The Ultimate Mogul Strikes Back! CHAPTER 24
“Who the hell are you?!” Jeremiah turned around to face the man in the changing room with him. He saw that the man was a staff member of the store and after a quick scan, he realized that the door the man had just walked out of led to the restroom and, because he had a mop and a bucket in his hands, it meant that he had just finished cleaning it. Jeremiah looked at the man’s name tag and saw the name Brad. Brad looked at Jeremiah from head to toe, and he sneered with disgust. He put the mop into the bucket and said “I asked you a question, so are you deaf and can’t hear me or are you just too retarded to form an answer?” “I was going to tell you my name, but not after you'd spoken to me like that,” Jeremiah frowned. He didn’t appreciate Brad’s tone of voice and his choice of words. Brad, on the other hand, scoffed. “Such big words coming from a—“ Brad said, then noticed the suit on the couch beside Jeremiah. “Wait a minute! Is that the Gustav limited edition Broque su

“What’s going on here—?” Brad asked but was cut off by a punch so strong it sent a tooth flying out of his mouth and almost knocked him out. The bodyguards dragged Rogan and Brad to Kingston, who stood beside Jeremiah, then they forced the two workers of the store to go on their knees. Looking at how terrible the situation he was in was, Rogan’s heart started pounding in his chest like it was about to explode. “Mister Kingston, I sincerely apologize for—“ “Shut your mouth,” Kingston said coldly, and Rogan held his mouth. “Sir, what’s going on? Who are these people?” Brad asked, feeling so much pain in his mouth that was bleeding seriously. “You idiot. You just doomed us both!” Rogan glared at Brad. If stares could kill, Brad would have been dead and buried by then. “I’ve doomed us both? But what did I do—?” Brad asked, but Kingston cut him off. “I didn’t quite hear what you said when you talked about the young master. What did you call him again?” Kingston asked. B

Just as Jeremiah was halfway done showering, he suddenly heard the changing room door open.“It’s me, Mister Jeremiah. I’ve come with the clothes you’re going to wear in place of the one that got ruined by my staff and the water he poured you. I brought a few which I’ll be leaving on the couch, so when you’re done cleaning up, give them a try and pick the one you want after you’ve checked out the suit I also left on the couch” Rogan said as he dropped the clothes on the couch like he said. He walked over to the restroom door and said “As for the body towel, it’s right here on the doorknob so you can easily reach for it when you’re done showering”Rogan hung the hundred percent pure cotton white towel on the knob and made sure it wouldn’t fall even when Jeremiah twisted the knob to open the door. Because of how great and comfortable the towel was, the selling price was two hundred dollars, but here was Jeremiah being given for a one-time use only.That just shows how much effort Roga

The moment Jeremiah and his entourage came out of the High Fashion Emporium, the people on the road who had been waiting for him to come out so they could get a view of his identity, scrambled and stretched their necks trying to get a glimpse of his face. Because they had missed the opportunity to look at him when he entered the store, they were going to make sure they made up for that and do it now. Their phones and cameras were already set to take a barrage of photos and videos the moment they saw him. Unfortunately, the moment they tried to find Jeremiah amongst the people who came out of the store, they were met with some serious challenges. The first challenge was the same one they faced last time which was that the cars and the entourage outside the store blocked their view. Silver had taken charge immediately after Kingston went inside the store with Jeremiah and she organized the remaining members of the convoy to make sure that none of the hungry bystanders got the

He proceeded to enjoy the drive until finally, they arrived at the airport and parked in front of the private jet that had been designated for the journey to meet his father. Standing by the jet and waiting for Jeremiah’s arrival were the pilot and a couple of beautiful flight attendants whose uniforms accentuated their figures perfectly. Their faces were also very beautiful, each flight attendant looking like she could walk an international runway The driver of the middle jeep and the captain of the bodyguards who was in the passenger seat both came out of the car and opened the backseat doors for Jeremiah and Kingston while everyone in the convoy came down to bid them goodbye. Jeremiah and Kingston came out of the car then, along with the Captain of the bodyguards who carried Jeremiah’s suit, they approached the pilot and the flight attendants who were all on one knee with their heads bowed to Jeremiah. “Good morning, Young Master Jeremiah. My name is Adam Gale and I’ll be

A couple of minutes later, the jet landed in the hangar and the trio, Jeremiah, Kingston, and his personal guard, Steven, went down. A security detail and a convoy far greater than the one that had picked Jeremiah from his apartment had already been waiting for their arrival.Everyone in the convoy greeted Kingston and when they were informed of who Jeremiah was, they went on their knees and did the usual greeting which Jeremiah accepted, and then told them to stand up.After that, they all entered the cars and drove away. The moment they got to the main roads and drove through populated areas, Jeremiah noticed that the people who saw the convoy all had happy expressions on their faces as they waved at the convoy. It was like they recognized the convoy, and who it belonged to, and were happy to see it pass by.That sight made Jeremiah realize how loved his family must be to garner such reactions, because even the president of a country wouldn’t get such a magnanimous amount of love

Elizabeth took Jeremiah upstairs.“Your room, young master,” Elizabeth said as she opened the door to Jeremiah’s room, and when he saw the inside, his eyes widened so much that they almost came out of their sockets. Jeremiah walked in first, then she followed, leaving the door open while Jeremiah looked in awe at how wonderful the room was. “This is only a temporary arrangement. If I had been informed before your arrival, I would have pulled out all the stops to make sure you got an even bigger and better room, but please manage this young master,” Elizabeth said, and Jeremiah looked at her with shock.“What is it, young master?” She asked.Jeremiah chuckled.“If you knew where I am coming from, you wouldn’t have said what you just did. This room is amazing” Jeremiah said, and the headmaid blushed. “By the way, my name is Jeremiah. If you’re going to keep calling me Young Master, then you should at least know my actual name too,” Jeremiah said, as he walked deeper into the room to

Inside the laundry room where Lynette was busy steaming the suit she was given to prepare for Jeremiah’s meeting with his father, a bunch of maids came in and approached her. There were four of them, and they all looked relieved like they had been searching for her.“Is it true?” One of the maids asked.“Is what true?” Lynette replied, not taking a second’s break to give the maids around her attention as her focus remained on the task she was given.“You know what we’re talking about. That’s stuff. Is that stuff true?” The second maid asked.Lynette groaned in confusion.“I honestly have no idea what any of you guys are talking about, so unless you go ahead and spit it out, I’m going to remain clueless” Lynette retorted.“Come on, Lynette. Don’t start playing dumb with us now. We really want to know” said one of the maids as she grabbed Lynette’s hand that held the steamer.Because Lynette couldn’t continue steaming the suit thanks to the maid who held her hand, she finally stopped w

“Good day everyone,” Jeremiah said and the entire arena went silent.Everyone paid attention to what he was about to say to them. “All I see are handsome and beautiful young people striving for academic excellence and bright futures. Though it’s been a couple of years since I was in the same position as the rest of you, in a way giving me the experience and wisdom to make this speech, I want you all to know that with dedication, perseverance, and hard work you will all make it through and forge the future you desire and deserve. I’ve watched the entire ceremony, seen what you’ve all done and all I can say is how honored I am to be in the presence of each and every one of you. Good luck with whatever paths you’ve decided to forgo and I pray God sees you through. As for the academic staff, you all should be proud of yourselves for raising such wonderful students. And finally, the student Union, all I have to say is that you’ve done well as this celebration wouldn’t have been half as su
CHAPTER 232
The event in question was the matriculation ceremony for the first-year students of the college and at the bottom of the Arena were the first-year students all wearing their matriculation gowns. The announcer/host took the stage and welcomed the important members of the faculty like the chancellor, vice chancellor, professors, and some lecturers. On one side of the Arena were members of the Student Union and the announcer greeted them too— giving a special shout-out to the Student Union President who was celebrated for being the best president so far. Once he had greeted everyone he wanted to from the school, the announcer gestured in the direction of the ultra VIP section where Jeremiah was and he said “Everyone, please give a round of applause for the future King of Crimson Fall, Master Jeremiah Garrick!”Immediately, everyone faced the ultra VIP section with widened eyes and looks of utter shock. They couldn’t believe what they had just heard. The future king of Crimson Fall? J
CHAPTER 231
The drive continued, going through the college until they arrived at the Chancellor’s office which surprised Jeremiah because he didn’t know that was their destination.He had questions as to what they were doing there. However, seeing some people already waiting outside for them made him realize why they had gone there. The people in question were the Chancellor, the vice-chancellor, and the chancellor’s secretary. Steven came out of the car and opened the back door for Lynette while Jeremiah got off his motorcycle and went to join them. Because of who had more power and authority in that gathering, the Chancellor and his people hurriedly approached Jeremiah and his and bowed their heads.“You must be the king’s son, young master Jeremiah” the chancellor greeted Jeremiah.“Yes, I am. Thank you and you can raise your heads now” Jeremiah said and the three did just that. On their faces were elated expressions as even with how professional they were, it was difficult to hide how hap
CHAPTER 230
Jeremiah came out of the castle with Lynette and to his surprise saw the king’s convoy already waiting for him. Also waiting for him were Reginald, Kingston, Elizabeth, and her protégé, Christabel, who all stood close to the cars.“Young master” Kingston, Elizabeth, and Christabel greeted. “Good morning, guys” Jeremiah greeted as he and Lynette walked down the steps.“What’s all this?” Jeremiah asked— staring at the convoy of cars and all the guards standing by them.“Are you planning on going somewhere, Dad?” Jeremiah asked Reginald. The king chuckled. “No I’m not and they are not here for me”“They’re not? Who are they here for then?” Jeremiah grimaced.“They are here for you,” Reginald said and Jeremiah’s eyes widened “They will be taking you to the college since you’ll be representing me”Jeremiah looked at the convoy and serious-looking guards once more and he groaned.“Is anything the matter, son?” The king asked— his eyebrows furrowed with confusion. Why did it seem like J
CHAPTER 229
A couple of minutes later, Jeremiah was standing in front of his father’s bedroom door.He took a deep breath and sighed— preparing himself for what he was about to say to his father because he knew just how heartbroken the king would be.When he was ready, he knocked.“Dad, it's me,” Jeremiah said, not waiting to be asked who was knocking on the door.“Come on in, son. The door is open” Reginald said excitedly.This was the first time his son was visiting him in his chambers as the last time he was there was after barely surviving a bomb blast to the chest. So, it was every reason to be happy. Jeremiah, who felt bad about his father’s excitement, opened the door.“How’s it going, son?” Reginald asked as Jeremiah entered the room. “Everything is alright, Dad. I just wanted to talk to you about something” Jeremiah replied as he closed the door and walked over to the couch where Reginald was seated. The curious king groaned.“No problem son. But first, please take a seat” Reginald sa
CHAPTER 228
Once they got to the castle, the first person Jeremiah saw was Christabel.“Young master!” The maid bowed her head. The memo about Jeremiah not wanting to be called “My Lord” or “Lord Crimson” when spoken to had passed around the estate, so everyone who saw him addressed him as “Young Master”“How was your training?” Christabel asked.“It was fine. Finished a lot sooner than expected” Jeremiah replied as Christabel quickly greeted Obadiah who was right beside him. “That’s great to hear. You really must be an excellent learner” Christabel smiled and Jeremiah, who always appreciated the compliment, chuckled. “What were you about to do?” He asked her. “Nothing at all. I was just walking around, hoping that I would run into you” she blushed.Jeremiah raised a curious brow.“Any reason why you wanted to run into me?” He asked, still oblivious to her feelings towards him. Jeremiah had thought that the interest Christabel showed him when they first met was a result of Headmaid Elizabeth
CHAPTER 227
Jeremiah repeated the imprint spell wordlessly, making sure he imprinted squishiness to the pebble in his hand.Watching closely, Obadiah observed that there was no ounce of mana spoilage, as expected, showing how much Jeremiah had grown as a mage in just the span of an hour.In fact, Jeremiah had improved so much so quickly that the shaman couldn’t help but feel amazed— making him wonder if Jeremiah was the fastest mage to learn and improve their magic in the history of mankind.Jeremiah finally finished the spell with a calm exhale. “Alright, young master. Let’s see if it worked” Obadiah said. Jeremiah nodded then raised the pebble to a good height— holding it between his thumb and index fingers just as how Obadiah had done before— then he gently applied pressure.Without putting up a fight, the pebble compressed into itself and a proud smirk appeared on Jeremiah’s lips. “Congratulations, young master, you’ve mastered the basic form of the imprint spell.” Obadiah said.The point
CHAPTER 226
Obadiah couldn’t believe what he had just witnessed.Did Jeremiah really just cast a spell without reciting the words? Which in the world of magic was known as a wordless spell.For years, mages had made fun of movies, shows, and books for inventing the idea of wordless spells because to them it was impossible to achieve the feeling necessary for casting a particular spell without reciting first the words. It was as if a mage’s body—capable of performing a feat as inconceivable as magic—was still limited by the need for words to activate it.So, for Jeremiah, a complete novice, to be able to accomplish what every other mage in the history of mankind couldn’t made Obadiah feel like it was a dream."Obadiah quickly walked up to Jeremiah to get a closer look while the young master went down to pick up the pebble he had just imprinted on. Do it again, young master," Obadiah said, wanting Jeremiah to drop the pebble once more so he could see up close whether the spell had truly worked or
CHAPTER 225
Jeremiah looked around for a pebble he could use to do the Imprint spell and soon enough he found one.It was the same size and nearly the same shape as the one Obadiah had used in his earlier example— which he had purposely chosen because he didn’t want an excuse for why he failed the spell to be because of something as silly as the build of the pebble.He walked over to where it was and picked it up.Seeing the pebble from the distance, Obadiah said “That’s a good one, young master.”“Thank you, teacher” Jeremiah smirked and then returned to where he used to stand— at which time Obadiah had already found another pebble to use and teach Jeremiah the spell properly.“Do you remember the spell I used to make the imprint, young master?” Obadiah asked. Jeremiah shook his head.“Sorry, teacher. I was confused about what you were doing so I didn’t pay attention until it was too late. Please show me again” He said bashfully.Obadiah smiled.“It’s fine, young master. That’s what I’m here fo
