The reaction of the two old men was expected, they both glared at Johnathan who soon took off out of fright, inwardly promising not to show his face before them again. Elena shook her head while Rhys tried so hard to restrain his laughter. “Mum, what was that for?”Lydia shrugged, not giving her son any response, instead she beckoned to Elena and they both left to discuss something else. Seeing the old men settle their temporary feud with each other, Rhys walked towards them with two small bottles in his hands. “Grandfathers, I have something for both of you.”Harrison’s face brightened up. “You have something good for this old man?” Rhys nodded before showing them the bottles in his hands, both of them contained the mild version of the life extension elixir mixed with the diluted lake water. It was enough to heal the poison in Luther’s body and even help restructuring the bodies of both men.The two men grabbed the bottle and began to shoo him off. “Hey, just a drop daily!” He anno
Rhys flicked the dagger gently to remove the blood on it. “Lets go further,” He said casually to Rio who woke up as soon as he sensed that the wolf was dead. Both of them moved further into the cave which was now shaped like a wide tunnel. They arrived before a group of four wolves, behind them were two paths.“Master this may be difficult for you.” Rio said as he walked towards a corner, the wolves eyes were fixed on Rhys who had suddenly appeared. “I can get rid of both of them for you.” As the spirit of the space, Rio could control everything that happened in here, and killing two wolves was as easy as flicking one of his small hands.Although Rhys had killed a single wolf, attacking a group of them was different, one could be attacked from behind while he was trying to fight one enemy which was a very big disadvantage. Experience was needed to fight a group of monsters and people alike. Rhys didn’t have any attack skills so this was definitely going to be difficult for him but h
When Rhys was unconscious in the hospital, Rio had staged a means for the Fernandez men to find him, he had claimed that he was searching for food and had lost his way. Lydia was so worried about him and over the next few days she had not allowed him to be out of her sight so Rio had to modify everyone’s memories so that they would forget him while he remained in the space.After Rhys had rested properly in the space, he returned to the outside world and realized that he had spent over a day in the space. While he was regaining his strength, his family had been busy, trying to plan a wedding and Elena had to play along with them with Jonathan by her side.Stepping out of the room, he had a very strange feeling in his mind but doesn’t think much about it. He entered the elevator, punched the number for the ground floor and waited. He stepped out of the elevator but the strange feeling in his heart does not disappear, instead it intensifies. The waiting area was very dark. “Increase ro
With just a call from Lydia, three bodyguards entered the house and they took out the bodies, leaving just one. Rhys had killed everyone but one for a reason. The limbs and blood were quickly cleaned up and the room reverted to the normal state it was. Except for the lingering scent of blood in the air, no one would be able to guess what happened in the room. Lydia insisted on helping Rhys clean up and bandage the injury on his shoulder, she complained a few times while she was finishing the task. “How could you be so careless with your life?”“I promise, it would never happen again.” Rhys could only try to reassure her but there wasn’t much that he could say that would calm her down.“What of it has been your heart? What would you have done? Why didn’t you try to escape?” She went on and on about how Rhys could have avoided getting injured, then she turned to the three bodyguards who stood by the side with their heads bowed, they were trying to make their presence in the room very s
In an unknown location, a man sat on his desk, before a computer with a frown on his face as he read the recent news on the internet. The look on his face morphed to that of sheer anger as a picture popped up on the screen. “Who is this bastard! How dare he try to take what belongs to me!” .. the phone on the desk fell on his line of sight, he grabbed it and started to go through some of the contents on it. The picture of a woman appeared on the screen, he smiled as he gazed at it. “It won’t be long before you are by my side.” He kissed the screen and a very malicious expression appeared on his face.The woman on the picture was one that was familiar to a lot of people. It was Elena Topaz.The main socialite of the country and the dream woman of a lot of men and he was not an exception.He could still recall the first time he had saw her, he instantly knew that she was the one he wanted by her side. She would stand by his side and rule the empire he was slowly building, she would al
In another location, there was a man dressed in a white lab coat, he was staring at a large tube placed in the center of the room, inside the tube was a grown man who was twitching in pain, he kept scratching on his naked body with his nails, not caring whether pieces of flesh came off because of his actions.The man was screaming in pain but the sound could not be heard outside the tube, only his expression was enough to describe the pain he was feeling. The doctor was unmoved, he started crackling. “I am close! So close, just a few more experiments and I would be able to control the world.”The man in the test tube couldn’t hang on any longer, he let out a loud scream before his body exploded into bits. All that was left was meat paste and blood in replacement of what had been a human. There were numerous maggots moving around the bits of the man.“Experiment 763 was a failure, but we are so close to success.” The Doctor whispered to a recording pen that he was holding. “With a few
“Boss, we were not able to find the one who shot at you.” Zain nervously said to Rhys. They were currently inside Rhys car, he sat far away from Rhys, scared of getting to close to him.Rhys rubbed his forehead, he was beginning to have a headache, a lot of things have been happening since his return to his family and it was hard to keep up with it. He hasn’t been able to find concrete evidence against his uncle, the one who shot him has not been found and there was no clue of the person who had hired assassins to get rid of him.Everything was more and more complicated as days went by. After the incident with assassins, his bodyguards had increased so much, even though they were not in plain sight, Rhys could still sense their presence around him.“It’s alright Zain, take a walk with me.” Rhys stepped out of the car with a frown on his face and began walking to nowhere in particular. Zain hurriedly got of the car before following Rhys, he quietly walked behind him. There were some
A man who had seeing the interaction between Rhys and Lucas wore a smile on his face as he entered the same restaurant that Rhys had entered. He wasn’t surprised when he doesn’t find a trace of Rhys on the first floor. He walked towards the stairs which led to the second floor. “Sir, can I help you?” The guard stationed at the foot of the stairs was not ride to him after seeing his appearance.The man took out a card, the card collected it, took a glance at it and returned it with a more respectful expression on his face. “Young Master, forgive me for my impudence earlier. I did not recognize you.” The other man still retained the smile on his face, he had taken no offence to the guard’s behavior earlier knowing that it was part of the guard’s duty. “It is fine.”The guard stepped aside, allowing the man to go to the second floor. When the man spotted Rhys and Zain on a table, he walked towards that table, the smile on his face doesn’t falter one bit. “Hello friend, you don’t mind
