Chapter 120: I’ll Go Look For Him
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Although Daniels looked civilized and refined, he was extremely ruthless, and it was common for him to break the limbs of those who created trouble in the club. This was the reason why Daniels could become the manager of the club at such a young age.
However, Daniels actually swallowed his pride and bowed down to the young man in front of him, who was in his twenties and didn’t seem that strong.
What is the background of this young man?!
Lucas glanced indifferently at Daniels, who was smiling deferentially. “No matter what you think, I’ll state things clearly beforehand. If anyone dares to create trouble for me and the people around me in the future, they should think about whether they’re tired of living or not.”
His tone was calm, but his words made Daniels’s heart hammer violently. He immediately got rid of his evil thoughts. “Yes, Mr. Gray. Don’t worry. We won’t do anything out of line.”
Lucas glanced at him and then turned around to leave, with the tall and burly Wade following closely behind him.
Aston originally wanted to try sucking up to Lucas, but when he saw how uninterested Lucas seemed, he was smart enough not to chase after him.
Of course, he didn’t take the 380,000 dollars worth of coins on the ground either.
Regardless of who Lucas was trying to deter, Aston was truly astounded, and he was already reevaluating Lucas’s status and purpose in his mind.
The people left in the Opulence looked at the coins in the lobby before looking at each other, at a complete loss for words.
A service supervisor of the club came up to Daniels and whispered to him, “Mr. Daniels, are we… just going to let that arrogant punk go?”

“If you have what it takes, go and catch him then.” Daniels glowered at him. The latter was instantly speechless and flinched.
They had all witnessed the scene just now. If they really went to nab Lucas, who would be able to defeat him?
“Use your brains and think about it properly. Who are those people around him? All of us will never be able to defeat his subordinate even if we work together! How are we supposed to nab him?” Daniels glared at his brainless underling. “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and get someone to pack up the coins on the ground. They’re worth 830,000 dollars after all! Okay, now go placate the customers and ask them to continue gambling.”
“Prepare a check for 450,000 dollars and some gifts. Get some people to come with me to apologize to William Carter.”
“What? Mr. Daniels, do you still intend to apologize to them?” The supervisor was astonished. He thought that Daniels was just making a casual remark and would send someone to apologize to William.
“Duh! Do I have a choice? You brainless fools are useless! That guy’s subordinates are so powerful, and you guys are trash compared to them!” Daniels berated. His underlings lowered their heads, not daring to make a single sound.
At this moment, Jordan was bringing William back home.
William thought Jordan wouldn’t dare to do anything to him since he was Lucas’s subordinate, so he started insulting Jordan and called him an ill-mannered brat who was as rude as Lucas.
Jordan was overwhelmed with fury. If not for Lucas’s instructions, he would have long beaten William up!
After they finally reached the residence, Jordan tossed William at the door and turned around to leave without looking back. He felt that taking another glance at William would be tainting his eyes.

Cheyenne, who had been waiting upstairs worriedly for a long time, immediately rushed down after hearing the commotion downstairs. By the time she arrived downstairs, she happened to see William cursing incessantly as he entered the house.
“Dad, are you okay?” Cheyenne rushed forward and held William’s arm. She scrutinized him and found that although his face was a bit bruised and swollen, and some footprints were on his clothes, he fortunately had no severe injuries. However, it was obvious that he had been beaten up.
Only now did Cheyenne put her mind at ease and look at the door again. She found that there was no one else. Her father had come home alone.
“Dad, where’s Lucas? He didn’t come back with you?” Cheyenne hurriedly asked.
William snorted coldly and barked in anger, “You’re asking about him? He probably got beaten to death. He deserves it!”
Cheyenne’s heart sank. She was flustered and furious as she hurriedly grabbed William’s hand. “What exactly happened? Dad, you owed someone hundreds of thousands of dollars. If Lucas hadn’t brought the money to save you, you wouldn’t have been able to come back now! How can you say that about him?! How is he now?”
“What hundreds of thousands?” Karen also happened to come out of her room, just in time to hear Cheyenne. She immediately glared at William and hollered, “Make yourself clear! What hundreds of thousands of dollars?!”
Too anxious to hear her mother’s interrogation, Cheyenne shook William’s arm vigorously. “Dad! How is Lucas?”
“Hmph, I told that loser to just return the money to those people, but he insisted on standing up for me. Now, he’s in trouble. The Opulence isn’t somewhere he can show off.
“When I left, there were a whole bunch of people surrounding him. He might just be dead now! He really deserves it for being stupid!”
William’s tone was full of anger, displeased because Lucas had refused to heed his advice. He simply said that Lucas deserved to be killed, not considering at all that Lucas had gone to a place like the Opulence and confronted those people for the sake of saving him.
“How did that happen…” Cheyenne’s heart was full of disappointment and pain. At the thought that Lucas was likely in danger, she felt as though her heart was being stabbed by a million knives. In particular, her father’s cold and merciless words made her feel miserable!
If she hadn’t let Lucas go to save her father, he wouldn’t have encountered such danger at all!
Warm tears rolled down her cheeks.
“No, I have to go look for him!”
In her panic, Cheyenne no longer cared about anything else and ran straight out barefoot.
“Cheyenne!”
“Cheyenne!”
Cheyenne ignored the shouts coming from behind her and dashed out of the door, only to knock into someone and fall into their embrace.
“Ah!”

The Children of the Divine Limit
A realistic, psychological isekai: What pushes people to rejoice, to torture, to sacrifice, to kill? What gives some the will to survive and thrive in a new land and others the craving for dominance and exploitation? What would those who grew up without power all their lives do when given the approval and blessings of God Himself? How far will someone go to protect those close to them? How far will someone go to exact vengeance against an unjust world? How far can someone go before the abyss looks back at them? "Everything in the world is about sex — except sex. Sex is about power." - Oscar Wilde “Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power.” - Abraham Lincoln Greed is the worst of all the deadly sins; all of human history lays out the evidence to support this thesis. Consider all of the above before reading this story: A 12th-grade high school class is sent to another world; a world of sword and magic called Omicron where other-worlders are revered as heroes given the divine blessing of the Lord God Sapiora, creator of Omicron's human race. It is currently a world at war. The humans of Omicron need these divine heroes as weapons against the Demon Emperor and the demihuman forces of the evil god Azazelin. However, two students within the class, Ajax Leonid and Shaula Seikennith, haven't been given the hero's blessing. They've been given something else, something more curious; the blood of a deity who noticed their specialness. As a result, after escaping the clutches of their summoners who tried to kill them for their lack of heroic potential, Ajax and Shaula enter the new world of Omicron with no one on their side except each other. While wading through rivers of blood, Ajax and Shaula seek a stable life, a life where they can salvage happiness. They have each other above all else. Perhaps the cost will be worth it. Perhaps not.
