It was clear that she was trying to imply that it was time for Cindy to leave.

However, Cindy did not seem to understand what Nancy's gaze meant. Instead, Cindy sat her boyfriend down as well. "Since we happened to run into each other, let's have lunch together."

"Uhm… I would hate to disrupt you and your friend," Nancy said in a small voice.

Cindy chuckled. "Oh, it's no disruption! The more the merrier!"

Nancy did not know what to say, lowering her head quietly.

To tell the truth, she did not want to see Cindy or eat with her.

However, she could not bring herself to say so.

Wilbur merely said, "Sure. I guess fate is a strange thing."

Cindy piped up then. "Wilbur, I heard Nancy invited you to lunch here?"

"Yes, she did," Wilbur said.

Cindy let out a mocking laugh. "Do you know how much a meal here costs?"

"I wouldn't know. I rarely eat at places like this."

That was the truth. Wilbur did not really like fine dining, so he was honestly unsure.

Cindy smirked. "A

    Cindy's stuck her chin out haughtily. "He's a higher-up of a global investment group, and about to be the CEO of the Dasha branch. That's the kind of man people like Nancy deserve, not some loser like you." Wilbur was speechless. How was he a loser all of a sudden? It was true that he remembered Cindy to be the most popular girl in school back then. All the boys wanted to get with her but were turned down, and she was nicknamed 'Ice Queen' because of that. All of that, just for her to be changing boyfriends like it was nothing right now… It was truly a big shift. Cindy saw Wilbur staying silent and grew even more smug. "Now you know the difference. Remember now, don't even think about hitting on Nancy. Got it?" Nancy could not stand it anymore and hurried to say, "Cindy, you've got it wrong. It really isn't what you think." "Oh, you," Cindy said, looking pitifully at Nancy. "You've got the body and the looks. I might be better looking overall, but you're still quite a beaut

    Wilbur dug in, glancing at the foreign man. Something felt off about everything Cindy had just said. How did she end up with some influential foreign guy just like that? Wilbur thought it through and pretended to pick up his phone. He sneakily took a photo of the foreign man and sent it to his top hacker and sniper friend, Layla. He captioned the photo with the man's name— Ricardo Licorica. After sending the text, Wilbur could not help but let out a chuckle. What a ridiculous last name this guy had. Within ten minutes, he received a reply from Layla. There was a Waller Street Investment Group, but there was no such person by the name of Ricardo Licorica. The man's real name was Santiago Tivella, a notorious scammer who had been involved in countless scams and had a warrant put out for him. He had been on the run for over a year. Wilbur shook his head. It looked like Cindy had been targeted. But Woods Corporate was under Cape, which would suffer a loss as well if Cindy w

    Wilbur laughed. This foreign guy would not expect Wilbur to have access to a world-class network of information and an elite hacker as well. The years he spent leading the Abyss Mercenaries would not have gone so smoothly otherwise. Just then, Wilbur smiled. "Santiago Tivella. You're involved in various scams around the world, and there's a warrant for your arrest. Are you trying to start something new again in Dasha now? Just tell us the truth. What do you want from Cindy this time?" Santiago's expression shifted at once and began sweating profusely. He never expected someone in this country to know about his past. However, he was an expert in his field and did not let his panic show. He remained silent, racking his brain for a plan. Cindy, however, was unwilling to budge this time. She stood up in a fit of rage as she pointed at Wilbur. "What are you trying to insinuate, Wilbur? How dare you accuse my boyfriend of being a scammer? You'll be held responsible for this!"

    However, Cindy was having none of that. She glared at Nancy and Wilbur, fuming as she shook her head. "You're both beyond saving, I swear. I'm not staying here and arguing with you any further. Do what you want! Don't come crying to me later, Nancy." Cindy got to her feet and was ready to leave. Right on cue, her phone started ringing. She looked at it and picked it up at once. "Hello, Miss Yves? Is something the matter?" Cindy sounded overjoyed. Everyone at Woods Corporate knew that Cape was the real boss behind Woods Corporate, and Faye was pretty much the top dog in Cape. To Cindy, getting a call from Faye herself was an honor in itself. However, Faye's voice was icy cold, "Cindy Vega, you're fired. Please make your way to the company now to sort out your paperwork as soon as possible." "What?" Cindy could hardly believe her ears. Faye ended the call right after that. She could hardly be bothered to continue talking to Cindy. Cindy's mind was in chaos as she held

    Santiago's expression turned solemn. His gaze flickered murderously with a faint aura forming around his body. Wilbur smirked, and a powerful unseen force formed around him, enveloping Santiago's aura in no time. In the next moment, Santiago felt like he had plunged headfirst into icy waters. An overwhelming terror washed over him, rendering him helpless. Wilbur sneered and said, "Did you really think that you're able to do something with your measly skill?" Santiago was shocked. He had trained in some European martial arts and was quite skilled in them. He had never witnessed such terrifying energy that was enough to make him lose all his powers in the blink of an eye and make him feel such terror from within. Wilbur said slowly, "Stop struggling. It's not going to work. Come clean with what you were trying to get from Cindy and surrender at once. You won't be breaking too many laws just pretending to hold a position in a global investment group. However, you will get in t

    Cindy was in anguish, with tears streaming uncontrollably down her cheeks. She was supposed to have a bright future, but her greed caused her to be taken advantage of, then fired from her company. She was truly at rock bottom. Yet, she had done all of that to herself. The fault was hers alone. Wilbur got to his feet and said to Nancy, "You stay and comfort her first. I'll be on my way." Nancy nodded silently, knowing that the lunch was over. It would be awkward if Wilbur stayed any longer. That was the only thing he could do. Wilbur glanced at Cindy and sighed. He then went to the counter and paid the bill before leaving. Wilbur could still feel his heart aching over the bill on his way home. 18,000 dollars! He had never been that lavish with his money before. Just as Wilbur was agonizing over that, he brought his car to a stop over the bridge. The car in front of him came to a complete stop. There seemed to be a traffic jam. All Wilbur could do was wait in the car, b

    Wilbur could not help but sigh. Wilbur knew something was up from the moment he heard the man's initial shouting. That was why he did not attack immediately. Instead, he wanted to know what was going on before doing anything. Sure enough, his patience has paid off. "Calm down. Tell me what happened and let me see if I can fix it for you. If you keep going like this, you might lose everything and end up in jail for the rest of your life," Wilbur said. Tears streamed down the man's face, and he shook his head. "I've got no choice. There's nothing I can do." "You might not be able to solve the problem, but someone else might. Come on now. Tell me what happened. I might have a solution, you know." Perhaps the man really wanted to let it out. He started talking after Wilbur coaxed him. "A year ago, I was scammed by Kenji Lilith. He made me lose up to ten million dollars in his casino, then persuaded me to take a loan from loan sharks. A year later, the interest racked up to abou

    "My good man, stop shaking like that. There are snipers in front and behind us. They can take you down anytime if you don't surrender. It's better if you hide," Wilbur said slowly. The man was shocked. He then moved his head behind Wilbur's body at once. "How did you know that?" "I was once in the army. I've gone through plenty of situations like this," Wilbur said. The man was curled up behind Wilbur, not saying anything as he panicked. Just then, the woman in the white shirt said loudly, "Hey, tell us what you want, and we'll try to give it to you. Please do not hurt the hostage." The man did not know what to say in his panic, and ended up asking Wilbur, "What should I say?" Wilbur smiled. "Honestly, you should calm down first. Organize your thoughts and tell them how this whole situation came to be." Wilbur's firm tone seemed to give the man a little confidence. He began to calm down and think things through. Just then, the woman in the white shirt noticed Wilbur.

    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

    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
