Author's point of view... {System Alert} After a long time, Leo received an alert notification from his system. He was meant to be deciphering the thirty-digit code by the end of the month, and it was almost time for him to finish his assignment. However, because he had excelled in his everyday tasks, the code he needed to decipher was already decoded. But now, when he wasn't able to use any of his superpowers, this notification stirred something in him. The next day was the last day of the month that his system had given as a deadline. And now he lost his powers. Could it be that he failed?? Was that all related? Or did he make any mistake that led to this? Confused, he slowly touched the screen and the message flashed on his screen. {**"System Alert: All supernatural abilities temporarily disabled. Duration: 24 hours. To regain access, return to the old magical cuboid cottage."**} Leo’s heart sank. The miraculous system that had given him his powers, that had made him

Author's point of view... Leo and Jessica reached the subway entrance just as the goons closed in. Leo shoved a token into the turnstile, pulling Jessica through. The platform was crowded, small mercy that might give them the cover they needed. “There!” Leo pointed to an approaching train. The doors slid open with a hiss, and he hurriedly pushed Jessica inside. Literally shoving her inside it. Jessica tensed. She thought they would escape together but Leo had other plans. “Go! Stay on the train, no matter what happens, don't get down or let them catch you!” Jessica’s eyes widened in panic. “Leo, no! You can’t—” she screamed in fear, not for her life but at that very moment, she felt as though she would never see him again. “I’ll distract them!” Leo interrupted his voice firm. “I’ll find you, I promise. Now go!” The announcement was made, and the doors began to close; Jessica tried to get off but was pushed by a huge crowd of people running to get in. "No...Leo..." she sc

Author's point of view... Leo was now completely familiar with their plans. They were actually going to burn the entire place along with him. And he can never let them win. He had many incomplete missions that he had to complete in his life. How could he die, just like that...! “Come on, Leo,” he whispered through gritted teeth. “Just a little more…” With a final, desperate lunge, Leo reached the window. He grabbed hold of the bars, pulling himself up until he was level with the small opening. It was narrow, but just wide enough for him to squeeze through if he could remove the bars. The scene looked familiar. Just like in the past. He scoffed. Why the hell he always end up in situations like this? Leo fumbled at the bars, trying to find a weak spot, but his hands were slick with sweat, and he could feel his strength fading fast. The door behind him creaked open, and he heard the voices grow louder, more urgent. “He’s trying to escape!” "Damn it...! They found me...!" L

Author's point of view... Getting out of the village, Leo hurried towards the city. He had been trying to reach out to Daniel and Jessica all this while, but none answered his calls. He couldn't help but feel uneasy about this. "Something might have happened there..." The moment he stepped out of the train, he hired a taxi to his restaurant. In the meantime, Leo also tried to call James, and soon James received his call. But before Leo could talk, he heard a sharp and painful cry followed by some commotion in the background. "Hello, James..." Leo called out desperately but James didn't respond. Soon after, the call got disconnected. When he reached the restaurant, he saw that something was not right. His heart pounded as he took in the scene outside the restaurant. A mass of people had gathered, shouting insults and throwing punches at James and Hannah, that young girl. "What the hell is happening...!!" He ran towards it. Hannah’s face was bruised, her clothes torn

Author's point of view... This was his first time visiting this place yet these people acted as if they knew he was a criminal or something. As he was here already, Leo decided to follow suit. There was no point in fighting back now. He’d known what was coming the moment he agreed to meet Jessica here. And he needs to act along to unveil the person, the one behind it. Once and for all. Inside the mansion, the sneers and contemptuous glares from the other family members made his skin crawl. They all stood there, gathered as though awaiting his execution, ready to pounce at the first sign of weakness. Thomas, Margaret, and almost all the peers were here. But what astonished Leo the most was a man standing with an imposing aura, Dave. They were all there, faces twisted in disgust and anger. Just as the guards dragged Leo inside, someone almost lunged at him. “You bloody scoundrel...!! How dare you cheat us?!” Margaret was the first to lunge at him, her fingers curling around
