“Where’s my son?” Alexander Astley asked Bernard as soon as the butler entered the room.“He’s in the training hall master. I’ve supplemented him with the regime that you requested.” Bernard replied, wiping some blood that’s still left on his glasses.“Well he better learn fast. The sooner he unlocks his own internal energy, the sooner he’d mature.” Alex said.“If I may master.”“What is it?”“I just don’t understand the connection between internal energy and maturity. I’ve never encountered a person who has become mature just because they’ve gotten command over their internal energy before.”“That’s because you don’t know internal energy as much as I do Bernard.” Alex said as he spared a moment to look at Bernard. His eyes gleaming with the golden color that comes from his overflowing internal energy.“There are secrets to this world that humanity has forgotten over time. Things that I personally have connection with.” The man added. “All you need to know is that you need to continue
The rest of the afternoon passed peacefully for Daemon. He didn’t get bothered anymore. Yvonne and Taylor have both been taken care of and, as far as other bastards are concerned, nobody wanted to follow up where others already failed. Though this also directly correlates to the fact that he has a high notoriety now, Daemon couldn’t care less. In fact, this is precisely what he wants.Things are just starting and the blocks that he is putting together are perfectly standing the way he wants them to. But the base is still shaky as it currently is. There are some pieces that are still missing and, to complete it, he went to the person that will complete what is still lacking and that means meeting up at the rooftop of the Academy.There are pieces of important information that Daemon gathered before he left the Elites Headquarters. With the help of Desmond, Daemon is able to get the data of all the scholars of the Elites that are still studying in the Academy. The reason why he has to d
“You invited HIM?”These are the first words that came out of Bellatrix lips as soon as she saw Arthur Cypher. Just as Daemon promised her, they met up in the evening of that same day. And just like what Daemon said, he brought along another person. The third and probably final one because he doesn’t plan on making anyone else join in on this anymore. It’s just them and that’s why he has to make this work no matter what.“Yup. He’s the last person that I talked about.” Daemon simply replied. Not bearing any sort of emotion towards the decision just as what Cypher is also showing.“Is there a problem between the two of you that I should know about?” Daemon added.“Let’s just get to whatever it is that you want to say.” Bellatrix suddenly blurted.In truth, Dameon knows some of the details regarding the connection between his two potential allies. But he’s feigning ignorance, all for the sake of making sure that he remains on the good side of both these individuals. Though that is nothi
There is a single mission that Daemon needs to do. Among the three main targets that he has, his goal is the one given to him – to dispose of Damian and all of this bastard’s lackeys. However, that is a task that is easier said than done. Daemon cannot deny the fact that Damian holds a lot of influence around the Academy, owing to the fact that this target belongs to the trio that runs the whole of the Academy.But that doesn’t mean he cannot start because he is. Daemon is now beginning his conquest – his goal of taking down Damian. And for this to happen, he needs to wipe away a certain type of nuisance that is blocking his path and, this is none other than Jackson Andrews.For the most part, it can be said that Damian and Jackson have a symbiotic relationship. They both benefit from one another, with Damian being the tech support that allows all of Jackson’s illegal operations to work seamlessly. That’s right. Jackson and his family is the owner of a gambling corporation and, as an
Jackson Andrews sat at a crate in an old house that’s owned by his business partners – the Viper Gang. Around him are the goons that he paid for to protect him during his operations. After all, he’s scamming a lot of people with this gambling app of his so it’s a small wonder that there’d be a lot who are out for his life.Nevertheless, that hasn’t fazed him all this time. Far from it, the bastard has only become more and more bold with the passing of time. He’s expanded his operations and extorted a lot of students who cannot pay for loans that are made just to play in the gambling app a bit more. That being said, he’s now surrounded with people who can easily wipe away all the bullies in the Academy. These thugs hail from various groups. Though most of them are bought from the Viper organization, there are a couple of these that he picked up from training centers and from the streets. Those that won’t thi
Jackson Andrews arrived with his gang at the docks just as Daemon ordered him to. With a heart thumping so loud that it can be heard up to his ears and fingers that are trembling, the pale faced teenager walked forward. Towards the darkness that leads to the docks.There are no people there at that time because, it is prohibited to be in the docks past ten in the evening. This is to reduce the number of drug related events that can happen in its vicinity and, to make sure that this remains the case, there are cctv cameras placed across the entirety of the area. Allowing for good surveillance even if there are no guards nor security there.As for Jackson, well, he went along with the order that Daemon gave. There are a couple of reasons why he can’t back out. But the main one is because, Daemon’s also contacted the third person in command – Tristan. Daemon told this person about what he also told Jackson, thus leaving no escape route. If Jackson backs out, he will look like a coward. T
Everything is planned ahead.Just like any other fight that Dameon had to go through before, he set up a couple of plans before he executed the actual fight against his new target. That’s the only way he can guarantee his victory while reducing casualties to a minimum and, at the same time, clearing up his tracks so that there won’t be any trouble afterwards.That is the kind of person he is.That is how he’s fought all this time and, since nobody has ever survived actual combat with him before, those that require the life of a person to be placed at stake, there is nothing that anyone can do to prepare for him. When Dameon is prepared to kill – that is when he is the most dangerous. After all, this human that resurrected under a contract with a demon lord does not run out of plans.This fight against Jackson happened with the same logic. Daemon made sure that he’d secure the second in command, Godfrey, when this person is alone. To do this, Daemon tasked Cypher in monitoring the move
“This just in.”“The docks of Yorkshire City has been burned. The cause of which is a large explosion that caught the whole place in fire.”“The nearest fire department has been notified of the event and has responded as quickly as they can. Thankfully, they’re able to extinguish it before it got worst.”“In the same event there are crates of what seems to be crack cocaine that’s been found. The police department immediately seized all the drugs, and is now on an operation to look for whoever it is that owns these.”“Mayoral Candidate Alexander Astley promised that he’d use whatever resources he can offer to get to the bottom of all this. Both the explosions and the owner of the drugs.”*Click*Within a table, five students of the Academy are seated. Three sophomores and two seniors, with the presiding chair occupied by none other than Damian Silvers. Another chair is left empty because the one that’s supposed to be sitting there is nowhere to be found.“Well?” Damian began. “Can anyo
