Flames were everywhere, not just in one corner.

A few workers had rushed out, but some were still inside. Jake didn’t even hesitate to run into the factory, even though people advised him not to.

They already called the fire engine, but it was yet to come.

The flames were only growing bigger, and it didn’t look like something that one or two fire engines could take care of.

Jake could see that different parts of the factor were being burnt, and it didn’t make sense to him.

He saved one female worker who was too afraid to cross the flames and then asked her, “How did this happen?”

But she was in too much of a shock to respond. He told her to go outside, and then he entered deeper into the factory.

Jake didn’t realize it yet, but the flames that were supposed to burn were all fading away before they could touch him.

Jake was able to help more people get out, and then he finally reached his office, which was already burned to dust.

There were no flames there.

However, he saw a person sti

    Jake was checking through the rest of the factory if anyone else other than the manager died or not.But he didn’t find any other corpse.While he was happy that he saved many people, he was also saddened by the fact that the person he had talked to most among the employees in the past five days died.Jake returned to the main office. He kept staring at the manager’s corpse. He didn’t know if he should move it outside or not.As he was hesitating, he suddenly looked around as the flames that were dying began to rise.“What the hell? Why are the flames rising?” Jake was startled, but then he felt a strong presence in the south, toward the backside of the factory.Since he got the soul shedding skill, he didn’t feel anything like this.And this was his first time feeling the soul energy coming from another person, as this was so concentrated.Without the system telling him, Jake knew that this person was bad news.Both of them walked toward each other, with Melvyn leaking out a hot aura

    Jake became a crystalline statue.Just then, Delma and Drake, the chief captain of Hamilton’s forces, arrived there through the back entrance.“Oh, no,” Drake frowned. “We were a step late.”Seeing Jake’s statue, the veins in Delma’s neck bulged. “Melvyn…” she leaped forth.“Don’t, Delma! That fog is dangerous even for you!” Drake shouted.“I’ll kill you right here and now!” Delma threw a punch at the fog. The sheer air pressure from her punch blew the fog away in different directions.But the thought of Jake shattering away from the collateral damage made her suddenly stop.She grabbed Jake’s body and threw it toward Drake. “Take him to the mansion and get him treated!”“Can he still be saved?” Drake wasn’t sure because Jake looked like a crystal statue now.Delma threw a punch down at Melvyn’s chest, but he caught her fist before it hit him. His other hand was covering his face.“Go away, Delma. I don’t want you to see me like this,” Melvyn said. “I don’t want to see myself like thi

    Melvyn came to the sky castle wearing a hood that covered the top half of his face.The head butler immediately knew something was wrong, so he didn’t dare approach Melvyn.One maid carelessly approached Melvyn, “Young Master, you forgot to take your mobile.”She was handing him a mobile, but he slapped her with the back of his hand without even looking at her.Her head turned 180 degrees.She died instantly.Melvyn entered the castle in a hurry, not wanting to talk to anyone right now. He just rushed into his room and locked the door.He stood in front of the mirror and pulled the hood down, which revealed his face which looked comedic now.It felt strange because he was a supremely handsome fellow, but with just his hairs gone, he looked like a joker now.For someone who had cared about every single hair on his head, losing all the hair was a big blow to his ego, confidence, and overall mental health.Unable to look at himself in the mirror, he punched and destroyed it. “I can’t bea

    In the right wing of the hamilton’s mansion, the lead doctor and the scientist of the Hamiltons put Jake in a cylindrical vessel full of translucent liquid that bubbled and melted the black scales on his body.“Will he live?” Drake asked.“It’s a miracle that he isn’t already dead,” the doctor replied. “Nothing is guaranteed until he opens his eyes.”“Is that so?” Drake felt a bit down. “If we had reached there a little early, we could have saved him.”“Don’t worry about the past but plan for the future,” Elmond said. “Tighten the security around the mansion, even if it means we have to hire outside forces.”“You think Melvyn will attack this mansion?” Drake wondered. “If he fails, he loses everything. I don’t think he will take that big of a gamble. Unless he’s sure of his victory, he will not attack. Otherwise, he should have attacked us long ago.”At that time, Delma entered the chamber and looked at the glass vessel in which Jake was there.“How’s he doing?” Delma asked.“Nothing

    Jake’s sister, Prisha, was laughing so hard it sounded like she was snorting.The popcorn fell from the bucket.“I expected this much, but I didn’t think she’d outright lie to get rid of you before your relationship even started,” Prisha wiped the tears from her eyes. “Oh, man. I haven’t laughed this much in a long time.”Davis appeared visibly embarrassed. “Am I not good-looking enough?”“Well, looks alone aren’t enough for some women,” Prisha said. “You should first know her preferences before you approach her. Otherwise, you’d make a fool of yourself. ‘I’m sorry. I have a boyfriend.’ Haha, it’s funny no matter how many times I see women rejecting men with that move.”“Huh, what’s so funny about it?” Davis felt annoyed.“Obviously, she was lying.”“What?” Davis was startled. “You think so?”“Of course. She didn’t even ask you why you called. She assumed it, and then cut you off,” Prisha opined. “She didn’t treat you badly but treated you indifferently. That’s a common approach we us

    Later that night.Delma finished her talks with a few people from the Aeson family.They came to an agreement and then took the Bouquet System from the repository.The bouquet system was capable of giving skills related to flowers and herbs, which would help them in cultivation, extraction of scents and do much more beneficial things.“After one decade, you will bring the system back to the Hamilton family,” Delma told them. “That’s the agreement. Don’t forget it.”“Of course. We, the Aeson family, never break our contracts,” they replied and then got to work.They started treating Jake, using their healing skills, which helped them remove the crystalline shell that covered Jake.However, in this process, Jake lost his skin completely.He looked like lab material that was completely skinned.Delma was finding it hard to watch, but she didn’t close her eyes or look away.The whole process took three hours, and Delma was there throughout.“Jake didn’t get his consciousness back.

    The Loverace restaurant was known for dating among youngsters, especially because it would check through the identity of the lovers and only allows them dates if they have never dated anyone else at that restaurant before.So, everyone dating in this restaurant was guaranteed to have never dated others in that same restaurant before.This may be a small gesture, but this was well received by the society, so Loverace restaurant blossomed over the years.Currently, Davis had been sitting here for over an hour.He had already ordered the items but told the waiter to wait until his date arrived. He already paid the bill for the items he ordered, so the manager didn’t mind even if Davis was just sitting at the table.It might have been an issue if Davis was ugly, but Davis was a handsome man.

    A few months later.Guests from all around the world arrived at Hamilton mansion, their laughter and chatter echoing like music through the opulent halls on this grand wedding day.Many of those who knew Elmond well paid their respects at his grave which was built in the backyard.Jake’s schoolmates were also arriving in helicopters arranged by the Hamilton family, and this genuinely made them proud to see how far Jake had come. They were greeted by soldiers wielding guns who shot at them, not with bullets but flowers.The flowers rained on the guests and rubbed their natural fragrance on them, making them feel like they were entering heaven.The honeyed wedding cake was as big as a swimming pool, and the pools weren’t filled with water but pristine wine.There were top professional photographers capturing images and videos, but there were also world-famous painters who were capturing the essence of the wedding with their speed drawings.The atmosphere around the whole 30,000 acres of

    The next day.Jake opened his eyes and found himself inside his guest room in the Hamilton mansion.He got up from the bed with effort.As he walked, he stopped by the mirror. He still looked like he weighed less than eighty pounds after he had received fluids and recovered overnight.This made him realize that he had really pushed himself to the limits during the fight with Melvyn.After taking a long, deep breath, Melvyn stepped out of the room.He could hear Prisha’s happy voice, saying how excited she was to get an admission into MIT for the psychology department.How the hell did she get an invite from MIT? Jake wondered.Did Delma work behind the scenes and made it possible?At the same time, Davis was telling his parents how he wanted to buy a fast food chain, and so he wanted some capital from them.“I will become successful, and in one or two years, I will make Tessa look at me differently!” Davis told his parents.“If you can catch a trillion-dollar woman with a few million

    “Ethereal Bane Fists!”Poisonous fog blasts rained down on Jake without end, his voice thick just like the swirling tendrils of dark smog. On top of it, Melvyn used the telekinesis power to send big rocks flying at Jake.Jake blocked and deflected as many as he could and tried to break through Melvyn’s defenses.Despite raging in wrath, Melvyn was actively dodging Jake’s attacks, his eyes like chips of obsidian themselves.The fog around him solidified, churning and darkening, hinting at the terrible power it held.“You look cute without hair,” Jake commented, hoping it’d make Melvyn lower his guard.Melvyn’s intensity of attacking increased even more, and this helped Jake land a few hits in.But they didn’t do as much damage as he thought, or at least Melvyn was in too much of rage to be stopped by just any attacks. And he was using his telekinesis ability to reduce the impact of Jake’s attacks while strengthening his own.At some point, the black flames thickened and exploded.“Hell

    A couple of days ago.“Miracles don’t just happen,” Elmond was talking to Jake after soundly beating him during practice. “A lot of unseen work goes before one can pull off those jaw-dropping victories. To defeat Melvyn, you will certainly need a lot of raw power, but more than that, you should be able to suppress your own fears. Otherwise, you won’t be able to beat his fog.”“Suppress my own fears?” Jake looked puzzled. “I don’t get what you mean.”“Why do you think you got crystallized even when you had the shedding system?” Elmond said. “It’s because you couldn’t overcome his fog even when he wasn’t using his full strength.”“Y-You’re telling me.. His fog can do a lot more?”“It’s a world ending power… just like your system,” Elmond stated. “That’s why they’re called legendary systems. There are only a dozen or so systems like yours around the world, starting with the alpha system. When you’re competing at the top level, you’ll need to observe not just your opponent but also yourse

    Delma used the satellite towers she owned to check in the direction Jake and Melvyn had gone.It didn’t take her more than a couple of minutes to spot their location.“They went to Lemuria…” Delma frowned.“The lost continent?” Drake was startled. “Don’t the reptilian hybrids live there?”“I’m heading over,” Delma said and rushed away. “Bring all our forces there!”“What about Benson Blake?” Drake quickly said.“Kick him out!” she yelled.Benson looked quite upset with himself for many reasons. He looked up at Drake. “Let me accompany you to Lemuria. I will help you deal with my son.”“You think I’ll take you for your word?” Drake retorted.“Please!” Benson urged.Meanwhile, on the Lemuria continent.The exchange of attacks between Jake and Melvyn destroyed everything around them.They moved around on the massive content like rays of light.From ashy grounds to gardens of giant olive trees with fruits many times bigger than humans, they kept fighting without bothering about what’s aro

    At Hamilton mansion.Drake started attacking Benson, but Benson’s right-hand man, Jack intervened.“I’ll leave it to you, Jack,” Benson said and walked ahead.Drake and Jack fought viciously along with both the armies without holding back.“Dad, you seriously are not going to destroy the Hamilton family, are you?” Tessa asked.“Move!” Benson waved his hand, creating a gust of hot vaporous wind that pushed Tessa out of his way.Benson then pointed his palm toward the mansion building and released a strong arrow of blue flame, with the intention to utterly destroy the whole building that spanned many acres.But something blocked the flame arrow with both hands.It was Delma.She squeezed the flame arrow with both hands and suppressed it into nothing.Benson looked pissed off. “How could you kill my eldest daughter, Delma? If you had qualms with my son, you should have fought him instead. How could you kill Trisha?”“What sort of bullshit are you talking about?” Delma leaped at him and u

    The captain of guards, Drake, immediately activated a defensive shield around the Hamilton mansion.The missiles launched by the fighter jets couldn’t get past the barrier, but the sky was filled with huge sparks of explosion that were visible not just in the city but from far away places, too.Benson jumped out of the plane and unleashed a flame pillar through the barrier and broke his way inside.He landed in the garden, in the midst of many soldiers of the Hamilton mansion and released a burst of flames in every direction, roasting all the soldiers alive.“Come out, Elmond!” Benson roared. “Show yourself, Delma! Today is the day the Hamilton mansion will bite the dust.”Both Drake and Tessa appeared before him.“Dad, what the hell are you doing?” Tessa asked aloud. “Have you gone crazy?”Seeing the wounded Tessa, Benson’s expression changed. “Do you know what they’ve done to your eldest sister?”Tessa frowned deeply. “She got killed by Brother Melvyn.”Benson was startled for a se

    The next day.Delma woke up, only to hear of her grandfather’s demise.Her hand trembled as she touched the frozen crystal boulder, which was her grandfather.The last thing she remembered was him taking her and escaping from the island, but she didn’t think Elmond would die.What hurt her even more was that she didn’t even get to see Emond’s face anymore, as it had been fully crystallized.Resting her head on her grandfather’s head, Delma cried like a child.Seeing her like this, Weber also cried.Jake was also there, but he just put on a serious poker face, trying to control all of his anger and frustration deep inside so that he could later use it to destroy Melvyn.Elsewhere in the mansion.Prisha was watching television with her mother Felicia.In the live stream they were watching, Melvyn was the chief guest of the city-level school event and was talking on the stage right now.“He looks pretty handsome, doesn’t he?” Felicia opined. “What do you think?”“He’s definitely handsome
