*****“Did… did she just reject the roses?”“Oh, My God!!! She just rejected a gift given by the God-like young master which every other lady in this world would die to have!”“This is so crazy!!!”“What the hell is wrong with the first Miss?!”Everybody's voice began to sound in a hushed manner.It was as if they had never heard of a lady rejecting a guy's gift before.Right now, inside an office located on the topmost floor of the company's building, Ethan who had been watching the scenes going on downstairs with the greatest smile on his face was now looking like he couldn’t wait to butcher someone right now.Initially, he had thought Fiona would accept the bunch of roses because of the threat and tension caused by the crowd's chant. Never had he thought she would actually reject it.In no time, Ethan's breathing began to quicken, and unconsciously, he began to ooze out strong killing intent.“This stupid cousin!” He growled hatefully and suddenly pushed out with all the
*****“What’s this fool doing here?”“How could this bastard show himself at this sort of time, does he want to cause a misunderstanding between the first miss and Mister Bottoms?”“This useless fool coming at such a wrong time!”Unable to control themselves anymore, the crowd began to mutter angrily while glaring furiously at Rex Magnus.Although Rex Magnus heard them all, he wasn’t bothered at all nor does he give a single damn.Still smiling brightly at his wife, he walked around the Ferrari parked before him and walked toward her.“Hello, wife.” He greeted again while automatically ignoring Alan Bottoms as if he never knew he was there.Seeing this, a strong and thick killing intent that could cause the death and heart attack of a normal person flew out of Alan Bottoms’ body and concentrated completely on Rex Magnus.But who was Rex Magnus, the divine general that has gone through thousands of wars and had killed thousands of millions of people directly and indirectly, so
*****‘So she doesn’t hate roses?’Apart from feeling greatly relieved, what Rex Magnus was feeling right now as he gazed at his wife was great joy and pride.That’s right, he was currently feeling extremely proud of his wife for not being influenced by people or things.He still hadn’t realized that Fiona had only accepted the rose from him unconsciously and not willingly.Having returned to her senses and realizing what she had done, Fiona first went blank for almost five minutes before returning to her senses.She doesn’t need to be told at this moment that her grandmother would definitely not only be furious at her now but also at her husband.‘Why had I let my emotions take over me?’She lamented as she shut her eyes for a few seconds to calm her raging heart, and when she opened them again, they had returned to the normal cold and expressionless feeling they always portray, but Rex Magnus wasn’t moved by this at all.“I would take that as you having forgiven me.”Altho
***** “Cousin, Rex, I could see that you two are enjoying yourselves bullying my employee.” Hearing this voice, Rex Magnus wasn’t surprised at all as he already knew that Ethan had been hiding in a corner before finally stepping out. The person shocked and scared was Fiona. She instantly regretted allowing Rex Magnus to fight for her. Of cause, although she doesn’t know to what extent Ethan abhors her, she understood that he does and she also knew that their grandmother would always do everything he wants which immediately made her nervous to the core. “No… no, we weren’t bullying her?” Her voice shook slightly. “Then what were you two doing to her?” Ethan's face currently looked utterly serene, but deep inside, he was breaming with unimaginable anger. ‘How dare this beggar’s piece of trash spoil my already good mood?’ He glanced at Rex Magnus with hatred-filled eyes. Rex Magnus’s suspicion was correct: Ethan had been concealing himself behind the Resources manager from the s
*****‘Why had I let the fear of my wife and mother-in-law took over me last night?’Inside a taxi, Rex Magnus could be seen currently seated with a big frown on his face as he laments to himself.After leaving his wife's workplace earlier, Rex Magnus had rushed to the hospital in search of the Rodriguez family, but unfortunately, he was told that they’d left the previous night, and poor Rex Magnus, he instantly became filled to regret as to why he hadn't asked for their contact before leaving the previous night. He began to mourn about how had with his hands thrown such a great opportunity to please his wife away.It must be known that one of the reasons why Rex Magnus had helped the old man was because of his wife, so when Rex Magnus realized that he had only helped in vain, he became filled with grief.It was when Rex Magnus was busy lamenting that a sudden thought crossed his mind.Then without bothering to think about it, Rex Magnus immediately acted on the thought and st
*****“What! Are you searching for me?”Upon careful listening, Rex Magnus finally discerned that the voice originated from a petite speaker affixed to the edifice adjacent to the colossal gate.“Great!” An exclamation suddenly sounded from the speaker. “Now that you see, I will ask you again. Who are you and what do you seek from the Rodriguez family?”Rex Magnus immediately became further confused when he heard the laziness in the voice. ‘Am I in a different place from the one being feared by everybody?’Just as Rex Magnus finished thinking like this, he heard several footsteps approaching the gate from the inside, then he watched closely.The moment Rex Magnus saw the owners of the disorganized footsteps, his mouth twitched repeatedly.“Hey you, are you deaf? I’m asking you, what are you looking for in the Rodriguez family estate?”“Brat, don’t you know that you're on private property? Do you so much wish to lose an arm or a leg?”They began to bombard Rex Magnus with tons
*****“Sir Medicine God?”The fool-like men glanced at each other's faces, looking all lost when they heard the term used by their second master and the shock in his voice, but Cliff Rodriguez couldn’t care about that right now.“You Fools!!! How dare you make The Sir Medicine God Wait outside?”He glared ferociously at the men behind him, making them tremble in fear.“Sir… sir, we… we..”“We What? Hun! You still dare to talk back to me instead of going to open the gate, do you want me to break that mouth of yours for you?” The Rodriguez family's second brother snapped at the person who just spoke, making him instantly run anxiously to open the gate.“Sir Medicine God!!! Where have you been since morning, I’ve searched the entire city for you, but you were nowhere to be found!”Rex Magnus became confused when he saw how the person who had been all rude to him last night behave.‘Is this still the rude guy who angered me to the core last night?’Just as the gate opened, Cliff
*****“Lord Savior! Lord Savior!! How dare this old one at the point of death carry your esteemed self to my little rat house?”The moment Rex Magnus heard this, he felt a headache coming, then he thought helplessly in his mind. ‘That shameless man must have taken his behavior from his old man.’Just as Rex Magnus finished thinking like this, the owner of the voice arrived.It was the old man whom Rex Magnus saved last night. Seeing him now, his look was countless times different than the last time Rex Magnus saw him.He’s looking healthy and vibrant that one would think he wasn’t the same person as the previous night.Not only this. The grey hairs on his head had reduced slightly, although not much, and lastly, his face has turned slightly younger.Not to be rude, Rex Magnus stand up and stepped forward. “Hope sir is now okay?”“Ah! Yes… yes, lord savior. I’m more than okay, and I could swear with my life that today is the first day I’ve felt alive for years now.”“Hmm…” R
**** 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
