Oliver also felt it toward his body, the adrenaline rushing through his veins.

But he could still manage it, although he didn’t know exactly what he was controlling.

“Seeing your movements, I know that you’re not just some hired thug,” Oliver muttered, his eyes and voice sharp.

“Light footwork, fast movements, physical combat skills…”

He looked at the man intently, his eyes narrowing as he played with his knife.

“A military, or maybe ex-special forces?”

Instead of answering, the man smirked, yanking down his face mask, revealing a thin scar slashing across his jawline.

“As expected from you, Zero,” the man spoke, his smirk widening. “But do you want to know how I got this scar?”

He stood up properly, removing his bonnet this time, as he looked Oliver in the eye.

“You did that with your fucking knife, Zero,” he said, his voice edged with something darker. “You slashed my jaw, yet you dared not to remember it?”

Hearing those words, Oliver smirked.

    His boss had his brows furrowed. “What do you mean?”“With the intensity of his kick, I almost thought that he wasn’t a human,” the man explained, his voice low.“It’s like he possesses extraordinary strength.”The silence filled the conversation as his boss didn’t answer.However, his boss clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, pondering upon something deeper, something that the man couldn’t decipher.“This is bad. He should be weaker as time went by, not stronger,” his boss said, his voice dangerously low.“What could be triggering him?”“Sir?” the man asked, not being able to follow through his boss’ mumbles.“Nothing.” His boss shook his head. “Is there anything else you noticed about him?”The man didn’t answer immediately as he caressed his chin, his eyes narrowing as he returned to the scenario earlier.“He looks younger,” the man mumbled. “Three years have passed. He should have aged as it was a long time, but he didn’t…”His voice trailed off, not because he didn’t know

    Oliver had booked a penthouse, not to flex his wealth, but because it was the safest, and it was also the room Ryan recommended.Still, he checked every part of that room, whether there were hidden cameras, suspicious things, or even a bomb that could kill him on the spot.“None.” Oliver sighed in relief, seeing that nothing could bring him harm.That was the moment he could finally place his luggage on the side and sit on the edge of the bed, his breath panting.There was still the adrenaline from earlier, and no matter how hard he tried, he still couldn’t get his mind off it, especially with what he shared.Suddenly, his phone rang, which snapped Oliver from his thoughts for a moment.“Ryan,” Oliver spoke upon answering the call.“One of my people informed me that you’re already at the hotel,” Ryan said on the other line, his tone ingratiating yet still authoritative. “How’s the penthouse to your liking?”“It’s great,” Oliver answered, his tone laced with sincerity. “Also safe.

    Rebecca let out a deep sigh. “I just think this is suicide, Oliver.”She added, explaining her words, “You can’t get anything from it. Not brand reputation, money, or influence. Nothing.”Oliver couldn’t help but laugh a little upon hearing her sentence.“No, I’m telling you. It’s not,” Oliver answered, shaking his head although Rebecca couldn’t see him.“Financially, it could look like that. But I have a deeper reason for this acquisition, Rebecca, something that isn’t stupid,” he added, his tone now low and serious.Rebecca blinked in surprise, not expecting the sudden shift in Oliver’s tone.“That’s all I can tell you for now,” Oliver said before Rebecca could even ask a question. “But I promise, you’ll know about all of it soon.”The silence filled their conversation as Rebecca didn’t answer immediately.Her fingers tightened around the pen she hadn’t even realized she was holding, thanks to Oliver for always giving her something to think about.Finally, she exhaled slowly.

  • Zero: God Of Mercenary   Chapter 1: Unfaithful Wife

    Oliver looked a bit rough around the edges.He was wearing a tank top soaked with sweat, his sunburned skin and solid muscles on display.Over his shoulders, he balanced two heavy crates filled with fish, easily over 300 pounds between them. Yet, he moved with an effortless stride.Out of nowhere, a rock flew through the air, landing right by his foot and causing him to pause.It had to be those lazy coworkers of his, who always dumped the hardest jobs on him.Before he could spot the culprit, the market boss, Anthony, roared out from across the way.“Oliver! You think I pay you to slack off during work hours?”Yep, Oliver couldn’t even deserver a minute to catch his breath. To Anthony, he was no more than a workhorse.And it wasn’t just Anthony—everyone in town saw him the same way.For two reasons: First, he was an outsider.Second, the real kicker, he’d married the town’s richest beauty, Trisha Henverton.She wasn’t from some grand family, but around here, she was still a step above

    The woman’s voice was polite but firm.Beneath it all, there was an undeniable excitement.Clearly, she was very, very happy to see Oliver.But Oliver wasn’t paying her much attention. He thought she must be joking.“Sorry, I don’t have time for games.”All he could think about was Teresa and Anthony’s bitter words from earlier.He didn’t want to doubt his wife, but her behavior had been strange lately. Anthony’s taunt had only scratched at a truth he’d been afraid to confront.Before Oliver could walk away, the woman called him from the back.“Please, come back, Commander! You’re destined to lead an empire, not live like this!”At the word “Commander,” Oliver hesitated. There was something familiar about it, something that tugged at a distant memory.But he shook it off."I'm leaving if you're not here looking for my trouble. Don't follow me." Oliver said. His demand sounded unfamiliarly firm.And weirdly, the woman listened to his order, stopped behind him.He headed straight to th

    “Oh my God! Denver!” Trisha gasped, dropping to her knees to check on him. “You bastard! What did you just do?”“You should be thankful that’s all I did. I could have done worse,” Oliver replied coldly.His face showed pain, but he held it in.“How could you lie to me for so long, Trisha? After everything I did for you…”“Oh, spare me. I gave you the chance to be my husband.” Trisha sneered.“Do you even realize what kind of life I could have had if I hadn’t been tied to you?”Each word was like a slap across Oliver’s face.“I could have lived a life of luxury. But what did I get? A worthless husband who couldn’t even find a decent job,” she added, her voice dripping with scorn.“I deserve someone like Denver, someone who can give me the life I should have had.”As she spat out these words, Oliver tightened his hands, struggling to keep his composure."I gave you everything I had...“No matter what luxury you wanted, I worked extra shifts just to buy it for you.“You wanted more spendi

    “The God of Mercenaries? What kind of title was that?” Oliver asked, stifling a laugh.“You’re the best of Legion. Hence the title of a God was given to you,”Melissa explained, her tone polite yet respectful.Oliver shook his head.“I know how to fight, but I’m not the man you are looking for.”“I’ve been living in this quiet town for years. The person you described sound way too powerful to be hiding out in a place like this. “It couldn’t possibly be me.”Even as he denied it, doubt crept into Oliver’s heart.Who was he?“That’s why I said you’re not meant for this life,” Melissa responded. “But here, I have something for you.”Melissa pulled something in her pocket.But it wasn’t just any card. This one was red.“This is your card,” Melissa said.“If you take this to Khan, the blacksmith in the Capital, he’ll confirm your true identity.”Oliver took the card, frowning as he examined it.“People with black cards are usually VIPs at banks... but a red one? That’s... interesting,” he

    “You stink asshole! We’re done! Don’t make me call the cops!”Trisha screamed, and Oliver just sighed. “Not everything is about you, Trisha. I'm here for the business.”Trisha eyed him from head to toe, her expression full of disdain.“Business? You?” She laughed, shaking her head. “Please! You can’t even afford to walk through those doors. Aren’t you embarrassed?”“Why would I be?”“Because this is a private bank that only serves real VIPs,”The guard standing nearby chimed in, rolling his eyes.Oliver glanced at the guard, unfazed.“Okay, and what if I am one of your top clients?” he asked.The guard raised an eyebrow, clearly unimpressed.“If you’re a top client, then I’m the President.”“Like a stray dog pretending to be a lion,” Trisha added, smirking. “Stay out here and watch me go inside, loser.”She gave him one last smug look before strutting through the doors and into the bank.Oliver let out a quiet chuckle, then turned to the guard, his voice calm but firm.“Here’s my car

    “Be careful,” Seraphine told him, her tone low and pleading. “Those people you’re fighting with aren’t ordinary ones. You don’t even know who’s pulling the strings.”“I know,” Oliver answered, nodding. “But I’ll discover their identities. Not now, but soon.”“And while you’re doing it, make sure no one can catch up to you,” Seraphine reminded him. “Don’t trust anyone, Oliver. That’s what I did, and I survived.”Oliver’s jaw clenched upon hearing those words.He could hear Seraphine’s voice and breathing hardening on the other line, and at the same time, it infuriated him.‘Seraphine had experienced too many hardships in those three years for her to think like this,’ Oliver thought, gritting his teeth. ‘And I wasn’t even there for her.’Oliver paused for a moment, then answered after a few seconds.“Alright. I will do that.” His tone was low, and his eyes narrowed upon noticing something in the streets.He spoke again, “You should rest as well, Sera. Sleep tight with Anastasia beside y

    Chris nodded solemnly, like he was receiving an official vow from a superhero. “Okay, Uncle. Then I’ll wait.”Oliver nodded and smiled in response.For a moment, he felt bad that he had Chris in his arms, and even spent time with him as a kid, while he wasn’t able to do that to Anastasia.But he realized that he couldn’t bring back the past. Oliver could only focus on the present for a better future.“Okay, kid. I’ll put you down now,” Oliver told Chris as he let the latter’s feet step onto the ground.His gaze moved onto Nate and Rebecca afterward. “Thanks for the food. And the company.”Nate nodded, then asked. “You sure you don’t want to rest for a bit more? You just came back.”“Nah,” Oliver replied, grabbing his jacket from the back of the couch. “If I stay too long, I’ll start thinking I can afford peace.”“You do deserve it, though,” Rebecca answered, her smile faltering slightly.She added, “There were so many things that happened in the Capital, and Zayne’s in jail now.

    Rebecca leaned forward slightly, curiosity flickering behind her eyes as she looked at Oliver.“So what now? You buy their companies, and then what? Walk away?”Hearing those words, Oliver smirked. “Walking away is never a part of the plan, and this isn’t just revenge.” He paused, then spoke again. “This is a message.”Nate’s brows furrowed, his face laced with confusion. “To whom?”“To everyone who thinks they can mess with the people I care about and get away with it.”A brief silence followed again, heavier this time.Then, Rebecca slowly let out a breath and leaned back. “Remind me never to cross you.”“You won’t,” Oliver replied, flashing a small grin. “You’re not my enemy, but an ally. And also, you wouldn’t dare. I just know it.”Rebecca shot him a deadpan look.“I said that not because I’m scared.” She rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. “I just don’t want to see Seraphine show up at my house, mad like a wild lioness.”That made Nate laugh, tension easing slightly.“I’ve ne

    “You didn’t tell me that he’s here,” Rebecca said, her lips curving into a smirk. “If I had known, I might have thrown a welcome-back party.“He didn’t tell me either,” Nate answered, wiping some parts of his face, which was still wet because of the water.A maid also came up to them, cleaning some wet parts on the floor, which was on the other side, not on the part where Rebecca was sitting.“Thanks,” said Nate with a smile.The maid only nodded in response before leaving the three of them alone.Nate added, talking to Rebecca, “I only saw him outside of the house. I didn’t even know how he managed to find my new location.”“I have connections now,” Oliver smirked and clicked his tongue. “But something that didn’t reach my radar is that you two were already together.”Rebecca grinned widely, holding her hand toward Nate’s arm.“We’re still getting to know each other,” she explained, her tone happy and proud. “That’s why I’m not interested in Ray.”She looked at Oliver afterward, now

    After a few minutes, Oliver had reached his first destination.No, it wasn’t in Denver or Jay’s house. His plans for returning to town aren't just to buy companies.He wanted to reconnect with his old acquaintances, too.“Thanks,” Oliver told the taxi driver, giving him a few bucks, before he drove away.Now, he was in front of a big house. It has a theme of black, white, and a little touch of silver.It didn’t look like the houses of rich people in town, but at the same time, it exudes elegance and power.Oliver clicked the button beside the black gate, and suddenly, the camera in the middle pointed at him, analyzing his face.“Is this Nathan Stuart’s residence?” Oliver asked on the camera, knowing that a person is looking right through it.But suddenly, a familiar voice cut through the silence.“Who are you?” a man in a baritone asked, the confusion evident in his tone.Oliver turned around, and to be honest, he didn’t need to do that.He already knew who the person talking to him w
