“What is your aim in coming here?” the men asked, after listening to Shinda's words. “We want you guys to give us a ride to Atlanta city. We’ll pay you any amount you want; all we need from you is a ride, nothing else,” Shinda begged.“Can you pay ten thousand for the lift?” the man inquired, with a scoff. “Wow, that money is huge,” Andraina, who was holding tight onto Shinda’s hands, whispered in surprise as she heard the amount, which the man had called just to give them a lift to Atlanta city.“I will pay. I will give you ten thousand, but I’m not with the money here, nor my phone to wire the transfer, so you have to help us first. Once I get to my city, I can look for a means to get the money for you,” Shinda explained. “Hehe, nobody does such a business these days.”The man laughed, sarcastically. The man paused, then raised a brow. He grabbed the cigarette stick from his mouth, then brought it down, holding it at the middle of his fingers, then chuckled, took it back to his

“Don't worry, you did the right thing. Maybe when he reincarnated, in another life, he would learn his lessons,” Noka replied, grinning.“Thank you for understanding,” Shinda muttered with a smile.“I love your skills, and one day, I'm wondering if you could work for me,” Noka offered.“Okay, I will be waiting for that day,” Shinda replied.Shinda to act cool, deep inside him, he knew he wouldn’t do anything for Noka, and now that he had discovered that Noka’s brother was the one he had killed, he had to get away from Noka. Noka might sound cool about it now, but he could be raging about it later.Just before then, the door pushed open, and a guard came into the room, his breath hastening.“Sir, the lady in the room, she’s in pain.” Shinda knew Andraina was the only lady on the ship, so he stood and dashed outside the room to the room where Andraina was.Andraina was lying on the ground, and her body was slightly shaking in pain; blood slowly moved out from her nose.“Fuck, damn it.”

“Oh god, not those bastards again, those thugs might be the ones who had done this to my room. I don't know why they have chosen to keep frustrating me in my own house. This is getting annoying and unbearable. Anyways, I have no money for them to take, so it's their stress, they got themselves workout for no reason, hehe,” Andraina scoffed. Nathan raised a brow at what she had said. “So.. she didn’t remember that she was kidnapped,” Shinda thought to himself.“What did you remember last?” Shinda asked, but his voice was low, so Andriana didn’t hear what he said.“Huh, did you say something?” she inquired.“I said, What did you remember last?” Shinda repeated.“Ooh, okay.”“The last thing I remember was when I went to the mall, then got home and sat on this sofa,” Andriana explained, pointing at a sofa which was already destroyed.“Then, after that, I fell asleep, only to wake up in a sailing ship. What the fuck is happening? I’m fucking confused,” Andriana added, then sat in frustra

“Wow, so that was what happened,” Hazel’s eyes widened in disbelief as she spoke, her tone low below her breath. “Please, you need to be very careful. You know Atlanta is one of the most dangerous cities, so make sure you calculate your moves, or you could end up in a worse situation,” Hazel warned.After that, she sighed, then stood from the chair she had been seated on, then turned and looked at Shinda. “I need to go see Amanda.”Shinda nodded calmly before giving a reply.“Okay… thanks for the advice.” “—”“I can’t live with this. What the hell just happened? How the fuck is my strength depleting just because I have some stupid flower fluid in my cells? What the hell does this mean?” Nathan wondered in confusion, his teeth gritting.And just then, as Nathan was panicking, a message from his system prompted out again.{Host must defeat the Nuctra within twenty-four hours or lose stamina and strength.}After seeing this, Nathan grew more infuriated, his confusion only deepening.“I

Nathan had completely forgotten that he couldn’t use his system powers in this place. That translucent screen he had seen was nothing more than a notification. It was simply reminding him that he had already used the Elixir of Life in the real world before entering the spiritual realm—and that was the reason he could see his mother, which means his abilities were not back. Nathan wondered how and when exactly he had used the elixir. He was dumbfounded, lost, and left alone in this hollow, endless space with a looming chaos coming from a distance, staring listlessly while waiting for a creature he didn’t even know or understand its very purpose and where it had come out from. “Fucking hell, what's that thing even made off, show yourself, you bastard,” Nathan muttered through gritted teeth, his fists clenched tightly as he awaited for whatever was approaching. All he wanted at the moment was to take down the creature, but little did he know he would be failed by his system. And then,
