Dominance of the Forgotten God of War
Alex Verlaine was a walking, talking blood-bag who only existed to donate plasma to his ailing brother-in-law. His selfless love for his wife is repaid by betrayal and his sacrifices mocked and ridiculed by his mother-in-law.
But when Alex discovers his wife never loved him and is already in the arms of another man, he casts his veil aside and reveals his true identity as the Legendary Miracle Maker.
They treated him like a servant, now he is back to make them kneel like slaves.
They called him a penniless loser, only to discover that he was the wealthiest man in Alexandria.
"Just who are you really?" Felicia asked in a trembling voice, her face rapidly losing color.
Alex looked into her hazel eyes and breathed like a man possessed, "I am the God you will kneel to from tonight, or watch your whole world burn to ash. I am Alexandria's beating heart, and the only one who can save your dying brother."
Felicia clasped her hands, falling to her knees in submission. "Please forgive me. I was wrong to insult you. My family needs you. Please give me another chance!"
Alex grabbed her face, squeezing her flushed cheeks, and whispered in a husky voice, "Then beg me like you mean it!"

Chapter: 403. Race to Ottava IslandJust when Mitch thought he had no way out of this mess, Major Monroe offered him one last lifeline.Landing in Nexus was sure to land him in troubled waters as soon as the authorities caught wind of it.Ottava, on the other hand, was a small, isolated, tribal island just 12 miles away from Alexandria’s western coast, and all he needed to do was take a boat to get there.Mitch looked behind him and frowned as the recon chopper continued on course, despite having a cracked windshield and a very dead pilot.He knew he had to throw the chopper off him before he could make his way to the island.“We need to land right now!” he hollered at his pilot.“What? Right now?” The pilot guffawed. “Are you completely insane? We are nowhere close to any helipads or airports!”“I don’t care. Make an emergency landing!”“No freaking way. I don’t care about your money. We are not landing until we reach Nexus City!”Mitch didn’t argue.Instead, he pulled out his combat knife and levelled it against the p

Chapter: 402. Choppy SkiesRaziya used her underworld contacts to get hold of a scouting chopper and a pilot.“Maybe I should come with you, Commander.”But Alex shook his head. “No. I’ll try to intercept Mitch’s chopper in the sky. But if he manages to land, I need you on the ground. Take my private jet and head to Nexus City. You are my backup plan.”Raziya crossed her heart and bowed.“I won’t let you down, Commander.”Raziya sent Alex all the details of the private aviation firm from which Mitch had booked the chopper before heading off.Once Alex’s recon chopper was airborne, he reached out to Skybound’s Manager.“Mr. Ezekiel, I need a favor.”“Of course, Mr. Verlaine. Anything for you.”“I want to know everything about the private chopper that left Glenmonte right now with a client who offered you 1 million for the ride. Who’s the pilot? What’s the course? And how long will the flight take?”Ezekiel consulted his flight tracker and answered all the questions one after another.The chopper was bound for th

Chapter: 401. Under the Blazing Rubble“Commander…I think I know where Mitch Banner was headed,” Captain Williams spoke in a low voice, his eyes glued to the blazing building guzzling out smoke. “The Kronos Tech main office. It’s on fire.”Alex switched on the TV in his car, and the news flashed the terrifying headlines of the massive explosion at Kronos Tech.“Head to the Northern Mountains right away and secure Lucy!” Alex commanded. “I can’t take any chances.”With those final instructions, Alex stepped on the gas and took the next U-turn, veering into the expressway.Setting the course for Kronos Tech’s office building, he reached out to Raziya.“Get to Remington Avenue as soon as you can. I need eyes on the road!”As he disconnected the call, another name flashed on his screen.It was Governor Phillipe Du Monte on the other end.“Mr. Verlaine, I just woke up to the news of the terrible explosion at Kronos Tech’s main office. It was a horrific accident. Are you alright?”“I am fine. And it wasn’t an accident!”“What?”

Chapter: 400. Portside ShowdownThat call put Raziya on high alert.Without a second thought, she informed Alex.“Commander, I think Mitch Banner just got away. He called on Syed’s phone a minute ago. He knows we’re hunting them!”Alex was just flying back to the beach when he received Raziya’s call.He went straight to the jet ski store and discovered that Saldano Chavez had been shot in the head and Mitch Banner was nowhere to be found.“This is bad. We can’t let any of these bastards get away. Even if one of them makes it out of here alive, he could put thousands of lives in danger. Raziya, I need you to find Mitch Banner. Do whatever it takes!”Handing out a new mission to Raziya, Alex called Captain Williams.But despite trying a dozen times, he didn’t pick up.Alex understood that Captain Williams was probably already on his way to the James Reddington Port. And he had no clue the enemy already knew they were being hunted.“Damn it, Mason! Pick up your phone!”Up until now, everything had gone perfectly accord

Chapter: 399. Death from AboveLed by Syed Akram, the second team of insurgents went around the Cape of Black Gold and arrived unchallenged at the Whaler’s Harbor in Cobalt Cove.Once their boats touched down at the pier, Syed ordered his men to grab their guns and strap up for the road ahead.Their goal was simple: attack Cobalt Cove’s mining infrastructure and shatter the nation’s backbone.Geared with Kevlar jackets and assault rifles, the men reported to Syed, ready for action.“Remember our objective, everyone. Our goal is to hit them hard and disappear without a trace. We must inflict as much damage as possible and then return to our boats. But first, we need to pick up the explosives from our contact.”With those final instructions, Syed pulled out a second, older cellphone and typed in Mitch Banner’s number.The phone rang nine times, but no one picked up.Syed tried a second time, yet the result remained unchanged.On every other mission, the standing instructions were always to proceed after verbal confir

Chapter: 398. Bayside ButcherThe ship anchored in the bay would have caused quite a stir in the daytime, but since it was past midnight, there was hardly a soul around to impede their mission.Father Ferdinand and his men set up a defensive perimeter, with mounted machine guns aimed outward to keep any snooping Coast Guard patrols at bay.Meanwhile, the drone operators built a control platform in the middle of the deck.“Status report!” Father Ferdinand shouted.“RADAR and echo-navigation systems activated. Performing Geo Scan now,” the first operator replied.“Target located and marked. Drones are ready for launch,” the second operator added.“Remember, New Nevada isn’t just any ordinary city. It is a renewable energy production and storage hub. That place is protected by state-of-the-art air defenses and RADARs. We need to overwhelm their defenses before we can hit our targets,” Father Ferdinand responded.“Distraction Unit ready for launch. 50 Drones in a scattered formation, equipped with flares,” the first o

Chapter: Choose your fate“I never really thought the boy had it in him to keep going after he lost his home,” someone observed in a calm, benevolent voice. “I must admit his resilience is quite impressive for a mortal. Were it anyone else in his shoes, the ending would have been a lot different.”“I knew there was something about him right from the day he was born. Alas, his mother never got the chance to see him grow up,” a feminine voice stated wistfully. “The question remains, what must we do with him now?” the male voice questioned.“I think it is time to leave the choice in his hands,” a second feminine voice spoke aloud. “Wake up, my dear child. Your mortal troubles cannot touch you here. Wake up and choose.”Groggy and disoriented, Ezra slowly parted his eyelids and immediately squinted as the bright white light flooding the room smarted his eyes. Still dizzy and weak, he somehow rolled over and gasped.“Where am I? What happened?” “You are safe inside the Hall of Wandering Souls,” a measured feminine

Chapter: Sins of Thy Father“The hour of darkness descends upon this world like a shroud, and the bleeding moon beckons the Lord of Decay to reclaim his lost domain. Come forth and ascend the throne of darkness, my Lord!”Ezra’s heart pounded inside his chest like a caged animal, and his head throbbed in pain as he heard muffled words shouted in the distance. Lying in a bloody puddle on the black marble floor, he parted his droopy eyelids and saw Lord Wilhelm standing behind the altar and Lady Lillian facing him on the other side.Though Tanya’s face was hidden from view, Ezra could see her supple white fingers tingling as her delicate arm dangled from the stone altar. She was still alive, but Lord Wilhelm was already anointing the ceremonial dagger forged from infernal obsidian and preparing to plunge it into her heart.“You…cannot do it. You need the crimson moon to…summon Zepheroth,” Ezra said, fighting the pain.“The hour of our Lord is nigh. And all celestials shall obey his will,” Lord Wilhelm continued cha

Chapter: Heroes never winThe enchanted nock gun vibrated with elemental energy as Jasenki loaded it with enchanted rounds. The glyphs carved into its stock shimmered and dazzled as he aimed at Ezra.“Scream for me, Ezra!” Jasenki yelled, pulling the trigger.Bang! Fwoom!A fiery barrage lit up the dark pavilion as fifteen fireballs erupted from the silver-dusted barrels. The first hit burned Ezra’s left sleeve, setting his tattered leather jacket ablaze, and the rest of the fireballs charred his white shirt, burning his skin.“This gun was forged by the best Gunsmiths in Stonewell, and enchanted with the rarest of ancient glyphs. No one can withstand its power!”Jasenki reloaded his weapon and fired again, unleashing another flaming barrage.But this time, a barrier of flames erupted around Ezra, cocooning him within an elemental shell.All fifteen fireballs exploded into sparks as they collided with the flame barrier, leaving Ezra unharmed.“Damn you, Ezra. Keep trying your tricks and see how long you can su

Chapter: Lovers in CrimeEzra looked at the two Spectral Companions hovering behind Jasenki and Cecilia and realized these spirits weren’t obtained from their ancestral artifacts. “I see you have abandoned your family relics,” he said, carefully analyzing the two specters with his Dragon Eye skill. “These spectral entities are gifts from the Lord of Decay,” Jasenki replied, raising his head with arrogance. “I bet you have never encountered anything so powerful before.”“Go on, Ezra. Call your little Spectral Basilisk, and let us see if it can stand up to our companions,” Cecilia mocked, casting a disdainful glance at Ezra’s tattered brown jacket and muddy black boots. “You still look as beggarly as before. I suppose some things never change. I am so glad I rejected you when I did.”Suddenly, Ezra’s eyes glinted, and his pupils brightened with a bright blue flame that blazed with magic energy. The scar on his chest glowed through his shirt, revealing his true power.Reaching inside his jacket, Ezra pulled out

Chapter: Hour of JudgmentFollowing the glowing trail left behind by the Spectral Beholder, Ezra avoided the rot vines squirming in the mire, and the Medallion of Purity hanging over his chest shielded him from the swamp's corrupting influence.Dark geysers erupted around Ezra, spewing molten tar several feet in the air and filling the swamp with a sulfurous haze. The choking odor brought tears to his eyes, but he pushed on through the vaporous veil.The Spectral Beholder led Ezra to a small patch of dry land surrounded by rotting oak trees. As he stepped onto the elevated mound, he spotted a fiery blue orb floating in the distance.Ten more orbs appeared out of thin air, floating through the foggy darkness. At first glance, they looked like glowing power crystals, but as Ezra took a closer look, he realized these orbs weren’t floating crystals or fireflies, but Elven Wisps.The Elven Wisps were unique spectral entities only found in the Violet Everglades. Unlike Banshees and Spectral Wraiths, the Elven Wisps w

Chapter: Lady of the SwampA weary traveler lost inside the Violet Everglades was an easy prey for the creatures of the dark, and Ezra had just encountered one such nefarious entity. But instead of fear, his eyes lit up with a strange hopefulness.“You called out to me in Tanya’s voice, so you must have seen her passing through. Point me toward the Fountain of Chaos, and I won’t kill you,” he spoke in a cold, emotionless voice, without even turning to look at the creature creeping toward him.The creature laughed at his words and rushed through the darkness, moving like a shadow to play with his mind. Her voice echoed from different directions as she disappeared like smoke and danced around Ezra.“You are in my home, youngling. The dark ones told me you’d be coming,” she cackled. “But you won’t be walking out alive. So, forget about your friend and save yourself if you can!”As Ezra stood there motionless, a howling shadow rushed past him and gathered on a dry patch of grass overgrown with violet tulips that glo

Chapter: A delicate friendshipAs Zi Han and his friends left the restaurant, Feng Xiao thanked him for the treat and wished him good luck for this upcoming match. “I am confident that you can pull off another magnificent win, but you must find your edge before the match begins,” he advised, before bidding him good night.Once the boys had left, Bridgette and Daisy cosied up to Zi Han again.“It’s already too late. My house is pretty far from here,” Bridgette said, making a puppy face at him. “You wouldn’t mind if we spent the night at your place, would you?”“I…could just drop you off if you—”“I told you he doesn’t consider us as his friends,” Daisy cut in, pulling Bridgette by her arm. “Zi Han still thinks we are trying to take advantage of his kindness.”“I understand.” Bridgette looked away and turned to go. “Wait. It’s nothing like that!” Zi Han called them back. “You can stay the night. I have plenty of extra rooms at my place.”Bridgette smiled faintly, with her back still toward Zi Han. Her act had foole

Chapter: The Oriental ConnectionZi Han read the name again before glancing at the details scribbled under it. Ingrid wasn’t just a smart businesswoman, but a cultivator as well. And shockingly enough, her Sacred Art was also Elemental Manipulation.“Do you know why I asked Bridgette to suggest this restaurant for our celebration?” Feng Xiao asked.Zi Han’s brow furrowed, and his voice turned dead serious as he looked at Feng Xiao. “Why?”Feng Xiao leaned over the table and whispered, “Because your opponent owns Oriental Delights. She uses the restaurant to source rare ingredients required for brewing her most potent potions. It’s an easy way to keep things out of the public eye and conduct business with utmost secrecy.”Zi Han couldn’t believe that Ingrid not only owned a restaurant in Zhuxin but also carried out her secret business deals right under their noses. It was just the perfect front for smuggling rare herbs and spices without causing a stir.All this new information made Zi Han realize that even though the

Chapter: Flipping the scriptLisa’s wild accusation infuriated the manager. He couldn’t believe a mere waitress like her could insult such a high-profile customer.“That's enough! You’re fired! Don’t freaking show your face in this restaurant again!” he shouted, showing her the door.“But I did read them the menu!” Lisa cried out indignantly. “Just listen to her lie. She has been standing here like a mute mannequin for ten minutes now,” Bridgette joined in, taking Zi Han’s side. More than defending her friend, she enjoyed watching the lowly waitress make a fool of herself in front of the manager.Even Yutai and Lefan got in on the game without any invitation.“I don’t think a waitress has been this rude to us before,” Yutai said.“Perhaps she is too lazy to attend tables,” Lefan quipped. “I am surprised more people haven’t complained about her till now.”Seeing all her friends joining the fun, even Daisy got down and dirty.“You should teach your waitress how to behave with customers. She is the most obnoxious an

Chapter: What goes around, comes around“Why the hell are you staring at Han like you’ve never seen a good-looking guy in your whole life?” Daisy scoffed, giving Lisa the condescending side-eye.Bridgette noticed Lisa’s shell-shocked expression as well. But she couldn’t tell if she was genuinely astounded by Zi Han’s appearance or if it was something else.“Hello!” She snapped her fingers in front of Lisa. “Aren’t you supposed to greet the guests and guide them to their table?”“I think this one is still under training,” Yutai sneered. “We should ask for another waitress who knows basic etiquette.”Lisa quickly came back to her senses and snapped out of her stupor. “I am so sorry. I just thought your friend looked awfully familiar to someone I used to know.”“Who was this friend of yours?” Zi Han asked, stepping forward. “Tell me about this friend. Did he used to work here with you?”At first, Lisa had thought she was just thinking too much, but hearing Zi Han’s voice, she realized it wasn’t a case of mistaken identity. This

Chapter: A dish best served coldBefore the next lecture could start, Zi Han excused himself and walked out of the classroom. Making his way to a quiet corner overlooking the cafeteria, he dialed Chef Roland’s number.“Hello. Who is this?”Since Zi Han had switched to a private number, the chef had no idea who was calling. However, since the name was hidden, he automatically assumed it was someone important.“Hello? Can you hear me?” he repeated. “I am Chef Roland Jenkins from Oriental Delights. How may I help you today?”Zi Han waited a while longer, testing the man’s patience just for fun.“I am going to disconnect if you have nothing to say. It’s the middle of the day. We are awfully busy here, so please—”“Good afternoon, Mr. Roland,” Zi Han spoke at last. “I was hoping to make a reservation at your restaurant. I hear it’s a pretty upscale establishment.”The head chef cleared his throat and put on his best behaviour.“You have heard right, sir. Oriental Delights is among the best fine dining experiences in the ci

Chapter: Campus HeartthrobThe next day, as Zi Han returned to college, the whole campus greeted him with roaring cheers and a loud round of applause. By defeating the cultivator from the School of Lunging Shadows, he had brought honor to the entire college and proved his worth as a martial artist.Even the principal came out to greet him with a friendly smile. “That was some incredible performance. The best I have seen in years,” he said, shaking Zi Han’s hand. “We are honoured to have a cultivator like you study in the Argos College of Commerce. You have already made our hearts swell with pride, but I am confident you are made for even greater things.”“I just did my best,” Zi Han replied politely, showing little emotion.This gesture broadened the principal’s smile, and he patted Zi Han on his shoulder. “I like your confidence. Keep training, and the college promises to support you in every way possible. You can skip your lectures whenever you deem fit, and I will find someone to do your assignments as well.
