THE GOD OF MERCENARY'S NEW LIFE. Chapter 67: "Checkmate."
Dinner in the Olsen home was shaping out to be a morbid affair. Con found himself sneering at how much vegetables he was staring at. It was a lot of green, and not the juicy and sweet type of green like apples.This was steam cooked vegetable green. Like they were serving goats instead of humans.Or maybe the whole family was vegetarian?Con grabbed another apple and sank his teeth into it.Unless these people brought out some real food, he wouldn't be eating any of the things set at this table.They could have their cabbages for all he cared.Con could feel the eyes of everyone at the table on him. His hair was slicked back again and he was looking dashing.He was dressed in green and gold. He carried himself with the grace of a young master and he sneered at anyone that sneered at him.Miranda had told him to avoid eye contact with anyone at the table, but so far he had stuck his tongue out at the man who sat at the head of the table and flipped the middle finger to the man who wa

Con cleared his throat."So this is how we're going to do this. I am now in control of your family's mega advanced artificial intelligence system. It will kill who I want it to kill, but I guess I don't really need to explain this right?"The silence at the table was resounding and Con chuckled as he nodded his head.Good thing they all understood quickly and they were scared for their lives.He continued."The AI has been programmed to kill whoever makes the slightest move, so I won't advise you to move too much, and as for the part where you're confused about what is happening, I'll explain later. For now, I need the cards."Con watched everyone at the table and noted each expression that flickered past on their faces. They didn't let too much emotion show but one thing was obvious, they were scared.He felt like laughing.Con let his eyes drift over to Xavier and he nodded to him.A high pitched whirring sound was heard and the next minute, the smell of sweet lemons invaded the wh

Xavier dropped the arm of the man he had behind him and rushed over to his boss.Con seemed frozen in place and it was obvious he wasn't expecting this.Xavier smiled.His boss had been expecting everything.They had come up with the plan last night and set to executing it this morning. Con had him sleep in the bed with Miss Olsen while he went out to go snooping around the Olsen house.He had reconfigured the artificial intelligence that controlled the affairs of the house and set himself as its master.He had promised the lady that he wouldn't bring any guns on his person and he had fulfilled that promiseThe cards would give the lady control of the AI and Xavier had suspected this would happen. He had told Con this would happen, and it seemed his boss had known too.Miranda Olsen was a victim in her own way, a victim of the world and of an unfortunate love. She had been victim to a family that didn't like her and siblings who sought to take what was hers, but with every victim s
THE GOD OF MERCENARY'S NEW LIFE. Chapter 70: "Good morning boss."
Con fell asleep in the car and had a dream.In the dream, his mother sang to him while he was still a baby in his cot. In her hand was a pentagon-like object. She waved it in front of his little baby hands and smiled her beautiful smile down at him.The dark object gleamed with an eerie light and Con found himself waking up with unrivaled calm and peace of mind.The day was just starting and he was already getting confused.Con sighed and sat up on the bed.His head was hurting and his eyes burned.He had fallen asleep last night on the way to Glover city. It was either Xavier had gotten them lost or the path they took through the forest had elongated the journeyHe could feel his back aching from how long he had to sit and endure the journey. He had slept off at some point after the moon came out.But that wasn't a problem now. As long as he was back in Glover city and he was back to his normal life.Con scrunched up his face as those words passed through his head.Why was everywher

Xavier returned with a plate of rice and meat broth. Con sat down on the floor with his man and looked around as he took the food from Xavier. Just the scent of it made his stomach rumble more and he glared at Xavier as he noted the smile on the man's face. "Laugh at me and you'll find yourself six feet under." The smile on Xavier's face disappeared almost immediately and he cleared his throat as he handed his boss the spoon. "Breakfast is served, boss." Con sneered and tried not to throttle the other man. "While I'm eating, feel free to explain to me why I'm a thousand miles away from Glover city." Con heard Xavier gulp and he put a huge helping of the meat broth on the side of the plate of rice. In the military, they had eaten all sorts of foods. He could eat literally anything, his digestive system was that strong. Besides, the light brown meat broth smelled delicious. Con almost moaned when he brought a spoonful of rice to his mouth. The broth made it taste heavenly, just
THE GOD OF MERCENARY'S NEW LIFE. Chapter 72: "i found it on my bed this morning."
Over the course of the night, Xavier explained some things to his boss.To begin with, he was no longer Constantine Easton.He was now Derek Aer.Con had rolled his eyes at that but he seemed to understand why that was happening. Miranda Olsen knew him as Constantine Easton. It would only be safe to assume her brothers would also know of that fact and that wouldn't be good in any case.Con had found himself wondering about the Olsen brothers.Aleon and Ash Olsen. Two very not dangerous people who were actually dangerous, and the last one whose name he did not know but who was a dangerous person all the same.Xavier had said something about them.More like a plea than anything else."You are not under any circumstances to seek out any of them, please boss."Along with that, there was also the fact that he was no longer in Glover city. He wasn't with Aubrey or Jane, he wasn't around Adeline and so he would have to lay low and keep a low profile for now.Again, Con immediately understood

Jake Caswell smiled at the lady in front of him."She'll do perfectly."The man at his side bowed and snapped his fingers twice. The men who stood behind the lady nodded and grabbed the strings of her dress.Though tears streamed down her face, she still turned around and with that action, the makeshift dress she was wearing came undone and pooled at her feet.Jake smiled even more at that and he rubbed his palms together.She was perfect. She was beautifully perfect.Hazel eyes and dark hair, pale white skin and an hourglass figure.An almost perfect mirror of Miranda Olsen, but of course different in her own way."I'll be paying for her in full. Get her ready and send her over to my place."Jake saw the man behind him nod again and knew it was settled. He would be getting his slave and he would use her in whatever way he wished.There was one exact way he planned to use her though. And it was as bait. He would use her as bait to lure that fool he had seen at the party with Jane o
THE GOD OF MERCENARY'S NEW LIFE. Chapter 74: "How to set a military base on fire."
Jane scrunched her face up at what she was seeing."This can't be right, can it?"She watched as the lady behind her simply shrugged and collapsed on the chair behind her.Aubrey seemed tired. She looked tired too.If she was to guess, she would say Aubrey Van Damne was tired of looking for Con, but so far she hadn't shown any hints of that. Something else was bothering her at the moment. Jane suspected she already knew what that was."You ex husband is back isn't he?"Aubrey only nodded her head and let out a sigh. For the past week now, John had been paying regular visits to her house just so he could threaten her again. According to him, his parents wanted his son back, the same son he had disowned and called a bastard.Aubrey could feel tears welling up in her eyes as she thought of that but she tried to swallow them back and focus on what was at hand first.Con was still missing. Even more so now.The news article that went viral on the internet a while back had revealed that 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
