The Ultimate Mogul Strikes Back! CHAPTER 110
A couple of minutes ago, after Jeremiah entered the building and was walking in an empty passageway the scent trail of David and Lynette led him to, he saw something very interesting. It was a phone lying on the floor with the back camera facing the ceiling. “What’s this?” He grimaced under his helmet. Curious as to why a phone was abandoned there, Jeremiah walked over to it and then crouched down to pick it up. Once in his hand, Jeremiah groaned. “This looks familiar” Jeremiah commented as he observed the phone which he was sure that he had seen before. Wanting to confirm his suspicions, Jeremiah pressed the power button and what he saw on the Lock Screen proved his thoughts. He had gotten a good look at David’s phone back at the castle when David showed him the button he had wanted to press to call some of the guards to where he was. An action that ended up backfiring on him when the guards sided with Jeremiah instead. Looking at the Lock Screen, Jeremiah saw that as
The Ultimate Mogul Strikes Back! CHAPTER 111
IMPLOSION was a spell that the members of Dark Emblem used to kill their targets quickly and it was the spell Adam loved to use the most. It was to the point that he was known in the entire organization as the fastest when it came to casting it, making him formidable among their ranks, but he had just failed to kill one man twice? What was going on? Both Dean and Adam stared at Jeremiah with curiosity but also concern. Adam and Dean looked at each other then they looked at Jeremiah and with quick speed, they pointed their hands at Jeremiah and cast the IMPLOSION spell. As expected, Adam’s was the first to shoot towards Jeremiah while Dean’s followed a fraction of a second later. No way Jeremiah was going to evade the two of them as it wouldn’t only be insane but also humanly impossible, right? Well, that was the same thing they thought would happen in the welcome ceremony. It would be impossible for the guests not to die from the explosion of the magical Rubix cube, but just li

“How did you do that?!” Adam asked aggressively as he hurriedly turned to Jeremiah. He had never seen a situation where something thrown by someone shattered something as strong as their magical shield. It was inconceivable to even think about but it just happened right in front of his eyes. In less than a minute, Jeremiah had done two things he thought were impossible. Avoid his IMPLOSION and shattered Dean’s shield which was one of the best in Dark Emblem. Jeremiah groaned and said “So you care about your partner? I wouldn’t have expected that emotion to exist in your organization” Adam frowned while Dean caught his breath. “How does it feel when someone you know gets hurt? Doesn’t feel good, does it? Well, tell that to the families of all the people you killed and the guests at the welcome ceremony who you almost killed” said Jeremiah with a tone of disgust in his voice. Immediately, Adam’s eyes widened. “The welcome ceremony? How did you know about that— wait a minute! Wha
The Ultimate Mogul Strikes Back! CHAPTER 113
Seeing Dean’s hand pointed at David and knowing the spell he was threatening to use, Jeremiah pictured the dismembered bodies of the guards he saw outside.He thought about how the same was going to happen to David if he didn’t do what Dean wanted and left with no other choice, he halted his entrance.“Fuck” Jeremiah said under his breath. How was he going to get out of this situation? He wondered.Yes, he was very fast but sadly not fast enough to close the gap between himself and Dean before Dean kills David, so there was no point in trying.He couldn’t risk David’s life like that.“Why are you doing this?” Jeremiah asked.“Unfortunately, the concealment spell is something Adam would have to continuously cast as he and the bride escape, making him unable to defend himself or attack unless he wants you to know where they are, but that’s why I’m here. I’m going to keep you here until they get away” Dean said.Normally, CONCEALMENT is used to hide something stationary as it creates a
The Ultimate Mogul Strikes Back! CHAPTER 114
Turns out Jeremiah had taken a page off of Dean’s book. Distract the enemy and move while they are focused on something else. From the distance between the two of them and Jeremiah’s speed, it would take him a second to get to Dean. Unfortunately, it would only take Dean a second to cast the IMPLOSION spell, so without taking his eyes off Jeremiah while his hand was still pointed at David, Dean cast the spell. After he finished and the destructive energy shot out his hand, Dean smirked victoriously. There was nothing Jeremiah could do to stop David’s death—Dean thought. Unfortunately for him, Jeremiah had already planned ahead, and it was at that moment Dean realized that he was seeing Jeremiah’s face and not the motorcycle helmet anymore. Jeremiah had taken the helmet off before he started dashing towards Dean and David, and once close enough, he threw it towards them. Dean retracted his hand that had shot the IMPLOSION spell at David and went into a defensive stance to prote

Jeremiah looked at Dean and said “Why would I go through the trouble of saving him from you only to turn around and kill him myself? I’m not like you bastards” Jeremiah was disgusted Dean could even ask him such a stupid question. “T-then what did you just do?” Dean stuttered. “What I did was get you fuckers out of his head,” Jeremiah said, then slapped David’s face and he woke up. David gasped as his body sprung up and he started panting. He had just just woken up from being choked, so he needed as much air in his lungs as possible. Seeing David, Dean jolted with a shocked look. “Cousin? What are you doing here? Speaking of here… where are we?” David asked as he tried catching his breath. “You broke the spell?” Dean mumbled, utterly shocked as he saw David acting normally. He knew that a way to get rid of the mind control was to knock the victim out, and then when they woke up, they would go back to normal again, but he didn’t think Jeremiah would do that. Did Jeremiah k

“Now that I don’t have to worry about another person’s safety anymore, I can go as hard as I want to. Let’s see how you do with nobody to hide behind” Jeremiah smirked. Dean, who heard that sentence and felt belittled, scoffed. “Don’t think I’m going to make it easy for you. It doesn’t matter if you’re the reincarnation of Crimson, the power dragon or not, I’m not going to go down as easy as you think” “We’ll see about that” Jeremiah replied and with that, the battle started. Dean raised his hands the same way he did when he and Adam were trying to absorb the magical energy they thought David had. His hands were like that of a pastor preaching to a congregation and without wasting a second, he started casting a spell. Watching and reading Dean’s lips from where he stood, Jeremiah saw that what he was saying was different from what he said when he cast IMPLOSION or SHIELD, meaning that whatever he was casting was a different spell. Not knowing what that spell was or what it
The Ultimate Mogul Strikes Back! CHAPTER 117
Jeremiah groaned, annoyed that things had become more challenging than he expected.Who would have thought that Dean was capable of doing something as impressive as changing the trajectory of his spells, turning them into homing missiles basically? Well, he was a mage with a lot of knowledge and experience and a member of the most powerful magic organization in the world, so nothing he did was to be taken as too much of a surprise, but still, this was ridiculous. Good thing Jeremiah had been cautious and waited to see what Dean did before attacking because he could have acted haphazardly and ended up getting hit with a surprise attack that would kill him. Dean pointed his hand at Jeremiah again and the six fireballs shot at him, but unlike last time, Jeremiah knew that just dodging them wasn’t going to be enough. He had to find a different solution.Jeremiah saw the six fireballs flying towards him and just as he was about to dodge, he stopped when he saw them change direction and

The auctioneer wasted no time to open the box but when he tried to do it, he realized that he couldn’t.“What the?” He asked himself, grimacing with confusion. “Maybe I didn’t do it right. Let me try again” He tried to open the box again but like before the lid wouldn’t budge and the auctioneer started to get annoyed.“What’s going on here? Didn’t they say that it wasn’t going to be locked so why can’t I open it?” He complained in a low voice, making sure the microphone attached to his ear couldn’t pick up what he was saying, then he looked at the bidders who were starting to have concerned expressions.The auctioneer could see the bidders' already minimal interest in the mystery item gradually vanish, which lit a spark in him to fix the situation as quickly as possible.“Hey,” the auctioneer turned his head to the left and called to the staff who had given him the box. “Yes, sir?” The staff shifted closer to the auctioneer."I remember vividly being told that the freaking box would
CHAPTER 292
Jeremiah had his hand on his chin.He focused on what was under the cloth and tried using his heightened senses to see if he could figure out anything about it besides the fact that it was a box. With his hearing, which was greater than a bat’s, Jeremiah had what could only be described as radar— the type used in science fiction movies to know exactly what something was just by sound alone.“Huh?” Jeremiah said after he had tried using his radar as best as he could but realized that it wasn’t working.Well, not that it wasn’t working as he could picture everything else in the area that wasn’t in his field of vision with the radar but the item underneath the cloth that was to be auctioned was undeterminable.‘What’s this? Why can’t my senses pick up anything?’ Jeremiah asked himself, finding it very strange.He focused even harder, using the fullest range of his radar, which allowed him to have what could only be called omniscience as he could perceive everything in the room, but stil
CHAPTER 291
“For the next item, I have to inform everyone that there’s a little treat or should I say catch to it as that’s the correct term to use here,” The auctioneer said and the other bidders groaned in confusion as complaints flew everywhereUsually, all the rules are given at the start of the auction so why was the auctioneer trying to bring something new now? The bidders wondered and weren’t appreciative of what was happening.“What exactly do you mean by that?” One of the other bidders asked just as the worker with the item to be auctioned stepped forward.“First of all Master Xavier, I know that this is very unconventional but the client that provided us with this item explicitly instructed that we should start the bidding price at ten million dollars. The second thing they requested is that we give it to the first person who makes a bid for it which means that there isn’t going to be a competition for who can pay the most as whoever raises their paddle first wins the item. We are also
CHAPTER 290
All the other bidders squeezed their paddles furiously and growled at the disrespect they just received. How dare a young lady like Martha talk to elderly men who ranged from a few years to some decades older than her like that?Besides Jeremiah, she was the youngest person in the room but at the same time, she had the gull to speak so confidently.Was she looking down on them just because her master spent thirty million dollars on a quill? How Ludacris of her to have this level of hubris they thought.They will show her what they are made of… was what they all had in mind as they turned away from her to face the auctioneer and went ahead to make their counteroffers.Each counteroffer was with an addition of one to three million dollars and every time someone counter-offered, the auctioneer would state Andrew’s automatic counteroffer of an additional five hundred thousand dollars to the last called amount. Anytime he does that, the other bidders would look at Martha to see if she has
CHAPTER 289
“Mister Andrew, your quill will be waiting to be collected immediately after the auction or delivered to anywhere of your choice if you don’t want to leave with it yourself. Just have your assistant provide us with a location and our company will bring it to you as soon as possible” The auctioneer said while looking at Andrew and Martha“Thank you” Andrew replied.The auctioneer faced the rest of the audience and said “That was just the start of our extremely thrilling and captivating auction so if you missed achieving that prize then do not fret, I have more impressive items behind me as you can rightfully see. With that being said, please bring forth the next item”Immediately after the auctioneer finished calling for the next item, the worker with a long box came forward and then held it up for the auctioneer who opened it and showed that it was a sword inside.This sword was known as the sharpest sword in the entire world. It had a black handle with gold patterns on it. There was
CHAPTER 288
Everyone who stared at Martha wondered what master she could be talking about but there were only two options which were Jeremiah or the man sitting next to him.To them, it couldn’t have been Jeremiah because for one thing, they saw him come into the auction alone and secondly, he didn’t have the charisma that matched someone like Martha.That only left Andrew who they looked at, gracefully sitting with his legs crossed and busy looking bored instead of focusing on the auction.Yes, Andrew looked like someone who would be Martha’s master but that raised a good question; why was Jeremiah sitting between her and Andrew?Just then, some of the bidders who remembered Jeremiah and Martha switching seats and Jeremiah speaking with Andrew spoke, making those who hadn’t been paying attention to the three realize what had happened, providing an answer to their question.The auctioneer, who was just as shocked as everyone to hear such a price jump that went almost three times the original firs
CHAPTER 287
“The first thing my mentor told me was that somewhere out there in the world there’s always going to be someone better than you in some and maybe even all regards. You just have to behave with that thought in mind, always. The second thing he told me is, don’t let what you already know be the wall that you stand on to show your confidence because someone else can come around and turn you into Jericho. An example of that is what Martha just did for you. Take these two lessons and grow my friend” Andrew said and Jeremiah’s face became serious.‘Those things sound somewhat similar to what Obadiah told me when he started training me in magic. What a weird coincidence. Whoever Andrew’s mentor is, I’m sure he is a really cool person’ Jeremiah thought.Jeremiah nodded “Alright sir, I’ll engrave all the lessons I’ve learned from the both of you to heart and arrange my next steps accordingly,” he said.Andrew and Martha smiled, happy to have imparted such great lessons to someone like Jeremiah
CHAPTER 286
“So who are these associates of yours that told you about—?“ Jeremiah asked but Andrew cut him off with a hand gesture that said he should stop talking.“Hush for a moment. You might miss something important when it eventually comes up so no more talking. You are here to bid like everyone else so pay attention” Andrew said, pointing at the auctioneer before ending his and Jeremiah’s handshake. He then turned his entire body towards the podium, resting his back on his chair, and paid attention.Jeremiah, who found figuring out the identity of Andrew’s associates just as important as anything the auctioneer was going to say or bring out because the way Andrew dismissed his question seemed kind of suspicious— like he was trying to hide that information— didn’t want to just give up having his questions answered like that.He also only wanted the magical items that would be brought out among the many items being auctioned— which he had a feeling would be among the last items, so he felt l
CHAPTER 285
"Look, they have just finished addressing everyone and giving the rules for the auction like they always do so it's time to start," Andrew said to Jeremiah, letting him know what was going on because it was his first auction.He then looked at Jeremiah and said "I hope I and Martha didn't distract you from learning the rules seeing as this is your first auction and you needed to know every rule to participate properly" Jeremiah shrugged "Honestly, I got distracted but I catch on quickly. I'll just watch everyone else and you to know what to do when it gets to something I want," he said.Andrew smirked, looking impressed."A smart young man. I like that. Well, since we're going to keep talking through the duration of this auction, I guess it’s only appropriate for us to introduce ourselves. My name is Andrew Loch, and she is my longest friend, assistant, and non-romantic partner, Martha" Andrew said then shifted his gaze to Martha, hinting that she greets Johnathan.Martha turned to J
