In the chairman's office on the top floor of the Gold Lake building, Gilbert had been waiting for Alice since morning.

It was unfortunate that she still hadn't shown up yet.

Worried that something was wrong, he left his office and headed down to reception to ask if Alice had arrived to see him but unfortunately, the receptionist claimed that no one with that name had arrived.

This caused Gilbert to grow even more worried as he didn't dare to think that Alice was someone that was late so that meant that he might have missed her or something bad could have happened, both of which did not bode well for him.

The last thing he wished to do was to fail the King of the North.

If that happened, no one would be able to save him.

Due to being anxious, he decided to take a walk while letting the receptionist know to inform him should Alice arrive.

Imagine his surprise when he stepped out of the building only to pause as he laid eyes on Elijah, the same person he dreaded failing.

The latter was

    “So, Mister Strong, this is my proposal and every other document that's needed. Alice quickly began once she got into the office, only for Gilbert to respond.“That won't be necessary.”“What?”“I had my secretary draw up a proposal as well.”As he spoke, Gilbert immediately handed over the documents to Alice allowing her to read through.It didn't take long before Alice let out a gasp of surprise due to the amount written in the document.Instead of the ten million she hoped to get, Gilbert was offering her a hundred instead.Wasn't this a bit too much?“Is something wrong, Miss Wesen?... If a hundred million is too small, I'm sure we can make further arrangements.”“No, that's not necessary. It's more than enough.” Alice hurriedly said, still struggling to wrap her head around the grand sum.“That's good to hear. So I believe it's time to sign?”“Yes.” Alice nodded, taking out her pen to sign on the documents only to discover that Gilbert had already signed as well.It was almost as

    In another part of Crystal Falls, something intriguing was about to take place.Inside the military base stationed within the city, a council of people were gathered, busily planning something.Just then, their leader exploded with anger as he remarked. “To think that there would be a family in Crystal Falls that would be so audacious?... Do they think the world revolves around them?... Daring to investigate the King of the North!?... They are seeking death!”“Commander, what do we do about this?”“Is that even a question?... Issue an immediate order to every military outpost in and around Crystal Falls. If anyone dared to leak any information about the King of the North, they would face the highest punishment imaginable, no matter their rank!”“Understood, Commander!” Within moments, the commander's subordinates hurried to do as instructed.Meanwhile, in yet another outpost, Charles was currently meeting with one of his contacts in the military.The person was a captain of a small b

    Victor gulped as he struggled to remain calm in Alice's presence.To think that such a beauty was the same person that one could only describe as a monster.What kind of miracle transformation was this?Of course, Victor didn't care as the only thing on his mind now was making Alice accompany him to bed.Meanwhile, Olivia was trying to introduce Alice to Victor, but unfortunately, Alice wasn't interested in the slightest, and it showed both in her response and her expression.“Oh, okay.”“Alice, be nice.” Olivia scolded. “What's the matter with you?”“It's fine, Miss Olivia.” Victor intoned. “There's no reason to scold her.”As he spoke, he hoped to gain Alice's attention but unfortunately, she wasn't even looking in his direction.Only then did he notice that she was instead looking at Elijah who was standing beside her.Victor's expression darkened as he felt envious of Elijah.Olivia had already told Victor about Alice's marriage to Elijah, so he was aware that such a low-class man

    Gilbert was furious as he sat in his office, having heard what Alice had to say.“I never knew that Gold Lake was no longer mine to control as I see fit. To think that someone would dare claim they can overturn my decision!”Alice remarked. “That's indeed what Victor Roland claims.”Snorting derisively, Gilbert intoned. “Give me a moment, I'll get back to you soon.”“Sure.”With that, the call ended and Gilbert got to work investigating Victor's ludicrous claims.He quickly learned that truly, behind his back, his vice manager had taken a bribe from the Roland family for the orders they'd received which was why Victor dared to speak so proudly.Of course, this left Gilbert furious as he immediately fired his vice manager and called up the department in charge of the current orders to cancel the agreement with the Roland family.And just to ensure that there wouldn't be a repeat of such in Gold Lake, he placed a van on the Roland family, ensuring that they wouldn't have anything to do

    Alice's decision was a no-brainer, as she replied. “I accept Grandpa. Thank you.”Mr. Wesen chuckled as Alice embraced him before hurrying over to Elijah's side.“Did you hear that?... We won!” Alice said excitedly with Elijah nodding.“Indeed, we did.”As Alice and Elijah celebrated, others could only look on with complicated looks on their faces.Naturally, they weren't happy that Elijah would be staying, but they had no choice but to accept him unless they wished to go against Mr. Wesen, which would surely not end well for them.***Meanwhile, at the Roland family villa, the air was dense with tension as members of the family gathered in the main meeting hall to discuss the current situation.As it was, the only thing keeping them out of bankruptcy was the little savings that had been kept aside for rainy days.One wrong move and they would be completely ruined.To think that they had lost both their wealth and their patriarch in the space of a few days.“It's not my fault.

  • The Almighty God of War Returns   A great battle

    As Elijah and his men marched towards the Leroy family manor, Steven sat waiting in the grand hall alongside several elders of the family.Exuding a cold aura, Steven had made enough preparations to ensure that if Elijah dared to show his face, he would never return.“Would that fool dare to come here to find trouble with us?” one of the Leroy family elders remarked with another calmly replying.“I doubt he would be that dense.” “The fact that he dared to capture Aiden, the heir to this family already shows that he is dense enough to do anything. But if he dares to show his face, I will be the one to take his worthless life, that is a promise!”“Indeed. We will use him as an example to make sure that no one else would dare to go against us.” Just then, Steven made a declaration. “Today, we'll use the fool that dared to take my son captive to show everyone in Crystal Falls that the Leroy family should not be underestimated.”Just as everyone was about to cheer, they all paused as the

  • The Almighty God of War Returns   A one-sided slaughter

    “Who are you?” Steven asked in a hoarse tone, his body trembling as he stared at Elijah who was standing over him.Covered in the blood of his enemies, Elijah appeared like a bloodthirsty god of war, his eyes radiating a chill like none other.If not for his appearance, one might mistake him as not a human, but a monster. Staring at such a person, Steven felt such primal fear that it left him dazed.Looking around to find that he was the last one left, he knew that the Leroy family was finished.Not only had he failed to destroy Elijah, but he had ended up leading his family to destruction instead.It wasn't even a battle and was, instead, a one-sided slaughter.Why had he been so adamant about saving a foolish son like Aiden?... He could have gathered many more.That was when he understood that this battle was not because he wanted to save Aiden, but because of his ego that Elijah had bruised so thoroughly.He wished to teach Elijah a lesson only to be the one on the receiving end.

  • The Almighty God of War Returns   Silva family outing

    Elijah wasn't too bothered that Steven had sent the women and children away as he wouldn't have harmed them if they were present.That was the reason he had given Steven seven days to prepare, so he would send away the liabilities to avoid any complications.Of course, there was the possibility that those survivors would come back for revenge with the family Steven had appealed to backing them but that would be the same as those people signing their death warrants.Elijah could allow them to escape, but returning would leave him no choice but to execute them.In any case, he remarked. “Thank you for letting me know but there's no reason to worry.”“I see.” Dick nodded in understanding.He'd only told Elijah about the survivors because he thought Elijah would want to go after them since they posed a certain amount of risk, but that alone was a foolish thought.As the King of the North and the War God of Avalon, who would be foolish enough to go after him?... And even if they did come,

  • On his toes

    Although Julio was baffled as to why the Abnomars forbade them from dealing with Elijah even after Sir Walter’s death and even seemed to have the intention of letting him off, he had no choice but to obey Marc’s orders and quickly agreed, “Yes, Mister Abnomar!”After leaving the Hernandezs’ manor, Marc raised his head to look into the distant sky with a vicious gaze in his eyes. “Hmph, Elijah Silva, I’ll let you live for a few more days. Soon, you will die without a grave!”Soon, the news of Diego’s death spread throughout Crystal Falls.The Hernandezs merely told everyone that Diego had died because of a sudden cardiac arrest resulting from the shock of the tragic death of his grandson Liam.But only ordinary people would be fooled by this explanation.The people of the top families all found his death to be very bizarre.After all, even though Diego was almost 70 years old, he had always been in good health and had never suffered from any heart disease.So they found it unlikely tha

  • Do you hear me?

    Lincoln glanced at Diego and warned with a sinister expression, “I said, I want to hear the truth! Don’t make me repeat myself!”Diego suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and large sweat droplets trickled down his wrinkled face.Various thoughts flashed through Diego’s mind as he quickly tried to think of what to say.But Lincoln’s patience was wearing thin. He pulled out a pistol and started fiddling with it.Seeing that the situation was turning awry, Diego could no longer worry about anything else. He hurriedly said, “Mr. Abnomar, actually, last night…”The loud and sudden gunshot startled everyone.Before Diego could finish his sentence, his expression stiffened and would remain that way forever.A bloody hole had appeared in his forehead, and blood was still gushing out of it.Immediately afterward, his old and frail body weakened completely, and he collapsed onto the ground with a loud thud.This scene made everyone in the guest hall fall silent, and only the sounds of their hea

  • It's settled

    At this moment, Ricardo inched close to Diego and said eagerly, “Dad, you can’t let him off! Otherwise, the Abnomars will definitely hold us responsible. When the time comes, none of us will be able to escape!... I don’t believe that there’s really someone in this world who isn’t afraid of getting shot by guns! He must be lying and boasting just to scare us. Any one of us here can fire several bullets through his body! Even if we can’t kill on the spot, he will definitely sustain injuries. Even if he can fly, he won’t be able to escape our premises!... I don’t believe that he can really hurt you! There are so many bodyguards in front of you to protect you. No matter what, he can’t do anything to you!”Diego quickly thought about his words and nodded lightly.But at this moment, Alec suddenly stomped his foot against the ground and began moving!“Shoot!” Diego immediately yelled, his heart skipping a beat.But humans are not machines after all.From the moment they received Diego’s com

  • Stuck in a dilemma

    Alec turned the dagger in his hand and shook off the last bit of blood remaining on it.Then he turned around to look at the Hernandez family, who were dumbstruck and rooted to the ground at the entrance of the villa.“Those who dare to provoke him will suffer a miserable fate!” After saying this coldly, he walked toward the entrance.But when he was a few meters away from the entrance, Diego snapped back to his senses as though he had just woken up from a dream and yelled, “Men, get ready!”With his order, the dozen or so gunmen who had just hurriedly assembled immediately raised their pistols and aimed them at Alec’s head.Alec stopped in his tracks and turned around to glare at Diego hostilely. “This isn’t the first time in my life that I’ve been held at gunpoint by so many men, yet I’m still alive and kicking today. Do you have any idea why?”Diego’s face twitched violently.Alec said, “Because those who’ve had the guts to threaten me with a gun were all killed by me!”As Alec sai

  • Dead silent

    The Hernandez family members stood outside the villa, not daring to get too close, though they heard the conversation between Sir Walter and Alec.“It seems this person should be Sir Walter’s enemy. He barged into our manor today because he wanted to deal with Sir Walter! Thank God…” Ricardo hurriedly patted his chest and heaved a sigh of relief.Although he didn’t finish the rest of his sentence, all the Hernandez family members understood what he meant.Naturally, Ricardo was thankful to find out that this man wasn’t after the Hernandez family.But Diego wasn’t that optimistic.Sir Walter was a top expert who worked for the Abnomars and whom the Hernandez family had requested to help them, making him an honored guest of the Hernandez family.Regardless of whether the man in front of them was Sir Walter’s enemy and here to take revenge, the Hernandez family couldn’t stay out of it completely.Otherwise, if something unfortunate happened to Sir Walter in the Hernandez family manor, th

  • You don't need to know

    “What?!” Diego’s expression drastically changed while the other Hernandez' were astounded too.Sir Walter was an elite expert the Abnomars had sent, and ordinary people couldn’t get close to him.Besides, he was now a distinguished guest of the Hernandez' and was in a foul mood because of his apprentice’s death.Which audacious person was so brazen that he charged into Sir Walter’s villa?“Bastard, this is outrageous! How dare he barge into Sir Walter’s villa? He must be tired of living!” Diego hollered in exasperation.But since the matter occurred in the Hernandez'’ manor, they would have to take a look at the situation as the hosts and placate Sir Walter at the same time.To show their respect for Sir Walter, the expert working for the Abnomars, the Hernandez' had specifically arranged for Sir Walter to stay in the villa beside Diego’s, which was in the middle of the manor.As soon as Diego led the Hernandez out of the villa, they saw an enormous hole because the thick alloy door h

  • An unusual clamor

    “Dad, do you think there’s something wrong with Sir Walter? His apprentice was killed by Elijah Silva, yet all he’s doing is throwing a tantrum in our place. Why doesn’t he go take revenge on Elijah Silva himself? I doubt those killers he sent will be able to do anything!” Diego’s younger son, Julio Hernandez, asked impatiently.He was the one who had suggested that they join forces with the Abnomars and ask them to send an expert to deal with Elijah.But he didn’t know how powerful Sir Walter was, though he knew that Sir Walter loved putting on airs all the time.Besides, he was clearly the one who had put forward the suggestion, yet Diego sent his brother, Ricardo, to host Sir Walter instead.So Julio had been extremely displeased, feeling that his brother had taken all the credit from him again.Diego’s face darkened, and he said sternly, “Shut up! You should never say such things again! If Sir Walter hears you, even I won’t be able to protect you! Also, if you offend him and end u

  • Kill order

    The killer hurriedly said, “The Hernandez family requested Sir Walter to send his apprentice to assassinate Mr. Silva, but he ended up getting killed by Mr. Silva instead. That’s why Sir Walter was furious and sent us to kidnap Mr. Silva and then take him to the Hernandez' to be at their disposal!”When Alec heard this, the murderous intent in his eyes intensified, and his gaze became extremely terrifying.“In that case, is Sir Walter in the Hernandez'’ manor now?”“Y-yes!”“We’re just following orders. We don’t have any personal feud with Mr. Silva. Please…”In the dim corner, several shrieks filled the air one after another, but before long, silence returned.Soon, Alec and Leo composedly walked out of the corner and left as if nothing had happened.At this time, Elijah just arrived back in the lake villa and heard a text message alert.He opened his phone and saw the text Alec sent.“Those killers were sent by Sir Walter, who works for the Abnomars, to avenge his dead apprentice.

  • The sound of the wind

    Elijah immediately thought of the Hernandez' and the Abnomars.After all, he had killed Jamie Hernandez, and just three hours ago, he had killed the killer sent by the Abnormars.They definitely wouldn’t give up just like that.Elijah was certain that they would continue to send more people to avenge them.He didn’t move and continued to stroll casually with Alice and Claire as if he wasn’t aware of their presence.But two familiar figures suddenly appeared beside Elijah.After secretly nodding at him, they walked away like ordinary passersby.They were none other than Alec and Leo, members of the Thirteen Warriors, commanders who were the most loyal to Elijah.At this time, it was almost two hours to midnight.There were few pedestrians on the streets downtown now, and the streets were gradually becoming empty.A killer tailing them tried to restrain his aura and hid behind a large garbage can outside a store.While watching Elijah and the others, he tried to change his position agai
