Chapter 661
The winged dark-skinned man slowly descended into he was standing between Veronica and her attacker.Everyone who had surrounded Veronica and her parents had to move a good distance backward, spreading the circle even wider as the angelic-looking man descended towards the ground.He was astonishingly ethereal. He stood well over 6”5’ with lean but very defined muscles. His ebony skin glistened under the room’s lighting, especially with the humongous chandelier hanging very high off the ceiling.His face has sharp edges. Chiseled face, Frosty-white dreadlocks that stretched all the way down to his waist. He had the same color as his eyebrows and eyelashes, which further showed that he didn't dye the hair on his body. High-rise nose, and full lips.He looked delectable to the eyes, especially in his leather pants and boots. The outfit was totally giving Punk Rock, with the contrast being the bright white four wings stretching out at ten seven feet per wing.Those four wings moved like

Veronica groaned as she pinched her nose bridge.“Oh, are you fucking kidding me right now. Listen up, Kid. You think I fucked your family over! Well, the feeling is mutual! If I had known that your family was in cahoots with the Skull High Gang, do you think I would have fucking agreed to the kidnapping of that organ bastard's grandmother?! It's because of that very action that has cost me to lose everything in my life!”She raised both her arms sideways.“Now, I'm here as an abandoned granddaughter. I used to be praised and dated within the Whiteridge family! Now, I'm the most ridiculed member of my family! And it's all because I made the fucking mistake of trusting your family member! So…where is my revenge, huh?!”Hearing these words, the crowd that had wanted to beat up Veronica finally calmed down Hearing that she had lost everything, it finally made sense why she's here at all. They realized that they were wrong with their assumptions. She and her parents were truly one of th

At that moment, a voice, deeper than Mikhail's, echoed to the entire hall, causing it to shake as it enveloped the entire space.“Oh? What did I just walk in on?! Tell me, Gigi. What would I punish you for? What are you hiding from me?”Everyone jolted a couple of steps away from one direction. There was such a revering yet fearsome mix of feelings that were evoked as everyone turned their head up to the high, almost hard to see, ceiling, as they tried to find where that booming voice was coming from. They found nothing.Then they felt a shred of aura descend from a certain direction, carrying with it a scent that threatened to knock them unconscious. Their hearts were palpitating and they felt like the air was suddenly getting thinner, and they could barely breathe.“W….What's going on?!”“Fuck, what is that feeling?! I'm scared! I'm fucking-pissing-myself scared!!”Then the footsteps reached them, and everyone turned their eyes to find a tall man, standing about 6”2 in height, walk

Gigi raised her wrist to tap on the watch she was wearing. A couple of seconds later, tens of light bulbs, the size of five soccer balls combined, lit up along the side of the wall she was standing near, the very one she had fallen from after lounging for a bit.These light balls let out mechanical sounds, excreting mists as they seem to detach from the wall that half their body is embedded into.Around ten large lightbulbs dropped to the ground, bouncing on the ground to reveal that their surfaces can shift from solid to a much more leather-like texture - softening and hardening. Then these large balls began rolling around before forming a straight line in front of Gigi.Gigi clapped her hands twice, and right before her eyes, four appendages extended out of these orbs, forming hands and legs. Then what looked like a robotic head also extended from the top.Gigi pointed at the unconscious guests.“Get them to the couches and lay them there. I want them to be comfortable.”The robots

The supreme master sounded tired beneath the mask he had, but his demeanor still exuded so much might. “Then about a decade later, the first pair to reach completion, to my own surprise, were finally born.”His voice lightened up, as if reliving the memories made him feel elated.“Back then, I really didn't hold much expectation for how things would turn out. They were just like any other teenagers that I kidnapped. Well, they were among the batch at the time. Hundreds of teenagers. Many of them died like the wastes that they are. It infuriated me. So many resources wasted. They were limitlessly at my command.”The supreme master took a deep breath.“And then it happened. A teenage boy and girl, both from the slums. They possessed the perfect conditions to evolve. And they did. The male evolved perfectly into a new body. He adapted over and over again, until he touched up on that surface, finally becoming the extraordinary human that was much stronger than the Whiteridge soldier. Th

The two left the Grand Hall of Order to carry out their instructions.Once they were gone, the hall became, and the supreme master turned his gaze to the bunch of sleeping guests, the ones he had knocked out with his overwhelming aura.He flew towards them, stopping above them. He gazed down at them in silence before casually raising a hand.Veronica suddenly rose from where she was placed on the couches, pulled by the invisible force of telekinesis, until she was slumping right in front of the armored man, still unconscious.The supreme master totes his head.“When will you stop pretending? I know you were never unconscious. You've been exposed to murderous intent for way too long, and you've built a natural immunity to its effect.”Veronica slowly opened her eyes, letting out a sigh. Looking down, she was a bit scared as she was held up by the man's telekinesis, but she maintained her composure.“I was sure that I was quite convincing with my acting.”The supreme master hummed.“Yo

“How could you do this to me?! You were planning to kill me, weren't you?! I'm a member of your family, and you tried to kill me?! What test for compatibility?! You weren't testing if I had the willpower to withstand the pain of your evolution experiment?! You were just fucking with me like a sicko!”She allowed a moment of silence to pass before she glared up at him.“Aren't you supposed to be my family?! How could you do this to me?!”The levitating man chuckled with a mocking tone.“First of all, Veronica, I may carry the blood of the Whiteridge family, but I do not identify as one of you. So don't think you can guilt-trip me into doing what you want by using that method. In fact, it would only be detrimentally counterintuitive now that you know.”“Secondly, I did not do what I did to you a while ago just to mess with you. Although it was pretty funny watching you crumble within the first few seconds of the process. But I didn't lie to you at all. What you experienced just now is

The supreme master chuckled as he had read her emotions this time. He seemed to be easing off his guard around Veronica.“You know one of my abilities as a half psychic is being an empath, right? I can also pick up on your state of mind with your emotions. You don't have to be repulsed by the idea of being a mini-me. We're both outcasts of the same family, just different generations.”This reminded Veronica of something she wanted to know.“And which generation are you, Supreme Master? I know you're not my generation. It's impossible. So I'm guessing you're my mother's generation, or... but can you seriously be the patriarch's generation? You don't sound as old as him.” The supreme master sounded like he was speaking with an amused smile on his face when he replied.“How about I let you figure that one out on your own? Once it's time for you to know, you'll naturally find out.”Veronica understood that this man had his reasons for not telling her, but the furious part of her couldn'

The supreme master had his back turned to Veronica, his head facing downward. He said nothing but there was something about his demeanor that gave him away. He was glad to hear those words from someone who shared the blood of the Whiteridge family with him, as well as their shared background. Hearing those words felt like he was no longer fighting the decades of battle alone.Veronica was starting to close her eyes from the drowsiness when she spoke her last words.“Oh! Guess what? I know which generation you belong to. It's the patriarch's. It's the current patriarch of the family, isn't it? You're my granduncle, aren't you?”She hit no word reply, but that only made her smile softly.“Yeah, you know, silence can be the loudest answer ever sometimes, Granduncle.”Then Veronica went into a slumber. This is the effect of the transfusion. It works better when the heart rate is steady, and that usually requires that the patient is asleep.He couldn't help but stare at Veronica.“She tru

In the physical world, Benjamin was working up to the second he heard April's scream. His eyes shot open to find the love of his life already bent backward above the bed, eyes and mouth wide open as an unnatural wind blew wildly around her.Her telekinesis was starting to go crazy and she was unconsciously lifting things around her and causing them to sound with a violent momentum before shaking them against the walls.Benjamin was shocked, but managed to jump out of the way before a shelf that was originally beside him flew straight at his head.Benjamin got off the bed.“April! Babe, what's going on?!”From where he stood, he saw that her wide-open eyes had no irises or pupils in them, as her eyes had probably rolled to the back of her head.“Angel!”At this point, it was clear that whatever was going on with his girlfriend, she definitely wasn't in control.At that moment, both Jason and Anthony heard the commotion with their heightened senses and they rushed over, only to be left
