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. So, the manager didn’t mind it.“Is she really not going to come?” Davis felt down.Just as he was telling the waiter to pack the items he ordered, Tessa entered the restaurant, wearing her business s

    At Cavil Insurance company.Lily Blake was talking with a big client. Her voice convinced the clients to take insurance for their upcoming casino projects.After the clients paid her with a check and left, Lily was kissing the check. “10 million dollars… this is just the start. I’ll suck more from you guys in the future.”The door opened, and an unexpected person entered the room.“D-Delma?” Lily was surprised. “What are you doing here? Did you finally come here to get insurance for your Ordinance Park?”“Why did you revoke the fire insurance for Better Biscuits?” Delma asked.Lily frowned in a bit of anger. “It’s none of your business, though.”“I won’t ask you a third time,” Delma said, her voice turning hoarse. “Why did you do it?”“You think I am afraid of you?” Lily uttered in a commanding tone. “Get lost from my room!”Her voice created hypnotizing sound waves, which could easily control the people’s minds, but Delma just dashed forth and grabbed Lily’s throat and lifted her up.

    Later that evening.In the southern mountains of Salem city.Delma was standing at the mountain top, staring at the sunset.A helicopter was flying by. Trisha jumped down and plummeted through the air like a falcon and stomped down onto Delma.Delma lifted her forearm and blocked the vicious kick. “Krgh,” Delma ground her teeth.The ground beneath her cracked and caved in, creating a big crater around her.From a distance, it looked like a part of the mountain top dented.“You are so angry because I bullied your sisters a little bit,” Delma forcibly pushed Trisha back with brute force. “Then how much more angry should I be for what your brother and sisters did to my fiance?”“You equate my sisters with some random low life trash?” Trisha floated in the sky above Delma.“He’s not trash. You know that he removed your brother’s hair, don’t you?” Delma retorted in a cold voice.Trisha’s eyes slightly widened. “I see. So, it was that bastard on the wanted poster who dealt such a blow to my

    Later that night.Trisha came home, bleeding from her right arm.Lily and Dera quickly rushed over to her. “Sis, did you get our systems back? Did you kill her?”“No, she was well-prepared,” Trisha frowned. “I will get her next time. Until then, be patient.” Saying that she went upstairs.Lily and Dera looked at each other. “If Big Sis can’t help us, should we ask our dad or brother?”“Brother Melvyn locked himself in his room,” Dera said. “He’s not letting anyone except Big Sister inside.”“Let’s tell this to our dad then. If he talks with the Hamiltons, they will give our systems back!” Lily strongly believed.Trisha went to her room and took a few pills which accelerated her healing process.“The super strength or super power system or whatever it is… just what are its limits? I couldn’t push Delma to her limits. I can’t let such a nasty woman become my sister-in-law. This was the perfect time for me. I should have gotten rid of her.”She punched the mirror and broke it.“But it’s

    Delma came home with bruises here and there. Her left thumb lost its fingernail.She applied cooling, healing oil to it, then covered it with a bandage that didn’t stand out.She didn’t want her grandfather to notice that injury and worry about her.It was night time.As she was heading to meet Elmond and tell him about the systems she had taken from Dera and Lily, one of the nurses came rushing to her and said, “Mr. Jake is awake.”Delma immediately rushed over to the right wing to check on him.Jake’s eyes were open, and he was conscious.He still wasn’t able to move a finger, though.“In the process of de-crystallization, we thought you’d lose your eyelids, ears and your private part, but luck was on your side,” the doctor told Jake. “The procedure went smoother, and we were able to keep those things intact. It will take a month or two for you to get your skin back. Until then, you should rest. It’s better if you are put in the liquid tank to speed up the healing process. What do y

    A few days later.Felica was talking with Davis. “I asked Ms. Delma, and she told me she’d make you the CEO of a company.”“What?” Davis was so shocked, he dropped the mobile in his hand and got up from the chair. “Really?”“Haha, yeah,” Felicia said. “And she said you can pick among the list of the companies she’ll refer to. Once you become a CEO of a big company, you are going to receive calls from millionaire families, wanting to marry their daughter to you.”Davis was overjoyed but for a different reason. “Mom, I already have a girl that I like.”Felicia frowned. “Prisha told me. The Blake family’s girl is too much for you. She’s in a different league. I think you should give up.”“You think she won’t look at me even after I become a CEO?” Davis asked.“She’ll still be so much richer than us even after you become a CEO, so why would she look at you any differently?” Felicia asked him back.Her words took the gas out of Davis’ hopes.Felicia patted his shoulder. “There are plenty o

    Prisha ran away to her room without looking back, and along with her also went the hopes that Felicia had in getting Davis married to Tessa and perhaps Prisha getting married to Melvyn.Everything was ruined because of her ignorant daughter Prisha!Felicia could see that Benson was not happy.He just sat still on the couch, not speaking a word or glance at the television.“Only Jake can save us now,” Felicia thought, “but he’s not here. This guy Benson won’t force us to leave this mansion, will he? If someone like him were to ask Delma and Elmond, won’t they give him face and kick us out?”Felicia was already imagining all kinds of worst possible future lines that awaited the Goodheart family.A few moments later, Delma came to meet Benson.Weber took Felicia away, which Felicia didn’t like, but she had no command over Weber, so there was nothing she could do.“What brought you here so early in the morning?” Delma asked.“You know why,” Benson replied.“Did your daughters beg you to br

    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
