Todd stood up then. He turned around and walked into the room. He returned wielding a butcher's knife. He said while glaring at Asher, "You're too arrogant, you bastard. I may not be able to kill you, but I can cripple you. Have you ever thought of that?"Asher's mouth twitched. He roared at Todd, "Try me! I'm the Ashleigh clan's—""I know, you're Leroy's brother, but so what? It's not like you can beat me. I'm not afraid of Leroy coming here either!" Todd shouted.The butcher's knife in his hand was covered in a layer of green spiritual energy. His figure flickered, and he quickly charged toward Asher and the two cloaked men while his large body surged with spiritual energy."Stop him, stop him now!" Asher yelled at his two subordinates.His subordinates were merely in the intermediate stage of the Divinity Phase. Before they could even do anything, they had already lost to the giant body rushing toward them with an overwhelming force.Todd threw two punches and sent the two sub

When they got off the plane, a private car from the House of Custos was already waiting for them. Isaac could feel the tense atmosphere in the car. These soldiers looked sorrowful.It took over two hours to drive to the Hepton Funeral Home. Night had already fallen then. Connor's timing was pretty accurate.The last time Isaac came to Pecling, he'd killed Rodrick and his son, Rodney. Their funerals had been held at the Oreamnos Funeral Parlor. But only the country's important officers were buried in the Hepton Graveyard.Police tape sealed off the roads ten miles away from the graveyard. There were outposts every 30 feet, and each soldier wore a black armband on their arms.Isaac's heart sank. It was real."This whole place is creepy. Isaac, are we attending a funeral?" Todd asked with a sigh as he looked at the military vehicles and outposts on both sides of the road. "Don't ask, and don't speak." Isaac's emotions were all over the place.Arian had always helped him, although

The black silhouette was fast. He might be even quicker than Isaac's Phantom Steps and could even vanish into thin air.Colton's and Arian's men fell one after another. That shadow had no weapons; he simply punched a hole in the martial artists' chests. It was simple yet effective!With eight or so people left, Arian suddenly risked his life and rushed toward the dark silhouette. He began to fight him.Isaac's eyes narrowed. He knew Arian was trying to buy some time for Colton and the others.But Colton didn't flee. Instead, they all grouped together and began to fight the black silhouette to the death.Arian fell. The black silhouette had punched a hole in his abdomen. Colton and the other six grabbed his body and ran for their lives.Only then did the dark silhouette stop. He raised his head to gaze at the drone. The camera was getting closer and closer.A pale face with a slim, sharp chin stared into the lens. The man's figure suddenly flickered, and he scaled the castle wall

"If it's really a vampire, I'll look up ways to kill it and send them to your phone," Denvor said, scratching his head.The wake took place the next day. In the afternoon, the coffin was buried. It was a simple process. Ethan, Isaac, and two other generals served as the pallbearers.In the evening, a black Audi sped toward a secret base in the northern suburbs of Pecling. Two Jeeps with military plates escorted it from the front and back.Todd sat in the passenger seat, looking out the window with wide eyes.Meanwhile, Cassius and Isaac sat in the back. The two of them stayed quiet the entire way. They were heading to the secret base to meet the Shadow Soldiers.Although Ethan had ordered Isaac to lead the Shadow Soldiers, he had yet to take control over them."Er, Isaac, I know there had been a lot of misunderstandings between us. I hope you don't take them to heart," Cassius said, breaking the silence."What are you saying, Commander Romero? I don't hold grudges," Isaac said w

Ever since the Dragon Soldiers started practicing martial arts, every breakthrough had either been deadly or excruciating. They had never had it easy before."Alright, you're all here now. I've made two action plans. You must know it by heart."After dinner, Isaac and the other ten headed out. They were going to enter the city of Dougs in the Kingdom of Bridgon as tourists.Before getting into the car, Ethan called Isaac aside. "Isaac, remember, your lives are the utmost priority, especially yours." Soon, he added, "This is also an order from the highest authority."Isaac paused. He nodded and said, "Alright, I understand. Please tell that person that I, Isaac Garten, will accomplish my mission."In the dead of night, a packed passenger plane soared into the Pecling's skies toward the Kingdom of Bridgon. Isaac set a deadline of three days for this operation. Whether the action plans succeeded or not, they had to return no matter what.Ten hours later, the plane touched down in
