Dozens of photographs were thrown into the air from Rudolph's hand in the direction of Henry."Can you tell me why you have these?" He asked without getting up from his seat.Henry lowered his head slightly to inspect the scattered pictures on the floor.Without touching a single one, both of his eyes could tell that they were of girls wearing only bras and underwear, captured in various poses.But that wasn't all.The surprising part was the large balloon in the shape of the number 17 towering behind them."Seventeenth birthday? They're still so young! Even if they're all college students, demonstrating their intellectual maturity, that's still a year below the legal age of adulthood. So any intimate involvement with them could be considered illegal," Henry mused.But after a moment of closer examination, he furrowed his brow."Who are these girls? Why do they look so familiar?" he thought.As Henry tried to examine the girls in the photos more closely, Rudolph barked at him again."
Hallie... Williamson?Henry's guess was correct."No wonder this girl doesn't seem to be completely unfamiliar!"Although he wasn't particularly interested in matters like this, he knew that a girl with such a high social status as Hallie would never engage in embarrassing acts like this."But why would she distribute her own private photos? Isn't that a bit strange?" Henry pondered."Mr. Suchet, I truly declare that I have absolutely no knowledge of these pictures!Even if they were found in my locker, isn't there still the possibility that someone else put them there, right?So I don't think you can accuse me just because the pictures were in my locker!"As expected from a professor, even in a stressful situation like this, Henry could still think clearly and control his emotions."Hahaha! Even with clear evidence found in your locker, you're still trying to deny it!Good! Good! Very good!No wonder you were awarded the best graduate student last year! Not only are you intelligent,
Hallie turned around, ready to leave the room.But suddenly..."Wait!"Henry's voice stopped her."What else do you want? You want us to teach you a harsher lesson?" Hattie said, her hands on her hips."From now on, never bother us or anyone else! Got it? Oh, but why should I tell you if you're going to be in jail soon! Hahaha!"Henry seemed unfazed by the taunt.While the girl was still lost in laughter, he asked, "Miss Hattie, you said that a month ago I was involved in an attempt to molest one of my students. Can you be more specific about what class and what day or date this happened?""Matthews!" Rudolph scolded. "How dare you ask such a question! Have you no shame in letting others recount your misdeeds in greater detail?""Mr. Suchet, you misunderstand! This lady said that she doesn't believe that there is a professor who would harm his students. So do I. I just don't believe I would be involved in such a crime!"Turning to Hattie, Henry continued, "So can you answer my questio
Hallie had heard from her father's trusted source that some bodyguards were watching over her, but she didn't know who they were."This young man... how does he know that?"While her mind was still pondering, Henry spoke again."You wouldn't believe it if I didn't prove it to you, would you? Now pay attention!"Having said that, Henry suddenly hugged Hallie from behind and put one of his hands on her neck."You scoundrel! What is this? What are you trying to do? Matthews, quickly release Miss Hallie!"Just as Rudolph shouted at Henry, the door burst open and several young men dressed casually, like college students, entered the room.One... Two...There were four of them."Hey, kid, I'm sure you're smart enough not to do anything stupid! Release Miss Hallie right now!" one of the four men shouted."If I don't release her, what are you going to do?""If you force us, don't blame me if I take action!"The man addressed the other three men.After nodding, they understood what they had to
Chapter 19 - Let Me Handle Them! "W-what do you mean...?" The calm expression on Anayah's face was beginning to fade. The same was true for Hattie. Before they came into this room, they had no idea that they would have to face Henry, and they didn't care. All this time, with their status as Hallie's friends, they could do anything on campus without anyone daring to stop them. In their minds, even if the young man named Henry was from a wealthy family, he certainly wasn't a match for Hallie. So what did they have to fear? However, when they met him and saw how he defended himself, they realized that he was not someone they could deal with. Only Hallie remained calm. Seeing Henry's sharp gaze and questions didn't make her afraid and want to leave the place. Instead, she felt like she wanted to stay there even longer. "Matthews, what kind of nonsense are you talking about? Is this how you treat students? And don't even think about threatening her or any other student while I'm h
It was 8:00 p.m. at a restaurant in a corner of Waterside City."Even after a year abroad, I can never forget the taste of this dish!"With a spoon in her mouth, Hannah couldn't stop praising the delicious ratatouille in front of her.Unlike her appearance earlier in the day, when she wore a short-sleeved red cocktail dress, she now had a more casual yet captivating look."Of course! This restaurant is the only place that serves ratatouille with this unique combination of vegetables and sauce! You won't find this combination anywhere else."In contrast to Hannah, Henry ate his meal calmly.Although ratatouille could be found in many places, even abroad, this restaurant had its own special recipe that set it apart."By the way, did you hear the news about the art department at Fairfield College?" Hannah asked.Fairfield College was one of the six constituent campuses of Waterside University.Just as there were six boroughs in Waterside, there were six constituent campuses for this univ
Thirty minutes earlier.In a private room of a luxurious restaurant, three young girls sat at a long table meant for ten people."What did you do? How did these photos get out?"A beautiful girl in an oversized t-shirt placed the last photo in a small oven on the side of the table.There was still a small flame burning from the top of the stove, and it was filled with the remains of the recently burned photo paper.As she said this, she took a sip of the strong drink in her other hand."Didn't I tell you that none of my private photos were ever supposed to get out?" she said as she took another drink.These were photos taken on Hallie's seventeenth birthday, almost a year ago.At that time, after a family gathering, Anayah and Hattie convinced Hallie to have a wild party and encouraged her to drink various types of alcohol until she got drunk.Due to the excessive drinking, Hallie felt too hot and unconsciously began to remove her clothes.At that moment, she was wearing only a thin b
Despite her very weak and immobile body, Hallie could still hear everything they said.At that moment, tears streamed uncontrollably from both corners of her eyes.It was the first time the cold-hearted girl had ever cried.She had trusted these two girls almost like her own sisters, but they were just friends to exploit her.Even worse, they wanted to sell her to a rich man, not just a year ago, but even now."You two, what have I done to you? Why are you so heartless to me?"Hallie asked them, tears streaming weakly from the corners of her eyes."You ask me, what is your fault? Are you blind?"Slap!While pulling Hallie's hair, Anayah slapped her hard on the cheek."Every time we go somewhere, all eyes are on you and all praise is directed at you!Do you think we are lifeless objects without feelings?If you hadn't stolen all the attention, praise, and admiration, we certainly wouldn't have taken revenge on you!""But it's too late now!"Slap!Hattie said as she also slapped Hallie
Boom!A massive explosion occurred again elsewhere.Boom!Boom!These explosions originated from the collision of two super-high energies, energies capable of destroying the earth.Each time an explosion occurred in one place, a hole no less significant than the hole caused by the comet collision would be created.This continued until it was impossible for anyone in the Avaloria to stay alive.Within a radius of a thousand kilometers, everyone and every other living creature would perish.Buildings would crumble too.Boom!Boom!Boom!It only lasted for ten seconds. But the destructive effects it produced were truly terrifying!"Not bad! It seems like your power has indeed increased significantly compared to before!"Although Noagi's words sounded like praise for Henry, the professor understood it was a hidden mockery.It was like the King of Hell was saying that even though Henry had increased in strength, it still wasn't enough to defeat the King of Hell."You talk too much! You'd b
Seeing his elite troops easily defeated by Henry, Neldor's anger became unbearable."You insolent! How dare you disrupt my life! I will not let you go!"After saying that, Neldor exerted all his strength and quickly teleported towards Henry.Puff!A moment later, he arrived in front of the youth in golden armor."You will die, you troublemaker!"Neldor swung his fist towards Henry's face.Punch!However, before his fist could hit the professor's face, Neldor felt something strange in his body.It couldn't move!"Damn! What's happening to my body?"Neldor then exerted his magical power, thinking that it would surely counterbalance his opponent's magical strength.But nothing changed.Not only did his body remain immobile, but more surprisingly, Henry seemed completely unaffected by his magical techniques."Damn! This is really damn! What kind of technique are you using?" Neldor exclaimed.Henry just smiled slightly."How could someone like you ever accept the fact that there's always a
After gazing satisfied at his troops and people, Neldor lifted the golden crown adorned with diamonds of various sizes and shapes, then directed it towards his head.However, before he could put it on, a giant fireball suddenly appeared in the sky.It was a burning comet heading directly towards them at high speed."Whoa, look up! Look at that!" exclaimed the people in the courtyard. "We need to get out of here right now!"In an instant, the joy they showed turned into panic and fear.The fear of terror was evident in all their eyes.If they didn't flee from the place immediately, the fireball would surely strike them."Danger! This is danger! Quickly leave this place! Go away now!""The people in the courtyard became very scared and panicked, rushing to leave the place right away.However, since Neldor hadn't completed his final procession, which was to wear the crown on his head, he gave Etjun a displeased look."No one is allowed to leave before I finish this procession! This is th
Henry did exactly what God Er asked of him."Aaa!"Quickly, God Athar then threw the black stone into Henry's mouth, causing his tongue to feel like it was burning as soon as the stone touched it.However, before he could think about what to do next, God Athar had already closed his mouth."Swallow!" the God said firmly.Not only did Henry feel the heat in his mouth, but his throat and stomach also felt the same unbearable heat.Although Henry was at the Celestial level, he couldn't withstand this excruciating sensation."Aaarggh!"The intense heat quickly spread throughout his body, making him feel like he was burning from the inside out.As a cultivator, he had never experienced cultivation as strong and terrible as this: it was the most torturous experience!After the heat reached every point in Henry's body, God Er looked towards God Athar."Now is the time!""Hmm!" Athar replied.They each held one of Henry's shoulders, channeling their energy.Athar channeled hot energy while Er
"Neldor, your greatest obstacle has now perished!"The King of the Hell teleported swiftly, even faster than the blink of an eye, then stood before Neldor who was still kneeling on the ground."There is no longer anyone on this earth who possesses Celestial-level power, except for you!"After saying so, the King of Hell looked towards the crack beneath the altar and then made a gesture of lifting his hand upward, as if pulling something.Simultaneously with his hand movement, the crack in the ground widened gradually, causing the earth to shake violently again.Shortly after, one side of the ground collapsed, revealing the belly of the earth filled with lava and sparks of fire, emitting a terrifying orange color.Tramp-tramp-tramp!The earth rumbled again.But this time not because of the tremors, but because of the foot soldiers emerging from the belly of the earth.One by one, they wore tightly enclosed steel armor from head to toe, numbering a thousand.The group of soldiers consis
After Neldor spoke like that, the earth shook violently, causing the monster and Henry to stop their speech and look around.Henry showed a worried expression on his face.His intuition seemed to tell him that something very... very bad was about to happen."Why is this?" he thought. "Why do I feel like my plan won't succeed?"Henry had hoped that by Neldor offering the King of the Hell a carcass as a sacrifice, the monster would suffer a bad fate.But now, he wasn't sure about it."Foolish, why didn't I consider it before?" Henry thought. "Neldor is the offspring of the King of Hell! Even if he does wrong, the king will surely forgive him!"Henry's expression grew even worse.On the contrary, Neldor showed something different.His face continued to show a happy expression with a wider smile on his lips."Hahaha! Finally! The King of Hell! You've come! You've come!"The shaking became stronger for a moment, causing the altar filled with pools of blood to suddenly crack.The longer the
Henry is on his way to the Golden Mountain. With his current level of strength, he does not need Avisuchus to escort him. Even though he is only using ten percent of his inner power, Henry can run very fast, even tens of times faster than a tiger, without feeling tired at all. "No doubt about it!" he thought to himself. "Neldor must be heading there!" Henry knew the monster's destination after observing King Barnabus's wrist. There was a black mark on the king's wrist, as if it had been clamped by a hard object for a very long time. However, it was impossible. Why would King Barnabus torture himself by pinching his own wrist until his skin was severely damaged and scarred? In Henry's judgment, there was only one answer to that. "King Barnabus wants to resurrect Neldor and prepare the gold and jewels to welcome him!" muttered Henry, breaking through the trees, leaping from branch to branch. Unfortunately, the king did not have enough power because only a cultivator at level t
Henry and Dritrix returned to the ruins of the ancient Fairfield Palace to search for clues as to where Neldor had taken Gatrix. After clearing some debris, Henry spotted a door leading to an underground chamber. "This is the door we went through earlier to retrieve the black box!" the girl exclaimed. Before Henry's arrival, the Laomen had taken Libby to show them the way to this place. The two of them then entered the door and walked through an underground corridor with walls made entirely of stone. Oil lamps had been lit on either side after hundreds of years of disuse. They walked for nearly half an hour before finally arriving at a very large room. With a size almost as large as a basketball court, the room didn't seem to be dark because of the abundance of light from the oil lamps. In the middle of the room was a black painted wooden coffin. The surface of this coffin was decorated with carvings of symbols and ancient scriptures. Driven by curiosity, Henry ignored other
Although the shape of the building was a bit unique, it was no different from any other ancient building. Apart from a few moss-covered stone walls, there was nothing special about it. However, Henry could sense a very strong magical energy, especially from the inside of the building. "Why did those scoundrels from Laomen imprison the girls here?" he muttered, thinking that with such strong magic, it wasn't safe for the girls to stay inside. "If anything happens to them, I won't forgive that sect! Even if I owe Makana a debt!" After feeling that there was no danger around him, Henry slowly stepped into the front entrance, the only access to the building, which strangely had no door leaves. However, if someone looked inside, they wouldn't be able to see anything because it was very dark. Of course, that wasn't a problem for Henry. His eyes could now see in the darkness almost as well as when he looked into the light. As soon as Henry walked through the door, the scent of fragr
