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
The Almighty God of War Returns Cutting ties
Elijah snorted as he continued on his way, quickly leaving the company premises while Lucius glared at his back.“Baby, don't bother yourself with that fool. We were only trying to help him, but since he decided not to accept our goodwill, then that's his business.”Lucius nodded, agreeing with Katie’s words but that didn't stop him from swearing to teach Elijah a lesson.Meanwhile, Elijah quickly got to his car but wasn't about to let the incident with Lucius go just like that.Since the bastard had decided to take things too far, Elijah decided to teach him a lesson in humility.With that in mind, he quickly put a call across to Theresa who had just settled into her office. ***Meanwhile, Theresa was in her office when her secretary walked in.“Miss Theresa, there are some guests here to see you.”“Let them wait, I'm busy right now.”“Understood.”Just then, her phone rang and she picked it up. “Hello.”“Theresa.”“Yes sir.” Theresa instinctively sat up straight up realizing it was
The Almighty God of War Returns Taking over
“Also, you can go ahead and announce that the ownership of the company is in the hands of another but as I said, don't disclose my identity. Also, considering we have kicked out the Vergara family, I believe it's only right we find a replacement so announce that there would be an auction to take up the projects that the Vergara family have left unfinished.” “Understood.”Satisfied with her response, Elijah could only wait to see how things would turn out in the coming days.The next day, Theresa released the announcements according to Elijah's arrangements, and immediately, the entirety of Crystal Falls exploded with discussions as everyone began to talk about it.***Due to Theresa's announcement, a meeting was organized to take place in the conference hall of Atlas.“Okay, that's all for today's report. All departments should continue to work hard, and I'd like to announce that we will be ditching our earlier plans to fire some workers due to a deficit, and instead, we shall be hir
The Almighty God of War Returns Wait!
After noticing the change in everyone's expression, Theresa spoke up. “Elijah Silva’s outstanding resume is the reason I accepted his offer to purchase the controlling shares of our company. He may be unknown but it remains that he is competent enough!”At this juncture, even if they didn't want to accept the change, the executives had no choice in the matter.The record of this Elijah fellow was just too solid to fault.“Now then, with the appearance of a new owner, there are bound to be some changes,” Theresa said. “The first change is that Atlas will no longer be connected to the Augustus family.”“What?”“This is unwise!”“The Augustus family is the reason we are where we are today.”The executives quickly protested, expressing their views but Theresa wasn't even moved as she replied.“This is the decision of the new owner and if you don't like it, take it up with him. However, I must warn you. Due to his exploits in the North, he is a close friend of the King of the North, so it
The Almighty God of War Returns Harrison's dirty scheme
As the atmosphere in the conference hall turned quite tense with everyone swayed by Harrison's perfectly crafted scheme, Theresa spoke up in a bid to defend herself from the horrible accusations levied against her.“These documents are fake. I and Mister Silva are innocent of the crimes you are accusing us of!” Theresa remarked, tearing apart the documents she was holding. She had given up everything while working for Atlas, doing her best to ensure that it didn't fall under her leadership.This was precisely because the former owner, Elijah’s now-deceased mother, was the reason she had managed to finish business school.She had paid for Theresa's fees and promised her a job at the company if she did well in her studies.That was at a time when Theresa was all alone in the world, contemplating suicide.She was saved and she had sworn on that day to pay back what had been done for her a thousandfold.This was why even when it seemed as though Atlas was on its way to falling apart, she

Before Elijah could finish speaking, Oliver suddenly interrupted while turning the steering wheel vigorously.There was a loud bang in front.Elijah was driving on the inner lane of a four-lane divided highway.But a black G-Wagon suddenly sped over from the side and crashed into a red Tesla in front of it!After steering the car the other way, Elijah floored the gas pedal and drove straight into the big G-Wagon!“Elijah, you’re crazy!”In the passenger seat, Oliver watched their car collide with the G-Wagon with his eyes wide open!“Hold on to your seatbelt!” Elijah hollered loudly.Just as Oliver subconsciously grabbed his seatbelt, the G-Wagon was right in front of them!The loud sound of a violent collision filled the air!Oliver began to get dizzy from the strong inertia.Fortunately, the airbags in the car popped open in time, securely shielding them in the middle so that neither of them got hurt.But the tall and sturdy G-Wagon was flung far by Elijah’s BYD.The roof of the G-W
Elijah, watch out!
Olivia modestly accepted the compliments, but deep down, she was incredibly smug and was enjoying the praises.But when she heard these people praising Elijah, she felt extremely displeased.In particular, the fact that Elijah had given her parents such expensive gifts, which he had never given her before even though she was his mother-in-law, made her extremely exasperated!Olivia, like the Johnsons, was a fool who failed to recognize valuable items.“Olivia, Alice’s husband seems pretty good!”“Yeah, he doesn’t seem to be as terrible and incompetent as you made him out to be. He gave us such expensive gifts, and most importantly, he’s willing to spend on your parents. He’s really quite a good son-in-law!”A few of them started praising Elijah, and even Mark had a change of attitude.He said to Olivia, “We’re about to have dinner soon, but Oliver and Elijah left because we made them upset just now. Quickly, give him a call and ask them to come back!”Feeling indignant, Olivia deliber
Authentic gifts
With that, Cornelius left in his car without waiting for Sir Johnson to ask him to stay.Sir Johnson was dumbfounded for a long time, but he still couldn’t recover from the shock as he continued to stand in the same spot.The Johnsons used to be countryside villagers, and they basically had no family background or assets.They had even asked Olivia for money to build these two villas that they were living in.Usually, they would rejoice for a long time whenever Olivia gave them thousands of dollars.But just a few minutes ago, they actually flushed away a bag of tea leaves worth more than a million dollars into the sewer.Sir Johnson suddenly felt like he was in a dream, as he found it hard to come to terms with the reality that someone had offered so much money for some tea leaves.Sir Johnson thought of something and suddenly turned around to walk to the courtyard.He went up to Alice, who was inside a room of the other villa, and asked anxiously, “Alice, are the tea leaves you gave
Wrong judgement
Derrick got into his car furiously and instructed his chauffeur to start driving away immediately.By the time the Johnsons came out to chase after him, Derrick’s car was already long gone.Cornelius stood rooted to the ground as he carefully recalled what Derrick said.Indeed, Derrick is a tea connoisseur.Since he said those tea leaves are authentic, it should more likely than not be the case.Otherwise, he wouldn’t have offered so much money for a lousy bag of tea leaves.If the tea leaves are authentic, the young man who gifted them to Sir Johnson shouldn’t be an ordinary person.But both Sir Johnson and Dahlia called him a good-for-nothing who freeloads off his wife, and they clearly sounded contemptuous just now. They even threw the tea leaves he gave Sir Johnson into the trash.That just goes to show that they detest him a lot.In that case, Derrick is right.The Johnsons are indeed too ignorant and improvident.Sir Johnson walked toward Cornelius and looked at the car in the
Ignorance is not bliss!
Sir Johnson hurriedly said, “Yeah, Mr. Charleston, you’d better put it back, lest it dirties your hand! This bag of tea leaves is a gift from my grandson-in-law, who’s nothing but a freeloader. He even claimed that it was top-grade tea. Hah, he’s just a penniless live-in husband who sponges off his wife. How can he possibly afford to buy such expensive tea leaves? He was just trying to fool me with some lousy goods!... Ah, the sight of this bag of lousy tea leaves really angers me. I don’t even want to talk about him. It’s such a misfortune of our family!”Dahlia hurriedly said, “Grandpa, why are you getting so worked up because of someone like him? Calm down. Don’t let your health be affected!”Then she said to Derrick, “Mr. Charleston, let me help you dispose of the tea leaves.”Dahlia reached out to grab the bag of tea leaves from Derrick.“Hold it!” Derrick suddenly yelled and moved his hand away from Dahlia’s hand.Instead of putting down the bag of tea leaves, he carefully opene
I smell tea
The two guests who arrived indeed had a higher status than the Johnsons.The first was Dahlia’s paternal grandfather, Cornelius Carlson, an entrepreneur who had founded the Carlson Corp more than two decades ago.It was now developing extremely well, and he had handed the company over to Dahlia’s father, Justus Carlson because he was advanced in his years.This time, he had brought Derrick Charleston, the helmsman of the Charleston family, with him.Although the Charlestons were not a top family, they were the top among the second-rate ones and were not to be belittled.Derrick and Cornelius met in the military when they were younger, and back in the day, they were comrades of the same squad.Derrick had even saved Cornelius’s life during one of the battles they fought.So they had been very close to each other over the years.This time, Cornelius visited the Johnsons to congratulate them as Glenda’s father-in-law.On the other hand, Derrick was just accompanying Cornelius.Sir Johnso
Arrival of honored guests
“Stop it! All of you, shut up!” Sir Johnson roared furiously as he stood up all of a sudden, his face as red as a tomato.But immediately afterward, his body swayed back and forth as if he was about to lose his footing.“Dad!”“Sir Johnson!”All the Johnsons hurriedly rushed forward to hold Sir Johnson and help him to his chair while asking one another to bring his medicine over.Mark pushed away Olivia, who was holding Sir Johnson, with all his might.He cursed, “It’s all your fault. Look how angry you’ve made Dad. God forbid anything happens to him. Otherwise, I won’t spare you guys!”Then he glared at Oliver viciously. “Same goes for you. Don’t think I’ll spare you!”Oliver frowned and really wanted to say something, but he could only fall silent after Elijah tugged his sleeve.Sir Johnson suffered from hypertension, and after getting agitated just now, he became dizzy and lost his balance.After being fed some medicine and getting some rest, he returned to normal.But at this mome
A huge shame
Elijah wanted to make Alice proud so that the Johnsons would know that she was not a laughing stock who had to be subject to the ridicule of others just because she had married a good-for-nothing.So he had specially chosen to buy expensive gifts for the Johnsons.Unfortunately, his kindness wasn’t appreciated.And in turn, the Johnsons even humiliated him.As a result, Oliver even exposed all of Olivia’s and their misdeeds because he could no longer tolerate it any further.But Elijah didn’t have a good impression of Olivia and the Johnsons.He felt that they had all brought it upon themselves.Hearing what her siblings and father said, Olivia seemed hesitant.Oliver wanted her to tell the truth, but her family obviously wanted her to deny it.She hesitated for only a brief moment before deciding to say what her family wanted her to.At this moment, Oliver said coldly, “You really should think clearly before you say anything. If you tell a single lie, we’ll get a divorce immediately!
Some family drama
Within the home of the Johnson family, Oliver Wesen, father of Alice, father-in-law of Elijah, and husband to Olivia, was going on a rant, and his brutal words were directed at the members of the Johnson family. “You took money from us several times. But just because I don’t want to say it out loud, it doesn’t mean that I don’t know! You call it a loan every single time, but have you ever returned a single cent? All of you are like bottomless pits that just keep taking money like nobody’s business! Now, you actually have the cheek to turn the tables and say that we rely on you to provide for us. Hah, this is hilarious! Olivia Johnson, have you ever asked your family to return me the money they took in the past few decades of our marriage?“You people are just bloodsuckers who use your Alice to leech off of others. What right do you have to scold me and my son-in-law?”Oliver had probably been suppressing his anger for a long time and thus vented it all out now.Olivia’s jaw dropped,
