I just wanted to use this to let everyone know that new chapters are on the way starting tomorrow but first I wanted to get an important message across.First of all, I apologize for the inconsistencies with the uploads. I know you guys read this book not just for the story but also as your pastime and I appreciate you all for the support that I’ve been getting.I just checked the last chapter and I was left a comment addressing the lack of new chapters and how it makes the story boring and I get where you’re coming from reader. Even I get annoyed when the books I read don’t get chapters when I want them to.I just wanted to ask you guys to look at things from the author’s perspective and I hope you understand.First of all, though it takes you guys a minute to read a single chapter it takes us the author an hour minimum to write it and thirty minutes to edit so an hour to two hours for a single chapter.Double that when the author uploads two chapters daily.Now, that’s four hours gon
"So now what?" Frank asked Anthony after looking at all his friends that were unconscious and getting concerned that he was the only one still awake.“..” Anthony didn’t give a single response, annoying Frank who felt ignored.“Okay. So, about your eyes, what’s the situation with that?” Frank asked and Anthony looked at him. “Are you really a monster or are they some new type of contact that becomes like that in sunlight or something like that? What’s the secret there?”“You remember the question you asked me?” Anthony asked him and Frank look confused.“The question I asked you? The question about your eyes or what we’re going to do now?” Frank asked and Anthony grunted."That’s right and this is when you join your friends and go to sleep," Anthony said then Frank jolted with a worried look."Sleep?! What do you mean by—" Frank said in a panic but wasn't able to finish when Anthony grabbed a vital point in his neck and knocked him out cold in less than ten seconds.After that, Anthon
Tessa creased her forehead in ponder of what he was talking about“A small box with strange symbols on it? Something like that was in your room?” She asked.“Yes, it was. Tessa, try and remember if you saw something like that 'cause you must” Anthony requested, grabbing her shirt to try and get her to take what he was saying seriously.“Please take what I’m saying seriously 'cause it’s the most important thing the both of us can do right now. Try your best to remember what I’m asking” Anthony insisted and Tessa grimaced.To Anthony, this box was the center of everything happening right now. The circumstances that lead to him having it in the first place and what happened when he took it to his room were all bizarre.If he wants answers to what is going on with him then that box is the only thing in the world that can provide said answers.Tessa was watching him pant and realized that he didn’t just grab her shirt to make her take his words seriously but he was trying to keep himself s
While they drove, Tessa had her hand firmly on the grab handle the whole time.Deep down she was scared for her safety and that’s because the fear of Anthony passing out while on the wheel was ever-present. If it was someone else then she never would have dared get into that back seat.They were halfway to the Untitled Hotel, driving on the right side of a two-lane road and a driver from the other lane speeding to drive past them when Anthony’s power came on again and he saw something.Without a single warning, he swerved to the left and cut the driver who was just about to drive past them and they almost had an accident.While that driver honked his horn and was cursing Anthony out, Tessa looked at Anthony with worry if something had happened to make him change lanes so abruptly like that. “Silver, if you can’t drive pull over and let—“ she said and wasn’t able to finish when less than two seconds after Anthony changed lanes, someone ran from an alleyway, fell on the pavement then r
"Inside the wall?" Tessa asked, getting even closer and tilting her head with a look of confusion "How is that even possible?"She was wondering how the box Anthony was talking about is inside the wall when there was no sign of that being the case.Anyone who has eyes could see that the part of the wall he's talking about doesn't have any signs to show that something is lodged inside. Unless the hole was created then the box was put inside and then someone with bricklaying experience covered it evenly to the rest of the wall with cement. That person would then have had to repaint that portion the same color as the rest of the wall and the paint dried to perfection.Unless all of that happened then there's no way what Anthony was saying makes sense.For someone to do that they would need at least a full day or two but from what Anthony has said, the box wasn't in the wall at the start of the day."Are you being serious with me right now Silver? I can't imagine you to be the type of pe
She saw the symbols Anthony had been talking about and she knew instantly that it was the exact box. The fact that it was floating made it more obvious."Woah, so that's what you were on about? What type of box is it?" Tessa asked as Anthony limped forward and grabbed the box.The moment he touched it, the box stopped floating and fell into his hands to be taken out.Anthony carried the box out of the hole he had created in the wall then he limped to the middle of the room while Tessa followed behind, wanting to see more of it."Silver, how on earth did you get something like this? It looks like one of those items you would find in voodoo shops" Tessa said as Anthony turned all sides of the box to inspect it."Someone gave it to me," Anthony said and Tessa creased her forehead."Someone? Someone like who, a witch?" She asked jokingly then looked at Anthony's face but he looked serious."Wait Silver, did a witch seriously give this to you?"Anthony shrugged "I don't know but it might a
A couple of hours later, Anthony took in a deep but calm breath then opened his eyes slowly as he sighed peacefully.The first thing he noticed is that he was facing the ceiling and the second is realizing that all the pain he had been feeling before had upped and vanished.At the same time, he wasn’t surprised by the fact, he somewhat expected it but he had no idea why it was. Where did the strong feeling that he would be relieved from all pain come from? He wondered.He brought his left hand to his field of vision which was the ceiling to stare at it.He stared at his palm and then at the back of his hand, alternating multiple times while wiggling his fingers around and cracking the bones in his fingers until finally, he clenched his fist as tight as possible.He was measuring what his current strength was and it was back to normal. At the same time, he felt like this normal strength that he had had his entire life is his weakest and he could get stronger.The reason he felt like th
Not long after they finished having their conversation, Anthony went to take a shower and clean up the dirt and dried blood on his body while Tessa waited for him by the window.She would have sat down but only the messy bed which had Anthony’s dried blood smeared on it was available and she didn’t want to sit there When Anthony was done he came out looking and smelling fresh, wearing the pair of clothes he took inside the bathroom when he returned from Gem fest with the box and he joined her to continue looking out the window.“I just realized this but what brought you here in the first place?” Anthony asked Tessa.Tessa jolted with widened eyes then answered “Oh, that’s right. I came here originally to give you this. Unfortunately, something else took precedence but I'm glad that’s over with. Anyway, here” she said, reaching into her back trouser pocket and bringing out the half access card Anthony had given her.She extended it to Anthony and he looked at it in her hand.She said
