317 316: We Have Company 'A lot of things about the Underworld don't add up.' This was Corey's main thought as he listened to Rosa speaking about their situation and the ugly truth of the Underworld. Although Corey was slightly stunned by the fact that the Underworld was used as a training ground for the young masters and ladies of the top factions of the outside world, Corey was still baffled by one question: Why was the Underworld truly created? Corey knew the Underworld was not a…-

Shock. Surprise. Confusion. And Intrigue. These were the emotions of Rosa, Fatty Black Bonez, Old Man Poison, Selene and the rest as they watched a scene which should not be possible. "You're a healer?" Old man poison's shock filled voice boomed in the abandoned warehouse. His words mirroring the exact question that was in the minds of everyone. "I'm not." Corey shook his head, and all eyes landed on Corey with confusion evident in their gaze. "It's a skill. It's a healing…

"Six seconds! We only have six seconds!" The instant Dave said those words, Rosa and the rest immediately stood with extremely shocked expressions. "Six seconds? What the fuck do you mean by six seconds?! That's way too early!" Fatty Black Bonez shouted with an anxious expression as he alternated his gaze from Dave to the door of the warehouse. "Shut the fuck up and get ready for battle you fool! Do you want to die?!" Rosa shouted while looking around with vigilant eyes and a solemn…

The room, once a bustling warehouse, now lay vast and empty. Its towering ceiling, supported by exposed beams, stretched high above, catching faint rays of sunlight that filtered through dusty windows, casting a golden glow. Rows of metal shelves, now rusty and disorganized, lined the walls, bearing the marks of wear and tear. Empty crates, worn and scattered across the concrete floor, hinted at the space's former industriousness. Despite its past activity, the room now exuded a sense of abandonment.…

"So what do you want Mrs. Manager?" The moment Corey asked this question, the atmosphere in the room became solemn and quiet for the first five seconds before a soft laughter resounded in the room. "I think you know what I want Anon." Calista chuckled softly while wiping away the tear that had formed in her left eye as a result of her laughter. "There is only one thing you have that I'm interested in." Calista paused, and the smile on her face slowly vanished. "The concoction recipe for…

As the seconds ticked by, the air within the room thickened, wrapping around everybody in the room except Calista whose gaze still contained visible amusement. The stifling pressure in the room was mostly aimed at Corey and Corey did not need to look, to know the source of the pressure. Corey could feel a gaze filled with malicious intent, shock, and bafflement coming from his right. He wanted to try and defend himself, but he decided not to. He knew that if he did, his master would beat him black and…

'WHAT THE FUCK IS SHE DOING HERE?!' An internal roar of frustration, anger and slight fear reverberated in Corey's mind as he looked at the person he least expected to see and most definitely did not want to see. The manager of the Underworld Emporium, Calista! Never did he think that Calista, the manager of the Underworld Emporium and a renowned tier 6 would actually take out of her precious time by appearing in the headquarters of the Terror Queen. And from her words, she wanted to meet him and was…

He had deep violet and light blue eyes which contained visible hesitation- Corey. To the right of this man, was another man who was visibly older. He wore green robes which had patterns of vials and smoke. His brown eyes contained barely restrained bafflement as he observed the building before him.- Old man…

When Corey heard his master's words, he wanted to desperately leave and curse. Never did he think his drug would have sleepless nights on his master, and his master would be filled with immense murderous intent towards the creator of the drug- Him. Corey's skin crawled as he felt the fury and killing intent of his master even though it was not directed at him. 'If I knew what Neon did to him, I'd have never met him even if they beat me to death.' Corey thought with a wry smile. He was…

A few minutes passed after old man poison taught Corey how to fight like a true poison expert. Corey sat on a chair with his head inclined backwards and his eyes closed in thought. His mind replayed his master's words for some seconds, then he released a soft sigh. He opened his eyes and he saw his master looking at a large glass bowl that contained multiple poisonous insects and animals. 'Sorry master. But I can't always fight like a true poison expert." Corey thought with a slight smile as he gazed…
