57. The Middle Of Nowhere
Elias was still taking in the shift around him, when a large figure suddenly stepped forward from between two stalls. The man was massive. He had broad shoulders stretching the fabric of his coat, his arms was thick with muscle and his presence alone pushed the smaller people aside. “Well done,” the man said, his voice deep and satisfied. “You brought him exactly where we wanted.” In that instant, everything made sense to Elias. All along, everything was nothing but a trap. However, Elias didn’t flinch. He didn’t feel tense either. He simply reached up and removed his mask, letting it drop to the ground between his feet. His face was calm, as he looked around at the people closing in. Then he turned to the girl. “You set me up,” he said quietly. Her knees almost buckled. “I’m sorry,” she blurted out, panicking. “Please forgive me. I didn’t want to do this. I swear I didn’t.” Elias watched her closely. “Then why did you do it?” Tears spilled down her cheeks. “They poisoned Van
56. The Little Spy
After pondering it for sometime, Elias finally agreed to follow her. After all, he wanted answers more than anything else. He thought aloud. Aftrewards, they left the hospital quietly. As they walked, Vera talked A lot. She asked him about the mountains first, how long he stayed there, what kind of people trained him. Then she drifted into lighter questions. Where he grew up, about Vanessa. At first, Elias answered calmly, keeping his tone relaxed, almost casual but along the line, something felt off. She had already said Vanessa told her a lot about him. Yet here she was, digging again, rephrasing questions and circling back to things she should already know. At that point, it felt like confirmation than curiosity. Elias smiled faintly and said, lightly, “Didn’t you say Vanessa already told you a lot about me?” She laughed nervously. “She did,” she said. “But stories sound different when they come from the person themselves. I just want to know what the Crown Bearer is really lik
55. The Nightless City
The attack never got to Elias. The blade was destined for Elias’s back but Elias didn’t even turn around. He shifted his weight slightly and drove his elbow backward with terrifying accuracy, and the impact landed squarely on the twin's chest. The force threw him and his body slammed into the concrete with a sound that made the whole building tremble. Lucien dropped to the ground, staring in disbelief. Then Elias turned slowly and whatever restraint he had shown earlier was gone, with his expression shifting into rage. “I warned you,” Elias said quietly. “I warned you not to mess with me.” He stepped forward. Lucien scrambled backward, trying to create distance between himself and the approaching figure. But Elias moved towards the limp twin, grabbed him by the collar and yanked him up effortlessly, lifting him off the ground like dead weight, his feet kicking uselessly in the air. Elias leaned in close and locked eyes with him. “You had a chance to walk away,” he said evenly
54. The Twins Of Death
Lucien finally lost his composure, rage flashing across his face as he looked down at Corvin’s lifeless body. “How dare you,” he snapped with outrage. “You shed blood in front of me like it’s nothing and you still have the guts to speak!”He lifted his hand and pointed straight at Elias. “Kill him.” The Twins of Death moved instantly. Their fans snapped fully open, the blades glinting as they split apart and circled Elias from both sides. One went left, the other right. Their steps were light, almost floating. Elias exhaled slowly. The first twin struck. The fan sliced through the air toward Elias’s neck, but Elias tilted his head a fraction and stepped back, the blade missed him by inches. Before the twin could recover, the second one came in low, aiming for Elias’s ribs. Elias twisted, grabbed the wrist mid-motion, and slammed his elbow into the twin’s shoulder. The impact sent a dull crack through the building. The twin staggered back, his eyes widening behind the mask. In
53. The Spoilt Heir Wants a Bite
The man walked confidently into the unfinished building, not surprised by the bodies sprawled across the floor. He entered, took a quick glance at Elias, before moving to the window. This was Lucien Virel. The son of one of the top three ruling families of the city. His Family don't just influence business or politics, they decide those who play the game as well. Lucien’s parents sat at the very peak of that hierarchy. Again, his gaze moved across the scene, from the fallen men, to Corvin frozen on the floor, with Elias’s dagger at his throat. Then he glanced at the entrance. As if on cue, two figures walked in quietly, their footsteps so light they barely registered against the concrete floor. They were dressed in fitted black, head to toe. They wore masks that covered their faces. The Twins of Death. They were holding Chinese hand fans, folded neatly. At first glance, the fans looked ceremonial, almost elegant. But anyone who knew better understood the lie in that appearance.
52. A New Bidder
Corvin didn’t stop there. The more Elias listened without reacting, the more he seemed to enjoy himself. He spread his arms slightly and started bragging. “You know,” he said, his voice carrying easily through the building. “I don’t just deal in power, i deal in people too.” Elias’s eyes sharpened. “I move humans the way others move weapons,” Corvin continued. “As in Human trafficking. You know what that means right?” He chuckled and winked.Elias said nothing. Corvin leaned closer and lowered his voice. “And you’re the finest gift I’ve seen in years. A Monarch Crown Bearer with no leash.” He shook his head slowly. “Do you know how much someone like you is worth? Alive or dead?” The wounded man beside him remained still. “When I kill,” Corvin went on, almost proudly, “I don’t rush it. I take my time. I cut people into pieces. Bit by bit. That’s my signature. I do whatever i do to make a statement.” He smiled thinly. “But out of respect for the Crown, I’ll be generous.” He strai
