“This is a bottle of Kobo wine worth a million dollars and it's from the Lincolns. They are wishing Mr. Roland a happy birthday and many happy returns.”

“The Sloans present a painting, the Monarch of Nightfall by Alexander Regulus, worth ten million and they wish the entire family even more wealth.”

“The Khans have gifted Mr. Roland a limited edition watch from Rolex worth five million dollars.”

At the main entrance, a lady held a microphone in her hand, enthusiastically announcing the gifts that the guests had brought for everyone in attendance to hear.

In the foyer, Mr. Roland, old as he was, was dressed in a blue suit causing him to look fit and alert.

He had a big smile on his face as he heard the value of the gifts he was getting.

It went to show that those in attendance were not minor characters at all.

Surprisingly, even the Wesen family had been invited with the family head, Mr. Wesen pulling out all the stops and spending a small fortune to get a gift for Mr. Roland just to g

    Before Mr. Roland could respond to Elijah’s words, the latter moved, quickly appearing behind the Roland family head.“Good riddance,” Elijah muttered, and the next moment, blood spurted out, and Mr. Roland's head fell to the ground with a dull thud.Everyone screamed at the sight, unable to believe that Mr. Roland had been killed just like that.But perhaps the most shocked were members of the Roland family as they watched as the man who had led their family for so long died just like that.Taking out a black bag, Elijah picked up the head and left shortly after, leaving behind a silent villa and traumatized guests.[Mission completed][1000 Spirit Points rewarded][Note: Vengeance is served]In the meantime, Mr. Roland's headless corpse remained motionless in the foyer. ***The Leroy residence was in an uproar as Charles finally got a chance to inform the head of the Leroy family and Aiden's father about the incident between Aiden and Elijah.In response, the head of the Leroy fami

    At his mother's grave, Elijah leaned the black bag against the tombstone, took a flask out, and then drank a mouthful from it, then poured the rest of it in front of the grave.“Mom, you don't have to worry. Your son is doing well for himself. Can you imagine?... That weak boy who couldn't protect himself is now being called the King of the North.” As he spoke, he let out a melancholic laugh. “Also, you have a granddaughter. I'm sure you'd have liked her if you were still here. But it's fine. Don't worry, I'll make sure to bring her up in a way you'd have liked. I'm sorry I wasted so much time before I returned… I hope you can forgive me. Rest well, I promise, those that kicked us out all those years ago will pay for their sins.”After that, he got up and left.Meanwhile, in the Roland family villa, everyone had left not too long after Elijah's departure. Naturally, they were too scared to remain, worried that since even Mr. Roland wasn't safe in the Roland family villa, who were th

    Elijah smiled as he replied. “See what I said, as long as we don't look at things negatively, there's always going to be a way around obstacles.”“I know, I know, I should never have underestimated us.”“Exactly. Now then, please tell me you are prepared, meetings and I don't match at all.”Alice chuckled in amusement. “Don't worry, I've got you covered.” As it was, Alice felt lucky that Elijah was hers and she wished to prove her capability to him.She wanted to show him that even though she's been a laughing stock for years, she kept up with her studies and was an accomplished scholar.“Alright, let's go.”Alice quickly got into the car with Elijah ordering Thomas to start the car with the destination being the Gold Lake branch office.“Honey, did you know that Mr. Roland was killed last night?” Considering her grandfather had attended the birthday party, it was no surprise that Alice was aware of the incident that turned from a celebration to mourning.“Are you serious?” Elijah f

    “Thank you,” Alice muttered as she took out her phone and called up her classmate.Elijah offered no response, merely flashing a smile in her direction.Not too long after, a woman approached them only to be shocked when she laid eyes on Alice.If anyone had told her that it was Alice, she wouldn't have believed, but seeing was indeed believing.Naturally, she grew envious due to how Alice looked but managed to control herself as she approached.Excitedly, Alice didn't hesitate to embrace the other lady once she was close enough. “Oh my gosh, hi, Lisa, congratulations on becoming a departmental head at Gold Lake.”Lisa Thompson feigned a smile as she replied. “Well, I try my best.

    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

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?...

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

    Letting out a sigh, Elijah decided not to push the matter. The Ghoul King glared at Elijah as he bellowed. "You haven't seen the last of me!"Elijah didn't even offer a response as he gave him a perfunctory glance before turning to leave, causing the Ghoul King to feel even more humiliated at being treated as less than an insect."Ah!"

    Elijah smirked as he stared down the Ghoul King, the latter feeling quite tense though he didn't show it.'Who does he think he is?... I am the Ghoul King!... No man can dare to disrespect me and expect to survive. No, if I don't show this fool his place, he would think he was the Emperor.'"I will give you one last chance, Mr. Silva. Accept my offer or I will make you regret being born.""Just shut up and fight me already." Elijah casually said, causing the Ghoul King to go red in anger and humiliation."Good, very good. Best keep up that attitude once I'm done with you.""Don't worry, I don't plan on losing it."The Ghoul King gritted his teeth but said nothing more as he prepared to unleash his Martial Technique.'Don't worry; once I'm done with you, you'll regret ever doing all this.'With that thought, the Ghoul King attacked, forming a fist and throwing a punch once he'd reached Elijah.However, that was all… then he found himself on the ground, face first with his body aching t

    Utilizing his Spirit energy to cloak the car, ensuring that it was as strong as an armored tank, Elijah bulldozed his way through the Minister's villa gates and made his way into the empty street outside.Meanwhile, his heroics weren't left unseen by the soldiers protecting the villa as they stared in utter disbelief at what they could only describe as a miracle.None could explain how Elijah had managed to defeat the terrorists blockading the gate and that caused them to feel even more awe for him. “Who was that?”“I have no idea.”“Maybe that's the White Tiger King?”Thomas snorted. “Think again, that's the King of the North!”At the same time, the reporters in the helicopter caught the incident on camera.[Oh my gosh, Breaking news; is Crystal Falls seeing the rise of a hero?...

    Lucas glanced at the White Tiger King, expecting him to come to his aid but imagine his surprise when that didn't happen as instead, the White Tiger King let out a resigned sigh before settling back into his chair.He was going to do as Elijah instructed and rest, which meant he was on his own.Just what was the meaning of this?Gritting his teeth, Lucas glared at Elijah before suddenly, a smile blossomed on his lips.The next instant, he began to laugh, his demeanor changing as his aura shifted from serene to terrifying.The White Tiger King reacted almost instantaneously as he recognized the aura to be similar to the Ghoul King.“It broke my heart to crush his ego, but I had no choice; he turned out to be a bit too useless.” Lucas suddenly said his tone of speaking was completely different from before.“What's the meaning of this?” The White Tiger King questioned with Elijah speaking up.“You never won against the Ghoul King, White; all you did was destroy his body, but considering

    “That's quite the interesting evaluation.” Elijah calmly said as he moved to sit with the White Tiger King.The White Tiger King chuckled and was just about to speak when he began to cough incessantly, causing his expression to turn pale as he heaved and huffed.Lucas immediately got to his feet and methodically, pulled out a vial filled with blue liquid from his pocket before administering it to the General.A few minutes passed before the White Tiger King regained himself, his breathing steadying as his complexion got slightly healthier.Of course, this didn't mean he was completely healed as his previous energetic demeanor was gone, replaced with apparent fatigue.“How do you feel?” Elijah asked.The White Tiger King replied in a hoarse tone. “Terrible.”It was clear that he regretted having to retire after everything he had experienced in his life.“As it is, I can only hope that I get a few more years of life before this injury claims my life.”“Don't worry, you'll be fine,” Elij

    “Thank you, sir.” The lieutenant replied, finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.Just then, Darius finally found the courage to speak up. “How can this be?... This man is an uninvited guest, how can you treat him as an important personnel?”Instead of a response, the lieutenant approached him before proceeding to dish out a hard and tight slap to his face, sending Darius crashing to the ground. As if that wasn't enough, the lieutenant ordered his subordinates to throw Darius out.“Yes sir!”Two soldiers approached and lifted Darius off the ground.Darius didn't even get a chance to say anything as he was dragged away like a dog, humiliating him in the presence of everyone.By now, the available journalists began to speculate Elijah's identity, after all, he needed to be a great figure to be treated in such a manner by the subordinate of the White Tiger King.Meanwhile, Elijah was escorted by the lieutenant personally to meet with the White Tiger King, leaving behind the other gues

    Just as the lieutenant finished talking, Darius raised his hand and pointed at Elijah. “Hello sir, my name is Darius Smith, a member of the illustrious Smith family, and I suspect that this man, who goes by the name Elijah Silva, is, in fact, an uninvited guest at this occasion, one that seemed to have snuck in through some illegal means. I ask that he be chased out to not ruin the sanctity of the occasion.”The lieutenant frowned at this juncture as he was one of those who had helped with the preparations for the event. The succession ceremony of the White Tiger King was a major incident, one that all key military personnel from around the country were required to attend. It wasn't the sort of place where just anybody could be let in and was surely not a place that an uninvited guest would waltz into.He didn't want anything that would ruin the event so, he glanced at Elijah, quickly scrutinizing the fellow.Unfortunately, he didn't recognize Elijah as a great figure, after all, th

    Once the Smith family convoy arrived at the Minister villa, which was a large estate, the sound of drums accompanied by several firecrackers could be heard, serving as a preliminary celebration of the White Tiger King.Several journalists were present, taking pictures while interviewing those in attendance. Currently, a few prominent figures were gathered and were chatting among themselves.Once Darius got out of his car, he didn't hesitate to go over as he knew this was his opportunity to make connections with the right people.As even more people poured in, Darius greeted each one and made sure to speak just as his father had instructed.He needed to make sure that at the end of the event, the Smith family would have entrenched itself among those present.Just as he paused briefly to catch his breath, he noticed a black limo making its entrance as well.He furrowed his brows as he wondered who it was, only for the doors to open and for two familiar faces to reveal themselves, causi
