The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 066 Ironheart
Chet Barker was the leader of the infamous Barker gang he founded. He ruled over the neighboring Jasper City. The man was a ferocious gangster who reigned without mercy or compassion.“Dwayne Mosby!” he hollered. “Just because I went away for a year, you took over Jasper City? How dare you, scoundrel!”Dwayne stepped forward and scoffed. “Chet! You’re a lousy and worthless don who exploited the people of Jasper City for years! Then suddenly, you abandoned the city and disappeared, leaving it open to rebellions and incursions! The citizens begged me to provide them protection in your absence. And now you come here threatening me? Do you have a death wish?”“Lies!” Chet spat. “You’re making up lies to justify usurping my territory! You’ll die for it!”Dwayne waved a dismissive hand. “In the past, you came to my turf challenging me a dozen times and returned defeated and humiliated. Do you have no shame?”“This time, I will return with your severed head!” the gangster declared in fury.D
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 067 Fake Martial Artist
Chet looked like he had seen a ghost. He withdrew his fist and jumped back a few yards. The man’s eyes darted from Tyler to his own hand in confusion. Did the young man casually stop his powerful ironheart attack? It didn’t even appear he was hurt or budged from his position.Chet had reinforced his fist and intended to land an attack on Dwayne’s chest, crushing his lungs and heart in the process. It would have led to instant death and a triumphant victory for him. However, Tyler’s interference foiled his plan.Did the technique not work last time? Yes, that was more likely.“Who the fuck are you, kid?” Chet demanded. “Are you suicidal or what? Do you want to die for a bastard like Dwayne?”“I plan to live a long life, actually,” Tyler replied calmly.“You got lucky, kid,” the gangster went on. “I was too distracted, and it resulted in the failure of my technique. I am giving you a last chance to run away. If you come in my way again, your death is inevitable!”Tyler took off his coat
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 068 Hidden Villain
Dwayne Mosby stepped forward and applauded Tyler. “What a marvelous display of your strength, sir! I feel so privileged to see you in action!”Even Malcolm was flabbergasted. “I was already aware of your superhuman abilities, Mr. Grant. But the way you handled Chet and his arrogance was truly spectacular. Criminals like him need to be put down before they harm lawful citizens. It was noble of you to give him a painless death.”While Tyler deserved credit for humbling Chet Barker’s fake martial arts, he had no intention of claiming responsibility for his demise.“Actually, I did not attempt to kill Chet. He died under the influence of an outside force.”The Prince of Petra exchanged confused glances with Dwayne. “What do you mean? Are you saying somebody else killed him?”Tyler eyed the villain’s corpse with intrigue and nodded. “Chet Barker was a fake. He was indeed trained in the physical aspects of martial arts but had no mystical power to speak of. His Ironheart technique didn’t be
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 069 The Fabled Monk
Tyler was taken aback by Derek's abrupt submission to him. "Train you? Take you under my wing? I don't see how the Captain of the mighty Indigo Order could learn anything from an ex-convict?"The Indigo Captain lowered his eyes as he recalled he had tried to humiliate Tyler with similar words. "I have fought in brutal wars and survived hundreds of deathly battles. However, never have I come across someone as gifted in martial arts as you are. I recognize you as truly strong, Mr. Grant. On the other hand, I found myself grossly incompetent to protect the Prince when faced with the lunatic Chet Barker. It brought shame to me and my order. Acknowledging my weaknesses, I submit myself to your tutelage. I want to become stronger to be worthy of being the Prince's royal guard again. Please accept me as a student!""But-"Malcolm smiled warmly and spoke up. "Mr. Grant… If you are worried about my safety, that is unnecessary. I will take up residence with Michelle in the Crest Tier of Sterling
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 070 Party Is Over
Tyler briskly walked down the hotel corridor as if he had tunnel vision. His mind was preoccupied with what Hugh Grant told him. His mother could miraculously walk again? How was that possible?Tyler had ascertained through Chiron's Eye that Ruth's condition wasn't easily reversible. Even the most advanced surgery in the world couldn't fix her legs. Something only of the power scale of a chakra needle could heal her.Natalie, who had been running away from Tyler, noticed him approaching from behind."I'm not talking to you!" she declared innocently, pouting like a little girl. "That was a cheap prank! Don't come near me, or I'll scream!"However, Tyler didn't even notice the young woman on his path. He brushed past her and headed towards the exit.Natalie was both embarrassed and intrigued by his behavior. What happened to him suddenly? He was in a happy, flirtatious mood a minute back.Natalie caught up to Tyler near the main gate. It was already past dawn, and the morning sun cast a
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 071 Careless With Magic
"Enough of digging into her personal life, Mom," Tyler interrupted his mother. He was apprehensive; if his parents realized Natalie was the daughter of the wealthiest man in the city, they would swoon. It would be impossible for him to explain his acquaintance with a local celebrity."Fine… Fine…" Ruth murmured, eyeing her son petulantly. "Mom, can you tell me what happened last night? Did anything unexpected occur that can explain your miraculous recovery?"Ruth shrugged and held up her fingers. "The only thing strange last night was Tracy's visit."The woman pointed at the ring on her finger. "She insisted I wear this. It's supposed to be some alternative healing ornament you got for me.""That's it? Nothing else out of the ordinary happened?"Ruth fiddled with the ring and sported a serious expression. "I agreed to wear it without thinking since I didn't want to upset you. Do you think the ring healed me? Where did you get the stone?"Hugh's tone shifted towards suspicion. "Yeah,
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 072 New Journey
Yara tucked Tracy into her bed and smoothened her blanket. "You need to rest."Tracy was still in tears, trying to make her legs move. However, it was all in vain."Why did this happen to me, Miss Mathews?" she wailed. "I was running in the park when suddenly my legs gave way. If Torque hadn't found me, I don't know what would have happened.""Don't worry. I think your legs are paralyzed because of a combination of exhaustion and anemia. It happens to us girls all the time, especially during early adulthood."Tracy looked up expectantly. "Really? Did something like this happen to you at my age?""Yes, of course!" Yara lied. "And my legs recovered after a few days. So, it would be best to stop worrying, finish your meals and rest. That's all the treatment you need."Her words reassured the girl, and she rested on her pillow and closed her eyes.Shortly after, Tyler came upstairs. He had spent the last thirty minutes convincing his parents that his sister's condition was temporary.The
The Gilded Man With A Thousand Lives 073 I Owe You One
Tyler returned from Prince’s Cove after recharging his mystical energy with Yara’s help. This time, they stayed in the aquifer’s waters for a longer period.Yara had accompanied him to the pond, and they had repeated the same ritual. No daylight illuminated their skins, but they could naturally feel each other underwater. However, the duo were now acquainted with each other’s naked bodies. There was no looming awkwardness or shame.To an outsider, their relationship would appear perverted and sexual. For Tyler, their bond was immersed in spirituality. Even though Yara was a very attractive woman, he harbored no untoward intentions for her.On the other hand, Tyler perceived that the beauty enjoyed their unclothed and intimate time underwater. Yara was a virgin and had never progressed beyond the dating stage with guys. He felt guilty for using up most of her daily hours.Was the young woman expecting something more from Tyler? Should he reward her with a more physical relationship?“Be
