Dickens was there as well, and he stared at William with respect. He knew how terrifying a Divine Realm- Master could be.
The old lady hiding in the house where Mia and Janet were locked in suddenly got grim. “A Divine Realm Master
Her sons darted into the yard, looking solemn. They were no match for a Divine Realm Master, not even if they fought together.
“Damn it, we kidnapped a Divine Realm Master’s sister?” The half–naked man panicked. “What now, Mom?”
The old lady said darkly, “We’ll need to kill and dispose of them. We can’t let that man know they’re here, and tell the hall master to pick us up.”
“One!” William started counting as he closed his eyes and turned on his divine senses, trying to pick up the energy of everything around him. “Two!” His senses were spreading to a twenty–yard radius from where he stood. “Three!” Then, it reached thirty yards.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and found three Qi State masters hiding in a house nearby. This is odd. A silhouette sped across the houses and dropped into the courtyard..
The old lady and her sons were about to enter when they realized someone appeared behind them. The old lady launched an attack without saying a word, but the ground rumbled. William approached her at a blinding speed and slammed his palm into her.
The lady was sent flying away and hit a tree hard. Her innards were crushed, and she coughed up blood and chunks of flesh. Shocked, her sons screamed and pounced at William. They were both Qi State masters, and in most cases, they would be a force to be reckoned with, but not when William was involved.
Before they could even get near, William sent them flying with a few kicks. They slammed into the wall and bled through their faces. There was no need to even ask these people where they kept Mia and Janet. William switched his third eye on and found the girls in the cellar, unconscious.
He quickly found the cellar’s entrance and brought the ladies back up. After a close check, he realized they were just unconscious from the drug. Aside from that, they were fine. He massaged Mia, and the girl slowly woke up. Surprised to see her brother, Mia said, “William!”
William nodded and woke Janet up as well.
Janet leaped up and pointed at the old lady. “She’s a meanie!”
William approached the dying lady. “Why did you kidnap her?”
The lady was on her last legs and wasn’t able to talk. William kicked her and roused what remained of her life force. The lady’s face turned red, and she shrieked, “I am a believer of the Skygod Cult, you cur! They’ll come after you for this!”
“Shut up and answer my question.”
The lady hissed, “Headquarters ordered us to kidnap girls from ages fifteen to eighteen. They have a use
for them.”

“What kind of use?” asked William.

*HQ will train them up to be useful subjects. The lady’s face paled gradually, and then she died.
William looked at the men. They only received a kick, which was not lethal. At the moment, they were just knocked out. William stared at the half–naked man. “Any more of you in Halivaara?”
“Don’t think this means you’ve won.” The man glared at him. “Our hall master is coming to save us. He’s a Divine Realm Master too. He’ll avenge us.”
Just then, someone opened the door, and the Martial Patrol Brigade, the Criminal Apprehenders, and the Special Forces came in.
Quincy was happy to see Mia and Janet. “So, you found them, Mr. Barrett.”
William nodded. “Yes, and I found you guys some human traffickers. Take them away.”
Bradley approached the lady on the ground. She’s dead. He cleared his throat and said, “We were forced to use lethal force because the suspect resisted arrest. Zoie, take the rest of the suspects back for interrogation.”
Zoie obliged. She then asked her comrades to help her. William took the human traffickers‘ power away in case they tried anything funny.
Quincy chuckled and took a step ahead. “Do you need anything else, Mr. Barrett?”
“No.” William shook his head. “Thanks for the help.”
“It’s alright,” Quincy said quickly.
Everyone went their separate ways. William, Mia, Gwendolyn, and Jose made their way back. Halfway through, Jose led Janet away from the group to bring her home.
William and the rest arrived at Gwendolyn’s place. Melisenna still wasn’t aware that Mia was kidnapped. William told Mia to keep it a secret so their mother wouldn’t be worried.
Mia was a little shocked by the incident, so William stayed with her for a bit. Gwendolyn asked her what happened. When she was told of the incident, she hissed, “Damn that hag.”
William asked, “Ever heard of Skygod Cult? They claim to be believers.”
Gwendolyn shook her head. “No, but it’s a cult alright. No decent religion would ask their believers to kidnap young women.”
William then called Danny. Danny had lived a long enough life to know of the Skygod Cult. It was an evil organization, and a powerful one too. Rumors had it that their backer was a powerful man. The cult was annihilated thrice but came back stronger each time.
William hung up, looking pensive. He was about to call Brandon when an unknown number called. He took the call, and a dark voice hissed, “William Barrett?”
“Who are you?” William frowned.
“Your nightmare,” said the man evilly. “You killed the cult’s believers. That is a sin punishable by death to you and your family.”

William’s blood boiled. “Skygod Cult scum, I presume? You want a battle? I’ll give you a battle. Pick the spol. I’ll be right there.”
“You’re gutsy.” The man sneered. “Deadgod Temple, eight sharp tonight!
“I’ll be there.”
William hung up, and Gwendolyn said, “You shouldn’t go. They’re clearly prepared to kill you. This is dangerous.”
William looked grim. “They found me and my number in mere minutes. They’re more powerful than I thought. I need to retaliate. I need to make sure they know I’m not to be trifled with.” He then took out a card. It had the number of his senior on it. A moment of hesitation later, he made the call.
Centralis was home to a lot of the houses of ancient nobility. A young gentleman in a white robe was standing in one such house. He seemed really young for his age, and he was sitting in the center of the great hall while staring at the men before him coldly.
The men standing before him were leaders in their own right. They were bigwigs on their own turfs, but they stayed silent in the presence of this man. None dared to raise their heads either.
