2024-09-12 00:23:59“Yeah. I need a card with a higher limit as well. The one I have will not suffice and it’s also close to its expiration date” Jeremiah said and Anthony nodded.
“I’ll get on that right away, sir. Just give me a moment” Anthony said then he stood up from the couch and went to the landline on the wall. He called one of the bank staff to come to the VIP lounge and ended the call before returning to sit with Jeremiah. A couple of minutes later, a female banker with blonde hair tied in a ponytail and pink-framed glasses walked into the VIP lounge with one of the company’s laptops in her hand. She walked up to Anthony and greeted him. “Mister Jeremiah, this is Mercy and she’ll be the one to make the upgrades to your bank account and credit card,” Anthony said. “Good morning, sir” Mercy greeted Jeremiah and the multimillionaire greeted her back. “Can you please provide your banking information like your name and account number so I can make the upgrades you want?” Mercy asked as she opened her laptop and went to sit on the third couch around the table. Jeremiah gave her all the information she needed to find his account and then she upgraded it to the highest tier imaginable. She also requested for a new credit card for him since his old one was no longer up to par and when she was done, she left the lounge but without the laptop. She left it for Anthony whose job was to continue the remaining process of the credit card issuance which was managerial approval after the request had been made. Anthony went to get Jeremiah’s card from the storage and Jeremiah, who was expecting the same type of credit card he got last time, was surprised by what he got. When Jeremiah first opened his bank account that couldn’t even receive anything above two hundred and fifty thousand dollars, he got a credit card with a spending limit of twenty thousand dollars. That card was plastic and came in an envelope. However, what Jeremiah saw in Anthony’s hand was a palm-sized, carbon Fibre box with the bank’s branding on it. Anthony opened the box and what Jeremiah saw inside was the shine and luster of a platinum credit card which was something he had only ever seen in movies and never in real life. That was the highest grade of credit card a bank could issue to a customer they held in high regard and Jeremiah was about to receive one. Anthony took the card out of the box and inserted it into a slot on the laptop. He linked the card to Jeremiah’s account and then the only thing that was left was for Jeremiah to put in his transaction pin. Anthony gave the laptop to Jeremiah to do that and then he looked away so as not to see what number the multimillionaire would put. Jeremiah imputed the same number as his old credit card then he returned the laptop to Anthony who finished up the remaining process and everything was finished. Anthony pulled out the platinum credit card from the slot, placed it nicely inside the carbon fiber box it came in, and then handed it to Jeremiah. “Is that it?” Jeremiah asked as he stared at the alluring box in his hand. “Yes, sir, that’s everything. Oh, before I forget, here’s your booklet that shows you everything the card is used for. The benefits and features alike” Anthony said as he stretched a booklet and an envelope to Jeremiah. Jeremiah took them both and he flipped through the booklet for less than a second before setting it to the side and unsealing the envelope to see what was inside. It was a card with a message on it that read “Welcome to the platinum membership of Polaris Bank, dear Sir/madam. We hope for a brighter future together” The message put a smile on Jeremiah’s face. It was quick and endearing. Doing its job without wasting time. Jeremiah returned the card into the envelope then he picked up the booklet from the couch and put the envelope in the middle like a bookmark. “Thank you, Anthony” Jeremiah said and Anthony smiled. “Don’t mention it, sir. It was my pleasure” Anthony replied. “For the wonderful job you’ve done, I’ll talk to my father about increasing your salary. How does double sound?” Jeremiah said and Anthony’s eyes widened. It was the greatest news he could have received from anyone that day. The grateful manager went on his knees and bowed his head to Jeremiah. “Thank you very much, sir! I’m eternally grateful for this” Anthony said and Jeremiah chuckled. “It’s fine. You more than anyone deserve it” Jeremiah said and Anthony raised his head. With that came an end to Jeremiah’s objective in the bank. “I’ll be taking my leave now,” Jeremiah said as he stood up and Anthony joined him to stand up as well. “Please allow me to escort you, Sir” Anthony offered and Jeremiah nodded as he saw no problem with it. Both of them exited the VIP lounge then they headed back to the main part of the bank which on getting close enough, Jeremiah started to hear a loud voice yelling and cussing. “Who could that be?” Anthony asked as the two men stopped and grimaced. The voice sounded familiar to Jeremiah but he held his tongue and didn’t say anything. “Let’s go find out, shall we” Jeremiah said then they continued walking and when they made it to where the noise was coming from, Jeremiah saw Paul yelling at one of the bankers. “What do you mean my account has been frozen?!” Paul yelled.

CHAPTER 335
One week later, Jeremiah leaned back against a cherry-red and gold Bugatti Veyron, the glint of the city lights dancing along its sleek curves. His tailored obsidian suit clung perfectly to his frame, his silver tie fluttering slightly in the evening breeze. The engine purred beneath the hood like a beast waiting to be unleashed. He glanced at the time on his wristwatch, a sly smile creeping across his face as the apartment door opened.He looked up.And there she was.Victoria emerged in a stunning midnight-blue dress that shimmered with every step. Her curls bounced as she descended the stairs, and Jeremiah couldn’t help but admire the moment like it was a scene from a movie.“Hurry up, we’re going to be late,” he said, a playful edge in his voice.“I’m coming!” she replied, hurrying her pace before she reached him—and planted a kiss on his lips that made the world pause for a second.“When’s he popping the question again?” she asked, at the same time telling him that maybe he was r
CHAPTER 334
“The Leader?” Jeremiah asked with a grimace, the name tasting like ash on his tongue.“That’s right,” the being declared, his voice echoing like a god’s judgment through the twisted air. “I *am* the Leader—and this is my dimension. Here, I rule as supreme.”Jeremiah’s eyes narrowed. “And that name you called me—Bazar’q Omàrin? Why?”The Leader tilted his head slightly, a cruel smirk tugging at his lips. “Because that is your name. Not this watered-down nonsense—Crimson, Jeremiah—names handed to you by humans who never knew your truth. You were Bazar’q Omàrin, once the high sovereign of the mighty Oxyl Dimension... until it all turned to ash.”Jeremiah’s fists clenched as a dull pain throbbed in his temples. “And how do you know that? How do you know *me*?”The Leader's grin stretched, eyes flickering with malevolence. “Because, you banished me to hell!”With that roar of hatred, he surged forward in a blur, his fist crashing into Jeremiah’s ribs with the force of a meteor. The impact
CHAPTER 333
‘Where is he? The one who started all of this?’ Jeremiah’s thoughts were a storm as he tore through the sky in a vicious, high-speed duel against the nine-winged skeletal wyvern. His golden eyes flicked through the blood-red horizon, desperate to catch even a glimpse of Grey Lucian. Since the chaos began, Grey had vanished—eerily absent. The longer Jeremiah failed to find him, the more unease spread like rot in his gut.But the demonic wyvern wasn’t giving him the luxury of distraction.Every flap of the beast’s bony, mana-wrought wings whipped up cyclones of cursed wind. Each strike came fast, lethal, and relentless. Dodging them required all of Jeremiah’s focus—there was no room for error, no space to think about Grey, or even the cultists scattered across the battlefield, who were clearly summoning something catastrophic. The thick, malevolent mana surging from their positions felt like an omen of ruin.For just one heartbeat, Jeremiah’s mind slipped—and it was one too many.The w
CHAPTER 322
The battlefield plunged into eerie silence. Even the screaming winds beneath the dome seemed to hold their breath. Jeremiah stood at the center of it all, his dragonoid form casting a monumental silhouette against the warped sky. His scales shimmered with hues of black, red, and gold, glowing like molten metal in the dome’s unnatural twilight. Wings unfurled behind him like the banners of a god of war, stretching high and wide, stirring the air with every twitch. Mages, scattered across the estate in strategic lines, froze. The resurrection magic that had reanimated their fallen held no expression, no breath—just cold bodies awaiting orders. All of them stared at him, at the beast who had tanked a god-killing spell and still stood. Jeremiah’s molten eyes locked onto the mages who had conjured the lightning-fire hybrid spell. There was no mercy in his gaze. Only retribution. He leapt forward. The impact of his takeoff split the ground behind him, sending fragments of earth sky
CHAPTER 331
The sky darkened unnaturally, casting an eerie twilight over the estate. Jeremiah looked up as the last arc of shadow joined with the rest, sealing them inside a massive black dome. It shimmered with power, humming low like a monstrous heartbeat. The siege had begun.He turned to Lynette. “It’s begun.”“Yes,” she said quietly, eyes locked on the sky. “It has.”Jeremiah glanced down at the box in his hand. Obadiah’s head, expression frozen in death, stared back at him. The man had been a teacher, a guide, a rock of wisdom. And now he was gone. Murdered.“I’m sorry this happened to you, teacher,” Jeremiah murmured, his voice a low promise. “But on your behalf, I’ll make those fuckers pay.”With grim reverence, he set the box down. Then he and Lynette walked toward the convoy, where confusion had begun to blossom into panic.A chorus of murmurs rose as everyone saw the sky had changed. The dome wasn’t just a covering — it was alive. Pulsing. Feeding something.“What the hell is this?” th
CHAPTER 330
[“How? The gate is—“] the driver of the first car asked but went silent to his surprise the gate suddenly opened. [“But how?!”] the driver asked in a panic.Jeremiah had used wordless magic to unlock and open the gate.[“Don’t worry about it and just keep driving”] Steven interjected, stopping the driver beside him from thinking too much into what happened.Because this security detail was provided by the city of Bakers View and not of the Garrick Royal estate, they didn’t know about Jeremiah’s real identity as Lord Crimson or that magic existed. That was why Steven stopped the driver beside him from asking questions and just moved things along. [“Okay, Captain”] the driver reluctantly said and then hit the gas, leading the cars into the estate. All the while, the third car which hadn’t been connected through the channel didn’t know what was really going on. Second after second, the cars got closer to Jeremiah’s house and when they got there everything looked perfectly fine, surpr
