Living With My Lady Boss Chapter 175
Wilbur looked over. The man was old and wrinkled, hunched over as he walked. He was sporting a bowler hat and a pale gray tracksuit. The cane in his hand was black, with a bright red jewel the size of an egg on top of it. He looked like a man who had been around for a long time, but one with wealth and status. The old man smiled at Wilbur as he walked over, his face wrinkling from the gesture. "Let me introduce myself." The old man sat down next to Wilbur with Jasmine's help. "My name is Albert Joeman." Wilbur poured Albert a cup of tea and nodded at him. "Please have some tea, Honorable Mister Joeman." "Please drop the honorifics." Albert shook his head. "I'm just an old geezer with one foot in the grave." Wilbur smiled and looked at Albert. Albert said, "Don't bother looking. I've got some amount of spirit energy in me to be in charge of the Department of Paranormal Research and Defense." Wilbur said nothing, taking a sip of tea. "Ryder told me that you're incredibl

Wilbur's brows furrowed once again, his gaze flashing. Albert shook his head. "It's not up to me. Anyone in my position would do the same. You have to understand that this is about the safety of our country." Wilbur slowly leaned back against the sofa and stayed silent. Albert said, "What's wrong with joining the department, anyway? We have a great deal of power and a pretty nice salary. Wouldn't it be better for Cape's development if you put that power to good use?" Wilbur stared at Albert, caught off-guard by his statement. This old man seemed to know all his secrets and was exposing them like it was nothing. It was quite a shock that the old man was encouraging the abuse of power for personal gain. Albert smiled. "Don't look at me like that. This isn't that big of a deal to people like us. We're all just doing what we need to get by. It's true that we get paid pretty well, but you're going to need a side gig or two if you want to live truly comfortably, aren't you? I'll

Jasmine smiled. "That's right. You can request for backup from your handler anytime you need, and if we deem your situation appropriate, we'll grant it to you." "Wouldn't that take forever? I'd be beaten up by the time they finished their assessment." A lot could happen in the span of a second in a battle, and there was no time to wait for assessments or tests of that kind. Jasmine reassured him, "Don't worry. There are only eighteen people with the same status as you, but you'll have over eighteen thousand people as backup. The assessment will not take more than a minute." "F*ck me." Wilbur could not help but swear. 18,000 people as backup to just 18 people? That was quite something else. "What kind of backup are we talking about?" Wilbur asked. Jasmine said, "Any firearms excluding nuclear weapons, warplanes included." "Holy moley!" That was all Wilbur could say. It was more than fair that nuclear weapons were not as easily accessible, but Dasha was definitely advance

Jasmine and Albert had already left the room by the time Albert was done talking. "What, I have an assistant too?" Wilbur asked, but his question went unanswered. He stared at the closed door in silence. He had surveyed with his spirit energy earlier and sensed a powerful spirit energy within Jasmine. She was pretty much on the same level as Wilbur and was definitely an elite cultivator. However, he did not seem to detect anything in Albert. There was not an ounce of spirit energy, which made him seem like a mortal. However, there was no way he could have gotten the position he was in if he did not have any powers, and he had admitted himself that he did have them. Wilbur had the urge to tap into Albert's conscience several times, wanting to get some information through his soul. He managed to hold himself back in the end. Who knew what that old man could be hiding? Moreover, Wilbur might end up humiliating himself or even risking his life. That would be bad. Wilbur sco

"A banquet?" Faron fell silent. "I'll pass on this one. I shouldn't be showing my face at an event like this." Faron was someone of power, and it was true that he had to pick what events he attended. Wilbur chuckled. "Are you sure? There might be something worth seeing." "Something worth seeing?" Faron's face lit up with curiosity. "I've got to be there, then. What banquet is this?" "The city business banquet. You can find out where it is for yourself," Wilbur said, then hung up. He gave it some thought and took his own caller card out of his personal phone before inserting it into the phone the department had given him. There was no way he was going to be lugging two phones around all the time. He put his license and handgun back into the briefcase, then tossed it onto the passenger seat before driving back home. It was only one o'clock in the afternoon then. Wilbur sat in the living room in silence, thinking long and hard about something. This banquet was definitely
Living With My Lady Boss Chapter 180
The banquet hall on the top floor was bustling with people. Pendleton Howard and Fergus Long, two of Seechertown's most powerful tycoons, were there. It was clear just how big of a deal the banquet was. With their presence, it was no surprise that the hall was filled with other businessmen in Seechertown as well. There were almost eighty people in the hall, with most of them people of power in the Seechertown business industry. They gathered in groups, talking and laughing among themselves. Everyone knew that banquets like these were usually the government's way of gathering everyone to talk about whatever was being promoted as well as giving it support. The deeper meaning, of course, was to warn everyone not to try and poke their noses in places they were not supposed to. Everyone knew just how powerful Pendleton and Fergus were, and there was no way they would skip showing up. Most of the attendees were there with the implied message that the Electronics Industrial Pa

Pendleton was an experienced politician, so he was well aware of Faron and what he represented. Although Faron sat there silently, his silence conveyed a certain attitude. However, Pendleton was unsure of what exact stance Faron had at the moment. Pendleton's goal was to find out why Faron had come. Faron chuckled and said, "My work is alright, but the project you're overseeing is quite impressive, Mister Howard. It's boosting the economy and providing jobs in Seechertown. Congratulations!" Pendleton smiled and replied, "This is all thanks to your father's vision. He supported me from the beginning, which is why the project was able to be finalized so quickly. I must really thank your father." "I'm not sure, but it's still the fruits of your labor, Mister Howard. You're being too humble," said Faron with a laugh. Pendleton was certain that Faron did not have any objections regarding the industrial park project. He felt relieved. It did not matter if Faron had other moti

Not long after Faye and Wilbur had taken their seats, Fabian and Shawn came up to them. Fabian frowned as he looked at Wilbur, then asked, "What are you doing here? Have I not made myself clear?" "Faye insisted on bringing me along, so I can't help it," said Wilbur in a neutral tone. Shawn glanced at Faye at that moment, his eyes giving off a surprised look. He saw photos of Faye before, but he did not expect her to be that beautiful and elegant in person. He had encountered numerous women in his life, but encountering such a stunning beauty with both elegance and charm was truly a first for him. He turned to Wilbur after being surprised by her beauty. He sized him up and asked, "You're Mister Penn, right?" "Yes." "I heard you work for Cape Consortium too?" "I suppose so." "What's your position?" "I don't have a position." "Are you a normal employee?" "Not really." "What are you then?" Shawn seemed pushy. Wilbur asked casually, "Do I need to explain to you?

Faye was clad in a beautiful wedding dress, hardly needing any blusher for how red her cheeks looked. Wilbur was also looking dapper in a fine tuxedo, and the bride and groom went around toasting to their friends one by one. Both their parents were overjoyed, knowing that their children had finally ended up with someone so wonderful. Everyone else was also brimming with smiles, drinking up a storm as the night went on. These people were all friends or subordinates of Wilbur and wanted nothing more than the best for him and Faye. There was no wedding emcee, and the ceremony was extremely simple, but the atmosphere was incomparable as everyone was nothing but smiles. The reception lasted all the way until late into the night, and even the newlyweds' parents got a little tipsy. The banquet ended at last, and the guests ushered Wilbur and Faye into their new bedroom. The newlyweds sat down facing each other, locking eyes. Faye lowered her head bashfully, and Wilbur looked

It was evening on Sealake Island when Wilbur returned. He stood on the long bridge, overwhelmed with emotion as he let out a hint of his aura. The island grew abuzz at once, and a series of familiar figures fought their way into Wilbur's line of sight. Wilbur smiled, stepping onto the island slowly. His smile grew as he came to the square, taking in the sight of Faye, Elsa, Faron, Shepard, and many others. Everyone else stared back at him, unable to hide the emotion on their faces. It had been so long since they had seen Wilbur, and there was no way for them to reach him. Words could not describe how much they had worried about and missed him. "I thought you were never coming back, Wilbur." Faye was the first to speak. Wilbur walked up to her, taking her into his arms. "I'm sorry. It'll never happen again. Everything's over now, and I'll never leave you again." Faye's heart soared as she broke out into overjoyed sobs. Everyone else was nothing but joyous as well. Fo

Bahamut, being a reincarnation of Kaiser himself, came slithering toward Wilbur. They both turned into their human forms, and a fierce battle broke out once more. Kaiser channeled his energy into Bahamut's body, giving Bahamut the upper hand over time. At last, Bahamut severely wounded Wilbur with a blow of his sword, causing Wilbur to fall from mid-air. "Hahaha!" Kaiser appeared suddenly then, laughing loudly. "Nice work, Bahamut." "Thank you, Master." Bahamut retreated behind Kaiser, looking at him coldly. He whipped out a dagger from his sleeves all of a sudden, driving it deep into Kaiser. Kaiser flipped around sharply, grabbing Bahamut's wrist and glowering at him. "Have you lost your mind?" Just then, the Dark Lord's voice sounded from Bahamut's throat. "You've stopped me many times now, Kaiser Fern! There's no way in hell I'll let you become the ultimate elite!" A furious Kaiser reached out to grab Bahamut's head, sucking him into his body. An explosion sounded throu

Just then, the Cold Lord muttered a spell. A series of snowy mountains descended from above, one of them striking Wilbur and Augheimer as the Cold Lord cackled. "Haha! Is that all you've got?" As his words rang through the air, the snowy mountain exploded with a loud boom into countless icy fragments to reveal Wilbur and Augheimer, standing tall and completely unaffected. "What?" "These imbeciles!" the Flame God shouted. The air around turned into a sea of flames at once, burning away relentlessly, but they vanished as soon as they came in contact with Wilbur and Augheimer's defense barriers. The Earth God shouted, "I'll settle this!" He muttered a spell, and the ground cracked open as Wilbur and Augheimer fell into a bottomless abyss. The Earth God smirked, and the crack began to close up. Yet just a few seconds later, the ground exploded as Wilbur and Augheimer flew back up. The Tornado God cast a spell to bring about a fierce gust of wind filled with countless razor-sh

The next second, Wilbur's Magic Dragon Blade made a gash in the air. The two men then wove through the gash, making their way to the lower dimensions from the upper dimensions and returning to Earth. The gash closed itself up, and a powerful wave of black miasma surged into the oceans from the heavens. It cleared up within a few minutes, and Earth was turned into a dark space. Several big fissures appeared in the heavens as the evil gods descended on Earth. The Blood God, the God of Destruction, the Cold Lord, the Flame God, the Earth God, the Tornado God, the God of Bloodlust, and the Snake God—all eight evil gods had descended upon Earth at the same time. Wilbur summoned the broken pieces of the Light Armor from the Fire Dragon Ring. The pieces radiated a white glow as they hovered in mid-air, and Wilbur quickly used his mind to put them together before wearing the Light Armor on his body. "Hahaha!" The Blood God laughed loudly. "I guess the universe dimensions aren't all

Hailey and Kayleen ducked out of the way before the pillars of light reached them, darting up to Sade at the last second as Hailey drove her sword into him at the same time Kayleen did the same with her spear. Hailey glowered at Sade. "You're the one who's really despicable here, Sade. Say goodbye to the world forever!" "Arghhhh!" Sade's body exploded in a flash of white light, disappearing out of sight. Hailey and Kayleen both got down on one knee. "At your service, Masters." Just then, Wilbur and Augheimer looked at the two ladies at the same time. Augheimer said, "At ease. You can both go back now, your work here is done." "Yes, Master." Hailey and Kayleen disappeared the next second. Just then, a fierce wind rolled over as a pillar of white light descended from the heavens as Odysseus appeared in front of the two men. "Wilbur Penn and Augheimer. I’ve finally found you. Tell me where the dimension guardians are, and hand them over!" A gleeful Odysseus reached out t
Living With My Lady Boss Chapter 2901
Sade threw his head back, laughing loudly. "No one has the right to replace me, no one! I'm the real dimensional guardian, the leader of the galaxy!" Just then, two figures appeared in the sky. They were Hailey and Kayleen, two of the other dimensional guardians. Hailey was holding a long sword as she scowled at Sade below her. "You went against the rules of the universe and changed its functions, Sade. And now you've killed Wilbur Penn, the cultivator who was supposed to replace you. For that, Kayleen and I are going to kill you today." Sade smirked at those words, not looking shocked at all. "I knew you two would never let me go for killing Wilbur. But he's already dead, and I still need to maintain order in the universe as a dimensional guardian. Even though you two may hate me, you can't kill me or you'd be going against the rules of the universe too, and have to be sentenced by Mister Richardson. Trust me, you won't end up in much better of a state than I'm in." Just then

Augheimer asked out of confusion, "What? To the upper dimension? All of a sudden?" Wilbur looked flustered, he replied, "There's no time to explain. Odysseus will be here in a while, and we won't be able to escape." Sade looked at Wilbur. He told Augheimer, "He's right. Believe him. Why would your close friend lie to you?" "That's right. He's a dimensional guardian, Sade. I begged Sade to go back in time here. Hurry up and come with me, Augheimer!" "Thanks, but if we're leaving, we should at least go to Buck Town and meet Felix one last time, right?" asked Augheimer. Wilbur looked at Augheimer in the eyes, there was a sense of familiarity that welled up all of a sudden. Wilbur instantly realized Augheimer had a secret in Buck Town, and perhaps it was very important to Augheimer. He helplessly nodded and replied, "Alright, we'll go to Buck Town first." Then, the three of them came to Buck Town through a transportation array. Augheimer grabbed Wilbur and ran. He said, "Run! F

"Damn it! Your second wish was supposed to be mine!" yelled Odysseus. Odysseus once captured a dimensional guardian's servant by chance, and he used him as leverage to obtain his final two wishes. His first wish was for Sade to guide him to the most powerful power of light spell. His second wish was for Sade to lead him to the Death Scepter. Odysseus mastered the power of two types of laws, the power of light and the power of death. He quickly grasped the intricacies of the power of death due to his unique talent. Odysseus wielded the might of both supreme spells with the Death Scepter and the most powerful power of light spell. Therefore, Odysseus gained immense confidence. His capabilities far surpassed most upper dimension cultivators, but he remained in the middle dimension. His desire was to once again capture a second dimensional guardian servant. Odysseus planned to acquire the Death Cloak by obtaining the servant's wish. Ultimately, he would combine the Death Cloak, D
