On a clear sunny day, the sweet scent of flowers bloomed through the air.

Thomas took public transportation to Swan Restaurant on 166 Jewel Road.

Before he reached the entrance, he saw that it was packed with people. Every table was full and there were still many patrons queueing up outside.

“Huh, it's not even peak hour and there are so many people here?”

“The business here is superb.”

Thomas walked into the shop and saw Nephele helping her father wait on customers. Her two short legs moved exceptionally fast, just like a corgi. She trotted around the place.

Thomas was pleased at the sight.

Nephele was serving the dishes. Then she turned and spotted Thomas.

“Uncle Thomas!!!”

“Hey~”

Nephele trotted over. Thomas bent down to pick and carry her up. He reached out to pinch her rosy little cheeks.

When Griffin heard the commotion, he walked out of the kitchen to check it out. Then he laughed.

He quickly exclaimed to everyone in the area. “We apologize everyone, but we ran

    Griffin was very unhappy.Thomas smiled faintly as he shook his head. “She came here because of your reputation. Forget it, you don’t have to neglect your business just to accompany me. It’s not easy to build up your reputation, so don’t ruin it because of me. Just go and cook for her.”Griffin nodded. “Boss, please enjoy your food first. I’ll come back in a minute.”“All right.”Griffin stood up and walked toward Flora’s table as he looked at her.He kept looking at her while he made his way over.Griffin frowned, and even his body started to tremble.This woman… When he walked to Flora, he was totally stunned. He had initially wanted to ask if she would like to eat sweet or spicy food, or whether she had any allergies. In the end, he could not say anything at all.Flora raised her head and looked at Griffin.“Hey, Boss, what’s wrong with you? I asked you to prepare the food, but you didn’t do it. Why are you standing here…” Before she finished speaking, she was also stun

    No one would hurt their own children. A mother’s love was great. No matter how bad a woman was, it was impossible to treat her kid badly.Yet, Flora really scraped the bottom barrel of humankind.She did not care about her own daughter. She just cared about whether she would be more famous and earn more money.If other people knew that she was divorced and had a daughter, her sweet and innocent image would disappear. When that happened, how would she still deceive homebodies for money?So, to Flora, her ex-husband and daughter were her great enemies!Griffin was a soldier with a good temperament, and he had a very strong mental capacity. Even so, when he heard Flora’s mean words to their daughter, he could not help but become angry.“People say that women are the most vicious. You’re so mean to your daughter. Are you even a human?”“Hey, what did you say?” Flora anxiously said, “What daughter? Don’t talk nonsense. I don’t have a daughter!”Griffin chuckled. “Fine, Nephele is my

    Flora casually waved her hand. “Write down how much money you want. Since we know each other, it’s my compensation for the two of you.“But you have to make it clear. After you get the money, you have to leave this place right away. Don’t try to play tricks with me. If I find out that you still dare to stay in the Southland District, be careful because I will find someone to kill you.”She totally looked like a wicked witch.She looked down on Griffin from her heart. He was just a poor guy who merely knew how to cook. He could never be on par with her.Griffin gritted his teeth while he fumed.But what else could he do?Scold her?No, Griffin would not be able to win over her.Beat her up?If other people found out that he beat a woman, it would affect him worse. Besides, Griffin used his hands to cook, not to fight.Did he really have to take the money and leave?He had finally built up his customer sources, and their lives had finally become peaceful. Did he really have to

    Flora was initially quite angry, but she laughed so hard after she heard the last sentence from Thomas.“What? Say that again, please! Did I hear it wrong?”“He’s a poor ugly guy with one arm. Does he still want to be a celebrity?“What is he good at?”“He doesn’t know how to sing, dance, act, or host. Scott’s Remembrance will sign him only if they are mad.”Jude also kept shaking his head. “Young lad, I know you’re not convinced, but this is the reality. You can’t do anything even if you’re not convinced. People like you who are poor and ugly are born to be despised by other people. All you can do is lower your head and keep working. Don’t try to jump high. The higher you jump, the harder you fall.”His words not only offended Griffin, but also he made other customers in the restaurant angry.The patrons were all regular people.Perhaps they were not very rich, and they were not very good-looking, but all of them were born equal.Was it really terrific just because some of th

    “Um…” Thomas was stunned. He thought for a while before he said, “You can prepare a dish on the spot.”Griffin did not know whether he should cry or laugh. “Scott’s Remembrance is recruiting artists, not chefs. No matter how delicious my food is, I wouldn’t get in, right?”“Trust me, you’ll be fine.”“Gah… Fine, I’ll listen to you. At the worst, I’ll just get embarrassed this time. It’s nothing.”Griffin’s face was gloomy and extremely bitter.Cooking in Scott’s Remembrance Cultural Arts Entertainment?Bah, only Thomas could come up with that kind of idea.He would probably be embarrassed tomorrow. He just wished that he would not be chased out by the company.…..The sun went down, and the night came. Just like that, the day passed.The next morning, Griffin went to the market early to buy the cooking ingredients he needed. He prepared everything in a detailed way.When he came back to the restaurant, a black Maybach was parked at the roadside.The window of the car was

    After a while, the auditioner walked out. Flora and Jude immediately stood up to show their respect.However, Thomas was still sitting. He did not intend to stand up.Flora glared at Thomas. “Don’t you see that the auditioner is here? You’re still sitting there like a boss. Do you have manners?”Thomas remained expressionless.Meanwhile, the auditioner seemed to be trembling. He tidied his collar before he said, “The unnecessary formalities can be waived. Which two of you are here for the audition?”Flora and Griffin stepped forth.The examiner said, “Okay, let the lady start first.”Griffin stood at the side.Flora arrogantly said, “I guess you already know who I am, right? I’m Flora Fiore, the top female artist in live streaming, and I’m very famous. I’m good at singing, dancing, and acting.”The auditioner nodded. “Please show us your performance.”“Okay.”Flora first did a ballet number before she sang “I Believe I Can Soar”.After she performed, she was extremely arrog

    “This is a place that recruits artists. This is not a canteen. Are you here to interview for a chef position?“You’re poor and ugly, fine. But, you’re also so stupid and hopeless.”Griffin lowered his head. He suppressed his anger without lashing out.The auditioner asked, “What performance have you prepared?”“For my performance… Um… I’d like to prepare a dish on the spot.”The atmosphere instantly became cold. The auditioner’s expression revealed a trace of embarrassment. Although he had received an internal notice from Thomas in the beginning, they could not be so fearless, right?If he were a normal artist, it would be completely fine that he could just be recruited through his connection. The problem was that this man was a chef, and he did not know anything else. What did he mean by preparing a dish on the spot?Flora could not help laughing. “Griffin Jones, stop embarrassing yourself here, okay? Quickly, go away. I feel extremely awkward when I see you looking so stupid

    The auditioner stared at Flora and righteously said, “Let me state it again, when Scott’s Remembrance Cultural Arts Entertainment takes in artists, we not only look at their talents. We care more about their moral integrity.“Mr. Griffin Jones has a hundred times better moral integrity than you, and his talent is outstanding.“How can we not take in such an excellent artist with good moral integrity and talent?“But look at you, you’re so arrogant with only a small achievement. You think you’re a superstar, and you get carried away by the compliments from your fans. Think about it, have your singing and dancing reached the professional level?“The empty vessel makes the loudest sound. Flora Fiore, you better behave yourself!”His criticism made Flora speechless.She had never suffered such a great humiliation before. Never! “Great, really great.” Flora pointed at the auditioner. “You’re not taking me in, right? I don’t care about it either! I’ll join Hegemony Entertainment righ

    No one knew how far down the title Emperor of Luck was inherited.They had finally caught Luck.Following that, Eric leaped into action and reeled in his haul as fast as he could. With that, all the remaining accomplices of Luck were caught in one fell swoop!The two million innocent citizens were saved, as all of them took the antidote.Once again, Thomas saved the day.In order to express their gratitude, the citizens decided to erect statues of Thomas in Celandine City and many other cities as well.In the House of Vistaria.Phoebe ran towards her father hurriedly. She then smiled at him and said, “What did I tell you, dad? Thomas will definitely turn things around, right? I won!”Declan was so agitated, that he started tearing up.Thomas was really too amazing. He was capable of turning things around, even in such a predicament.At the same time, the curse that had plagued the Mars family for over a thousand years was finally broken. From then onwards, Declan was finally

    Luck was dumbfounded. Why was Thomas still alive and kicking?“No need to doubt your own eyes. I am indeed still alive.”The crowd parted, making way for a very familiar figure. It was Thomas, the very Thomas whom the public watched him die.As he walked, he said, “Our previous research has already reached ninety-nine percent completion. But no matter how hard we tried, the final one percent remained out of our grasp. At that time, I thought that perhaps the only way was to drink the Ancestral Water and experience the poison itself, which would allow me to have a breakthrough for the final one percent.“And that was what happened. I managed to do it.“After drinking the Ancestral Water, I finally understood what the one percent was and successfully created the antidote for Ancestral Water. Now that the antidote has been created, it will sever your connection with the Ancestral Water.“You will not be able to kill anyone anymore.“You have lost, Luck.”Lost?Luck's eyes were wi

    It was obvious that Eric could not afford to take a gamble this time. But he had no choice. His only choice was to listen to whatever the other party said and prepare a helicopter in twelve hours’ time.That was not all. He was also supposed to request for his superiors to help Luck get out of the country.The thought of it made Eric furious.“Damn it!”He left in anger to deal with the rest of the matter.The sky of Celandine City was covered with clouds.The patriarch, Declan, was in his garden in the House of Vistaria. He stared at the withered flowers as he grieved.His entire life was spent supporting Mr. Cole in hopes that he would be able to create an antidote to Ancestral Water. But at the end of the day, Mr. Cole accomplished nothing.His two disciples — Capricious Holy Hand Elliot, and Thomas — were both dead.There was no one in the world who was capable of creating the antidote for Ancestral Water anymore.“Alas...” Declan sighed. It seemed that it was impossible

    At that moment, the general public was suddenly dumbfounded, as if struck by lightning. Everyone was down in the dumps.Many of those with poor psychological strength directly collapsed on the ground.They believed Thomas' death could be exchanged for their own safety, but who knew, in the end, they got nothing, and Luck, as usual, used their lives as a bargaining chip to force the authorities to listen to His Majesty's words.No antidote to Ancestral Water would ever be created by chance.The lives of people were still in His Majesty's hands.Whenever luck wanted them to die, they would die without any ability to resist.However, this was not the most frightening part. What was even more frightening than this was that the only person who could create the antidote to Ancestral Water had been forced to die alive by them.It would be impossible to create the antidote to Ancestral Water without Thomas.Mr. Cole and Elliot had all died, Thomas was the last person who mastered the

    Eric sighed deeply, "Thomas, even though things have reached this point, you still remain so kind.""I have nothing to say except to choose death because the research failed." Thomas let out a long breath. "Before I die, I want to talk to my family on the phone."Originally, Emma and the others came to Celandine City because they wanted to be reunited with Thomas.Who knew it had turned into a life and death situation?The world was like a chess game; everything was unpredictable.When Thomas was video calling with his family, Emma was already bathed in tears at the other end. She was crying and shouting at Thomas to not be impulsive, and saying perhaps there was still room for things to turn around.That was what she thought, but it was not the case.Every minute Thomas dragged on, more people perished as the result of Ancestral Water, and the crowd’s fear and rage grew.Thomas’ life no longer belonged to him."Honey, take care of the baby."I love you."Those were Thomas’

    For such demanding research, half a day was really too short.Thomas had recruited the best doctors and researchers he could find to work on a detailed study of Ancestral Water.In the past, it was difficult to achieve breakthroughs in the research on Ancestral Water. That was because figuring out how to create an antidote for the Ancestral Water was challenging. On the other hand, it was also because obtaining the Ancestral Water was incredibly difficult. Because they only had a few samples, the results were underwhelming.However, it was different now. Because the entire city's water supply had been turned into Ancestral Water, they were able to collect the samples at their convenience. This made it much easier for Thomas and the others to get the materials.With Thomas in charge, hundreds of researchers were conducting a massive study in just half a day. Unfortunately, things did not go according to plan.Thomas still failed. “We almost got it.“We were so close to makin

    How sinister. “All we want is nothing but—safety.“As long as we’re safe, we definitely won’t make it difficult for everyone. If we’re safe, no one will die.“Now then, I have a small request to make to ensure everyone’s safety.“I demand that Thomas drink Ancestral Water immediately! This person is a real hassle for His Majesty, and we must keep him under our control for our own protection. Please forgive us for the inconvenience.“We'll only give everyone half a day to consider this. The emperor will begin killing people if Thomas does not step forward and drink Ancestral Water by this afternoon.“Okay. I've said everything I wanted to say. Goodbye.” The TV screen went dark, and so did Eric's face.He kicked the trash can over and said fiercely, “What is this? You're the only person in the world who can create an antidote for Ancestral Water’s poison, Thomas!“Once you drink Ancestral Water, you’ll be controlled by them!“Won't you have to obey Luck's every command by the

    After listening to Thomas’ description, Eric also displayed a look of shock and said two words, “As expected.”What did he mean by, as expected?Was it possible that Eric knew that Luck was behind it from the start?“Thomas, follow me.”Eric took Thomas into an empty ward and locked the door. The two sat in the corner of the ward.He whispered, “There is a piece of news that I haven’t announced to the public, that is, besides Celandine City, there are more than ten cities that have problems. Do you know which cities they are?”Thomas’ eyes lit up. He already knew what Eric wanted to say.At the previous meeting, Eric had clearly stated that more than ten cities across the country had been controlled by Luck. Now, there happened to have more than ten cities where residents had been poisoned.Was there such a coincidence?Thomas said, “The residents are poisoned by Ancestral Water. Over ten cities are all under the control of Luck’s forces, so it is almost a certainty that Luck

    “I didn’t. I saw the news early in the morning and was shocked. I haven’t dared to drink a sip of water until now.” Pisces took a deep breath and said, “Is this a natural disaster or a man-made disaster? It’s really terrible.”No matter whether it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, it was no small matter.Soon, Thomas drove to the hospital.Eric had been waiting here for a long time. As soon as he saw Thomas coming, he quickly let him enter the ward.He saw a patient lying on the hospital bed with his eyes closed, and his body was trembling. Although it was very hot, he was as cold as if he had just been lifted out of the freezer.A doctor walked over and said, “Mr. Mayo, let me tell you the general overview of the current situation.”The virus was spread through water sources.After drinking water with the virus, the virus would lurk in the human body.However, lurking did not mean that it would cause an outbreak.At present, over one hundred thousand people had b
