Liam's attention was now fully focused on the two figures that had arrived out of nowhere He knew the other one, Gary, because this wasn't the first time they had met. They once met when Gary had kidnapped Liam's mom. As for the other figure, shrouded behind a mask, Liam couldn't discern his identity, but one thing was clear: he was with Gary, both sent by the shadow council.A sense of danger washed over Liam as he realized how serious this situation was. Gary was an operative of the shadow, a ruthless secret society, bent on seizing the ring and eradicating the Danvers bloodline. With the ring now in their possession, the shadow's ultimate objective was to eliminate Liam and his family, the Danvers. Liam's heart raced in his chest with worry.Liam understood that he would be forced to fight Gary and his mysterious and masked partner head-on. It was inevitable as he wouldn't have a choice if he wanted to have a chance of getting out of this alive, and he was not so confident he coul
Liam didn't expect Gary to suddenly teleport behind him and attack him. He had no idea that someone could have such an ability. As Gary's devastating attack struck him, Liam was sent flying through the air, crashing forcefully to the ground. Liam immediately tried to get up, however Gary's powerful attack had left him very weak, so he couldn't get up, he could hardly move his feet and hands.Struggling against the aftermath of Gary's powerful attack, Liam tried to push himself to his feet with absolute determination, his muscles trembling with effort. Yet, despite trying his hardest to get to his feet, weakness ran through his body, rendering unable to stand up. Gary's attack was not a Normal one, it was more than a dozen times more powerful than that of a very trained martial artist. Still, despite the overwhelming weakness that was running through his body, Liam refused to stay down, knowing he had to fight as it was the only way he could come out of this alive. Ignoring his achin
Hearing Gary's chilling threat to wipe out his entire family, Liam was gripped by a wave of emotions: fear for his loved ones' safety, coupled with a gnawing sense of helplessness and burning anger. He didn't even want to imagine Gary doing anything to his family.Liam was now even more determined to rise to his feet and stop Gary.Gritting his teeth. He tried to rise up from the ground, Feeling a surge of power coursing through him, as if an invisible force was forcing him to try and rise up.Seeing as Liam tried to stand up, Gary forcefully pressed his foot onto Liam's chest with enough pressure to make him gasp for air as the weight pressed down on him. “What's the matter Liam, not as powerful as before?” He mocked, enjoying the sight of someone who had previously bested him now powerless beneath him.Liam let out a groan in pain, as he tried to move Gary's feet away, however he was pressing down with all his might, so he didn't have enough strength to do so. "You lay one finger on
As Liam expertly evaded Gary's lunging strike, he didn't waste time as he unleashed his own counterattack with precision and power. With a smooth and easy movement he unleashed a bone-crushing roundhouse kick directly at Gary's face. The impact echoed through the air, sending shockwaves of force through Gary's body, forcing him to stagger backwards as he struggled to maintain his balance. Yet, Liam wasn't finished. Without hesitation, he launched himself at Gary once more, delivering a powerful kick square to his chest. The force of the blow lifted Gary off his feet, sending him crashing to the ground with force. This took Gary by surprise, as he hadn't expected Liam to possess such strength, especially since he no longer had the ring that once gave him power. Even Liam was surprised by his own strength, but he didn't think too much of it, knowing the danger wasn't over, yet. After all he wasn't fighting Gary only, he still had to deal with his masked companion. With a quick glance,
As Liam looked towards where the noise had come from, he saw the patrons that were once inside the cafe come outside. Cleary they had heard the noise coming from the outside and had come to check out what was happening. And it actually surprised Liam that it took them that long to realize that something was going on outside. Meanwhile at that same time, Gary used the distraction that the patrons who had come from the cafe had provided to make an escape along with his partner, the masked figure. In the blink of an eye, the two of them disappeared. Gary was so confident a few minutes ago, thinking he had things under control, but all of a sudden he was making a run for his life. Originally the plan was to defeat Liam and eliminate him. And that was going well at first, as it seemed like they had him at their mercy, however in the blink of an eye, things had changed and Liam had the upper hand, having them completely at their mercy. With their plan foiled Gary knew he couldn't defeat
Liam arrived at the Danvers manor. He parked his car in the garage before making his way inside the house. As he walked to his bedroom, he couldn't shake off the frustration and annoyance from his recent encounter with Gary and his partner. The fact that he had let them get away annoyed him, because he felt like he should have done better, to send a message to whoever had sent them. And the mystery of his continued abilities without the ring puzzled him even more. He had assumed that losing the ring would strip him of its powers, but that wasn't the case. Somehow, the powers remained with him, he was even stronger than before, judging by how easily he had managed to defeat Gary and the masked figure. Liam quickly changed out of his ripped clothes, opting for fresh ones. At that same moment as he was changing his outfits, the whole situation replayed in his mind. How did he still have the powers without the ring? He didn't understand how. He decided that he would have to ask Geor
After his dad left, Liam sat on the balcony for sometime, occupied with reading the ancient mysterious book. And as he read it, he came to learn a few things about why he still had his powers even without the ring.As Liam delved deeper into the ancient mysterious book, he uncovered a lot of information, some which he already knew about. The information was about the source of his powers. The pages revealed that the ring was merely a pathway, a physical manifestation of the true source of his abilities. It was not the ring itself that granted him power, but rather his connection to a mystical energy that transcended physical objects.As he delved even deeper into the ancient text, he uncovered the intricacies of his family's lineage and the unique nature of his inheritance. The book revealed that while his family shared a common ancestry, the powers he wielded were not bestowed upon every member of the bloodline. Instead, they were selective, choosing only one individual. And it was a
Liam didn't know how he would make Karen's parents and brother understand. They weren't even giving him a chance to defend himself. They seemed unwilling to listen. But, he couldn't really blame them for that, knowing that the timing made it appear as though he had betrayed Karen. Shortly after he and Elena had been together, he started dating Karen. The brief interval between these events made it look like he had been with Elena while already involved with Karen.Liam sighed as he continued to explain to Karen's family that he didn't betray her. "I know it seems bad, but Karen and I weren't together when it happened," Liam tried to explain to them. Feeling desperate to make them understand that he didn't actually cheat on Karen, he and Elena happened before they started dating. "It was before we even started dating.”Mrs. Wolfe's eyes narrowed, her expression hardening as she felt even more disbelief. No one from the Wolfe family believed any word coming out from Liam's mouth at this
