Commander Goh Phong replied crisply."Five minutes remaining."The once-proud wedding party devolved into a mad scramble for exits and belongings. Their earlier arrogance replaced by pure terror, while Louis stood serenely at the center of it all.As if watching nothing more significant than a change in weather.“This is ridiculous!” Vivian shrieked, her voice echoing against the marble walls. She whirled on Terminator X, her eyes wild.“You must be joking! You came here to give blessings and gifts, didn’t you? Tell me this is all some kind of elaborate joke!”Terminator X didn’t reply immediately, his cold gaze locked on her as if assessing whether she was worth his time. The silence only fueled her anger."This doesn't make sense!" Vivian's voice cracked with hysteria. "Why are you here, Terminator X? Why are you defending that bastard?Ben lunged forward, clamping his hand over her mouth. "Shut up, please!" he hissed. "Don't make things worse!"Oh god, Ben thought frantical

“The only fraud here is you, Mrs. Gutsby.”The crowd collectively gasped, the tension in the room reaching a fever pitch.Vivian’s face twisted in fury. “How dare you speak to me like that! Do you know who I am?”Goh Phong’s lips curled into a faint smirk.“Yeah, I know exactly who you are. And frankly, it’s ... embarrassing.”She wondered how this foolish woman would react once she learnt the true identity of Louis.It would be quite dramatic.Goh Phong bet inwardly. “You—!” Vivian began, but Goh Phong cut her off.“Guards,” she said sharply, gesturing toward the nearest soldiers. “Remove her.”Two soldiers stepped forward, their imposing figures dwarfing Vivian. She stumbled back, panic flashing across her face.“Wait! You can’t do this!” she shrieked. “This is my wedding! You have no right—”“Your rights end where Master Kindsor’s patience does,” Goh Phong said coldly.Her look intimidating.“And you’ve long since exhausted it.”Vivian, however, was not so easily cowed. She

Goh Phong sneered. "A spoiled brat who needs to learn her place!""We PAID good money for this wedding!" Vivian shrieked."You're supposed to be serving us! You should be the one being punished!"BOOM!The crowd collectively gasped."Is she actually insane?" someone whispered loudly."She's got a death wish," another guest muttered."Talking to Terminator X like that!"Ben lunged forward, trying to cover Vivian's mouth. "Vivian, please stop—""Get your hands off me!" She shoved him away violently."This is all wrong! Why are you treating Louis with respect while I'm being hit? He's the one who should be punished!"Vivian's voice grew more hysterical. "Everyone here can testify! Louis disrupted my wedding! He caused all this chaos! Tell them!" She looked around wildly. "You all saw it, didn't you?"The crowd's sympathy instantly evaporated, replaced by anger."Are you out of your mind?" a guest shouted."We all saw what really happened!""You're the one who stopped and insulted

“She cheated on her ex-husband Louis?!”“What a shameless woman!""No wonder she's so eager to slander him!"She never mentioned any of this, Juliet thought, her mind racing. What else has she been hiding?Vivian's face contorted with rage. "You don't know anything! I—""Look at her," a guest sneered. "Still acting righteous after being exposed!""Can't even see her own faults!""A woman like you," Terminator X continued, his voice dripping with contempt, "who bites the hand that feeds her, deserves far worse than a few slaps."The atmosphere grew heavier with each revelation. The wedding guests, who had initially felt some sympathy for Vivian, now looked at her with undisguised disgust.Juliet made one last attempt. "Vivian, please, just apologize and let's go—""Never!" Vivian screamed, her makeup streaking down her face. "I won't apologize to that worthless—"Vivian's hysterical voice echoed through the room. "You're all lying! I never cheated on him! I never slandered anyo

The world's wealthiest man taking orders?"I never thought I'd see Terminator X defer to anyone," someone whispered. "Who is Louis really?""Shut your mouth," another guest hissed.Terminator X's commanding voice cut through the whispers. "Let me make something clear."The guests collectively stiffened, their breaths held."Money might buy you access to this island," he continued, his tone glacial, "but it doesn't buy you the right to create such... embarrassing situations."Even he calls it embarrassing, Juliet thought, her eyes fixed on Louis's unreadable expression."Of course not, sir!" several guests rushed to agree."We would never dream of causing trouble!""Absolutely understood, sir!"Terminator X's gaze swept the room."Anyone who forgets this will find themselves permanently blacklisted. No future cooperation. No exceptions."The threat hung heavy in the air, mingling with the lingering scent of flowers and fear."Crystal clear, sir!""We value any business relationships!

"Though perhaps," Terminator X added with a rare smile, "now you understand why some of us are so... protective of him.""Am I disappointing you?" Louis asked with a playful smile."Not quite the big shot you might have imagined?"Juliet shook her head, her eyes bright with interest. "Not at all! I had no idea you were so skilled in medicine. It's actually quite impressive."But something doesn't add up, she thought, studying Louis's serene expression. But what?Terminator X's sharp eyes caught Juliet's contemplative look. "Miss Juliet, if you wouldn't mind giving us a moment? I need to discuss something private with Louis.""Of course," Juliet nodded politely, though reluctance showed in her movements.As she walked toward the exit, her heels clicking against the marble floor.The remaining guests huddled near the doorway, their whispers growing bolder as they exchanged meaningful looks."Phew!”“So it was just Terminator X being grateful to his savior.” "No wonder Terminator X

The atmosphere in the VIP lounge grew heavy as Louis's expression darkened.He moved to the window, watching the waves crash against Necker Island's pristine shore."Any progress on the investigation I requested, old friend?" Louis's voice was barely above a whisper.Commander Terminator X shifted in his Italian leather chair, bearing evident even in repose. His face, marked by years of command and boardroom battles, showed genuine regret. "Despite all my resources and connections, we've found no conclusive evidence regarding your mother's death, Louis."Louis closed his eyes, memories washing over him like a cold tide. The platinum ring on his finger caught the dying sunlight, throwing shadows across his face."This ring," he said, twisting it slowly, "was her last gift to me. My birthday... who would have thought it would be our final moment together?"The weight of this ring has grown heavier with each passing year, Louis thought, his chest tightening with familiar grief.Termi

"The man who cast me aside without a second thought, who replaced my mother's memory so quickly. Tell me, X, what kind of man shows more emotion over a business deal than his wife's death?"Terminator X's jaw tightened, years of military command having taught him to read between the lines. "Should I redirect our resources to investigate your father's activities from that period?"Louis stared at the photograph for a long moment before carefully returning it to his wallet. "Yes, but be discrete. If there's something to find, I don't want to alert anyone to our suspicions.""Of course. I'll handle this personally, with my most trusted team."The room fell silent save for the distant sound of waves. Louis touched his mother's ring again, feeling its familiar coolness against his skin."Sometimes I wonder," he said softly, "if she knew she was leaving me a mystery to solve, not just a memento to pass on to my future wife."Terminator X's voice carried the conviction of a man who had wo

The murmurs grew louder, this time with a more supportive tone toward Louis. He took a deep breath, drawing strength from Juliet’s unwavering stance.“Vivian’s right about one thing,” Louis began, his voice steady. “I did hold the shard. I fought to control its power because if I hadn’t, none of us would be standing here today.”He stepped forward, his voice rising with conviction. “But what she won’t tell you is what really happened. The Seer was on the verge of destroying everything—this city, its people, its future. I made a choice to stop her, no matter the cost.”Louis turned to the audience, his gaze sweeping over them. “I’ve made mistakes. I’m not perfect. But I’ve never hidden from responsibility. Can Vivian say the same?”The crowd’s murmurs shifted, skepticism giving way to curiosity and even support. Vivian’s frustration was palpable as she tried to regain control.“Don’t let him fool you!” she snapped. “This is nothing more than a desperate attempt to deflect from his fail

Louis froze, the barrage of accusations hitting him like a wave.Juliet stepped in, raising her voice.“Back off! He’s not answering anything without context!”“Oh, let him speak,” Vivian said, her tone saccharine as she waved the reporters closer.“The people deserve to know the truth.”Louis clenched his fists, his voice low but steady.“The truth? The truth is that I stopped The Seer from destroying this city—and probably the world. But you don’t care about that, do you? You care about your headlines and your soundbites.”Vivian chuckled, her laughter light but cutting.“So defensive, Louis. That’s not a good look for someone who claims to be a hero.”Juliet stepped forward, her eyes blazing.“You want a story? Here’s one: Louis put his life on the line to stop The Seer. While people like you sat in your ivory towers, he was out there saving lives. So maybe show a little gratitude.”The crowd murmured, some nodding in agreement, others clearly skeptical.Vivian’s smile faltered for

Louis sat in the corner of a modest café in Apple City, his hood pulled low to avoid the curious gazes of passersby.Juliet sat across from him, a determined look on her face, while Terminator X leaned against the wall, his arms crossed.“Have you seen this?” Juliet said, sliding a holo-screen across the table.It displayed a headline that read: “Hero or Threat? The Truth About Louis and the Nexus Collapse.”Louis glanced at it briefly before pushing it aside.“I don’t care what they’re saying.”“You should,” Terminator X said bluntly.“The city’s elites are turning you into public enemy number one. If you ignore this, it’ll only get worse.”Louis sighed, running a hand through his hair.“They don’t know what happened. They weren’t there. Why should I care about their opinions?”“Because their opinions shape the city,” Juliet countered.“And if you want any chance of rebuilding your life—or stopping future threats—you need to face this head-on.”Before Louis could respond, a notificat

The skyline of Apple City was a stark contrast to the chaos they had left behind at The Nexus.The bustling streets hummed with life, oblivious to the battles fought in the shadows to protect them.Louis, Juliet, and Terminator X sat in a quiet corner of a rooftop overlooking the city, the weight of their journey evident in their tired expressions.The air was crisp, yet the silence between them carried an unspoken heaviness.It was Juliet who finally broke it.“So, it’s really over,” she said, her voice soft, though it carried a note of doubt.“Is it?” Terminator X replied, leaning back against the wall.“The Seer’s gone, but the damage she caused… It’s not something you just undo.”Louis, sitting with the shard in his hands, turned it over slowly, its faint glow a reminder of the power it held.“The network she built will fall apart without her,” he said quietly.“But this—” he held up the shard, “—this is what started it all.”Juliet shifted closer, her gaze steady. “What are you g

The ground beneath their feet trembled violently as The Nexus continued its catastrophic collapse.Chunks of the ceiling rained down, shattering into debris that blocked their path.The air was thick with dust, making it hard to see or breathe.“Move! Don’t stop!” Terminator X bellowed, shoving a falling slab of stone aside as he cleared a path for Juliet and Louis.Juliet grabbed Louis’s arm, trying to keep him steady.His face was pale, his breathing labored, and the faint glow of his hands had all but disappeared.“I’m fine,” Louis muttered, though the strain in his voice betrayed him.“Just keep going.”They sprinted toward the exit, the roar of collapsing stone growing louder behind them.A massive boulder crashed down, blocking their path.“Not this again!” Terminator X growled, slamming his shoulder into the rock. It shifted slightly but didn’t budge.Louis stepped forward, his hands trembling as he summoned the last dregs of his energy.“I’ll move it. Just… get ready to run.”

The chamber fell silent as The Seer’s soldiers halted their advance, forming a protective circle around her.She stepped forward with an air of supreme confidence, her piercing gaze fixed on Louis.Her voice, cold and commanding, echoed through the vast sanctuary."Enough of this pointless struggle," she said."You’re outnumbered, outmatched, and out of time. Let’s end this charade, shall we?"Louis’s chest heaved as he struggled to steady his breathing.The glow of his hands flickered weakly, a sign of his waning strength.He stepped forward, placing himself between The Seer and the obelisk.“You don’t get to decide when this ends,” Louis spat, his voice trembling with defiance.The Seer’s smirk widened.“Oh, but I do. You see, Louis, I’ve already won. You just don’t know it yet.”The Seer’s tone softened as she began circling him, her words laced with a dangerous allure.“You and I are not so different,” she said.“I, too, once fought to protect the balance. I was like your mother,

The entrance to The Nexus was a towering stone gate carved into the mountainside, its surface etched with symbols that pulsed faintly in the dim light.The air around it seemed charged with an otherworldly energy, and Louis could feel the pull of the Heart growing stronger.“We’re here,” Juliet whispered, her voice tinged with awe.Terminator X stepped forward, examining the intricate carvings.“This place isn’t just ancient—it’s alive. The Eternals built it to protect their secrets.”Louis placed his hand on the gate, and the symbols lit up in response.The massive stone doors rumbled as they slid open, revealing a staircase spiraling downward into darkness.“Let’s move,” he said, his tone resolute.“Whatever’s down there, we need to find it before The Seer does.”The staircase opened into a vast underground sanctuary, its cavernous halls illuminated by floating orbs of light.Massive pillars stretched toward the ceiling, their surfaces covered in glowing inscriptions that shifted an

The hideout was quiet except for the soft rustle of maps being unfolded.Louis traced his fingers over the aged parchment, his brow furrowed in concentration.The maps and artifacts recovered from the Kindsor estate were a maze of cryptic symbols and fragmented text.“This marking,” Louis said, pointing to an intricate rune near the center of the map.“It matches the glyphs we saw in the ruins outside Velron. It has to be connected to The Nexus.”Juliet leaned over his shoulder, studying the map.“But look at these coordinates. They lead to the base of the Umbra Peaks. That region is nothing but treacherous cliffs and ancient wards.”“Exactly why it makes sense,” Terminator X chimed in, his arms crossed.“The Eternals wouldn’t make their sanctuary easy to find. It’s meant to keep out anyone unworthy.”Louis nodded, though his expression was grim. “Then we’ll need to be ready for anything.”The group’s journey through the desolate wastelands brought them to a crumbling outpost, its st

The alarms blared louder as Louis worked feverishly to disable the restraints binding Terminator X.His fingers moved with desperate precision, beads of sweat dripping down his face.“Almost there,” Louis muttered under his breath.Terminator X glanced at the approaching guards.“You better hurry, kid. We’re out of time.”The door to the high-security wing burst open, and a squad of soldiers poured in, their movements unnaturally swift and coordinated.Their eyes glowed with a faint, eerie light, and a faint aura of energy surrounded them.“What the hell are those?” Louis asked, his voice tinged with fear.“Genetically enhanced soldiers,” Terminator X growled.“The Seer’s latest playthings.”Juliet’s voice crackled in Louis’s ear.“Louis, I’m almost to your location. Hold on!”The restraints finally clicked open, and Terminator X stood, his muscles flexing despite the toll of his captivity.“Get ready,” he said, his voice grim.“They won’t go down easily.”The first soldier lunged, a
