CHAPTER 158
Xavier pulled the doorknob with enough force to disconnect it from the door. He quickly stepped out of the way, giving Joshua enough space to land the perfect hit.‘...one,’ the countdown ended, and Joshua hurled the weight at the men. He went after it since he was not willing to give them a moment to recover.The legs of the men froze in place when they saw the weight, until one tapped into his system's arsenal, then he pulled out a sword in which he used to cut the barbell in half.“Shit!”The man stumbled a few meters backward after Joshua slammed his fist onto his chin.“He's…” one of the men began with a bit of uncertainty in his voice. “I think he's the one in that photo.”“Robin, get to general Mendes,” it was the man Joshua had punched a few seconds ago. Just as he rose to his feet, he wiped the blood off his lips, and the neutral expression on his face had now been replaced with an evil glint. “Tell him we have our target here, and if he has to kill the one in his hands, te
CHAPTER 157
“If they ever set their eyes on you then we’d have no other choice than to murder everyone of them,” Xavier said to Joshua between laboured breaths.Ever since he got back Joshua knew the search for him was not over, at least not anytime soon, still, he was still shocked at the fact that a clan was standing before that door, ready to annihilate everything in their way as long as they got what they wanted.‘How did they find this place?’‘How long is it going to take before another clan finds this place?’‘What is going to happen if a war eventually breaks out in this place?’With multiple waves of thoughts crashing onto joshua he held his head in his hands, shutting his eyes.“Do you think they’ll back off without a fight?” He turned to Xavier who was pacing around the room, clearly restless. “Because if I’m being honest, it doesn’t seem that way to me.”“You’re not the only one,” Xavier agreed, peeping through the door to see how things were going between his clan members and the un
CHAPTER 156
It had been two days since Joshua got back to the system’s world, yet, his body was still going under a change. One that frustrated the hell out of him, but each time he was about to let out a curse word he remembered what could have been.How lucky he was to even be breathing.‘Came at a cost at least,’ a bittersweet smile curved his lips as he put on a grey-coloured polo.He might not be able to gain access to his arsenal, and he might have lost his powers… temporarily, but there was one thing that was still as intact as ever.His memory.“Tuesday,” he said, shortly before shutting the door behind him, and when he heard groans and grunts he knew he wasn't mistaken.It was the day for their duels.“You’re here,” Jasper walked away from the entrance while staring at Joshua like it was the first time he was seeing him.In the blink of an eye Joshua got invested in the duel. One between Gina and Matthias.“One hell of a crazy matchup,” he muttered inaudibly before pressing his back on
CHAPTER 155
“We don't know how long before we're launched with another batch of attack so you need to gather all the rest you can,” with Ari's hand around Gina's neck the latter carefully guided her into the room.A sigh of relief escaped Ari when she fell to the bed with her back.“Urgh.”“I expected that groan,” Gina said to Ari before walking over to where she was, pulling her injured arm out, then she began undressing the wound.“Xavier said someone needs to do this,” she whispered to Ari whose eyes were shut. “Yeah,” Ari acknowledged. “He told me he won't be doing it since the healing has already taken a toll on him, so it is what it is.”The silence went on for some time and when Gina was done undressing it she walked over to the chair where she had placed the first-aid box, taking out a roll of bandage and a pair of scissors.“Thank you for saving my life Ari,” those were the first words Gina uttered when memories of the goblins rushed in. “It was a close one.”“I really wish we had a fuc
CHAPTER 154
“I strongly object to this!” A man with a goatee slammed his fist on the table, rising to his feet a second later. “This cannot work!” He yelled once again, pinning his gaze on Valerie.Of the ten members seated across the table including Adrian and Valerie, some strongly supported the proposal while others voiced their objection.Only two remained neutral.“You disliked Benson right from the start, everyone in this place knows that,” he looked around to see if he had any support, and after getting a few nods he continued. “You can send him out, do whatever you want, but putting someone from b-rank in his place?”“I don't think that can work.”Valerie turned to Adrian, then after they whispered a few words she turned to the man.“Ramsey,” she raised an eyebrow at him, then lowered her gaze to Derek who seemed unbothered. “Don't you think it's better to have someone who has come across this man named…” she ran her hand through her hair, but Derek was quick to remind her of the name.
CHAPTER 153
“Looks like he's not going to be a hard one to get if that's the case,” Benson shrugged right after Derek completed the narration on how he killed Joshua.“What rank are you?” Valerie pointed at Derek.“B-rank, why do you care?” She moved her finger to Theodore. “And you?”“C-rank.”An exasperated sigh left Valerie's mouth, and she placed her hand on her forehead. “If someone in b-rank can kill him then why did you announce the meeting in the first place?”Adrian rose to his feet, striding towards Valerie. “Do well to look at the bigger picture here.”“There's no such thing as a bigger picture here,” she gestured towards Derek and Theodore. “Even if there was, the fact that one of them killed him already means he'll just be another walkover for me.”“What do you think about the body that disappeared?”“Don't you think someone might have the ability to clone?” Valerie asked while fighting her thoughts. “You might never know.”“You just want to excuse yourself from this place, that's w
