As Edward delved into the contents of the flash drive, he discovered a series of folders and files. The more he examined them, the more his heart sank. What he found in those files were photographs, photographs that shook him to his core.The images depicted various scenes, each more unsettling than the last. There were photographs of family gatherings, some of them dating back years. But what disturbed Edward the most were the close-up shots of his family members. These weren't ordinary pictures; they were photographs with hidden depths.In one picture, he saw his grandfather, Victor, with an expression that sent chills down his spine. It was a look of malevolence, one that he had never seen on his grandfather's face before.In another photo, he found a shot of Uncle Elias, seemingly in pain, with a syringe nearby. It was evident that someone had been conducting experiments on him.Edward continued to scroll through the images, his hands trembling. There were more photographs, each r
Edward, observing Ivy's reddened cheeks, grew concerned. He gently asked, "Did I apply too much pressure during the massage? Are you alright?"Ivy, still feeling a bit flustered, quickly shook her head. "No, no, it was perfect. I just got a bit... carried away with how good it felt."As their conversation continued, The System chimed with a notification.[Ding!][System: Domination Points earned - 65][New Domination Points total - 555][You now have enough Domination Points to unlock Mentality Level 2. Would you like to do so now?]Edward's heart swelled with a mixture of happiness and relief. Finally, he had enough Domination Points to unlock Mentality Level 2. This would give him additional mental fortitude and capabilities that would be essential in the upcoming battles he anticipated.While his mind was focused on this achievement, Ivy observed his elation and believed it was because of her response to the massage. Seeing Edward so pleased, Ivy couldn't help but think that her co
As Edward ventured out into the chaos beyond the damaged room, the scene that greeted him was one of devastation.The explosions had taken a toll on the mansion's security personnel. Many of the guards lay lifeless on the ground, victims of the initial blasts. Those who had survived were engaged in a fierce firefight with a group of attackers who had infiltrated the mansion.Edward didn't hesitate. He knew he had to do whatever it took to put an end to this threat. With a focused mind and the power of his enhanced Mentality Level 2, he tapped into his physical abilities, pushing himself to the limit.His strength surged to its maximum, and he moved with unparalleled speed and agility. Bullets seemed to move in slow motion as he darted through the chaotic battlefield, dodging gunfire effortlessly.With lightning-fast reflexes, he disarmed one of the attackers, sending the assailant sprawling. In the blink of an eye, he incapacitated another with a precise strike. His movements were a b
Edward nodded, his mind racing with thoughts about the attackers and their motives. "We need to figure out who's behind this and why they targeted us. Ivy's safety is my top priority."Brenda, noticing Ivy's concern, placed a comforting hand on her shoulder. "Ivy, we're here for you. We'll get through this together."Ivy managed a small smile, grateful for the support of her friends and her cousin. "Thank you, Brenda. Thank you, everyone."Ivy sipped her milk coffee with pleasure, feeling the warmth spread throughout her body. She looked around, noticing the details of Edward’s simple but cozy wooden house. She wondered what made Edward choose this place as his home.“Edward, what makes you like this place?” she asked with curiosity.Edward's expression shifted, and he seemed to be deep in thought. Unbeknownst to Ivy, he had initiated a telepathic message to the system to perform a hidden check. 'System, I need you to perform a detection to see if Ivy has been influenced by Xavier's
Edward wasted no time. He swiftly made his way to the helipad, where a waiting helicopter's rotors were already spinning impatiently. He instructed the pilot to take off as quickly as possible, directing their course toward President Bill's residence. In the tense moments that followed, he meticulously checked his weapons and gear, ensuring everything was in order.The urgency of the situation weighed heavily on him. He understood that flying directly to President Bill's house posed a significant risk. After all, his enemy was none other than Cassius Drake, the formidable head of the Leo family, known for his telekinetic abilities. According to Victoria's words, Cassius was capable of moving even a small building with his mind. Despite his confidence in his own abilities, Edward knew better than to underestimate him.As the helicopter sped toward its destination, Edward swiftly dialed Robert's number, his voice tense and focused. "Robert, listen carefully. I need you to prepare a car
Eva, who secretly had a crush on Edward, felt a mix of emotions when she saw Edward come to save her. She was terrified of her fate in the hands of the villains, but also happy to see Edward, the man who always had a place in her heart, risking his life to protect her. She felt that Edward was her hero and guardian, who would always keep her safe from harm.When Edward offered his hand to help her stand up, Eva grabbed it tightly, feeling his warmth and strength. She looked at Edward with tearful eyes, full of gratitude and love."Edward, thank you. You have saved my life," Eva said softly.Edward returned her gaze with a gentle and caring expression. He felt relieved to see that Eva had no serious injuries, only some scratches and bruises. He caressed her cheek softly, soothing Eva."Don't worry, Eva. I'm here for you. I won't let anyone hurt you again," Edward said firmly.Eva smiled sweetly, feeling her heart pounding. She wanted to hug Edward and kiss him, but she remembered somet
Edward dashed towards Cassius. He hoped to catch him off guard with his super speed and strength, but Cassius was ready for him. He used his super telekinesis to hurl a sofa at Edward, who barely dodged it. The sofa crashed into the wall, leaving a huge dent.Edward didn’t slow down, he ran around the room, avoiding the objects that Cassius threw at him with his mind. He saw an opening and lunged at Cassius, aiming for his throat. Cassius reacted quickly, he lifted Edward in the air with his telekinesis and slammed him into the ceiling. Edward felt a sharp pain in his back, but he didn’t give up. He used his strength to punch a hole in the ceiling and free himself from Cassius’s grip.He fell to the floor, landing on his feet. He saw Cassius looking at him with a smirk. He knew he had to end this fast, before Cassius could use his telekinesis to crush him. He charged at him again, this time with more force. He hoped to surprise him with his speed, but Cassius was faster. He used his t
Edward’s answer did not satisfy President Bill, who was still curious about the power he had seen earlier. It was unlike anything he had ever witnessed, and it seemed to defy the laws of physics and logic. He wondered if Edward was some kind of magician, or perhaps a superhuman."Edward, I have to ask you something," President Bill said, his voice serious. "What was that power you used back there? How did you heal us and teleport us to this car? It was too magical."Edward sighed, knowing that he couldn’t avoid the question any longer. He decided to tell them the truth, or at least part of it."It’s not magic, Mr. President. It’s a skill. A very secret skill that only a few people in the world know about. And it’s the reason why we’re in this mess."President Bill and Eva looked at him with confusion and interest, waiting for him to elaborate.Edward continued, "The power I used is called Quantum Manipulation. It’s the ability to manipulate the quantum state of matter and energy at wi
