Chapter 761: Forgetting something
Sensing Jayden’s gaze on them, they all bowed. Then the three assassins returned to Jayden’s shadow while Viser stood some distance away since he liked to stay alone.
“So, darling, what happened to Xerome? Hecate told us what had happened; is he fine?” Sasha asked, as worried expressions appeared on the faces of all of them.
“Xerome, he…” While speaking, Jayden paused for a moment, then he sighed and spoke:
“It was the Beast King, Malgor, who was disguising himself as Xerome, as you all must have heard. So after he went away from here, I went to the…”
Then Jayden explained everything that happened, omitting a few unnecessary parts, and the more they listened, the angrier and more upset their expressions became. They were all filled with rage and sadness at the same time.
“So where is he now? He is fine, right?” Sophie spoke.
“Yes, well, he looks more than just fine,” Jayden spoke as he pointed.
They all looked up at the same time and saw Xerome flying around at such a fast speed. There were only minor changes in his appearance, but his strength had also increased a lot.
*BOOM*
Xerome landed on the ground in front of them, then laughing out loud, he spoke: “Hahaha Boss, this feels so much better. I feel like I could defeat just anyone.”
“Oh, want to give it a go then?” Jayden asked, as he was holding Emma’s hand.
“Uh… Not really,” Xerome shook his head immediately. Now he was sure he would finally be able to get a girl, one of the best.
“Do you remember everything that happened after you were kidnapped?” Sasha asked.
“No, it just feels as if I have woken up from a long sleep,” Xerome replied. This was almost like a second life for him.
“Anyway, let’s get out of this place; I’m feeling hungry,” Jayden said as he opened a portal. Then they all walked out of it and appeared back inside their house.
“How is everything going with the Night Corp?” Eleanor questioned. They had been away for quite a few days now.
“Kate is handling everything for now. You can check things later. So what should we eat now—wait, why do I feel like I’m forgetting something?”
Jayden mumbled, then he tried his best to remember, and as his gaze fell onto his hand, he finally remembered.
“Oh wait, I forgot Eve in the Netherworld.” Jayden stood up hastily, then he opened a portal and went back to the purple world.
Eve was exploring the place, so she had gone a little far away from them and then got lost.
When Jayden found her, she was almost crying, and as soon as she saw him, she jumped into his arms and began to complain.
Jayden brought her back home. He fed her some energy crystals that he had gotten on Mount Olympus, and only then did she finally relax, so she went back to her tattoo form.
“So, shall we eat something now?” Jayden spoke. It was still the time of the afternoon.
After he had asked, the maids began to prepare food for everyone. It didn’t take long for several dishes to appear in front of them, and soon they began to eat.
Jayden decided to spend some time with his family before going back to Mount Olympus to complete his plan. They all talked happily; everyone looked quite cheerful. It seemed they were all happy with the increase in their strength.

After eating, they all went to the Night Corp, most of them to just enjoy and some to work.
“Sigh, Boss, the public was quite angry after the most beautiful woman event. It was a good thing our name was not associated with it in any way, or they would be coming here every day to destroy things.
The announcer had to disappear so no one could find him, and that man was also not seen again, who was dressed like a woman,”
Kate spoke as soon as he saw Jayden. Like always, he seemed tense, but his high salary was stopping him from quitting.
“It’s fine then, isn’t it? Is there any other news?” Jayden asked in a hurry, since just a couple of days ago a game was launched which he wanted to play.
“Yes, when you weren’t here, the invaders attacked another part, but since we weren’t aware of it in advance this time, the invaders destroyed a few things and injured some people. So the public seems to be a little angry at us because of that,” Kate reported.
“Didn’t we take care of the invaders?” Jayden questioned as he walked towards his office.
“Yes, we got there before anyone could intervene and killed all the invaders, but still, the public was angry since we were a little late.
And it also seems the number and strength of the invaders is increasing each time they appear,” Kate added.
“Well, just let the public be. They will eventually forget about it unless our opposition companies keep blowing this matter.
And as for the invaders, it looks like we need to increase the strength of our bodyguards,” Jayden mumbled and decided to get them to do some training.
These were all the bodyguards that were previously werewolves and now had become vampires. They were part of Lisa’s family before, but all of their strength had stagnated for some time now.
“Is there something else?” Jayden asked again.
“Well, yes, it seems outside of our territory, a new big group of terrorists has appeared, and they are much stronger than the previous ones.
Since Night Corp had previously dealt with one terrorist group, they are directly threatening us and even asked us to create weapons for them or they will attack us in the future,” Kate spoke.
*Sigh* So much has happened in the past few days. I just want some relaxing time now,” he thought and then spoke:
“It’s fine. Release the news that Night Corp is going to hunt that group of bugs. Anyway, tell me, did you prepare everything I asked you for?”
“Yes, sir, I prepared everything as you instructed. You can always count on the best assistant in the entire world.
And I’ll release that news immediately, though this is going to make the terrorists angry, and I’m sure you don’t really care about that. Then, please enjoy.”
Saying that, Kate walked away. He knew Jayden was going to do what he wanted anyway.
Even though releasing this news was dangerous, Kate decided to do exactly that and even decided to release some really bad words about the terrorists.
After walking away from there, Jayden headed straight towards his office. He was feeling quite excited to see the changes that he had asked Kate to make.
And just as he entered, Jayden’s eyes sparkled. His office was completely redesigned. There were several types of lights, a complete gaming setup, and everything he needed.
Emma was already sitting there on the seat that was placed beside Jayden’s chair. She had a smile on her face as she waited for him.
