The Keepers bowed slightly.“The final binding can begin.”As the scroll was repaired, ancient symbols ignited across its surface. Power hummed everywhere. There were so many lights illuminating from everywhere.“Wow!” Zara looked surprised at what she was seeing. “It's beautiful.”“Yes, very beautiful.” Jayson said, looking directly at Zara. She blushed when she saw that.“You must open yourself,” the Keeper instructed Kendrick. “The scroll is very powerful and it can be tricky. Are you sure you're ready?”Kendrick closed his eyes. “Ready as I'll ever be.”At first, pain surged throughout his body. It was really painful. Zara whimpered in pain when she saw what Kendrick was passing through. After a few minutes, everything became clear. He no longer felt any pain again.Visions flooded his mind. Battle stances he had never learned. Visions from the future which had not yet been written, he could see it. The pulse of life itself.“Hold steady,” Sainz said softly.Kendrick gasped as wa

That's enough dad.” Steven said. He couldn't take it anymore. Their dad was always harsh. There was a time he always wanted to make him proud but he gave up when he saw that there was nothing they could do to ever make him happy. So he stopped. The only reason he was putting up with the man's behaviour was because of his sister. He still didn't understand why the girl was hellbent on getting his approval.“Why are you always like this? Couldn't you just say something nice to us for once in your life?” He asked his father, raising his voice.Bernard looked at his son. He was shocked. “How dare you raise your voice at me? You want me to speak nice, then do something nice. You two are always nagging. Such disappointments.”“We did as you told us to do. We could have destroyed the glue too if not for your unfilial daughter Sainz, everything would have gone as planned.” Steven said fuming.“That's right. It was because of Sainz our plan failed.” Cherry said, agreeing with what her brother

Bernard nodded once. “While you were ignorant of who you were, we planned and made arrangements. Don't worry, I'll make sure to get my nephew a welcome gift.” Bernard smirked. Kendrick took a step forward. “And now, what do you intend to do?” “Now, we'll return and take what belongs to us,” Bernard said. Kendrick stood. “You lost that right the moment you decided that blood spilling of blood was the right solution for you to achieve success.” Bernard laughed. “You’re on to talk. You sit on wealth built by cowards.” “I sit on an empire built by discipline and great men who had potential,” Kendrick replied. “And I’ve surpassed you.” Steven couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to speak up. “You think money and the sacred scroll makes you untouchable?” “I don't know about that but what I do know is that I'm already untouchable," Kendrick said calmly. “And having them all makes it easier to surpass you. It makes me prepared.” Bernard stepped closer. “We are not beggars."

Clinton and Bryan hosted a lavish party, bragging about how they outsmarted Kendrick and how they were rich and wealthy. Their classmates hailed them, happy at how they had deceived Kendrick.“We played him for a fool,” Bryan boasted to a crowded hall. “Every move, every trap, he fell into it. The man can be easily fooled.”Clinton raised his glass. “And now we’re richer than we ever dreamed. Now, everything we want, we will get.”Cheers erupted.“He couldn’t have survived that land without us. We helped him to the best of our abilities. If we had wanted, we could have let him die but what better way to save him just for humanity's sake,” Bryan continued. “And those contacts, what a genius plan. Who would have thought”Someone shouted, “Heroes!”“You deserve your victory. You could have let him die but what better way to make a lot of money.” Another said as others agreed.Another added, “They beat Kendrick at his own game!”Clinton laughed loudly. “He may still be richer, but we outs

Melissa wondered what was happening. The scene in front of her did not look like Kendrick was the one being defeated, instead, it looked like Clinton and Bryan were going to be in big trouble. She looked at the two men and they didn't look sure anymore. Everyone was wondering why Kendrick brought so many people in suits for something as trivial as this.Another lawyer added, “We’ve reviewed all agreements claimed to exist between Mr. Hale and these individuals.”Bryan scoffed. “He promised. We made a deal.”“Indeed,” the woman replied calmly. “And it's legally void.”The room stirred.Clinton snapped, “That’s impossible.”“Not at all,” another lawyer said. “Everything said is true.”“There was an agreement. We made a contract the right way. We didn't lie. It is true. Ask him.” Clinton shouted.“If that's true, why don't you bring proof. Where's the document which was signed? I'm sure that you know that if you make this type of deal, there has to be a written statement along with the

Bryan’s confidence cracked. “You can’t do this to us. At least, not in front of everyone.”Kendrick met his gaze. “You did this. I didn't do anything. This is called falling into the trap you set for someone else.”The lawyer concluded, “In summary, Mr. Hale owes you nothing and so, I hope you leave my client alone or else we'll charge you for harassment.”Silence crashed down.Chuckling, “I'm sure they aren't stupid to go after me again after this.”A guest whispered, “Does that mean…?”“Yes,” Kendrick said. “It does. Clinton Voss and Bryan Norma won't be getting a cent from me because I owe them nothing.”The murmuring began as everyone began looking at them both with disgust.“I can't believe I wasted my time on such rubbish.” a business mogul spat, walking away One by one, all the businessmen began walking away except for one who stood in front of Clinton.“Mr Voss, I'm sure your father would be disappointed. This is very low on you.” Then he walked away.“Wow! That was touching.

The sound of slap echoed throughout the room. Clinton held his cheeks as he stared at his father wide-eyed.“Dad!” He muttered, too shocked to say anything.“What!” The man shouted. “You stupid child, you do know what you've done? How can you be so stupid to be deceived by that nobody?” His father shouted.Clinton was still shocked. He couldn't say anything. This was the first time his father had raised his hand on him. He was always the golden child and now, because of Kendrick, things were changing too. Now, his father raised his hand to him.“You've never slapped me before dad.” Clinton complained.“Stop whining you fool and fix the mess you have created. Do you know how embarrassing it is to go out and everyone is looking at me as the man who gave birth to a son without any sense left in his brain.” Mr Voss shouted, passing round the room. “I can't believe I raised such a fool. Maybe it's because I pampered and spoiled you a lot and it has gotten into your head and made you sensel

After school, Zara and Jayson went to see Kendrick.“You're always missing school. It isn't fun without you there.” Zara pouted.“What about me? I'm there with you , aren't I?” Jayson asked.“What are you talking about?” Zara muttered, looking away shyly. “I heard the news about Clinton and Bryan. They've been given the taste of their own medicine. They didn't even come to school today. I'm sure they are embarrassed.” Zara just rambled and rambled about them. Kendrick just hummed, not paying attention to whatever Zara was rambling about.“I'm actually not bothered about those two. Whatever they decide to do with their lives is none of my business and I honestly do not wish to know anything about them. I'll just treat it like the everyday news I hear but what I'm really interested to know about is,” Kendrick paused, staring at Jayson and Zara. “What is going on between both of you?”“What is?” Zara rushed it, heat creeping through her neck. The tip of her ear was red. “I don't know wh

How do you even choose your friends because I really do not understand how you can make those two fools your friends. Don't you have ambition in life? Couldn't you have been friends with Mr Kendrick Hale?”Paul sighed inwardly before he caught on to what his dad said.“Mr Kendrick Hale? What does that mean dad?”Both father and mother looked at each other for a second.Paul saw the way they exchanged looks and knew they were riding something.“What is going on dad, mum? Are you two hiding something?” Paul asked again.“Such up you punk. Isn't it better if you mind your own business you punk.”“Honey, don't shout too much. We don't want anything happening to you.” Paul watched his mother pamper her husband.“I can't believe that I'm actually jealous right now,” he said, chuckling, making his parents look at him.“What's so funny, you brat?” Mr Brown asked, making Paul roll his eyes.“Why did you actually call me dad?” He went straight to the point.“I hope you aren't friends with those

Bryan parked his car in front of a restaurant. Coming out, he met Clinton.“What are you doing here?” Bryan asked.“I could ask you the same thing.” Clinton looking at Bryan. They both looked tired. The internet is going wild about them and it's not looking like it will stop anytime soon.“Melissa called me here. Said she wanted to talk.” Bryan answered, running his hand through his hair.Clinton squinted his eyes. “Melissa? Why would she call you?”“Bro, how I'm I supposed to know? She called begging me to meet her here. She's been really pestering me lately so I decided to give in and come and see her but why are you asking me all these questions?”“That's because Melissa called me too.”“What?” Bryan asked, not believing a word Clinton said. “Why would she call you?”“That I don't know either. I just had nothing to do other than sitting idle at home and just used the idea of seeing her to stretch my legs.” Clinton answered honestly.“I hope she's not trying to play a prank on us. I
