That night, after years of disappearance, Evan stood before a mirror, gazing at his reflection that had changed so much. The large mirror in the room reflected a figure who had undergone numerous transformations. His once black hair had turned white, a transformation possibly caused by age or the effects of years spent in Tenebros. His formerly robust physique now exuded more authority. He had left behind a past filled with hardships and now stood as a new person, shaped by his journeys and experiences. Evan carefully tidied himself up. He shaved the mustache and beard that had grown over the years in that foreign place. Now, his clean-shaven face radiated an aura of tranquility and strength. His long, flowing white hair gave an elegant yet powerful impression, reflecting all the experiences and sufferings he had endured. His sharp gaze, now filled with wisdom and calmness, stared back from the mirror, as if challenging himself to keep moving forward. He felt as though there was a pa

Evan left Riley's room with a lighter heart, his steps carrying him toward the training grounds. As he entered the area, he was greeted by a scene vastly different from what he remembered. Intense training, the clash of weapons, and enthusiastic cheers filled the air. This was where the Ironfist family members trained hard, and Evan could sense the strong atmosphere of determination and dedication.He stepped to the edge of the field and observed the martial artists practicing under the guidance of an instructor. Zeke, the leader of the elite squad who had once gone to fetch Evan during the battle against Darius, was seen leading the training. Though Zeke appeared older and more authoritative than Evan remembered, his movements were still full of agility and confidence.Evan approached Zeke with a smile. "Zeke, it's good to see you again. I can see you all have made impressive progress."Zeke turned and smiled. "Evan, you're back at last! We were all so happy to hear you were safe and

In the safe zone of Arcadia City, the atmosphere was tense and filled with exhaustion after an important executive meeting. Ten key executives, each leading large groups within their organization, gathered in a luxurious conference room. Despite sitting in comfortable chairs, their expressions showed deep fatigue and anxiety.The forces they sent to the Level 6 Dimensional Gate numbered 50, the largest deployment they had ever undertaken. However, only 15 returned, many of them severely injured. The decision to attack and seize control of the Level 6 Dimensional Gate had left a significant impact, not only on the physical condition of their troops but also on their morale and reputation.The executives were well aware of the grim reality of the operation's outcome, but they chose to hide the truth. In front of the public and the entire world, they claimed that they had successfully conquered the Level 6 Dimensional Gate. They framed this victory as a great achievement that demonstrate

The Ironfist family remained steadfast in their mission, undeterred by the plans announced by Blue Sky. To them, rankings were just numbers, and they refused to be measured by a system created by someone they didn’t trust. Their focus was on preparing for a far more important mission: entering the level 5 dimensional gate, one of the greatest challenges the family had ever faced. After a week of intense training and preparation, the long-awaited day finally arrived.At the Ironfist family’s headquarters, the atmosphere was thick with tension and anticipation. All the family members and practitioners gathered in the main courtyard, eyes fixed on the dimensional gate that stood tall, emanating an aura of mystery and menace. The gate seemed to challenge anyone daring enough to enter.Evan stood at the front, his posture firm and his expression calm. Inside, he felt a mix of emotions—excitement, caution, and a burning desire to face this challenge. Though he had faced life-and-death situa

The first Ice Golem attacked, swinging its massive arm with enough force to shatter a mountain. Yet Evan calmly dodged, his movements so fast that he seemed like a shadow, impossible to grasp. Every blow from the golem missed, crashing into the ground and shattering the surrounding ice, but Evan remained untouched.With astonishing speed, Evan leaped into the air, his sword—Blade of Eternity—glowing with a cold blue light. With a single slash, he struck the Ice Golem's arm, shattering it into tiny fragments. The golem roared in pain, its voice reverberating through the air. But Evan didn't stop there; he continued his assault with incredible speed and precision, striking at the weak points of each golem that approached.The battle was an epic spectacle, a dance between brutal strength and deadly precision. Evan moved with almost inhuman grace, evading every golem's attack and retaliating with devastating strikes. When two golems tried to attack him simultaneously, Evan spun swiftly, s
