[4 minutes, 30 seconds left.] Iris announced as Perseus dashed to the room where the tracking device indicated Sherry was.

Using his speed at maximum, Perseus sped towards the door, kicking it open and stepping into the room. With his hand in his pocket and a hard look on his face, he glared at the men whose heads snapped towards the door to look at him.

[You got here in time. A reward has been granted, increasing your attributes and combat skills.]

Sherry glanced at the door, her eyes filled with tears streaming down her cheeks. Perseus' eyes darted to her, and he saw the bruises on both her cheeks, making him even more furious.

“What the hell?” one of the men yelled as Perseus stepped closer.

His aura terrified them, alongside the hard look he was giving them. The men trembled, their legs weakening under his intense gaze. It was so suffocating to look at him that they forgot to breathe.

“How dare you?!” Perseus demanded. His cold voice sent some men falling on their butts in fear. “

    Jass grinned widely when he realized Perseus had known he was the real leader.The other men in the room flinched. They were terrified; they knew the other man they claimed to be the leader was just an acting leader. They never knew the real leader was among them, pretending to be the weakest.“Now that you've discovered my identity and said it in front of everyone, I can't let you live,” Jass declared.Perseus tilted his head to the side. “Weren't you the one who peed all over himself when you saw me punch one of your men?”Jass shrugged shamelessly. “I did that on purpose, and it wasn’t pee. It was just a liquid bag I left in my pants. Why the hell would I pee all over myself? You seemed to buy my act a few moments ago. Did she blab to you?”Sherry squeezed herself behind Perseus even more. Her heart was racing, but being close to Perseus made her calmer than before.“Now that I've found you,” Perseus mumbled, “aren’t you going to tell me why you kidnapped my fiancée? If you want so

    Sherry spoke without thinking. “I want them to go to jail, and I also want to find the person who wants to take revenge on you by kidnapping me.”Perseus flicked the tip of her nose, and she winced.“What was that for?” Sherry demanded, rubbing her nose.Since Perseus suspected Seth, he saw no point in going after the person since he was leaving the country. “You say that like you’re strong enough to handle them.”She pouted. “You’re saying that because you’re not the one who gets kidnapped all the time.”Perseus arched an eyebrow. “I can’t be kidnapped.”“The ladies can.”“Lexi can’t, and it’s rare for Eris to be taken too. That’s why you’re the only one who’s been kidnapped all the time.”“I hate you!” she yelled.“Quite the opposite,” Perseus grinned.She pouted. “Well, I just wanted to do my livestream like I always do, but now I’ve missed my date with my fans. They must be mad at me.”“I’m sure they’re more worried about you,” he replied. Then he remembered he had lied to the lad

    “I did nothing to him,” Lexi replied, her gaze lingering on Ryan. “He took one look at me, dropped his gun, and then surrendered. You should ask him instead.”Ryan stared at the masked person. “Just take off your mask.”The person did as they were told. Zeppelin, Ryan, and Lexi's eyes widened when they saw the face. Unlike the masked appearance, the face looked girly with long lashes, green eyes, and blonde hair.“A woman?” Zeppelin questioned.“Yes. My name is Luca,” the once-masked person said.Everyone froze. It was like a golden goose had passed by. She was muscular, which had made them mistake her for a man, not to mention her thick voice, but her face said it all. She was indeed a woman.“What?” Her companion yelled, his eyes rounding in surprise. “You are a woman?”Blood drained from his face as he remembered all the times he had stripped in front of her to shower and dressed in front of her.Luca ignored her companion. “I hope you forgive me. I was sent here by the gang called

    “Am I right, Luca Haryiton?” Perseus questioned.Luca froze, her eyes widening in surprise. Sherry was stunned; she knew the name 'Haryiton.' There was no way she would forget that name. Eris, on the other hand, hurried over to Sherry to ask how she was doing.Perseus stepped closer to Luca, his eyes focused on Lexi as he scanned her body for injuries, but there were none. He glanced at Luca’s companion, who looked like he was holding on to his dear life even though he hadn’t been touched yet.“How do you know my last name?” Luca questioned. “I haven’t used it for the past ten years.”“It is a secret,” Perseus replied blankly. “To think that I would meet a relative of that pompous jerk, Wilson.”Sherry's eyes darted to Luca. She knew she had heard the name from Wilson but brushed it off since they looked nothing alike.“You are the elder sister of a fellow student of mine, Wilson Haryiton,” Perseus said.Luca frowned. “No. I don’t have a brother.”Perseus' lips pressed into a thin lin

    “Be my girlfriend,” Perseus proposed a serious look on his face.Luca's face flushed, turning red in embarrassment. “What the heck?” she yelled, stepping away from Perseus as fast as she could. “How could you ask me to be your girlfriend? You have tons of girlfriends already!”“I forgot to mention that,” Perseus said, running his hand through his hair.“I’m 29! How old are you? You must be the same age as my brother!”Perseus arched his brows. “Does my age matter?”“How can I date someone younger than me?” Luca questioned. “Most especially someone the same age as my younger brother!”Perseus didn’t back down. “If you become my girlfriend, you won’t be sent to jail, and I will be able to protect you and even give you a normal job.”At the mention of a job, Luca had second thoughts. She had no idea who her brother was living with, and she had no money to her name. Perseus looked wealthy and might be able to help her with a job she could use to fend for herself and her brother when she g

    The man glanced at Perseus with a grin as he stared at him. There were five men behind him, each holding a baseball bat and wearing a wide grin.“Luca was sent here and didn’t return. I heard she is working here now, and it has only been a day,” the man said.Perseus looked directly at the man. “I don’t know where you got the information from, but she isn’t working here.”Glaring at Perseus, the man took fast strides until he was standing next to him. “I saw her leave here and go back home with all of you. Not only that, she is in there right now. What job did you give her?”Perseus placed a hand on the man’s shoulder. “Like I said, she doesn’t work here.”The man shoved the hand off himself. “If she is here without working, why is she here then? Did she spill information about our gang to you?”[Analyzing the man in front of you…] Iris announced.[Name: Cole Vinn.][Age: 30][He is the gang leader and has always asked Luca out, but she always turns him down. He had tried impressing h

    “Hey! Where are we going?” Kara demanded, her brows furrowed in confusion. “The restaurant is the other way, and why the hell would the big boss want to see us in a place like that?”“I don’t think Perseus would have asked us to meet him there. He would rather come to us,” Orion said, yawning.He was carrying a bag and had his hand covering his mouth. It was 10 PM and they should have been home, but they had to close late since someone rented the restaurant for a birthday party.Nathaniel was walking next to him, his eyes closed and both hands behind his head. He was tired and needed to sleep.Kara was in long baggy pants and a hoodie, and she had a cross bag on. “Why aren’t you saying anything, Xell?” she questioned.Xell was walking in front of them and they all were in a dark alleyway. The place was quiet and there was no one in sight. Kara could hear the mice running around the place and began to wonder what trenches they were headed to.“Is this the slum?” Orion questioned, holdi

    Perseus pushed a cart forward and picked up a pack containing six eggs. Putting them in the cart, he glanced to his side. Sherry had her camera pointing at him and a bright smile on her face.“Shopping for eggs, I see,” she beamed. “Why don’t you smile at the camera, sweetie?”Perseus smiled at the camera, and she beamed even harder and mumbled, “Thanks.”She moved the camera to the other side and proceeded to pick up the stuff she needed while talking to the camera.“What did you say to the leader of my gang?” Luca questioned, falling into step with Perseus and taking the cart from him. “He left without making a fuss.”Perseus stared at her. “No, he didn’t. He almost killed me by sending bullets through my head, but I was quick to dodge them.”She nodded her head, her face turning pale. “Okay.”“And, I didn’t say anything, and you are no longer part of the gang. To be clear, the gang doesn’t exist anymore. Since you are leaving the country with me, Cole agreed to work under me and fo

    Two years later, Perseus was at the airport, having just landed back in his home country after traveling full-time for two years. He hadn’t heard from anyone during that time, as he’d been constantly changing his number while traveling. He had successfully visited 100 countries and would have continued if not for being called home by his aunt.“Perseus!” Sherry’s voice made him flinch as she called out to him.It had been two years since they last spoke. After the game, he had vanished, claiming he wanted to travel.[She waited for you, Iris noted. I doubt the others did.][He glanced at her. <

    Perseus smiled at the cheering crowd, then turned his gaze to the other side of the audience. His eyes widened in embarrassment when he spotted his aunt and Eriane, waving an old, embarrassing photo of him.His aunt was cheering louder than the teenage girls around her, almost as if she were a teenager herself.He wondered how she even knew about the game and its location since he hadn’t invited her. He was sure he’d be scolded later, but he didn’t mind. Shifting his attention away from her, Perseus walked to his gaming seat.As soon as they all sat down, Perseus glanced at the opposing team, just centimeters away. Sam, one of the opposing players, grinned at him, then gave Perseus the middle finger and mouthed, "Loser. We all know how terrible you are at gaming. Stop using your handsome face

    ‘What is my chance of winning now?’ Perseus questioned.Iris glanced at a panel, her eyes widening in shock. [79%][What am I seeing? You have upgraded to level 20 for discovering Forest's secret and finding a way to defeat him.] She squealed.[Is this really true?]A glint of relief slowly washed over Iris. There was hope that Perseus could finally defeat the man who had long wanted his life.[You can beat him now;] Iris claimed. [Just breathe properly.][His skills have been sealed with all of the points you have left. He won’t be able to use them against you anymore.] Iris announced.Perseus glanced at her, and a t

    Forest leaned in, his eyes cold and calculating. "This isn't just a fight. It's a battle of life and death. I often wonder why your parents gave the power I wanted most to you. I’ve waited for years to see if you’re worthy of the power you possess. But if this is all you have, then you’re not worthy and are just a piece of useless dirt occupying space."Before Perseus could react, Forest flung him across the room like a ragdoll. Perseus crashed to the ground, pain radiating through his body despite Iris’ efforts to heal him.[Perseus, we can’t keep this up much longer!] Iris warned. [You need to find a way to defeat him, or he’ll—]"I know," Perseus muttered, forcing himself to his feet. His vision blurred, but he refused to back down. "I know, Iris. But I’m not giving up. Not yet."Forest approached him slowly, almost leisurely. "So, what will it be, Perseus? Will you continue to fight and prove yourself? Or will you admit defeat and accept that you’re not ready for this?"“If you ad

    [You can! You idiot!] Iris yelled.Perseus snapped out of his thoughts and dodged the attack by moving to the side as quickly as he could. This time, he didn’t hold back his power and unleashed it to the maximum.[Good job.]The man’s eyes glinted with admiration. “Aren’t you a little thing?” he asked. “I get to see someone I can actually fight with without killing them first. This is wonderful. You’re amazing!”Perseus gritted his teeth. The way the man spoke, it was clear he was looking down on him. “What is your name?”The man was taken aback by the sudden question. “Why are you asking your killer their name?”“I just wanted to know the name of the person I’m going to kill before I kill them,” Perseus replied. “Is it that hard?”The man’s lips curled. “Fine. My name is Forest. Not a common name, I guess.”Forest? Perseus’ eyes darted to Iris. ‘Analyze him with the name.’[I am unable to analyze him.] Iris said. [I tried when he arrived, but it was impossible.]“Let’s continue with

    [Your death is near, host.] Iris said, appearing next to Perseus, her gaze fixed on Aera.[Why are you following her? Shouldn’t you be in the game?]Perseus glanced at Iris. ‘I should be in the game, but she insisted on treating my injuries first.’[You have to leave her and level up!] Iris cried. [I have no idea what’s happening, but the panel is blinking more furiously than before.][Your death is really imminent! You need to listen to me and run!]‘I’m not running,’ Perseus replied. ‘That man killed one of my family members and went on with his life. Now, he’s come after me, leaving Zeppelin out of the fight. If I run and he can’t find me, he’ll go after Zeppelin and kill him.’Iris’ eyes widened. [If you don’t run, there’s a high chance you’ll die.]‘I know that.’[Why are you with her then?]‘I can’t let Zeppelin face the same fate as our parents.’[It won’t take long for you to reach level 20.] Iris retorted.‘I have something he doesn't have.’[And what’s that?]‘I have you and

    Tossing in bed, Perseus looked away from Iris. “You don’t have to apologize, Iris. Even if I were to die, it wouldn’t be today anyway.”Iris scowled at him. [What did you just say?]“I said if I were to die, I wouldn’t—”His words were cut off as an electric current surged through him. The shock was so intense that he trembled all over, and when it stopped, steam was rising from his body.[That’s what you get for thinking about death, host!] Iris bellowed. [Do you know that both Lint and I will be gone if you die? Do you know how many people will be sad when you die?]Perseus flinched and slowly turned to lie on his back. Seeing the annoyed look on Iris’s face made him want to laugh.“I was only joking,” Perseus muttered. “I won’t die. I promise.”[You idiot!] Iris yelled, watching Perseus laugh. [If you die, I will kill you!]“How are you going to kill someone who’s already dead?”Two days later.“Are you ready?” Eris demanded, poking her head through the door to look at her teammat

    Ethan handed his phone to Perseus, who glanced at the picture. It was indeed him. They must have gotten it from security footage somewhere.Perseus nodded. “Alright.”“See you later,” Ethan said with a grin. “Don’t go anywhere alone.”“Okay.”Perseus stared at Iris. “I thought I told you to deactivate all of the cameras.”[I did,] she claimed. [I might have forgotten to turn the others off.]Perseus headed for the door since the game of the day would begin soon.[You were wearing a mask though. They wouldn’t be able to recognize you,] Iris said. [There’s nothing to worry about.]Upon reaching the general living room, Perseus met with the others, who were peering at him as if he had something on his face.“You were late, Perseus,” Liliana said.Liliana was standing in front of them with a woman with long lashes next to her. She grinned at Perseus, a smile crossing her face.“I had something to do,” Perseus replied. “I apologize for arriving late.”“No worries,” Liliana said. “Now that

    Perseus turned around to look at the man who had just spoken, ready to throw a punch if necessary.“Are you questioning me?” Cynthia demanded.From the look on her face, she seemed nothing like the woman she was with the leader. Perhaps seeing the man who had made her life a living hell taken by the police had given her some sort of confidence.“Nope,” he replied. “I was just worried if he would be able to lead the girls to his car. They are quite fierce.”“We know that,” Cynthia retorted. “Back to your job.”The men closed the door without any more questions, and Perseus glanced at her. He wanted to ask why she hadn’t let him use his fists but decided against it. In no time, the room was filled with women.Perseus gritted his teeth at the sight of them looking at him with terrified expressions. He wondered what all these women must have gone through to be that scared.“I will be letting them out now,” Perseus told Cynthia.“I will keep watch of the others,” Cynthia said before headin
