Eithan felt his body growing colder as he at least recognized that he was not even in his own neighborhood anymore. His face showed just how much shocked he was for discovering that in just a second, he was no longer inside his house.

'So a host could so something like this, huh?' he asked himself when a bit of calmness returned to his body.

'Maurice then?' He began guessing as to lessen the panic in his heart.

'For that frickin' phone?'

Just when his mind was being plagued by so many questions, he suddenly felt the back of his scalp and his spines tingled. Something inside his brain suddenly screamed of danger. He felt cold all over, his senses perceiving something which appeared behind him. For how he sensed that, he didn't know. He also didn't know why he had this feeling. If he had to guess, maybe it was the enhancement which the system told him five days ago.

However, no matter what the reason was, he did sense something, no, someone appearing behind him. As if the embodiment of

    "Big bro, sorry by the way for suddenly kicking you and making you end up like this. But actually, it's your fault. Anyway, I'll just consider this my payback for ratting me out yesterday. Punishment for making me upset." "..." "Right. You asked why I'm targeting you. It's because of this." "Hahaha. You know. When I was feeling happy that a police branch finally managed to locate and predict my moves, my companion just suddenly told me it's actually a system-user who did." "Aye, you don't know how disappointed I was! You're so bad for making me feel like that! So I located you and summoned you here!" "..." Only one thing crossed Eithan mind when he finished hearing the lunatic boy's speech. With widened eyes and body still trembling from pain, he mentally shouted to the system, 'Sandro Smith!!!???' "Distant water cannot quench a fire nearby." The wise words from some ancient dude of the oldest and biggest empire in the east. This saying was pretty spot on in Eithan' current si

    Without knowing how many minutes or hours had passed, within the thin boundary between consciousness and unconsciousness, Eithan seemed to see a woman madly ordering other people in white attires to take care of him meticulously. He also seemed to hear her voice, her fierce tone reminding him of someone who used to raise her voice at him before like this. Due to this woman, the memories appeared close, but also distant, making him feel so restless to take a look at her face.Sadly, whenever he tried to open his eyes to see who it was and to check if she was that person, a heavy feeling of drowsiness would always strike him, preventing him from even take a sneak peek at her face. Before sinking to sleep again, all he would remember was her long straight black hair that falls like a waterfall behind her. It was very beautiful. So beautiful that it even appeared in his dreams...Unknown whether the gods wanted to torture or reward him in his sleep, he saw that long and beautiful black ha

    "Sarmiento, did Aura give you an update?" she asked her bodyguard, masking the unease in her face and heart."Sorry, Miss. She said there is really nothing even after she hacked all the CCTVs around and in between the possible routes from his home to the basketball court." The man also shook his head and stared at his boss, worry evident from his eyes. "Miss, I'm not sure if he's just unluckily victimized. However, the perpetrator's means are so clever and efficient that even I who came from the military was awed."No more elaboration was needed. Irene understood that he was advising her not to involve herself with the guy anymore."I know what I'm doing, don't worry." The girl gave the other a small smile, then stood up from the monobloc chair.It was because a doctor still in his green operational gown, walked in so Irene got up from her seat and greeted him."How is he, Doc?""He's now at least brought back from half-death," replied the slightly haggard-faced man. "However, his sta

    It didn't take long for the answers to come out of the pretty girl's mouth."Me, the doctors and nurses, and my assistants.""My parents?"Irene hesitated for a while, weighing whether her act of not informing his parents was an offense or not. In the end, she honestly shook her head."I just want to say, I did not notify them, thinking your case is so weird and mysterious. I'm quite guilty of doing something out of my own volition even though I should actually not concern myself with you anymore. But because you saved me, in a sense, yesterday, I decided to do you this favor. I'm sure you don't want them to worry so much and know that you are suddenly found heavily wounded in a basketball court far from Southern Jasper."Eithan was quiet was for some time, most likely digesting her statements and excuses. She didn't know what was running in his mind, but her brows furrowed when the young man began to tremble while clutching the white blanket tightly. He didn't seem like he would be c

    "You know for yourself that I don't have any killing intent towards you. But. Fine. I'll let her physically stay."And then Eithan could only stare blankly as the short-haired woman by his bedside hypnotized Irene Middleton that no one visited him today and she would not be hearing anything or seeing anything until she leaves."You know that something is off about him, right? So in order to not be implicated in whatever mess he got into, you will forget everything you witness today, including my appearance and voice.""You did not see and hear anything today.""You did not see and hear anything from the moment I entered this room until I leave."He saw her in action already twice. But he still couldn't help the feeling of dislike and disbelief towards how her ability works.With a serious expression on his face, he met the woman's stares. He then heard her say."It's a late greeting. But a good day to you, Eithan Meyer. I was supposed to bring you away yesterday. But I had to change p

    *******************If Agatha heard what his AI had said, she would have probably murdered Eithan here and there out of anger and envy. Thankfully, she didn't, so she only continued looking at Eithan' reaction. On the other hand, the guy went silent, not knowing whether to be pleased that a half-host had that kind of privilege. However, he did feel relieved that even if he didn't do whatever it wanted him to, he wouldn't suddenly find himself losing a limb or an eye.His eyes darted back to the woman and felt pity for her for quite some time. Agatha caught sight of it and felt uncomfortable.She spoke up again."I didn't tell you that so you'll pity me. You're more pathetic than me, for your information. You have to change your mentality soon if you don't want to die, especially now that you see how unreasonable and crazy the other hosts are."Silence ensued between them after. Eithan fell into deep thoughts as something within him was triggered wh

    If there was one thing which Agatha enjoyed while on the way back to Alina City, it could only be the every-changing, breath-taking scenery along the way.From miles of fields of green to tall skyscrapers, intersecting crossroads and flyovers, drifting clouds, barren zone complemented by the impending sunset and towering mountains.Sometimes the car would pass by a beautiful lake or natural rockeries, and she would be compelled to watch with wide eyes as elegant birds spread their wings and dance above the water, or an assortment of different flowers adorning the lakeside or the park nearby laid before her.There were simply many sights to marvel at, declaring that this world was at least still corporeally so beautiful.Smiling slightly at all of these, she thought, 'This is probably the wonder of going on a trip. It's normal to discover things that can make eyes sparkle in amazement.''Unfortunately, most wondrous places are only breathtaking at first glance.' She pursed her lips, th

    On the flip side, inside Paul and Agatha's unit, one of the two men finally broke the silence that reigned upon them for so long. Opening his mouth and eyeing the young man piercingly, Fred let out a low voice showing undisguised wariness and hostility."So lad, how the hell did you guess who I am?"When Paul brought down his cup of tea, a part of his hand made contact with the tabletop, the coldness from its surface transferring a bit to his skin. Outside, it was already dark and silent. The silhouettes of the other buildings and billboards were barely visible from the window. Up in the sky, bright stars twinkled softly.Inside the room though, the conversation between the two had long proceeded, and it was nowhere near the peacefulness of the scenery outside. It got to the point where Paul's face could only be as cold as the person sitting in front of him, if not colder, after all his efforts to make the current situation as pleasant as possible went down the drain.The two simply

    When the troops of the God’s Domain stepped onto the Imperial Capital’s soil, the common folks on both sides of the road sprinkled fragrant petals from within their hands. As for the guardsmen that were standing above the city walls, they set off festive fireworks, and the melodious sound of a trombone resonated throughout the entire horizon.The sky was ravaged with fireworks as they blossomed above in broad daylight. Even if it was still daytime, after undergoing the modification of magicians, the fireworks still blossomed with radiance that was dazzling to the eye.The monarch of the Long Xuan Empire personally brought a troop to welcome the sage, and when everyone prostrated down in worship, the monarch welcomed the sage into the Imperial Palace.The liveliness that was accompanied by the clamor was

    When Taka made her move on the Suzaku Clan, due to the theory that ‘one shouldn’t do anything to harm one’s neighbors’, she had only had a little test of her skill and had not been too heartless by exploiting them too much. As for the other three big clans, however, it was an entirely different story. She saw no reason for reservation so she basically went full force on themThe reason for her doing what she’d done was to truly seize an opportunity that had presented itself! Her ferocity had exponentially increased until it was capable of making one’s hair stand up in anger.For example, on a certain young master’s bedside that was from the Azure Dragon Clan, where the 7-star sword was hung, the lavish scabbard of the sword had been entirely cleaned of its dazzling precious stones and its gilded golden ornaments was not

    Ryu, on the other hand, figured that he would not be able to afford to have another mishap inside his own household, especially not before they were able to secure the invitation of the sage. Thus, he immediately sent his most trustred people to have the Snow Spiritual Fox delivered to the God’s Domain. Not long afterward, he then received information that the other party had arrived from the God’s Domain.In ten days, the sage of the God’s Domain would personally proceed towards the Long Xuan Empire, to the Suzaku Clan, in order to rouse the Phoenix.

    On the flip side, Taka stood at the entrance of the Qilin Auction House. Upon seeing the rear view of the attendant leaving, Taka’s hand subconsciously reached out to touch that little face of hers that had changed beyond recognition.The result of the low-level face-altering potion was pretty good. Although the effectiveness was shortened by that bit for that given period of time, it was just enough to conform to her requirement for the three hours were enough for her to have those goods delegated. If there was even more effectiveness for a given period of time, she truly would not know how she would carry that kind of face back to the Suzaku clan.The present Taka’s facial appearance was slightly better when compared to her original and she figured it was due to a huge difference in skin care regime. Not only was her skin right now was slightly fa

    Since she had already set the Qilin Auction House as the target, Taka then couldn’t help but make the next step of planning. Although there were very less people who had seen the shame of the Suzaku clan, it was hard to say that she would not be recognized by the people of the Qilin clan at other locations sometime later. Therefore, Taka had decided on the spot to go to another auction house in advance and used the money that she had and bought a few bottles of face altering potion.The face-altering potion was a rather common kind of medicine and it can be divided into three grades which were the ‘low’, ‘middle’ and ‘high’. Different subdivisions of the face altering potion, of course, would all have a varying duration depending on its grade. Likewise, the duration of its ability to hold a disguise as well their price would have even more disparity. On that night,

    As of now, Taka’s main problem was precisely money!The only sole thing that made Taka rejoice was that she had picked a proper ‘occupation’ for herself at that time, the godly thief, don’t you think so?! With regards to her, this kind of thing called money was like a rock on the floor, that could be seen just about everywhere. If she had not widened her horizons at that time by being a hitman, a spy and so on, it would have been very likely that she could only silently stay at that dim corner and constantly dawdle about there!“Isn’t it just 30000 pieces! You can be at ease for by the means of this young master’s skill, I will definitely make you eat till you feel like throwing up!”With regards to her workmanship, Taka was quite confident in herself.

If you want to become stronger, then you have to continue to undo the later seals. In this way, not only you can continue advancing but also, those strength that was previously inhibited would subsequently gush out.’ Linux’s voice was still the same as before where it was tranquil without any ripple and a hint of chilliness was carried together.“Then, what is needed to undo the second layer of seal?” Taka asked.Linux went silent for a moment and then only said one statement, ‘Demonic Beast’Demonic beasts were vicious organisms that were scattered everywhere across the Radiance Continent and resided

    “Taka. You have fairly done well!”Agnar distressingly looked at the daughter of his which was still at the bosom. If it was not for the fact that Ryu was here at this moment, it was very likely that he would have already long ago pounced Taka and ripped her apart into fragments.As Abiri had Taka protected behind his back, he looked at Agnar and said,“Second uncle, why do say such a thing? Just what had this matter got to do with Taka?”“How could it be that she is unrelated to this matter? Jesse was injured in her room and it is very clear that it is this vile spawn that has harbour this evil intention wanting to injure Jesse!”No matter how Ryu was to think about it, Agnar had always fr

You are simply just a trash! Idiot! Even the most inferior servant within the mansion is one hundred times stronger than you! You simply do not deserve to have Brother Abiri’s items!”Gripping her fist tightly, Jesse tenaciously glared at Taka who was sitting on top of the bed where within the eyes of hers was the unwillingness that had practically burnt away all of her rational
