The Bodyguard System

Bang!

The chains immediately exploded into dust due to the pressure that they were experiencing. Scott was released from the binding, and he could feel that he could use his ability once again.

But that was not his point of focus. Instead, he was looking at Jaden, completely flabbergasted. He could not understand how Jaden was actually a mutant like himself.

He tried to recall during the time that they had been together, but he had never seen Jaden using his ability at all. Additionally, Jaden had been engaging in several street fights back then, but he had never used his abilities, considering the injuries that he came back with.

Yes, even with an ability like telekinesis, as long as a person was punched, they would obviously get injured. It was not as if the telekinesis ability was going to increase the defensive ability of the mutant.

But from the power that had been demonstrated by Jaden here, it was clear that he would not allow anybody to get close to him. He would be able to easily crash all of them before they could get near him.

Jaden did not care about what Scott was thinking about, but instead, he went ahead and held him. It was clear that Scott had been going through a lot during the time that he was here, something that could be seen from the fact that he was completely weak.

Jaden remembered the time that Scott had helped him several times. Even during the time that he was leaving, he had left an apartment for him.

"Don't worry Grandpa. Let's get out of here. If you want an explanation of what is going on, I will tell you later on after I get you to a place so that you can rest. As for the apartment, I renovated it, well actually, I had just demolished it and reconstructed it with better materials." Jaden stated.

Scott only shook his head. He did not understand how Jaden had gotten here, and how he had gotten the ability to become a mutant. But nevertheless, he was grateful that Jaden was here.

Even though he was not willing to join the dark side, that did not imply that he enjoyed being tortured. Since Jaden was here to save him, then he would go with him.

But just as Jaden and Scott were about to get out, another familiar figure appeared outside the prison that Scott was being held. That person was actually none other than Lucas Smith.

Jaden could not help but wonder at the coincidence. He was here to deal with the Smith family, but he had not even decided to deal with this guy. After all, it was this guy that had attacked him back then during the time that he was a bouncer at the Dynamic night club.

It was not that he was blaming this guy for having his bodyguards beating him, considering that it was only after he had been beaten that he ended up getting the system. But even then, that did not imply that he was going to enjoy someone beating him just because they wanted to.

The moment that Lucas arrived at the dungeon, ready to continue the torture and convince that person inside there to join them, he was completely stunned by what he saw. There was the prisoner that he had here, but there was someone else with him inside there.

But the thing that completely surprised him was the fact that the chains that were binding Scott were special, indicating that not just any ordinary person could break them.

This implied that the person in front of him, who was holding Scott was definitely a mutant. But, this person seemed familiar.

After thinking for a while, Lucas finally came to know who this person was. Was this guy not the same person that he had ended up beating back then? Additionally, was it not the same person that he had gone to look for, after being sent by his father?

For some unknown reasons, his father had recalled him back to the family, and the matter of him going to look for any information about the research was canceled. Of course, he understood that the reason why that was the case was simply because of his uncle that was competing against his father.

Regardless, the thing that shocked him what's the fact that the person in front of him was actually a mutant. How the heck did he become a mutant? After all, it had not been quite a long time since the last time that they had met, and his bodyguards had beaten him up the first time.

As for the second occasion, even though he had managed to beat up his bodyguards, he did not manage to deal with the person that was accompanying him. After all, that person was a mutant, and his strength was not comparable to ordinary people.

Back then, even though he was completely displeased by that old man for not taking action against Jaden, he had no other choice. In any case, there was nothing that he could do against that mutant.

That was the exact reason why he was trying so much in order to get Scott to work for him. As long as he had a mutant under his control, they would be able to do whatever he wanted them to do.

But if he had a mutant that was under his father or under the family, they would not even pay much attention to him. In any case, they would not do that unless he became the future family head, but that was not something that could be guaranteed at the moment.

"What are you doing here?" After a moment of silence, Lucas asked as he looked at Jaden.

Jaden, upon hearing the question, did not respond. Instead, he simply activated the telekinesis ability, and pulled Lucas towards him. But being obstructed by the bars that were the door of the prison, he was not able to get to Jaden.

And since that was the case, Lucas's body was completely pressed against the metallic bars, and the pressure was increasing. At this point, Lucas was feeling extreme pain, while at the same time, fear appeared within his eyes.

"Grandpa, is he the one that was torturing you?" Jaden asked as he looked at Scott.

Scott looked towards the person on the other side. He immediately recognized this kid. It was this kid that was trying so much, going to the extent of torturing him, in order to force him to join them.

For a moment, Scott could not help but think that this guy was an idiot. If you want someone to join you, then you just have to convince them. But torturing them? Of course, they would agree, and later on, they would just betray you, and kill you instead.

"Yep, that's the kid." Scott responded after a moment of silence.

Jaden did not even bother to ask Lucas about the reason why he was torturing Scott. Instead, using his telekinesis ability, he deformed the door, and in the next moment, the metallic bars wrapped around Lucas's body.

While he was taking Scott out of the dungeon where he was being kept, the metallic ball in which Lucas was contained in was thrown inside the cell where they were holding Scott. Read exclusive chapters at empire

Aaargh!

Lucas had already begun screaming from the very first moment that he was attacked by Jaden using his telekinesis ability. And now, he began experiencing immense fear, when he noticed that he was currently imprisoned in between the bars.

The bars that were used In order to create the doors of the cell were of a high quality. So of course, considering that he himself was not a mutant, it was impossible for him to be able to break them.

Jaden completely ignored the screams, and the moment that the two of them left the cell, he immediately used his telekinesis ability to exert pressure on the ball of bars that was surrounding Lucas.

Lucas was completely horrified the moment that he realized that the metallic bars that were surrounding his body were actually contracting. It was at this moment that he understood the horror of mutants.

He tried to scream, trying to fight, just to find a way of getting out of the cage that he was enveloped in, but no matter how much he tried, he realized that it was completely futile. He could not resist at all.

And the pressure that kept on increasing, it increased to the extent that his bones began breaking. And in just a little while, the metallic bars had been compressed until they formed a small round ball.

As for Lucas, his entire body had been crushed. Currently, inside the cell, a pool of blood had already been created, with pieces of bones. Lucas was no more.

On the other side, Scott immediately understood what was happening inside the cell the moment that he heard the screams that were coming from Lucas. But he did not say anything, as he thought that that youth deserved it.

But just as they were getting out of the dungeon, which was a basement, they met up with two mutants that were guarding the place. At first, the two of them were completely stunned upon seeing Jaden and the old man coming out.

But in the next moment, they immediately took action. First of all, this old man was currently a prisoner. And since he was here, and the young master that had just entered had not come out, even though they had been hearing the screams, they immediately understood that the screams were not coming from the old man, but instead, from the young master.

They could not allow this person to leave. They did not know the current condition that the young master was in, but if he was harmed, then they would be in trouble.
