Johnathan launched a slashing attack towards Adam, but the latter blocked it effortlessly. While Adam focused his attention on blocking Johnathan's attack, Warren sidestepped him and slashed him from behind. Adam didn't expect Warren to work with Johnathan, since he thought they hated each other's guts. But that assumption turned into quite a miscalculation. Though Warren connected fully, his slash didn't do as much as he expected. It drew a little blood, but that was about it.
Even Johnathan was surprised when he saw what Warren did. He thought that Warren would choose to wait that one out and probably focused on fighting Adam once Johnathan worned him down. But Warren wasn't about to waste any time. He knew that if he allowed Johnathan to fight alone, even wearing Adam down a little wouldn't help, since Warren still wouldn't stand a chance then. That's why he aimed to assist Johnathan in dealing with Adam. It was a once off deal, never to be repeated again.
"Wh
Johnathan could feel the strength leave his body too when he realized who it was. The hostage that Adam captured was none other than Elaine Parker. He was a real bastard if he chose to use family as a shield. Did bonds mean nothing to the likes of him?"Sorry, I totally forgot about my little niece. But your attempts at stopping me is futile. The only things she managed to do was to prolong your execution. Now where were we?" Adam asked as he summoned his fireball again. When Elaine called out to him, he accidentally deactivated his technique. What he didn't know was that in that split moment, he gave Warren enough time to gather the strength and resolve to launch his own counterattack.Seeing his sister in that situation, was just what Warren needed to give him the extra edge. As Adam was charging his fireball attack again, Warren already prepared his, before the ball was at the appropriate size, Warren attack with a slash. It was imbued with Reiteki and Warren
Warren looked at Johnathan with fiery red eyes. He was about to decapitate Adam, but Johnathan decided to step in for his brother. Warren brought down the sword again on Adam's head, but Johnathan stood in his way again. That was when Warren decided he had enough. If Johnathan wanted to feel his wrath, so be it. Warren would give him his wish.Warren used his sword and struck Johnathan right across the chest. Johnathan didn't have the necessary speed to dodge a slash of that magnitude. Warren was levels above him, so taking care of Johnathan was easier than expected.Elaine could see both her father and uncle on the brink of dead, and that broke her heart. She ran and stood in front of Warren while begging him to be merciful. Warren didn't pay any attention to her at all. Elaine even went as far as to start begging on her knees. She hated her father, but no child wanted to see their parents get killed in front of them. What kind of person would ever conside
Warren was too weak to pull himself to his feet again. When he was done slaying Adam, he somehow regained his senses, but he was also out of stamina. It felt as if a train had driven over his body. He had vague memories about what happened, like Adam killing Elaine, but after that, everything was a blur. It was almost as if he was in a trance.Warren looked at his hands. It was there, but he couldn't feel anything. Warren's whole body was numb. He had to overexert himself to get to Elaine's body. Warren knew that no matter how hard he tried, there was no bringing her back. For someone who just got a decisive victory over a great foe, Warren wasn't really in a celebratory mood. He laid his head on her body and lost consciousness.After three whole days, Warren opened his eyes again. He was in the local Flemond hospital. It looked like someone took pity upon him when they saw the sorry state he was in, but why did they bother to bring him all the distance fro
Warren thought that his ears were playing tricks on him. Did Jennifer really say what he thought she said. He asked her to repeat herself as if he was hard of hearing."I said I want you to marry me. Charles left with a flooze after what you did to him in Richmond. It's only fair that you should make up for that," Jennifer repeated herself. Warren wasn't having any of that so he bursted out laughing. That was the best joke he heard in a very long time. Jennifer must have been high on her own saliva if he thought Warren was going to consider something so ridiculous."First of all, it was your own fault. Do you expect me to forgive you after what you put me through? Secondly, you were the one who fell in love with a womanizer, so be it. And lastly, do you remember how you guys went as far as kidnapping Olivia. Do you expect me to forgive you for all that?" Warren ranted on and on. But it was as if Jennifer deliberately pretended not to hear what Warren said. She wa
"After all this time, you decided to only show your face now? Do you know how much I missed you?" she exclaimed. Warren scratched his head. He was at a loss for words. Why would Yvonne even miss him? It's not as if they were so close. The one she was really close to was Samuel and he was out of the picture."I'm sorry about that. I had a lot to deal with, you know," Warren responded. He just wanted the conversation to end so that he could finish the business he arrived to do. But Yvonne wasn't about to let go of him so easily. She felt like she had a lot to share with him. When she strolled her hair over her ear, Warren noticed something. She had a shiny diamond ring on her finger."By the way, who is the lucky guy? Do I perhaps know him?" Warren asked. When she realized that he was referring to the ring she had on her finger, she blushed a little. She didn't want Warren to notice it all, but she was so excited to see him, that she didn't take the necessary
Warren completely forgot about Yvonne that was looking at him with jealous eyes. He ran outside as quickly as he could to catch up to the woman he saw. As he approached her, he kept shouting her name, but she didn't look back once. Warren didn't let that stop him. As soon as he reached her, he embraced her from behind and held on as tightly as she could. She smelled a little different than the usual perfume Warren was used to, but as long as he could touch her again, he was happy.The woman let out a loud shriek when she felt Warren's arms around her. She turned her face, and that was when Warren realized just how wrong he was. Though her body looked exactly like Olivia, the woman he was holding onto, wasn't his beloved. She was scared crazy and when Warren finally let go of her,she slapped him right across his face. Warren couldn't hide the embarrassment he felt at that moment. How could he make such a novice mistake?"I'm so sorry for mistaking you for someone
Without a moment's thought, Yvonne reached out and she hugged Warren in the middle of the restaurant. It totally slipped her mind that they were in a public space, so the gazes that was on them, didn't bother her at all. When Warren felt her warm embrace, his tears started to flow uncontrollably. Yvonne was feeling really bad that Warren was in such a vulnerable situation, but she enjoyed having him in her arms. His smell was so pleasant to her.But just as she got comfortable with that, they were interrupted by someone clearing his throat next to them. Yvonne let go of Warren and when she looked at who it was, she was left dumbfounded. The man had an irritated expression on his face, but Warren couldn't understand why it would bother him so much seeing Yvonne hugging him."Care to explain what's going on?" the man asked as he looked at Yvonne. She had a very guilty expression on her face. She was like a child who was caught with her hand in the cookie jar. She looked
Warren decided to do some exploring of the Einfrieren Continent the following morning. He knew that he couldn't hide behind the cold, he had to get his body accustomed to the climate or else he would have to hide in the room for the whole day. Warren hired a guide who would lead him to all the most popular attractions of the city he was in. It's not that he wasn't confident about finding his way back, he wanted someone who had experience of traveling around the city.The first stop Warren made, was to the restaurant that was closest to his hotel. The place specialized in seafood, but Warren wasn't particularly fond of that kind of diet. So Warren got a taste of the rich diversity the city had to offer. The architecture and food industry was something to behold. Although the continent was still years behind the Cape Continent in terms of development, their unique architecture was really something to take note of.Warren met lots of interesting people who spoke the same
