****Although this was only the second time Alex was meeting the incredibly renowned retired Divine General Rex Magnus, it felt as though they'd always known each other with the level of familiarity shared between them.It might be because they regularly communicate by phone these days or due to the aura surrounding the Divine General that doesn't repel anyone.When all the present soldiers who were still standing at attention witnessed this, they became filled with admiration, well… not in a negative way, but the envy type.The only person Alex felt extremely uncomfortable around was his aunty, The Divine General's wife whose pregnancy had already become very advanced, well… it wasn't like the pregnancy concealed her remarkably beautiful self.Perhaps, it might be because of her pregnancy or because she was initially quite emotional.Her eyes were already crimson red by the time they came in, evidence that she had been crying since she heard the news.But now, her face was filled to t
***** Some moments ago. After dozing for a few hours, Dami stirred awake, feeling disoriented for a moment before the recollection of the intense conflict she had engaged in resurfaced in her mind. Promptly, she was engulfed to the brim with embarrassment and immense delight that she couldn't conceal. For some inexplicable reasons, she suddenly felt thankful to the young man who had triggered what transpired to happen. After a few moments of grinning foolishly to herself, Dami eventually realized that she was presently the sole occupant of the spacious bedroom. She then rose, steeling herself for the considerable discomfort that was soon going to infiltrate her soul. However, in the following instant, she recognized that not even the slightest discomfort could be sensed; instead, she felt remarkably invigorated. 'It must be his influence.' Grinning foolishly to herself, Dami stretched leisurely, but in the subsequent moment, she felt an intense chill crawl over her skin, startl
***** After several hours of intense conversation, with only the two of them privy to the details of their discussion, Alex and his Godfather finally left the room as it was time for his Godfather and Aunty to depart, even though his aunt seemed reluctant to leave. To the surprise of both Alex and his Godfather, during those few hours of discussion, Dami and Fiona had managed to connect and bond as if they were long-lost sisters. This unexpected connection was the primary reason for Fiona's reluctance to leave. "I will probably give birth to my child soon. Make sure to come over with my nephew, and you should invite your sister along. I can't wait to meet her." "Hun?! Sister?!" Alex became puzzled as he watched the two women exchange pleasantries while walking out of the villa, seemingly oblivious to Alex and his Godfather. Observing this, Alex noticed his Godfather massaging his temple as if he had a headache. When his Godfather saw Alex's gaze, he gave him a thumbs-up and then
***** The following morning, Alex was pleasantly surprised when he realized that Dami had arrived as usual and carried out all her customary tasks.Initially, he had assumed she might feel awkward due to the sudden shift in their relationship after the intense battle they had in his bedroom the previous day, especially the one they had before he escorted her home.'Well… this outcome seems more favorable.'That was Alex's thought before he regained his composure. He then approached Dami from behind while she focused on something simmering in the pot, radiating enthusiasm.He gently embraced her graceful figure, which was impossible to conceal even in her glossy black pants and white shirt. Alex whispered softly into her ear, "Good morning."Dami was taken aback at first because of the unexpected hug. However, within moments, a radiant smile adorned her face, and she continued her task without displaying any discomfort.“Good morning, master.”Alex blinked in astonishment.“Master?!
*****"Grand Elder, what are you going to do now?"Inside a lavishly decorated cave filled with potent ki that permeated the air, several elderly and middle-aged individuals gazed at an old man with reluctant expressions on their faces.The person they were observing was the grand elder of Valley of Joy whose grandson had been divided into several potions by Alex.Upon hearing the question he was asked, the old man, who appeared like a living corpse, suddenly lifted an eye. In the next second, his gaze was filled to the brim with a murderous intent that sent shivers down the spines of those standing before him."Even if all the clans and schools ranked above us, including all of you, unite to persuade me to abandon revenge, I will fight until the end. I'll send that wretch to the underworld after subjecting him to the most excruciating torture imaginable in this world."Despite his calm and casual tone, his words sent a shudder through everyone present, leading them to exchange glance
*****Several moments earlier, after Dami and Alex entered the classroom, the room fell into complete silence for several seconds before suddenly, loud gasps began to reverberate, and everyone, both boys and girls, started to stare at Dami with astonishment, disbelief, and jealousy, especially the ladies. They couldn't fathom how their gender could be so effortlessly stunning in their lifetimes. The girls instantly felt disheartened and lost all confidence in their own beauty.As for the boys, after savoring their amazement for a while, they began to compare Dami to the school's top beauties. It soon became evident that not even the number one on the list, their class president whom they knew in the past, could hold a candle to her beauty. Realizing this, all the boys grew even more astounded, and after some time, they became excited, their breath quickening."Now, I can finally accept the fact that that scoundrel has won over the class president.""This is fantastic! I now have a b
***** Apart from being the top school's belle, hailing from a prominent family, being extremely intelligent, and being one of the few female class presidents in the school, the reason Jewel was renowned was her constant aloofness and composed demeanor. It would be an understatement to say that most people feared her due to the icy aura she had cultivated that repelled others.So, observing Jewel now, with a fierce expression on her impeccably beautiful face, no one dared to speak a word. Had it been a fellow student or even a lecturer who had snapped at them just now, they would have undoubtedly been incensed and acted contrary to the commanding voice, but perhaps because of the influence Jewel had wielded in the past, everyone involuntarily swallowed hard and regarded her with trepidation, regardless of their background.As for Alex, who had been initially infuriated and was about to act, his face was now adorned with a wide grin, and an air of pride had enveloped him. ‘That's
Eventually, the crowd reached a consensus that they would approach a highly popular gang to handle Alex on their behalf so that he would understand that they weren't individuals he should challenge and compete with.Concluded with that, the boys in the crowd started discussing how they should fairly vie for Jewel's attention and affection once Alex was removed from the equation and Jewel became aware of the type of person they would paint him.As for the ladies present, initially, they were brimming with envy and anger when they saw how the guys, including their crushes and boyfriends, were eager to win Jewel's favor. However, upon realizing how exceptionally beautiful Jewel was, it was as if they had lost something significant, and their expressions turned bitter.After a while, they exchanged glances and gestured to one another to move away from the boys. There, they held their own meeting, and some of the ladies succeeded in sowing the seeds of resentment in the hearts of the o
