The Young Master in the Shadows

Chapter 159 :  Oliver (3)

Chapter 159 :  Oliver (3)

Zoe was seriously pissed off.

Oliver was supposed to be her best friend… and maybe more… He turned out to be a repeated sex offender.

She wanted to defend him, but officer Lea showed her the evidence… He didn’t stop even after getting castrated by Lily… Just how desperate was he? Was it her fault for telling him to wait until they were older before he left the village… She did wait, but that bastard didn’t… “AHHHHHH”. She screamed

“Big sister Zoe, are you ok?” Mia, who was eating breakfast with her, asked Zoe with concern.

“It’s nothing… Just this crazy friend of mine... He assaulted girls in the ladies' room. Do you think such a man is evil?” Zoe asked with a sigh making Mia freeze then hesitated…

“Big sister… Such a man must be castrated as fast as possible…” She replied.

“He had already been… And he was caught in the lady’s room again, stealing panties.” Zoe sighed again.

“What….” Mia opened her mouth … “Does such a creature really exist? Is that the fabled lost cause?” she asked, wondering if Zoe was messing with her.

“Never mind…. I will go to school, tell big sister Iris that I will be late for lunch.” Zoe said as she ran out of the house with a plan in her mind. For the last two days, she didn’t give Oliver a chance to explain himself, because she was a little annoyed by that Charlotte… But today she will clearly hear from him and investigate the situation by herself.

…

Arriving at school, Oliver was not there. So she quickly headed to her seat after greeting Victor and the girls who were busy massaging his shoulders. He seemed a little tired…and she had a very clear idea why… a man can’t have all those girls without getting tired.

At first, she was a little disturbed when she saw her cousin surrounded by girls. She was raised in a very conservative village, where men were expected to have only one wife. But after meeting her family, her worldview crashed… Each one of them had 10 wives at the very least. And they seemed happy!

She didn’t like it, but didn’t oppose it either…That’s their choice. But no matter what, She wants her husband to be loyal only to her… But looking at the girl's happy expressions as they teased her cousin she was a little jealous… Why do they like him so much?

Sure…. He was handsome, smart, and manly…… Not like her Oliver…. “DAMN IT” She yelled, making the classroom look at her, so she quickly hid her face in embarrassment… Due to the trouble with Oliver, she didn’t get a chance to make any new friends… and the way the class was looking at her, they probably thought she was crazy.

She sighed and got lost in her dark thoughts when the man she was thinking about entered the classroom… Oliver walked slowly…and kept scratching his ass. Is there something wrong with him?

The class looked at him and started whispering… They heard the rumors.., He didn’t care, just heading toward Zoe.

“Will you hear from me now?” He asked as he scratched more, making her a little displeased. Can’t he talk like a gentleman?

“Only if you tell the truth… What is your relationship with that Charlotte?” She asked.

“I told you, we are normal friends… Ahhh..” He said as he began scratching his ass with the desk behind him, making his classmates including Victor who had a weird expression on his face look at him.

“What's wrong with  you?” She asked with concern, forgetting about her anger.

“I… I don’t know.… I feel just a little uncomfortable ” He replied, his ass was very scratchy…

“You must have found a new way to earn a living… If the work is no longer usable, you can work with your back…” Tom, who was a minute ago busy flirting with Madeline, turned to Oliver and began to rudely make fun of him.

What happened next, no one expected… Oliver, who was talking with Zoe as he scratched his ass, suddenly turned around and jumped at Tom with angry bloodshot eyes. He punched him in the face, Or at least he tired…. He failed. Tom defended easily, then slapped Oliver only one time, sending him skipping into the corridor.

Zoe screamed and ran after Oliver to help him, but to her surprise, Oliver slapped her face sending her crashing into the wall, then he slowly stood up and took a gun out of thin air… Just as five big school guards appeared out of nowhere and handcuffed him then dragged him away… It took mere seconds.

Zoe wanted to follow, but at that moment, teacher Isabella reached the class and ordered her to go in, after giving Oliver a strange look.

Zoe could only obey and attend the class obediently, but she couldn’t concentrate at all, thinking about Oliver.

After class, she asked around, and Oliver was sent again to the police station… Should she go after him again? No, not this time… let that harlot go get him… She thought as she sat at her desk, then stood up and headed toward Victor.

“Lily…. Can you tell me what happened when you…… injured Oliver?” She asked as Lily was feeding her young master from a lunch box that was prepared with care.

“Ahhh…” Lily hesitated.

“Tell her everything,” Victor said,

“Well….” Lily slowly told Zoe everything, including the fact that Oliver might have been drugged back then, and that’s why she didn’t press charges.

“I see….” Zoe said with a sigh… She should have believed Oliver... But why did he just act like this…. He even slapped her.

“I don’t know if I can tell you this….But….. I believe that Oliver is being tricked.” Victor suddenly said making her look at him with some hope as he looked around making sure no one was listening. “You know that I am a merchant right?” He asked her.

“Yes…” She replied, not getting his idea.

“Well.. Don’t tell anyone, but my appraisal skill is very good, and….. I didn’t notice this a few days ago… But the necklace that Oliver is wearing seems to have a berserker effect… It's a piece of cursed equipment… It might be the reason why he is getting angry very fast.” Victor said. Making her open her eyes wide in shock. This changes everything!

“Not only that… The ring on his finger is a storage ring with tracking ability… This can’t be a coincidence.” Victor added, making Zoe stand up and run out of the room. Not noticing the smile on her cousin’s face.

…

Victor was both surprised and annoyed by Oliver’s situation.

His appraisal returned only one new line.

ABNORMAL STATUS: THE OLD NANNY'S PUNISHMENT CURSE S (1/14 DAYS)

He knew this one, it was a little obscure curse that caused the target to start by scratching their butts… Then it would grow so unmanageable that they would need to tie their hand to stop it from scratching their asses into nothingness!!

This curse is temporary though… It seems like whoever did it, didn’t want to be discovered… It was a form of punishment.

Oliver, as far as the report prepared by Kai goes, had no enemies… Other than some stupid young master who stole his girlfriend… and Lily.

So the culprit behind this curse can only be that siscon best friend of his. Yulian Von Krone, Lily’s brother.

And that would also mean that his predictions were correct, they found her and decided to leave her to continue her test.

As for the reason he told Zoe about Oliver being used, it was because he knew the future, and Zoe was a man-hater by then. So no matter what, those two would probably fight each other sooner or later.

And when Zoe loses all hope in humanity, she might fall for him when he swoops down to save her in her darkest moment… Or at the very least, he would be one of her few friends. And that’s good enough, as his harem was getting a little unmanageable.

Maybe she can even make Oliver forget about his revenge on Lily... Although that would be hard.

“Ouch…..  Yes right there….” Victor said as Mina used his delicate hands to massage his back as he lay on a massage chair in the gym.

“Why doesn’t the young master take a healing pill?” Mana asked as she helped her sister spread some oil on his back.

“That would be detrimental for muscle growth… and for skill scoring.“ He added. For the last few days, he was training hard in sword and different martial arts. He was pushing the system to register them as skills for him.

He had already got the Advanced sword skill, but he had to swing the sword 1000 times perfectly to get it… Now he is working on the Pain tolerance skill… The training involved him being kicked around by Alpha… Lily wouldn’t do it.

“I see….” Mana said, not understanding his point.

“ Aria has just tested you, she found a suitable project to launch Monica as a superstar... But she is asking if you are sure, as it would be costly. " Lily who was sitting by his side playing with his phone suddenly said.

"Absolute... That girl has amazing potential... And bloodline...Tell her to go ahead. It would be a shame not to use her." He said as he enjoyed his massage.

Lily nodded then began to write... Then stopped and looked outside the gym's glass dome... Nothing was there.

"Young master... I have this weird feeling that someone is watching the mansion… But despite scanning the perimeter multiple times, I found nothing.” Lily who was watching from the window said.

“Oh…. “ Victor frowned… “From now on, you will always stay with me. Leave the outside work for your sisters.” He said as he decided to put the array in the active mode and scare them away... He didn't mind them watching, but if they got too close, they needed to be punished.

“Does the young master know something?” She asked.

“They are here to watch you…” Victor said, briefly, making Lily swallow hard as she understood his meaning. The twins were a little curious but didn’t ask.

Suddenly Victor’s phone rang. And as usual Lily answered.

“Yes…?”

"..."

“Yes, master… He is right here.” She said as she handed the phone to Victor… It was his father.

“Hi, daddy… I am a little busy now… Can we talk later” Victor said “ …Ouch… Yes there….” he told Mina.

“No…. This is more important than your perverted games…. And call me Father!” Theodore scolded him.

“Fine…. What can I do for you father?” Victor asked as he gestured to the twins to take it easy.

“Your mother and sister will be arriving tonight, you will be responsible for hosting them,” Theodore said bluntly… Making Victor remember that he did invite them when they were on the island… Then he fell into a coma and forgot all about this!

“My house is a mess today…. Can you host them for two days? I can get them the day after tomorrow…” Victor said… That Mr.Kline is supposed to attack tomorrow night… if he swallowed the bait.

“No… I am having an Or……. A hobbyist party here. So it is not appropriate for a little girl to be around,” Theodore said with some embarrassment, causing Victor to curse at his perverted father…

“How about Iris's house?” Victor asked.

“I said it must be yours…. George will deliver them to your doorstep, so take care of them.” Theodore said… He sounded a little impatient.

“Fine… Anything else” Victor asked… He will have to adjust the illusion array….

“Yes… The dungeon raid was delayed indefinitely… So you would have to go to NewLure city by yourself and get your new concubine Nova…” Theodore said.

“Ah… Why was the raid delayed?” Vitor asked.

“Not now……. No, I am talking to You…” Theodore said as Victor could hear the sound of a slutty girl across the phone… “We will talk later about that…. Bring your mother to the lover’s den tomorrow and we will talk…There is an update about Linda that I think would interest you…. No… The vibrating one......” His father hung up… He sounded ‘busy’.

Victor sighed, as he looked at the twins.

“Quickly go prepare two rooms on the upper floor… My mother and little sister are coming for a visit…” He said, making them both excited and worried… What if she didn’t like them?

…

Oliver was very angry… Charlotte was refusing to answer his calls…And his butt is too scratchy…The doctor could not help…. And that officer Lea was Eyeing him suspiciously…

“Officer… Please uncuff me….” He really wanted to scratch…

“No way…. You already assaulted two officers” She said as she eyed him with disgust.

He has been losing his calm very quickly lately…. It must be because he met that slut, Lily!

Suddenly the door of the interrogation room opened, and to his surprise, Zoe walked in with the police chief, a burly guard, and an old man with thick glasses.

“Officer Lea…. Please leave the room... This is an order.” He said,

Lea looked at the chief and Zoe… Then left, after making Oliver a threatening gesture that only he could see.

“I am sorry.” That was the first thing Oliver said…. He didn’t mean to slap Zoe’s face, but he was very angry.

Zoe said nothing, she just gestured to the burly man who held Oliver in place.

Oliver wanted to activate his skill or the defense necklace to push the man away, but strangely nothing happened… The man has stuck some kind of a talisman on him.

Zoe quickly approached him then took his storage ring and the defense necklace on his neck then put them on the table.

“ZOE!!! What is the mea…..mmmmmmm” He screamed, but the guard quickly stuffed a cloth in his mouth. They have come prepared.

“Master Yun, please analyze those two for me.” She said politely to the old man.

“Of course, my lady.” The old man said as he began touching the necklace and then the ring…. “Oh!”

“Found anything? “She asked, as Oliver frowned as he rubbed his butt on the chair. It started itching again.

“The necklace is cursed…. I  can’t analyze it, but I happened to see this one before at an auction… It should be the Berserker Curse if my memory serves me right… And the ring has a simple tracking array.” The old man said as he adjusted his glasses.

“Where did you get this stuff? The necklace is the reason you have been losing your mind lately… Haven't you?” She explained to Oliver then asked him in a bossy manner as she displayed a character he has never seen her in before …. That’s of a young noble lady.

A million times better than that slut!

“Charlotte…” Was the first word he said after his mouth was unrestrained…. That B*tch fooled him! And he was really angry now.
