..Before anyone fully realized what was happening, they all found themselves loaded into police vehicles. Most of the students were handcuffed together, their wrists shackled in pairs. Confusion and fear painted their faces as they exchanged nervous glances, trying to make sense of the chaos unfolding around them. Landon was not spared from this treatment. He, too, was cuffed and escorted into one of the vehicles alongside the others. However, the only exception was Frank. Everyone noticed how he was handled differently. Frank was not placed in the same type of vehicle as the other students. Instead, he was loaded into a personal police van, one typically used for serious offenders, despite his visibly injured state. To everyone’s shock, the needles embedded in Frank’s body were not even removed. Instead of an ambulance or medical personnel attending to his injuries, the officers simply restrained him and transported him like a dangerous criminal. The sight left the students uns
..Eve initially struggled to comprehend Landon’s statement when he voiced it. Her brows furrowed slightly, and she tilted her head in confusion. After a brief pause, she spoke, her tone carrying a hint of uncertainty. “Forgive me, young master, but I don’t quite understand what you mean,” Eve said carefully. “How are we supposed to investigate every student for being spies or terrorists? From what we know, none of the students have any connection to terrorism. This situation doesn’t seem related to terrorism at all. How does interrogating them under such pretenses solve anything?” Her confusion was genuine. Eve was highly competent, but Landon’s sudden leap to terrorism as a cover story left her momentarily puzzled. Hearing her question, Landon chuckled softly, a mischievous smile spreading across his face. He didn’t seem offended by her skepticism; instead, he appeared amused by it. “Oh, my bad,” Landon replied casually, leaning back in his chair with a faint smirk. “Let me
..Muzak Pizza, Dimvale City.Ring! Ring! Ring!Landon parked his courier bike in front of the pizza shop and then his phone rang out loudly.Without hesitation, he picked up the call after identifying the caller’s ID.“Hello, Jude.”[“Hey Landon where the hell are you bro?! The party has already begun and I have still not seen you!” ]“Sorry, Bro. I just delivered my last order of the day so I should be there in thirty minutes.”[ Come on bro! I thought you said you would close from work 1 hour before the party. This job is taking a toll on you. You know…I’ve already told you, you don’t have to depend on the job. I can help you out! We are brothers after all! ]“I know bro and I appreciate your help but I’ll be okay. I will definitely be there in 30 minutes.”Landon felt touched when Jude, his dorm mate offered to help him but he did what he had always done. Refuse Jude’s help.Landon was a poor 23-year-old guy who attended the prestigious Cradle Valley University but he could only
..“Tricia!”Landon screamed in pain.It was not so hard for a baby to notice that his scream was one of pain from his soul.Landon was still finding it hard to believe his eyes. Didn’t Tricia say she was sick? Then why is she here?! She had told him that she’s sick but she’s currently here sucking on someone else’s crotch! And, it was not just someone’s crotch but his hated enemy’s crotch! There’s no mistake in what he had just seen?!“Tricia! What are you doing?!” Landon screamed at the top of his lungs in anger!His mind was already lost to anger. It has been six months now since he started dating Tricia but he hasn’t gotten even a kiss from her.Seeing her doing such a thing as sucking on Xander’s crotch made him extremely angry! Such a thought was enough to drive him insane that he had to doubt if this was an illusion or imaginary but his anger got the best of him!“Landon!…w-why are you here?…” Tricia, who was a beauty adverted his gaze as she tried to cover herself up because
..Blink.Landon opened his eyes to see a familiar scenery.He was back in his dorm room.‘What happened?…’It was then the memories of yesterday night flooded his mind.This got him to sit up.Slap.Landon gave himself a slap on his cheek, trying to wake himself from the little slumber that was still left in his eyes.‘What a dream?…’{ “You will be the most capable man in the world but it would come at a price..” }A memory of his conversation with the strange being flooded his mind.Landon frowned. He knew he was forgetting a lot of things regarding his communication with this strange being but he clearly remembered one thing.In a state of his injury, this being had promised him all the wealth in the world but he had to pay a price. He knew that he had a long conversation with this being but he could not remember anything. {“You will be the most capable man in the world but it will come at a price”}The only thing he could remember was that. Just a few words from this being… the
..“Young master?” Landon frowned.[“Yes young master where are you right now?” ]Landon was confused. The female voice on the other end of the phone was too enticing to listen to unfortunately this lady must have mistaken him for someone else. He’s anything but a young master.“I’m sorry you must have the wrong number.” Landon replied and he was almost about to hang up.[ “No, no, no! Young master, I have the right number!” The female voice replied frantically on the phone. “I want to see you so that I can get you to catch up on things. I’m sure you must have already met him already. I’m sure you must have met our lord.” ]Our lord? What lord? Landon had to pause because he was so confused at the moment.It was almost as if the voice on the other end of the phone saw Landon’s confusion so she spoke again:[ “You must have met our Lord. The Crimson silhouette.” ]Landon was unconvinced with what the lady was saying on the other end of the phone but when he heard her words again his a
..The loud sound of the mighty bodyguard’s fist connecting with something resounded in the entire restaurant but the scene of Landon being punched to the ground did not happen.“W-What?!” The bodyguard’s eyes became widened.His fist was held in place in the air by a hand that was much smaller than his.Landon had easily caught his fist in the air like it was nothing.Now his body was standing still, with his fist still trapped by Landon’s smaller hand. It was almost like the bodyguard was struggling to move his fist but it did not move.The bodyguard’s eyes met Landon's gaze for a second only to notice the Crimson shimmer in Landon’s eyes, causing a cold shiver to go down his spine.At this point, Landon looked like the Devil.“What?!”“Did he really just stop the bodyguard that is way twice as big as him?”“That’s impossible! It can’t be! The poor guy does not look anything athletic at all!”“But that’s what is happening right now, he stopped the big bodyguard’s fist with only one
..Landon was stunned.What the hell is really going on?!‘No…this has to be a joke right..’To be honest, since yesterday things are so strange that he has so many questions to ask but he did not expect his mysterious caller to be like this. First of all how did she know she had seen a mysterious crimson silhouette? Who is she? How did she get his number?At first he had thought that his encounter with the crimson silhouette was a dream but this lady before him is making him think otherwise…and to top it all of he didn’t expect his mysterious caller to turn out like this.“Are you the one who called me?” Landon asked.“Yes, young master. You can call me Eve.” Eve looked around and understood the current situation going on so she took action. “Young master, why don’t we go somewhere private so that we can talk?”Then why the hell does she keep referring to him as young master?!Landon was still stunned but he nodded. He was sick of this place already.Eve turned around as they walked
