The bulky man launched the bat at Jason's face again, this time, Jason didn't try to evade the bat, he caught it with his right hand, the bulky guy's eyes widened, before he could comprehend the movement, Jason pulled him closer with the bat.
Jason's strength was undeniably powerful, he easily pulled the bulky guy closer to himself like a tiny ant, before the man could regain his composure, Jason sent a powerful punch to his middle.The force flew the man backwards, he landed close to Robert.Robert was dumbfounded, how can bulky man lose to Jason, what is happening here, bulky man is the number one fighter here, how can he lose so easily.Jason's footsteps were heard.“Don't tell me that is all, I really want to learn some manners”Robert face darkened.“All of you, attack this moron, mash him to the ground”The remaining six men behind Robert rushed forward to Jason, Jason remained unwavering as they approached him, for some unknown reason, he felt like they were little flies to him.BANGBANGBANGHe smashed all the henchmen to the ground, some of them were unconscious on the floor, while some were crying like babies.Natalie and Robert were stupefied, how is Jason this powerful.Jason turned to face Robert.“Since you couldn't teach me manners, it appears you don't have either, so I will have to teach you the one I know”Jason's words vibrated Robert's legs, he quickly rushed to the closest car and drove off immediately.Jason wanted to pursue him, but he decided to let him go, he still can't believe he took down six men without even getting touched by them.What is happening to him, he feels so good, and he feels like he understands some certain fighting moves.Jason's eyes moved to the ring on his right hand, it was glowing earlier, but he believes his brain was transmitting something else, after all, he was beaten up badly.However, he wonders how his body went back to shape without even taking any supplements, he even feels better than before.Ever since he thought this ring was glowing, everything about him was changing.This ring is the only thing he has of his family, after he was abandoned by them.Jason was thinking about the ring when Natalie tapped him from behind.“Jason, I apologize for what Jade did to you. I know you are a good person”Jason was utterly confused by Natalie's new behavior towards him.“What do you want Natalie, why the sudden attitude”Natalie takes a deep breath.“How about I buy you dinner to apologize for Jade's wrong behavior, then I will tell you why”Jason thought about it for a while before he nodded agreeing to her words, she defended him a while ago, perhaps she had changed.“Okay, but I don't have any money with me, I hope you don't mind”“Bills on me”Natalie responded quickly, she brought her phone out and texted the first person on her chat.“Mission successful”She kept her phone back, then a cab arrived some minutes later.They arrived at the restaurant, it was one of the biggest restaurants around, Fab restaurant, it's owned by the Landon family, Mr. Landon is one of the top men in the society.Jason expected nothing less from Natalie, she likes high standard places, although her family is wealthy, but they can't be compared to Jade's family, that is why she follows Jade around.They picked their table and sat down quietly.Natalie lifted the menu on the table, and a waitress approached her immediately.“Ma, what would you like to order, our special dishes are one of the best in Ocean Berry”Jason wasn't putting ears to the waitress' words, his eyes were moving around the room, there was nobody here, he expected this place to boom with people, perhaps they are lucky to have this space to themselves.“Jason, what do you like”Natalie smiled at him, Jason picked up the menu, and dropped it back.“Whatever you like, I mean you are the one paying. I don't forbid any food”Jason stares at Natalie, why is she doing this anyway.Natalie faces the waitress.“Get us two plates of all the special dishes”“Thank you, ma”The waitress bows 90 degrees and turns away.Jason's eyebrows raised a little.“Can we finish that. It's too much”Natalie dropped the menu back on the table.“If we can't finish it, you can take the rest home, that is what I want”Jason decided to check the cost of each special dish, he knows Natalie is rich but ordering two plates of all the special dishes, won't that be too expensive.His eyebrows raised a little when he saw the amount on each. Five thousand for one special dish, and they are ten in numbers, which means, Natalie is paying a hundred thousand dollars for everything.That is too much.“Natalie, the cost is too much, why are you treating me to such a costly meal”Jason couldn't believe what was happening, there is no way Natalie is doing this because she felt sorry for him, and there is no way that she likes him.That can't be true, he doesn't even like her.Natalie's place her phone on the table, she was typing when Jason was scanning through the prices.She faced Jason.“Can you just relax, I am the one paying the bills, I wanted to apologize on the behalf of Jade, and as for the expensive treating, I will tell you when we are done eating”Jason was starting to feel uncomfortable, he had never tasted a meal that costs five thousand dollars, only a fool will buy such a meal.Several waiters appeared in a straight line, if people were around, this would've easily taken the spotlight.They bowed respectfully as they arranged the plates on the table.They were done in less than five minutes.Natalie stares at the dishes with excitement, there are some that she hasn't tasted before, she will start with those.“Let's dig in”“Thanks for the meal”Jason picked up the spoon on the table, he was about to dive in when somebody laughter passed through his ears.His attention immediately moved to the door, it was Jade, she was coming in with Robert, they were holding each other's hands, smiling brightly.Jason's face darkened, Natalie followed his gaze and her face also darkened.“Darling, look who is here, just who we were talking about”Robert and Jade's attention moved to Jason and Natalie, Jason was uncomfortable, he didn't want to see Jade's face again, certainly not on the same day she ditched him.Robert holds Jade's hand firm.“Darling, why don't we sit opposite them”His cheeks moved to his eyes, Jade was smiling too, but it couldn't be compared to the smile on Robert.Natalie faced Jason.“Don't look at them, just let them be”Jason's fist tightened, but he nods to Natalie's words.He focused his attention on the dishes in front of him.Natalie was quick in tasting all the dishes on the table before Robert and Jade finally reached them.Robert stopped close to Jason, then he faced the waiter standing some distance away.“Hey!!, How can you serve him special dishes without collecting the bills first, does this look like somebody that can afford a hundred thousand dollars”Jade also glances at the dishes before she faces Jason.“Jason, how can you order so many special dishes, can you even afford one. This is a
Jason remained calm, but something was starting to linger inside him, he wondered why nobody was around.This place should be busy with people entering and leaving, but nobody is here, could it be everything has been arranged to that extent, then the owner is aware too.Jason was still lost in thoughts when a barking voice vibrated the room.“Who the hell is he, who refused to pay for the meals he ordered!!”Mr. Landon stormed inside with several bodyguards following him from behind.His red suit was dashing, he was a medium height man with an extremely large belly, his stomach will probably house four kids without issues.The waitress rushed to him.“Sir!, this man refused to pay for what he ordered”Landon examined Jason from head to toe, what a poor bastard, a poor man has no voice in this world, yet he dares to make trouble with the rich, he is definitely after death.Seeing Jason was more attractive than him even made him more angry, a poor bastard shouldn't be this handsome.“So
Mr. Landon quickly recovered from the slap, he faced his men and roared.“What are you still doing, release him!!”Sir George doesn't like violence, and he is the Mayor, there is no way he will folds his hand and watch him brutally assault somebody.Dammit!!This bastard is lucky that the Mayor showed up.Jason was released immediately, he was starting to break free anyway, his strength seemed to be increasing every minute.He doesn't know what is happening to him, his body seems to be packed with so much energy, surely those men won't have been able to hold him any longer.Jason walks to the exit without looking at anybody's face; however, he plans to show the Mayor his respect.Mr. Landon couldn't hold it anymore, Jason wasn't walking fast enough, he was delaying the Mayor's time.“Get the hell out of here already, Bastard!!!”George's face darkened, he would've killed Mr. Landon already if these kids weren't here, he is lucky to still be alive, and he dares insult the master again.
Jason's eyebrows raised, George was telling the truth, strange things were happening, and his body seemed to be packed with a lot of energy.“What is happening to me, does it have something to do with this ring”George examined the ring and his eyebrows raised, it's growing really fast, the master is evolving at a fast rate.At this rate, it will take only a month for the master to fully have access to all the powers that have been cultivated into the ring.This is remarkable.He faces Jason.“It has something to do with the ring, that ring is the ring of supremacy, and it's only given to the next successor of the Spectre family.“It houses all the strength and abilities of the former predecessor”Jason's heart was starting to pound heavily, this is serious, this ring is truly something else, he was scared for some unknown reason.“Why is it happening now, I have been putting it on since I was five”George stepped closer to Jason.“You are up to the age now, and your blood came in con
“I understand”He frowns as he ends the phone call, Natalie blocked his view immediately.“Can your dad help”“He can't”Robert covers his face with both of his palms.“This is the Mayor orders, my dad possibly can't do anything”Natalie's heart vibrated, she squats on the floor with more tears streaming down from her face, she would have to quit school, the contract working time is twenty hours daily, at this rate, she is never going to graduate.Her body was shaking, it's because of that animal, that pauper.Robert faces Natalie.“It's not over yet, my dad says they are having a meeting with the Mayor tomorrow, he will ask his boss to talk to him, at least you are still a student, he will lessen the working time”“What about the years, can he help with that…. it's twenty years, twenty years!”She will be forty before her contract expires, that is insane. Totally insane.Robert massaged his forehead, with a sign of disappointment written on his face.“That is the highest he can do. L
Giovanni's red eyes were glowing as he emerged from the darkness, these monkeys have no idea what they are doing, they dared to hinder the master movement, the last surviving heir of the Spectre family.They even dare to stand in his presence.He wanted to move when Bobby fell to his knees immediately.“Have mercy, your highness!. The great lord of the dark”His body was vibrating with fear, what has he done, what the fuck has he done. Mr. Landon says this kid has no background information, why is the great lord of the dark here, the king of the night is a nine-star warrior, and he is one step away from breaking through into a grandmaster.He is the strongest among the five night kings of Ocean Berry, he won't dare to mess with the underlings of the Hades, let alone the Hades king himself.“Have mercy, your highness”Bobby bows his head on the floor, he was trembling uncontrollably as he awaits the response of the night king; however, Giovanni walked past him.His attention was on th
Joe Landon sat close to his wine rack, two empty bottles of wine were close to his chair and he was holding a full glass of wine in his right hand. His attention moves to the telephone behind him, he wonders what is taking Bobby so long, it's just a kid, how long will he take to finish a mere university kid. The front door suddenly bashed open, and a man dressed in black suit rushed to Joe, his footsteps were lagging due to his shaking body, fear was completely written on his face as he reached Joe. Joe stands up when he sees the white envelope on his butler hand. He asked Bobby to send him the head of the kid, but this is just a normal envelope, there is no way the kid's head will be inside. “What is it Bernard, why the rush and why are you sweating”Bernard hands the envelope over to Joe. “Somebody delivered this to the guards at the gate, he wants us to leave Ocean Berry now”He saw how frightened the guards were, whoever delivered this letter must be a person of prestigious s
Joe heart skipped, how is this possible, that little kid is the master of the Hades clan. He ran a background check on him, and he is just a commoner, a low life pauper, one that can't even afford his meal, how can he be the master of the Hades clan. What has he done. “My Lord—”Giovanni instantly slashed Joe's head away, nobody offends the master and go scout free or live to see the next day, unless the master says otherwise. He swings his katana twice removing the blood stain on it, before he places it back in his scabbard. “Master, What do we do with the bodies”The female among the four individuals sounded. Giovanni turned facing the doorway. “Set the mansion ablaze”He gently walks to the exit, the rest of the Landon family properties will be sold to compensate the master for mental damages. Joe Landon has no family, he is an old man who has been flexing with young girls all his life, this death serves him right. “Yes, master!”The four individuals sounded at the same ti
The tension in the scene was palpable, the young master’s grip tightening around Summer’s neck as her face contorted with discomfort. Jason’s calm voice broke through the chaos, low and steady but laced with warning. “Let her go.”At that moment The young master turned to Jason, his expression a mixture of arrogance and disdain. “And if I don’t?” he sneered. “What are you going to do about it?”However Jason didn’t respond immediately, his sharp gaze fixed on the man. Summer’s breaths grew shallow, her panic evident in her red eyes. The young master, clearly enjoying the moment, smirked as he applied more pressure. “See? You can’t—”Before he could finish his sentence, Jason was suddenly there, his hand gripping the young master’s wrist with a force that made him wince. The speed of Jason’s movement had left the young master—and everyone watching—stunned.They couldn't believe how he got their so fast.“What the—” the young master stammered, his face twisting in shock as Jason held h
Hearing the voice Jason stood still, his body relaxed but ready, as the man across from him snarled, his fists trembling with pent-up rage.“You’ll regret this,” the man spat, his voice dripping with venom.Immediately He took a step closer, his eyes wild with anger.At that moment Jason cocked his head slightly, his gaze steady and almost bored. “Regret?” he asked, his tone calm but cutting. “I don’t think you’ve thought this through before depriving everyone from entering as if you owns the place.”Hearing what Jason just said.The man scoffed, his lips curling into a sneer. “You talk big, but let’s see what you can actually do.” Without waiting for a response, he lunged forward, swinging a flurry of punches aimed at Jason’s face.However Jason moved effortlessly, stepping just out of reach each time. This guy’s swings are wild, no focus, all brute force. Typical Amateur. He dodged another strike, his eyes locked on the man’s every move.“Is that it?” Jason said, his voice laced wi
The burly man’s face twisted with irritation as Jason maintained his firm grip on his wrist. Immediately his eyes narrowed, a mixture of anger and disbelief flashing across his features. “I’m warning you,” he growled, his voice low and menacing. “Let me go before you regret it.”However Jason’s expression remained calm, his grip steady but not aggressive. “Not until you move aside,” he said evenly. “We’re here for a reason, and you don’t have the authority to block us.”Upon hearing what Jason just said The crowd around them murmured quietly, tension rippling through the air. The man shifted his stance, trying to pull his arm free, but Jason’s hold didn’t waver. The quiet strength in Jason’s demeanor only seemed to unsettle him further.At that moment Summer, sensing the brewing storm, quickly stepped forward, her tone light but firm. “Jason, it’s fine,” she said, placing a hand on his arm. “We don’t need to make this a bigger deal than it is.”At that moment Jason glanced at her,
At that moment Jason had just turned the key in the ignition, ready to leave, when a figure appeared out of nowhere, standing in his way. He hit the brakes instinctively and blinked, his calm demeanor briefly giving way to surprise.It was Summer.She stood there with her arms crossed, her expression unreadable as she looked at him through the windshield. At that moment Jason’s heart missed a beat. “What the hell is she doing here?”Rolling the window down, Jason leaned out slightly. “Summer?” he asked, his voice carrying a mix of shock and confusion. “What are you doing here?”Immediately Summer walked over, her steps measured, her face perfectly calm—as if she hadn’t just appeared out of nowhere. “What? Surprised to see me?” she said with a faint smirk.Hearing what summer just said .Jason narrowed his eyes slightly, trying to get a read on her. “Did you—” He hesitated. “Did you see all of that?”Summer tilted her head, feigning innocence. “See what?” she replied nonchalant
At that moment Camila stepped out of the car, her heels clicking on the pavement, her expression a mixture of surprise and curiosity. “Grandfather?” she called out, her tone sharp. “What are you doing here? Why did you come?” didn’t answer her immediately. Instead, he turned his attention to Jason, his sharp eyes studying him for a brief moment before extending a hand.Jason, unfazed by the unexpected formality, shook his hand firmly.“I’ve heard good things about you,” her grandfather said, his tone calm but laced with curiosity. He glanced at the car behind Jason, his eyes lingering on the sleek Mercedes G-Wagon. “Impressive vehicle.”Jason nodded politely, his expression neutral. “Thank you, sir.”At that moment Camila folded her arms, her frustration mounting. “Grandfather, why are you here?” she pressed, her voice carrying a slight edge. “You don’t just show up like this.”At that moment Her grandfather finally turned to her, his expression unreadable. “The school management
At that moment Jason’s calm words seemed to hang in the air, leaving the group momentarily stunned. “Bring the car around,” he had said, as though it was the most natural thing in the world. But to everyone else, it was absurd, they couldn't believe what they just heard.“Did he just… call for a car?” one of the boys whispered, his disbelief evident. “Jason? The guy who probably doesn’t even own a scooter?”Another laughed, the sound sharp and mocking. “What car is he talking about? Is he hoping a taxi will count as his ride now?”The murmurs quickly turned into open insults, their frustration boiling over. “Jason’s at it again,” someone said loudly, shaking their head. “Always trying to save face. What’s next? Claiming he owns the building too?”At that moment Robert, sensing an opportunity to fuel the fire, stepped forward with a smug grin. He looked directly at Jason, his voice loud and condescending enough for everyone to hear. “You know, Jason, you’ll never change, will yo
However Camila’s gaze stayed fixed on Natalie, her expression cold but controlled. “Apologies,” she said, her voice firm and deliberate, “are best done on knees. That is, if the person apologizing is reasonable enough.”Upon hearing what Camilla just Said.Natalie’s face burned with humiliation, but the weight of Camila’s words left her with no room for defiance. She glanced around, searching for even a shred of support from the boys, but all of them avoided her gaze. Slowly, reluctantly, she dropped to her knees, her head bowed low.“I’m sorry,” Natalie said, her voice trembling, though she tried to sound composed. “I shouldn’t have said all those words. Please forgive me.”The boys exchanged awkward glances, clearly uncomfortable but unwilling to challenge Camila. One of them finally cleared his throat, trying to ease the tension. “Alright, she has apologized. Let’s just cover her bill and move on.”Another nodded quickly, eager to move past the awkwardness. “Yeah, we can handle
At that moment The room fell into an awkward silence, the earlier mockery evaporating as Jason’s calm declaration settled over everyone. The group exchanged uneasy glances, disbelief etched across their faces.“Did he really just say he’s got this?” one whispered, leaning toward his friend.“There’s no way,” another murmured, shaking his head. “Jason doesn’t have that kind of money. What’s he playing at?”Jason, seemingly unfazed.‘His expression remained calm, but his mind wasn’t as quiet. They think they’ve cornered me. Let them think what they want. They’ll see soon enough.’At that moment Camila’s voice cut through the room like a knife. “Wait.”All heads turned toward her. The tension thickened as she reached into her purse, pulled out her own sleek black card, and tossed it onto the tray with a sharp flick of her wrist. The waiter froze, glancing between Jason and Camila.“I’ll pay,” she said firmly, her tone brooking no argument.Jason paused mid-motion,His eyes met Camila’s,
Upon seeing what Camilla just did.The room was suffocating with unspoken tension, the weight of past revelations still lingering in the air. At t that moment Camila’s voice rose, clear and steady, demanding attention without raising its volume.“Enough,” she said again firmly, stepping forward. Her heels clicked against the floor, drawing every eyes to her. “What’s done is done. The past doesn’t matter anymore—it’s gone, and it’s staying that way. What matters is what a person can offer now, and in the future.”Immediately her gaze swept the room, locking onto each face, daring anyone to argue, but none said anything they were still shocked to what was happening.At that moment she turned to Jason, her expression softening slightly. “And when I look at Jason,” she continued, “I see someone who’s got a bright future ahead of him.”Hearing what Camilla just said.Natalie couldn't help but shake her head.She couldn't believe what she was hearing, how can Camilla say such nonsense, c
