Rick couldn’t move an inch.

He stood rooted like a tree and was unable to take a step forward or speak a word.

“Mrs. Teresa really loves you, Mr. Rick,” Ulmer said. “I’m sure you also love her just the same. You wouldn’t want to see her even hit a stone and stumble, right?”

Rick’s heart began to beat faster. The young man before him did not seem like an immature brat right now, and he suddenly realized how much bounty was put on him.

It wasn’t a million dollars.

It wasn’t even a billion dollars.

It was a freaking trillion dollars!

This was a bounty that was unheard of, and yet Rick thought he could toy with Ulmer and easily defeat him?

Rick felt a bit foolish for thinking he could easily outsmart everyone and climb the ladder of the underworld using this golden opportunity.

After all, he now found himself in a bit of a pickle.

“My uncle Jude and my aunt Kristi were also married for so long, but they don’t have children just like you couple,” Ulmer added. “They say God is the one who c

    Seeing the frustration building on Ulmer’s face, Rick put one leg on top of another and sat confidently.“Do you realize what kind of a situation you’re in now?” Rick blurted. “And your situation is only going to get worse because a bounty was put on your head.”“A bounty?”“Yeah, you fought one of the Thorns, so what else did you expect?” Rick raised an eyebrow. “Soon, all of the underworld will be after you. All the assassins, hitmen, vampires, and even the stinky reptilians who don’t like revealing themselves will be after your ass for the whooping bounty that’s put on your head.”“How much bounty are we talking about?” Ulmer curiously asked.“A lot more than you can imagine,” Rick said. “My point is that the assassins will not hesitate to go after your family if they can’t get to you. You maybe strong and capable, but you can’t protect your entire family, can you? You can’t be everywhere they go. You’re not God. You are definitely an intelligent guy, given that you managed to get

    Ulmer returned to the apartment in Bronich city. He was sitting out on the balcony of that apartment while his grandmother was sleeping.And he was talking to his system Dove.[What are you thinking about?]“What else? The future is going to be messy,” Ulmer slightly shook his head. “I am wondering if I should bring Ayana and her family to the Bronich city or not. Will they be able to live peacefully with all this chaos around me? If they can’t even go to a shop without my protection, then what would be the point of bringing them here?”[You’re quite correct. That’s why you should resolve this issue before you bring Ayana and her family.]“Huh! Easy for you to say,” Ulmer snorted. “I’m fighting against an unknown number of enemies here. And I’m wondering if I should find some allies or not.”[Did you forget what the vampire girl said? You can’t trust anybody.] Dove opined. [They might backstab you and steal your system from you.]“So I have to deal with everything on my own,” Ulmer c

    A few hours earlier, on that same night.At Ross’ duplex home, everyone was talking about just one thing.Why did Marcus Merry kneel and even kiss Ulmer’s hand?Ivy asked her son Ben to ask his friend Leeval. Ben tried to contact Leeval through mobile and online profiles, but Leeval was not reachable in any way.“It just does not make any sense,” Kristi was saying in frustration while sipping on banana juice mixed with milk and sugar. “Wasn’t Ulmer just a useless guy who couldn’t even get a job after graduating?”“He took seven years to graduate,” Ivy added to Kristi’s words. “Or was it eight? Either way, I think he must have something to blackmail Mr. Marcus. Otherwise, why would Marcus kneel in front of that brat?”“He even called him Master,” Jamie said, rubbing his forehead a little. “Just thinking about is giving me a headache. I can’t think of one good reason why Marcus would kneel before Ulmer even if Ulmer had something on him. I mean, he can just kill Ulmer by hiring some thu

    Ivy was taking Jamie away with him to another room so she could have a talk with him, but then an unexpected figure entered the hall.“Mr. Marcus!” Ross was startled.Everybody’s eyes widened because he brought a dozen gunmen with him.“W-What are you doing here?” Ross stepped forward as his instincts told him this was bad news.Jamie and Calvin were telling others to hurry and leave the hall.“Don’t fret, folks,” Marcus said in a loud voice. “I didn’t come here to kill you but to save you.”“T-To save us?” Ivy looked utterly confused. “What do you mean by that?”“Your family is in danger because of Rick Orsini and a few other men,” Marcus gave them just enough details. “So, I’ll be leaving these gunmen here. They will guard you all, so if you need anything, you will get it from them. And that means, you’re not leaving this house anytime soon.”“W-What the hell are you talking about?” Ross seemed quite perplexed. “Why would Rick harm us? He just talked with us nicely a few hours back

    The next morning.Ulmer entered the hotel room and said, “Grandma, it’s eight o’clock. Wake up. I brought sweet milk and cookies.”However, there was no response from her. She wasn’t moving at all.Ulmer’s heart skipped a beat. He went over to her and put his finger under her nose. Feeling her breathing, he felt relieved.She was too important of a figure in his life, and the last thing he wanted was for her to disappear. He may be quite powerful, but he still didn’t have the strength to stop her from entering the afterlife if that’s what God wanted to happen today.Feeling grateful for the current moment he was sharing with her, Ulmer then played the rock music softly on the record player.Ulmer sat on the edge of the bed and crunched on the cookies and sipped on the sweet milk.The smell of the cookies eventually reached Mollie’s nose. A few seconds later, her nose twitched whether it be due to excitement or irritation.She opened her eyes and got up. “Are those biscuits?” her eyes

    The car arrived at Ross’ house, but Marcus sat silently in his seat because both Ulmer and Mollie were sleeping.Marcus was feeling proud of Ulmer, thinking, “Even after knowing that he’s got a trillion dollar bounty on his head, he’s still able to take a nap. As expected of someone I accepted as my master! Just when I think that things might be getting too much for him, he proves me wrong.”A few seconds of silence passed.“But this time, the enemies are not one or two groups… the enemy is the entire swamp itself,” Marcus thought. “It’s not something just one man can fight against. I’m not able to hire anybody to come to our side as they could all be tempted to go for Master’s head. Only the closest associates to me are on my side, but they are nowhere near enough. In any major war, the pawns play a significant role. Since we don’t have the pawns, we have to strengthen our defenses even more. So, instead of spreading out, staying in one house is the safest option.”Marcus looked in t

    Ulmer, who was in a dream despite being a mere clone, suddenly felt something strike him, and it forcefully brought him out of his sleep.When he opened his eyes, he saw Marcus’ face up close, and Marcus’ hand had pierced right through his chest.There was no expression of happiness, anger, or anything on Marcus’ face. He looked like a robot on a mission. His eyes looked dead.However, confusion soon filled Marcus’ eyes as no blood poured out of Ulmer’s chest. And Marcus felt like he had stuck his hand in a quagmire. He tried to pull his hand, but it wouldn’t come.“Why Marcus?” Ulmer’s face thickened with anger. “Why did you do this? I had a feeling that you might shift sides again, but I didn’t expect you to do it so quickly. Was it for the trillion dollars?”Marcus, however, didn’t say anything. Instead, he tried to grab Mollie’s throat.Ulmer couldn’t let that happen. Before Marcus’ hand could reach Mollie, Ulmer’s fist struck his face.Marcus should have gotten blown back, but hi

    In an underground city called Crimia, which was built under Bronich city on the western side of it.This city had an area of exactly 1000 square kilometers, and it was built hundreds of areas ago and stood the test of time to this day, thanks to its thick red brick walls.From thieves and larcenists to bank robbers and airplane hijackers, all kinds of criminals of all levels gathered here.This city became a hub for transportation of drugs, humans, and other illegal goods from one end to another.Manslaughter was the most common thing in this almost-lawless region.The city had 109 levels, with the lowest level 1 being closest to the surface and the highest level 109 being the bottom-most.

    A few months later.Ben and Amelie not only started their business together but also got married, and Ivy as usual caused a lot of noise during the marriage, asking Ross Richard to give her son this and that.Ross had to give in to her demands because of his daughter Amelie.Ivy’s brother took some gold from her and started a restaurant business because Ulmer had commanded him to stop his finance business as he was sucking people’s blood with it. His wife didn’t like it and went back to her home, but she would eventually return to his side a few years later, after her mother would die.Rick Orsini’s right-hand man, Lexor, was sitting alone on the rooftop of a big hotel, reading the online news on his tablet.“Someone called Urban God joined the Underworld Kings competition?” Lexor raised his eyebrows. “If he’s the real deal, no one will be able to stop him.”Underworld Kings was a world-wide martial arts competition where people with all kinds of superpowers competed, with loose rules

    “Your wife?!”“That girl who looks younger than Ruth is your wife?” Ivy quickly said. “Are you out of your mind, Ulmer?”“She’s 19,” Ulmer coldly glanced at her. “So, what’s the problem?”“T-That’s…” Ivy found her throat shaking. His gaze felt intimidating. “I-Isn’t there too much age gap between you two?”“What bullshit are you saying, Ivy?” Mollie snorted. “My grandson is not even thirty, and you say there’s an age gap? Can’t you see that they both look nice next to one another? Also, it’s actually nice if there's a five to six year gap between the husband and wife.”Mollie gently held Ayana’s cheeks and lifted up her head.“Where did you hide such a pretty girl all this time from us, Ulmer?” Mollie said. “You will get punished for this later.”“Ulmer always talks greatly about you, Grandmother,” Ayana said. “So, please forgive him this once.”“Hahaha,” Mollie laughed heartily. “Your wife is already defending you so much, Ulmer.

    The news of so many Thorns dying did not get leaked in the underworld, much less to the common public.However, some of the topdogs in the underworld eventually heard of the heart-shaking news that more than half of the thorns died in the hands of someone called the Urban God.And the title Urban God started to be feared by those who have heard about it.Also, a new bounty appeared on the Urban God, whose name and face were kept hidden by the thorns on purpose.His current bounty was a quadrillion dollars, twice as much as the current world’s known wealth.The amount was so ridiculous and crazy that many bounty hunters thought it was just a fake bounty. A scam. A joke.But then there were those who believed that it could be real and started to investigate the name Urban God. However, most of them would give up on their search the more they learned about the recent history of the Urban God.A few weeks after Crimia was buried from the hidden face of the earth.Minerva had woken up, but

    At around two in the night, the vibrations stopped, and the people finally were able to breathe freely.Many of them went back into their homes and slept. Some still stayed outside, afraid of the quake happening again.Around three in the night, Dark Monarch arrived at the Bronich city, but he was surprised to find out that the entire Crimia had been buried by mud. All the entrances were sealed off by mud.“What the hell just happened here in the time I was gone? Was he responsible for this?”Just then, he looked up into the sky.Miles high in the sky, Abbie was flying away with her mother’s body in her arms, her expression dark and desolate under moonlight.“Isn’t that…”Suddenly, immense pressure was put on his body.“Gravity Cage…” Ulmer appeared next to him.Dark Monarch’s body was crushed from every angle by pressure he had never experienced before. He screamed at the top of his lungs.“You should have never returned,” Ulmer did not spare even an inkling of mercy on him. “Gravity

    “She’s going to live,” the royal healer, Irvi, an old lady with poisonous pimples all over her face, said. She was 120 years old but was still able to stand straight. However, her voice was not steady. She was observing Minerva’s pulse.Minerva was lying on the bed in the medical chambers not far from the royal palace.“However, her system has integrated with her body, so we can’t take it out,” Irvi said. “If we do it right now, she will die.”“Is it not possible to separate the system without killing her?” Ulmer asked.“It is, but that’s only possible when she overcomes the system?” Irvi responded. “The chances of that ever happening are slim.”Ulmer frowned but then said, “Do what you can to heal her.”“I will. That’s my job, after all,” Irvi said. “No matter how wicked a person may be, if they come to my doorstep, I will not turn my back toward them.”Ulmer slightly bowed his head to her and walked out onto the balcony of that building, where Minerva’s dad, Neodus was present.“I t

    The vines suddenly dashed at Ulmer from behind.Ulmer didn’t even move an inch and stood unmoving.The vines rushed past him at a terrific speed and pierced Minerva’s body everywhere. She coughed out a lot of blood.“I didn’t want my blood on your hands,” she tried to smile despite the pain coursing through her body. “I’m… really sorry… for everything.”She was collapsing forward.Ulmer let go of the sword and held her shoulders, stopping her from falling to the ground.Minerva’s eyes began to turn completely dark. The vines that pierced her body began to turn direction and then pierced through Ulmer’s body from behind.Blood rushed to Ulmer’s mouth, but kept his mouth shut. Still, blood slowly leaked from a corner of his mouth.He sent a mental message to her. “It’s okay…”He wrapped his arms around her and hugged her.Minerva’s eyes shed more tears, and the blackness in her eyes began to disperse slowly but surely.In a few moments, Minerva’s eyes closed.He could still feel her spi

Someone with whom he had gone shopping with?

Know your place, vermin!” Ishtar, the war goddess, who looked extremely seductive as well as scary, squinted her eyes, releasing a powerful wave of energy that was supposed to suppress her opponent.Ulmer felt goosebumps all over. “Whooo… that tingles.” He smiled with excitement. (She saw through my system with a glance. I don’t know who she is, but she’s very dangerous. It’s not just her….) His gaze fell on others. (They are all
