***** Everybody's hearts trembled after hearing Rex Magnus' question.“I'm sorry sir, I’m really very sorry for keeping you waiting, please let me drop you home.” Rose's father immediately apologized and Rex Magnus released a sigh, looking irritated, then he nodded his head.Just as Rex Magnus and the middle-aged man were about to exit, Rose's tiny voice sounded.“Thank you very much for saving my grandpa, big brother.”Hearing her, Rex Magnus smiled gently and looked back at the little girl before nodding his head to her.“Do make sure to take care of your grandpa well in the future and also remember to never stop being a good girl, okay?”“Yes, big brother. Thank you very much.”Rex Magnus nodded again before eventually following the little girl's father out of the ward and the place descended into a dead silence.It was only five minutes later when he was sure that Rex Magnus must have gone pretty far that the rudest brother suddenly spat angrily.“What an arrogant
***** As the furious roar echoed from within, Rex Magnus couldn’t help but smile wryly, instantly recognizing the owner’s identity. ‘I wonder why mother-in-law always acts like she's fighting even when she was only asking casual questions.’ Shaking his head helplessly, the door was yanked open, and he instantly took two steps back as if sensing that what was about to occur wouldn't be favorable. “Yes, who are you and who’re you searching for?” Rex Magnus' brow instantly furrowed and he became confused when he saw the look given to him by his mother-in-law. It was as if she doesn’t know nor have any recollection of him. ‘Did she knock her head against something and lost her memory in the process?’ Rex Magnus abruptly thought with concern written all over his face. “Mother, it's me, Rex Magnus.” “Rex Magnus? Who's that?” Sally acted like she really has no idea of who Rex Magnus is, scaring Rex Magnus to death. “Mo… mother, it’s… it's me, Rex… Rex Magnus, your… your daughter's
*****“was this what you wanted or it was forced on you?”Pleadingly, Rex Magnus implored his wife, but what he got in return was an emotionless and expressionless look from her.When Sally saw this, although she doesn’t make a sound, her face instantly became filled with excitement and jubilation.‘My brainwashing has finally worked!!’….“Was this forced on you or was it what you wanted?” Rex Magnus’ asked again with a voice filled with desperation, but it caused nothing to Fiona other than irritation.Still emotionlessly, she unhurriedly responded coldly.“So… what if I was forced or it was my desire, hun? Apart from disgracing, embarrassing, and jinxing me, what other thing could you do about it?”Rex Magnus' heart instantly turned into a fine powder by this. It was as if the weight of the entire world was suddenly placed on his chest which caused him to start feeling unexplainable pain in his heart.Slowly, he began to remember all the sacrifices he had been making si
***** Rex Magnus couldn’t resist smiling brightly despite the intense pain he was experiencing as he listened to his wife tirelessly fighting for him during the heated argument between her and her mother. 'How could I have been wrongfully accused and think she doesn’t want me anymore?'He shakes his head gently before smiling even brighter, clearly unable to hide the excitement he is feeling. At this moment, Rex Magnus could be seen seated on the edge of a bed inside a little room. This has been his bedroom since he married Fiona and moved into her house. Although the two had been married for over three years, they hadn’t shared a bed before, let alone consummated their marriage. Poor Rex Magnus; he had only been watching his wife's otherworldly beauty every day for the past over three years ago, unable to do a thing. This was the room personally handpicked by his mother-in-law, and as you may have already thought, it was the worst room inside the villa. Although it was
***** Not long ago, Rose's father who had driven Rex Magnus home returned to the hospital and as soon as he laid eyes on his awakened father, he became flooded with a myriad of emotions and he instantly ran to his father's side with tears in his eyes. However, to his surprise, his father responded with a loud and angry outburst.Indeed, while the middle-aged man remained at Rex Magnus' residence, his daughter had recounted everything that occurred after her grandpa lost consciousness without altering a single word.……At this moment, inside the hospital ward.As if they were sinners receiving judgments, the three brothers could be seen standing with their heads lowered and their hands folded before them, and on the bed at their front was an old man who no longer in any way resembled someone who had just gone through a death door seated with an aggressive look on his face Beside the old man sat his precious granddaughter who could be seen currently gazing at her father and
***** Hearing their father & grandfather's roar and seeing how he was acting, the four inside the ward became flabbergasted. But thinking of the sort of life he had lived previously since they could and couldn’t remember, they became emotional.Thankfully, the ward provided for them was the best in the hospital, so it was naturally soundproofed which made them not to have disturbed anybody with their roars and movements since the beginning.After laughing, screaming, tearing up, and jumping for a while, the old man eventually stopped.Breathing at the top of his lungs, he turned to glance at his eldest son.“First thing tomorrow morning, including all the extended family members and immediate family members, we are going to my savior’s house to thank and appreciate him.”The eldest son who heard this instantly trembled.‘Fa… father, ple… please don’t… don’t do that.”“WHAT!!!”The old man's eyes instantly widen exaggeratedly.“You brat, what do you mean by saying I shoul
***** As usual, Rex Magnus rose early the following day at 4:00 am to do all the household tasks and cook breakfast for his father-in-law who rarely left his room, his wife who was headed to work, and his mother-in-law before she left to visit her friends.Poor Rex Magnus. Although the villa wasn’t huge, it wasn’t a place a single person should be cleaning, and there had been three professional cleaners that comes to clean it every few days and do the laundry then, it had stopped exactly the day he moved in.Apart from initially being good at cooking, Rex Magnus hadn’t been used to the tasks at first.That’s right. Rex Magnus was so good at cooking that if he claims himself to be a king at it, only a few people would dare claim themselves as the emperor. It was also because of his extraordinary talent for cooking that made his mother-in-law order him to go help out prepare the old matriarch's Birthday Feast the previous day.But that was that. when it comes to house chores,
*****“Hun?”Rex Magnus couldn’t help but become stomped when he heard all the curses and insults that just came out of his mother-in-law's mouth and saw her redden eyes.Poor him, although he doesn’t register everything, his mother-in-law doesn’t seem to be done with him yet.“You bastard, you are dead today!! You're just so dead already! How dare a useless thing worst than a dog’s shit like you speak to me anyhow? I must do everything in my capacity to convince my daughter to divorce you bastard who might go so far as to beat me up in the future!”Rex Magnus' eyes instantly widen when he heard this, then he became helpless.Although he doesn’t say what she accused him of saying, Rex Magnus doesn’t want to start his day badly today, so he decided to just apologize once and for all.He breathed in deeply with a resigned look on his face.“Mother, I’m sorry, okay? I shouldn’t have said you were a liar or blind.”Poor Rex Magnus. With him admitting to that, his day wouldn’t star
**** Potter City On a somewhat crowded street in a hot summer's afternoon, a young man in his late teens could be seen pedaling a bike as quickly as his legs would allow him.Looking at this young man, his body was already entirely drenched in sweat, and his attractive face, which was also completely covered in sweat beads was etched with fatigue.But despite this, the young man appeared unconcerned as the hastiness in his eyes was much more intense.He continued to cycle the bike hysterically as if his life depended on it, dodging both objects and creatures.The young man's eyes finally shone with intense light after a prolonged period of unceasing cycling, as if he had suddenly seen light at the end of a totally dark tunnel.The young man immediately increased his pedaling speed and applied more energy to his legs when he abruptly heard the unexpectedly loud vroom of an approaching car.The young man's delight first gave way to a bewildered and perplexed expression since he was ful
**** According to the diary left for Rex Magnus by May, the first time she betrayed him, she didn’t know that Rex Magnus was being planned to kill.What she was told was that they were trying to strip him of his power, and although it was also wrong, she had no choice because of her selfish reason, but she told Ronald about it, and it was Ronald who promised to protect their masters, so it wasn’t a betrayal.The reason why they were able to control her was because, when she was 19, she was drugged and raped by Rex Magnus' half-brother, and because everybody knew her feelings for Rex Magnus, she was threatened that they would report the case to Rex Magnus if she doesn’t do what they wanted.As for the second time, she had initially thought of refusing until she knew the name of the poison, so she made up her mind to apply it to Rex Magnus and tell him the entire truth after, but knowing that she wouldn't be able to face him again after the whole truth is out,
****The moment this was said, the place became silent and a heavy atmosphere descended.Just after a moment, nervous voices began to stutter.“You… you can’t do this… how… how dare you speak about honor when the master was still poisoned.”“If… if you're certain you want to give master a respectful death, why don’t you give him an antidote first?”They continued roaring and stuttering with fear while fidgeting and trying to break the enchanted chains used to restrain them, but Rex Magnus' brother acted like he doesn’t hear.Looking at everybody’s faces blankly for a while, he suddenly swiped out a knife from his pocket, then he turned around and walked unhurriedly to Rex Magnus.“This was all your fault,” he suddenly muttered to Rex Magnus that only he would hear.“You shouldn’t have made everybody feel scared, and more should you have made all those old fogeys feel like they were in control and not you.”He sighed, looking like a nice p
****“What… what happened to grandma?”Presently, Fiona has finally returned to her senses, but her head is currently ringing loudly while one of her palms is holding her mouth tightly with shock.She couldn’t believe what she was seeing at all.Her voice was what finally woke several people up from their stupor state, then instantly, Fiona's father, David jumped to his feet and rushed forward with two crimson red eyes, pointing his hand furiously and ferociously at Ethan.“How could you… how could you do this? Have you forgotten all the love, affection, and favoritism shown to you by Mother?”His voice was shaking so much that everybody could tell he was hiding a wave of indescribable anger and pain in him.As for Ethan who heard him, he doesn’t look remorseful nor furious, rather, he smiled coldly before laughing evilly and stepping on the body still oozing out blood.“She… huh?”He questioned playfully. “How could you say this old bitc
****“Dear brother, it’s been a while.”The young man suddenly smiled brightly after reaching Rex Magnus, but unfortunately, Rex Magnus couldn’t do a thing.Despite this, the look in his eyes already showed everything in his mind which only made the young man chuckle brightly.“Hahaha, yes, you have thought right, my dear brother. It was your sweet and precious May that poisoned you.”The moment Rex Magnus heard this, despite the great effort it took, he forced his eyes to gaze at May pleadingly, as if begging her to say it was a lie, but the moment he saw the look on her face, his eyes redden, and he would have been screaming ‘why’ right now if he was still at the control of his body.Although he already knew the truth, he still doesn’t want to believe it at all, so Rex Magnus continued gazing pleadingly at May despite his eyes having turned crimson red.Seeing this, the young man before Rex Magnus looked even greater.Smiling brightly, he co
**** “Hahaha, the ex-divine general does make jest of me,” the young man abruptly chuckled. “Who am I, how dare I claim myself to be the cousin of a like of you?” “Hehehe,” Rex Magnus also chuckled in return before finally glancing at all the faces his eyes could see, and the more he sees, the heavier his heart became and the more emotional he became. Even though he already learned that most of the people in the group had betrayed him, he still wasn’t able to handle the deep sadness and broken-heartedness within him. As for the people his gazes stayed longer upon, they knew that Rex Magnus has recognized them, but only a few of them has embarrassed expressions on their faces, as for the rest, their eyes were filled with mockery. After a while, Rex Magnus abruptly chuckled again. “I never knew why I was this blind in the past that I didn’t realize I was being hated upon by these many people.” “Hun?” Everyone abruptly looked flushed before
****Presently, Rex Magnus could be seen once again standing before his army with a stoic expression on his face.They were where they'd planned to meet after the success of the previous operation.“Are you all ready for the showdown?”He asked his army gently.“Yes, sir, we are all very ready, sir.” He was responded to by organized voices which made the ground around them tremble intensely.Without a change in expression, Rex Magnus looked at them more for a few minutes, the powerful and leadership aura still circulating him with full force, he nodded his head.“Okay then. We shall strictly follow the plan and tactics already made,” he uttered seriously this time around. “There is zero chance for a mistake, okay?”“Yes, sir.”With that, Rex Magnus and his men proceeded outside the city's gate, making everywhere they pass tremble.It was as if they’d turned into powerful beasts with the oppressive atmosphere spreading around them and
**** “Very soon, we shall split ourselves into groups, with each group under a general,” Rex Magnus who still doesn’t know the aura around him continued. “Now that we have the upper-hand of being in the dark while our enemies are in the bright space, we should make use of this well.” Like so, Rex Magnus continued speaking and giving orders until finally, everybody set out. All the soldiers were split equally under a general, leaving Rex Magnus and May alone. He watched calmly as the last group left, then he turned to May. “Our lives are now in your hands, please do monitor them and inform us of any changes.” “Hun?” May's eyes abruptly widen at this, then she trembled slightly. “Ma… master, this… this isn’t right, right?” It is now time for Rex Magnus to be stomped. He gazed strangely at May for a while before shaking his head slightly. “You are definitely acting strange. This isn’t the first time you would be doing th
**** “Team 32, any traces of that bastard?” “None as of yet, sir?” “Then continue watching and searching closely.” “Yes, sir.” “Oh, one more thing, never for any reason allow your group to be scattered, that bastard isn't something that should be taken lightly, okay?” “Yes, sir.” “Great.” (Beep.) …… “Hello sir, Team 54 is on the line.” “Team 54, any traces of that bastard?” “None, sir. According to all the coverages we’ve seen, he left his house this morning and…” ….. “Team 82, any traces of that bastard?” “None as of now, sir.” “Continue searching then. Make sure to search every inch of the city, okay?” “Yes, sir.” …… Presently, the entire Chase city is so quiet that one would think it had turned into an empty street if not for the thousands of armies that could be seen almost every minute. Apart from this, several aircraft could be seen flying to and fro in the sky, as if searching
