Boss Jay gulped heavily as he stared at the bowl sized crater on the ground, a result of Drew's punch. "You are too powerful grand Patriarch! If that punch had struck me, I am afraid that my body would've been torn to shreds" he praised, while shivering inside. "I only used ten percent of my true strength. The rest was the attack you sent at me, with an extra five percent added" Drew smiled as he revealed. "You are amazing grand Patriarch!" Boss Jay was left in awe, not by the strength Drew displayed, but by the level at which he developed. The first time they met, he felt that although Oscar was stronger than him, it was only by a small margin. The only reason he had chosen to follow him at that time was because of the pair of ear rings he wore. But right now, he felt that choosing to follow Drew was the best decision... After that little spar with Boss Jay, Drew had more or less understood how *Counter* worked.According to the system, he could repel any attacks, even if th
Stephen Robinson snorted smugly at the way the staffs respectfully greeted him. However, he concealed this with a calm expression. "What's this ruckus going on? don't you lot have things you should be doing? or, are you already tired of your jobs?" When the various staffs heard these threats, they directed venemous glares at Drew. "Manager. We are deeply sorry. But all this is due to the direction of this man!" a male staff mustered the courage to say as he pointed his finger at Drew. He wasn't ready to lose his job for a clout chaser's sake. "Him?" Stephen glanced at Drew. No matter what angle he looked at, he found Drew to be very ordinary, apart from his good looks. "Who is he?" Before the staffs could reply, the man who was behind Stephen gasped in surprise. "Well, Well. If it isn't Drew Lucas, kekeke" "Jason, you know this guy?" Stephen turned towards him. "Of course Mr. Stephen. We both attended the same university together" Jason replied with a fawning smile."We did?
The next day, a sweet juicy news began to circulate all around the social circle of Delta City. Apparently, the Wayne family made a public statement about the banishment of Julian and Zack. The father and son pair were no longer part of the prestigious Wayne family. If they were ever caught bearing the surname 'Wayne', they would be charged with a fine of 10 million bucks. Not only that, their house, cars and all other assets were siezed by the Wayne family, essentially leaving them penniless... "Zack, from this moment henceforth, I don't know who you are okay?" "But Timin, I thought we were business pals?" "Thanks for using the word Business. As for we being pals.. please don't get ahead of yourself. How can I be pals with a useless trash who doesn't even have a surname. Good bye for good" Sigh.. Sensing the other party had hanged up, Zack sighed. "None of them want to help us?" Julian who was besides his father asked, with a bleak expression."I am afraid so" Currently,
Silver Moon Groove was one of the most restricted areas in Delta City.. It was where the Vlad family were based. The whole estate was a property owned by the City's undisputed number one family. A scarlet Mustang pulled over in front of the large gate leading to the Silver Moon Manor, the place where the Matriarch of the Vlad family lived in. Pui! Pui! Poon!! The driver inside the Mustang horned loudly. Shortly after, a burly security guard came out through the gate entrance made for only individuals to pass. "Who dares disturb the peace here? don't you know that this is a private property?" the security guard frowned as he arrived besides the Mustang. His noise was pointed so high that it was almost touching the sky. "Good day gentld man. My name is Amelia Walters, the CEO of Dremelia Investment Group" the Mustang driver window slid down slowly, revealing Amelia's pretty face. A bewitching smile was present on her lips, which helped lessen down the Security Guard's hostility.
The next day, a huge tragedy struck Canopy corp. During the previous night, a group of unnamed thugs attacked two of their unleased office building projects, razing them to the ground. Just as many people were still reeling from such a misfortune, another juicy news began to circulate. Many civil engineering and construction companies in partnership with Canopy began making public declartions. According to a huge majority of them, the Robinson family were a bunch of crooks who meddled in illegal dealings, as such they didn't want to associate themselves with the Robinson family, or anything related to them. One by one, they began to annul all partnership deals with Canopy corporation. However, those with sharp eyes could notice that all these were just cheap excuses to disassociate themselves from the Robinson family. Which one of them didn't indulge in shady businesses. As such, the only reasonable issue was that the various business partners were scared of being looped togethe
The next day, Drew had just finished taking breakfast when his phone rang. It was a call from Mr. Henicky: Delta City's mayor. "Good morning" "I have good news for you Drew" Mr. Henicky's voice rang from the end. "Eh?" Drew's interest got piqued. "While I was asking around for where to buy the ingredients for my treatment, I stumbled on a juicy news" "Apparently, there is going to be a large scale Auction in North Heights. It will be hosted by Silver Eagle Auction House. From the rumors I heard, they far oustrip Red Mist Auction House. They fully dominate 50% of the Auction Market in Starling. All their items are super rare. It won't be difficult for you to find a breathing technique among the items they are going to auction off" Mr. Henicky explained. "I even heard that there would be herbs in the mix. You are a Divine Physician right? This Auction is bi-annual so if you miss it, you'd have to wait till the next six month."When is the date of the Auction?" Drew asked. "In th

The first thing Drew saw when he opened his eyes was the system's screen, showing him his latest progress. Due to the continous level ups of both his Soul and Martial cultivation, his body and mind were overexerted, causing him to fall unconscious. "Somebody must have placed me on the bed. Though I wonder who it was" he yawned ar he pushed the duvet off his body. Picking up his phone, he saw that there were eleven missed calls. 3 were from Becky, 4 were from Amelia and the remaining four from
Just at that moment, Drew's phone buzzed.. It was a call from Amelia. "Did Red Mist corporation trouble you again?" he asked after accepting the call. "No. Actually, the Patriarch of the Robinson family is currently with me in my office" Amelia informed him. "You can handle it by yourself right? you don't have to call me for such minor issues" "I know, but the Patriarch insists on meeting up with you. He wants to discuss a partnership with you in person" Amelia sighed as she revealed the reason for her call. "He wants to meet up with me?" Drew frowned. If it was any other day, he would'nt have any qualms with meeting with the other party. But Becky's life was in danger and he was about to go and save her. So, he had no time to waste. "There's an urgent matter I need to tackle over here. How about this.. Tell him to come back next week?" Drew suggested. Apart from rescuing Becky, he also had an auction to attend in two days time."Alright. I will tell him just that"
"Why won't you accept the business proposal? I mean.. it would be in your favor right? you'd have the chance to forge a relationship with my master. Don't tell me you are the short sighted kind of person" this time, Drew no longer sounded confident as his palm became sweaty. "I know that. But if you keep on acting like you have all the winning cards in your pocket, then I'd have to decline. Don't think you can fool me. This is most likely a test given to you by your master so he won't be involved in it unless he sees tangible results. Isn't that right?" Loveth scoffed. "Uhhmm. R-Right " Drew nodded awkwardly. "Well, I think I would be able to improvise then. I'll accept your business proposals " "Really?" hearing that the other party had accepted, Drew's eyes sprang up with joy. With the full support of Silver Eagle Auction House, it would only be a matter of time before he dominates the Herbal market of North Heights. However Loveth's next words dampened his short termed exc
Giving Drew one long look like as if trying to read what was going on in his mind, Loveth collected the jade bottle from him before proceeding to uncork it. And when she did, the whole office became encased in a thick but rich pleasant scent. "This.. This is herbal adorant!" Her eyes lit up in amazement. Although she wasn't a Divine Physician herself, as the manager of Silver Eagles Auction House, it was only natural that she'd be in the company of a few Divine Physicians once in a while. She had even watched some of them brew medicines and according to them, only highest grade medicines could emit a wonderful scent in the air, called adorant. "Looks like you are well informed" Drew chuckled, while inwardly feeling shocked. After all, it was only after he had upgraded the skill *Ancient Shamanic Medicine* to the max did he finally knew what adorant meant in the field of medicine. "Judging by the intensity of the adorant being emitted.. this is a high quality medicine. Were y
"Eh?" Drew stared at the other party, unable to understand why she was rejecting him from meeting up with Loveth. "May I ask the reason why?" he asked. "Well, you are probably not from this city so you might not know this. This building is just one of the storehouses owned by Silver Eagles Auction House. It was only used to host the auction event days ago. After that, Madame Loveth returned back to the head office of Silver Eagles Auction House. I am the Manager of this store house. My name is Patricia Holmes" the chubby lady revealed. "Oh, I didn't know that" Drew nodded in understanding. "So where exactly is the headquarters located?".. "The young master called for me?" Currently inside a large balcony, a youngster sat comfortably on a throne like chair, sipping merrily from the glass of wine being fed to him by a female clad in scanty clothing. At his other side was another scantily dressed female feeding him chips while another scantily dressed female was was huddled in
"How long was I out?" Drew mumbled as he got up from the cold tiles glancing at the Jade bottle which was lying beside him. After brewing the medicine, he became so exhausted that he decided to take a nap to replenish his lost energy. However the nap ended up becoming a really long sleep. Picking up the jade bottle, he uncorked it and smiled in satisfaction when he saw the slightly purplish liquid inside. "I just have to hand this over to Loveth. I wonder what her reaction is going to be like when she learns of it's uses" he grinned, while carefully tucking the jade bottle inside his pocket. Leaving the refining room, he just happened to bump into Rosalie, clad in a school uniform. "Hm?" Rosalie's brows jumped in joy when she saw Drew. "You finally came out!" she beamed. "How long did I spend inside?" Drew inquired. "Two days. Big sis become worried and wanted to check up on you, however Mother forbade her from doing so. She was afraid that we would interfere with what you w
"Interesting. Did the young man really say that?" "Indeed father. And the most surprising fact is that he's so young. If I am not mistaken, he isn't past his mid twenties.. do you think he's the main deal or he was merely shooting off his mouth?" Currently inside a large study room, Old Man Benson and his Daughter; Loveth, sat together, occupying the only sofa in the study. Loveth had just finished recounting her meeting with Drew to her father. She wanted to seek his guidance on the matter. "What do you think?" Old Man Benson smiled as he asked his daughter of her opinion. "I really don't know whether I should believe him or not. After all from his words, he was hinting that he was going to brew the 'amazing product' " "But he's just too young. There's no way he can match up to Medicine Priest Harland's expertise which has been honed through many years of experience.." "But some how, my instincts keeps telling me to trust him" she sighed. "So that means this is a conflict be
After breakfast with the Mick Family, Drew headed towards the Medicine Refinement room he had used the previous day to brew the antidote for Mr. Mick's Sun Curse. When he arrived there, he was met with the sight of packaged boxes neatly arranged. These were the ingredients that he had requested from Loveth the previous day. "Let's get to work" he cracked his knuckles as he took in a deep breath before he began opening the packaged boxes. . . When Boss Jay exited his mansion, he was met with a shocking sight. Lying around helplessly were his underlings And the most scary part was that they were all bleeding from the severe injuries they had on their body. The whole premises of the mansion plunged into silence. The only thing that could be sensed in the air was the strong iron smell of blood as well as deep resentment. "So you are the boss of this place?" a baritone voice broke the silence at that moment, causing Boss Jay to tilt his head towards the direction from where t
Yawning heavily, Drew got up from the bed he had used to pass the night. Rubbing the dirt off the corners of his eye, he sighed deeply. He could still feel that his depleted martial energy had not yet been fully replenished. Looks like the Artic Soothing solution had taken much from him than he had anticipated. "I wonder if the packages have arrived?" he mumbled as he made his way towards the bathroom to freshen up... Old Man Benson was clad in tracksuit as he watered the vegetable plants in his garden at a steady pace. If an outsider came, they would be shocked to discover that this seemingly ordinary man was once one of the top big shots in North Heights, as well as the father of two of the most influential individuals in the city. Five minutes passed when he sudden sighed as he stopped what he was doing. "I wonder how long you are going to keep standing there eh?" he slowly said. "Heh. Is it a crime to watch my dear father as he goes about his business?" a pearl of laughte
Although this might sound hypocritical but I am really sorry for not updating for weeks. I was too busy with my other new book The Vampire System that I neglected this one and I am truly sorry for that. Anyways, I am here to announce I am back in business and hope to update daily. As an apology, I will be dropping two free chapters. Yes! You won't need to use coins to unlock the two chapters. I hope you all forgive me for my inconsistency. You don't deserve it. The same applies to my other Book The Centillionaire Heir.. Oh, and don't forget to check out my other Book The Vampire System.. And don't take the name to heart, it mostly has the theme of an urban fantasy with Hero like People known as Sentries.. just give it a read.. you won't regret it. Plus it has daily updates as well!
"How was it?" Currently the whole Mick family were gathered around Mr Caleb lying on a white bed in his room, with eager expressions. "What are you saying Rosalie? your father just drank the medicine. There's no way he would suddenly recover, right?" Although it sounded like a chastisement, Mrs. Mick was actually asking of Drew's opinion. "Sigh. The Sun Curse is a deadly ailment" Drew who was standing a few feets away, holding an empty bowl, sighed. "Although the antidote I brewed was a powerful one, Mr. Mick won't recover instantly. He still needs two days worth of rest before he can return back to normal. " "I'd advise that you give him his space during those two days. Not only that, ensure to change his diet.. he shouldn't eat meat or anything that was cooked or stir fried" he advised. "But my dad hates vegetables" Tom frowned with worry. "Well, then he has to learn how to enjoy eating them. Although he can substitute vegetables with fruits " Drew replied. "Thank you ver
