CHAPTER 461
Denver covered his fist with somatic aura and jumped forth without hesitation. “Coiling Fist!”Jamie blocked the fist with his aural palm, then bent his fingers so that his hand turned into a claw. “Eagle Bite!”He grabbed Denver’s hand tightly and waved his arm.His attack was supposed to rip apart Denver’s fist from the rest of his arm.Denver’s wrist must have been snapped, but all that Jamie felt was a residue of aura around Denver’s hand but not the actual hand.Denver whipped his leg and nearly struck Jamie’s ribs.Jamie moved back just enough and efficiently dodged the attack. “You repeatedly rotated aura around your fist, so even though I grabbed your fist, I only managed to peel off that top layer of the rotating aura. That’s why you named it coiling fist, huh. That’s a simple but strong attack.”Denver felt hotness around his right hand. It wasn’t because of his own aura, but due to coming into touch with Jamie’s aura. “Why is your aura hotter?”“Because it’s superior,” Jami
CHAPTER 460
Nox and Kuro returned to Mount First.Nox kneeled before Mickey and reported everything, but Kuro was just standing on the side.Kuro didn’t seem to have inclination on accepting Mickey as his lord just yet.“It’s rare for you to fail a mission, but it’s understandable if that woman was with Jamie Adler,” Mickey shut the book he was reading. It was a book about the founding of the four guardians. “What’s more interesting is that Leo Adler came here and also brought that woman along. Why would he be walking around with Denver’s ex-fiancee? Surely, he has ulterior motives.”“We can contact him and make use of him,” Kuro suggested.“If you think Leo is easy to handle, you’re mistaken,” Mickey replied. “He’s not just a single person. He has the entire Eagle Rise Group behind him. He’s a little too much for me to take on right now. It would require a great deal of dedication to bring him down. With the Rankers Festival approaching, I can’t afford to have attention diverted elsewhere.”“I w
CHAPTER 459
After working for three hours and earning sixty dollars from the hourly wages and ninety more dollars from the five percent commission, Diane returned to Jamie’s home.Jamie was in the frontyard, shoveling the snow to create a thin path outside.“His back is totally exposed. I’ll show him how pathetic he is,” Diane crawled on her toes and then suddenly kicked at his butt. “Oh, no! There’s a centipede on your butt!”BAM~!Diane found herself lying fifteen feet away buried in the snow.She got up with effort and looked to be in shock. Her ankle turned sour. “How did I get here?”She looked at Jamie who was still sweeping and acting like nothing happened.“This geezer… did he catapult me with his aura or something?” Diane frowned. “How is that even possible? I couldn’t even see him move. Just how strong is this old guy?”Diane still had no idea what exactly happened.“M-Master Jamie,” Diane walked over to him, slightly limping. “Are you okay? Did I kill the centipede?”“I think it ran aw
CHAPTER 458
At Wang Corps headquarters.Jordan Wang was reprimanding the staff for his company-produced cars receiving a safety rating of less than five.“I don’t care if we’re saving a bit more fuel than before,” Jordan rebuked the directors. “What we need to save is the passengers first. Everything else comes afterward.”“B-But, sir, we have other models which offer greater safety,” one director explained. “It’s just that this particular model offers a little less safety. We got a 4.4 safety rating, but in return, it will offer 2 more miles per liter. It can also accelerate faster.”“So that the rate of accidents can increase?” Jordan harrumphed. “Who’s the chairman of this company?”“Y-You, of course.”“Then do as I want. We will compete with the changing market in our own ways,” Jordan told them. “Safety comes first. Everything else comes after. The reason our company has grown over the years is because we produce quality products that last a long time. If the toy is costly but can’t even end
CHAPTER 457
“Leo Adler, the head of Eagle Rise Group?” Bianca was even more shocked than her dad.After all, she had tried to get Leo’s appointment many times in the past, but she couldn’t.Bianca could easily get the appointment of the governor if she wanted, but she couldn’t get Leo’s appointment, not even once.It left a bad taste in her mouth.“Why is that egotistic guy at our bank?” Bianca was walking out. She was ready to meet and talk to him, but Darrell stopped her.“Don’t rush it. Why do you think he’s here?” Darrell asked.“We’ll know once we talk to him.”“He’s here because of Denver Nighthawk,” Darrell said.Bianca was startled. “What makes you think so? Is it because he attended the Rose Port opening ceremony?”Darrell somewhat nodded.“What if he asks us to pick sides?” Bianca asked back.“That’s what worries me as well,” Darrell frowned. “What do you think are the chances of Denver winning the competition and getting his hands on the Black Hawk Card?”“I don’t know how powerful his
CHAPTER 456
At Den Bank headquarters.Bianca and her dad just finished talking with the investors and were now having a discussion while playing golf inside the recreation room.Darrell was able to put the ball into the coffee mug no matter how they were tilted. He could hit the walls accurately so that the ball ended up in the coffee mug which was laid horizontally on the floor.Bianca, however, was not able to play the game well.“You seem distracted,” Darrell asked. “What are you thinking about?”“I was wondering if its right to remove 11,000 positions in the next year,” Bianca said. “I know that rapid resetting will increase the lenders’ stock price, but… should the cut be this deep?”“With artificial intelligence also rapidly improving, it’s necessary to erode the disposable roles,” Darrell replied. “I expect that we’ll save over 1.2 billion dollars by eliminating 11,000 employees. In fact, many of our consumer companies will be shedding thousands of employees in the coming months.”Bianca f
