The Ultimate Mogul Strikes Back! CHAPTER 115
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

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 Ultimate Mogul Strikes Back! CHAPTER 118
The way Jeremiah held Dean up by his neck— his toes barely touching the floor— the mage started suffocating. However, his ego wouldn’t let him beg Jeremiah to let him go. Instead, he tried to take advantage of the fact that he and Jeremiah were so close to try and attack Jeremiah again. Dean reached into his pocket for a knife, while also using all his willpower to retain consciousness, and he tried to stab Jeremiah.Unfortunately for him, Jeremiah was just too fast and observant to be taken down like that. He saw Dean reaching into his pocket for something and the moment he pulled out a knife, Jeremiah grabbed his wrist.“Not so fast,” Jeremiah said and started squeezing Dean’s wrist.“Come on. Drop it” Jeremiah instructed, and the pain of his hand being crushed plus the fact that he was about to pass out forced Dean to let go of the knife.“Good” Jeremiah smirked, then he looked at Dean’s face and continued to wonder what he should do with him. He had promised to kill both him a

He just realized that what Jeremiah said was true and there was no way to escape the plant if Adam hoped to continue concealing himself and Lynette. If he wanted to escape, then he would have to do so without Lynette, but because of how important their mission was, Adam wouldn’t do that, so it was only a matter of time until he died at the hands of Jeremiah. Jeremiah took a deep breath, sighed, and said “Now, it’s time for you to answer my questions. Where are the rest of your members hiding?”Dean, who was expecting that question, frowned.“Not going to answer, I see. Well, I have more fingers to break,” Jeremiah said, then grabbed another finger and snapped it.Dean groaned, doing his best to withstand the pain, while Jeremiah grabbed the next finger and got ready to snap it if he had to.“I said, where are the other members of Dark Emblem hiding?!” Jeremiah asked.“Is that all you’ve got—?“ Dean said, but Jeremiah cut him off by snapping another finger. “Snap all you want, you w

A couple of minutes ago, after David left the room Jeremiah and Dean were in, like Jeremiah instructed, he roamed around the building trying to find the exit.“Why is it so hard to leave this fucking place?!” David complained then, without meaning to, flash-backed to Jeremiah telling him to leave and he smacked his tongue.“That bastard! Telling me what to do like he owns me or something. Who the fuck does he think he’s talking to?!” David clenched his fists “Just because he’s the heir apparent, he thinks he has the right to command me like I’m one of the useless castle servants. Well, just wait until I take that position back.” David smacked his tongue, then he let go of any further thoughts concerning Jeremiah— for the moment at least.“I wonder what happened with the welcome ceremony. Did Benson and the others do their jobs like they were supposed to? Speaking of jobs, that bastard, Desmond, dared to disobey me like that,“ David said, remembering how Desmond had disregarded his or
The Ultimate Mogul Strikes Back! CHAPTER 121
Though he hadn’t seen the exit, he knew that as long as he followed the signs, he would eventually find it and be able to leave the building.With that, he took his first few steps to leave, but then, the memory of Jeremiah telling him to leave flashed in his head again and his anger shot up.All the ass-kissing he had been doing to get on Jeremiah’s good side filled his blood with vitriol and, all of a sudden, the thought he had been having on different parts of his journey in search for the exit entered his mind once more:‘If only Jeremiah wasn’t around’If only Jeremiah wasn’t around, everything would have been fine for him. No fear of missing out on the kingship. No fear of someone else more influential than him telling him what to do. The pride of being the next king and the most influential man in the world. Everything good that he once had but now was shaky because of Jeremiah. If only Jeremiah wasn’t around anymore.“I have to get him out of my way,” David said, and his face

Looking at the lock on the gate, David saw two lights. A blue one and a green one.Using his comprehension skills, he deduced that the blue light was used to indicate when the gate was electrified and the green one was used to know when the gate was locked. Unfortunately, the color of the buttons on the console didn’t match the two lights on the gate as all of them were black, so unless someone had been trained to know what each button did, they’d have to press them to find out.Luckily, there weren’t that many buttons on the console, so it wouldn’t take long for David to press the right ones and accomplish his goal of getting as far away from the area as possible before the plant exploded. David pressed the first button and nothing happened, or so he thought. Turns out that button was meant to shut down the security cameras outside the checkpoint, but because he wasn’t looking for that, he didn’t see it.“Next,” David said, then pressed the second button on the console and this ti

Jeremiah looked at everyone around him, seeing their judgmental faces which matched everything they had been saying about him and he glared at Elizabeth who was the cause of it all. Elizabeth was extremely proud of herself and being able to turn everyone against him. For no justifiable reason, Jeremiah always managed to make her sick to her stomach so getting others to feel the same way she did about him was an achievement in her terrible and mundane life.“What’s going on here?” Jeremiah and everyone heard from behind him and they all turned to look at the person who just spoke.“It’s great that you’re here, madam Deborah,” Elizabeth said, staring past Jeremiah and looking at the woman behind him.“Is that so? Someone should explain what the hell going on here then. Why is the store in such a state?” Deborah said. “This bastard over here came to steal from us and I was just about to call the security to come throw him out like the trash he is,” Elizabeth said, making Deborah shift
CHAPTER 269
Jeremiah groaned in annoyance as Elizabeth was the last person he wanted to see on his trip to a store to get clothes for his late mother’s funeral.‘That’s why the name of this shore sounded so familiar. Mary had told me that Elizabeth worked here some years ago’ Jeremiah thought as he kept staring at the angry saleswoman. “Did you suddenly lose the ability to speak or are you trying to ignore my question?” Elizabeth frowned. Jeremiah exhaled exasperatedly. “If you want to know the answer to that question then maybe you should ask your cousin and not me. I don’t have time for your problems today” Jeremiah said then turned around and was going to walk away. Elizabeth jolted, shocked by Jeremiah’s audacity to think that he could walk away from her without answering her question.The Jeremiah she was used to was a sniveling coward who did everything he could to make his wife happy which included putting up with her and all her family members' bullshit, even at the detriment of his p
CHAPTER 268
The name of the clothing store was Sunray’s Delight and the focus was entirely on women’s clothing which was exactly what he wanted. Jeremiah parked in the front of the store and looked at the sign.He groaned, wondering why the name of the store seemed so familiar— like someone he knew had told him about it before that day. The issue was that he was having a hard time remembering who it was because it either had been a while since he was told about the store or he wasn’t paying much attention when they did.“Whatever” Jeremiah shrugged and got off the motorcycle.If he didn’t remember who told him about the store then it meant that the person and the store weren’t that important.He headed to the store’s entrance, but just as he walked three feet away from his motorcycle, some guy stopped him and asked if he could take a picture with his motorcycle.Jeremiah, who was apprehensive of strangers because of what happened with Eric and Charles looked a little skeptical about interacting
CHAPTER 267
That was the first time since hearing about his mother’s passing that Jeremiah was seeing her.He was too distraught and heartbroken by the news of her death that he hadn’t even gone to see her body the day the unfortunate incident took place— also known as the worst day of his life.Knowing that he was finally going to see the corpse after weeks of shoving it into the back of his mind, Jeremiah had been gathering the confidence and strong mindset for that very moment.However, the sight of his mother, who he loved more than anything in the world, lying cold and lifeless on the morgue’s storage slide table caused tears to run down his eyes.He couldn’t believe that she was actually gone. Nurse Victoria, seeing the droplets of tears that landed on the sliding table the corpse was on, looked at Jeremiah with pity. She placed her hand on his shoulder and with a reassuring voice, said “Don’t worry, Jeremiah. She’s found peace and will be happy with the growth you’ve made since she last
CHAPTER 266
Jeremiah’s next stop on his very important outing was carrying out the first part of a task he had put on hold for close to a month now. It was time to bury his mother after paying thousands of dollars to keep her corpse in the morgue, so his next destination was the hospital. A couple of weeks ago, just after he had started training with Obadiah on how to use magic, Reginald and he had a conversation about retrieving his mother’s corpse from Bakers View and having her buried on the estate.Reginald told him that it was time to have her buried instead of keeping her in a fridge for an extended period of time.After thinking about it, Jeremiah refused the idea, saying it was best to bury her in Bakers View as that was where she spent the latter part of her life before dying. Also, although she and his fake father’s marriage was all a farce meant to keep them hidden from Dark Emblem, it was better she was buried next to him than halfway across the world. Reginald reluctantly agreed,
CHAPTER 265
Charles had known about the fact that a magical item explodes when destroyed because the merchant who he had bought it from told him— more accurately, advised him so he doesn’t foolishly kill himself by messing with the relic. Thinking that Jeremiah didn’t have the knowledge he did, Charles warned Jeremiah about the dangers of destroying the relic when he saw Jeremiah tighten his grip around it.He had witnessed how strong Jeremiah was and had a feeling that although it wasn’t humanly possible, Jeremiah might try and able to destroy the relic by crushing it in his hand— an idea implanted in his mind when he saw Jeremiah tighten his grip on the item. Even if Jeremiah couldn’t crush the relic with his hand, what’s to say he wouldn’t throw it on the ground and try to crush it with his foot? After all, the words Jeremiah said before and right after taking the relic from Charles sounded like that was his intention.It was clear Jeremiah wanted to do something to the relic to stop it from
CHAPTER 264
Jeremiah deactivated the anchoring spell and after checking that all the goons had been taken care of, he looked at Charles whose weird noises drew his attention. His attention was then drawn to what Charles focused on which was some strange looking item in his hand and he grimaced with intrigue. ‘That looks like something that’s made of magic’ Jeremiah thought then he used his senses, which was able to tell the difference between magical items and normal items— just like he did at the welcome ceremony— and he groaned.‘It is a magical item’ Jeremiah thought.Wondering what Charles was trying to do with the item because of the way he was handling it, Jeremiah walked towards where Charles and Eric were standing.“Umm, boss” Eric tapped Charles, who had been so focused on trying to get the item in his hand to work he had stopped paying attention to Jeremiah. “Huh?” Charles said, snapping out of his deep focus and was shocked when he saw Jeremiah walking towards him.Immediately, fea
CHAPTER 263
With his heightened sense of perception, Jeremiah saw all the attackers coming at him in slow motion and exhaled as he got ready to deal with them. He didn’t even bother using magic to handle the situation, thinking of it as overkill for regular humans like them, so he stuck to his fists. He also limited how powerful his attacks were because one strike from him at full power was nothing short of a death sentence to every human in existence. As a matter of fact, a strike from half his strength was enough to kill and that gap was expected to increase the more time passed because with every second that went by the closer he got to regaining his full power from the ring around his finger. Jeremiah treated the twenty goons like how an adult would treat toddlers, using as little strength as possible to subdue them and using their own attack momentum against them. One after the other, he dropped them to the ground, breaking her arms and legs in the process so they couldn’t get up to atta
CHAPTER 262
“My name is Charles Ludwig and your time to pay for what you did to my father and younger brother has come” Charles threatened.Jeremiah was silent for a moment as he pondered his next words then he groaned when he got them. “So your father and brother told you what happened back in Crimson Fall. Did they also tell you just how dumb what you’re trying to do is? You do know who I am, right?” He asked.Charles chuckled cockily and then replied:“If you’re asking me if I know that you’re that man’s son then the answer is yes. I know exactly who you are and you can thank my father for that. My younger brother, Paul was just as shocked as I was when we both found out and he didn’t want to believe it at first but then he thought about it and realized how the pieces fit together”Jeremiah smirked when a thought came to his mind.“That guy, huh? Why don’t you just say the name—?” Jeremiah asked but then froze and widened his eyes as he looked at the goons around Charles “So that’s why. You d
