A girl ties her hair in a feminine room, the evening sun shines into her room which is dominated by white and yellow, there are also other bright colors but not as much as yellow of course.The girl looked at her reflection in the oval-shaped mirror, she smoothed her bangs again and examined them carefully."Am I overdoing it? Isn't this just a normal dinner? But what am I wearing now? Gosh, Caroline, wake up! Austin only thinks of you as his best friend, nothing more. I think I should change my clothes..."Last night Austin suddenly called her and asked about her free time. Caroline, who had been busy with various school assignments as well as competitions held at her school, had not had time to contact Austin for the past few days. But luckily she had some free time this afternoon, and Austin invited her to dinner at a fancy restaurant in Winston.This wasn't her first dinner with Austin, but after that incident-when she pretended to be his girlfriend-it's safe to say she was beginn
Caroline often saw Austin hanging out with the opposite sex, but this was the first time she felt threatened. Either her feelings were getting stronger or the girl who was talking to Austin now had the same feelings as her.Generally, humans only have five senses, but it's different with women. They have a sixth sense called the sense of sensitivity. Caroline could sense a real threat as soon as the girl named Bianca was chatting casually with Austin.Bianca, who was organizing a family dinner at the restaurant, accidentally met Austin. A coincidence that makes her happy, but the joy doesn't last long once she sees another girl sitting at the same table as Austin."By the way, it looks like you're dating another girl, Austin..." Bianca asked. The tone the girl used sounded normal, but somehow Austin got goosebumps when he heard it.But the young man didn't think much of it, perhaps the temperature of the air conditioner in the room was a little lower and made him cold."This is my bes
"Wait a minute, so you're saying that we should always take care of the people on this list? There are more than a dozen people and we have to look after all of them for a long time? Is our new boss trying to torture us or something? Even if we all have super abilities, that doesn't mean we don't need a break..." One of the members of the Night Squad protested unhappily as the chairman handed out a flyer of the new tasks they had to undertake.Finley did not say anything, that was because what Vin said was true. Their new boss, who was none other than Austin, asked all the members of the Night Squad to continue guarding everyone he wanted to protect, and of course there were at least nearly 20 people in it.Vin as well as the other members of the Night Squad were used to going on information gathering missions that had nothing to do with guarding someone, and to be honest digging up information was much easier and more practical than having to guard someone. That's because they have t
Austin sat silently as he stared at the two adults in front of him. He looked at both of them back and forth, he wondered why these two adults asked him to come to them instead of them having to come to him.But the kind and not arrogant Austin tried to understand the reason for the two of them. There is always a reason for every action, that's what Austin has always believed until now."What's wrong? Why did you guys ask me to come here?" asked Austin directly, he was curious why Finley and Luna asked him to stop by the restaurant close to his school."Boss, last night we all discussed it and we agreed to keep everyone on the list that boss gave me yesterday..." Finley explained.Austin frowned slightly, he hoped he had heard wrong or something, so he re-confirmed, "wait, negotiated it? Am I the only one here who's confused or did I hear something wrong? I'm the boss, and you're just my subordinates. You should follow my orders, ah~ is there anyone who doesn't want to follow my order
Austin brought the three small children to the center of the Social Center, exactly where Adam and Halley and most children their age were. The three children were still reluctant to smile, but no longer avoiding Austin as before, they became much more relaxed when close to Austin.Austin who saw the development smiled happily. The three little kids might still not be able to fully accept his existence, but it was definitely much better than no progress at all. Austin was also not someone who was good at getting close to children, that was also the reason why he often used the 'power' of uamh instead of having to familiarize himself with the children directly.Who in the world doesn't like money? Even stupid people love money, it's because they know the use of money very well. There is nothing more useful in this world than money.It didn't take long for Austin and the three little kids to arrive at the social center. There were now at least nearly thirty people living in the mansion
Just as a company consists of a CEO and executives, so does the Justice Founders organization.There is a founder of the organization whose face is still a mystery. It is said that ordinary people see his face more often than those who are members of the Justice Founder organization.As well as the people who are his direct subordinates, they are called the Nine Heavens group.The Nine Heavens, as the name suggests was grand and majestic, all the core members who belonged to the Nine Heavens were the most powerful among the hundreds of members of the Justice Founders.Michael had met several members of the Nine Heavens, one of whom was a married couple nicknamed the Harmony of Heaven.The reason was simple, it was because they both possessed high alignment in combat and all the people they had fought before had never defeated them.Everyone from the Nine Heavens agreed that the Harmony of Heaven was extremely difficult to defeat. They might not be first in the power rankings, but in a
Previously, Austin only focused on improving his stats, and even then he relied on the system to give him a lot of point boosts in each of his stats.That was the reason why Austin's fighting skills were so poor, saying that the gangster members were much more skilled than him was not an exaggeration at all, because that was the fact.The reason why Austin could defeat all his enemies with ease was simply because his strength stats were so high. In terms of strength alone, Austin believes no one else can match him.But a person will never be satisfied with their achievements, no matter how high they are, that person will want more things after getting what they want. Likewise with Austin, he may be too strong to the point of absurdity, but Austin wants to try to defeat his opponent without using his abilities.He might be able to defeat someone with his raw ability, but it's different if he has to fight with a beast whose defenses and instincts are basically created to hunt and prey o
"Hoamh..." A man yawned boredly, he was leaning on the roof of a large house while staring at a group of children who continued to play in the yard."Boring... I'd better get some sleep..." the man was none other than Vin, one of the members of the Night Squad in charge of looking after the children in the social center. His job could be categorized as the easiest, but that was also why he quickly became bored, because there was nothing he could do but watch the children.Vin closed his eyes, about to take a short nap. Just when he thought he was about to enter dreamland, he faintly heard the sound of footsteps from the bushes surrounding the mansion's perimeter. As one of the members of the Night Squad, his five senses could not be confused with ordinary humans. He could hear someone's footsteps even if that person was a hundred meters away from him.Vin immediately opened his eyes, he cast his gaze towards the bushes, and as he expected, it seemed that an uninvited guest had come to
There were only two young men in the small bookstore. Felix ignored Austin's presence, but on the other hand Austin kept watching Felix.Somehow he felt a strange fluctuation as soon as he saw the man named Felix. He couldn't explain it well, but he knew it was a kind of scientific attraction as Heaven and Earth complemented each other even though they would never merge.Of course Austin could tell clearly that what he was feeling now wasn't any kind of romantic attraction, he wasn't that stupid to interpret it."This seems to be getting more complicated..." Austin muttered. He could have used his abilities and made the girl named Lily come out on her own, but the presence of other people in the room made him think twice.Austin sighed heavily, he looked back at the man named Felix for a moment and then sat down on one of the empty chairs positioned right next to the shop door.He picked up one of the random books and read it. He would think of another way he could meet Lily today or
There was nothing Austin was more worried about than those closest to him. Those who dared to interfere with his people more than deserved the most gruesome death they could receive.Although there were many people who took refuge under Austin's banner, the man showed no strong favoritism at all and gave them a life worthy of their fond memories.Moreover, those who accepted Austin's help were more than willing to follow the young man forever. For them, there was nothing better than following Austin all their lives.But now one of the homeless people whose life Austin saved is likely to be affected by the 'suicide disaster' that is engulfing Winston.Austin might not be too concerned about the safety of other people's lives, but it's a different story when it's his own. He never claimed to be a saint, nor did he ever think of himself as a savior, he just tried to give those people what they deserved when they couldn't get it, happiness.Luna, Finley, Audrey, Vin and Zod gathered in th
Hia eyes snapped open as he felt something like ice water pouring over him. He didn't realize what was happening and looked around him with a questioning gaze.He was in a dark room that gave off an eerie impression, moreover he just realized that he was sitting with both his hands and feet bound in thick chains. But the shock didn't last long as he remembered that he was a Magician. He should be able to break these chains easily.Unfortunately he could not sense the presence of magic here, in short he could not use his magic here which made his resistance futile."Trying to run?" a heavy voice sounded, the small man focused his gaze towards the source of the voice and found a large man with long hair and a thick beard and mustache covering his facial features.The man was more accurately described as a monstrous monster than a human. This was the first time he had seen anyone with an appearance and demeanor as terrifying as the man in front of him."W-who are you? Where am I?"The bi
Vin is naturally an arrogant person, often looking down on those he perceives as his prey.He was not a virtuous or benevolent person like the heroic heroes in some heroic novels.He himself realized that he was cruel and merciless, but all that kind of cruelty was extinguished once he faced Austin. As arrogant as he was and even if his arrogance was as vast as the ocean and as high as the sky, it was nothing in front of Austin Barnett.He could still be a bit arbitrary in front of Luna and Finley, but it was a different matter when he faced Austin Barnett. All he could do was bow his head respectfully, because in his heart, in the hearts of all the members of the Night Squad, Austin was a true ruler with tremendous power in his hands.There were only a few moments where the Night Squad could see Austin's power, and that was less than ten times. Austin rarely used his personal power, but once he got serious, even the Gods themselves couldn't stop him.Vin looked at the small man who w
Finley exhaled slowly, then sheathed his pair of longswords again. His eyes gazed at the natural geography in front of him that had been destroyed by his battle with the woman in the red dress earlier.There was something weighing on his heart, but Finley tried not to think too much about it. This was something he was used to after the Night Squad came under Austin Barnett's banner. There were no premeditated acts of murder or anything like that, just brutal massacres that were extremely destructive.If before the Night Squad was a group of owls working in the dark, once the Night Squad became Austin Barnett's right-hand man, they became a group of eagles that openly dominated every territory. Challenging anyone who dared to disturb them, killing prey without a second thought.The man turned around, leaving the scene of the fight with his staggering steps.Meanwhile, in the woods on the other side of Winston, Vin circled in the middle of a large field. The black shadow had dragged him
A man was running in the darkness as if he was chasing something. His gaze was fixed on a black shadow that was darting so fast, he almost couldn't catch up with it if his boss didn't give him a magical equipment that could increase his speed.The man running with the magical shoes was none other than Vin. He was investigating Winston's suicide, but in the middle of the investigation he found something that made him curious."Damn it, why is it so fast!" Vin cursed, he had run as fast as he could but his distance from the black shadow was still the same, even a little further.The uneven terrain of the forest and the many shady trees around it hampered Vin's movements. Trying to catch up from the sky was definitely not a good option, as the black shadow was too opaque for it to easily blend into the darkness of the night.Letting his guard down, Vin would instantly lose his trail.As the black shadow's movements quickened, Vin widened his eyes in disbelief. Previously he believed that
Just as there is always a shadow behind the light, so is Winston's current condition.One should not describe the evil and good sides easily. They should dive to the bottom and search deeper into what evil really is and what good really is.A mass murderer today would be considered a true ditactor, but a massacre during a war in the past would be considered something that they had to do in order to create a prosperous kingdom or empire.Each action has its own time.Behind the catastrophic 'suicides' that are happening in Winston, there are some groups of people who are taking advantage of the gruesome cases spread throughout the city by creating more chaos in the city.Some wreak havoc openly, while others wreak havoc in the dark. While the residents are busy protecting themselves from factors that could affect their mental health, the criminals in the darkness launch their actions.Inside a suite in a five-star hotel in the city center, a middle-aged man sits on the room's sofa over
No one knows better than him that power is everything. The stronger you are, the more power you can wield. With absolute power in his hands, everything would bow beneath his feet, kowtowing and licking the toes of his shoes masterfully.Austin didn't want great power in his hands at first, instead, he wanted to live a simple life without any burden on his shoulders with his parents and everyone he cared about. But the more he knew that in order to realize such peace, he needed great power in his hands.Now that he is the guardian of Earth, there are some mysterious and ancient facts that have only become known after he took this position. Facts that only he knows and may also be known by other ancient existences, but Austin does not know whether those ancient existences are still alive today or have been buried deep in the Earth's core.However, the position of Earth's guardian cannot be occupied by just anyone, only those who can defeat the three mythical creatures of the ocean are w
The extremely rare occurrence of Dimensional Energy made Austin travel the world more vigorously to visit some untouched locations and ascertain if there were any other visible Dimensional Energy or traces that might have been left by other beings.However, those who can control Dimensional Energy are not simple characters, they could be invincible existences like the three mythical beasts guarding the Earth or even existences equivalent to Gods.Although the little black centipede the other day looked very vulnerable as if it could easily die if stepped on at any time, the fact that it was able to enter a small dimensional gate was proof that it was able to navigate the chaotic currents of time and go to other worlds in this vast universe.Now Austin was in the interior of a fairly dense forest. It was far away from the city and there were only a few villages in the forest that maintained a traditional lifestyle amidst the rampant modern lifestyle.Austin stroked his chin as he looke
