The day of the gala arrived.

The grand ballroom glittered with chandeliers, and the most influential people in the city gathered, dressed in their finest. This year’s gala was the most important event of the season, all because the supreme general, Mr. Manchester, was expected to attend in person. Invitations were limited to the most influential elites, and rumors swirled about who would catch the general’s attention tonight.

The Odia family arrived in style, radiating confidence. Monica held her head high, smiling proudly as she whispered to Theresa. “When Rhea announces her relationship with the supreme general, no one will dare disrespect this family again.” They were only able to get an invitation because, rumors had it that Rhea is the mistress of Mr. Manchester.

Rhea smirked. “Just wait until they see us together.”

A special chair had been reserved at the front for Mr. Manchester, and the room buzzed with anticipation. People whispered as the Odias mingled among the elite.

    Damian clenched his fist. “This isn’t the place for a nobody like you—especially in a borrowed suit.”Adam gave a short laugh. “Borrowed? Damian, you really think a man like me would need to borrow anything?” His voice was calm, but his words dripped with scorn. “You still haven’t gotten over Zeus Hall, I see. How’s the arm?”Damian sneered. “You should’ve stayed in whatever gutter you crawled out of, Adam. Because the next time I get my hands on you—”“Spare me,” Adam interrupted, waving a dismissive hand. “You couldn’t stop me then, and you won’t stop me now.”Rhea crossed her arms, scoffing. “You’re delusional if you think you belong here. This is an event for people of importance. Not scum like you.” She smiled smugly. “When the general arrives, he’ll have you thrown out—or worse.”Adam’s grin widened. “Oh, the supreme general? I’d love to meet him.”Rhea raised her chin, eyes glittering with superiority. “You’re looking at the future wife of the supreme general. I’ll make sure he

    The first thug lunged at Adam, throwing a punch aimed at his jaw. Adam sidestepped smoothly, his movements fluid and precise. Before the thug could react, Adam slammed an open palm into his chest. The man gasped, his ribs cracking under the force, and he flew backward, crashing into a table.The crowd gasped.The other mercenaries exchanged glances, momentarily stunned. But they quickly recovered, spreading out to attack Adam from all sides.Two came at him simultaneously—one swinging a baton toward his ribs, the other aiming a kick at his head.Adam ducked under the baton, twisting his body to avoid the kick, and retaliated with a brutal uppercut that shattered the kicker’s jaw. The man crumpled to the floor, groaning in pain.Without missing a beat, Adam caught the baton mid-swing, yanked it out of the thug’s hand, and used it to deliver a vicious blow to his knee. The man screamed, collapsing as his leg gave out.“Three down,” Adam said, a smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth.

    The tension in the room was palpable, the Odia family stood their ground, defying Stacey’s command. The rest of the guests had already sunk to their knees, knowing better than to cross anyone with ties to the supreme general. But Mr. Luther, Monica, Rhea, and Robin glared at Stacey with stubborn pride, refusing to yield.“I will never kneel,” Monica hissed. “We know the general will clear this up when he arrives.”“And you’ll pay dearly for humiliating us,” Rhea added with a smug smirk. “Once he finds out how you’ve treated his future wife.”Adam leaned back slightly in his chair, a slow grin spreading across his face. "Is that so?” he whispered under his breath.Stacey’s expression darkened as her eyes burned with cold fury. “How dare you disobey a direct order?” she growled.“Punish them except for Racheal.” Adam gestured at Racheal, who was standing at a corner the whole time, she had been silent. Still traumatized by the incident with Adam.With a subtle motion of her hand, the he

    Monica collapsed to the floor in disbelief. “No… no, this can’t be happening…” she whispered, her voice hollow."This can't be true... you're bluffing." Robin said in disbelief."The supreme general is dating my daughter. He wouldn't hurt her family." Mr. Luther said confidently.Rhea stared at Stacey with wide, tear-filled eyes. “You’re lying... you have to be lying...” she whimpered.Adam chuckled quietly. “It’s over. You gambled everything—and lost.”Monica kept silent this time, remembering the toilet water incident from the last time she opened her mouth. But Theresa, always proud and defiant, couldn’t hold back.“You’re a coward, Adam,” she hissed. “You think this makes you powerful? You’ll never be more than a lowlife thug in a fancy suit!”Adam turned to her with a slow, predatory smile. “Ah, Theresa. I almost forgot. You’re the only one left who hasn’t been punished.”He gave Stacey a nod. “Have her killed.”Theresa’s heart sank, and for the first time, true fear flashed in h

    By nightfall, every door was shut to the Odias. They no longer had a single ally left in the city. When they woke the next morning, the government arrived with soldiers to enforce the eviction order. The Odias begged, pleaded, and cried, clinging desperately to the pillars of their mansion as the guards dragged them out like criminals. “This is our home! You can’t do this!” Luther bellowed, gripping the marble doorway as soldiers pried him loose. “We built this empire!” Monica wailed, clawing at the ground. “You can’t just throw us out!” Rhea was hysterical. “Wait! Wait! Call Mr. Manchester! He’ll fix this! He’ll vouch for me! I’m his mistress!” The guards ignored her. One soldier sneered, “Get out quietly, or we’ll drag you out.” As they were forcibly pulled from the mansion, the skies opened, and rain poured down, drenching the once-proud family in cold water. The city they once thrived had turned its back on them. They were nobodies now. Just as the guards were shoving the Od

    Adam relaxed in the backseat, the city lights of Almond faded behind him, reflecting off the windows of the sleek black car. Stacey, sitting in the driver’s seat, glanced at him through the rearview mirror.“Where to next, boss?” she asked, a sly grin tugging at the corner of her mouth.Adam leaned back, adjusting his cufflinks with practiced ease. His gaze was calm but sharp, like a predator already plotting his next move. “Storm City,” he said, his voice low and deliberate. “It’s time to pay Viper a visit.”Stacey arched an eyebrow. “The Dead Skulls base? Wouldn't that be dangerous, we need to call back up.” Stacey suggested. Although she knew Adam was more than capable, she can't underestimate the Dead skull’s potential, they were ruthless warriors.Adam’s lips curled into a faint smile. “Not until I get what I came for—the amulet. Viper’s held onto it long enough. And no need for backups, we can take them in ourselves.”Stacey’s fingers drummed lightly on the steering wheel. “You

    Adam and Stacey were led through the dimly lit, smoky interior of the bar, past tables cluttered with illegal goods and men eyeing them with suspicion. The air smelled of cheap alcohol, sweat, and gun oil—this was Viper’s territory, and everything about it reeked of danger.At the far end of the bar, a door opened into a private pool room, illuminated by low, neon-blue lights. Viper lounged in the shallow end of the pool, two beautiful women clinging to his arms, their bodies draped in skimpy swimsuits. His devilish grin widened the moment Adam entered.“Well, well… If it isn’t the supreme general himself,” Viper drawled, his voice slithering with malice. He waved a hand lazily, dismissing the two women, who slipped out of the pool with sultry looks and disappeared into the shadows. Viper leaned back on the pool’s edge, his tattooed chest glistening with water.Stacey stood close to Adam, her hand casually resting on the hilt of her blade, eyes scanning the room for threats. Adam, as

    Stacey moved like lightning beside him. Her blade flashed through the air, severing hands, slashing throats, and dodging bullets with deadly precision. She fought with the precision of an assassin—every movement calculated, every strike lethal.A mercenary lunged at her with a shotgun, but she was already in motion. She twisted low, slashing through his knees, and before he could scream, she drove her blade through his throat. Blood sprayed across the room, but Stacey remained calm, unflinching.---Adam, meanwhile, was just getting warmed up. A hulking brute rushed him with a spiked club, grinning savagely. Adam merely smirked, waiting until the last second. Then, with a flicker of movement too fast to track, Adam's palm shot out like a cannon.BOOM!The impact blasted the man off his feet, sending him crashing through several tables, splinters flying everywhere. He didn’t get back up.A second later, three men surrounded Adam, all armed with knives. They closed in, grinning—until Ad

    Everyone was instantly excited. Lord Chaosbreaker was a real legend. He was one of the most respectable Gods of War. His presence would naturally cause a commotion. The crowd swore in their mind that they had to get an invitation to the banquet no matter what After all, that was the greatest opportunity to flatter Lord Chaosbreaker. If they could get close to him, they would have a bright future ahead. Some of the people who were quick had already started flattering Tristan and giving him gifts. As the room buzzed with activity, Tristan turned his sharp gaze back to Adam. The smirk on his face transformed into a cold, calculated sneer. “Brat,” he said, his voice carrying an unmistakable threat. “I still have matters to attend to, but don’t think I’ve forgotten about you. Once the banquet is over, I’ll make sure to settle the score personally. You’ll regret crossing me.” Adam’s expression remained unchanged, his calm demeanor unshaken by Tristan’s ominous words. Instead, a faint

    Tristan strode confidently into the grand hall, flanked by the elite Storm City Defenders. His presence was magnetic, exuding authority that commanded immediate attention. Wherever he went, the crowd instinctively parted, their heads lowering in deference. The weight of his reputation hung heavy in the air, and the expressions on their faces were a mixture of fear and deep respect. “Mr. Tristan!” Gerald Armand, the host of the event, wasted no time. He hurriedly approached Tristan, his two children following close behind. Gerald’s demeanor was ingratiating, almost desperate, as he extended his hand in greeting. His smile was forced, his intent clear—to curry favor with one of the most influential figures in Storm City. After all, the man standing before him wasn’t just anyone. Tristan was one of Lord Chaosbreaker’s trusted lieutenants. Even at the height of their power, the Armand family wouldn’t have dared to cross someone from Lord Chaosbreaker’s circle. Doing so was tantamount t

    “What do you mean? Mr. Monday was just pulling my leg,” Samuel said with a confident grin, trying to reclaim the narrative.Adam didn’t flinch. “I’ve won. Get down on your knees now and call me Uncle,” he demanded straightforwardly.Samuel sneered. “As I’ve already explained, Mr. Monday was joking with me. I was never fired, so there was no reinstatement. By that logic, you’ve lost.”Eleanor chimed in with her usual disdain, “Mr. Samuel is absolutely correct. You’re just delusional. Do you really think you’re that powerful?”Adam shook his head slightly, disappointment flickering in his eyes. He couldn’t believe their ignorance. He had already proven his capabilities twice, yet they were quick to dismiss it as mere coincidence. He wondered if they were oblivious or simply too proud to admit defeat.Samuel stepped forward, his glare sharp and menacing. “Enough of this nonsense. I don’t have time for your childish games. After the event is over, you’re going to divorce Tessa immediately

Brian, however, showed no sign of remorse. He crossed his arms, glaring at Adam with disdain. “What are you going to do, cripple?” he sneered. Adam’s voice was calm, but the threat in it was unmistakable. “Touch my woman again, and you’ll regret it.” Brian scoffed, puffing out his chest. “You think I’m scared of you?
