Jason didn't put ears to Ethan's words. His eyes were on the floor, and he asked with a squeezed fist. “Are you the one that did this to my friend? What I want is yes or no”Everybody's face darkened seeing Jason dare address the eldest master of the Malachi family without respect. John wanted to step forward, but Ethan raised his hand. “Yes, I am the one.. It seems you are avoiding the question I asked you earlier”Jason finally raised his head to look at Ethan. “I won't be a disciple to a dead man”Jason immediately launched forward to Ethan. His movements were fast, but Ethan could see them slowly.Ethan took his fighting stance. “I see you have made your choice, now I will show you what a three-star warrior fighter can do”Ethan faced Jason with seriousness, but his eyes widened, seeing Jason was already standing close to him; how could this be possible? How could the kid's movements suddenly increase?Before Ethan could comprehend the motion, Jason sent a powerful kick to hi
At that moment, everyone's legs vibrated.The room was dead silent. Everyone was paralyzed with fear as they looked at Ethan Malachi lying motionless on the ground.Something that seemed impossible is happening right before their eyes.They never for once, thought their whitest dream to see such a thing, yet there it was happening in front of them, Ethan Malachi defeated by Jason.A mere university student had accomplished the unthinkable, and the manner in which he did it was something else; it was so easy, like a rat trying to go head-to-head with a lion. Ethan Malachi was a three-star warrior fighter, ranked 99th in the perennial hundred, a group of the most formidable fighters. Yet, Jason, still in school and not even in the perennial hundred, had defeated him so easily. Master Malachi and the others couldn't fathom what had just happened. John stood frozen in his position, his mind racing, unable to process the sight before him. Jason, the unassuming student, had brought Etha
Jason, at that moment, remembered he saw some cars parked inside the Malachi residence.Without thinking twice, he knew he would have to go get one of those cars and used it to drive Derek to the hospital.Immediately he faced Derek.“Derek, hold on, I'm coming. I want to go get a car to get you to the hospital. Please hold on.”Jason's voice was filled with assurance; he doesn't want Derek to feel like he's going to die if he doesn't get to the hospital quickly.However, Derek held Jason's hands before he could stand up.“I'm scared. Please don't go. I'm scared. What if they come back for me, and you're not here?”Jason couldn't help but force a smile.“Don't worry about that, I'm sure they wouldn't dare come back again.”He held Derek so tightly.“Hold on, I need to get you to the hospital now; please hold on while I go get a car.”Derek managed to nod; however, he was weak, and he could feel his strength fading away.Immediately, Jason ran towards the house; he stumbled through the
The lady was shocked to hear Jason's words; she was just being nice to him earlier, because that was the right thing to do. But she couldn't help but frown when she saw Jason's card; with just a single glance, she could tell it was just a regular student card from the bank. She knew it wouldn't be able to process a one million dollar transfer; such an account has a limit, and she knows he can't use up to 50 thousand dollars in the account if he has up to that amount, yet the fool wants to take her for a ride. With a mocking tone, she said. “You think I don't know what you're planning, but let me remind you, everybody isn't as dumb as you are. If you think you can use a student account to play a quick one on us, so your friends can be attended to, it's not going to work.” Jason couldn't believe his eyes, and at the same time he wasn't surprised by the nurse's attitude. Things like this have been happening to him; it's not new. However, he doesn't have time to waste; Derek is going to
Everyone was still gazing around trying to see who that person was when Jason stepped up to the chief, his voice filled with frustration and anger.“What caused this delay?” he demanded. The lady standing nearby looked shocked and taken aback, her entire body vibrating. She wasn't expecting to see such a thing—a mire student, someone she had looked down upon.“So he knew the boss.”She quietly whispers to herself.Immediately the chief began to apologize.“Mr. Jason, I'm so sorry for the delay. I got the call and ran as quickly as my legs could carry me. Please forgive me.”He bow his head 90 degrees.but Jason wasn't interested in excuses. He quickly moved to Derek with a sense of urgency. “Derek, hold on, you will be fine. Please be strong.”He couldn't still feel Derek breathing, but it was growing weaker every minute.“Lead the way.”Immediately, the boss ordered the nurse to move Derek into the VIP room to get quality treatments.“Get moving.”immediately the nurse's move into
Jason couldn't believe he had lost Derek; his eye was heavy as the realization hit him. The cold, sterile air of the hospital room seemed to close in around him, suffocating him with its emptiness. He didn't know what to do. At that moment, his eyes were teary, but tears refused to come down his cheeks. he squeezed his fists, and his jaw tightened.“That damn nurse, it was her; if she had attended to Derek when we arrived, he would have been saved. But she neglected us, and Derek lost a lot of blood in the process.”At that moment, one could see Jason's veins popping out of his hands and head.“I'm not going to forgive her; she must pay.”The chief at that moment couldn't believe his ears; his entire body vibrated, though Jason was murmuring to himself, but he could still hear him loud and clear without being told he knew they were in a big mess.Jason turned in the direction heading to the E.R. unit.When the door creaked open and a man dressed in an immaculate white suit entered t
Liam began the process, his hands glowing with an ethereal light that quickly filled the entire room. The atmosphere crackled with energy, the air thick with an otherworldly presence.Jason at that moment felt his life force being drawn out of him, rapidly flowing into Derek's lifeless body.The pain was intense, like his very soul was being ripped apart, but he held on, his eyes fixed on Derek; he doesn't want to lose him, and if this is what it would take to bring him back, he will do it over again without thinking twice.As the transfer continued, Jason's strength ebbed away.At that moment, His vision blurred, and his body felt like it was on the brink of collapse; he managed to hold on.Jason could hear Liam's voice, but it was low.“Hold on, master; it's almost completed. Please hold on.”Jason's jaw tightened, his eyes became white; it was as if he didn't have any more life energy in him again.At that moment his eyes started closing, his heart filled with disappointment, knowi
Jason was pacing back and forth in the small, dimly lit room, his face was filled with a mixture of confusion and frustration. He couldn't believe what he had just learned. Derek, of all people, had somehow become one of his disciples. How is that even possible? He wasn't expecting to see any of this, but it just happened. It wasn't that Jason disliked Derek, but the suddenness of it all was overwhelming. He knows Derek hasn't fully recovered just yet; he just came back and now this.With a furrowed brow, he turned to Liam, who sat calmly in the corner of the room, his hands resting casually on his knees.Without being told, Jason could see he too was tired, he must have used all his energy earlier.Jason then faced him and said.“How did this happen, Liam?” Jason's voice was low, barely masking his unease that he doesn't want anyone to understand what he was saying. “I thought discipleship was a serious bond, not something that could just… happen, but how come this happens?”Liam
