Edward spurred his car as fast as lightning through a somewhat congested highway. Many times he accidentally crashes into other vehicles causing chaos and traffic jams. However, the youth did not care.Since earlier, he cursed the lies that Elizabeth had been hiding all this time. "I didn't expect that I was only Anthony's adopted son! No wonder he always treats me like a slave!" Edward hit the steering wheel to vent his anger. Edward's phone hasn't stopped ringing since earlier. However, he didn't want to pick up the call because he knew who had called him.Edward refused to hear any explanations from Elizabeth. He hated it and was disappointed. Hatred and anger seethed within him when he remembered the conversation that woman and Anthony had had in the room earlier."I know he's not my biological son, but it's still my responsibility to protect him from bad people!"The world seemed to collapse for Edward. The man he had considered his birth father was just a stepfather."Now I k
Edward was stunned on the balcony chair of Riko's apartment. He was still thinking about the incident that almost took his life earlier. If there wasn't that mystery person, maybe he would be dead.Riko came carrying a cup of warm milk. He put it on the table beside Edward."What are you thinking about?" Riko sat beside Edward.Edward glanced at Riko briefly, then looked ahead. "I was thinking about the car accident.""Honestly, I can't believe you had an accident because you weren't hurt. Not even a scent of smoke remained on your clothes.""You accuse me of lying?" Edward said curtly."I didn't mean that, but….""Never mind. Let's not talk about it anymore. My head feels like it's exploding!"Riko chooses to remain silent before Edward rages.A moment of silence."What exactly are you thinking? I'm sure you're not thinking about the car crash."Edward snorted softly, leaned back in the chair, and massaged his temples. "During an accident, I was saved by a mysterious person. I suspec
"Don't be so innocent, Morwen! You are the one who wants Riko more than anyone! You and your ambition have blinded your conscience.""I want Riko, but I can't possibly hurt my child!""Bullshit! You knew the risks of bringing Riko into our world, but you did it anyway! You're a terrible father, Morwen!" Arthur swore."Never mind! We have to find Riko!" Morwen grew white wings on his back and then went outside.Arthur was annoyed, then followed Morwen.The day was getting bright because it was already morning.Arthur held Morwen's hand. "Don't act rashly! Don't transform in front of people!""Tsk!" Morwen immediately transformed into Jorah and left. So did Arthur."Where did you find Riko's blood?" Morwen and Arthur hurried along the sidewalk."Near the hotel, not far from my apartment!"Morwen activated his telepathy but couldn't. "Shit! I can't trace Riko's whereabouts through my mind at all!" Morwen cursed indignantly."Me too!""The culprit is definitely not human!""It must be Daw
Riko woke up from fainting.Dark.Riko has a little trouble breathing."Argh …." Riko grimaced in pain." Where am I?' Riko couldn't see anything. He tried to thrash around, but his feet and hands were tied. His mouth was also gagged with a cloth, so he couldn't scream for help.'Who kidnapped me?' Riko muttered to himself, panicking. He tried to remove the cloth gagging his mouth with incredible difficulty."H-help…" Riko's voice stuttered. He was coughing because his throat hurt and felt hot.'What's wrong with my throat?'"H-help…." Riko returns to ask for help once again. However, no one answered.Riko tries to recall the events when she was kidnapped. At that time, one creature bit his neck until he fainted.'What is Dawney?' Riko guessed in his heart. He wasn't sure because Dawney and the creature stranger had different forms. The creature hissed like a snake. Riko could still feel his neck hurting when the two fangs pierced his skin.'Could it be that I am now in the snake demon
The next morning.Captain Calvin smoothed the collar of his uniform in front of the mirror. His face looked tense. His forehead creased deeply, showing an expression that held a lot of anxiety."I'll come with you."Morwen gasped in surprise, then turned to the Window. "Morwen?"Morwen sat at Captain Calvin's bedroom window."No. I'll go alone!" Captain Calvin said firmly. He didn't want Morwen to mess up the plans he had laid out since the night."I won't make a fuss.""That's impossible. You can't control yourself when it comes to Riko. I already have a plan, so you just have to wait for information from me. If you cause trouble and Mr. Anthony finds out, you could be in trouble.""I can erase everyone's memories.""But not with Edward." Captain Calvin sneered sternly.Morwen fell silent, unable to refute. Calvin is right. Edward did not work with his strength. "That's my reason for investigating that kid.""Research what?""I have to know who he really is.""I won't let you do that
Edward snorted in annoyance. The young man had sat up toward Captain Calvin more than an hour ago."Now explain! When was the last time you were with Riko?" Captain Calvin interrogated Edward. He gave the young man a sharp look."I don't know! How many times do I have to say it for you to believe me?!" Edward protested irritably."Don't lie, Edward! I know that a few days ago you visited Riko's house! Arthur said it! So, you can't be evasive anymore!"'Damn it! How dare that old man tell it to Captain Calvin!' Edward cursed inwardly."Why are you keeping quiet, huh?! Answer me quickly! If you're still evasive, I swear I'll put you in jail right now!" Captain Calvin threatened."Just do it!" Edward crossed his arms with a cocky face.Captain Calvin clenched his fists tightly due to his raging anger, but he tried to restrain himself as he did not want to prolong the argument. He immediately called Valerie and had his daughter take Edward to prison.Valerie handcuffed both of Edward's ha
"Before you kill me, tell me who you are? What do you want from me?" Elizabeth was about to stab Riko, but Riko's sudden words made her stop."I want the God's Cube!""I don't know where it is now. But why do you want it so badly? What is the greatness of the God's Cube? Why is it so special to you?""So you know that thing?! How dare you deceive me! Tell me where you hid the God's Cube?!""I do know that thing, but I don't know where it is right now. The God's Cube just disappeared." Riko explained."Don't lie to me!" Elizabeth snapped angrily."Go ahead and kill me if you don't believe me."Elizabeth gripped the hilt of her dagger tightly to contain her near explosive rage. She could not possibly kill Riko because the young man was the only key to unlocking the God's Cube."Why are you doing nothing? Do it." Riko said casually.Elizabeth did not move. She was annoyed that Riko had challenged her. It seemed that the young man already knew the secret behind the power of the God's Cube
Captain Calvin drove his car home. He occasionally yawned because he couldn't stand the sleepiness.It was already dawn.The car was traveling on a quiet residential street. There were not many cars passing by or people passing by.Throughout the journey, Captain Calvin doesn't stop thinking about Riko's current fate. He was so worried about the boy. Had he eaten and drunk? Was he being mistreated by the perpetrator?Captain Calvin snorted in disappointment. He hated himself for always failing to find clues about Riko's whereabouts. Not even he could extract any information from Edward.Captain Calvin was losing his mind. However, the man would not give up so easily. He would search for the boy's whereabouts until he found him.Bruk!Captain Calvin was shocked when his car tire exploded, making it swerve until the man had trouble controlling it.Bruk!The car crashed into a power pole.Captain Calvin winced as his leg was crushed. Fortunately, there was no catastrophic impact that cou
