The Harmons couldn't help but shudder when Tyler's gaze swept over them. An uncontrollable fear seemed to come over them. Though he spoke calmly without any emotions, his gaze alone was enough to instill fear in them. For a moment, they felt like they were all prey to a monstrous beast.

"Do not be mistaken, Tyler. She doesn't mean that." As Hector said that, he shot Nataha a glare. "Stop messing around. Go back to your room right this instant!"

"Natasha, this marriage alliance is an arrangement between two families! This isn't child's play! You mustn't act recklessly!" Frightened, Jessica stepped forward to warn Natasha. It was one thing for her to speak impulsively in front of Jayla. But now that Tyler was here, things would get out of hand if she still insisted on saying such things.

"I'm not messing around, nor am I acting recklessly." Natasha stood her ground. "I know you're an exceptional person, Tyler, but matters of the heart cannot be forced. Nothing good will come of this.

    "Natasha Harmon, you are shameless! Absolutely vile!" Jayla was so angry she slammed her hands on the table and jumped up from her seat. With her brother's status and prestige, he was never going to marry a woman who had slept with someone else."Are you trying to provoke me?" Tyler's brow knitted together ever so slightly. A brief second later, he regained his composure and put on a facade of indifference. "I do not mind that you've lost your virginity.""What?" Once again, everyone was shocked by what they heard, especially the Grants. It was like they did not even know Tyler anymore."You do not mind that I'm no longer a virgin? Well, what if I told you that I'm with child?" Natasha tossed him another shocker. "Truth be told, I'm pregnant. I'm carrying Dustin's child!"The moment she said that, a commotion came over the room."Oh, you wretched child! How terrible!""Oh, Natasha! You've brought disgrace upon the entire Harmon family!""How can you agree to a marriage alliance

    "More aggressive means?" Hector and the rest of the Harmons were taken aback by Dustin's suggestion, and they all stared at him like he had gone out of his mind. He wanted to use more aggressive means against the Grants? Did he have a death wish?"Dustin, if you have a death wish, that's all on you. Please do not implicate us!" Jessica said sternly with a frown. From how she saw it, her daughter's rebellion and her publicly calling off the marriage were all because of Dustin, so she harbored some form of resentment toward him."Tyler Grant isn't an ordinary person. He has the smarts and the brawns, he's courageous and witty, and most importantly, he's got military ranks. It would be arduous to make him back off." Hector shook his head."Every man has his weaknesses. As long as I grab hold of his weakness, I'll be able to turn the tables. We've got 10 days left. I'll make sure that I smoothen everything out nicely," Dustin promised with certainty."Act within your means, boy. Don't

    Tyler leaned back into the seat. Even as he took a rest with his eyes closed, he exuded an air of danger. "Tyler! That wretched girl Natasha is really too much! We need to bring her into line!" Jayla sat beside Tyler, still indignant over Natasha's words. Her brother was such a remarkable person who was outstanding in every aspect. Natasha should have counted her blessings and thanked every deity she knew that he even wanted to marry her! But not only did she not appreciate him, she dared to call off the marriage alliance in front of such a crowd. This was humiliation through and through!"Say something, Tyler! That bitch cheated on you! Are you really not pissed off by that?" Jayla was even more disgruntled by Tyler's silence. His fiancée had cheated on him with another man and even got herself pregnant! This was something that would never sit well with any man!"There's no point getting all worked up," Tyler said with indifference. "I am not marrying Natasha because I like her. I

    Over at Spices Diner, Florence sat in a booth and took in the sight around her, occasionally commenting on what she saw. "Look, Dahlia. Things are so different here in Millsburg. Every other diner here looks so posh! I've decided! I'll stay here in Millsburg for good! This is such a huge and advanced city! Everything's so convenient here, and it's way better than stuffy old Swinton!"There was nothing much Dahlia could do but listen helplessly. She had planned on coming to Millsburg to assume her position alone, but Florence and James insisted on tagging along. They claimed that they didn't want her coming to Millsburg alone with no one to rely on and that they'd be more at ease knowing that they'd be able to help her and take care of her. "Mom, does Aunt Victoria live nearby?" James suddenly asked out of nowhere."She does! And I've invited her to join us for lunch. She should be here by now." Florence nodded.As they spoke, a group of three came in through the door, led by a gla

    "I guess you can say that I have quite an influence here in Millsburg, so if any of you ever run into any problems here, you can come to me," Terrence said as he handed out his name card. As he spoke, he shot Dahlia one too many glances. A hint of lust flashed in his eyes. Dahlia was, after all, a bombshell. Not only did she have a perfect figure, but her face was also exquisite. She was unlike any other woman he'd seen before and definitely in a much different league compared to Julie."Very impressive, Mr. Stone! Here, take a seat, everyone." As Florence gestured for them to take their seats, she called out to the waitstaff, "Excuse me, we're ready for our meal now!""Hang on," Dahlia piped up. "We're missing one person.""Oh? Who else are we expecting?" Florence looked around them, puzzled.Just as Dahlia was about to speak, Dustin gracefully made his way in through the doors. "Over here!" Dahlia stood up and beckoned for Dustin to join them. Her company turned around to see who

    "My man, this is a pretty decent salary. You won't get a better offer anywhere else! If you do a good job, I might even give you a bonus!" Terrence jibed."You're lucky that Terrence is offering you this position as his chauffeur, Dustin. You'll regret it if you pass on this opportunity!" Julie said proudly."That's right! Terrence is the manager of Brooks Corporation, and he has a bright future ahead. You'll get a lot of extra perks working for him. What's there to not like about it?" Victoria echoed."Is Brooks Corporation that big of a deal?" Dustin still wasn't convinced."You don't know Brooks Corporation? It's a huge enterprise worth over hundreds of billions! You'll live a life of luxury if you're even the least bit affiliated with it!" Victoria scorned. He truly was a country bumpkin who knew nothing."I'm sorry, I've never heard of it before." Dustin shook his head yet again. He didn't know much about the business sector in Millsburg."Alright, so you've never heard of B

    "So what? What can you do to me?" Terrence taunted, unaware of the impending trouble he had brought upon himself."I'm Roderick Brooks, and you work for me. What do you think I can do to you?" Roderick asked coldly."Still keeping up the act, I see. Do you think I'd really buy this crap you're spouting?" Terrence snorted."Terrence Stone, I'm officially informing you that you have been fired by Brooks Corporation, effective today. You need not come to work tomorrow." Roderick wasted no time in making the decision."Hahaha! You're firing me? You're something else, aren't you!" Terrence guffawed. "Truth be told, I have a powerful person backing me up in Brooks Corporation. Even Roderick Brooks is in no position to fire me, much less an impostor like you!""Is that so? Well, would you be so kind as to enlighten me who the person backing you up might be?" Roderick asked sternly. If someone like this was the manager, it was high time Brooks Corporation had a restructuring."You have n

    "That's strange. Why are they headed our way? They look like they're up to no good. They're not here to give us trouble, are they?" Florence fidgeted anxiously in her seat."They're here for me," Dustin piped up."You? Have you offended someone again?" Dahlia frowned. She noticed that Dustin ran into quite a lot of trouble these days."I wouldn't exactly say I offended him, per se. I simply beat him up to teach him a lesson on how to behave," Dustin said calmly."This is not Swinton. There are influential people all around. There are some people that we simply cannot afford to cross!" Dahlia whispered. Though she was now chairwoman of Cardinal Group, the handover had yet to be completed, so she had neither funds, connections, nor experience. At this stage of her life, what she needed to do was to make more connections, keep a low profile, and stay out of trouble."Don't you worry, Miss Dahlia. I'm here. I'll make sure that nobody kicks up a fuss here." Terrence shot her a confiden

    Dustin had boarded the plane back to Oakvale. His trip to Sacred Wrym Summit had been full of ups and downs. From the Combat Tournament to the invasion of the Hall of Gods, his journey had been perilous. Thankfully, the outcome was favorable. He had won the championship at the tournament, acquired three Dracan essences, and ultimately foiled the Hall of Gods' plan. In every way, the mission had been nearly flawless.After bidding farewell to his newfound allies, Dustin joined Grace on the return flight. Four of the five Dracan essences had already been gathered, leaving only one remaining. According to Grace, the last essence had been located, and the person holding it was in Oakvale. Though their identity was still unknown, she suspected it was most likely one of the three princes.With the position of heir to the throne still uncertain, the three princes were all eager to secure their power. Whoever obtained the Dracan essence would be blessed with fortune and have a higher c

    The chaos of the night quickly settled.By morning, as the first light of dawn broke across the horizon, Sacred Wrym Summit had regained its usual tranquility. Yet, the bloodstains across the ground and the wreckage of buildings stood as grim reminders of the previous night's violence.The military forces summoned by Grace had already taken the Hall of Gods' prisoners into custody.Rumors spread like wildfire, fueling gossip throughout the martial world as all the major guilds watched with keen interest. After all, very few in history had ever dared to challenge Sacred Wrym Summit, and a bold invasion aimed at destroying it was nothing short of unprecedented.The outcome was clear to all who bore witness. After many years, the world had come to recognize the true terror of Arion. He was no mere mortal—he was almost a godlike figure.…Inside the Hall of Gods' headquarters in Streuqua, the core members were gathered, seated in two rows on either side of the grand hall.On the thr

    After dealing with the Hall of Gods' elite fighters, Arion disappeared in a blur. When he reappeared, he was hovering above the forbidden ground of Sacred Wrym Summit.The scene at the entrance to the forbidden ground was one of utter carnage. Bodies lay strewn across the ground, and rivers of blood flowed freely. All members of the Hall of Gods, including Hank, lay motionless on the ground.Dustin and Willard, both covered in blood and exuding killing intent, had fought fiercely. After a long, grueling fight, they succeeded in defending the forbidden ground of Sacred Wrym Summit. They had thwarted the Hall of Gods' plan to destroy the Dracan force.At that instant, Dustin seemed to sense something and suddenly looked up. Through the mist and darkness, he pinpointed Arion's figure hovering above. Arion smiled faintly and nodded at Dustin before disappearing again.Crossing several mountains in mere seconds, Arion arrived above the Sacred Wrym Summit's grand hall. Below, the discipl

    When the dust finally settled, Arion was the only one left standing.Bailey, Willem, Anthony, Batuul, the three elite assassins from Eskus, and several gods from the Hall of Gods were either dead or gravely injured.Willem's body had been blasted into countless pieces. Each fragment wriggled on the ground as it struggled to piece together. Batuul fared even worse. He was utterly obliterated, leaving no trace behind, not even ashes. On the contrary, Bailey and the three Eskus assassins had both their arms severed and were gravely wounded. Though Anthony's limbs were still intact, his crushed internal organs left him coughing up blood. The backlash from the demonic blade had also taken a devastating toll on his body. He now appeared decades older, his face gaunt and hollow, his hair gray. His frail frame made him look like a man standing at death's door."H-How is this possible? No… this can't be happening!" Bailey's expression was a mixture of shock and disbelief as he stared a

    Arion's sudden appearance caught everyone off guard. They stared, wide-eyed and slack-jawed. What was going on? Wasn't Arion already dead? How could he be standing there in front of them? Could it be a ghost?They exchanged baffled looks, and their faces were filled with disbelief. They couldn't make sense of it. How could Arion possibly be alive? It was beyond their comprehension."You… you're not dead?" No one was more shocked than Willem. After all his effort, he had finally found the chance to bite into Arion's neck and drain every drop of his blood.He was certain Arion had died—there was no way he could have survived. But if Arion was dead, who was this person standing before them?"Everyone, calm down!" Bailey spoke up. "Arion's body is still over there. This person must be an imposter."At his words, everyone turned to look at the corpse lying nearby.Bailey was right. The body was still there, and there was no way Arion could still be alive. So, the person in front o

    As the Snow Maiden attacked, Batuul's illusory Elephantine stirred into action. With a mighty roar, it charged forward and slammed into Arion. Its tusks, sharp as spears, aimed directly at his chest.Caught in the swirling snow, Arion couldn't avoid the attack and quickly invoked the Glow Incantation to shield himself. The tusks collided with the barrier in a deafening crash. The impact sent Arion flying, and the golden light surrounding him shattered like glass. Clearly, the illusory Elephantine's strength had far exceeded the Glow Incantation's limits.As Arion was tossed into the air, the three-headed, six-armed Chimera Wrath seized its moment. With six different weapons in hand, it launched a relentless assault.Arion swung his sword to block but was driven further back with each blow. With no solid footing in midair, his agility was useless against the onslaught.After several exchanges, one of the Chimera's weapons struck Arion squarely in the chest, sending him crashing to

    After a prolonged battle, Anthony and the others finally realized the gravity of the situation.Arion wasn't just a sword master but also had unpredictable agility. No matter how they attacked, they couldn't even land a single hit. On top of that, his sword was a constant threat.If this deadlock continued, the situation would only worsen. So, when Bailey spoke, they knew it was time for decisive action, and there was no turning back. It was either kill or be killed.At that moment, Anthony, who had been holding back, finally decided to use his ultimate technique. He bit his finger and smeared the blood across his blade. His lips moved quickly as if whispering an incantation."Snow Maiden, arise!" As soon as the words left his mouth, he swung his sword. A white figure shot out and hovered in the air. It was a woman with fair skin and mesmerizing beauty. Her long hair cascaded like a waterfall, her dress was as white as snow, and her eyes had a sinister gleam.The moment she appe

    "How many tricks does this old geezer have?"The impact of the divine talisman explosion left everyone both shocked and enraged. No one had expected that Arion would still manage to unleash such a powerful supreme divine power even after the Glow Incantation was broken and the lightning strikes failed to cause any harm.The impact of the thousands of divine talismans exploding at once was terrifying. Only the strongest fighters—Willem, Bailey, and Batuul—could withstand it. The rest of the group was severely injured. At that moment, they finally realized the terrifying strength of Dragonmarsh's strongest man."Impressive," Willem said, landing smoothly after being thrown back. His withered skin was now covered in cracks, and blood oozed from it.Most of the shockwave from the explosion had hit him directly. Despite his impressive defense, he still took some damage. However, these injuries were nothing to him. His wounds had already healed within a few seconds, as if nothing had hap

    Willem's wings, black as night with a metallic sheen, erupted from his back. Fully extended, they stretched over 30 feet. With a gentle flap, a storm of wind and eerie howls swept through the air. The sheer force was intimidating to behold.His appearance had also undergone a drastic transformation. Willem's once-handsome face was now gaunt, his skin wrinkled, and his cheekbones jutted out. Fangs protruded from his mouth, and two sharp horns sprouted from his head. He had grown taller, but his body was unnaturally thin, with his ribs and sternum visible beneath his skin. From a distance, he looked like a towering, monstrous skeleton. It was an unsettling sight that sent a chill down anyone's spine.This was Willem's ultimate form. After the transformation, his speed, strength, defense, and reflexes were greatly enhanced. His thirst for blood grew even more intense, turning him into a bloodthirsty demon.The gods, who had expressed dissatisfaction moments ago, now stood paralyzed
