Ellen glares at Rose and tightens the grip on her hands. Rose screamed in pain when Ellen crushed her bone.“AHHHH!!” Rose screamed in excruciating pain. Ellen stands up with letting go of her wrist and twists her arm to her back. Ellen aggressively grips her hair and makes her look up.“You don’t learn, do you?” Ellen said and shove Rose to the ground. Rose looks up only to meet Ellen’s blazing star. The room felt so heavy and hot all of a sudden and she seemingly can’t breathe properly.It must be Ellen’s power aura that’s working, she thought. Rose's throat went dry and couldn’t even utter a word because of Ellen’s intent to kill demeanour. Rose tried to get away from Ellen, still facing him. She thought that if she even turned her back to him or looked away for a second, she could be swallowed whole by Ellen’s power and kill her in an instant.Unaware, she kept retreating, inadvertently placing her injured wrist on the ground to support her as she moved away from Ellen.“F*CCKK!!”
Sophie is walking through the kitchen and craving a yoghourt drink. Emilia is right beside her opening the fridge. “Did Ellen get home last night?” she asks Emilia. Sophie leans on the counter table while waiting for her drink.Emilia opens the yoghourt drink and passes it to Sophie, “Yes. He just went back to the company right after he got home and took a shower.” Sophie nodded, gulping down the strawberry flavoured drink. As she puts down the drink on the counter, she notices her belly. She rubbed it gently.“Do you think I should lose weight? I’ve been eating non stop for the past couple weeks.” Emilia chuckled and cut some apples while chatting with her.“You don’t need to do that. Ms. Sophie. You look great.” Emilia said while passing her a plate of sliced apples.“But…I feel like I gained weight. Do you really think I look great?” Sophie is starting to get worried. Emilia knows how emotional and anxious first-time mothers are. She read in the book that first time mothers often
Ellen is holding a meeting with the board members of the company when Vox stormed in with a panic in his eyes.“Mr. President!” Vox rushed towards Ellen and whispered, “Sophie is missing,” Ellen immediately stands up from his chair and the whole board members look at him with a confused look.Ellen looks at his board members with a stunned look, “Meeting is adjourned. We will reschedule this once again.” Ellen declared while clenching his jaw. Ellen couldn't contain his anxiety and stormed out of the meeting room, immediately dialling Sophie's phone number. However, each attempt resulted in a failed connection. “Pick up!” Frustration surged through Ellen, his curses whispered under his breath echoing in the hallway. He tried multiple times, his agitation growing with each unsuccessful attempt. Finally, unable to contain his anger any longer, Ellen hurled his phone to the ground, the device shattering with the force of his frustration. "God damn it!" he exclaimed, his mind swirlin
Ellen takes the opportunity to jump down inside the basement before the enemies get to their senses. Ellen takes all the men down with his weapon and clears the room. Vox jumped inside the basement and turned on his flashlight. Vox looks around to locate the light switch and turn it on. The lights turned on and Ellen scanned the whole area but there’s no sign of Sophie anywhere. The basement is empty, no doors or windows.“Fuck, there’s nothing here.” Vox cursed. Vox turns to see Ellen, but he stops himself from approaching him.Ellen is staring at the wall in front of him with dead eyes, his fingers ready to trigger the gun in his hands. The way Ellen looks right now might be mistaken for being composed but only people who know him can tell that Ellen is at his limit now. His patience is wearing thin and when his commander loses all control, he won’t spare any life that’s on his way. He will eliminate everyone on sight. Vox swallowed hard before he radioed every unit, "Any leads or
“Let’s get into the details later and let the doctor check up on you first,” Sophie nodded, and Ellen called the doctor. Everyone rushed inside the room when they heard Sophie is finally awake. Ellen frowned when Emilia and Vox were catching their own breath when they reached Sophie’s room. “What the hell are you two doing?” Ellen gave them a cold stare and Vox stepped back. What Sophie didn’t know is that when she’s been sleeping, everyone is walking on thin ice because Ellen is on edge. He’s worried about Sophie’s safety and blaming himself. His moods are unpredictable, Vox and Emilia couldn’t settle down because Ellen’s been shouting and wrecking the whole mansion because of his mood swings.The doctor approaches Sophie and scans her and her baby. The doctor smiled at Sophie, “As I've said before, you don’t have to worry because she’s completely fine as well as the baby.” He said to Ellen."After you made her drink the tear of the goddess, her regeneration abilities are above hu
The ministers and Ellen’s advisor joined the meeting via hologram and settled into the empty seats in Ellen’s office.“Begin,” Ellen commanded.Emilia rose and placed the papers in front of Ellen and Vox. “Since we couldn’t identify them and unfortunately we couldn’t capture their leader, we traced back to where these people came from,” Emilia started.She activated the hologram and displayed the location where Sophie was abducted. “We traced the ownership of the van, but it was reported stolen two months before the incident,” she reported. “The van was located on the east side. The people who stole the vehicle are people who sell stolen goods in underground markets.”Ellen analysed all Emilia’s report, “Did you manage to trace the buyer of the van?" he inquired, his tone grave.“Yes, Commander. Unfortunately, it was purchased by a third party, and their identity remains unknown. However, we were able to track the van's location from two months ago," Emilia responded.The display swit
Chapter 74When Ellen and Vox arrived at the camp near the Mortavia Kingdom’s borders, Lyric and two men guarding her approached Ellen and Vox in front of the Command post.“Commander,” Lyric said, bowing along with her guards. "Where's Emilia?" Vox shook his head in response to Lyric's question.“I assigned her to guard Sophie back at Kester. Report to me about the situation here.” Ellen ordered. Lyric led Ellen into the commander’s tent where it serves as the central hub for planning, coordination, and decision making. The two guards remained outside as Ellen, Vox, and Lyric gathered around the table at the center of the tent. Ellen observed the map spread out before them, noticing the markings indicating troop positions.Lyric began her report, detailing the current status of their forces and the surrounding terrain. "Commander, our troops are positioned strategically along the borders," she explained, pointing to various markers on the map. "We've identified potential chokepoints
Chapter 75After burning the whole Kingdom of Martavia, Ellen ordered to go back to the camp. Ellen was the last one to enter the camp, everyone was clapping and cheering at Ellen with Vox, Lyric, and Natalia on his side. Ellen purses his lips and proceeds to his tent. Ellen has a serious look on his face that made Lyric and Vox exchange glances at each other. They thought that their commander had found something when he entered the castle of Martavia.“What is it, Commander?” Lyric quickly asked. She was curious as to why their commander was like this and not celebrating their win. Ellen paused before responding “I found something unsettling in the castle. As I burned the chambers of the Goddess of death descendant, when I entered, I saw a sleeping woman.” Ellen stated. Ellen clasped his hand as he looked directly at the people in front of him.“The descendant isn’t a human but made of wax.” Ellen said. All of them look shocked at the grave news Ellen just dropped.“What do you thi
