Leviathan: Envy Novels & Stories

Chapter 75: The Leviathan’s Maw The Leviathan did not just float; it displaced the very idea of the ocean. It was a three-hundred-meter nightmare of jagged obsidian and glowing violet circuitry, a submersible designed by the Sentinels to be a mobile throne for the Hive Mind. As it crested the waves, the sheer displacement sent a thirty-foot wall of water crashing against the surrounding UN destroyers, tossing multi-ton ships like bathtub toys. "It’s not just a ship," Jade whispered, her silver wings flaring to life as she stabilized herself in the air. "It’s a living server. It’s carrying the biological essence of the thousands of 'failed' Updates. It’s a graveyard that can think."

"My dear, don't worry. Isn't there a live stream coming up? How long has Damien been in this game? He can't possibly understand the market like I do. Plus, I've got a secret weapon ready. This time, we're going to win for sure. Trust me." Katrina held Marcus's hand tightly. "You have to win this battle for me. I can't lose to Serena. Anyone but her. If I lose, she'll definitely look down on me and now, with her status as the CEO's wife, who knows how many people she's bribed behind the scenes. We have to be fully prepared." Marcus handed Katrina a tablet. Curious, Katrina took it and saw a somewhat attractive woman in a live stream promoting a lipstick. A pang of jealousy hit Katrina, but sh

“He’s not.” Antonio turned to him, sneering. “ You’ll end up dragging him down too. That’s all people like you do.” Mason stepped closer, eyes steady. “Maybe. But I’d rather stand next to him in hell than live in your heaven alone.” For a heartbeat, no one breathed. Antonio’s lips pressed into a thin line. He looked at me then, the same disappointment I’d seen my whole life clouding his eyes. “I hope you’re proud of this circus,” he said coldly. “Because you’ll never have my respect again.”

She only responded to the report with a small smile and a slow nod. “Listen to me, our war this time is no longer against humans. Rather it is a demon that has lived for hundreds of years. Against an enemy who has lived such a long life, there's no point in being amazed at the miracles they can perform. Our job is only one, to fight at the best level of each of us. The rest, I have the ultimate weapon. So you don't have to worry too much." The soldiers and higher-ups of the Haidao Pirates Squad frowned when they heard the ultimate weapon being mentioned by their leader. Their eyes searched everywhere in the ship's hall but there was no sign of the weapon there.

His eyes are red with anger and for the first time, I am scared about what he might say next. "You've no right to speak to me that way." He takes another step to close the miniscule distance between us until I can feel the hard muscles of his body digging against mine. I have lost my voice, perplexity getting the best of me. "It took me every second of my life to build this empire back. The fame you see today is a result of my fucking hard work. Not everyone gets to live a life as privileged as yours."

"Is he responsible for this?" "Yeah did he really make the Anderson's go bankrupt?" "But that's impossible… unless he is more powerful than Elijah?" Elijah and everyone else now knew whoever Arthur was, he was even more powerful than the Anderson's, and what was worse was that Elijah had fucked with him. Elijah looked at Arthur with a soft expression. "Who the fuck are you?" Elijah asked humbly. Just then dawn walked to Arthur. A mocking smile on her face as she looked at Elijah, then she shifted her gaze to Arthur. "Mr Stark, we should go… I don't think anyone here is worthy of doing business with the Stark Consortium."

Penelope was standing in front of the painting thinking about if that door took her to some other dimension or what? “Woah.” That’s all she managed to say with her mouth hung open, and her eyes widened as she circled around. “You didn’t tell me that you had a big ass library.” She didn’t even try to hide her surprise. “Well, now you know.” Damen turned back and looked at her. "Exactly how rich are you?" She was still in awe.

Finish Minnie, smirking. "But nice try though," Johan smirked. "Good job," says a voice that clearly is from a voice changer. We all look back to the television, the screen is now purple. "You may enter, liberos meos." I smile proudly, watching the wall behind the desk slowly opens to a tunnel. Still smiling, I enter the tunnel behind Kelly and Britt. I was so proud of myself after taking down Hade, that I didn't notice Scout was tense ever since La Reu spoke.

Taunt Genta with a laugh. Sensing Kaylila's weakening, Genta loosens her grip. His hands stroked Kaylila's cheek, leaving Kaylila disgusted and looking away. "I love you so much, baby. I'm not going to let you be with anyone else. You're just mine. I'm the one who deserves to have you. I keep you chaste so that when the time comes, I will take away your chastity. You don't think I'm interested in seizing what you have? Very eager. I don't want to see you owned by anyone. You know that. But, you want to get married? With that guy? I'm not going to stay silent. You want to try? Go ahead." Genta's words make Kaylila fearless. The crying is becoming more and more.

Reuben passed away from illness, our son Leo became the new godfather, and our daughter Isabella inherited my art business, becoming a world-renowned collector. I sat alone on the manor terrace, the warm sunlight bathing me. Rose bloomed in the garden, their fragrance carried by the breeze. In the distance, the azure ocean stretched out as seagulls soared freely in the sky. I slowly closed my eyes, reflecting on the ups and downs of my life. From a simple art connoisseur to wielding immense power, I had experienced betrayal, revenge, power struggles, and witnessed countless lives and deaths, but I had never regretted a single decision.
