A simple priest... Or so I thoughtChapter 43 - Interception‘I got you, bastard…’ Terry thought as he saw Jonathan step into his attack range.“Fascinating, you can still move.” Jonathan’s euphoric expression shifted back into one of indifference.Immediately, he crouched, extended his hand downward, grabbed a metal bar he had moved with his telekinesis, and with a twist, smashed it against the back of Terry’s knee.With all his strength directed into that blow, Terry couldn’t defend...

A simple priest... Or so I thoughtChapter 42 - VulnerableBoom!Jonathan kept pressing the knife with his telekinesis, but soon discovered that Terry’s muscles were so thick they basically covered all of his internal organs.“This is getting more interesting…” Jonathan narrowed his eyes and stepped back, retracting the knife, which then landed in his hand.Terry looked swollen with muscle.The veins bulged all over his body while his skin was already turning red.He had practically become inhu...

A simple priest... Or so I thoughtChapter 41 - The Thirst for Blood“The hunter seems to have the advantage, he has the upper hand in the fight.”Boom!“Eh?”Enid watched in horror as Jonathan held Terry’s torn-off arm.Wednesday wasn’t surprised; she simply stepped aside so as not to be affected by this life-or-death battle.“Is he smiling? I told you hunters are lunatics,” Enid said to Wednesday, a little less worried.What kind of madman is Jonathan to enjoy something like this?“Lo...

A simple priest... Or so I thoughtChapter 40 - The Demon of the Belmonts“Well, I think it’s a considerable distance from where the townspeople live,” Jonathan said as he took off his jacket.“We thought you had died. It was unexpected to hear that a Belmont rose in the hierarchy of The Healing Church,” said Terry, who apparently knew Jonathan well and about his unfortunate assassination.“Really?” Jonathan thought while looking for a way to attack.At that moment, Terry felt two figur...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 290 - In the WarehouseAndy quietly moved forward. He wanted to hear the true purpose of that man coming here from a closer distance. When he reached the front, he saw those two people throwing the heavy suitcases to the ground, and from the sound they made hitting the floor, it was not something ordinary.He hadn’t realized that those two suitcases contained walker faces until they pulled one out of the bag.A mask from a walker? What is that supp...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 289 - OperationFollowing an order, dozens of people in the warehouse took out their walker masks and put them on their heads. At the same time, they also placed a tattered straw cloth over the outside of their bulletproof vests. The bloodstains not only served as camouflage, but also covered their weapons and equipment.Jason watched all of this in silence. Although more than half of these people were just ordinary civilians before the end of the w...

A simple priest... Or so I thoughtChapter 39 – The Long Night, Part 2A psychopath—in different sources of information it’s stated that psychopathy is the result of a complex combination of genetic and environmental factors.Sometimes they are intelligent. However, they have poor judgment that leads them to make bad decisions according to morality and the lifestyle of what is considered right.They lack remorse and the ability to feel guilt. They are detached from society and from other peopl...

A simple priest... Or so I thoughtChapter 38 – The Long Night, Part 1“Did you just say he killed a werewolf like it was nothing?” Enid, in her room, had been waiting eagerly to hear about Wednesday’s fun day, never expecting such a grim outcome.“Relax, he said he wouldn’t hurt you.” Wednesday replied as she looked at Enid, thinking about something.“Why are you looking at me like that?” Enid asked, slightly alarmed.“We have to follow him.”“Have you lost your mind? If he fi...

A simple priest... Or so I thoughtChapter 37 – Escape Plan“Waiting is not an option…” Long before considering Jonathan as her last choice to escape this horrifying town and the clutches of her controlling parents, Wednesday acted on her own and tested if luck was on her side.But as she expected, it wasn’t easy at all to get out of this place.Not only was it complicated to use the buses, but there was also no extra means of travel she could hire to escape on her own.Wednesday carefully ...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 288 - Give Your HeartsThe next morning, Shane and the others returned to the base early. When they were inspected at the gate, they casually asked about the situation of the base, but they heard news that almost made him curse.Lori had run out again without a car!This matter had been made clear to Rick long before they became captains: those who leave will no longer be brought back. Everyone is responsible for their own safety once they break the ...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 287 - Night ThoughtsBoom!A muffled sound was heard when the fist struck the couch. Fortunately, Rick was not the only one sitting on the couch, otherwise Abraham would have knocked him down with his punch.But Rick’s reaction was not slow at all. Immediately after seeing Abraham attack him, he jumped from the couch the moment he sensed danger, successfully avoiding the blow.Seeing this, several people around the room rushed to restrain Abraham, a...

A simple priest... Or so I thoughtChapter 36 - Jericho“[...Mission in progress…Find the origin of the problem in Jericho and eliminate all those responsible for it. Your judgment will determine the reward earned.]”Because of everything that had happened, the villagers were now watching Jonathan’s group with caution. Everyone was nervous since it was probably the first time any of them had seen a group of people like that.They didn’t know what was going on, so they stepped aside.“An u...

A simple priest... Or so I thoughtChapter 35 – Getting to Work“What are you doing living near Nevermore Academy?” A cold voice echoed in the middle of nowhere, where a man, kneeling and dressed only in ragged pants, cried silently.Around the man, a group of seven people with strange weapons surrounded him without saying a word.Closer to the man stood Jonathan, dressed in black clothing with a long scarlet trench coat.His gaze reflected no empathy; instead, it showed complete disinterest in...

A simple priest... Or so I thoughtChapter 34 – Knowledge“Attack is the best defense.”That was Jonathan’s ideology, who until recently had made the decision to confront any dark entity that stood before him.The man’s attitude had completely changed compared to his previous encounter with outcasts, as he stared indifferently at the forest in the distance.If he compared his age to that of the students in this academy, he shouldn’t be too old to belong to it. But unfortunately, his train...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 286 - Questioning EugeneJust when Lori’s group found the sign, Shane and a small group of people were searching for Rick.They had left more than half a day earlier, but their direction was different from Lori’s group, although the general direction was similar, they were not in the same area.Because of the horde of walkers, they had to make a long detour before arriving at a farm.“Zz… Rick, can you receive me?”“Zz…”“Damn it! Wher...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 285 - Among the Living DeadThe purpose of mobilizing the walkers this time is to surround the bases of the new and unknown group of the Saviors, and rescue those who were captured while the bastards are surrounded.However, considering that the Saviors’ camp is very far away, it will take a long time to walk to that place, so the six are only a reference for the others. Jason also fears that everyone is inexperienced and might make some mistake a...

The Witcher: The last King of the elvesChapter 43 – Swamp Battle, Part 3“Damn it, don’t fall back!”“Wait!”“We must not allow those monsters to destroy our tribal walls!” In the dense forest, a tribe of orcs numbering in the thousands was engulfed in war.On the tribal wall, which rose more than ten meters high, stood a great number of orcs wielding various weapons, including not only archers but also mages.Looking beyond the wall of their tribe, there were countless monsters.Wind ...

The Witcher: The last King of the elvesChapter 42 – Battle of the Swamp, Part 2Boom, boom, boom!In an instant, under the surge of monsters of all kinds in the outer area of the central square, enormous columns of fire shot up into the sky.The powerful blast that erupted in an instant hurled a great number of giant swamp monsters into the air. All of them burst into flames, transforming one after another into blazing fireballs.For the monsters, these flames were unbearably hot. However, for the...

Anatomy of a KillerChapter 121 – On the Right Track?“There’s a house like the one Terry discovered, but it was sold a few months ago. We have the address—we can go take a look.”While Jane was checking the address, Larry quickly got in touch with Jack, who was at the police department.“Captain, we’ve analyzed it. I think it’s best if Alan and William are kept in separate rooms. Yes, we’ll send in what seems to be a witness—we have advanced information that might lead us to som...

Anatomy of a KillerChapter 120 – DoubtsNo matter how much they searched, there was nothing wrong with this place. After looking everywhere, no evidence was found, yet the doubts only grew stronger.Larry, still calm, looked around. He wasn’t desperate. The room was far too clean. Not a single piece of wrinkled clothing was in sight. It was so spotless it seemed to lack any sense of life.It didn’t feel like a home, but rather a place where people only worked.Max had already left the room. Wh...

A simple priest... Or so I thoughtChapter 33 – A Curious Student“Your room is being prepared for you and your companions,” said Larissa, seated at her desk with a much colder tone.“Don’t worry, they won’t be staying here.” Jonathan turned his head toward the headmistress and instead asked, “What do you know about the murders?”“The same as you.”“Be more specific. We have three people dead near this academy, and it’s clear the killer was a dark entity with very large claw...

A simple priest... Or so I thoughtChapter 32 – Darkness Smiles at Me“I’ve already explained it to the collectors: the events outside Nevermore’s facilities have nothing to do with the academy, and that I can assure you.” said Larissa Weems as she guided Jonathan through the academy grounds.“Is everyone in class?” Jonathan asked, clearly a little confused upon noticing the absence of students.If his information was correct, this would be the time when students were usually engaged i...

The Witcher: The last King of the elvesChapter 41 - Battle of the Swamp, Part 1“The elves must die…”“Exterminate the elves.”The intent, words, and influence were being spread by all the monsters and intelligent beings of the forest around the elven empire.At the top of the defensive outpost walls, Thranduil looked around and found Haldir standing on top of a watchtower, looking nervous and grim.The squad of an elf named Hayden was a reserve unit and was under Haldir’s command, but be...

Anatomy of a KillerChapter 119 - Relentless SearchLarry knew his friend was perfect at kidnapping without getting caught—he had been doing it for a long time. So if he didn’t wrap up this case in time, he would ask Dexter to kidnap the next victim and let him witness the trial.He was undecided; FBI cases were undoubtedly far more complex than those handled by the Miami department. If it hadn’t been for having to escape Sergeant Doakes’ watch, he never would have left Miami.Half an hour l...

Anatomy of a KillerChapter 118 - Common Sense“It’s the semifinals of the Women’s Volleyball World Championship, Brazil versus Japan. What an exasperating match! I won thousands of dollars betting—really, betting on Brazil is never a bad idea.”Alan was speaking with one of the agents who was still asking him more open-ended questions in another room. He was so excited that he wanted to raise his hand, but his wrist was cuffed to the chair, so he stopped himself immediately.Jane stood up...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 284 - The MineThe conversation with Negan lasted more than an hour, while the members of the group outside kept busy with their own tasks, unaware of what the two were discussing inside the room.Franklin learned that these people were preparing to deal with a group of individuals who, according to their description, seemed to be the same thugs who had kidnapped his own people.When Negan came out, he told him about it, but he remained very calm—c...

Proceeding with the capture.”At the g...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 282 - ConcernsAlexandria Community.Jason extended his hand toward Negan, and he also smiled and shook his hand in response."My name is Jason, nice to meet you. Let me briefly say that, for security reasons, we need to talk in more depth, so you must accompany me to a special room.""Understood, we will cooperate with everything you need." While the two were talking, Lucille’s legs suddenly gave way, luckily she leaned on her husba...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 281 - Different PathsJust as the people of Alexandria were preparing to attack the people who had been at Hilltop and destroyed the Kingdom, with some speculation that they might save someone still alive, something important happened in the Atlanta prison."Are you planning to leave early tomorrow morning?""Well, Shane has agreed.""Can you take me with you?""Lori, are you sure you want to leave? You still have two childr...

Stay AliveChapter 102 – The World We Have Lost“Zz… Descending. Package secured.”Alan stepped out of the helicopter as soon as it landed. His eyes scanned the largest military base they had reclaimed a few months earlier. Rows of fighter jets stood in maintenance, gleaming like silent giants. His gaze fixed on Joel, who approached, followed by several others.“Have you resolved the problem?”Joel nodded, glanced at the people Alan had brought, and said, “Everyone who serviced your hel...
