Ren grimaced as the call ended, his lips quivering as he grew tense, unsure of how to share what he'd heard with the lieutenant.

“So?” The lieutenant probed, leaving him no choice but to turn and respond.

“Sir, I regret to inform you that I cannot comply with your demands. The founder stated that he wouldn't agree to your terms. Furthermore, he advised you to understand that the Rion family has significant influence here. They have had generals in their lineage for three generations and have contributed much to our country. If you decide to act rashly, you will hear the consequences.”

Ren was practically begging on his knees as he spoke.

Although the Rion family did not fear these soldiers, he certainly did.

Moreover, the lieutenant before him represented none other than Elijah Silva, the King of the North.

Nonetheless, Ren sweated profusely as his heart pounded.

The Lieutenant’s expression turned grim as he called Thomas to inform him of the situation.

Thomas was naturally outraged w

    Darnell didn't even get the chance to finish his explanation as Arnold slapped him again.Arnold was so frustrated that he could hardly control himself.He pointed at Darnell and shouted. “You imbecile, that bitch Helena behaves like an idiot who looks down on everyone!... Do you even know what she did that forced the King of the North to wish to terminate her contract?”“That…”“Shut it!” Arnold bellowed. “One of her men pushed the daughter of the King of the North and got her injured. However, instead of apologizing and making amends, she went as far as to threaten the King of the North, vowing to use her clout to turn the public opinion against him!... A national hero!... What level of insanity is that!?”“This…” Darnell could hardly believe his ears, his eyes widened in shock as he stared at Arnold.“Now do you understand what she's gotten herself into?... Do you think she can get away with treating the King of the North like that?... The three War Gods our country has all recogni

    “No, how can this be happening?” Helena said in a panic as she failed to log into her social media accounts.With no other choice, she remarked. “I need to call my godfather about this.” She desperately tried calling her godfather and when he finally answered, he scolded her. “Why are you calling me now?... Look at what you got yourself into.”“But…”“Don't ever call me again!”The call abruptly ended, leaving Helena dumbfounded before she broke down in tears.She scrolled through her contact list to call one person after another but they were unreachable or avoiding her.Realizing belatedly what was going on, Helena collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down her face. She stared at Elijah desperately, sobbing as she asked. “Who are you?... Why are you doing this to me?”Some looked at Elijah with confusion while others looked at him with fear.They wondered who he was and how he possessed such overwhelming influence.Elijah's gaze turned icy as he locked eyes with Helena. “Who a

    “How many people are inside the hotel at the moment?” Elijah asked with Leo responding.“There are more than three hundred people currently, sir. I've already instructed our men to put together a name list of all the people there. The mercenaries are yet to make a move for now. However, I believe it will take less than ten minutes for them to seize control of the hotel after the hotel's management is fully subdued. Their goal is to hold the city to ransom to force us to make a choice.”The rebels and Elijah were bound by a blood feud.Elijah had annihilated more than a hundred thousand rebels on the battlefield in the past so it was expected that they would wish to have their pound of flesh.“Who is leading the mercenaries?”“The Sixth Disaster, Chronos.”Elijah's expression darkened as he remarked. “Understood, gather all the troops and meet me there.”“Yes, general!”Once the call dropped, Elijah rushed out of the bedroom only to find Claire standing outside, clutching her doll.“Da

    Currently, in the lobby of Imperial Business Hotel, a number of people are sitting and talking in the second-floor lobby of the hotel, engaged in various types of discussions ranging from business to personal.Alice was also kneeling on the second floor and had begun to feel restless as it had already been some time and her client hadn't arrived.The worst part was that she had tried to call him but he wasn't picking up. Did this mean that he was no longer interested in the business deal?Alice hoped that wasn't the case.Taking a deep breath to calm her nerves, she pulled out her phone and sent a text to the client to ask if he was close, however, her phone showed that the text couldn't be sent due to a lack of network.Puzzled as she was, she tried to send another, but the same prompt came up, causing her to realize that there was a problem with the network server in the hotel.“Uhmm…” she looked around for a worker to ask if there was something wrong with the network server in the

    As Chronos communicated with the burly man in a foreign language, Alice froze as she recognized the language as the national language of the nation, Crimea.According to what was known to the public, Crimea shared a border with Avalon and was a known rival.What was known to a few knowledgeable fellows, though, was that not only were they rivals, but Crimea had been the ones financing the chaos at the northern border by funding the rebels and helping them with weapons as well as fighters.To think that Crimea had not given up just yet. Just then, a young man next to Alice muttered. “Pretty girl, can you tell?... These men are from Blackrock. If I'm not mistaken, that man over there is a decorated general from Crimea and also a member of the Thirteen Disasters, Chronos, otherwise known as The Freak of Time.”“How do you know that?”The young man chuckled. “I have my ways. If I could guess, he has taken us hostage in an attempt to force the War God out of hiding so he would kill him.”

    Everyone was shocked at the mention of the War God, after all, he was known across the entire country as a hero and the reason the war in the north came to an end.“Where is the War God?”“Please save our children and family!”As everyone began to see some light at the end of the tunnel, an armored vehicle arrived at the scene.A fully armed young man wearing a uniform with a pair of dark goggles jumped down from the vehicle.He was accompanied by Thomas, who acted like a subordinate in his presence.Seeing one of the Thirteen warriors, the Commissioner quickly deduced the identity of the young man, prompting him to take two steps back and remark. “The War God is here!... Let him speak!”Everyone's gaze landed on the young man with most wondering if he was truly the War God of legend.They expected an older person, but the person before them appeared to be in his twenties.Regardless, for the Commissioner to say he was the War God and for Thomas to acknowledge that this meant that it

    Thomas words were enough to shock even the police officers because they weren't used to such aggressive words.They were even worried that his anger would end up worsening the situation.Imagine their surprise when Chronos says nothing back, instead moving to show himself on the balcony of the hotel.One of the snipers that the police had brought along was foolish enough to try and snipe him only for the bullet to be repelled like it was a pebble.Chronos glared at the offending party and a moment later, the individual let out an agonizing scream before passing out.“Damn it!” The police commissioner was about to order his men to shoot, but Thomas spoke up.“If any police officer dares to shoot, kill them.” The order silenced the commissioner and the policemen he was ordering.None of them expected Thomas to say such a thing.Wasn't he just antagonizing both parties at this point?But then Thomas didn't bother explaining as he stared at Chronos with the latter looking back at him.

    Thomas first observed his surroundings before he replied. “I'm here so that you won't harm the hostages, but I'd like to let you know that this is meaningless.”“Heh.” Chronos chuckled. “It may be meaningless to you, but it's very important to me. Now you are the one being held captive, not the other way around.”After saying that, he ordered his men. “Tie him up and put him with the rest!”Immediately, the mercenaries did as instructed as they fetched some rope and tied Thomas up before pushing him into the crowd of hostages.After he sat down, he turned around and continued to scan his surroundings.His appearance caused the hostages to feel slightly more relaxed.At the very least, they could see that the relevant bodies were indeed working out towards rescuing them.Meanwhile, Chronos, still sitting on the sofa, took a look at the time and announced. “Tell the others that if Elijah doesn't show up within the next three hours, we'll kill all the hostages and charge out of here.”“Y

    The two bodyguards surrounding Rex were instantly kicked away with two loud bangs before landing hard on the clean floor of the airport.They even skidded away a long distance.“How dare you lay a hand on my friend, Mordred Abnomar? Do you want to have your legs broken too?”The cold and merciless voice filled the air, making Mordred’s expression immediately change.“Eli… Elijah Silva?!” His heart was beating wildly as he looked at the familiar young man who suddenly appeared in front of him, filled with disbelief.“Elijah, you’re here!” After hearing Elijah speak, Rex immediately looked over with a look of surprise and hurried toward him.When Mordred saw that Rex was acquainted with Elijah, his heart sank to rock bottom.He suddenly remembered that Rex seemed to have asked him if he was sent by Elijah when they first met.But at the time, he didn’t quite care.He finally realized that Rex was referring to his arch-nemesis, Elijah Silva!Elijah turned to face Rex and asked in concern

  • Don't push your luck

    Mordred said indignantly, “No, my son’s condition is very serious, and we can’t afford to delay treatment any longer! How about this? I’ll give you another six million dollars now to make it ten million! When my son’s legs get better, I’ll give you another four million!”Rex was really enraged this time. “Can’t you understand English? It’s not about money! Get out of the way!”Then he turned around and tried to bypass them.“No, you can’t leave!” Mordred’s face turned gloomy, and he waved his hand. Both his bodyguards trapped Rex in between them, preventing him from leaving.Mordred narrowed his eyes slightly and said slowly, “Dr. Holding, I’ve already told you just now that the Abnomars are one of the top families in the country. And I will soon be the next helmsman of the family, and my son will become my successor. You understand what I mean, right?... Although I don’t want to use power to oppress you, my son has a noble status that no one in Crystal Falls can compare to! So I don’

  • A forceful request

    Over the past few years, his attainments in the field of medicine had been rather high, and his fame had risen again and again along with it.He often had many people coming up to him all of a sudden to try to get to know her or ask her to help treat someone, so she had been rather annoyed.Generally speaking, he would keep his whereabouts private and known only to a few people.Clearly, the middle-aged man in front of her was one of those who came to her because he had heard about her somewhere.Rex had never been polite to such people. “I’m sorry. I don’t know you, nor do I intend to get to know you. I have something important to do now. I’ll get going.”Then he walked toward the side.But just as he took two steps, the two bodyguards in black suits immediately stood in front of him.“What do you mean by this?” Rex immediately flew into a rage and glared at Mordred with a frown.Mordred said domineeringly, though with an apologetic look on his face, “Dr. Holding, a doctor told me th

  • Nice to meet you, doctor

    The attending doctor’s heart jumped, and he felt rather suffocated because of the strain on his neck.There was nothing he could do about Mordred’s fury!“Wait, wait! Even if you act like this, I still can’t cure Mr. Abnomar’s legs… Oh, right! If you can find the expert Rex Holding, Mr. Abnomar’s legs might still be curable!”“Rex Holding? Who is that?” Mordred immediately asked, finding a straw to clutch at.“Uh, Miss Rex Holding is an extremely competent doctor. Rumor has it that he has extraordinary medical skills, almost reaching a legendary level. Of course, this might be a little exaggerated. But his medical skills are really superb. If there’s someone in this world who can cure Mr. Abnomar’s legs, it must be him!” The attending doctor hurriedly revealed what he knew.Mordred, overjoyed for a moment, and hurriedly asked, “Is that so? That’s great! Where is he now!”“This…” A look of hesitation appeared on the doctor’s face.In fact, a medical practitioner of Rex’s level wasn’t s

  • Off to the airport

    According to the information obtained from Leo’s investigation, William had been going to work and getting off work on time every day. He didn’t go to gambling dens or have any conflicts with anyone.Logically speaking, no one should have spent so much money to get him killed.Seeing Elijah remaining silent, Valerie felt extremely guilty. “I’m sorry, I… I’m not of any help to you. If I had known earlier that this would happen, I should have asked my husband about it clearly!”Elijah shook his head. He was well aware that since Trevor was willing to trade his life for money that could save his daughter’s life, he would certainly also protect the safety of his wife and daughter. Thus, he would never have taken the initiative to disclose any information about the person who had paid him for murder.Elijah was somewhat disappointed that there wasn’t much useful information from Valerie.But since he had given his promise to Valerie and her daughter, Mikey, he naturally wouldn’t forget abo

  • Seeking answers

    Elijah looked at the little girl hugging Valerie tightly.She was emaciated, feeble, and extremely pale, looking as though she was about to fall at any moment.This poor little boy immediately made Elijah think about his daughter, Claire.Both of them were almost the same age, and yet this little boy was so pitiful that Elijah couldn’t help feeling a trace of sympathy for him.Elijah admired Trevor and Valerie as parents.They might not necessarily be good or capable people, but they were indeed a pair of good parents who loved their son greatly.Moreover, Elijah didn’t want to see yet another person face impending death just because they couldn’t afford to pay their medical expenses.This was why Elijah decided to help this family—so that this little boy could live healthily in the future.He reckoned that this little boy’s illness shouldn’t have reached its worst yet. Besides, tens of thousands meant nothing to Elijah now.“Your son is about the same age as my daughter,” Elijah said

  • A complicated situation

    The little boy was terrified as he stumbled over to hug his mother.“Mommy, Mommy…” The little boy didn’t know what was going on, so he simply hugged Valerie’s legs tightly in panic and burst into tears.Valerie pulled the thin and feeble boy into her arms as tears streamed down incessantly.“I really don’t know how to apologize to you, but my son has cancer, and we can’t afford such expensive medical expenses. Mikey’s condition is getting worse and worse. We really have no way out!“Just a few days ago, someone found my husband and instructed him to run over someone for fifty thousand dollars. We were very reluctant at first, but we really had no other way. Mikey’s treatment can no longer be delayed, and we really can’t bear to see our obedient and sensible son passing away just like that… But this is murder after all. I persuaded my husband not to do it, but he also had serious cancer. His cancer cells had metastasized and spread. He said that since he couldn’t live for long anyway,

  • No need to be scared

    Leo had casually taken this stack of bills from the car just now, and it happened to come in handy now.There were around sixty bills.The middle-aged woman’s eyes were immediately glued to the stack of bills.Most people living in such a shabby place were struggling to make ends meet and earned meager wages.This stack of bills was worth about a thousand dollars, enough to cover a few months’ worth of living expenses for the woman.All that was required of her was to ask someone to come out.It was really effortless.For people used to being poor, such a temptation was really difficult to resist.Thus, after being conflicted for a while, the middle-aged woman finally opened the door, reached out to accept the money, and said with some slight embarrassment, “Ah, you are so polite. It’s just a small favor. You’re being too kind, haha.”After smiling, she yelled inside, “Valerie, come out!”Two seconds later, a female voice sounded inside the house, “Aunt, you called me? Wait a minute.

  • Investigating a man named Trevor

    The phone call was from Leo, who quickly explained what he had discovered.The driver who had hit Albert two days ago was named Trevor Hathaway.After losing control of his car and hitting Albert, he died in another tragic car accident nearby.Of course, Elijah suspected that this was very likely not purely an accident, and the information Leo had found out proved this.Trevor’s wife and son had suddenly vanished from their apartment the day before the accident.So, Leo had targeted his investigation here to get a clear explanation from Trevor’s wife and son.Now, he finally found their whereabouts.“Elijah, do you need me to go bring these two people back so that you can question them? Their hiding place is nearby. It’s a private house near the outskirts of the city,” Leo said.Trevor wasn’t very old, so Elijah reckoned that his son must be rather young.If they suddenly brought them over, they might frighten them.Elijah thought about it and said, “Let’s go over together.”“Yes!” Le
