2024-11-08 09:09:53“I’m a nutjob, huh. Yeah, I was not able to see through you, so you can call me that,”
Denver sadly smiled, picking the ring off the floor.
It was a heart-shaped ring. Denver also had another such ring on his ring finger now.
The pre-engagement rings were worth around 500 dollars, which was not at all a small amount of money for Denver.
More than the monetary value, the emotional value these pre-engagements rings had in Denver’s mind was great.
They were supposed to be treasured for life, yet how could Diane toss the ring away like it’s nothing?
Did she really never love him? Not even like him?
Diane snorted and looked away.
“Hmph, go and find a monkey to put that ring on,”
Denver did not speak afterward.
As he was walking away, she went out of her way to say,
“Oh, I forgot. You have nothing in your name. Even a beggar wouldn’t want to marry you now.”
Denver did not talk back to them but just clenched his hands.
He just walked toward the main door, leaving behind a trail of blood drops on the white marble floor.
“Why did you say ‘trespassing’? I thought he bought the house?”
Stephen asked her while still smiling.
“That’s because this ISN’T his house,”
“My dad saved his life. Compared to that, what is this house worth?"
"He deserved what he got for not knowing his place, and hurting you.”
Diane said in a sly tone.
Stephen smiled.
“Thank you, sweetie.”
His eyes contained a trace of dark happiness, which meant that he was probably planning something bad.
Diane smiled back pleasantly.
“I should thank you, too, for giving my mom that million dollar check."
"She was all over the moon because she had never held a check worth that much. For making us happy…”
She came closer and whispered,
“I will make your little brother happy with my lips tonight.”
Stephen pulled her closer by the waist and roughly kissed her.
Both of them enjoyed it very much, not at all caring that Denver still didn’t leave the hall.
Denver’s gut twisted as he heard the filthy noises from behind him.
His expression turned stale as if his heart had gone numb.
He strode out of the house almost like a humanoid robot.
Wind blew past him, and he felt something that was in his pocket.
He took the box out. It was a gift he had prepared for his ex-fiancee.
There were exquisite diamond earrings inside.
However, right now, he did not want to look at gift anymore.
Without a shred of hesitation, he threw the box in the trash.
Beside the box, he felt something in his other pocket. He took the item out.
It was a bank card which was given to him by the pretty brunette he met at work that morning.
He had completely forgotten about this.
He took a good look at it now, and he could tell that it was not your regular bank card.
Made with quality materials, the card oozed out luxury and style distinct from regular ones.
It bore the name of a nationally renowned private bank, the Den bank, known for grandiosity and confidentiality, accepting deposits of tens of millions or more.
Denver noticed a strange but unique pattern on the card, identical to the one on the ring he wore when he was found and rescued by Uncle Richard.
“My past, huh…”
Denver remembered what the woman said earlier today.
This card could very well be a joke, but if it can provide answers, then it’s worth checking.
Can anything hurt him more than Diane?
As he approached the Den bank with suspicion in his eyes.
The security guard, who just woke up from his little nap, immediately stood from his stool and pushed Denver’s chest with the stun baton.
“Whoa, whoa, where do you think you’re going? You can’t enter the bank in these mucky clothes?”
“What’s wrong with my clothes? It’s not like they’re covered in mud. These are just an old pair I’ve been using for a while.”
Denver retorted.
the guard’s voice grew thicker, which disturbed the other clients that were around.
“I don’t care. Go back and come in decent clothing,”
“Stop kidding,” Denver tried to walk past the guard, which angered him very much.
“Hey!”
The guard shouted and pressed the light stun button and thrust it toward Denver’s abdomen.
Denver instinctively stepped back and dodged the attack, but his gaze sharpened like that of a tiger on a hunt.
“What’s with that look? You think I’ll be scared of you?”
The guard pressed the full stun activation button and raised his hand high.
“What’s going on here?”
An assistant walked out, his tone annoyed.
“Why are you causing a scene during rush hour?”
He noticed Denver, looking him up and down with disdain.
“What do you want?” he asked coldly.
“I just want to check the balance on this card,”
Denver replied, pulling the card from his pocket.
The assistant barely glanced at it before sneering.
“What’s this? Who would put a dumb pattern like that on our bank cards? You think this is funny?”
With a flick of his wrist, he tossed the card back at Denver’s face.
“Get lost!”
He barked.

CHAPTER 746
The number and the quality of opponents attacking Denver was high. Each of them used voidborn weapons, which required Denver to constantly use spiritual energy.Fynrel and Archon weren’t the only ones that were tough to deal with.Everybody was a hard hitter.The dust that lifted all around him as he fought them reminded him of his working days where he had to carry hundreds of cement bags in a day.His uncle Richard warned him to not do such jobs as inhaling the cement would damage the lungs in the long term.Nevertheless, Denver had to do it because he wanted to make life comfortable for Richard and his family.The dust of the cement back then was tough to bear, but the dust that lifted into the air right now proved way more dangerous.Because of Denver’s increased sensitivity, he could see that tiny parasites that had been lying dormant in this godforbidden place were now getting active due to the warmth the bodies of the human beings and their attacks were bringing.The bigger pro
CHAPTER 745
Elissa was the one who was doing most of the fighting.Casil, on the other hand, created a throne with aura and sat down on it.Each of Elissa’s opponents were the heads of organizations with great history, some going even as far as 300 years.Casil’s eyes lay on those with extreme blue eyes. “Even the Blue Hour Archive people chose to follow that clown… How shameful.”The head of the Blue Hour Archive slipped past Elissa and reached Casil. “He promised to freeze the world in a permanent in-between.” He thrust his hand at Casil’s chest.“And you believed him?” Casil caught his wrist and stopped his momentum, all with a hand made out of aura. He didn’t even have to move a muscle to do that. “You think you can rule this world alongside him because you don’t know how deep his greed is. Assuming he conquers the world… Then what? Even if he gathers every person to fight the city that will descend from heaven in the future… all your armies won’t be enough to even graze that place.”“Are you
CHAPTER 744
Even for the members of Owlers, it had been so long since they heard the name of their leader.The new members didn’t know it, but the likes of Archon and Fynrel did.They never dared to call their leader by his name, so how could they let some outsider utter that name they considered as holy?“Void Slash!” Fynrel put his blade to use with his left hand, and his hammer with his right hand. “Void Pound!”Both attacks were invisible, and even the air was not affected by them.“A form of pure spiritual energy, is it?” Denver was able to sense the attacks. He felt like they were alive and would follow him even if he were to try and dodge.He gathered lighting and spiritual energy, not with noise but in silence.He was in complete control of it.With a simple twisting movement, he punched the air, not forward but upward.A vertical storm erupted from the ground, a pillar of electro-spiritual force ripping into the sky.Lightning braids with spirit, each bolt carrying intent.When they touc
CHAPTER 743
The explosive smoke in the sky rushed toward the ground like it had some beef toward it.Seeing this smoke brought flashes of past memories to Denver.When he was just a little boy, he exchanged herbs for food from a woman selling dried meat on the streets of the Nameless Zone.As he was leaving, the woman got attacked by a group. They stole the dried meat, but one of the meat pieces exploded.That was the first time Denver saw a bomb exploding.The woman looked at Denver and smiled before saying, “You are lucky.”And that was also the last time Denver bought food from anybody in the Nameless Zone.Back to the present.Denver saw faces in that expanding smoke.He recognized some of them. Kuro Yama was there. And so was Killer King Shindo. Above those two was the head of Yakuza, Raijin, riding a snake-machine dragon that was somehow able to fly.And they were just a few among the many that were hiding in the explosion, seemingly unaffected by it.“Those bastards…” Elissa gritted her te
CHAPTER 742
Denver’s attack didn’t get deflected, rather it got teleported to the six reptilians in equal parts.It wasn’t Denver who did it but his dad.The reptilians could not dodge such an attack as it was unpredictable.As a result, their faces got blasted, and part of their necks also suffered severe burns. The snakes around their necks began to shiver and writhe in pain.This pain brought about anger, which made the lizards hiss with their forked tongues. Their horns glowed as they began to use their abilities to warp the senses.“You should have long told me who my mother was!” Denver did not even look at the lizards but continuously launched punches and kicks at his father.Casil teleported all those attacks in equal parts to the reptilians from different directions.They couldn’t get away from these attacks.The more Denver attacked his dad, the more these attacks hit the six reptilians.Elissa laughed in amusement. “The smell of lizards getting roasted feels nice.”Denver, however, did
CHAPTER 741
The explosion happened right in Denver’s face.The shock shook his brain.Moments of the past flashed before his eyes as if the lightning streaks around him carried information to him.Did the reptilian somehow unseal part of his memories?Denver grabbed his own head as a terrible pain gripped him.Scales forged and tightly interlocked around the reptilian’s arm as it threw a punch. “Draconic Fist!”The scaly fist struck Denver’s chest, releasing radiation that distorted Denver’s aura.The scales around its fists grew and tried to dig through Denver’s chest.Sensing the danger, Denver grabbed its arm with both hands and ripped it in opposite directions.The reptilian jumped back. Its slit pupils flared with cold light, and its arm regrew.Denver felt his gaze blurring.“How does the hexvenom feel? It’s a paralyzing venom that can freeze even a 100-meter giant,” the reptilian said, smirking. “It’s only half as effective since I didn’t use my fangs but used my claws to transfer the pois
