Chapter 72
The sun was setting behind thick clouds when Eddie drove into the industrial district. The sleek glass towers of downtown gave way to old concrete buildings and empty warehouses. He parked his car two blocks away and walked the rest of the way, dressed in jeans and a plain jacket, nothing that would draw attention.Calix Therapeutics. The name was barely visible on the faded sign outside the building. According to Thomas's research, the company had gone bankrupt eight months ago, right after John Mark's acquisition. But the building was still standing, still locked up tight.Eddie pulled out an old ID badge - one of dozens Thomas had found in a data breach from the company's final weeks. Most companies would have deactivated these immediately, but in the chaos of bankruptcy, small details got forgotten.The badge reader beeped green, and Eddie slipped inside.The facility was mostly stripped clean. Equipment gone, files erased, anything valuable removed. But Eddie had learned that peo
Chapter 71
The next morning, Eddie woke to the sound of his phone buzzing with news alerts. The city was stirring, and beneath the surface, things were already shifting. The roundtable had been kept quiet in the mainstream media, but people who mattered were talking. And now his name was attached to whatever was coming next.He made coffee and sat down at his computer, pulling up the footage from last night. The micro-camera in his cufflink had caught everything - every word, every glance, every nervous twitch. He'd learned a long time ago that the most important conversations happened in the spaces between words.Eddie replayed Dante's dismissive remarks, watching how the man's eyes never quite matched his concerned tone. Then he focused on the other faces around the table. Most had reacted predictably when Sophia mentioned Blackworm - shock, fear, disbelief. But there was one man who had caught his attention.Dr. John Mark, pharmaceutical magnate from Southeast Asia. When Sophia had said the w

Eddie stood in his living room, holding Sophia's letter, the city's quiet hum drifting through his windows. He read the note again, her elegant handwriting sharp against the cream paper. "You're not invisible anymore. You might as well sit at the table."He set the letter down and walked to the window. The streetlights below cast long shadows, and he could see people moving through the night, unaware that their world was about to shift. His anonymity was gone. Whatever quiet life he'd built was over now."Shit," he said to himself, running a hand through his hair. "Here we go."The next morning brought chaos. Eddie's phone buzzed non-stop with calls from reporters, bloggers, and people he'd never heard of. He ignored them all and made coffee, scrolling through the headlines on his laptop."Mystery Investor Linked to Young Empire." "Sophia Young's Secret Partner." "Who Is Eddie Maxwell?"Thomas called around noon, his voice high with panic. "Eddie, they're saying you're some kind of hi
Chapter 69
Eddie walked out of the banquet hall beside Sophia, feeling like a thousand pairs of eyes were burning holes in his back. The night air hit his face, cold and sharp, but it wasn't as cold as the silence between them. Behind them, he could hear the whispers starting up like a wildfire. "Well, that was something," Sophia said, her voice calm as always. Eddie didn't respond. He kept walking, but he could feel the crowd inside still watching through the windows. Clara was probably still standing there with her mouth open, trying to figure out what the hell just happened. And Gerow? Eddie could picture his face right now - that fake smile finally cracking. "You want a ride?" Sophia asked when they reached the parking area. "I'm good, I'll get an uber" Eddie said, pulling out his phone to call a cab. But before he could dial, he heard footsteps behind them. A group of people had followed them outside, phones already out, some trying to look casual while they took pictures. "Eddie," Sop
Chapter 68
A strange ripple of astonishment rushed down the spine of the blue banded hand man when he noticed that he had just been rescued by Eddie.His eyes popped out from his sockets in shocks. Leo who was still groaning in pain was able to look far ahead at exactly what was happening.Their hearts flustered at the sight of it and their gazes froze almost in instant. Especially Leo.He was the one that had received a blow from this man and could tell exactly how powerful it was.Could it be that Eddie knew about martial arts and had been able to stop that blow with his strength.Leo quickly threw the thoughts of that away from his head. There was certainly no way that it was possible so It could only mean that the man had noy used his full strength in that attack."Don't worry! I don't want you dead yet!" Eddie sad with a pitiful looks that had been directed towards the man The others that still had the privilege to be alive thanks to Eddie gassed immediately they heard these words."Just
Chapter 67
The Lucifer organization was a dangerous web of martial artist known to almost everyone in the world as horror stories.They are portrayed in movies. Some think that this organization of martial artists is nothing more than mere fiction. But they are some that know the reality of these things. Examples of which were Leo. Even the lowest ranking of this organization known as the minors were feared as one of the most dangerous beings that had ever trended on the surface of the earth.And left for that deadly beast that was known as Lucifer himself and that lived on hell mouth, the thoughts of it only were enough to make Leo's face break out into cold sweat.He had not even seen the skills of the masked man and his legs were already watering at the moment."The Lucifer's Hell." He kept muttering to the others who were still lost in the awe of their shock.But they could not properly grasp exactly what he was saying at the moment."Lucifer?" They thought.What exactly was their leader
