Chapter 108
The following morning, Darius awoke later than usual. This was anticipated because of his extreme
exhaustion from the previous day’s events. He noticed that it was already 11 am when he looked at the
time.
He got out of bed and drank a bottle of water before going about his morning routine. Darius had no idea
he had become a martial artist, so he meditated before practicing his usual martial arts moves, as
instructed in the tattered book.
Unbeknownst to him, those martial arts moves were no longer appropriate for him. They were only useful
when he wasn’t a fully developed martial artist. He needed to alter his martial arts techniques now that
he was a fully awakened martial artist because otherwise, he would make little to no progress at all.
He finished his morning routine a few minutes later. He stripped naked; exposing his ridiculously toned
body, and went into the bathroom for a quick shower. After he finished showering, he changed into some
casual clothing before leaving his room.
His grandfather was already having his breakfast when he appeared at the stairs. When his grandfather
noticed his appearance, the gaze in his eyes softened.
“Come over, Darius.” His grandfather said warmly; inviting him over to the table.
Darius smiled softly and walked over to the dining table. His grandfather locked his gaze on one of the

attractive body, she failed to notice his grandfather staring at her.
was
He coughed loudly to get her attention while frowning slightly. The maid’s cheeks burned as she averted
her gaze from Darius. The maid had flushed with embarrassment as a result of his grandfather’s actions
She understood his stare and nodded timidly before scurrying away.
Darius took notice of this minor action. He shrugged as he noticed his grandfather staring at him intently.
It wasn’t his fault that the maid was staring at him and that she failed to respond to grandfather on time.
Nonetheless, he did not express his feelings. All he could do was smile helplessly.
The maid reappeared a few seconds later with a tray of food. There were several exquisite dishes on the
tray, and it appeared to be quite extravagant for just breakfast.
“Isn’t this too extravagant for just breakfast?” Darius asked skeptically as the maid dropped the tray on
the dining table.
“It isn’t. You need to eat well.” His grandfather replied stubbornly.
“But-” Darius started, but his grandfather interrupted him firmly.
Darius sighed but said nothing else. There was no use arguing with his grandfather; and besides, he was
extremely famished.
He finished his meal quickly because it was so delicious. His grandfather gave him an affectionate look
as he ate. He finished his meal in a short period of time.
“Are you busy today?” His grandfather asked suddenly just as Darius was about to exit the dining room.
“No, I’m not.” He answered after thinking for a brief moment.
“That’s good.” His grandfather remarked. “I would like you to do something for me.” His grandfather
added. Darius turned back to face his grandfather when he heard his grandfather’s words. He couldn’t
help but :
get curious.
“What is it, Grandpa?” Darius asked curiously.
His grandfather didn’t answer him immediately; instead he motioned his hands lightly. Seconds later,
Bruce appeared with a document in his hands. He bowed respectfully to his grandfather and handed the
documents over to him before turning his gaze to Darius and greeting him politely.
“I want you to go to SVL Royal Hotel: I have a very important meeting with an associate there, but I will
not be able to meet with him today. Therefore I want you to go in my stead.” His grandfather said
courteously
‘That’s not a problem Grandpa. You don’t need to worry about it.” Darius said.
“Thank you. As for the person you’re meeting with, don’t worry about it.” His grandfather said.
“I have already informed him in advance that he’ll be meeting with you.”
He then handed over the document to Darius.
“Just hand over this document to him. He’ll naturally know what to do.” His grandfather concluded.
“Alright Grandpa.” Darius replied politely.
“Bruce, prepare the cars and take him to SVL Royal Hotel.” His grandfather ordered.
“No. I’ll be fine by myself.” Darius quickly interjected. He knew how extravagant his grandfather could be,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmand frankly speaking, he wasn’t used to such attention yet.
His grandfather frowned slightly was about to speak up, but Darius hastily spoke up.
“It’s just to meet with your associate and hand over the document. There’s no need to take so many cars.
It’ll just attract unwanted attention.” Darius persuaded obstinately.
“But you-”
“Grandpa. I’ll be fine.” Darius said firmly as he looked into his grandfather’s eyes.
His grandfather hesitated for a bit. It seemed like he wanted to speak more, but in the end chose to
swallow his words when he saw his grandson’s obstinate gaze.
“Alright. Do as you wish.” He said helplessly. “Thank you.” Darius said sincerely.
“I’ll be leaving now.” Darius added. Since he already had his shower earlier before his breakfast, there
was nothing delaying him from leaving now. Furthermore, he wanted to leave sooner so that he could
finish the task as soon as possible.
He went to the garage, where there were many expensive cars parked. The bodyguards in the mansion
offered to drive him to his destination, but he declined. He didn’t see why he needed bodyguards to
accompany him when it was such a simple task.
Furthermore, their presence would only make him the center of attention. He didn’t want to be in the
spotlight in any way following the recent assassination attempt.
He eventually found a suitable simple car after a brief walk. It was a Mercedes Benz S class, reportedly
valued at $150,000. It fell short of the other cars in the garage. However, it was ideal for him.
He then took the car keys from the staff member in charge of garage maintenance and got inside the car
before driving off.
