To reader Sanju... I'm not sure if you're a boy or a girl, but calm down a little. While I'm immensely happy that you are voting from different accounts, you don't have to do that. Just voting from one account will be fine. And I deeply appreciate your support. Please do leave a review if you can so that I'll know what's good or bad with the novel. Also, to reader Lynn Casey, you were shown as one of the top three followers of mine in the yearly report for me, so...I can't thank you enough. The name 'Lynn' is already used as Russell's family name, but it will also be apt for a future character because of the important role Russell plays in the novel. Hopefully, you'll like it when that happens. Thanks for liking my works. To other readers also... thank you one and all for your support.
“Did your mother not raise you well?” Gabe glared at the caretaker. “How can you treat a senile woman so roughly?”“W-Who are you?” the caretaker barked at him. “You’ve got no business here, so get the fuck off.”“Would you say that to me if I was a robber?” Gabe asked her back, widening her eyes. “Would you have said that to me if I gave you a thumbs-up for beating that old woman?” he began to walk toward her. “The world is full of all kinds of criminals, but the worst out of them are those that prey on children and abuse the elderly. I don’t care what sort of a reason you have to be grabbing her hair like this and treating her as if she’s not a human like you. You deserve to be severely punished for what you’ve done. I don’t have the trust in the police to call them and expect them to punish you, so I’m going to be taking that into my own hands. Don’t hate me for what I”m about to do.”“Y-You think I’ll let you just do what you want to me?” The caretaker grabbed a chair, folded it a
After fixing the registration date for buying the old age home, Gabe returned the kidnapped kids to their homes with Systa’s help, but he didn’t reveal his identity to the kids’ parents, not wanting to complicate things for himself.When he came home late at night, he was startled because there was a big package right at the door. A person could easily fit inside that box if they were chopped, so all kinds of negative thoughts crept into his mind.However, Gabe could not smell any blood coming from the box, so he quickly opened it up. To his surprise, it was full of cotton and woolen clothes.There was a paper note right at the bottom.“I noticed that you wear polyester clothes often, so I specially picked these for you. Do wear these and stop wearing polyester clothes as they are not good for health.”Gabe recognized the extremely beautiful handwriting. It was Mia’s writing. Compared to her handwriting, his writing looked more like the result after a hen scratched the ground with its
“Stop…” Kiera was crying while looking at herself in the mirror, and her age was rapidly progressing. The Kiera in the mirror was talking with her.“Every day you look at yourself in the mirror, you age little by little. Your beauty will slowly fade away, and you’ll start looking as ugly outside as you are on the inside. As you get older, it will get harder for you to poo and pee. When you get too old, the poo and peel will not listen to you and come out whenever they want. This is the kind of pathetic life you have in front of yourself, so why do you cling to superficial things such as fame, money, and outward beauty? When are you going to learn your lesson, bitch?”“Shut up!” Kiera threw a chair in the mirror and destroyed it, but the broken glasses repaired themselves, and she was able to see her aging self in the mirror again, and she did not look beautiful at all when she was past eighty. Her skin, her teeth, her eyes, everything looked ugly and unsightly to her.Kiera tried to b
{Who said I’m a vampire?} Ulf jumped at the masked man and punched at him. {Low Day Drainer Punch!} “Hmph,” the masked man caught Ulf’s fist rather easily. “You think a mere kid like you can do anything?” he was saying, but then he felt his energy getting sucked away by Ulf. “What the hell?” He pulled his hand away quickly. Ulf landed on the ground and swiveled once before kicking sideways at the masked man’s knee. {Mid Day Drainer Kick!} His kick connected perfectly. Not only did the masked man’s knee plate shake and get set out of its place, he also felt his energy getting sucked away by Ulf’s foot while it was still in contact. “Krgh,” the masked man tried to move back. Ulf leaped at him again. {High Day Drainer Punch!} His fist perfectly struck the masked man’s chest, and then suddenly drained a lot of energy, which was very disturbing to the opponent. The masked man felt dizzy and almost fell to his knee as if he was greatly electrocuted. But he was still somehow able to stan
“That’s what happened,” Gabe explained most of the details to her, leaving her a bit speechless.“To think there were vampires on top of these supernatural systems….” she felt like she was overloaded with information. Just then, she noticed that there were rings on both hands of Gabe. Multiple rings. One of them must be his wedding ring, and the rest must be the systems. When she thought about that, her hand automatically reached for him. When she held his hand, Gabe did not pull his hand away because she looked like she needed some comfort.However, when Kiera stepped closer and tried to lean her head on his shoulder, Gabe stepped back. “Whoa, what are you doing?”“I-I…” Kiera fumbled for words.“Your husband is the one that requires more help than you do, Kiera,” Gabe reminded her.“My husband…” she looked back at Zack who had lost his eyes, ears, teeth, and even his tongue. His fingers were gone, too. “How am I supposed to live with after he became like this? He’s not fit to be any
[Did you have to wash your hands? It looked like Kiera was about to cry because of what you did.] Systa told Gabe while he was driving the car.“You were watching?” Gabe was surprised.[I can’t see through your eyes if I want.] Systa replied. [Though it consumes a lot of energy.]“Mm. I just felt a strong scent of hers on my hand, probably because of my enhanced senses. It was uncomfortable,” Gabe said. “It just didn’t feel right. That’s why I washed it. A little bit of her scent still lingers. I don’t like it. I don’t want to remember her.”[You can have her as your concubine if you want.] Systa suggested.“Concubine? Stop joking.”[I wasn’t joking.]“She left Zack after he lost his eyes. It’s one thing to leave him, but she didn’t even feel sorry for him,” Gabe said. “If she didn’t get hurt by what happened to Zack, then I’m a thousand percent sure that she also did not shed a tear for dumping me on the wedding day at the last second. Of course, it was her plan all along, but still,
Mia woke up from a long, fruitful dream. She smiled and clenched her fist in excitement. “I’m starting to get a hang of powering up through dreams. I don’t know where the ceiling for this type of technique really is, but I’m going to use this for as long as it works.”{Check your mobile. Gabe sent you a message.} Stemmer said.“Oh, did he see the dresses?” Mia checked her mobile with a lot of expectation, but what she read was completely different. “Gather pack members?”{So it is time.} Stemmer’s voice gained weight. {You’ve developed enough techniques these past ten days, so you’re now worthy to get some subordinates and bestow powers on them.}“S-Subordinates… I’ve never really had any subordinate in my life,” Mia responded in hesitance. Even though she was the owner of her house and properties of her parents, she never took advantage of that and misbehaved with her aunt or her family. She just didn’t have that kind of personality in her veins. “I’m not really good at ordering peop
Venkat and Nora were quarreling early in the morning.“Is it so hard for you to make a meal before I go to the office?” Venkat yelled in the hall.“Don’t shout!” Nora yelled back at him from the first floor. “I made you breakfast yesterday, didn’t I?”“What about today then?” Venkat raised his voice. “Do I have to specifically remind you to cook breakfast every single morning?”“Go eat outside. I’m sure you can stop by a hotel and grab a few quick bites,” Nora blurted.“I don’t like eating at just any place because I only want to eat hygiene food.” Venkat could only grind his teeth because she went into her room without even listening to him. The relationship between him and Nora was nice until marriage, but after that, they began to quarrel about every little thing because of difference in opinions. Neither of them had an understanding attitude, so this made it all the more frustrating for both the parties.“I should have married a patient woman,” Venkat muttered under his breath. Mi
