“Violet, you’re not at the office?” Peyton asked over the phone as she exited the building.
“No, I’m out scouting locations and coordinating with contractors. Willy’s setting up for his environmental project, so I’m handling site contracts and construction. Did you finish your onboarding?”
“Yeah, I went up to your floor looking for you, but you weren’t there.”
“Looking for me? Please, Peyton, I think we both know you were hoping to run into someone else. I know where your thoughts are!”
“What? You know nothing! Bye!” Peyton snapped, quickly hanging up, her face heating with both excitement and anxiety.

“Alright, I’ll go home tonight and talk to my parents, then I’ll confirm with you. Is that okay?”“Willy, this can’t be discussed with anyone. For this month, you’ll need to stay at the Special Forces camp.” Giant reminded him.“Living there? Strict rules, huh?”“Of course, this is no joke! But we really hope you’ll agree to train them. Also, I’ve been curious: who taught you your skills?”Willy shot a grin at Rose. “Oh, Rose, don’t look at me like that! I’m taken, you know. Let’s eat!”The group laughed, clinking glasses and enjoying lunch together. They’d get back to business later.After lunch, Black Wolf went back to relay Willy’s response to their leader. With a nod, the leader approved. “Willy, as long as you’re not breaking any laws or compromising NVMD, your request shouldn’t be an issue.&rdq

Back in his office, Violet quickly approached Willy. “Did you… what happened to her?”“I told her to get lost. Want to see her? She’s probably not far, you can chase her down.”“Oh, please! Why would I want to see your ex?”“Violet, promise me this: don’t bring her up again. She’s my biggest regret, and you’re the only one I want in my life—always have been, and always will be.” Willy’s sudden sincerity caught Violet off guard.Logan, sensing the moment, shook his head and slipped out of the office.“Oh no! Logan saw that! How am I supposed to face him now?”“Easy—just look him in the eyes!” Willy laughed. “Now, Violet, come here; there’s something important we need to discuss.” He led her over to the couch, taking her hand.“Violet, the day after tomorrow, I need to leave for a month.

As the car continued down the road, the training grounds for regular soldiers came into view on both sides.“Willy, those are just the standard squads. The special ops teams are stationed further in,” Rose explained.“Oh, so for this training, how do you decide which soldiers join your teams? And how many are you planning to recruit?” Willy asked.“Good question. By the end of the training, we’ll each select the two most capable individuals from our 60-member squads, totaling ten recruits. Then, we’ll shuffle these ten into two-person teams, and each of us will handle one team’s assessment.”“What will their assessment involve?”“It’s pretty straightforward. We give them a mission, observe their skills, composure, marksmanship, and how they handle high-stress situations. If they pass, they’ll officially join the elite ranks. The new recruits will shado

“Willy, how much strength did you actually use?” Rose quietly asked with a smirk.“I barely used any strength. If I had, do you think Jaybird would still be standing? We’re teammates, after all; I couldn’t exactly go full force.”Rose clicked her tongue, exchanging a look with Giant and Jaybird as they all took in a new perspective on Willy.Hearing Willy’s words, Jaybird’s dark skin reddened with embarrassment. In front of the trainees, he felt like he’d lost big time.“Did everyone see the fight just now?” Black Wolf called out to the trainees.The group stayed silent, as the fight had happened so fast. They’d seen Jaybird make the first move, but then suddenly he was back in his original spot. Then both men just

The speed memory drill was tough. Many trainees pushed through, but some were ready to give up. Willy kept a close eye on everyone, ensuring they stayed focused.At dinner, Willy joined Rose, Big Mountain, and the others.“So, what’s on the training agenda today, Willy?” Rose asked, curious.“We started with resilience and memory work today. Both are foundational, but it seems I underestimated some of these guys,” Willy replied with a smirk. “Some of them already wanted to quit after just a morning run.”“Resilience, huh? I would’ve thought you’d start with physical conditioning,” Big Mountain said, intrigued.“That’s coming, but if they can’t overcome obstacles mentally, there’s no point in having physical strength,” Willy replied. “The group already got a taste of it; I had them run barefoot on the beach. By the third lap, some were already ready

The five trainees sprinted with all their might, each step fueled by the literal fire under their feet. Finally reaching the lake, they threw themselves into the water, extinguishing the flames that had started to creep up their pant legs and boots."Excellent!" Willy exclaimed as they emerged from the water, catching their breath. "Now, what was your previous best time for the hundred meters?""Reporting, sir," the first trainee responded. "My previous time was 11.7 seconds.""And just now, you ran it in 10.8. The others, too, shaved nearly a second off their records," Willy noted, reading the times aloud.Hearing Willy's new timing, Naomi couldn't hide her surprise. She’d just bested her personal record by a full second. The experience was intense, but the result was incredible.After Willy read out everyone's times, the trainees realized the truth: only when forced to their absolute limits could they achieve their true potential.

“Seriously?! You’re here to steal my techniques again?” Willy scowled in mock outrage.“Don’t be so stingy! Willy, where did you even get these training props?” Rose asked, her curiosity piqued.“Not telling! I’ll let you all stay in the dark until you crack from frustration!” Willy teased.“Damn, you’re so petty!” Rose retorted, rolling her eyes.“So, what’s your approach this time, Willy? Are you training them for combat?” Black Wolf asked, glancing at the computer screen where he could see real-time data and rankings.“Nope, this round is different. I plan to cut down the numbers significantly. If they’re unlucky, about half could be eliminated.”“Eliminate? What’s your plan for that?” Rose questioned, intrigued.“I have three rounds in mind for elimination. By the end of them, only two participants wi

Within just two minutes from the start, Willy saw participants quickly succeeding; some emerged victorious within seconds, carrying their subdued opponents out of the room. Shortly after, loud sounds of intense fighting echoed from inside the dorm, and another group exited a minute later, bringing out restrained competitors.Willy gave a slight nod of approval. "Well done. Subduing an opponent without injuring them requires true strength."Hearing Willy's praise, the four soldiers outside exchanged nods; receiving acknowledgment from the feared 'Demon King' was a significant badge of honor. It looked like their friends might owe them a meal—such was the spirit of elimination rounds. Soon, Josiah, Naomi, and others brought their opponents out just within the final seconds.When Rose saw that Naomi had defeated a male soldier, she was stunned."Excellent work, Number Eight!" Willy complimented."Thank you, sir!" Naomi replied, excited.I

After hearing Willy's words, Violet was a little puzzled. "Dear, Charles is only a little over a year old, what could you possibly teach him? He’s already very smart!""Heh, that's exactly why I want to start training him now. He's smart enough for it," Willy said with a smile. "Don't worry, just go prepare. I have other things to take care of."The moment Willy left the house, the system notified him that someone was watching his home from a distant high-rise building. Willy wasn't in a rush; he knew from Charles’s system that the person would make their move at night, so he still had plenty of time to take care of his business during the day.Upon arriving at the company, Willy opened his emails and casually skimmed through them. He suddenly noticed several messages from special accounts belo

“What are they emailing you about? Asking for peace?”“Part of it is for peace, but mostly they’re explaining. They say they were forced into this situation, but I don’t care. They’re all in the same boat. If they’re going to suffer, let them suffer together! When they teamed up against us years ago, why didn’t they admit they were forced into it? Now that we’ve turned the tables, they’re saying they were coerced. It’s ridiculous!”“So, dear, will you forgive them? What are you planning to do?”“Everything will go through the international court. There’s no forgiveness. I’ve never held a grudge against them; I just find their actions despicable! They thought that by targeting my companies in the EU, they could force me to back down. They really underestimated me!”“Ha, it’s like they’ve shot themselves in the foot.”&l

"What are we supposed to do now?" The Big Shot from Y country was somewhat surprised upon hearing F country speak."Since we can’t win and we can’t let things get worse, the EU needs help and resources from Willy's company, so we’ll have to apologize. That’s the only option I have.""I disagree! What is this? We were about to succeed, why give up now?""Y country, are you stupid? Can’t you see the facts? You think you were about to succeed? You’re about to destroy yourselves! Yesterday, the four major families and Willy blocked you from all your stock indices, investments, imports and exports, insurance, and pharmaceuticals. Didn’t you know? Right now, many people in your country need Willy Pharmaceuticals’ medications to survive! Didn’t you know that many of your people have paid deposits for Willy Manufacturing’s aircraft but haven’t received them? Your country’s people lost 80% of their s

"Alright, Mr. Morgan, I believe the global audience watching at home understands your point now. As a businessman, there are many things beyond your control. So, Mr. Morgan, how do you plan to handle the companies and employees you currently have in the EU?""Companies like Willy Environmental and Willy Pharmaceuticals are in a very critical situation right now. All the EU countries and regions have invalidated our legally valid documents and replaced them with other approval channels. The purpose is to prevent my companies from passing the review, resulting in business shutdowns. In a place with no integrity, no action, and no concern for the people, I’ve given a direct order to shut down all our companies. The local employees are to be dismissed immediately. There's no other way.""Mr. Morgan, are you considering compensation for your employees?""This reporter, as for compensation, I believe local employees should file lawsuits against their respective
447: We Can't Surrender So Easily
The situation had escalated quickly. Once the live broadcast was over, Willy’s defiant stance had sent a clear message: he wasn’t going to back down. It became evident to the EU that both Willy and NVMD were not ones to be easily dismissed.In response, the smaller EU member states began to panic. They knew that Willy’s economic power could easily crush any small nation, but they also understood the heavy weight behind him — the Four Great Families, NVMD, and now even A Country and G Country were backing him. These small nations felt increasingly powerless. If the entire world rallied behind Willy, how could they possibly stand up against such overwhelming forces?“Y Country, did you see that? We can’t target him anymore! Just a simple test, and we already know how powerful his background is. His technology and weapons, we can’t even handle them! We might as well bow down to him,” Portugal’s representative suggested
446: Global Live Interview
The decision by the NVMD Big Shot effectively crushed the already fragile factions within the EU. Dozens of people were online, discussing how to respond to Willy’s company’s announcement. While they were still figuring out a plan, NVMD's official statement about the unilateral supply cut to the EU was already released.Not long after NVMD's news broke, A Country also issued a statement, condemning the EU's actions and announcing their strong sanctions and protests.Upon seeing A Country's statement, NVMD's Big Shot was satisfied. He had personally helped push this young figure up the ranks, and now he was stepping up in a critical moment.Meanwhile, J Country’s representative, unsure of how to respond, simply announced that they were injured again and would be returning home to recover.The EU members were stunned. They had thought they could sanction Willy's company and NVMD because they had more allies, but now A Country had sided wit

"Yes, it's true, Willy. Do you remember the doctor who treated my grandfather the day he was cured? After you suggested that my grandfather's illness might have been man-made, the doctor seemed to go crazy. That’s when I suspected something was wrong and had him taken away and interrogated. It turns out that the four major families have enough wealth and power to control everything. These people can’t directly affect our economy, so they resorted to other methods to harm us. My grandfather was one victim, and Betty’s mother was another. She was poisoned during a vacation and aged rapidly overnight. After that, she disappeared from public view. That’s why, at the auction, Betty was so desperate to buy the purple fruit—it was her only way of leaving in a hurry!""Unbelievable!!""Willy, you need to be careful because most of your companies are in NVMD, and you have the Big Shot behind you. You won’t suffer any immediate setbacks, but t
444: Sanctioned
After reviewing all the emails and quickly tallying up the numbers, Willy found that many of his companies in Europe were already facing severe sanctions. Channels had been severed, and nearly every company's accounts had been frozen. He conducted a quick check—postal services, aviation, pharmaceuticals, environmental protection, investments, and securities—all the major sectors, including companies with a market value close to ten trillion, had been sanctioned.Willy wasn’t in a hurry. This was just the beginning. He had plenty of time to play.Seeing Violet still working with the calculator, Willy casually listed all the companies in his industry and their connections on a piece of paper, before making a phone call. "If they want to play sanctions, let’s play. Let’s see who can outplay whom.""Logan, all of Willy's companies in the EU have been sanctioned. From now on, I’m pulling all Willy's companies out of Europe. Willy E

Perhaps it had been a long time since Willy last saw Paul, or perhaps it was because Willy still wore a suit during his encounter with Tian that had left Paul feeling vulnerable.Paul, holding a stack of files, walked up to Willy. At that moment, Violet, carrying a cup of coffee, walked to the door of Willy’s office. What happened next caused Violet’s blood to boil!"Boss, these files need your urgent attention. These three are the recent Galaxy Chips approval documents and reports. These others are the performance analysis reports for the first half of the year, and these are the import-export statements, all needing your signature!"Willy, who had been focused on his computer, didn’t respond immediately. He simply pointed to the desk, signaling Paul to place the documents there.Paul laid out the files that needed signatures in front of Willy and handed him a pen, urging him to sign.
