. . After the cloaked figure vanished, the rest of his masked men retreated as well. Landon could do nothing about it when he saw all the masked men who had attacked the place escaping. The security of the resorts didn’t bother to do anything to try to stop the retreating soldiers. Instead, they just watched them leave. Their reason for this was that the number of masked men was so many and unstoppable that they were the ones being pressured. Their confrontation with the masked men was because they were trying to do their job as security officers and also survive as well. There were so many of the resort's security officers that had run away when they saw the multitudes of masked men attacking. These were the cowards not willing to die because of their salaries as security men. Either way, most of everyone present was relieved to see the masked men retreating. However, Landon felt completely different. His heart ached when he saw the multitudes of masked men retreating. He didn’t
. . “What are you all doing?!” Everyone turned around to look at the person responsible for the bellow. Chul was walking forward and looking at them with a serious expression. Knowing that Chul had never liked Landon, Ruth stepped forward and started explaining. “Chul Kim, we are questioning this bastard if he has seen Jasmine Rivera, Ashley Enoch, and one of our friends Kira but he’s not answering. His attitude is annoying all of us. Knowing how weak he is, he must have run and hid in a corner while something terrible happened to his friends. He’s such a big loser!” “Yes, he is the biggest loser of all that should be taught a lesson!” Elena said as well. They both knew that Chul had gotten into many confrontations with Landon and it was all because of Jasmine Rivera. Since Chul liked Jasmine but Jasmine preferred to be with Landon this made Chul naturally hate Landon and this was a fact everyone had noticed. Both ladies knew this and it was why they wanted to create a situatio
..[“Young master we are here already! Please can you find one of the roofs with space so we can pick you up? We will communicate with the resort for the reason for our arrival.” ] Eve reported from the other end of the call. The sound of the helicopter blade cutting the air could be heard along with her voice.Landon looked around till he saw a suitable rooftop far away from where the students were gathered in the resorts.“Pick me up at the roof with a big blue tank on it,” Landon replied.[“Okay young master.” ]The call between Eve and Landon ended and Landon left the place where the students were gathered on without them noticing. The only person who noticed him leaving was Chul.However, Chul didn’t dare to call out to him. Instead, he felt Landon had not answered his apology. He didn’t want to do anything that would annoy Landon so he decided to let Landon go for now.Meanwhile, Eve was able to communicate with the IT department resort to let them know that they were not a thr
..“Who is this?”The voice on the other end of the call was from a mature man but it was not the same as the man who answered the title of nobody.Landon did not know why the voice felt familiar but it was not the divine slayer martial artist he had just met today calling him.[ “Oh goodness I have been waiting for the day you will ask me this question now that day has finally come.”] The owner of the voice savored the feeling of the moment.“Are you going to keep being a weirdo or are you going to tell me who you are?”The man chuckled over the phone when he heard Landon’s retort. [ “Arrogant as always. Don’t worry when I’m done with you I’m sure this arrogant attitude of yours will be completely gone. But to satisfy your curiosity I am Gerald Taylor.” ]“Gerald Taylor.” When Landon heard the name his eyes suddenly glinted with surprise. “You mean Xander’s father?”[ “Correct! Seems like you have got a good memory to remember a small man like me.” ] Gerald laughed over the phone.T
..“You are free to go.” “What?”When the prison guard announced he was free to go Xander was taken by surprise. It was not only him but his fellow inmates were also taken by surprise as well.“Doesn’t this P*say have to stay here for five years? Why is he getting released now?” The burly man covered in tattoos asked.Xander was so surprised and curious that he listened to hear what the prison guard had to say after hearing his fellow burly inmate's question.“I don’t know but we got an order from the judge to have him released immediately. Can you come out now Mr. Taylor?” The prison guard lazily replied as he opened the gate.“Y-You mean I’m now free to go?” Xander asked still unable to believe his current reality.“Yes, you are free to go. You heard me right. Or do you love your stay here?” The prison guard prompted when he noticed the Xander’s reluctance.“Wait, I’ll come out!” Xander answered again without hesitation as he got to his feet and walked outside the cell with hasten
..Eve had flown in one of the best hackers in the world and in no time they were able to track the location of Xander’s father.They were currently in the west part of the city.Instantly a team of skilled elite soldiers was mobilized for the attack. The team was composed of professional martial artists, three God-level martial artists, and a Divine Slayer martial artist.With such powerful soldiers and a good plan, they were bound to rescue Trixie and the rest of his friends even if the powerful nobody ended up becoming present.Gerald had invited Landon to the outer perimeter of Dimvale City in the east.“A really good place to choose for the location of a meet. The direct opposite distance from their hideout. They forget that they are up against one of the families of the shadows.” Eve scoffed as she watched the assault team leaving the hotel.Xander was completely confused about what was going on and the worst part was that no one bothered to give him any explanation even after
. . “Good Job, Mr. Taylor!” Silent Logan praised from the corner. “Our Sovereign would be pleased.” They had just ended the video session with Landon where he pretended to be the boss and gave the order for Jude, Landon’s best friend to be killed. “Will this help me get my son?” Gerald asked. All the traces of his confidence he had a second ago in the video section were now gone. “Yes, as far as you serve the orange sovereign well we can assure you, you will get your son alive.” Silent Logan chuckled. Gerald bowed. “Thank you for all your help, sir.” “You don’t need to thank me. I am just helping a friend fight a fellow enemy. After all, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.” Silent Logan's voice betrayed his smile from his mask. “I know, but thank you for this opportunity,” Gerald replied sincerely. He was very grateful for Silent Logan’s help because without them approaching him, he wouldn’t have gotten the chance to get this far in getting his son out of prison. A few months
..Inside the uncompleted building in the west region of Dimvale City.Eve felt severe pain when she and the rest of the soldiers were blown back by a shock wave they never expected. Neither of them had expected such a wave from Landon out of anger and anxiety.Even after thirty minutes, neither she nor the men were able to stand up. The effect of the shockwave on their bodies was too strong. When Eve raised her head from her lying position to look at Landon, she found out he was on his knees. Landon has been kneeling in that same position for more than thirty minutes. She could tell that he was going through a great deal of grief. Anyone in Landon’s position would feel grief after watching their close friend get murdered. Eve could tell Landin felt his grief way more than a normal person would because, unlike a normal person who was weak, he had the power to decide the fates of many in the world but he could not change the fate of his friend. Such grief must be really hard for him
