Caleb entered the apartment.

He did not take the elevator but instead the stairs.

Upstairs, the neighbor kids were playing a tagging game in the hallway and ran past him.

It brought a smile to Caleb’s face because the atmosphere in this apartment was completely different from the Black Ring’s Runner branch.

After fighting a lot these past two days, the laughter of the children soothed his soul a bit.

He went to his room and had a long bath.

He now had a bathtub, which he liked sitting in.

He lo

    Caleb was still on the ground, leaving a trail of blood from his wounded shoulder.Blood also dripped from both corners of his mouth.He couldn’t quite understand what just happened. Why was he bleeding in a spiritual realm?How did the three-headed monkey get the better of him when he threw the punch with everything he got? He surely wasn’t afraid of that monkey when he attacked it, yet his punch was utterly broken.And Caleb also lost his entire right arm.It wasn’t just the arm that suffered damage. Caleb could feel a strange sense of pain gripping his chest, making it difficult for him to breathe.“You need more than just fearlessness to survive in this world,” Caleb said.The three-headed monkey grinned while eating bananas with three heads. “Even if I tell you how I did it, keeek, you wouldn’t be able to learn it now.”It leaped onto a tree, swung over a branch like a pendulum and jumped high into the air, then came down in a spinning motion.Even the winds twisted around the be

    The deer wasn't defeated because Caleb was physically stronger. It was defeated because he stopped believing he was weaker than it.Even though he had won against one beast, thousands of more spirit beasts stared at Caleb from the trees, the clouds, and the distant mountains.The horned deer beneath his feet slowly dissolved into silver mist.Caleb frowned. He had surely crushed its skull. He had felt the impact, yet there was no blood. Now, even the body was gone, leaving nothing behind.The spirit mist drifted toward the surrounding beasts and faded away as if it never existed.Then a tiny squirrel jumped off the tree and landed in front of him.It was ‘tiny’ compared to other beasts, but it was still a bit taller than Caleb when it was standing upright.Despite how cute and chubby it looked, it started throwing punches so fast. Caleb could barely see those punches. His body was not able to react in time.He got hit by a dozen punches in a flash. Each punch was like getting hit by a

    Rita tried to wake Caleb up, but he didn’t respond at all.She immediately called for an ambulance.It took ten minutes for the ambulance to arrive and then more time to take him to the hospital.The doctors checked the scans and told Rita that several bones were broken in the chest, and that several organs were pierced.So there was no guarantee that Caleb would wake up right after the treatment.Rita sat outside and waited, bringing in all the medicines whenever the nurses asked her to.She had to walk to and fro many times, even during three o’clock at night.She was getting sleepy, but she didn’t sleep.After seven in the morning, the doctor checked Caleb’s condition and said it was finally stable.Only then, Rita was able to breathe better.She called for Faye, but Faye didn’t respond. She sat in the chair and resisted sleep as best as she could.But she eventually ended up slipping into sleep.At the same time, in the spirit world.Caleb was fighting a horned deer that was tryin

    Caleb walked out of the cemetery and was about to enter his car, but he stopped and looked behind.He was expecting the crow, but there was a man with a thin silver crown on his head. He was looking straight at Caleb.“You want something?” Caleb turned around.“My name is Silver Reign,” he introduced himself with a smile, but that wasn’t a friendly smile. “I’m here to challenge you.”“What’s your rank?”“I’m a C-Rank fighter.”“And you want to fight me, a D-ranker? Don’t you have any shame?”“I don’t want someone else hogging attention away from me,” he rushed forward, his fists giving off a silver glow.Caleb’s eyes widened. He instinctually moved to his left.A silvery glow of energy brushed past his shoulder, ripping his cloth off at that part, leaving a bruise on his skin.Behind him, it hit the ground and left a mini crater in it.“What was that?”“That’s my silver aura,” he threw his fist again from a distance.This time, the energy blast came much faster than he could dodge.It

  • CHAPTER 176

    Rita came to Caleb’s apartment in the evening just as Andy started his shift.Seeing Rita, Andy ran into the apartment and hid behind a pillar.Rita casually entered the elevator and went upstairs.“What the hell is that cold CEO doing here?” Andy was feeling goosebumps all over. He was not afraid of Edward, but he was afraid of Rita because he once tried to tempt her, and she slapped him in the face.She didn’t remove him from the job so she could monitor him and make sure he wouldn’t mess with any female employee.Andy did not want Rita to see him working as a gate guard. It would be too humiliating for him.Rita, on the other hand, went to Caleb’s room.The door was locked. “Tch, he’s not home yet?” She made a phone call, but he didn’t respond. “He’s gotta be kidding me? Why is he not answering my call? Is he still hung up on what happened at my home?”“Are you here for Caleb?” a voice reached her ear.Rita saw Velma and nodded. “Yeah. Who are you?”“I’m the neighbor,” Velma introd

    Later that evening.The sun was setting. Edward was expecting a phone call from Gregory, and his mobile rang.He quickly answered, “Did you find him?”“Sorry, Edward.”“You couldn’t find him?”“It’s not that simple,” Gregory said in a disappointed voice. “The governor told me to stop digging into him for our own safety.”“What?” Edward was utterly confused. “We’re only after a mere truck driver. Just who is behind him?”“Someone even the governor doesn’t want to mess around with.”Edward could only frown. “Does that mean the truck driver is not going to be captured?”“I don’t know who that employee Caleb offended, but I suggest that you keep your distance from him,” Gregory said. “Don’t take this lightly. I’ll update you if I find more details.”The call ended.Edward looked back. His daughter Rita was practicing violin on her own.She stopped playing and looked at him. “So, you failed, huh…”“It’s not that simple.”“Don’t give me excuses, Dad. I’m not a kid,” she growled. “And I’m st
