The Ascent of Jeffery Flamel; Restoring Alchemy's Legacy CHAPTER 47
Steve’s brows furrowed as he studied Jeffery. “You’re really not worried?”Jeffery chuckled, shaking his head. “Should I be?”Steve let out a frustrated breath. “You don’t know what kind of bastard Bob is. He doesn’t just hold grudges—he enjoys crushing people. He won’t let you walk out of here with your dignity intact.”Jeffery tilted his head in amusement. “That’s assuming he can do anything to me in the first place.”Steve gritted his teeth. “You’re underestimating him.” He leaned in, voice low. “Bob isn’t just some trust-fund brat who throws tantrums. His family has deep connections. If he wants to ruin someone, he doesn’t have to lift a finger—his people will handle it for him.”Jeffery remained silent, watching Steve with mild interest.Steve sighed, rubbing his temple. “You don’t know the things they’ve done to my family. The Prescots have been trying to suffocate our business for years. They spread false rumors, bribed officials, even blackmailed some of our key investors.
The Ascent of Jeffery Flamel; Restoring Alchemy's Legacy CHAPTER 48
The surrounding conversations quieted as Bob stood before Jeffery, his glare sharp with hostility. But Jeffery, unfazed, met his gaze with a bored expression, as if Bob was nothing more than a mild inconvenience.Bob’s sneer deepened. “I don’t remember giving you an invitation,” he spat. “Why the hell is a worthless nobody like you at my party?”Jeffery barely reacted. He tilted his head slightly, his voice calm. “I’m here representing Rita Stirling. Is that a problem?”Bob’s sneer faltered, his face twisting with barely restrained rage. His fists clenched at his sides, jealousy burning in his eyes.“You?” he barked. “Who the hell gave you the right to represent Rita? I never gave you permission to be here!”Jeffery smirked. “I didn’t ask for your permission.” He leaned back lazily. “But if you want me gone, go ahead. Just don’t expect Rita to accept any of your invitations in the future.”Bob’s entire body tensed. A vein throbbed at his temple, his face darkening with fury.The crow

Jeffery’s face remained stoic, but a sharp, searing pain lanced through his chest. He didn’t let it show—couldn’t let it show. His jaw tightened imperceptibly as he processed Bob’s words. How the hell did Bob know about his past? About her? His mind raced, but his expression betrayed nothing. He was a fortress, unyielding and impenetrable.Then Bob raised his hand, signaling someone forward. Jeffery’s eyes flicked to the side, and his blood ran cold.Aadam and Cora stepped into view, their faces adorned with wicked, triumphant smiles. Cora, his ex-wife, looked as polished and cruel as ever, her eyes gleaming with malice. Aadam stood beside her, his smirk dripping with arrogance.Jeffery’s fists clenched at his sides, his nails digging into his palms. He didn’t move, didn’t speak. He just watched, his gaze icy, as they approached.Bob turned to Cora and Aadam, his voice dripping with mockery. “So, tell me, when did you two start deceiving Jeffery here? Cora, when did you realize he
The Ascent of Jeffery Flamel; Restoring Alchemy's Legacy CHAPTER 50
There was a great silence as everyone watched what was happening, no one daring to interfere.It wasn't as if they even wanted to interfere in the first place. They all supported Bob and despised Steve and Jeffery.If anything, they wanted both of them to suffer and be humiliated by Bob in the past.The two people who wanted Jeffery's and Steve's humiliation more than anyone else were none other than Aadam and Cora.And they wanted it really badly. In fact, they couldn't control themselves any longer and clenched their fists as they watched what was happening.Seeing the gazes of everyone on him, Steve couldn't help but feel a great sense of humiliation he had never felt in his entire life.The gazes that were on him were filled with so much mockery and contempt. It was as if everyone was staring at a piece of trash and not a human being."Why are you being so quiet now?" Bob asked as he snickered. "I thought you were being so high and mighty some seconds ago. Where did that courage g
The Ascent of Jeffery Flamel; Restoring Alchemy's Legacy CHAPTER 51
When Jeffery walked up to the guard and spoke to him, everyone became more surprised. It was one thing to talk to Bob in a very disrespectful manner, but it was an entirely different matter to walk up to a guy who was way taller and had more weight than him! Seeing how Jeffery wasn't as huge as the guard, they felt that it would really be a death wish for him to even think of picking a fight with the guard."Jeffery!" Bob yelled as he clenched his fists. "I've tried to let you off several times because you're Rita's representative! I'm trying to overlook your stupidity, but that doesn't mean you have the right to do or say anything you want to say!"When Jeffery heard this, he didn't immediately respond. Instead, he was staring at the guard as he said, "You have to let him go right now before I lose my temper.""Or what?" the guard asked as he glared at Jeffery, who was way smaller than him. To call the man a hulk of a man was an understatement. He was literally a mountain of a m

Jeffery ignored the total silence in the hall and dusted the suit he was wearing before straightening it. He then behaved as if nothing had happened just now and walked up to Steve, who was still kneeling in bafflement as he massaged his wrist. "Are you alright?" Jeffery asked in a calm tone, completely oblivious to Bob, who was staring at him in utter shock. Steve, who never imagined that Jeffery was this strong, couldn't help but swallow hard as he replied, "I'm fine." "You don't seem fine," Jeffery replied. "Your wrist seems to have dislocated." "How—" Steve wanted to ask, but then he remembered that Jeffery used to run a small clinic before. So he kept shut and nodded instead while saying, "It's just a small injury. I'll be fine." "No, you won't be fine," Jeffery said as he grabbed Steve's hand without waiting for the man's permission. "I need to make sure you're fine, seeing how you stood up for me earlier." "No, everything is absolutely fine," Steve said with a slight smi
The Ascent of Jeffery Flamel; Restoring Alchemy's Legacy CHAPTER 53
While observing the guards who had already surrounded him, Jeffery calmly took off his jacket and folded it before turning his head towards one of the guards."Do you mind if I give you this jacket to hang onto?"Met with this ridiculous question, the guard was stumped. But before he could even realize what was happening, Jeffery had already moved toward him with his right palm opened wide. Everything happened in a flash, and before the others could even move an inch from where they were standing, Jeffery struck the man in the chest several times.Instantly, the man's acupoints were blocked, causing him to be paralyzed. He immediately coughed up mouthfuls of blood, his legs shivering intensely. He tried moving but couldn't and remained standing where he was, his eyes wide open as he stared at Jeffery in shock."Thank you," Jeffery said as he placed his jacket on the man's right shoulder."What are you all waiting for?!" Bob yelled in anger. "Attack him at the same time! Don't give him
The Ascent of Jeffery Flamel; Restoring Alchemy's Legacy CHAPTER 54
As Jeffery walked out of the hall, he couldn't help but clench his fists as he took a very deep breath. Just now, he had been acting tough, showing that there was no way Bob would be able to touch him even if he wanted to. But that wasn't really the case. Although he was now more powerful compared to the past and had a pharmacy in partnership with Rita Stirling, he was still far from where he wanted to be. He felt that he was still as insignificant as before—just that he had gained alchemical knowledge.Another thing was that he actually thought he had gotten over Cora, his ex-wife. But that wasn't the case either. He was still plagued by the heartbreak that stemmed from Cora's mockery and betrayal in the past. It wasn't something he could easily get over, not when he kept coming across her. It was something that needed time to be cleared out of his heart."I thought by focusing on alchemy and building my pharmacy, I would be able to clear everything from my mind," Jeffery told hims

After realizing that the other advanced alchemist was already dealing with Kimiko, Jeffery immediately rushed towards Yuri who was seated on the ground and tapped him on his acupoints, blocking his mana instantly. This way he wouldn't be able to heal and escape no matter what.He then turned to Rita and said, "I need to see how Kimiko is doing. He's fighting against an advanced alchemist and I don't think he's going to hold out for long."Rita nodded and said, "Go along. I'm behind you.""No," Jeffery said as he grabbed Rita and carried her. "I'm not going to leave you here. You're coming with me immediately."This was because there could be more assassins hiding in the shadows and waiting for the right moment to strike. He couldn't allow Rita to be endangered no matter because he had already made a promise to Mr. Stirling. He had to protect his daughter no matter what, even if his life was put on the line.The moment Jeffery grabbed and carried her, a warm feeling immediately spread
CHAPTER 97
Without even been hit by Sasuke Kimiko could feel his the blood in his entire body boil from the attack. It was as if his blood has turned into acid, trying to melt his skin. But then he didn't allow that to stop him from dodging the fist aimed at his head, dodging in another direction. But he was very slow for Sasuke who immediately kicked his back with his right foot.The impact of the kick sent Kimiko flying into the air. He then crashed to the ground with a loud thud, rolling across the ground for some seconds before coming to a stop near a fountain."You think you can suddenly defeat me because you've spent some time with Jeffery?" Sasuke said as he walked towards Kimiko. "You think you've suddenly gotten the boldness to suddenly defeat me? You're nothing but an idiot if you think that's the case!"With those words Sasuke immediately lunged towards Kimiko, grabbing him by the neck and lifting him into the air. This caused Kimiko to choke but there was nothing he could do because
CHAPTER 96
The advanced alchemist who had been tasked with killing Kimiko couldn't help but scoff when he saw him take a fighting stance. This was because he felt this was absolutely futile. He was already an advanced alchemist while Dan Kimiko was only a professional alchemist. Even if he was one level higher than Kimiko, the gap was too big. He would be able to crush him without even using his full strength!"I think you should know by now that there's nothing you'd be able to do," the advanced alchemist said as he walked towards Kimiko who was already bleeding. "I'm way powerful than you, Kimiko."When he said this he raised his face so that Kimiko could see who he was. And it was at this moment Kimiko recognized the advanced alchemist, his eyes widening in horror. This was because he knew this advanced alchemists very well. He was one of the few renowned advanced alchemists in Japan. He was even among the top twenty alchemists in the entire Japan! He was none other than Yuri Sasuke!"Now tha
Chapter 95
A few minutes ago.Kimiko was still standing, watching over the surrounding just like Jeffery had asked him to do. Several times it crossed his mind to escape but he decided against it. It wasn't because he was afraid that Jeffery would retaliate against him if he escaped. No, that wasn't the truth.The reason he didn't leave was because he felt that he could have so much opportunity to grow with Jeffery. This was something he had not felt when he was with his master and it was really strange. Although Jeffery still had not mentioned anything about alchemy to him and had just created a potion to cure him and Javier, he was still optimistic that he would be able to grow.Hence he decided to remain and watch the surrounding, immediately waving the thought of escaping from his mind. He had already given his word that he would remain as Jeffery's bodyguard and he was going to do so no matter what."Master always wanted me to remain a professional alchemist," Kimiko told himself. "I'm not
Chapter 94
When Jeffery told Rita that I was a master alchemist she was still confused. She didn't understand what he was saying because she had not heard of an alchemist before. She could only stare at Jeffery, waiting for him to explain things to her."You've heard about alchemists in books, right?" Jeffery said. "You should have also heard about them in real life, right?""I've definitely heard about them," Rita said. "But I don't understand how you're an alchemist."When Rita said this Jeffery couldn't help but narrow his eyes. This was because when he told Rita that he was a master alchemist, she didn't show shock. Instead of been shocked she showed confusion. It was as if she already knew that there were supernatural things in this world but didn't know that there were people who had supernatural abilities.And it was at that moment he remembered the bracelet Rita used to always were in the past. He had been so occupied in his work that he forgot that she stopped wearing it for a long peri

The powerful punch connected with his face, causing all his teeth to fly out instantly. Blood came spraying out of his mouth as his jawbones were broken instantly. The pain he felt at that moment was strong enough to cause him to pass out but he didn't. This was because a strange energy had seeped into his body, stopping him from passing out on time.What kind of opponent is this?! he thought within himself as he widened his eyes, looking at the figure who was standing before him. By now the wind which he summoned had died down. Only the flames of fire which was burning the dining room remained. His entire body was already burning from the fire but there was no way he could escape from the fire.He tried to manipulate the earth element and undo the spell the figure in front of him had used against him, using every mana he had left in him. But no matter how he tried he could not pull off any spell that could destroy the diamond which kept him in place. It was as if this diamond keeping
Chapter 92
As the chandelier fell towards Rita who was lying on the ground, Jeffery immediately kicked his feet off the ground and dived towards her. He then spread out his arms like an eagle, floating through the air like a weightless piece of paper. And before the chandelier could crash onto Rita he swooped her off the ground, missing the chandelier by a couple of inches.There was a loud crashing sound as the chandelier fell to the ground, shattering into several shards which flew here and there. Jeffery had to block the incoming shards with his body, shielding Rita who would have gotten stabbed by those shards. He would have used his abilities as an alchemist but he didn't do so. This was because Rita was yet to find out that he actually had supernatural powers. Hence he used his body instead to shield her from the shards of glass which were flying here and there.And by the time everything stopped several shards were already lodged within his body, blood trickling out from the wounds. Rita
Chapter 91
That evening Jeffery was invited to the Stirling family villa again to have dinner. This time Mr. Stirling was not around because he was away on a very important trip which Rita didn't tell him about. So it was just Rita and him at the dining table. Javier remained at his villa while Kimiko remained within the vicinity of the Stirling villa to look out for potential assassins.After offending the Prescott family so many times, Jeffery felt it was finally time for them to retaliate and he knew they were going to do it no matter what it takes. And he knew that they would definitely go after everyone who was affiliated with him, especially Rita Stirling. Hence he decided that Kimiko stood on the lookout for assassins. And as a professional alchemists he felt that it wouldn't be hard for Kimiko to do his job. Except of course the assassins sent were all advanced alchemists then Kimiko would be able to take care of all of them without him having to interfere at all.It was at this moment t
Chapter 90
After seeing that Jeffery slapped Paul everyone was shocked and couldn't believe their eyes. They had thought that Paul Prescott was untouchable but just right now a young man slapped him! They couldn't help but wonder if this young man really depended on the Stirling family or he had some power of his own. This was because even the Stirling family wouldn't do something like this."You..." Paul tried talking but his mouth began to hurt intensely and he couldn't help but cough, spitting out blood as he staggered backwards. Right now it seemed as if he had been slapped by a spanner and not a human hand. It was absolutely painful and not something he could bear at the moment.The cops who had been knocked down by Jeffery picked themselves up and immediately got to his side. The sergeant immediately said, "Jeffery Flamen, you're under arrest for assault—"Before the sergeant even finished what he was saying Rita stepped in front of Jeffery, glaring at him. As she did this she thought with
