She wanted to be freed.


Freed from the darkness and coldness that was embracing her heart, her mind and her soul. 


When she finally see a blinding light in front of her. 


She embraced it with longing. 



Longing to be freed.



Longing for light to brighten up her dark world. 



Car screech, horns and shouting people was heard. 


"Ahhhhh!! my God!! Help!! A woman was hit!!" 


"Blood!! So much blood!!" 


"Call 911!!"


"Somebody call 911!!"


She could hear them. 


But all she could feel was the excruciating pain in her body before the darkness has claimed her. 



Before her death, a light suddenly escaped her body and a sudden disturbance on Earth has happened.




***


She was drifting in an endless void of darkness. 


She thought she will be freed after ending her life. 


But the feeling was still there. 


The sorrow. 

The grief. 

The sadness. 

And

The hatred. 


It was still there and it was eating her soul. 



She wanted someone to save her. 



To save her from the darkness of her life. 



To save her from the coldness that was slowly embracing her soul.

Lennon Wright ordered a new game on its creation day called rebirth online which came with its own VR headset for cheap, Nice.  But, who know this was the last day that he will be called Lennon Wright.

I always thought of my life as a joke. Incapable of truly accepting my flaws and always using a hypocritical smiling face mask to get through day-to-day hassles. I never hope to contribute anything to this society that always reminds me of how useless my struggles are. The only thing that keeps me going and stops me from killing my self is my love for my younger brothers. The thought of leaving them alone in this world where you're constantly being judged by your merits is scarier than any horror movie out there. 

Alas, my worst fear just came true...

The plane I was on for a business trip, just a few minutes from landing without warning exploded... 

*Sigh* At least my brothers wouldn't worry about my funeral and good thing I invested heavily on life insurance so they don't have to worry about money for a long while...

Those were my last thoughts as I lost consciousness.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________
 
Remembering my past life makes me laugh now. I never thought I would be able to reincarnate. 
Oh, how foolish was thoughts back then...

I'm glad I'm able to reincarnate as Katherine Wright the one and only sister of the well known Wright Brothers!

Due to the guilt, I had for my brothers in my past life I did everything to make sure my brothers this life will attain their dreams. I put all my efforts into making sure that the family I have now will suffer as long as I am here. It was tough especially when my mother died just a few days before my 15'th birthday. She was a gentle, strong, kind, and alert mom. She thought me how to use my smile to conquer troubles without losing the essence of being happy by smiling. 

Even now I still miss her. But, I can't make that the reason to avoid the responsibility of being the mistress of the house. All I can do is grieve silently and endure to make sure that I'm strong enough to support my brothers and my dear father. 

My previous experience and knowledge finally helped me to manage the household not only easing my father's concerns but it made my brothers truly perceive the way in attaining their dreams. Although, as soon as my father knew about my proficiency in Latin and Greek he send me to college. My college years made me realize many things about myself. It helps me pursue a career in teaching that eventually lead me to establish a steady flow income that eases the pressure from my brothers to some. This was what they needed to get into aviation which subtle lead them to pursue. Heh, my degree in psychology proved to be a great tool in manipulating others subtle making them do what I want them to do. 

Anyway, eventually my brother Wilbur and Orville successfully invented the prototype plane! Even though I knew they were the ones to make it, but personally seeing them make it and the struggles they face to make it successful, it makes me happy and proud of them beyond words! 
I want them to pursue aviation with all their passion!

When they needed help for their experiments I asked some teachers in my school to volunteer. 
Well, psychology played a major role again when I was trying to convince them. Anyway, when they needed someone to help them to sell their patented plane I used everything I knew from my past life to attract eligible customers and promote their invention while making sure no bad rumors could put a stain on it. Eventually, I become their executive secretary not that I mind since I know how their heads fully occupied by their invention leaving no room for miscellaneous things. The good, thing I'm used to doing multitasking thanks to my previous life. 

And yet, even with the skills and knowledge, I attained from my previous life nothing prepared me from the fact that one of my dear brother, Orville, almost died from a plane crash. Not even a day had gone by after I heard the news I rushed to where he was. The moment I saw him in such a horrid state I couldn't help take a deep breath to help me not to cry hysterically at that moment. At that moment I dedicated everything to assist my dear brother whatever it might be. I mean everything, from greeting visitors, talking to the doctors, even wanting to assist in the investigation of the crash. 

Thank god, Orville eventually got well enough to go home. But as we were about to go home we receive a letter from Wilbur asking us to take a trip to Europe. Naturally, I refused. But as his second letter arrived asking us to take a trip to Europe and making sure that I would have great benefits that my current career can't provide, I couldn't help but think twice at the offer since we are short on income since I've been nursing Orville and couldn't go teach and earn money. After some moment to truly weigh the options, I agreed to Wilbur's request. And it's one decision I will never regret.

 
Since my brothers were socially awkward and shy guys they couldn't handle the attention of the nobles that are attracted to their invention. Now, I get it why Wilbur was seriously trying to rope me into traveling to Europe he couldn't handle shameless advocating their invention. Pfft
Anyway, since I mastered the way using my smile to charm and psychology to subtle manipulate potential investors to patronize my brothers' inventions,  it was a sure win for my brothers. 
It was even funny how European journalists try to put the spotlight on me. Saying things as I *personally sewed the wings of the plane my brothers created.* All, those shenanigans were a good way to advertise so I would only smile when confronted with those rumors. 

Ah, but once again my life changed when Wilbur died. It was so sudden so deeply unthinkable I was left stunned when it happens, If I didn't see Orville being in the same state of mind I won't be as strong as that moment. I couldn't help nut tightly hug Orville and say that *I'm still here.* His, silent tears were more heartbreaking reminding me that we truly did lose Wilbur. I wasn't aware that I was also silently crying while patting Orville until my father silently wiped my tears with his sleeves gently. 

I blamed myself for not doing my best to help Wilbur defend their airplane patent. Maybe, just maybe if I was more assertive in helping him fight for it and not blindly trusting him to do it by himself no matter his reassurance then maybe he might have lived longer and happier. At, that moment on I decided to quit teaching and fully dedicated my self in helping Orville to clear their company's name and secure their plane patent. 

I failed. 

I failed to help Orville to keep their patent to be the "first airplane capable of flight". Orville eventually sold the company and took the whole family for our first family vacation. He took us to a lovely cozy cottage in Georgian Bay in Lake Huron. The wilderness and lack of other humans give me a sense of serenity for once. I truly enjoyed this vacation. 

After a while, I was able to cope with the loss of Wilbur but then my father died. He already suffered constant aches and pains so it wasn't as shocking as Wilbur's death, Still, father's death left a scar in our family. Orville wanted something to occupy his mind to avoid grieving too much so he bought a cute lovable puppy, I named him Scipio. 

Scipio is such a wonderful dog, but it seems I found someone more lovable than him and Orville. I was shocked by that realization. I mean I was just trying to console a friend using the methods I learned from studying psychology. Never thought it would lead to something more profound such as love. I didn't realize I fell in love until Harry (the friend I was consoling since he lost his wife) confessed. At first, I was skeptical, so I couldn't help but ask him if he was joking (which I knew he rarely does) just in case he was. But, when he seriously declared his feelings I couldn't help but question my feelings towards him and realize that I love him too. So we eventually deepen our feelings.

And yet at the same time, I got scared when I realized my feelings. I mean, Orville only has me now and if I pursue my feelings for Harry I feel that I'm betraying Orville. I tried countless times to seek Orville to tell him about Harry and me but I always choke up and quickly avoid the topic in front of Orville. I just couldn't bear Orville thinking I'm abandoning him. But, I couldn't go on leaving Orville in the dark about my feelings about Harry so I ask Harry to tell Orville about our relationship. 

Orville wasn't happy. More like, Orville treats me as if I was dead. It hurts but I couldn't let go of my feelings for Harry so...
I married Harry and moved to his house where I met his son, Henry. Even though I moved to live with Harry, I made sure to send letters to Orville and ask our head maid to send out a detailed letter about Orville day to day life. I just can't help but worry. even if I'm hurt by Orville's reaction of treating me like I'm dead I still can't help care for my dear cute brother. 

Hmm...
This life has been great. I couldn't help to always be thankful to be reincarnated. To gain such experience and truly see how the skills I gain from my previous life aren't worthless. Ah, it's nice to be able to live a second time. Unfortunately, it seems that my time this life is slipping away now. 
I couldn't help but chuckle that I'm about to lose my life to a sickness that modern science can easily cure. Oh well, it would be nice is Orville would visit be me before I die. 

"Kate," a familiar tone called me out from my drowsiness. 

"Heres Orv," Harry gently whispered into my ear.

I smiled at Orville with tears in my eye. How nice to see my dear brother before I die.

_________________________________The End__________________________________________________

I died being someone who didn't care about the future and loath to be part of something big. I loathed the world because no one can hear my silent screams and no one to see behind my hypocritical mask..... But I regret making my brothers sad by dying..... Now, that I'm given a chance to be reincarnated albeit as someone else, I'll make sure to never let my brothers down!

After finishing packing they immediately headed to the Maybach car that was waiting in the front yard.
"What time do we take the plane?" Finland asked.
"We won't take a plane," Caspar answered.
Oh... that means they will stay in Singapore… the coastal areas in Singapore were Sentosa or the East Coast…
Finland couldn't believe that she actually felt a little disappointed. She expected to travel beyond Singapore, but it turned out that they would just be in the vicinity.
She had lived in Singapore for 4.5 years and according to her, the beaches in Singapore were average at best.
The car drove for about 10 minutes and stopped at the Continental Hotel lobby area. When Ben opened the doors for Finland and Caspar, then took out their bags, Finland could not hide her disappointment.
It turned out that the special place referred to by Caspar was his own hotel...
They took the elevator to the 40th floor, but when the elevator opened, Jadeith and another man was standing there, waiting for them. Both were dressed in black.
Uhm, Caspar's personal bodyguards? These were the men who drove away people who wanted to take photos of Caspar when they were queueing up for Liao Fan chicken rice.
The two bowed slightly and led the small group to the end of the hall, then opened the door that led to the roof. They did not enter the penthouse.
Gosh... Finland only realized that they had not reached their destination!
When she climbed the stairs and found herself at the rooftop, she saw a medium-sized helicopter parked there.
"Take my hand," Caspar grabbed her hand and helped her up on the helicopter. So this was how they were going to the special vacation spot he was talking about earlier... He laughed when he saw Finland dumbfounded. "We are not going by plane, I hope you're not disappointed."
Finland could only shake her head silently.
In her lifetime she had never imagined going on a helicopter like this. Caspar sat on the pilot seat and set the noise-canceling headset on Finland's head before setting his own headset.
"Use a headset, Sweetheart. The advantage of going by helicopters is that we can go anywhere without having to search for an airstrip, but we have to bear the loud noise. I have ordered stealth helicopters which is noiseless, but a lot of documents must be filled because they are considered military-grade helicopters. This one can still be used for now."
Not only the fact that Caspar had a helicopter surprised Finland, but also that the man could pilot it himself. Finland initially thought they would both be the passengers, and Jadeith or the other bodyguard would be the one to fly the helicopter...
Apparently, she was wrong...
"Are you ready, Love?" Caspar asked with a smile. He was satisfied to see how successful his surprise was so far. Finland nodded, wordless. Caspar nodded back at her, "Here we go!"
Caspar started the engine and made all preparations to fly the helicopter, and five minutes later they were already up in the air above Singapore.
Finland could only look at him with eyes full of adoration. She alternately looked at Caspar and the view of Singapore under them...
This was so beautiful...
"I didn't know you can fly a helicopter," she said softly.
"I knew the Wright Brothers* personally and helped a little in their research." Caspar replied, "I have flown all the planes that have been created in the world since the beginning of the 20th century."
"Is it true?"
"Yes. So, if one day we are on a commercial plane and the pilot suddenly gets a heart attack and nobody else could pilot the plane, I would be able to save us and land the plane on an emergency landing." Caspar smiled rather proudly, "Your fiance is amazing, huh?"
Finland smiled when she heard Caspar compliment himself again. She nodded in agreement. "Yeah, you are amazing, and I love you very much."
Caspar showed his cheeks and Finland landed a kiss there. The two then laughed.
They have flown for about 20 minutes when Finland, who didn't take her eyes off the view, saw something interesting below them.
"Whoaa... look over there! Such a beautiful and unique islet*!! " Finland cried suddenly... "It's so cute.. It's shaped like the letter F."
"Where?" Caspar turned to the direction pointed by Finland, "Eh, you're right. I'll try to land this helicopter there,"
"Er, don't do that... What if the islet is owned by someone and they are currently staying there? We will be considered 'trespassing' other people's property..." Finland said hurriedly. "See, there is a house in the middle of the islet. We should continue our journey. Where are we going anyway? Bali, right?"
Caspar didn't respond to Finland's request and slowly landed his helicopter on the small island which indeed looked like the letter F from the air.
Finland persuaded him desperately.
"It's okay, Finland. This islet is unique, as the letter F from your name, Finland." said Caspar stubbornly. "If anyone owned it, I will buy this islet from them and give it to you as a wedding gift..."
"Oh my... Why can't you act a little normal," hissed Finland, "This is too much..."
Her words seemed meaningless because when they landed on a small square behind the only villa on the island, Caspar quickly opened their seat belts and headset and opened the door for Finland. Finland had no choice but to come down and follow him.
A middle-aged man suddenly came out of the villa, followed by several staff members. They all approached Caspar who was holding Finland's hand and walking towards the villa.
"Good afternoon, Madam and Master, was the flight alright?" said the old man, smiling broadly, "The villa is ready for you. Do you want to take a rest? Madam looks tired."
Finland gave a surprised look at Caspar and was utterly wordless when she saw his mischievous smile.

5 "heroes" are the next chosen 5 hearts but something about these particular heroes seems off.

56 had just barrel rolled over the rooftop to safety when Orville asked, "So what's your idea?"  

56 quickly looked around him for any drones following him. Sure enough, there were three in plan sight, hovering about nearby roofs. The drone pilots didn't react in time and failed to hide them in time. 56 quickly snatched his pistol from inside his jacket, rolled over in the air to fly backwards and shot a single round at each drone. The first two drones were sent shattering in plastic bits to the street below. While the third managed to duck in time and only had a propeller get hit, but it too was sent spinning the ground. 

"Well Orville, before I tell you, filter their communication to isolate where the drones are." 56 replied spinning around to face where he was flying. "We need to draw them in closer and take them out in one shot. Shooting them one by one won't work with the amount of ammo I got."

"Ok." Orville replied. "Are we using the Camera Flashback?" 

"Yep. We just need a get away car." 56 replied looking down below. 

They were flying low, only two meters or less from the low rooftops of city apartments and duplex's. Along with the occasional air conditioning unit or ventilation pipe. Other than that they were completely exposed. From the way he flew, 56 looked like a dolphin swimming. He had to constantly rise and lower his torso to change his altitude. The miniature jet engines in his legs were running at a steady even speed, letting him move about freely. 

"My sensors are indicating that they are still flowing us." Orville said bobbing along side 56. At this speed it was easy to keep up. "No sign of any air craft though. Seems like they don't have air clearance from the city government. Lucky us!"

"Yes, lucky indeed." 56 said. "Let's get some higher and let them know exactly where we are." 

"Roger!" Orville shouted as the ascended into the air. The flew up thirty meters. This let them have an excellent view of the immediate area. It also let every drone see exactly where he was. With out to much effort 56 could spot several approaching from multiple directions. 

"There, that will do the trick." 56 said taking a nose dive towards the ground. There was a small farmers market going on and the traffic there was light. 

Orville saw what 56 had indicated based on 56's trajectory and let out a moan. "Awe, a trash truck? Can't we ride in something better? I don't want produce in my circuits." The truck was just then backing up to a dumpster and preparing itself to collect the trash. 

"We won't be in it." 56 replied giving a chuckle. He then landed casually into the the middle of the market. A few startled shoppers and shop keepers backed away from him. It wasn't every day you see someone flying without any vehicle. 

"Get the Camera Flash bang ready." 56 said to Orville. 

"On it." Orville replied. He then rotated forwards so that his back panel was facing up towards the sky. A small compartment door slid open and a silver canister appeared. "Ready!" Orville chirped. 

"Wait for my say so." 56 said watching the rooftops. 

Just as he expected, a few drones started to fly over the edges of the roofs. Clearly another rookie mistake. They should've known that when seeing a target go for a landing, that one should approach the area with caution and observe before exposing yourself to confront or follow. Seeing that they were still lacking in experience, 56 reacted by giving out his next gamble. 

"I give up!" 56 shouted up at the buzzing drones while raising his hands upward. "Come get me." Then murmuring to himself he said, "Release Armament." His legs engines immediately turned off and his shins and feet returned to their natural looking positions. If one hadn't know beforehand that he had been flying with his feet, they wouldn't have seen anything strange about him. He just stood there with no shoes. 

At that moment, a dozen or more drones appeared. They quickly surrounded 56 and Orville from all sides. They were not capable of shooting anything at him, but getting hit by one was not a good idea either. 

"Now!" 56 shouted to Orville. 

A bright flash exploded from the canister on Orville's back. The onlookers scattered around the market shrieked and yelled as the light temporarily blinded them. The drones cameras were no exception. They stuttered around in the air as their pilots were also being affected by the light. 

"Let's go." 56 said as he grabbed onto Orville.  He then sprinted towards the trash truck that was now leaving to get on the road. The sudden flash drew the drivers attention just long enough for 56 to reach the truck. He dropped onto his knees and neatly rolled under the vehicle, near the rear of the truck. Here was where the spare tire was being kept. Breaking the pin holding it into place, 56 then scooted it out of the way and grabbed onto the underside of the truck. He raised himself up into the gap created by the missing tire with his free hand, while the other held onto Orville. Just at the same moment the driver started moving again. 

56 could feel the edge of his jacket dragging on the ground just a few centimeters from the roads pavement. It was an unnerving feeling and he inwardly hoped that there would be no speed bumps or potholes. The truck drove around the block and started to backup to another dumpster. 

"We going now Boss 56?" Orville asked. 

"Nope. Let's go one more stop before we leave. Need to make sure that any lingering drones won't spot us." 56 replied adjusting his grip. "Osprey drones would have been affected somewhat from the light, but only in that immediate area. We need to go farther to escape out of their line of sight."

Luckily the trash trucks next stop was three blocks away, at the end of an alleyway. 56 simply let go of the trucks underside and lay on the ground. As the truck finished up his trash collection and drove away. 56 let the truck drive right over him. As soon as it did, he jumped up and dashed down the opposite way of the alley. 

Reaching the street on the far side of the block he again murmured, "Activate Aerial Armament: Stage 1."

His feet split, slid up his shins as the shins split open into four parts and the jet engines burst into life; launching him upward into the air above the street. All with in half a second. 

He didn't fly high, just high enough to go over any oncoming traffic. He quickly found out his bearings and sped towards the glowing blue light in the sky's west. There was an odd rumbling coming from this direction, he could hear it over the sound of the wind. 

"Any tracking signals nearby?" 56 asked Orville. 

"None Boss! Looks like you tricked them good." Orville replied. 

"So now I can tell you then." 56 said to Orville, still tucked under his arm. "Every city this size has got four Hunters Clan lodges on each side of them. Moab City is no exception. If a Twisted Hoard is coming, the Hunters will definitely be going out for bounties. We just need to tag along, get over the wall and then fly off for a few days. Let everybody think we're gone, then come back and fly our ship back to the hide out."

"Oh, that make sense." Orville replied giving a beep of understanding. "They won't see that coming."

The Hunters Clan lodge soon came into view and as fortunate would have it, there were three Hunters outside. Seeing them 56 quickly deactivated his Armament and landed. Casually he started walking towards them, along with Orville hovering alongside. 

"Hey, got room for one more?" 56 called out. 

The tallest and oldest of the three turned to face him. 

"Who are you?" Dixon asked.

"I am just wondering if you Hunters are going to be facing the Twisted. Can I ask you all for a ride over the wall?" 56 said coming casually closer. 

"Why would you want to go there? Your clearly not a Hunter and not really armed for combat." Dixon said looking him over. "Not to mention shoeless."

"Yes my appearance is unsightly, but give me a gun and I'll prove my worth." 56 said spreading out his arms and giving a smile. 

"Ah, just ditch this guy Dixon." Sam said a bit annoyed. "We are waiting time. Look other Hunters are already taking to the sky's." 

Above them several hundred black shadows were zooming towards the western walls. Each one represented a Hover Vehicle of some kind, each carrying one or more Hunters. It was definitely confirmed that a Hoard was present. Not many other things would get this number of Hunters motivated to move out together. 

"Come on. You can keep everything I kill. Consider it my fee." 56 said again. 

"Fine. Get on. If you fall off it's on you." Dixon said. He turned to get into his hover bike and reeved it up. It's electric engines gave an excited purr as power coursed through its wires. 

"Thank you very much." 56 said hopping onto the flat bed Hoover vehicle. As soon as he grabbed hold, Dixon and the others took off. The bikes reached a hundred meters effortlessly in seconds. After the sudden climb they leveled out to fly towards the west wall. 

"What do we call you, stranger?" Tammy called out to him. 

"56 is what you can call me. It's my nickname." 56 shouted back. 

"Alright than, 56, here!" Tammy called back while tossing a long barreled laser rifle to him. "Once we get closer shoot at the biggest ones. They are worth more!" 

"Alright!" 56 replied. Then looking down over the edge of the flat bed, he saw them. The Twisted Hoard. 

The sight that he beheld filled him with nervous excitement. There were so many of them, all charging the blue plasma wall of the city. The dust the hoard kicked up appeared to look like a sand storm sweeping the dessert.

Near the back center of the dust cloud was the largest creature he had ever seen. From this hight he estimated it to be the length of three Blue Whales and twice as wide. A physical impossibility for a land creature, but not for a Hoard Mother!

His first thought was, "Will the city survive this assault? Or will that thing destroy it first?

The two chased after one another in the forest.
Winry was like a wild beast. They had similar speeds, but Winry was able to slip through the trees more easily, so the gap started widening.
However, Chen Zhao knew where Winry was going, so he wasn't worried about losing her as long as the direction as right. After all, Winry and Trede would definitely stop at the Gate of Hell.
Winry obviously wanted to lose Chen Zhao, but it wasn't possible.
Her state was getting worse. She was carrying someone and her limbs were heavily injured. Her energy went down faster than Chen Zhao.
Just then, Chen Zhao's phone rang.
"Huff…huff…"
"Chen…what are you doing? You're out of breath." It was Diana.
"I'm doing a night jog." Chen Zhao was exhausted. He was very fit, but this journey wasn't short at all and he was sprinting.
"Are you holding a girl right now?"
"No…should I take a picture for you?"
"Yeah, take a picture."
Chen Zhao was speechless. He could only take a selfie so Diana would believe him.
"Chen, it's so dark. Where are you running?"
"A mountain."
"Oh, I know. You're doing some special training. That's why you're so awesome."
"Okay, I'll talk to you after I'm done running."
"Fine, bye… Oh, actually, I know I'm not your girlfriend, so I won't mind even if you get in bed with someone else."
Never believe any woman who says this.
Even though Chen Zhao and Gerlyn had promised to be f*ck buddies, he still couldn't talk about other girls in front of her. This was basic respect for his female companion.
If they couldn't satisfy each other romantically, it was the least to not affect the other's feelings.
Hanging up on Diana, Chen Zhao's second call came.
It was Captain Lloyd. Hearing Chen Zhao's panting, he asked, "Mr. Chen, am I disturbing you?"
"No, I'm running. Get to the point."
"I learned that Phillip Quinn will go out in the afternoon the day after tomorrow. I also found the route he'll take. You're okay, right?"
"Huff…no problem."
"Okay, then it's set. Have a good night."
Hanging up, Chen Zhao muttered, "F*ck…"
It was the middle of the night and he was chasing a 100-something-year-old witch. How great could it be?
He wondered if Chen Zhao's friends all agreed to call him tonight. As soon as he hung up, another call came in. It was Dell.
"Don't tell me that you're messing with your dick again," Chen Zhao cyelled. "If you're calling me because of your dick, then I'm gonna go there and cut it off.'
"Chen, why are you so angry? I wanted to thank you for all your help these days, so I'm holding a party next week. I want to invite you."
"Tell me next week."
"Are you having sex? You're panting so loudly."
Chen Zhao didn't want to waste time with Dell, so he hung up. But then another call came.
Without even looking, Chen Zhao yelled, "I'm not having sex. I'm running, okay?!"
"Chen, it's me, Wright."
"Huff, huff…Wright, why are you calling me? Sorry, I'm not yelling at you…"
"Are you busy?"
"I'm running," Chen Zhao reiterated.
Whoosh…Chen Zhao moved a pile of grass aside and lunged forward.
"Okay, Chen…I heard from Ethan that you want to punish Phillip Quinn."
"Ethan told you?"
"Caprice."
"Wright, I promise I'll make that *sshole regret being born. I swear."
"Can I help you?"
"No, just make sure Ethan doesn't do anything stupid before I carry out my plan."
"I'm part of this too. You can't exclude Ethan and I."
"Wright, can you make atomic bombs?"
"I'm a medical student…"
"Okay, so just wait for good news, alright?"
"Fine… Chen, don't work too hard. Take care of yourself." Wright obviously didn't believe Chen Zhao's explanation.
"I'm seriously running at night."
"Whatever you do is fine. Just be careful. Goodbye."
Chen Zhao felt that half of his energy was wasted on bullsh*tting with his friends. He felt tired physically and mentally.
If this continued, his heart would explode.
But the calls came like a torrent. Another one came.
"Chen, are you—"
"Leonardo, if you ask me if I'm having sex, I'm blocking you."
"Uh…I was going to remind you that my birthday party is in two days. You can come, right?"
"Yes, bye."
"Chen, take care of your health."
Chen Zhao was about to go crazy, but then he realized that Lloyd's plan was taking place in two days too. However, Lloyd had planned for the afternoon. If everything went smoothly, he could make it to Leonardo's birthday party and even buy a gift beforehand.
He thought that there would be another call. He waited for a few minutes, but it was silent.
Just as he thought there would be no more calls and he put his phone away, another one came.
"Chen, are you—" It was Rutherford's voice.
"F*ck, I'm not having sex. I'm running, okay? Talk or hang up."
"My first race after recovering is night after tomorrow at the LA Memorial Coliseum. Can you come?"
He sounded hopeful. Chen Zhao was the only person who valued him and was willing to give him a chance and hope. He really wished that Chen Zhao could come and watch his first race after recovery.
"What time?"
"Eight."
"Can you give me some more tickets?"
"Of course. How many?"
"Maybe seven."
"No problem."
"Okay. And I really am running."
"I know, I know. Bye."
What the f*ck do you know? Chen Zhao swore inside. The phone rang again.
"I'm running…f*ck, I'm not having sex."
"Chen, where are you? We're at Trede's house. There are signs of struggle, but no one's there."


Chen Zhao can summon demons and see Death.

“Beelzebub, use your Gluttony ability to treat this patient’s anorexia.”

“Raymond, this old man wants to regain his manly function. You know what I mean.”

“Blackie, tell me honestly, when and how is this person going to die... What? You don’t know? You’re the Grim Reaper!”

“That lady wants bigger breasts, a prettier face, and a slimmer body. Wait... I don’t have any demons with these subordinate abilities yet. Seems like I need to make another trip to Hell.”"


With this in mind, the members of the Soul Destroying Alliance consciously distanced themselves from the Thai woman after they set foot on the avenue. They could not continue to ignore such a dangerous non-ally to be with them.
Vengeful spirits were not terrifying, and were even quite low-level. Even a demon descendant who was a junior-level employee can easily destroy them. However, there were always exceptions. Even the best of the demon descendants community are afraid to encounter some ghosts.
As Faul Anderson walked and gazed behind him, 100 meters behind them, the woman was holding the baby, humming a leisurely tune, like a young mother holding the child for a walk after dinner.
Born in the birthplace of Red Terror, he was born into a nation of fighters, and was also a combat representative of his family. 
When he was ten years old, he rode on a brown bear and ran all over the mountains, and beat up his uncle severely when he was fifteen years old when sparring. 
He easily entered the top S-class at the age of forty, and is expected to advance to the top of half step Gokudo before the age of sixty.
Faul Anderson's resume was so impressive that it lasted three days and three nights if you had to read all his achievements. He fought thousands of battles in more than twenty years and killed countless strong enemies. 
When Russia and the European nations were tearing at each other in the past few years, he went to the battlefield in person, killing dozens of demon descendants of European descent alone.
However, in this era, demon descendants were playing a smaller and smaller role on the battlefield. Before the industrial revolution, the demon descendants were fierce soldiers. 
After the Industrial Revolution, they gradually withdrew from the historical stage of war. By World War II, demon descendants were more engaged in assassinations and espionage.
A master of Faul Anderson's class can still play a big role in modern battlefields. But it was also dangerous. Maybe he would screw up at some point. Training to become a top S-class costs a lot of resources. It was a loss to die on the battlefield.
Low-level demon descendants couldn't withstand bombs, and top-level demon descendants couldn't withstand missiles, which was why they were gradually retreating from the historical scene.
Before the Industrial Revolution, demon descendants all over the world were active in politics and the military.
In ancient China, demon descendants organizations were part of the imperial court and served them. In Europe's Middle Ages, religious organizations ruled Europe for a time.
However, after the age of hot weapons began, the world's demon descendants were almost invisible behind the scenes.
From a historical perspective, it was the wisdom of most humans that trumped over a small group.
From the point of view of species evolution development, the human technology system had trumped the supernatural system of the ancient demons.
However, even a fierce man like Faul Anderson felt that he was under deep pressure. He was very wary of the woman behind him, or should we say, the baby in her arms.
"Shit, what the hell is that." Faul Anderson cursed in a low voice.
"If I'm not wrong, it's the Holy Infant from Thailand." Wright Green of the United States Dawn Alliance replied solemnly.
"Holy Infant?" Eva Carpe frowned.
The Carpe family rarely have female family masters, and Eva Carpe, the second daughter of the current family master, was just 30 years old, and a top S-class. Few from her older generation could beat her, not to mention her peers.
She became a pillar of her family at a young age, and has been hailed as the most likely woman to become a family master in nearly eighty years. Her flirtatious nature was as famous as her talent.
Famous young handsome men of the French demon descendants community have slept with her. No, it should be European or American handsome men. As long as he was handsome and famous, he had more or less been rumored to have sex with her.
There were plenty of interesting stories about this, and one of the things that is most celebrated in France was: It was said that a fairly capable demon descendant had planned to have a marriage alliance with the Carpe family. 
The guy was the first son who was an elegant gentleman. He was wowed after meeting Eva Carpe and started to pursue her madly.
The process went smoothly. They dated on the first day and sex on the second day. After having sex, the gentleman said in satisfaction, "Baby, marry me."
If Eva Carpe agreed, it would be a romantic story. What was interesting was that the lady got dressed, took 10,000 pounds out of her purse, threw it on the bed, and said, "Good size, but you lack skills. Go train your skills and look for me after a few years."
The gentleman was so mad that he cried in bed.
Wright Green said slowly, "In the early 1990s, there was a major incident that happened in the Thai demon descendants community, where a cult combined vengeful spirits with Gu poison techniques to create the first Holy Infant."
"The newborn Holy Infant grew up by devouring the vengeful spirits, and when its eyes turned into black pupils, vengeful spirits could no longer satisfy it. It needed to devour the primordial spirit of demon descendants to grow."
"When it grows a single horn on its head, the Holy Infant is considered to be rather successful and is a half-step to Gokudo. When the horn takes full form, the formulation of the Holy Infant has succeeded and is a Gokudo. However, it requires high quality and massive amounts of primordial spirit as nutrients."
"This thing is said to have grown up by devouring primordial spirits and there is no limit. Thus, it is known as the Unparalleled War Spirit of Thailand."
"No way!" The leaders of the various forces countered.
They were so sensitive to the words "Unparalleled War Spirit" that they didn't even think about it and directly rejected Wright Green's words.
Wright Green shrugged. "I don't know if there's truly no limit, but the Holy Infant then was absolutely a Gokudo. The official demon descendant organization of Thailand had exhausted all their resources to annihilate it." Wright sighed. "Every Gokudo is a disaster."
Gauss Kashub from the German Kashub family stared intensely at Wright Green, the middle aged man with a knight sword on his back asked, "How do you know this?"
Wright Green replied, "The Holy Infant then was actually created by the official demon descendant organization of Thailand and The Association of Superpowered Beings, and it was an experiment. If it succeeds, Thailand will share the secret of creating the Holy Infant to The Association of Superpowered Beings."
The Association of Superpowered Beings was the official organization of the United States, and the Dawn Alliance is a consortium. Both parties were competitors, and there was no lack of fighting and conflicts.
The demon descendant families of all European countries all scoffed, apparently accustomed to the way of Americans.
Eva Carpe frowned and asked, "Why did they destroy the Holy Infant then?"
"They couldn't control it." Wright Green hummed. "Why did the Qing Dynasty seal the Unparalleled War Spirit? It was because it was out of control that they allowed the Unparalleled War Spirit to go on a massacre. We retreated in the face of difficulties and at the worst, we could just leave."
"However, the Qing dynasty suffered the most losses. Compared to a deranged Unparalleled War Spirit, it's clear that surrender and a reparations treaty were more cost effective."
"Thailand also went down the old road of the Qing Dynasty. The Holy Infant got out of control. In order to give an account to the world, they pinned the blame on a non-existent cult organization."
"The Gokudo stage has to be cultivated step by step. Any act of shortcut will eventually lead to… Well, in Chinese terms: retribution." Wright reasoned.
Faul Anderson suddenly lowered his voice. "Did anyone notice if the monster behind us has horns?"
Several leaders looked at each other and ended up shaking their heads.
The baby was swaddled securely, and no one had thought it was such a horrible monster, so they didn't pay attention.
"Let's try not to get into a conflict with it, but if we do, we shouldn't fear it." Eva Carpe said.
There were eight top S-class members in the Soul Destroying Alliance, and more than ten average S-class members. There were also more than thirty A+ ranked senior employees, so such a line-up will cause a Half-Step Gokudo to be defeated.
However, their goal was the Unparalleled War Spirit, so they were unwilling to invite trouble.
After more than half an hour, Gauss Kashub from Germany suddenly froze. "Have you guys noticed something wrong?"
After sensing the atmosphere, there was nothing unusual about it, and people looked back at the Thai woman. She was smart to distance herself from the European and American demon descendants and there was nothing amiss about her.
"The river. The river's monster." Gauss Kashub's eyes widened. "Didn't they say there were monsters in the river? Why have we gone so long without any movement?"
With that, everyone reacted.
The ground was strewn with corpses, blood stains and the wreckage of arthropods. That was enough to suggest the dangers of the Black River, but they had come so far without encountering a monster. That didn't make sense.
Harboring confusion, they came to the end of the road and saw the huge bronze door. Until then, there was no danger.
Beneath the bronze gate, stood the Great Demons' Alliance members who had long arrived. The "Emperor" stood with her hands behind her back, looking up at the bronze gate. The nine guards stood beside her as she stood in the center.
"Beautiful." Wright Green expressed the opinion of all the men present.
In their own countries and families, they were high-ranking, and have seen all kinds of beauties. However, they were deeply attracted by the sight of the Emperor of the Great Demons' Alliance. 
No matter how picky they were and no matter how uninterested they were in women, they were attracted by her silhouette.
Eva Carpe was aware of her beauty and was prideful, but in front of this woman, she was completely not of the same league.
"This woman feels dangerous to me," Faul Anderson said gravely.
Gauss Kashub nodded. "Me too."
When the Thai woman arrived slowly, Li Peiyun who was sitting in a corner recuperating, stood up. "Since everyone is here, after this door is opened, our employment relationship ends here."
He took out the keys to the Great Deities Palace and retracted the qi. The keys immediately flew out and embedded itself into a notch.
A light-cyan glow enveloped the bronze door and seeing this light, the Aoki family members immediately became excited.
The bronze gate slowly opened.
...
The palace had no doors, no roofs, only high walls and columns. The palace turned out to be more like a prison cell than a palace.
That was because everything here was so simple and incredibly empty. It resembled a prison cell because inside the vast palace, at the center, was a square pool. It was sixty meters long, forty meters wide and one could not see the end of it.
The depth of the square pool was about the height of the foundation under foot, and the interior of the foundation was hollow.
Standing at the edge of the pool, one can see four walls of the pool several meters below, with huge chains embedded in it. The size of the chains was reminiscent of the anchor chains of those luxury cruise ships.
However, they were clearly not as simple as the ship's anchor chain, with four chains extending to the pitch-black bottom of the pool, where cold air rose.
"Is there something trapped underneath?" some people asked in trepidation.
People who saw the square pool and chains couldn't help but think of prison cells. With the size of the chains, what was trapped underneath was probably a massive entity.
"We just have to go down to take a look to see what's trapped underneath," Thunderlord stated nonchalantly.


When Li Xianyu was 20 years old, he received his father's inheritance, an 18-year-old great-grandmother who was incredibly beautiful. 

Li Xianyu: "Great-Grandma, why are you so young?"

Great-Grandma: "That's because I died when I was 18 years old."

Li Xianyu: Σ( っ° д°;)っ
