The Almighty God of War Returns An unexpected visitor
With Present defeated, it didn't take long for the situation to de-escalate as his subordinates were captured and subsequently arrested by Elijah’s forces.The hostages were rescued and immediately sent off for rehabilitation, with the middle school placed on lockdown for the time being.It was a rather traumatic experience so it was understandable that they didn't think about opening up the school just yet.As for the citizens, to help them recover from the attack, the minister announced a public holiday that was to span for two days, allowing everyone to relax and get over the events of the day.For those who died, the White Tiger King announced that they would be buried with honors and their families would be compensated for their losses.And so, for the time being, it seemed as though the effects of the terrorist attack were sure to pass away.“Quite unfortunate.” Past muttered as he watched everything play out on the news.Future chuckled as he replied. “Present was too cocky. No
The Almighty God of War Returns Forgive me, young master
“Will you not invite me in?” Albert asked with Elijah narrowing his gaze briefly before finally stepping aside.“Say something dumb, and I will kick you out personally,” Elijah warned, with Albert replying with a smile.“No problem at all.”With that, Albert walked into the villa with Elijah leading him to the garden so he wouldn't come across Alice or Claire.Unfortunately, the duo had just stepped into the garden when they arrived.“Daddy!” Claire exclaimed as she rushed over and hugged him with Elijah picking her up.Albert was rather surprised by this as he stared at Claire and then at Alice.“Honey, who is this?” Alice asked.Elijah glanced at Albert as he replied. “Just an acquaintance. No need for you to worry.”“Hmm, alright then.”“Can you take Claire inside?... We have something we need to talk about.”“Alright then,” Alice said before inquiring. “Do you want me to get something?... Like water or snacks?”“That…”“Won't be necessary, dear. You don't have to worry.” Elijah re
The Almighty God of War Returns A day at the park
Elijah hesitated before replying. “Alice and Claire.”“They seem wonderful. Take good care of them.”“I don't need you to tell me that.”Albert chuckled as he continued on his way.Elijah let out a sigh as he looked down at the key before proceeding to pocket it.It seemed that everything he thought was the truth was flawed.If he wanted to understand the truth of it all, Elijah would need to head to the capital.As for the bastard that caused the attack at the middle school, Elijah had only one thing to say to them.“Run… for when I find you, you will pray for death, but death will not come.”***Alice tried to ask about Albert when Elijah returned inside but the latter dodged her questions as he didn't think it was the right time to speak to her about it.It was better she didn't know anything than she did.Realizing that Elijah wasn't willing to open up, Alice decided not to force things, hopeful that Elijah would speak with her once he was ready.In any case, after a few more days
The Almighty God of War Returns Stalker
The young paparazzi, whose name was Dan, had spent the entire afternoon secretly taking photos of Elijah, who had been kind and gentlemanly towards Madison in a bid to use them for nefarious purposes.He'd thought he could get away with it but now faced with Elijah, he was overwhelmed with an immense fear as it felt like he was being sized up by a terrifying beast.Dan realized belatedly that he had very likely offended a big shot which was something he shouldn't have done. Gulping nervously, he remarked. “It's all a misunderstanding.”“Really?” Elijah replied as he took a step forward while Dan quickly shuffled back in fear.“Yeah, honest.”“Who set you up to this?” Elijah asked while gesturing at the camera. “No one, honest to God. I'm just a photographer, and I thought you and your wife looked cute together, so I decided to take a few photos. If you don't like them, then that's fine. Just return the camera to me, and I'll delete them.” Elijah sneered as he pulled out the camera'
The Almighty God of War Returns False alarm
In a luxurious villa owned by the Augustus family in the capital, a young man in his twenties was reclining on a soft leather sofa with a sullen expression.Kneeling across from him was an older man wearing a suit.Judging from the tension in the air, one could easily tell that something was wrong.The older man didn't dare to speak out of turn at this moment as he waited patiently for the young man to speak up.Finally, he did.“So you failed?” “Apologies, young master, I failed to get the task down well. I'm incompetent.”“That you are.” The young man nodded, satisfied that at least the older fool knew he was at fault.The older man didn't stop there, though, as he continued. “In truth, I had found a perfect candidate who managed to put Elijah in a chokehold but to our surprise, he managed to overturn the entire situation, saving the hostages and defeating our candidate. Thankfully, that person is dead but the task remains unfulfilled.”“What's the point of all that when the main t
The Almighty God of War Returns The Ghoul King's phylactery
“What do you mean by the Ghoul King is dead?” Elijah asked.“It's exactly as I said, General,” Leo said. “He bit off his tongue and died in the interrogation room.”“Damn it, did we get any information from him?”“Unfortunately no. He remained silent until his death. A tough nut to crack.”Elijah clicked his tongue as he was not happy to hear that the Ghoul King had escaped custody.He'd hoped that the Ghoul King could be used to pinpoint the other Disasters but now, the lead had gone cold.But he didn't wish to believe that the Ghoul King would die so easily.He was a Disaster, one of the most powerful villains in the world.Those bastards weren't so easily defeated.Elijah guessed that he most likely had a means to come back to life, after all, he was a cultivator that dealt with souls.“Has an autopsy been carried out?” Elijah asked with Leo responding.“Yes. So far only one thing has been discovered.”“What?”“The corpse lacks a spiritual imprint.”Elijah paused, quickly pondering
The Almighty God of War Returns Atlas
Surprisingly, Clinton didn't seem to mind as he replied, rather excitedly. "Of course. Atlas just changed owners and we have to greet them as soon as possible.""Congratulations sir." The guards clearly didn't understand but still chose to buttkiss Clinton, an act the latter enjoyed."Hah, we have to reach out to the owner before the other shareholders so we can build a cordial relationship," Clinton muttered as he gestured for one of his bodyguards to get his cell phone.Just then, he got an email with an image attached causing him to instinctively tap it to see what it was about. The next moment he froze as he stared at the picture on his phone before slowly raising his head to regard Elijah.Then he stared at the phone screen again and then back at Elijah. Taking a deep breath, he began to take steady steps forward, quickly approaching the guards standing next to Elijah.“Sir, what…”Before he could even complete his sentence, Clinton slapped him across the cheek. The guard spun
The Almighty God of War Returns A merciful boss
Elijah gestured with his hand. "Just forget it. There's no need to treat me like I'm such an old guy. This company was my mother's and I plan to live up to her legacy. As for the asshole that caused this to happen, I don't plan to let him get away so easily.”"... I understand." Theresa's gaze flickered with a strange emotion but regardless, she remained poised.Nodding casually, Elijah remarked. "So I guess it's time to get down to business.""Yes. What are your orders, sir?... As the Vice chairman, I am required to serve you to the best of my abilities."Ignoring the connotations of her words, Elijah pondered for a moment before replying. "For now, I have only one directive.""And what's that?""Hide my identity from the media." Elijah pointedly said.Theresa blinked in confusion. "... Hide your identity?"Most rich men would want to take advantage of such situations to show off to the media but Elijah wasn't planning on doing so.It got her intrigued and also curious.Meanwhile, on

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
A serious medical case
“The patient’s injuries are too serious. We’ve already done our best, but it’s still very likely that he will remain bedridden forever, which is known as being in a vegetative state. Of course, if the situation turns for the better, he might still be able to regain consciousness.”The doctor comforted them helplessly and then dragged his exhausted body away.Looking at Albert lying lifelessly on the hospital bed with the ventilator and lots of tubes attached to him, Elijah felt rather sorrowful.Albert was just his family butler, and they didn’t share a very close relationship in the past. But he didn't deserve such a fate.Unfortunately, he was now in a vegetative state after the sudden car accident, and it was almost impossible for him to regain consciousness ever again.Making a decision to ensure that Albert would recover, Elijah walked out of the ward and went to a secluded area to make a call.Soon, a man on the other end asked in surprise, “Huh? I didn’t think that you’d take
Involved in a ghastly accident
Layla nodded and said honestly, “Yes, apart from assassination, there are many other terrible things. As long as it’s a task that offers easy money, the organization will basically agree to it. They’re also secretly supporting a lot of powerful families and forces. Oh, right, and they also ask members to go around to solicit beautiful women and send them to powerful families and forces as social escorts used in exchange for benefits. Although I haven’t done such a thing, I’ve witnessed it several times.”As Elijah and Layla were discussing, they would have no idea that something bad was about to happen to a notable figure.At this moment in another part of the city, Albert Sanders, butler of the Augustus family, had just finished meeting with some powerful individuals in Crystal Falls in a bid to ensure that should there be a need to flee the capital, he would be able to ensure Sir Augustus safety.When he was about to leave work, he suddenly received a call from Sir Augustus who call
