Semua Bab The Consortium's Heir : Bab 601 - Bab 610

His comrades had abandoned him mid-fight! His breathing sped up, but he didn’t change his mind. He pointed at them and roared, “You’re all weak, cowardly, good-for-nothings! Look at the clothes he’s wearing—they’re obviously cheap and low quality, which means he lives in squalor. Don’t you guys even have the nerve to beat up a poor and powerless man? I’m humiliated to be associated with you guys!”He turned back to Darius. This time, his gaze was appraising. He looked Darius up and down, then cleared his throat and said, “Brat, I’ll give you a word of advice—the Anderson family’s wealthier than you could imagine, and Miss Calypso’s gotten to know plenty of wealthy people recently. They’ve invested in the Anderson family, and we’ve even gotten pay raises. You have no hope of winning against them!” His tone was resolute, and he was obviously proud to say this.Darius raised an eyebrow and smiled. “You may be right, but there’s one thing you’ve gotten wrong—the Anderson family might not

“He might be in a lot of danger now because he’s useless to those people.”“Those people?” Darius raised an eyebrow, looking curious. “Who are you talking about?”Kate looked hesitant, but she quickly made up her mind and said, “I don’t know either. All I know is they were in black robes.”Darius frowned. He buried his confusion and placed a hand on Kate’s arm. “Got it. I’ll save your uncle, but you and your father need to get out of here.”Kate relaxed at his promise, then turned to look at William. “Dad, let’s go. I trust Darius. Now that he’s promised me, he’ll definitely save Uncle Benji.” William nodded and turned to look at Darius with a complicated gaze. He parted his lips to ask for more details but ultimately decided against it.Darius said calmly, “Don’t worry, Benji will be fine. You two will only cause more trouble for me if you stay.” After that, he turned away from them to face the people who’d gathered outside the room.Calypso was in the lead, and she looked at Willia

“He already told us everything we need to know.” Erin looked down at Calypso as she spoke. Then, she squatted down with a thick rope in her hands. It made Calypso’s eyes widen in fear, and she tried to scramble to her feet to flee. Suddenly, she felt like something was controlling her and stopping her from moving. Erin took advantage of this and started tying the rope around her.Once again, Calypso parted her lips to speak. This time, however, her tone was pleading, and her words were no longer insulting. She cried, “Darius, I know I made a mistake. Please, don’t take me away.” She had to buy some time—had Erin mentioned Bryan Weiss earlier? Calypso knew he was far more powerful than her, and if he’d gotten caught, no one could defeat Darius. She looked at him with bloodshot eyes. “What do you want to know? I’ll tell you everything.”Darius tucked his hands in his pockets and nodded at her without another word. She hesitated before looking at him, but her hesitation led to Erin tig

As soon as his words fell, the old man’s voice boomed from all directions, making Darius feel like his ears were going to go deaf. “I hear you, but you can’t deny the result would be the same if I were to employ another method, right?” Darius stiffened; his face was starting to turn grey from the lack of oxygen, and his vision was blurry. However, he remained on his feet despite his wavering body. He’d never realized how hard it was to hold on and stay strong. He tried to look around again, but his actions only made him use his oxygen faster. Finally, he stopped breathing. The old man sighed. “You were destined to die, especially because of your obstinacy.” Unbeknownst to him, Darius hadn’t actually died. On the contrary, he seemed to have been transported to another world. Everything there was shrouded in darkness, and he could feel strong gusts of wind billowing around him. He raised an eyebrow—this was his first time seeing something like this. He wanted to stand up but felt

“What are you standing there for? Absorb the life force! The more you absorb, the less he’ll have! It may not have been obtained through the most innocuous of ways, but we’d be doing the public a favor by absorbing it,” Teivel said.Darius smiled, then sat down again and shut his eyes to start meditating. However, he opened them again almost immediately and asked, “Where are we? I’ve been meaning to ask for a long time now.”Teivel sounded impatient, saying, “Quit asking questions, or he’ll discover you’re here before you get anything out of this! This is a world built from your consciousness, but another world outside of yours belongs to him.”Darius raised an eyebrow. He’d never heard of these things before, and his hands paused in mid-air. He was so surprised that he forgot all about absorbing the life force, and his eyes widened. His gaze swept over his surroundings, but nothing seemed familiar to him. Teivel’s words were becoming more and more believable to him…and it seemed lik
