Con looked at the tablet in his hands and tried to see where exactly the location he was being shown was.

Xavier had encountered another problem with Lisa, she did something dangerous again without thinking of the consequences, and now her father had to solve the issue. There was a lot for him to do and lot more than he wanted to do

Anyways, now that Lisa was out of the scene and Xavier was occupied with getting to her, there was space for him to carry out the research he had always wanted to.

There was a surprising part of Lisa's discovery about her father and his files that they had all overlooked her discovering. There was much Xavier could do with the ice core but the problem remained the fact that he didn't know where the thing had come from.

Lisa also wanted to know that and so did the rest of them, but what he suspected was that Xavier knew more than he was letting on. There was no reason for him to want to hide things from his daughter but Lisa was as inquisitive as anyone c

    The Aedion was something Xavier had never seen in his life and one he wished he hadn't seen now that he had seen it.Lisa was still in her digital construct and with that came the knowledge that he had failed at trying to get her out of it.So far there was little to nothing that he could do for Lisa in whatever construct she had been trapped in and so far there was little he could do to help himself too.Con was already away on another one of his missions and this time he had refused to tell anyone what that mission was about.The little he had said was that he would be back and he had stood up and left.Aside from that, there was also the fact that his wife had delivered a package right to their doorstep.The lady Con had been married to while he was Derek Aer had delivered a package containing threats right to his doorstep and what was inside that package had been nothing more than a threat.Jane had been the one who brought it up and she had been scared at the moment.

    Glover city was the same as Jake had left it and he smiled as the plane landed.He was still yet to figure out where Adelaide had gone but he had a good idea. If the doctor had touched her then he would kill the doctor before making her suffer. His family businesses had probably been taken over by his asshole friends. They were all assholes but he would choose being the bigger asshole any day and any time than to be subject to their wickedness. After they had helped him locate the Aliyevs and he had failed, they had refused to offer him any more help after that.They had watched him try to locate the guy that had worked at Aubrey's company and who had slapped one of his bodyguards at the time.He still didn't have a clue as to where that person was up until this day, his memory had been damaged a bit after the initiation and now he had all these thoughts that weren't his floating through his mind. It annoyed him and disturbed him to be connected to people in this way. He wanted to h

  • THE GOD OF MERCENARY'S NEW LIFE.   Chapter 150: "Miss Jane got it for me."

    Jane and Aubrey shared joint looks as Xavier went on with his work like nothing had happened. If it was ten years ago then he would have been the first person to go after his boss, riding his car into the darkness with guns, like a knight out to save a damsel in distress. Time had truly changed them but it was not surprise that it had changed them. Ten years ago they would have both gone after Con the minute they noticed he was missing. That was what had brought them to Orion city and after the collapse of the city and Con's disappearance, they had relented for a while, but they had never given up on him. They always kept hope in their hearts that they would find him, and they did. Xavier was probably just calm because he knew where Con was. Xavier raised his head up to meet the gazes of the two women staring at him. A slight smile spread on his face as he cocked an eyebrow up. "Why the glowering?" Jane peered at him through fine and delicate lashes. "You know where Con is d

    Con stared at the file in his hands and the message Xavier had sent to him.The file was much more important than the message. He had gotten it. The information he had been searching for all this while.Horizon was bigger than what he had imagined. This world they were was one of their creations and the plans they had for it was much more evil than the plans he had tried to foil.The plans that had cost him his life and the plans that had made him feel like he had not a clue what he was doing in his career. There was much to do, too much for him to ignore it and act like nothing was happening.Xavier had sent him a message detailing their recent decisions.It wasn't really a message, it was more like they were trying to convince him of something.Xavier was saying they ought to relax and see what the future held for them as individuals, not just because of them but for all the people around them too.There was nothing after them and they ought to believe it and see that nothing was i

    "He's not picking up is he?"Xavier shook his head and turned to look at the two ladies watching him. Jane and Aubrey were super worried about Con, and the fact that he was acting like a dickwad and not picking up any of their calls was something that had made them come to him.How they reasoned that Con would pick up his call when he had not picked theirs up baffled him, but he agreed to call the man all the same.Now that he was calling Con over the phone he was getting the same response. Static indifference. The call would ring and ring but no one would ever pick. Con would never cut a call directly, even when he didn't want to take the call. Instead he would stay back and watch as the call rang and imagine those on the other side panicking because they could not get him.He had done it to a number of commanders while they had worked as the military defense personally hired mercenary soldiers. He had done it to members of the team and he had done far worse to his uncle, it was ju

    Jane could already feel her nerves scraping against each other as the drive continued. She had already decided on the fact that she would not be giving Con any smiles or warm looks.The fact that they had phoned him repeatedly and he had refused to pick up his calls annoyed her, and more than that it made her feel unwanted.She had been the one who went out to bring the package in and she had seen the threat embedded in the box. The delivery man had said the package had come from Con's wife. They all knew there was something else Con didn't seem to be telling them. The fact that the woman he had said he would divorce still seemed to see herself as his wife meant that the divorce papers had probably not been signed and Con had not told any of them that.Maybe he would have told Xavier, but Xavier wasn't in any way concerned with that.He claimed to love them but he didn't even talk to them or tell them anything he was planning. It didn't make her feel very loved.It didn't make her fee

    Con was barely getting his new work space assembledd before Jane and Aubrey appeared in his line of vision with Lisa in tow.Well Lisa was the one who lead at the head while the two women followed behind, but unlike Lisa, they didn't seem too thrilled to be around any of the things they were looking at. Him included.Jane's glare would have incinerated a lesser man and Con didn't know if he was to feel happy or hurt at Aubrey's melancholic but utterly relaxed look.She seemed not to give a single eff about whatever he had been doing with his time and it hurt. Yes, he had decided on it now. It hurt.What hurt more was the fact that they had every right to be angry at him.Lisa was the first person to throw herself at him in a hug and he caught her. It would seem the little girl had missed him."Where are the black roses at?"Con rolled his eyes and placed her back on the floor."Out back, you can ask one of the maids to take you there. Be careful with the thorns."Lisa was nodding but

  • THE GOD OF MERCENARY'S NEW LIFE.   Chapter 155: "Do you think they won't notice you spying on them?"

    Xavier knew that Con would probably have a hard time facing Jane and Aubrey.And he had expected it. It wasn't that he didn't want to see them together, he had even imagined that Con would give up all his heroic antics for a settled life with them, but that had been a botched plan from the onset and even he knew it.If Con had wanted to live the settled life he had imagined for himself he would have never gotten himself involved with Mark's sister.There were a number of things that action alone had set into motion and maybe it was because of that they were in this situation today.They all had things they had to be responsible for. In Adelaide's case it had been one of the things that would have made her company a great one. Her employees. =But she had failed in that aspect.It had been one of the only things he had seen that clearly ruined her run. If she had put faith in herself and ensured that she solved her company's issues herself, there would have been no need for her to sell

    Chapter 171: The end.

    Xavier stared at the files in his hands and tried not to get too scared by them. There was information on them, more information than he would have felt comfortable ever knowing but he could see what Con was so scared of now. He might even be sure that he had managed to see the things Con had not. To begin with, this world was not what they thought it was.At least it was not all they thought it was. It was much more than they imagined and the fact that Con had somehow managed to stumble on this clearly meant the cosmos was seeking their help, or rather Con's help. Somehow somewhere there was someone or something pushing Con towards making these decisions and he could feel it now. He was sure if he told Jane and Aubrey that they would plan to eat him up alive. Both him and that thing he felt was guiding Con into making the decisions he was making. Their world was under threat, and he would be damned if he just sat back and watched it all crumble.Xavier reached for his phone and tap

    Chapter 170: "That's enough."

    Con watched the hackers he had hired work and he came to the conclusion that he had undoubtedly made a very huge mistake.There was little he could do in terms of making them more coperative and oddly he got the feeling that they wanted to make him frustrated. One of them full on refused to listen to his commands and Con felt the urge to give the man a sound slap at the back of his mind. He had to resist it because the others were already working and from what he could see, they were doing what he wanted them to do. That was enough for him, but what he truly wanted was their total cooperation.From the way they had abandoned their jobs to go chase after money, he knew that he couldn't use them for any of the jobs he would have wished to. Since they had the basic knowledge he would need in the people he wanted to recruit, it would have been better if they had behaved and not messed up that way. It was not like he was that desperate that he would hire them despite whatever they did, but

    Jake looked out his window and tried to assess his surroundings. He could tell people were trying to hack into the cyber security of the the hotel. The alarms had gone off the moment the breach was noticed and he had spent the past one hour trying to calm himself down and not fly into a rage. The fact that whoever this was thought he could mess with him and get away with it felt funny to him.The only problem right now was the issue of intention. The hackers seemed to be aiming for the security controls to switch them off. That was what they had been trying to do in the first place and he felt they might have done it sucesfully if they hadn't diverted to start hacking away at money. If they were petty thieves then he would make them pay. He would make them pay badly for having him all worked up for nothing, but if they posed a greater problem than than that then he would have to solve that problem, probably with the aid of some thugs and torture. He just bought this hotel. It was on

    Xavier watched as Lisa and Clay kept their eyes on him like he was performing some kind of magic trick just sitting down there and doing nothing. He could already tell that it would be a long time before they left him alone and honestly, now he was up to the challenge. There was no way he was going to let them keep him in when he already had something he wanted to do.Lisa could be dealt with. He could persuade her with treats and make her feel he should be let loose to do what he wanted because he was her father and even he would have to admit that he let her loose to do what she wanted too sometimes.Lisa would let him do what he wanted to do because he also let her do what she wanted to do at times. It was an agreement they had both reached and he was sure she would honor her part of their agreement. The one was really worried about was Clay. The fact that the younger male just stood there watching him gave Xavier a funny feeling in his stomach. He and Lisa should have done off t

    Con could swear that he had thought there was a chance of Xavier calling him on the phone and offering his help.He had been expecting that for a day plus now but yet nothing had happened and he was getting skeptical. Was he wrong to expect that his comrade in arms would come to him at this moment? And was he sure that he could pull off this operation with Xavier?Con stared at the building in front of him and turned to look at the others in the car. Two of the maids had revealed themselves to be hackers specially trained by the Black family. It seemed his uncle had also believed that one day he would need the help of such people so he had gathered them, from all walks of life, which to him probably meant the prisons. The man was a cheapskate. He couldn't hire professsionals who would get his job done for him, so instead he went to the prisons and got men and women who had been arrested and convicted of various internet crimes .He had bailed them out, paid the men behind the desk eno

    Chapter 166.

    Lisa stared at her father and tried to assess the level of damage she had done.She had one hand over her mouth and the other helping her prop that arm up.'"When the heck did my father become ebony haired?""Language Lisa.Lisa rolled her eyes and walked over to go stand near Clay."We did this didn't we?"Clay couldn't help the chuckle that escaped his throat. Somehow he had imagined that Lisa would have more information than he would on what was happening to her father. She had asked him to promise that they would both take the fall for whatever happened and when this happened, he suspected she knew about it. No just knew about it but expected it. He would not have been surprised if Lisa expected this to happen, but it seems she had not. She was just as surprised as he was, or she was now a great actress and she was faking all this, but he could tell there was no talent for acting in Lisa so he was sure it was the first one.Lisa was shocked, the same way he had been and it was fu

    Chapter 165: "Is it really hurting that much?"

    "What exactly did Lisa put in to make your hair this color?"Xavier could see Jane was getting distracted already. Her eyes were gleaming as she fingered his lock of hair and he could already see the longing in her.Jane wanted to cut his hair and take it in to be studied. He could proudly say that he had taught Jane as much as he could in the art of detectiving in a science lab. He had taught her how to determine how long a piece of fabric would retain its color if dyed, what mixture of dyes to use and what colors seemed to have an affinity for each other. In part he was a fundamental aspect to the success of Jane's clothing brand and he had felt a bit disappointed when she had abandoned their lab meetings to focus on leading her company, but now he could see that the spark wasn't totally dead yet.She looked at his hair with a clinical eye, from a scientific point of view. Lisa was asleep and he had asked Clay to leave her so she could take the rest she needed. Lisa rarely slept

    Chapter 164: "What's all the staring for?"

    Clay left Lisa in the room and descended to the lab beneath her to check for himself how her father was doing. Maybe it was because he had been there when the man collapsed or maybe because he had been just as scared when it had all happened, but he had a deep feeling of worry for Mr Frost. There wasn't much for him to do concerning the cure Lisa had administered to her father. She seemed sure of it and it seemed the cure had worked the way she said it would.The ice core had been repaired. By a bunch of black petals. It still surprised him as to how that happened but as long as Lisa's father was out of the danger zone then he would be happy. They were in enough confusion as things stood already and more confusion was not something he wanted for any of them. What he wanted at the moment was to confirm that Lisa's father was okay, and if he was then maybe he could ask if they could run a brain scan on Lisa. She had lapsed off into thought again and it was making him feel a bit scared.

    Chapter 163.

    Lisa could feel her heart slam into her chest the moment she heard the question. Her face turned red and she looked away, not because she was ashamed but because she was embarrassed."How the hell can you pop that kind of question on me so casually? Do I look like I have someone on my mind?""You look like you've been hella distracted and when girls are at your age they tend to think of boys twenty four seven. Can you see the reason for my curiosity now?"Lisa rolled her eyes and noticed how close she and Clay were. Closeness between the both of them had never bothered her, Clay was like a brother to her and she was like a sister to him, but he had grown these past few months and she wouldn't say she had failed to notice the changes in herself too. They had both grown a lot and somehow this kind of closeness made her extra aware of that.Everything around them was changing. Not just the climate or global warming, but mostly a lot of the other things, the more important things, the peo
