The Rise of the Urban God CHAPTER 246
“Why are you so interested in what I do?” Ulmer asked, seemingly out of curiosity.Ben did not expect such a question from Ulmer.“Well, you’re my brother. Do I no need a special reason to help you or what?” Ben snorted. “Honestly, I feel bad for you because of what happened to your parents and sisters. But you still don’t seem to be taking your life seriously. Time doesn’t wait for anyone, Ulmer. Don’t waste your time in some shitty cafe, serving stupid customers who are addicted to drinking coffee and eating cupcakes.”Ulmer somewhat smiled. While Ulmer could tell that Ben didn’t really love him, he also felt like Ben still somewhat cared for Ulmer in his own twisted way.“I appreciate your concern, Ben,” Ulmer said. “I really do. But a job is something that I have to be passionate about, or I will be the one who’ll suffer there every day. So, what job I do in the future is up to me. Whether it’s as a waiter in a cafe, or as a janitor in some company, I will do what I feel like doin

The next morning.Everyone was having breakfast together, and everybody looked happy except for Ruth.“Is it that time of the month?” Mollie asked her in a low voice. She was quite happy that she was able to eat with everyone now, but she didn’t like seeing Ruth in dull spirits.Ruth shook her head.“Don’t bother about her, Mom,” Jamie said. “She’s been like that since yesterday. She’s upset that we only bought her ice cream and not a dress.”“Oh…” Mollie wished she could give Ruth some money.“Didn’t you buy a dress on your birthday recently?” Ivy reminded her.“Recently? That was three months back!” Ruth pouted with wet eyes, which made Amelie smile.“Why don’t we both go shopping then, Ruth?” Amelie suggested.Ruth’s eyes lit up. “R-Really?”“Amelie, don’t fall for her tear-tactics,” Ben said. “She’s not a child anymore, but she hasn't changed at all. You think crying will get you what you want, Ruth? Then you’re fully mistaken!”“I didn’t cry!” Ruth yelled, her eyes still wet. “I’

Ruth picked clothes of all colors, and she brought them to the counter. The cashier counted the bill for those dresses and said, “You’ve picked 12 pairs in total, ma’am. After a 5 percent discount, the bill is 105,852 dollars.”Ruth’s heart picked up pace. “M-My sister-in-law will pay.”The cashier nodded in return.Ruth anxiously waited at the counter, trying her best to not chew on her nails, but it was proving difficult.“What’s taking her so long?” Ruth wondered. “Is she buying more clothes than me?”Just then, Ulmer arrived at the counter and saw the bill slip in her hand.“Can I take a look?” he asked her.But Ruth hid the bill behind her back. “Brother, you should go out and get our car to the front door.”“But I don’t have the keys,” Ulmer replied, making her feel stupid.“I’m not going to tell your parents or brother about the bill,” Ulmer said. “So, let me take a look at it.”Ruth could see the persistence in his voice, so she didn’t want to anger him too much. “If you tell

Amelie and Ruth were returning home. Ruth looked very happy because she bought a lot more clothes than she expected. She couldn’t wait to show off her dresses to her friends.But then she noticed in the mirror the mobile Ulmer was using.She turned around and took a direct look at it. “What’s the mobile you’re using, bro?”“I don’t know. It doesn’t have any brand on it,” Ulmer said.“Is it some Chinese company then?’ she snickered. “I know that you don’t have money, but you shouldn’t buy such cheap mobiles. If it explodes in your pocket, what will you do?”Ulmer didn’t say anything, but Ruth’s words made him look at the system settings in his mobile, and he then managed to find the company of the mobile. It turned out that this was a mobile given to Drevon bank customers, and it was custom made by a third-party company to fit the needs. It had 2 TB internal memory and 12 GB ram, so Ulmer was pretty satisfied by how fast it was working.“I should ask for more of these so I can give it
The Rise of the Urban God CHAPTER 250
Jake was sitting at the neighboring table, acting as a customer, and was eavesdropping on the conversation Ulmer and Ririka were having.“That crystal…” Jake squinted his eyes. “It’s likely a beast crystal only found in the forbidden seas. This confirms that he’s been to Syslon.” He was talking in his earpiece so that Whitley could hear him. “We have to get our hands on those crystals he has.”“First find out who that girl is,” Whitley told him.Jake secretly took a picture on his mobile and sent it to a private chat group, and he received information on her in seconds. “Oh, she’s a big fish. She’s the heir of Drevon Bank. Wait,” his eyes lit up. “Since he’s meeting her, it means he’s either storing all the crystals in the bank or wants to store them soon.”Whitley grinned. “Great, then let’s confirm it and then loot the bank tonight and sweep all those crystals.”Moments later, Whitley brought the chicken rolls and beef meatballs over. Both Ulmer and Ririka ate the items and talked f

“You’re running a cafe,” Ulmer added. “Obviously, you’re not stupid.”“I’ll take that as a compliment,” Whitley smiled. “Since you clearly are not poor, you are not going to work at my cafe, right?”“If I have money, can’t I work in your shop?” Ulmer asked her back.“Of course, you can, but the reason I wanted to give you the job in the first place was because I wanted to improve the situation of your life,” Whitley tried her best to look like she cared for him. “You jumped into the river. Obviously, you’re going through some shit in life. It doesn’t seem like it's a money problem. So, if you tell me what that problem is, I could help you, or at least I’ll try my best to help you.”Because Whitley was beginning to doubt Ulmer, she didn’t want him to join her cafe as a waiter anymore. She liked this place, and if he were to ruin it, she wouldn’t be able to take it.“I do need help with one thing,” Ulmer could see that she was not wearing the three-skull earrings anymore. So, he had to

Ulmer was very thrifty in general, so watching his one million dollars going down the drain wasn’t a pleasant experience at all. He was not crying outside, but his heart was crying inside.Watching them felt like days. His plan was to see how they would react to that much money, but he didn’t expect them to shop with it. He was disappointed to say the least. However, something he had been hoping for since knowing them happened now.Someone from that same organization came to meet them. He was wearing a copper-skull earring.“What are you two doing when you were given an important mission?” He rebuked Jake and Whitley.“Why are you raising your voice against us?” Whitley growled back at him. “You’re just a mere copper grade, so don’t tell us, your superiors, what to do.”“Don’t mind her words, Brother Leeval,” Jake tried to speak formally. “We’re dealing with our target and are assessing his strength and assets. I think this will help our organization much more than if we simply killed

“What the hell? Why did these bastards stop at my uncle’s home?” Ulmer’s heart raced for a second at the thought that they might attack his family.However, to his shock, both Ben and Amelie came out of the house and talked with them in a very friendly manner.Ulmer was still in the taxi, but he was able to hear their conversation. He soon deduced that they were college friends.“We are good friends,” Leeval told Ben and Amelie. “So, why are you so surprised that we want to invest in both of your companies? I personally didn’t think you’d both really try to start companies, but now that you’re doing it, I will support you. Of course, I want the companies to do well, but I’ll keep my interference as little as possible. The same goes for these two. We will give you almost complete freedom. What do you say?”Amelie was still reluctant about it, but Ben said, “I’d be grateful if you guys could invest in our companies.”“I knew you’d say that, Ben,” Leeval gave him a fist bump, followed b
