The Devastating Blow and the other overthrown sects were known to Infinity, an organization created solely to assist the Quillon family. Its members collaborate with the Q clan to handle dirty work and dark business done by the opponents. Some former hitmen, such as Luke, were sent to the Covert Killer Association. Even though Luke was a traitor in The Devastating Blow, no one dared to oppose him. Besides, Luke's powers were still valuable, so Ernest kept him alive. Ernest was close to Dante, the previous leader of The Devastating Blow. He had no idea Dante was a member of a demonic sect. Everyone in the underground was taken aback as well. Only the Quillon family knew the truth about Dante."Does the Quillon family really intend to fight the Coup de Grace?" A member resting at the headquarters breathed sharply as he raised the question. He was Corwin, Luke's confidant, before Luke abruptly left him. Until now, he did not know why Luke had stopped communicating with him. The other
Rex had become significantly stronger since his first encounter with Luke. He also underwent training from Erick, the current Histrio's strongest cultivator. His skills were not in doubt. He could be a martial arts trainer if he wanted to.However, Luke was aware that the Q clan did not share their cultivation techniques with everybody else. Only clan members were allowed to learn them. As a result, he was perplexed by Rex's offer."I have no intention of teaching my clan's cultivation techniques to outsiders," Rex said as if he could read Luke's mind. "Recently, I've been developing my own cultivation technique."Luke's pupils dilated in shock. "A-Are you trying to say that you're creating a new cultivation technique?""Yes, that's exactly what I'm doing. I learned many cultivation techniques from Sir Erick and tried something new. It's still under development, so I'm not sure of the results. But you will grow stronger if my cultivation technique can be applied.""Huh, I thought you w
Because there were 'authorities' guarding the area, Rex could not access the forest normally. He broke through at blinding speed. The guards furrowed their brows when they sensed an unusual gust of air. "Did you guys feel that? I think something just passed by.""You're insane. What animal can move that fast? I'm sure it was just the wind.""I agree. The weather in Loris City is not good. There have been a lot of rainstorms lately."The guards put that gust of wind out of their minds because the weather in the Loris was indeed extreme. A strong blast of wind could indicate the coming of a storm. On the other hand, Rex managed to enter the forest without being spotted. No guard was in sight even though he had walked far. It indicated that something dangerous was in the forest; thus, the security crew was not stationed there.Rex knew what that danger was. Loris was a small, remote city in Histrio. It rained more than any other city, so Loris referred to it as the rainy city. Many citi
The security crews were ready to report the strange incident to the government when the Ailurus fam showed up. They were surprised and confused since this was their first time seeing Ailurus villagers. "Are you leaving?" a security guard ventured to ask.Iver nodded. He walked ahead with Rex and Gerhard to lead the way out. The security crews were taken aback when they noticed the blood on his and Rex's clothes. The security guard inquired once more, this time with a shaking voice. "D-Did you guys kill all these beasts?""I don't think I need to answer your question," Iver replied, looking down at his bloodstained clothes. "If you've lost your curiosity, then get out of our way!"As if affected by magic, the security crews immediately stepped aside to allow the Ailurus fam pass. They could not say anything when the Ailurus fam left the Forbidden Forest. Fear gripped them after discovering that Iver had a hand in slaying the beasts.The Ailurus fam turned out to be extremely powerful
Susanne got connected with the Quillon family because the Q clan could provide her with unique materials for her beauty products. In exchange, she agreed to share seventy percent of her company's profits. The Quillon family accepted Susanne's offer because it was profitable. As a result, they became affiliates until now. In addition to being a celebrity, Susanne had one secret identity: she was an alchemist. She was the one who created the beauty product formulations for her brand and clinic.Whatever she created had a positive effect on human skin. Susanne's beauty clinic received top marks for quickly repairing acne scars.Yet, Susanne's true abilities extended beyond the mending of acne scars. She was able to create a potion that could speed up the healing of skin wounds. That's why Carlton requested Rex to meet her. "Madam Susanne, I hope I'm not disturbing your free time," Rex stated when Susanne arrived ahead of him. Susanne shook her head. "You are my honored guest now. Do
Iordan returned to headquarters half an hour later to report what he had discovered. "Master, I met with Susanne at Harmony Beach. She is the sender of the message. I can confirm its veracity," he stated confidently. Even though the person who gave the message was not the enemy, Nolan could not be seen relieved. "Did she say anything else besides the card invitation?" "She just complained about Rex stealing her idea. The measure received a huge amount of pre-orders for a new brand. Hence, she asked you to do something about Rex's business." Iordan waited for Nolan's response with bated breath. He was concerned that his master would be irritated that Susanne requested something unnecessary in such a complicated situation. "Master, you don't have to accept her request," Iordan spoke again. "Besides, Measure will fall into your hands when we defeat the Quillon family. You can give the brand to Susanne." Nolan simply nodded in agreement. For the time being, he would not consider Rex'
Pieter wished someone else was in the elevator than him and Rex because he felt tension. However, the elevator they were in was special. Alonzo, the CSA's main director, ordered him to pick up the Rex family without making a mistake. On the other hand, Lovise and the clients in the lobby appeared to have ruined Rex's mood. Alonzo told Pieter that Rex was avoiding attention. As a result, Pieter was the only one sent to accompany him to the director's office. Everything would have gone well if Lovise had not been rude to Rex. It was normal for her to be upset about the food hunters' group. However, she was not justified in being disrespectful to customers. The security officers would deal with Rex if he was a bothersome gang member. Lovise's only responsibility as a receptionist was to serve customers professionally. "Y-Young Master, did the incident in the lobby bother you?" Pieter finally asked after a long silence. Rex shook his head. "I understand why people act that way. They
Alonzo set aside other tasks to examine the flash disk Rex had given him. His pupils dilated in shock as he read the contents. "This...! Isn't this..." Pieter stood in confusion, not understanding why his boss was stunned. He forgot to put on his glasses; therefore, he could not see the monitor clearly due to his minus eye. "Is the task from Young Master difficult to do until you reacted like that?" "No, it's not a difficult task," Alonzo responded, quickly removing the flash drive from the computer. Even though he trusted Pieter, he would not reveal the CCTV footage Rex had asked for the time being. A major issue appeared to be brewing. Rex asked Alonzo to collect the CCTV footage from the Q clan badge holders' places. With his power as a young master, Rex should be able to easily get the footage from them. He chose not to, though. His actions indicated that he did not trust the badge holders. Alonzo needed to learn what was happening because his knowledge of the Q clan badge
Five years ago, Chelsea escaped from Infinity because she did not want to be a spy anymore. She was fed up with missions that always put her life on the line. While everyone was preparing for war, she secretly ran away to a place she thought no one would reach. Tigris Island was Chelsea's destination at the time. Since the island was filled with evil energy sources and poisonous plants, humans rarely came here. Chelsea would stay on Tigris Island until everyone forgot about her existence. Unfortunately, her plan did not go smoothly due to the arrival of other people. "Huh? Who are they? Why did they come here?" Just then, Coup de Grace troops came to the island. Chelsea had no idea who they were until she saw Nolan carrying Dionne and Selena. "Isn't that Rex's girlfriend?" Chelsea wrinkled her forehead. She was hiding behind a rock at the moment. "Damn it. I came to the wrong place. But I can't run away now because they will realize my existence." Chelsea had hidden her aura earl
On the other side, Nolan still had some energy left despite the massive damage to his chest. He watched Iordan's death with an angry face. If Iordan died, then so would he. Nolan did not want to die like this. With his left power, he could launch the ultimate attack on Rex. But before Nolan could do that, Molly suddenly ran towards him and stabbed his body repeatedly while laughing."Auntie...?" Rex's voice reached Molly's ear, and she immediately stopped stabbing Nolan. Suddenly, memories began to flash across her head. It was the memories of Rex calling her "aunty." She remembered how cheerful she and the Quillon family were when Rex could talk. Little Rex called her with a sweet smile, warming her heart. At that moment, Molly thought, 'I will protect this child whatever it takes'. She devoted her life to caring for Rex and wanted him to live a happy life. For this reason, she was willing to sacrifice Dionne because she thought Rex would be more ambitious. Her thoughts returned
Nolan's body shuddered as he retained the memory of Arthur attacking him with the Hellfire Blade Technique. He remembered exactly how Arthur had beaten him back using that technique. Back then, he still had incredible endurance. But his body was different now after rising from the dead. He was indeed relatively stronger than the average top-level cultivator. Still, Nolan was not as strong as he used to be. He was a little worried, but he was sure Rex was less strong than Arthur. Besides, he also held a secret that would make Rex focus distracted. "The girl you love is probably dead by a shark. It's not my fault because Molly is in charge! A few days ago, she came to one of my sect's bases and told my people Dionne's location." Rex lost his focus because he heard something surprising. Of course, he refused to believe Molly was the mastermind behind Dionne's kidnapping. Molly had been with him since childhood, so the faith between them was firmly established. What made Rex doubt wa
Edmund and Lennart looked at Erick in despair. They did not know what to do to save their master. Since they faced a dragon spirit, they became pessimistic. "I don't think I can finish this," Lennart said, hanging his head in shame. "The divine energy I'm directing keeps getting eaten up by that dragon spirit."Morris looked away from Erick. Before going to Floria, he had opposed Erick's plan to use Inferno Dragon's Breath. The dragon spirit could not be dealt with by anyone in Histrio due to its rare existence. However, Erick still insisted on using the forbidden technique because the undead army could only be defeated with it. In other words, Erick already knew the risks of using Inferno Dragon's Breath. He was ready to die. He had no regrets if he had to die today. "Y-you can stop," Erick stammered. He sounded agonized to even utter a single word. Edmund shook his head. "I won't stop, Master!"Erick smiled faintly. His gaze began to blur. He was painful that he had to leave th
Floria had received an attack from Coup de Grace minutes after Nolan arrived at the presidential palace. The associations and affiliates on guard there immediately restrained the enemies from going to other cities. Armies in other cities did not report any attacks from Coup de Grace. That meant Coup de Grace entered Histrio through Floria because Jaylen helped Nolan. The other cities had been guarded by security forces, making infiltration difficult. For this reason, Coup de Grace would destroy Floria first before attacking other cities. The security forces' mentality would be disturbed if they saw their colleagues die. That was Coup de Grace's goal in targeting Floria. This demonic sect brought powerful fighters with an army of undead. "Everyone, watch out for the undead!" Sander shouted as he fired at the undead, still moving even after being shot. "We don't know how to defeat them. So be careful until we find a way!" Dante did not report on how to defeat Nolan's undead army be
Rex faced the fighters from Coup de Grace while thinking about Dante's report. The report was sent regularly to the NSS when Dante was not yet suspected by Nolan. The report explained that Nolan's followers did not learn necromancy techniques. Nolan taught them Demonic Blood Cultivation. Cultivators had to use the evil energy in their blood to use this cultivation technique. They would go through meditation and particular movements to channel the evil energy. Once successful, they would gain extraordinary strength. Their attacks were deadly, their movements were agile, and their endurance was incredible. "Are you Rex Quillon?" a Coup de Grace member asked as he blocked Rex's attack. "My name is Caius. You should know the name of the person who will kill you."Rex kicked Caius, sending his enemy flying five meters away. Yet, Caius could still stand tall as if nothing had happened. "Are you Arthur's son? You're weaker than expected," Caius smiled mockingly. Rex responded to the ins
Some of the leaders in Infinity looked down in fear as Rex walked up to them. They were Mikael, Jon, Steen, and Viggo. Before working under the Quillon family, they had full control over their business. But everything changed after the Quillon family took over their organization. They no longer had full power and had to get Bertel's permission before making any decisions. Meanwhile, Bertel needed permission from Rex or Elder Han. They were irritated with the system in Infinity but could do nothing about it. That's why they were so happy when they discovered the Quillon family's weakness. Unlucky for them, Rex tricked them."P-Please forgive us!" Steen was the first to admit his mistake. He knelt to Rex, followed by the others. "We are regretful of betraying you. But we're different from Susanne, so forgive us!" Rex kept the spear on his shoulder and looked at Steen with raised eyebrows. "What makes you different from Susanne?""We've never had any contact with Nolan or the Coup de
The message Cole sent made the veins of anger stand out on Rex's forehead and neck. His reaction after reading the message made the others curious. "What's wrong?" asked Edmund, feeling uneasy. Rex returned the phone to Molly. "I don't have time to explain. Master Erick, please come with me. Then, the seven of you should go to see the leaders. Tell them to read Sir Cole's message." "I'll go, Young Master," Molly gestured for six people to accompany her. The others were still curious because Rex had also left them. But they could not do anything because they had to look after Floria. No one knew when Coup de Grace would attack. Meanwhile, Carlton and Elder Han had arrived at the pavilion as they were on guard. Rex and Erick came a short while later. "Nolan deliberately didn't attack because he had a hostage," Carlton said, clenching his fists. "He wanted to get the Silverstar clan out of the affiliation before attacking us." Rex said nothing, but he agreed with his father. No won
Meanwhile, Nolan stared at Cole while evading attacks coming from all sides. Although he was in a difficult situation, he did not look panicked or nervous. Cole looked back at Nolan with a stiff body. The memory of his daughter's death suddenly flashed. He recognized Nolan because the association deployed his face in the previous war. The anger Cole had been holding back for a long time finally rose to the surface. He could not control his emotions anymore. All his life, he had always hoped to meet Nolan and kill him. "You cursed human!"Cole ran towards Nolan while firing bullets. But Nolan avoided the shots easily while he still had to deal with another attack from the others. "I thought you'd be a little stronger after what I did to your family," Nolan taunted, jumping up and landing on a guard, crushing his head. He kicked while rotating, so his kick directly hit five people. The heads of the five instantly separated from their bodies. The others stared at him in shock. They
