Chapter 30: Life is a game
Empire State University, Library, After Classes:
“Thanks, Gwen. I don’t know what I would have done without you,” I said to Gwen gratefully. “I am now sure to pass the Maths exam at least.”
“Oh, come on, Ke...

“Ninety-eight.”
“Ninety-nine.”
“Hundred.”
I collapsed onto the mat, panting like a dog. My arms trembled, sweat dripping onto the floor.

Chapter 26: Seeds of Envy
“You’re pretty ruthless, aren’t you?”
A smug laugh echoed through the phone.
I paused for a moment.
“Did you perhaps dial incorrectly?” I replied flatly.
“Nope,” he chuckled. “Even I got a little scared wa...

I clicked a picture of Gary’s cold corpse as proof.
“Job’s done.” I messaged.
Within a minute, I received a reply.
“Collect your payment on your next visit.”
At the same time, I also received a system notificati...

“Here’s the money he owed for the last two months,” I said smugly as I passed the bills that old man Kobayashi gave me to Reina.
I leaned back into the chair in front of her desk—damn, this thing was comfy. When I get my own office, ...

The ramen shop wasn’t far, so I decided to walk.
I hadn’t brought my taxi for the same reason I chose to work in Newark in the first place—to keep my civilian life clean, at least, for as long as possible.
While walking, I checke...

A month had passed since the alley fight. We never saw Vince again. Even Marko assured that Vince didn’t bother him again. For now, this chapter was considered closed.
Nothing major happened since, but I wasn’t sitting idle either...
Chapter 20: One Day in Hell Part 2
Four hours had passed since I had arrived here. I came across those monsters three more times. Every time, I defeated them with a scream.
Two times, I fought against only one of them. The third time, there were two at the same time. I though...

The ground was cracked and brittle, pale like sun-bleached bone. Jagged ridges of dark stone jutted from the earth at sharp angles, casting long, twisted shadows across a landscape drowned in perpetual red twilight. Overhead, the sky churned slowl...

Inside some shady alley:
“You bitch. Didn’t I tell you to sell all the dope by tonight?” A thug barked as he slapped a girl in front of him.
The slap echoed through the alley as the girl staggered back, clutching...

A taxi rolled to a stop in a quiet Queens cul-de-sac—the kind of place where nothing ever happens except parcel deliveries and passive-aggressive HOA meetings.
The passenger, a mid-20s guy in a black hoodie and earbuds, tapped his phone an...

“Shit! The safe’s open!” one thug barked.
“It’s empty!” another choked out.
“No. No. No… Boss’ll kill us if he finds out,” a third muttered, voice shaky.
“Search the place. They must be around here somewhere...

“Search the place. They must be around here somewhere,” a thug said, looking around the room to see if any of the intruders were hiding there. The gun in his hand was ready to shoot any uninvited face on sight.
The room looked like an ol...

Peter easily blocked the punch by catching it with his hand. A straight hook and Flash saw stars in the cafeteria.
Flash refused to go down. He roared and punched again, but it looked sloppy, wild, and unbalanced.
Peter blocked it effo...
