"Enemy?" the voice chuckled from the other end. "Depends on how you put it. You see Drew, I want to make use of you. Or to be percise, both of you. You both have something that greatly piques my interest" Drew's grip on the phone tightened. It was taking him all he had to resist pulverizing it with a single squish. "I swear if you lay a finger on that kid, you're going to hear it rough from me!" "As if.." the other party sniffed with disdain. "I'll give you two days. If you can't locate me by then, then the only thing locating you would be that kid's corpse!" A threat! A naked threat. Squish! Drew could no longer suppress his rage, squashing the phone into bits... Dr. Collins smiled after he noticed the call disconnected. "You bastard! if big brother-in-law finds you, you're toast! his amazingness is on a whole other level!" Rick piped, straining his throat due to the effort he put at screaming loudly.He was tied to a large testing table and two burly security men flanked
"That token!" both Dr. Collins and Holts gasped when they saw the token Drew held up. Holts was part of the military and Dr. Collins worked for the government. As such, they were both aware of the illustrious existence of the country's ten great War Generals. "Where did you get that token from?!" Holts asked cautiously. He wasn't stupid enough to provoke one of the country's ten greatest War Generals. A single word from the latter and his whole family would be eradicated. "This token was given to me by Lord Silver Dragon General. Scared?" Drew taunted. Who would've expected that Dr. Collins would burst into laughter. Even the tight expressim on Holts face loosened up. "Pft.. given to you by the Silver Dragon General? who do you think you are? are you worthy?" Dr. Collins sneered. The ten great War Generals were legendary existences in the country. Only the country's top family could afford the privilage of seeing them once in a while.Even the Patriarchs of Delta City were
CeeKay Herbal Garden was the largest trading firm in the whole of Rose Gates. They often bought rare herbs and sold them back at sky high prizes. They were also major partners of Red Mist Auction house. Their monthly Auction events often attracted the eyes of those within and beyond Delta City. It wouldn't be far-fetched to say they occupied sixty percent of the herb market in the whole of Delta City. Drew walked into the lobby of the main headquarters. Besides him was Rick, who kept staring around like an inquisitive village bumpkin. "Hello Sir, what would you like to buy?" a female sales agent walked over to Drew, bowing cautiously. Rose Gates due to it's illustrious reputation was a breeding ground for various crouching tigers and sleeping tigers. Big family Patriarchs, top government officials, big business bigwigs.. One could mistakenly offend a seemingly ordinary passer-by who was actually a bigshot wanting to purchase some rare herbs.It was only in Rose Garden that the
"I'll pay twenty thousand!" These words echoed loudly in the ears of the Shop keeper, almost making him go deaf. What's wrong with this people? couldn't they see that the couldron was just a useless piece of junk?! "Uhm.. esteemed young lady, can you repeat your words again?" he asked with a polite smile, afraid that he might've misheard. "I will buy that Couldron for twenty thousand bucks. Wrap it up for me!" the rich young miss clicked her tongue in a haughty manner. "Excellent!" the Shop keeper clapped with glee, about to wrap up the item. "Wait" Drew called out with a frown. "I made the offer to purchase that couldron before she did. Isn't it first come first serve?" "Hah" the Shop keeper let out a depressed sigh. "It's not like I don't stick to business ethics. It's just that I feel you are down-paying me" "Down-paying you?" "Yes. Yes. I made a slip of tongue. This couldron is actually worth twenty three thousand. Your two thousand won't work""Shameless! pui!" Rick sp
Drew had no choice but to re-evaluate Sora closely. Peak of the Decimus rank? And the worst of all that happened was that Sora was the same age group and achieved all this without the help of a system! "Who are you?" he asked. "Do you know what the punishmement for bullying my younger sister?" Sora's eyes flashed with a dangerous glint. "Don't be unreasonable here friend. She had it coming for trying to snatch what I wanted to buy" If anything, Drew didn't want to exchange Blows with Sora. Although he had *Berserk Body*, using the skill was quite taxing to his body. "Then you should've just let her be" Sora replied like it was the perfect thing to say "Tch. Are all you rich folks so daft?" Drew didn't bother trying to mediate with the other party. Fwomb! He threw a fast punch, aiming at Sora's chest. He wanted to punch a hole right through it! "Hmph!" snortly coldly, Sora narrowly missed the strike, retaliating with a kick of his own. How could Drew dodge this? the kick s
-[Rank limit is the upper limit, dividing a rank from another rank. Take for example, a Deviant at the peak of level twenty of the Decimus rank faces off against a Deviant at the first level of the Octavus rank. The former would be completely helpless before the latter, even if they have an innate talent of level skipping, except they can rank skip as well] Hearing these explainations, Oscar finaltly understood just how terrifying Sora was. However, that didn't dampen his confidenbe in the very least. Instead, it roused his desire to spend money even more... The whole family were in the midst of eating lunch when they noticed Drew descending the stairs with a lively expression. Scanning around with his eyes, Drew frowned when he didn't see Amelia. He still had to thank her. If not for her words, he would still have been sulking inside his room. "Stinking brat!" Victoria threw a chunk of orange at Drew, who allowed it to intentionally smash against his face."Ow! that hurts!"
Amelia sensed Drew's mood, causing her to frown with worry. "Are you okay?" "Hm" Drew sucked in a deep breath as he closed the file. "Did Red Mist Corporation start any kind of projects recently?" "Now that you mention it, they seem to have gone into real estate investing. I heard they are building a residential villa in West Wings" Amelia replied, with confusion. Why did Drew suddenly become interested in Red Mist Corporation? But she seemed to have thought of something, causing a red ting to appear on her cheeks. "Real estate huh, I want you to monitor their progress in that area. Also, what is the largest real estate company in Delta City?" "I recall it's Junewood Properties" Amelia immersed herself in the business world right from her time as a Red Mist Auction House manager. As such, this was basic knowledge to her. "Good. I want to obtain full rights to that company and it should be transitioned into a subsdiary of Dremelia Investment Group. As for the name.. hmm.. gi
Adam felt an headache coming. Of late, the country has experienced a decline in military might due to the constant wars that the neighbouring countries waged. Bendel was a country blessed with abundant resources. Unfortunately, this sparked the greed of the other neighbouring countries who wanted to have a slice of the juicy cake called Bendel. Although the ten great War Generals had tremendous strength, a tactic agreement barred Deviants of their level from joining in the conflict. As such, they could only helplessly send out weaker troops to the battle ground. But lately, an additional country allied themself with the enemy country, putting great pressure on Bendel Army. To tackle this situation, the government began searching for a way to increase the country's number of Deviants. Dr. Collins was the one in charge of this project. For years he had been going on in his research and lately, his effort began showing some results.But now he was dead. All the years of efforts an
