration Gabe had went ‘poof.’Not only did he open his eyes and mouth, he began to rush to the surface in a hurry. Just as he reached the surface, the crocodile also reached him. It was so big that Gabe could see its head coming out of the waters just at the last second. He didn’t need Systa to tell him what to do. When death came calling in the form of a dreadful crocodile, his body automatic

Gabe refused to go back into the pond because he was already utterly exhausted after the fight with the Lord of the Pond. He could easily recover his stamina in fifteen minutes or so, but still, he realized how powerless he felt underwater against the crocodile. So, he didn’t want to recklessly enter the pond.Even though Systa told him that this crocodile was an exception and that all the crocodiles he’d encounter from now on would probably not even be half as big as the Lord of the Pond, Gabe still wasn’t inclined to swim in the pond, at least not today.Nevertheless, Gabe listened to Systa and called the UTS staff and told them about the crocodile. They came in about thirty minutes and then sealed the crocodile’s mouth and limbs and tail so it wouldn’t be able to move after getting up.Gabe was paid 120,000 dollars for the crocodile, with the added condition that he would get ten kilos worth of meat after the crocodile was killed. He was also promised that the meat would be deliver

“The world can be a cruel place…” Bjorn Hemsey was having dinner at Tuna Waves, and the newly appointed manager was personally talking to him so that everything would go perfectly without any problem. “I feel sorry you, Mr. Slate. I too received a divorce letter when I was near death with a sickness many years ago. My wife found another man and left my children to a dying man like me. She didn’t care about my wealth, but the fact that she also didn’t care about ‘our’ kids… I wasn’t able to forget that.”“Is that why you haven’t married even though it’s been more than twenty years since you divorced, sir?” the manager, Stuart Slate, a short but handsome-looking fellow, respectfully spoke. Despite his young appearance he was nearing fifty years of age.Bjorn faintly smiled because of Stuart’s openness as well as courage to speak in such a manner to someone he only met today. “So you know about me better than I thought.”“Who wouldn’t know about the Hemsey family?” Stuart replied with c

Just as Bjorn was thinking of leaving after paying the bill, he had seen a face that he somehow felt familiar. It was a young man who ended up sitting not far from his table. “Is he who I think he is?” Bjorn wondered and patiently waited.A few minutes later.Nicole came to meet this young man and sat at his table. Seeing her, Bjorn was pleasantly surprised. He couldn’t believe how young she looked. It was as if she hadn’t aged a bit in the last twenty years. Bjorn’s mouth stayed open in shock. Was it really Nicole, or did she have a daughter who grew into looking just like her mother? All sorts of crazy thoughts made the old man’s dance.“Crocodile meat?” Nicole was startled. “You want me to give this to the chairman? Isn’t he your friend? Why don’t you give it to him directly?”“I don’t want to,” that’s all Gabe said.“Are you worried that he might think you’re trying to get close with him?” Nicole asked.“I don’t really care what he thinks about me, but he’s given you the job,” Gab

“S-Since when did you know?” Bjorn intently looked at Gabe, awaiting an answer.“For a long time,” Gabe casually said. “After work, you would walk a few blocks and then take the same taxi every night. You also come to your store in the same taxi every morning. I saw the taxi driver drinking every afternoon, so something felt strange. I asked the driver when he was drunk, and he told me that you actually lived in a very big building, and that you still didn’t pay the driver graciously. He cursed you a lot.”“O-Oh…” Bjorn still looked a bit speechless. “I thought nobody figured it out, but I guess I was seen through. Does this mean that your aunt also knows about me?”Gabe’s expression suddenly turned cold. “MY AUNT?”“D-Don’t get me wrong. She used to work in my store, so I was wondering if…” Bjorn didn’t know how to web his words to convince Gabe as this young man didn’t look the least bit happy that his aunt was brought into the conversation. Bjorn’s experience told him that he alrea

At Tuna Waves.Bjorn was still waiting at a table, hoping to meet Nicole at the end of her shift. Even though it was around eight in the night at the time, there were still plenty of customers, most of whom were youngsters.“The Dream Creed has really taken over the gaming market,” Bjorn muttered under his breath. “Five years back, I thought Regan Creed lost his mind when I saw him invest his own money instead of taking business loans from banks, but now I understand why he’s risked that much. His gaming company that was only worth a few hundred billion dollars now became a giant worth over 19 trillion dollars. Even the Supreme Bank associated with it has raised its market cap to 4 trillion dollars the last time I checked. A few other companies that also associated themselves with the Creed Tech company also grew into trillionaires over the past few years.” He felt like he really missed out on something big. “But why is it that the grandson of Regan still bothers to come to a restaura

The soup was still hot enough to hurt Nicole. However, she did not scream. She bore the pain even though her skin burned.“What have you done!” Stuart raised his voice.Titan stood, and he towered over Stuart. His fist was the size of Stuart’s head. “Arrogant chefs who take their customers for granted will never get far in their careers!” He didn’t even bother to answer Stuart and kept humiliating Nicole. “If you don’t even know how hot you should make the soup, you don’t deserve to be a chef. Even a beggar can cook better than you, bitch. You totally ruined my mood and wasted my time.”Nicole wasn’t even in a position to respond. The hotness of the soup was one thing, but what hurt her even more was the spices that were added in the soup. All the hotness of the spices went into her eyes and nose and burned her flesh so much. She couldn’t even see as tears formed nonstop, trying to fight the unbearable heat in her eyes.Bjorn quickly came over, and Nicole coincidentally took his help

“Don’t expect me to go easy on you bastards.” Russell folded his sleeves as he walked toward the gangsters, and all the remaining nine gangsters attacked him together. They had weapons, but none of their weapons reached this young man. He utterly decimated them and even broke some of their bones. He finished all nine of them in less than nine seconds but was still holding onto the leader of their gang by his hair. “You dare cause nuisance in my territory? Which gang do you belong to?” Even though he asked that, he saw the scorpion tattoo on the leader’s hand. “Remove those bikes and make way for the ambulance in one minute, or your entire gang won’t exist from tomorrow.”The leader of the gang had to do what was demanded from Russell. As the ambulance passed by, the driver thanked Russell.Russell looked at the leader of the scorpion gang. “If I see you or your gang members in my Dream Zone again, I’ll not be kind for a second time. Now, scram!”After the gangsters helped each other a
