The Unexpected Ultimacy Chapter 1
It was 8:30 PM at Skyline Restaurant. Michael Quinn, a waiter, was seen before a simply decorated table in the regular dining area of the restaurant.He looked so stressed and tired, with his uniform drenched in sweat. This was because the day's shift had been so hectic for him.Despite how tired he was, he still took the time to decorate a table to celebrate his girlfriend's birthday.He made this warm arrangement as a surprise for his girlfriend, Hannah Walmer.Michael and Hannah had been dating since their last year at university. Since then, he had wished to celebrate her birthday elaborately. Unfortunately, his account balance had never allowed him to do so.However, Michael had worked hard to make today different.As one of the lowest-paid waiters at Skyline Restaurant, he was able to make this day exceptional by spending all his savings.Michael rose to his feet, gazing at his beautiful handiwork. A soft smile appeared on his tired face, yet he felt fulfilled.The table was cov

All attention fell on Michael, their faces contoured in surprise."What's going on here, Hannah?! What are you doing with this spoiled brat?!" Michael thundered, gritting his teeth. His hands were clenched into fists.Austin's face changed instantly, and he jumped to his feet in anger."How dare you, a poor thing, cause trouble here? Where has a pauper like you borrowed the courage?!""I have no business with you, spoiled brat. Allow my girlfriend to answer my question. Do not intimidate her!" Michael's eyes were very red with rage."Hahaha! Even the poor long for good things. What rubbish?!" Austin sneered and then turned to Hannah."Babe, do you know this low-life?"Hannah looked exposed as her eyes blinked twice. "I'm sorry, Honey. I never told you about him. He used to be my boyfriend, but I have broken up with him."Michael's heart sank in his stomach, and his voice cracked. "We have been dating for three years. We even had quality time together last night. So, what are you talki

The rain continued to pour heavily, beating down on Michael, yet he wasn't feeling it. The pain of rejection and humiliation engulfed him.He stared at the ground beneath him, and a sad smile appeared on his face."I've lived all my life in pain and poverty. I will find peace down here," Michael's voice cracked.He was heartbroken and wished his parents had been rich too. He could have lived off his inheritance.He snapped his left hand to his chest, grabbing the only inheritance his parents left for him: a jade pendant.He pulled at it, and the necklace broke off. He clutched the jade pendant tightly in his palm.He remembered what his mother had told him about the pendant: "With this pendant, your potential is limitless."Michael swallowed a forceful lump down his throat and felt his mother's remark about the pendant was just a fallacy.Michael opened his hand, gazing at the jade pendant. "Whether you're worthy or not, today will be the end of everything."The tears he had been hold

After a few hours, the day became brighter. Michael was very far asleep when his phone began to ring over and over. After several attempts, the caller stopped calling.The sun was already burning hot when he finally woke up. He stretched his body, yawning when his phone began to ring again.With half-sleepy eyes, he swiped the blinded screen of his phone and picked up the call."Where the fvck are you, loser? Why haven't you resumed work by this time of day?!" A very rough and angry voice wailed before ending the call.The sleep in Michael's eyes wiped away right away, realizing it was Jack Harris, the manager of Skyline Restaurant. He glanced at the wall clock and discovered it was already past twelve.He jumped out of bed, trying to prepare, and sprinted to Skyline.He hurriedly searched for his uniform before he found it soaked and stinking where he had kept it last night."Oh, shit!!" He cursed, running out of his room.In less than twenty minutes, Michael arrived at Skyline.As s

Vivian's face widened in panic. She was so afraid that Michael would be injured because he wanted to defend her.She would put a stop to the attack instantly if she had the capacity. Unfortunately, time can never be retrieved.Meanwhile, Michael's eyes closed shut, and he heard the robotic voice.[Make a wish and consider it granted in a millisecond.]Michael remembered everything that happened last night and whispered, "I wish to become the greatest martial artist in the world."Ding!In a flash, the hologram appeared, and he could see it in his mind.[Congratulations, Michael Quinn. You're now the greatest martial artist in the world.]Michael felt a surge of energy flow into his memory. Numerous fighting techniques were popping up in his mind.Then his eyes opened wide, grabbing Blade's fist with ease. "You made a wrong move." Michael spat on his face before breaking his wrist."Arghh!!" Blade groaned as his wrist made a cracking sound. "Bam!" Michael's punch landed hard on his che

"This kid is a clown! All his outfits aren't even worth ten dollars. Does he even know what ten million dollars is?" "I think you should go back to your sleep because this can only happen in your nightmares." The onlookers were making comments, including Michael's colleagues. Vivian was feeling a little awkward. She knew Michael's worth and even his background. There's no doubt that it might cost him his entire life before he could make just ten thousand dollars. Where would he find ten million dollars then? This time, she felt she had been carried away by Michael's confidence. "Michael, you do want to make the payment?" Vivian asked as she returned to reality. "Of course, yes. Take the card and proceed with the transaction." Michael's voice remained calm and relaxed. With doubt, Vivian collected the card. The machine for bigger transactions was provided. Vivian inputted the amount and swiped the card. Unfortunately, the machine signaled a red light, declining the transactio

A stare of admiration fell on Michael from every angle. They wondered why a billionaire like him chose to disguise himself by wearing cheap clothes. Jack's hoes moved away from him, finding him disgusting. They all wished they could lure Michael into their arms and make him theirs. Vivian's phone beeped, and she hurriedly checked it. The gorgeous woman nearly fainted when she discovered she had just received ten million dollars in her account. She only followed her instinct to stay behind Michael. She never thought that it would bring such a fortune into her life. This time, all the workers who had been mocking Michael fell to their knees, asking for forgiveness. The guards who had wanted to fight him earlier also joined. Jack Harris only used them for his foolishness; turning against him wouldn't be a bad idea. Moreover, Michael seemed like an oriented leader. He wasn't just a skillful fighter; he was also a secret billionaire. "Rise, I forgive you all. But none of you m

It was as if they had just hit a rock. They wondered how a young guy could be so strong. They all rushed to their feet, staring at Michael as though they had just seen a ghost. "Dude, hurry up and get out of here before things turn south for you," one of the gangsters threatened again. He hadn't finished his words before one of them threw an unexpected kick at Michael. The lad grabbed the gangster's leg midway and flung him at his team. "Argh!" they all groaned as their bodies hit the floor. As soon as they saw Michael walking toward them with a clenched fist, they all hurried to their feet and fled the warehouse. "Who is this beast?!" one of them shouted as they rushed into their vehicle and drove away. Michael moved closer to the young lady and helped her unconscious body up. He rested her back on his lap, gazing at her pale face. The effect of the drug made the lady's face look very pale and numb. Then Michael thought about how he could help her. He closed his eyes and whis

Ding![Ten gems deducted!][Wish granted!]In a flash, Zak's camouflage body began a rapid spin in place, and the air blew Michael away, causing him to land on his back."What's going on?! Somebody help me!" Zak shouted as his voice echoed through the air.The wizard couldn't fathom what had led him to this sudden, nonstop spin.This time, Michael got to his feet, watching the wizard in his helpless situation. He never had any intention of hurting the man in the beginning; all that mattered to him was the protection mirror.However, given the clash between the duo, it was no surprise that Zak was determined to send Michael to his grave.It was great luck for Michael that he was able to put his enemy in his place.If only Michael had known where the wizard had kept the mirror, he would have gone for it right away. This was because, as soon as the air blew him away, he felt his spiritual energy awakening slightly.Zak, who had been crying for help, suddenly accepted the truth that no on

Meanwhile, Michael was still in the darkroom, trying his best to escape the difficult situation he was in.At that moment, not only was the heat in the room becoming more intense, but his throat was seriously drying out, and he nearly coughed up blood.This left him in a completely uncomfortable situation, with his life hanging by a thread.It was clear that Zak wasn't taking it lightly with Michael. He wanted him dead, and in a horrible way.As Michael continued to wander around the room, trying harder to find a means of exit, he accidentally stepped on a pressure-sensitive switch on the floor.Suddenly, a part of the wall shifted slightly, and a little light entered the room.Michael's brows raised slightly in surprise as he couldn't discern the reason behind the sudden shift.He was devastated, as his clothes were already soaked with sweat, but he couldn't give up at such a dangerous moment.Michael gasped loudly as he turned to try passing through the shifted wall, hoping it would

After the dancing session with Sage, an arrangement was made for refreshments. The elderly man was invited to the dining table, sitting next to the gang leader and his lover."You requested some fun earlier. Here's some for you." The gang leader said to Sage, pointing at the bottles of wine and other hard liquor on the table.Sage responded with a gentle smile as he maintained his drunken act. "Haha! What a good day to be alive! Thank you for the warm treatment."The gang leader waved his hand in the air and stated genuinely, "Mammie deserves the gratitude. If not for her, there's a high chance you would be in a pool of blood by now."The gang leader flashed a wicked smile at Sage before turning a calm gaze at his lover sitting next to him.At that moment, the elderly man felt a shift in his heart. He couldn't deny the truth behind the gang leader's remark.If it weren't for Fiona, the ruthless gang leader would have blown Sage's head off with his gun.Given that, the elderly man reco

A sudden pause took over the room immediately.Michael glanced around but couldn't find any trace of the wizard. Then, he taunted, "Isn't it early for you to go behind the veil now, Zak? The show hasn't even started yet."His voice was a mix of seriousness and ridicule. However, all he got in response was total silence.He turned to look around quickly, anticipating the wizard's attack, but nothing happened.Just then, Michael stayed in place, paying attention to the direction where Zak had fallen. Then, he began to hear the sound of blood dripping on the floor.That gave him a glimpse into the reason why the wizard had suddenly disappeared. Zak had hidden himself in the darkness as he lost his strength so quickly.His strength drained away rapidly due to his injury and loss of blood.Michael was about to head in the direction of the sound when the wizard's terrifying voice suddenly echoed, "There's nothing in this world that can save you from visiting your grave today. However, getti

The room became illuminated instantly as the wizard appeared. It became clearer to Michael that the deep darkness in the room was all Zak's doing.Having a glance at what the wizard looked like, Michael felt a little concerned as he was still battling with the strike that had attacked him unexpectedly. His whole body was hot from within, to the point that his skin nearly burned away.Michael was staring at Zak at that moment, trying to understand whether he should be called a human being or an animal.This was because he had the shape of a human, while his face closely resembled that of an elephant. His nose was ridiculously long, and his ears nearly touched his shoulders. Moreover, he had two long horns on his head, making his kind of creature strange.Michael slowly stepped backward as the pain of the strike sank deeper inside him. He clenched his fists, aiming to gather his spiritual strength to help himself.However, Zak never let him be. The scary wizard walked closer to him, add

Michael hurried to his feet as the scary voice echoed. He glanced around the dark room, but he couldn't see a thing.The room was so dark that he couldn't even see his palms.He was trying to confirm if he was hallucinating. Probably, his mind was playing tricks on him due to the strange voices he had heard earlier before entering the building.The only thing he could note was an awful smell in the room. Just then, the previous voice came up again without revealing the direction of its owner."Those who trespassed into Zak's abode in the past never made it out of here. Now, you can have a bite of the pie, too."Instantly, a bolt of frightening lightning struck the dark room but couldn't harm Michael as he was quickly enclosed in a purplish transparent sphere.His eyes opened wide with concern as the lightning gave him a glimpse of what the room looked like.He felt a shift in his heart as his eyes flashed at several dried and decayed human skeletons lying on the ground.This time, Mic

Steelheart was momentarily stunned. He wondered how someone could be so selfless, laying down his life for the sake of his city.Before Steelheart could emerge from his train of thought, Michael had headed into the scary forest.Paying attention to the quiet surroundings, the guard commander stood more alert against any forthcoming troubles.Meanwhile, inside the thick forest, Michael had only walked a short distance when he suddenly noticed something strange.He discovered that he had been walking in the same spot for the past few minutes.He realized this after paying attention to his surroundings and found that he had been seeing the same trees over and over."What's going on?" Michael whispered to himself and tried another route in the forest.However, despite the attempt, the problem persisted. This time, he had to consult his inner knowledge to find a solution to the issue at hand.Browsing through his knowledge, Michael found that the forest was in this state because it was loc

Michael was mind-blown and wondered how she got to be in the midst of the deadly group. Not only was she in their midst, but she was also the gang leader's lover.After Fiona left Skyline Restaurant that night, Michael tried hard to reach her, but all his efforts were to no avail.Finding her among the gangsters now made him feel worried and concerned.Even though he had no idea how Fiona came to be with Don Leonardo's men, he felt it was against her will.This time, his mind went straight to no one else but Jack Harris, who used her as a weapon against Skyline Restaurant.After the incident that occurred at Skyline Restaurant that night, Vivian disclosed to Michael why Fiona had to comply with Jack Harris's orders to carry out his scheme against the restaurant.It turns out that Jack Harris had trickily taken a nude picture of Fiona when she was in the changing room. Ever since then, he had always pressured Fiona to sleep with him or risk having her nude leaked on the Internet.He al

A quick pause took over the atmosphere immediately.The gang leader's face became ugly, and he sniffed, shifting his gaze to the lady next to him while his gun was still pointed at Sage."Why do you think so, Mammie? What do you observe?" the gang leader asked.The lady chuckled, taking a thorough look at Sage, who had turned ice cold on his feet. "Taking a look at his bottle of local liquor says a lot about him. Also, take a look at his outfit..."The lady hadn't concluded her statement when the crowd's gaze fell on the elderly man's cowboy outfit, and they burst into roaring laughter."What the f***?! Hahaha!""Laughing my f***ing ass off!"The crowd continued to make tons of surprising comments while Sage remained frozen on his feet.Nothing was funny to him at that moment. The sight of the gun before him had already made him lose his soul even before his death.Just then, wide laughter suddenly appeared on the gang leader's face as his eyes traveled from the elderly man's shirt to
