Merged Soul: Reincarnated in a Dark World

Chapter 36: The cowboy



Chapter 36: The cowboy

Jasmine stared at her husband who was puffing with furry, at their level, promises were important, Jasmine had just pulled Luke into a huge battle against her father.

She stretched her hands and lightly pressed Luke's collarbone, it was one of her ways of pacifying Luke but this time his eyes still had that terrifying glow, he was really angry.

A rebellion against Jasmine's dad was the worst idea she had ever provided, her dad was a huge pillar in the entire Urth continent, a figure that was more than so-called top figures, a slight mistake and that strict man would instantly latch onto him like a hawk and throw him to the war front, though he wasn't afraid, he may only see his family once in two or three years.

Jasmine's lips pressed together and she went to his back and massaged his tense muscles even reaching his face and rubbing his cheeks, which made Luke's face turn funny.

She chuckled as a tiny almost unnoticeable smile formed on his face, he coughed and began to negotiate "thirty minutes and I will think about it".

Jasmine pouted, although Luke was abusing his advantage she had no choice.

"So what do think about Angel's feelings for Derek?"

Hearing Jasmine's voice Luke's brows furrowed, he leaned back resting against his backrest, and hummed.

"Dear, what do you think?" Jasmine asked again, she didn't plan on giving up.

Memories of the trouble the boy have been giving him since he came flooded his mind, and a dark cloud formed above Luke's face, Derek couldn't just barge in, cause him so much trouble and then steal his only daughter and walk out leisurely.

"I don't accept their childhood rubbish, I will only accept people with recognition, I heard peace Corp has an exceptional kid and he's also attracted to Angel, he is a perfect candidate"

When she heard Luke she hit his head and scoffed "I never knew why I married a heartless man"

"Angel will only be with who she chooses, don't meddle with her personal life" Jasmine's tone was stern but Luke didn't budge, and when she saw Luke's expression her heart began to sink, should Luke disagree Angel had no hope.

The era of freedom was gone, without protection, Angel will be devoured by the thousands of hungry beasts waiting patiently, and by beast she meant people.

Luke opened his eyes and saw Jasmine's beautiful eyes moistening up, he was shocked "I never meant it, but the boy will have to suffer"

"Oh.. there's no problem there" Jasmine shrugged, Luke trembled, women are scary creatures.

"But, he will have to kill more nightmares than the number that the anti-squad A has killed, he will also have to confront your dad, these are my simple terms, I know I gave him easy tasks.. now you're happy, I'm off to bed" Luke spilled out his words as fast as lightning and disappeared.

Jasmine stood in the study shocked, there was no way Derek would complete either of those tasks.

Her watch beeped and an audio record rang, "ma'am, he's showing signs of waking up"

Jasmine hurriedly left the mansion, a white limousine was waiting for her, and her driver, Ralph, the fat dude, opened the door and gestured for her to enter.

Luke stared from his floor-to-ceiling window as the view of a white limousine leaving the acreage enlarged in his brown pupils, he had also gotten information about the state of Derek and was dearly anticipating it, it was time for Derek to live a different life, a stronger one and he was going to build him.

The moon illuminated his face as his eyes flashed with a sharp light, he would build a monster that would bring fear to them and he knew the perfect man for the job.

He looked at his watch, the screen highlighted a picture, of a man who wore a cowboy hat, his entire body was hidden in darkness with only his hat showing.

A wide smile formed on Luke's face, the master-ranked teleporter, the dreaded cowboy... Well, it was time for him to meet Derek Hart.

"This is going to be interesting" Luke muttered, down his acreage, he could see multiple colored lights flashing like lightning as various cars zoomed past the major road. Though the road was far from his mansion, he could still see it. The night was still young for night workers but it was time for rest for day workers.

Li entered the building and sighted destruction everywhere, the once beautiful white floor was now a bloody mess, and corpses of different people, both male and female were everywhere, some of the pillars had spider-shaped cracks with blood smeared on them.

He looked around, he could see sharp marks at some parts of the place, he walked close to one and squatted, his fingers which were protected by gloves trailed through the sharp edges of the white carpet tile.

It was smooth, he raised his hands and saw white particles on his finger, he breathed loudly to calm his anxious heart.

'what happened here' he mumbled, his first thought was a teleporter, the sharp marks directly linked to a teleporter but he couldn't make any assumptions.

A policeman walked up to him and presented his findings "sir, the last floor underground was a lab, there are also some machines filled with blood and more than forty bodies, they were guards, I guess they confronted their attacker or should I say what they were experimenting on".

Li nodded "get the acid, I want everything here to disappear from the face of Xon, not even a strand of hair should remain".

A short policeman suddenly interrupted them as he hollered "she's alive!"

The entire group turned to his position and saw him pointing towards a petite woman who was shivering behind the receptionist's table, with her head protected by her arms, she was glad to see the police here but from their conversation she knew they were not here to help, her bright hope crumbled as she had woken up when they arrived, it was their blaring sirens that woke her.

The last thing she remembered was a pair of glowing silver eyes boring deep holes into her body, her body squirmed in fear and her thoughts became muddy and she began to suffocate, even from the distance the suppression was killing her, and her last sight was the silver eyed man slicing open a man's throat, as she saw the spurting blood her brain immediately shut down only for her to wake up and meet a pack of hyenas.

"What do we do with her sir?" She heard as her fate was given to a rough-looking man to decide, their eyes had no pity, this building was filled with corpses adding one more would make no difference.

"Give me the can" Li ordered, a man hurriedly gave him the can and Li walked towards the woman, he slowly approached, the woman saw Li getting closer and her heart sunk, and her eyes glinted with resolve as she screamed.

"Please don't.. don't!... I'll do anything you want... please... I beg of you... I have a sick mother.. please!!"

Her pleas were useless as Li etched closer, his cold eyes were firm and his hands steady "you came to work the wrong day"

His cold tone reverberated in the woman's ears as he raised the can.
