THE GOD OF MERCENARY'S NEW LIFE. Chapter 154: "This arrived for you."
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
THE GOD OF MERCENARY'S NEW LIFE. Chapter 156: "Okay then."
Clay only blinked back at him and Xavier could tell that he was not getting through to the boy.Or Maybe Clay just wanted to act like that even though he clearly understood all that been said. In whatever case it may be, he was here because he had done the things he had to do and this had been something he had to do.He was only spying on this one room, the other rooms were left unmonitored and he doubted he would ever have the urge to monitor them. The only thing he wanted to see was this conversation. Now that he had seen it, he was quite done with it and he would rather focus on something more important, or rather something more pressing.Clay stood there, almost grown into a full grown man though still retaining his youthfulness in the brightness of his eyes and in the way he seemed to always be distracted by one thing or the other in very short spans of time.Lisa was almost also like that, so he was glad that his daughter would not be the odd one out, but at the same time, it c
THE GOD OF MERCENARY'S NEW LIFE. Chapter 157: "Goodbye."
Con stared at the ceiling in front of him.He could tell that the position he had been placed in was an intentionally difficult one. Jane and Aubrey were giving him ultimatums. Them or the world. It was hard for him to decide on something like that. It wasn't he wanted to leave them, and it wasn't like he wanted them to feel like they didn't have him anymore.But even they would have to admit that they lived in this world. And they didn't just live in it, they survived in it. Them and countless others.If Horizon was the kind of world threatening organization he could feel they were, then no one would be safe. Not him, not them, not their kids. They would all be at risk and in danger and that was the one thing he did not want for them. He wanted them to still stay in this world.If he had the power to stop whatever was coming now, then the right decision would be for him to stop it. There would be nothing to hold him back now that they were all like this.If Jane and Aubrey were to le
THE GOD OF MERCENARY'S NEW LIFE. Chapter 158: "All of you, get out."
Jake watched the ladies as they swarmed around him. They looked pretty, they were pretty. Big breasted and wide hipped ladies. They all swarmed around him like he was the center of their universe, and he guessed that in a way he was.They were here to satisfy him and if they didn't then he would kill them. They had enough sense to know that he wasn't the type of person to consider any kind of morals or compassion. He would stomp on anyone who was in his way and who didn't do what he wanted.The question here now was if these ladies would be among the firsts to encounter that or if they would satisfy him the way he wanted.He knew some things of what the rich sometimes did when they were in need of release. Not just the rich but the dementedly rich. He knew some of the things they did to those they engaged in sexual acts with, and he wasn't inclined to try all of it out, but he wanted to try some of it.At least one or two of those methods had popped into his mind just now as he
THE GOD OF MERCENARY'S NEW LIFE. Chapter 159: "is that snow?"
Jane and Aubrey arrived at Frost mansion with sullen and downcast faces. They had been unsuccessful at getting to Con. He had still insisted on the fact that what he was doing was too dangerous for any of them to attempt.If he involved them in it then there would be no going back and he didn't want that to happen to them. He didn't want them to be at perpetual risk and he would know that he had been the reason they were in that state.He said he would rather lose them and that had been the end of it. They had both stood up, picked Lisa from the conservatory and even though she had asked to be allowed to stay for a few more minutes. She had been firmly refused and asked to get into the car.Now they were back at Xavier's place and Jane was trying to put on a brave face but she was failing miserably.She felt like she had just lost some part of herself. She was annoyed, and angry, and feeling foolish, so so foolish.There was no way she would allow this to ever happen again. She would

"Mr Frost?"Xavier could hear nothing. "Mr Frost, snap out of it."The panic in Clay's voice was more than audible enough for anyone listening to hear it, but no one was around and the only one who could hear him panicking was the source of his panic.Xavier Frost was laying on the floor and blue energy was leaking out his body and freezing everything in the atmosphere. It was not a fun sight to see.Even the air around them was now thicker and laden with frost. There was no way to speak without seeing it in the air, and there was no way to not notice it. The door had been frozen shut, the windows would not open because they had been sealed with ice. The room they were in was one that bore ice everywhere, even on the walls.There was something scary about all that.Clay felt his panic threatening to overide his senses and he tried taking deep breaths so he could calm down. It would all work out fine.All he had to do was disable the ice core right? Wrong.He could not disable the

Con stared at the information he had compiled on his screen and he wondered where he should head off to first.The information he had on Horizon was very sparse and there was no way for him to getmore n such a short time as this. The wokers in the home had helped him secure information on when and how the recent landings in Glover city had taken place.According to them all flights had landed at the airports except for one that had happened a few days ago. The air craft that had landed carried two people, one of them a person who had grown up on the island and who had recently disappeared from under their radar, while the other was someone who had come with that person.Jake Caswell had come to Glover city and there was no doubt he would soon start searching for them. There was also no doubt that he'd keep on making life a bit hellish for them and so he was someone they would have to watch out for. It was almost with a pang of pain that he remembered there was no more "we" or "us". H

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

Chapter 168: "I'm going up to my room."
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

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.

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
