Calvin went home and spent the rest of the day there, only coming out later that evening to visit a nearby cafe for a little snack.He stepped inside, and his eyes immediately flicked towards the menu, but just as he did, he froze, his eyes widening momentarily before he exhaled softly.He turned towards the second table from the entrance, where a single person was sitting, before walking over and stopping in front of it.Looking at the person seated there, he asked, "You know this can be considered stalking, right?"At his words, the young woman sitting at the table and stirring her tea replied, "Stalking? Oh, please, nothing of the sort.I just so happened to take a trip to another city, and just so happened to spot this wonderful cafe and decided to have myself a late afternoon cup of tea. If a certain someone who hasn't been answering my calls over the past few days decided to come out of his apartment, which just so happens to be nearby, and h

"May I ask your name, sir?"The old man raised an eyebrow at Calvin’s question before lowering his head slightly and pulling down his sunglasses, revealing a pair of faintly glowing crimson eyes."Eugene Chase,” he said. “What's your name, kid?"At the mention of that name, Calvin's eyes widened in shock.He knew the name ‘Eugene Chase’.He'd never met Eugene Chase personally, but in his previous life, he'd seen the man from afar on several occasions. Most importantly, the man's surname explained his elemental affinity as well as the high number of fire elementalists among his bodyguards.'The former Head of the Chase family.'Concealing his surprise at the man’s identity and regaining his composure, Calvin replied, "Calvin. Calvin Carter.”Calvin carefully watched Eugene's expression, but the old man showed no particular reaction."Calvin, huh?” he repeated. “How old are you? I'm kind of curious. Like is aid before, you

Before long, the sounds of approaching sirens filled the surrounding streets as police vehicles and EMA units arrived at the scene.The water elementalists amongst the EMA agents immediately began extinguishing the fire left by the exploded truck, preventing the flames from spreading to nearby buildings.Paramedics also arrived to treat the customers and restaurant staff who had been injured by the explosion, while other emergency personnel began assessing the damaged building and securing the surrounding area.The police officers rushed into the restaurant, shouting orders as they entered the damaged dining hall and surveyed the chaos surrounding them."CCPD! Nobody Move! Identify yourselves!”“Keep your hands where we can see them!”The officers pointed their weapons at the people inside, ordering them all to remain where they were, while other officers spread out to circle the area.Calvin clicked his tongue in an

Calvin watched the unfolding situation with growing irritation, his pleasant mood having been completely ruined by the sudden attack.At that moment, another wave of rifle-wielding men in black descended with ropes, their fingers already on the triggers of their weapons.If the attackers opened fire indiscriminately, the screaming ordinary customers would inevitably become casualties.Understanding this, Calvin placed one hand on the floor and sent his darkness elemental energy through the ground, manipulating the shadows of the attackers. The dark shadows rose around their bodies, extending towards their hands and wrapping around their fingers before they could pull the triggers of their elemental energy rifles.All of the new attackers immediately found themselves unable to move their fingers, struggling fiercely against the darkness restraining their limbs.One of the flame elementalists charging towards a rifleman noticed the darkness rising fr

During the days that followed the 31st of August, when Calvin brought down the sword of death upon Cole, he lived his life rather casually.He had a few online video calls with his four frontmen to give them instructions regarding the next directions Carter Corp would be taking. He also had a few discussions with Hubert about his plans to build an office complex on a particular plot of land he was eyeing near Autumn Grove.Calvin instructed Hubert and Harrison to work together to purchase the land and secure it for future use, ensuring that once the construction company he intended to establish was ready, they could begin construction immediately.Outside of these activities, with the National University Entrance Exams approaching in just two weeks, Calvin also spent some time revising the examination materials.The exams were scheduled for the 21st of September, and the results would be released nine days later, on the 30th of September.If Calvin secured the position he was aiming f

Before the crack of dawn, news of the disaster had already spread across virtually every news station in the country, and it was even being reported internationally.The reports covered the explosions on the island, the fires that continued burning beneath the rain, and even after the sun began to shine, as well as the estimated hundreds of millions lost in the destruction of the cargo ship that had exploded, which belonged to the shipping company owned by the Osborn family of Edgard.There was also widespread speculation about what could've caused such a massive explosion, especially after reports emerged about a fleet of helicopters entering the country's airspace and heading towards the cargo ship minutes before the blast.According to eyewitness accounts and available footage, the fleet had been approaching the vessel when the explosions occurred, leaving many people questioning whether the two events were connected.As the hours passed, theories and conspiracy stories began sprea
