Elijah did not enjoy being overly violent once his opponent accepted defeat.

Which was why he praised Timothy for being wise enough to take a step back when needed.

There was no reason to send him to the hospital though Elijah thought him deserving of it.

Regardless, it was fine as long as the fool understood the error of his ways.

Timothy sold his shares without hesitation after which he was dragged out of the building along with his subordinates.

It was humiliating for him but did he dare to fight against it?... Of course not.

The fear of Elijah was the beginning of wisdom and he didn't dare to think that he would come out victorious should he remain stubborn.

Once Timothy was gone, the reception erupted in applause as everyone praised Elijah for standing up for Maria.

None of them liked Timothy but were too scared to reveal their dislike due to him being more powerful than them.

However, seeing that their boss was a man willing to stand up for them, naturally, the

  • The Almighty God of War Returns   Under arrest

    Just as Elijah was about to start brainstorming ways to handle the current situation, the gatekeeper rushed inside with an ashen face. “Sir, Special Forces are at the door. They are here for you.”Before Elijah could say anything, several more people rushed inside, with most wearing standard uniforms and carrying military-issued artillery.Following that, a middle-aged man walked inside with an imposing aura.Elijah was immediately able to tell that the man was a cultivator judging from the energy about him. “You must be Elijah Silva.” The man began. “I am Captain Martinez and I am placing you under arrest. Do not resist as my men and I are allowed to use maximum force.”“No, you can't take him!” Alice cried out as she rushed to stand in front of Elijah, shielding him from Captain Martinez and his subordinates.“Miss, I advise you not to impede our actions as doing so makes you a criminal in our eyes.” Captain Martinez remarked coldly, taking a step further as he did so.Despite his

    With that, she reluctantly let go after which Elijah walked over to stand before Captain Martinez, shoving aside the latter's presence to establish his own.Captain Martinez glared at him but found himself unable to do anything else.He could tell that it would be child's play for Elijah to force him to his knees so as much as he wished to deal with Elijah, he could only swallow his annoyance and stay calm for now.Once an opportunity presented itself, Captain Martinez swore to not let it pass him by.“Let's go.”Captain Martinez gritted his teeth as he remarked. “Cuff him.”Two of his men stepped forward, feeling rather tense.Elijah didn't make things difficult for them, stretching his arms out so they could place handcuffs on his wrists.“Come on, let's be on our way.”Elijah led the way only to be met with a peculiar sight outside.A series of cocking sounds erupted as Leo and his agents surrounded Captain Martinez and his company, prepared to fire should they overstep their bound

  • The Almighty God of War Returns   From one problem to the next

    Captain Martinez was in a bind as he realized that if he called in the others, it was assured that he would have to share the glory as well.If only this Elijah Silva wasn't such a troublesome fellow.Clicking his tongue in annoyance, Captain Martinez quickly made his decision and was about to take out his phone when he heard a report from the vehicle at the forefront of their convoy.“Boss, we've got an issue.”“What is it?”“There's a blockade.”“Who dares to block our transit?... Are they not aware that we are here on official business?... Send a soldier to question them and issue a warning. If they still try to act smart, ram through them and continue on our way. This bastard Elijah has already annoyed me enough, I don't want any more trouble.”“Understood sir.”Meanwhile, Elijah noticed the cars had stopped moving and so wondered if Captain Martinez was about to make his move.He assumed the captain would plan an attack, so he had already begun to plot how he would escape instead

  • The Almighty God of War Returns   We are coming to you

    Martinez trembled as he realized that the White Tiger King wasn't playing around.If he dared to misbehave, he would receive the maximum punishment meted out, especially by him.“Understood.” He remarked through gritted teeth before moving back to his entourage to facilitate the release of Elijah Silva.Elijah stepped out, rather surprised that the captain wasn't planning on trying anything funny.But he was even more surprised when he saw the White Tiger King as he hadn't expected him to arrive so quickly.Elijah approached him. “What are you doing here?”“You just keep jumping from one problem to the next. What is this I'm hearing about you being responsible for an old man taking his own life?”“False accusations.”“Can't someone else be accused?... Why does it have to be you?” The White Tiger King sounded exasperated.“Enemies from my past,” Elijah replied, unwilling to explain further.The White Tiger King let out a tired sigh. “You are honestly going to be the death of me. Come a

  • The Almighty God of War Returns   Ambush

    Elijah’s attackers knew that the White Tiger King would come to his aid, and so couldn't afford to let him get back to him.Clicking his tongue, Elijah realized he wouldn't be able to outrun his pursuers.With that being the case, he decided on an alternative; facing them head-on.With that in mind, he served sharply into a dirt road while making a phone call.***The Ghoul King, leader of the Ghost Sect, happened upon the car Elijah had tried to use to escape their chase, however, it was now conspicuously empty.“Maybe he ran deeper into the forest. The car wouldn't be able to help him much there. It also makes it easier for him to cover his tracks.” A Ghost Sect member remarked with The Ghoul King shaking his head.“Elijah Silva is not that kind of person. He is a fighter and so, we can't assume he plans to run away just like that.”“Then?”“He most likely chose this spot as it's easy to pick us off one by one; it's how he dealt with enemies at the northern border; it's how he plans

    Lasers emerged from the ground, revealing pointers buried expertly in the soil.A few more were cut down by the lasers.Two managed to make it through but they were hardly in luck as Elijah dispatched them with hardly any effort on his part.The one-sided beatdown lasted for almost 10 minutes before the last Ghost Sect member dropped dead, leaving The Ghoul King the sole survivor with his legs torn through and his heart rapidly beating.“You are a resourceful man that can never be caught off guard.” The Ghoul King praised as he backed away from Elijah.“Thanks for the compliment but I'm more interested in learning what you know about me.”“You should know, Elijah Silva, I am not so foolish as to open my mouth so readily.”“You will talk.”“I don't think so.” The Ghoul King suddenly but his tongue causing blood to quickly pool in his mouth.Seeming on the verge of death, he immediately found himself recovered causing him to grow tense.Then he met Elijah's mocking gaze. “You'll die whe

    Larry Higgins was currently seated in a beautiful penthouse in one of the five-star hotels in the city.It was annoying that he had to leave his abode in the capital to come to this pathetic city just to carry out the orders of his superior.To think that it was all because of one man that the Augustus family was willing to do so much just to ensure his downfall.Letting out a sigh, he swirled the wine in the glass he was holding while looking down at the beautiful view the penthouse afforded him.“Boss, Captain Martinez hadn't called yet and that crazy old man you sent as well hasn't returned. Do we send in more men?” Clement asked.“Just wait,” Larry remarked. “These things take time. Elijah Silva isn't as easy to defeat as you think.”“I see.” Clement nodded though he wasn't pleased by Larry's decision.After he was kicked out of the Dawson family, he was forced to seek refuge with Larry but even then, he got turned into a pathetic subordinate that was at Larry's beck and call.Thi

    Of course, Elijah knew that his work wasn't done yet as he got Larry and Clement to confess the truth behind Harrison's death as well as letting him know where they had kept his family members.Elijah had them rescued while he got the White Tiger King to come and pick up Larry and Clement for trial.Though annoyed that Elijah had turned him into a subordinate, the White Tiger King had to admit that Elijah was pretty good when it came to resolving such complicated matters.It didn't take long for the news of Harrison's suicide to be taken down and the real news shared of what had truly happened.By then, those companies that had removed their funding from Atlas couldn't help but regret acting hastily.Now, there was no medicine for regret as Atlas completely banned them, ensuring that they would never work together on future projects.Elijah returned home to reunite with his wife and child, both of whom were more than happy to have him back with them.That night, the trio slept in the

  • A strange woman

    Deone’s desire to survive pushed him to rush out of the parking lot as he was only focused on one thought.He had to tell the other assassins to avoid the bounty on Elijah's head.The King of the North was not someone they could afford to go against!Looking at Deone's retreating back, Elijah didn't bother to chase after him, because he knew that his internal organs had suffered fatal damage.Meanwhile, Zero continued to struggle to no avail.If he had known that Elijah was so powerful, he wouldn't have dared to approach him even if he had the courage of a thousand men.“I'll give you a chance to live.” Elijah coldly stated as he glanced at Zero. “Tell me the names of all those who accepted the bounty, and I'll spare your life.”“You want me to betray my brothers?... In your dreams!” Zero glared at him and used his last remaining strength to channel his spiritual energy into his core.There was a crisp sound and Zero's core exploded, resulting in a terrifying wave of energy that would

  • Binary

    “Bastard, you are ex-military, right?... I would like to see how you escape these two monsters!” Bernard exclaimed with glee.Elijah regarded the two before inquiring. “Do you lot know who I am?”“Of course. It is an honor to meet with the famed King of the North.”The silence that followed was profound as Bernard couldn't believe what he'd heard.King of the North?... There was no way they were referring to Elijah Silva, the useless son-in-law of the Wesen family who was basically a kept husband, right?As Bernard struggled to come to terms with what he'd heard about Elijah's true identity, the twin assassins licked their lips with relish as they took out their sickles once again, brandishing them with ill intent.“Brother, let me have a go at him first.” Zero, the first of the two assassins, suggested with a chuckle, with Deone replying.“Sure, but you'd best not start crying for help.”“Hehe, don't underestimate me!” Zero exclaimed as he arched his body slightly.There was a burst

  • Enemies on two fronts

    “You may call us the last thing you would see before your death, the end of the road… whatever floats your boat.” The second person said with a chuckle.With a casual thought, Elijah made a guess. “You are assassins.”“Ding ding ding looks like we have a winner.”Elijah was rather surprised that there were those in the underworld who were bold enough to go for the bounty Hacksaw had placed on his head.It seemed not everyone cared for their lives… though judging from the two individuals before him, they seemed like the kind that had little regard for life. Just as he was about to address them, there was a thunderous sound of footsteps.Elijah and the two assassins glanced back to find a group of thugs armed with machetes and steel pipes rushing in.“Hah, so you actually got some help.” one of the assassins said before adding. “Unfortunately, this won't be enough to cause us any trouble!”It was clear that the assassins didn't take the thugs seriously.Elijah raised his brows as he co

  • Shocking the guests

    Celeste's act of declaring Elijah to be a better fit for her than Bernard was immediately met with mixed reactions from the guests, with most of those reactions bordering on confusion.“Are you guys seeing what I'm seeing?”“Yes!”“Celeste Ainsworth, heiress of the Ainsworth family likes a kept husband like Elijah Silva?... This doesn't make any sense!”Meanwhile, Bernard stared at Elijah, struggling to figure out why she would prefer Elijah over him before finally coming to a realization.‘She wants someone that she can use and dump whenever she feels like it, so naturally, she would go for a man that has no family backing him.’Taking that into consideration, Bernard remarked. “So that's the problem?... You are threatened by my family name?”“What?”“Isn't that the reason you'd prefer a useless man like Elijah Silva?” Bernard confidently replied causing Celeste to chuckle at his lack of knowledge.“You seem to have made a blunder in your deduction. Why would I feel threatened by you

  • Is there something on my face?

    Due to how Celeste took Alice wherever she went, people began to think that the two had established a close connection.In truth, though they had only spent a day together, Alice had quickly acclimated to the type of person Celeste was and since the two ladies had a lot in common, it didn't take much for them to become friends.Elijah accompanied them a few times but, after a while, grew bored of the constant conversations that usually bordered around the same things.If they weren't trying to form connections, they were trying to catch the attention of the ladies and if not that, they were nitpicking Elijah's presence.Wary of all that, he took a break to head to the toilet and relieve himself.Seeing an opportunity, Bernard didn't hesitate to take it as he immediately made his way over to where Alice and Celeste were.Almost at the same time, the music the DJ was playing shifted from upbeat to a more romantic vibe, and the lights above changed colors from white to a purplish hue.Be

  • Get-together

    Bernard's misinterpretation of the actions of Celeste and Alice was equally shared by the other guests in attendance as they began to gossip among themselves.“Can you imagine that?... Celeste stepped out to greet Bernard herself. It means the rumors of a romance between them are true!”“Forget that, even Alice seems to be interested as well. Ah, how I would kill to gain the interest of even one of these two fairies.”“Heh, stop dreaming. You don't have what it takes. Maybe when you are worth a few hundred million, then you can think of going after them. For now, we can only watch a master at work.”As they continued to discuss, Bernard had a proud smile on his face as he waited for Alice and Celeste to arrive with open arms.The two ladies exchanged looks with one another before looking at Bernard like he was an idiot after which they continued on their way. “Eh… what's going on?... Where are they going… did they stop out of embarrassment?”“Maybe?”As onlookers were confused by the

  • The Hallowed Crown

    Elijah left the City of Sin, completely overwhelmed with everything he'd learned from Zero.Just the fact that Hacksaw, an influential figure loyal to the Prime Minister had placed a bounty on his head meant that the problem in Albion was not just related to a few members of the bourgeoisie.It had also eaten deep into the aristocracy as well, which caused him to wonder just what had happened in the years he was fighting at the northern border.Had he focused so much on the northern border that he didn't realize that there were festering problems within the nation?Letting out a sigh, he took out his cell phone and placed a call to Thomas.“Yes general.”“I need you to look into the current movements of Hacksaw. Let me know if he came to Crystal Falls at any point in time.”“It would be difficult, general. Hacksaw is no ordinary figure and his secrets are just as closely guarded as yours.”“I know. Just find out what you can and relay it to me. As for Chronos' disciples, let them be f

  • High-risk individual

    Considering Elijah was seen as a High-risk Individual, few could be considered his equal in a one-on-one fight.With this understanding, the thugs immediately became respectful. “Right this way.”Elijah was led through the entrance which led to a spacious hall adorned with expensive ornaments.One of the thugs remarked. “I'll inform Zero of your presence. For now, please take a seat.”“Alright.”It didn't take long before Zero arrived, escorted by the thug who went to get him and an additional one who seemed to serve as a bodyguard.He was a buff man with faint wisps of spirit energy floating about his figure.It was easy to tell that he was a cultivator like Elijah.Judging from Zero's physique, it was clear he was most likely a Combatant cultivator, which meant those who focused more on offensive skills when cultivating.He sat across from Elijah and scanned him briefly before speaking up. “My boys told me you are a High-risk Individual. I rather doubt it so I'm here to test it out.

  • Meeting with Zero

    “According to what we recovered, they are most likely aiding Past and Future because they believe they'd be able to get a huge reward at the end,” Thomas reported.Elijah could shake his head, disappointed that civilians could be so easily convinced.The treasure that the disciples of Chronos were searching for was indeed valuable, but retrieving it would cause untold destruction to the entire city.He wondered if they would be able to live with such an outcome.Perhaps, if they could easily be bought with money, they wouldn't care about what happened to the city.Regardless, it was best to ensure that both Past and Future were caught before the situation got out of hand.“Any idea on who the family is?”“Not yet. But they are affiliated with the underworld so talking with Zero would help us uncover their true identity.”“Alright then, organize a meeting. I'll go there myself.”“Understood.”With that, the call ended, and Elijah drove out of the boutique.It didn't take too long befor
