THE MAN CALLED GOD CASUALTY
“What's wrong?” Alex asked, looking up from the pot while his assistant dabbed off the sweat forming on his forehead. “The guests are more than expected. Every room is occupied.”“Okay, you can seat them in the VVIP halls, and Ethereal quarters for today.”“People are already seated in the VVIP section. A group of politicians came in for lunch and occupied it. And the ethereal section is out of bounds as per your order. But someone powerful came in and was willing to pay the price to open the ethereal hall to find a seat for his group. There's literally no space. And a hundred people are still standing outside in queues by the window, complaining there's no seat, and that the food is taking too long to get to them.”“Send a message to the temporal base. The young men in training should come over here for their public service activities and join in serving the guests. Also, get seats from hirers and buy umbrellas and tents to provide temporary shade for today, while we think of how to
THE MAN CALLED GOD BUILDING A REPUTATION
Alex quickly brought out his medical tools and rushed outside. Already, people were murmuring and lots of them stopped eating to check what happened to the man, to avoid falling a victim.“Could it be an allergy? The man could be allergic to one of the herbs used in the preparation of the dishes.” Alex quickly walked to the man and laid him flat on his back. He wore hand gloves and checked the man's pulse and heart rate. He examined the man's eyes and mouth, and quickly reached for the box. Alex poured an elixir into his mouth and brought out a set of golden acupuncture needles.“Is it food poisoning?” A customer asked.“No.” Alex answered, using internal energy to place the needles on the man's body. He transfused some energy to him and the man coughed up a dark liquid and opened his eyes.Alex withdrew the needles and sterilized them before packing it up.“He ingested a toxic substance a long time ago, which weakened his body and organs. Immediately he took the herbal dishes, the
THE MAN CALLED GOD ETHEREAL HALLS
The problem can wait. You have left the pots unattended for so long. I fear that something might go wrong and ruin these expensive dishes.” Mac said, looking up from the pots he was using intenal energy to stir.“That's right , I need to finish the preparations and let the servers carry them away, before I leave the kitchen.” Alex quickly agreed, walking back to his workstation.He opened all the pots and specialized jugs, causing sweet aromas to Immediately fill up the kitchen. “Wow, just the scent of the dishes alone are rejuvenating my pores. I wonder how potent eating it will be.”“Of course, boss is the best in everything he does.” One of Mac's assistants said, looking up from the steak he was preparing.“Did you remember to marinated the meat in the herbal solution I prepared?” Alex asked, looking at him.“Of course.”“It seems that cooking the mix longer than normal on very low heat brought out the essence of the herbs. But it overshadowed some of the other ingredients.” Alex
THE MAN CALLED GOD HEARTWARMING RESULTS
“The anonymous caller ordered three sets of every available dish in the menu. Including the drinks. They also requested that they be prepared according to the highest VIP standard and packaged. They also deposited the money, promising to send more if it was not enough to cover the costs. And also instructed that a call be put across to them once it's ready.”“Wow. That's a big fish you have there. They deserve the very best service. Run along now. It's probably someone very powerful, hellbent on keeping their identities confidential. Otherwise, they would come here just like the others.”Alex nodded and sighed. The highest order he had ever gotten from a group was two million in the VIP section, most of the groups were just a little over a million. And were mostly interested in the crab and oyster sauce used to increase libido and get rid of erectile dysfunction, kidney strengthening soup that also helps in reproductive health, skin rejuvenating soup for women that value their looks m
THE MAN CALLED GOD FALSE ALARM
Aridan looked at the floor, not wanting to meet Alex's furious glare.“I suddenly noticed that I have not seen her around for nearly an hour. So, I began to look for her. But, after nearly twenty minutes of searching the restaurant with some others, I still didn't find her.” He muttered, making Alex clench and unclench his fists as all manner of thoughts went through his mind. His numerous enemies wouldn't take long to realize that he was the man behind food haven, and one of them probably sneaked in, taking advantage of the huge crowd and the extremely busy staff to take her away. Even worse was the fact that his identity was not as protected as he thought, if the Vanderbilt girl knows who he was, there's no guarantee that other people out there don't know him too. Ariella could have also wandered out of the restaurant and met a mishap because there was no one watching her. She could have also seen a familiar kid among the guests and run off with him or her. The possibilities were nu
THE MAN CALLED GOD A WEAKNESS THAT RUNS DEEP
Luz nodded.“It was me. I mutilated my voice.”“Do you realize that you might have put her in deeper danger because of your rash actions?”Luz smiled.“I had everything figured out. If she was hiding somewhere we didn't think about, she would realize that we're searching for her and return. If she was held hostage, her kidnappers would panic because of the announcement and make mistakes. They will rush to leave the premises, running into the waiting arms of the guards at the exit. Besides, no one knows she's Ariella. Everyone will think it's one of the guests, that was why I used the words ‘your parents are looking for you'. Nothing would have happened.” Luz said confidently, locking the door.Alex sighed. He realized that he couldn't refute Luz's reasoning. His analysis was spot on.Alex's smart watch vibrated and he quickly pressed a button and brought his wrist closer to his ears.“Boss, where are you? It's almost time for the interview with the reporters and bloggers.” Raz said, t
THE MAN CALLED GOD WHEN THINGS GO WRONG
“What's wrong?” Alex asked, following her line of sight.“Why is it still standing?” she whispered, looking at his waist regionAlex chuckled.“You don't have to worry about that, I won't make you eat it again. The one I had is enough to cool my head. Stop looking at me though, it turns me on when you do.” He whispered and quickly reached for his clothes.*****Alex walked into the conference room's backstage, wearing a black suit, which made him look more dashing. His hair was neatly styled back; expensive watch, rings, and special bracelets made with very rare and precious materials. His expensive designer shoe from his own personal designer was sparkling, adding to his charms. Although he was wearing all black, everyone had to agree they looked great on him. Eleanor was beside him, wearing a blue floor length gown and crystal heels. Her neck was adorned with stately jewelry made of platinum, an unknown metal, and sapphires, matching her blue gown perfectly. She was also wearing mat
THE MAN CALLED GOD CONTROVERSIAL FAMILY
Alex drew closer to her and held her with a calm smile.“No, she's not that kind of person. I met Eleanor after the men hired by Mia failed to kill me. I met her while I was on the run, and thanks to her, the hatred and distrust in my heart which I had towards women after facing Mia's betrayal faded away. Perhaps, if fate didn't bring me to Eleanor, my disgust torwards women might have continued. But thanks to her, I realized that there were still good women in this world. That's why I'm incredibly grateful, and sorry. I met her at the darkest point in my life, she was my miracle.”“Wow, her sacrifices really paid off, and she's reaping the fruit of her patience. As always, her foresight is superb, unlike Mia.” Eleanor staggered again, and Alex quickly caught and steadied her.The reporter was implying that Eleanor knew she would gain from Alex's bright future, making her wait patiently. She was a gold digger just like Mia, just that their approaches were different.“Now that Miss Ca

THE MAN CALLED GOD
“Ariel, take and leave. The kids should be preserved. I will stay with Hera and Luz to continue the defense.” Yu Xue said, tightening her hand on her weapon. “Don't be stupid. Kaiser is still young and can't live without his mom. Leave now or I tie you up!” Luz barked, his aura intimidating her. “Big sister, young master is right. You need to follow Kaiser. He can't live without parents at his age. Besides, the family needs a mother figure. Luz is the head of the family now in the absence of hubby. You have to listen to him. His plans are good. In that way, we won't lose too much. All hope is not lost. You guys should wait in the basement first. Once it's clear we can't turn it around, you guys can leave.” Hera whispered, patting Yu Xue. Ariel and Aridan dragged her away while Ariella picked up Kaiser. “Emrys, Ikaris, and Raz, go with them. They need powerful cultivators to protect them. Tajana, Dolion, Shadow, madam Hera and the rest, stay with me to defend the base. At least, the
THE SIEGE; BATTLE OF TITANS FINALE
“What's wrong?” Alex asked, walking into the house. He was in one of the labs working when he heard the commotion in the house and Bing Yu Xue crying. He made his way to the front and his heart skipped multiple beats. Ariel was lying on the sofa with purple veins visible on his body. His eyes had turned white and he was changing into an unknown beast. “They were just on their way back after going to Food Haven when a group of powerful evil cultivators appeared, trying to kidnap Ariel. But they were unable to do so because he was strong and couldn't be easily taken away. They used poison to overpower him, just before Luz and I arrived at the scene. He instantly became like this. This is soul devouring poison which was enhanced with a curse. Luz said there was no cure. That's why…” Aridan muttered. Bing Yu Xue slapped Alex at that moment, surprising everyone. “Big sister just died because of you, and now her only son is like this. Outside everyone calls you god but you're jus
DOLION'S RETURN
“The identity of Lord Dracula has been exposed. He's none other than Alexander Winthrop, the former heir who was kicked out. This grand reveal happened after the Winthrop family suddenly met with tragedies, with lots of the members choosing to commit suicide after all that was revealed. It was said that they killed Lord Dracula's wife, making him go crazy and order their destruction. But is this right? Why not handle it legally instead of killing? Is Lord Dracula losing control? Is he going crazy? Having all that power without control will only have a negative effect. Let's hear from the audience.” “Although Lord Dracula was harsh, but there were evidence that the affected members were engaged in different crimes. He would have still punished them even without them killing his wife. Besides, what man will keep silent after such a thing? Unless he doesn't love the woman or have enough power to protect her.” “Um, Lord Dracula has always protected the masses. A little mistake won't ov
YOU'RE A USELESS FATHER
Alex stood with Eleanor in his arms and immediately disappeared, going back to his house. Ikaris and his team, who were waiting outside, swooped in and rescued the people being held. The remnants of the evil group, like guards, were also quickly disposed of. Shadow led another group to the various camps/ lab which Nicanor was using for his illegal research. It was comparatively easy because Alex had killed off the top powerful members of the organization when he went berserk. Even if the goddess finds a body to possess and returns, rebuilding her power won't be that easy. ***** Alex appeared before the mansion with Eleanor in his arms, Bing Yu Xue, Aridan, Raz, Tajana and the kids were outside waiting for them. Tajana, Luz and Ariel were listening to the battle through their headset connected to the control tower. So they heard everything that happened. “How is big sister?” Bing Yu Xue whispered rushing forth. “Get out of my way!” Alex roared, shocking everyone. Even the pla
NO REGRETS; I STILL LOVE YOU
Alex kicked open the door and entered the warehouse. His heart was shaking, and he had felt sick ever since he called the men at Food Haven and discovered that indeed, Eleanor went to meet a client and never returned. He slowly moved forward into the modified warehouse, keeping his ears open for any ambush. The warehouse looked ordinary to the eyes, but Alex could tell it was a detached space right away. He had barely walked deep into the warehouse when he saw Eleanor tied up in a chair. Both her limbs were bound to the chair, and her mouth was held with a tape, her eyes blindfolded. There were bloody marks all over her body, fresh blood steadily dripped down from her right hand, and there was a huge bump on her temple, alongside brusises and blood patches. “It has only been a few hours yet they tortured her to this state.” He muttered in horror, taking a step forth. A red line suddenly appeared before him, stopping him from advancing. At once, he looked up and saw Nicholas ho
KIDNAPPED
“What happened?” Alex whispered, turning to him. “We just received a message telling you to appear in a location within one hour, or else they will send your woman's body to you. That was what the message said.”Alex frowned. “Kaiser and his mom are still inside, right?” He whispered, watching them nod.“Then tell them not to go out for some time. Wait, Ariel, where's your mom?” Alex suddenly asked, the relief he felt a second ago had disappeared without warning. “Um, she went out early in the morning to Food Haven. Since the new wine company was launched with the mysterious wine, Food Haven's orders has drastically multiplied. Also, mom has expanded to other countries and has four branches altogether. So, she's pretty busy nowadays. She should be in Food Haven, getting work done.” Ariel whispered with a proud smile, happy that his mom achieved so much in just a few years. Alex's contributions cannot be over looked, especially in terms of the recipes and training of cooks. Even the
ASCENDING GOD REALM/ LORD OF CHAOS RETURNS
Alex rained down punches on the wall of the bathroom, feeling frustrated. He was so close to taking everyone of the bastards down but he just had to chicken out at the last minute. Nicanor’s mocking voice kept reverberating in his ears. ‘Hahahaha! You're so predictable, dear brother. God my ass! You're too soft to achieve anything exceptional. You will always be one step behind.’Alex looked at his reflection, wiping the mist off the mirror. “What's wrong with me? Am I getting weaker? Or did I became plain useless? How can I lose focus of the bigger picture for trivialities? At this rate, they will block me with children each time we face off.” He felt someone hugging him from behind and stopped, turning to look at the intruder hugging him from behind. “Although I don't know where you went to, I guess you were not successful.” Eleanor whispered, caressing him. Even though she doesn't know exactly what Alex does, over the years, she had come to accept that he was not some evil mafi
THE CLONE
The one on the bed gave him a familiar smirk, one which Alex knew too well because he always does that when he's facing an enemy he disdains. “How did this happen? How did my DNA get here, to the extent that they got enough to create a clone? What happened?” He muttered, his mind working like a clock. His memory flashed to Kristen, the banished female disciple who tried to steal his sperm. He had not heard from her in years, making him forget about her. But this can only be her handiwork. “I thought that she was caught and thwarted. What the fuck is going on here? How did Nicanor get a hold of my DNA?” Before Alex could make sense of what was happening, the clone swung a punch at him. The punch was powerful and packed with a familiar technique. Alex quickly parried the blow, surprised to see that their strength was somehow equal. In just a minute, they have exchanged a dozen moves, and each time, the clone copied him, using his techniques to replicate attacks. “It seems that it's
LAB OF DISASTER
“When are you going to let me check your memories? We're running out of time and we don't even know the master mind?” It was Alex talking to the ghost he captured from the construction site. “Go ahead. Since I'm already dead, it shouldn't matter if I lose my consciousness afterwards.” The ghost answered, and floated out of the area where Alex kept it confined. “I won't let you get hurt. I will protect you till the moment you feel like crossing into the spirit realm.” Alex whispered solemnly and started the process. ****By the time Alex was done, he was left totally speechless. The leader of the band of evil, the doctor who always had a mask on his face, the very one who seemed to have the same status as the evil goddess, was none other than his step brother, Nicanor. Karen was just a figurehead used to attack Alex at intervals and all he did so far was on Nicanor’s orders. “No wonder the figure looked familiar to me, it's my snake brother. He pretended he's not interested in powe
