For a moment, no one could respond.

Not the elderly man, not his granddaughter, and most especially, not the masked mercenaries.

Everyone continued staring at Xavier in a trance who should have already been slaughtered, completely unsure of how to react until finally…

“Where… where is Fifth Brother?” One of the masked figures stammered, shattering the silence like a fragile piece of glass.

In the next second, speculations filled the air.

“Fifth Brother and his usual antics.”

“Why hasn’t he finished off this idiot already?”

“Ugh! I should have been assigned the task.”

The masked men began to express their discontent and irritation while scanning their surroundings.

However, Xavier did not interject. Instead, he remained entirely at ease, even leisurely chewing on a blade of grass he had procured from who knows where.

At last, however, when the group of mercenaries began to complain after not seeing what they were searching for…

“Are you searchin

    ***** Although Xavier could perceive the impact of his actions, he continued to feign innocence and ignorance, casually chewing on the blade dangling between his lips. “What do you mean I’m not an ordinary person?” He questioned irritably. “Do I have two heads or four arms?”” “This…” The masked leader’s legs tremble. “Hehehe.” The stunning woman, on the other hand, suddenly found herself chuckling, her eyes gleaming as she fixed her gaze on Xavier. Everyone glanced in her direction, yet no one dared to reprimand her because, at this moment, a terrifying presence was standing before them. The mercenary leader, after staring at Xavier in stunned silence for what felt like an eternity, took a deep breath and forcibly steadied himself. “Considering how effortlessly you have subdued those two, you are certainly not an E-rank fighter, nor are you a D-rank,” he stated pensively. And the instant the three people present with him heard his speculation, their breathing

    ***** For a moment that felt like an eternity, an oppressive, deathly silence consumed the area. It was so stifling and suffocating that no one could think or even blink. They couldn’t even move their limbs, making them suddenly resemble frozen statues. Every single person became so rigid that one would assume they were standing before a celestial being who could erase their very existence should they make a single movement. Aside from the three masked men on the crooked streetlight pole, who had already lost consciousness, their leader and the last remaining subordinate slumped against the wall, fixating their gaze on Xavier. Although their expressions were concealed beneath their masks, anyone could envision the sheer dread and panic currently lurking beneath. Meanwhile, Sage Myron and his granddaughter—both remained petrified on the ground, their faces resembling those whose very souls had been ripped away from them. They neither blinked nor stirred; instead,

    *****As soon as Sage Myron’s granddaughter processed his words, her face drained of all color and she hurriedly grasped his arm, her gaze burning with terror and incredulity, as though silently demanding why he had just questioned Xavier.Meanwhile, Xavier remained unfazed, his expression devoid of emotion, and seeing this, Sage Myron became terrified, what he had just done finally settling in."I…" He swallowed hard. "I wasn’t trying to question you, sir. I was just afraid they wouldn’t let the issue go and would rush to report you to the A-rank warrior who assigned them this mission, compelling him to come after you," he explained, his unease becoming even more evident with each word.Xavier was their savior, their benefactor, and he couldn’t allow misfortune to befall him because he had chosen to assist them.Both himself and his granddaughter began to wait anxiously for Xavier’s response, tension coiling around them like a vice.The old man, however, had already begun to of

    ***** Both Sage Myron and Lyria remained frozen in place for what felt like an eternity, staring blankly at the spot where Xavier had once stood. A long silence stretched between them until finally— “Grand… Grandfather, he… I think he has just vanished,” Lyria stammered, snapping the old man out of his stupor, and the moment her words sank in, his expression changed significantly. Although he had already realized Xavier was gone, the weight of it was only now settling in, and with it came an overwhelming sense of loss. His features, already aged, seemed to wither further as his eyes dulled with pain and despair. Then— Thud! He collapsed to his butt. “Grandfather!” Lyria cried out with panic, rushing to the man’s side and clutching him tightly—her pillar, her only source of stability. “Are you all right?” she asked, her voice heavily laced with anxiety. Sage Myron trembled violently, his eyes rimmed with red. “I… I don’t think I’ll be able to wake your fath

    *****The fifth mercenary's voice directly snapped the remaining four out of their daze with brutal force, as if an unseen power had torn them from a nightmarish trance. It felt like being hit by a raw, high-voltage shock, jolting their very souls with a harsh dose of reality.Their eyes darted around, erratic and wide with fear, until all gazes inevitably settled upon their leader.“What?” he barked, his tone edged with hostility, sharp enough to cut through the thick tension in the air. “Why the hell are you all staring at me?”The sheer aggression in his voice sent an immediate shudder through the group, and instinctively, they tore their eyes away, lowering their heads as if submission would shield them from his fury.Yet, no matter how much they tried to suppress their apprehension, the leader himself was no better off. His jaw clenched so tightly that his teeth ground together with a sickening scrape, his breath uneven and laced with barely restrained rage.But amidst the

    *****Bloodfang Viper scrutinized the trembling subordinate kneeling before him, his features eerily composed, his expression an enigma.With this, the oppressive silence in the bright ordinary room stretched unbearably, wrapping around the masked figures like an invisible noose.This was no ordinary matter—it was the singular reason he had journeyed to Riverton City.For years, he had scoured countless regions, exhaustively seeking an Everdusk Bloom, only to always come up empty-handed. Then, finally, a glimmer of hope surfaced—intel revealing that such a rare treasure was within the city's reach.Bloodfang Viper was not a man who procrastinated and the very notion of delay was an insult to his nature. He always executes his missions with unwavering resolve, even if it means wagering his own life. And yet, this time… he had delayed doing his own thing. But instead of receiving the long-sought-after Everdusk Bloom, what he was given instead was this… failure.His calm, express

    *****'What… why is the ground above me? And why am I looking down at the ceiling?’The thought flickered, brief and incomprehensible, in the final moments of the four D-rank fighters.They tried turning their heads, but it seemed immovable, further confusing them.After considerable effort, they finally managed to shift their gaze downward. Their eyes instantly widened, stretching unnaturally as they absorbed the grotesque scene before them.‘Wait… where is my… body?’This was their last thought, and in the following second, their gazes, frozen in shock, dimmed within mere seconds.The light within them faded, extinguished like dying embers in the dead of night. Their eyelids, heavy with the weight of death, fluttered shut.And then—silence.Their souls departed. Never to return.On the other hand, their leader…He remained kneeling on the ground, frozen in place, his body stiff as though turned to stone. His mind, however, was anything but still.A storm raged within.H

    *****“Kakakaka!”A sudden burst of maniac, unrestrained laughter echoed from deep within the Scoan family estate, sharp and chaotic, like the crazed cackling of a madman consumed by madness.It was already late into the night, and given the sheer size of the estate, the eerie laughter carried far and wide, slicing through the silence like a blade.Those still awake felt their spines stiffen in alarm, while those already asleep were wrenched violently from their slumber, jolted upright with pounding hearts.“Who? What in the world?”The estate’s servants, guards, and workers rushed out of their quarters, confusion swirling among them like a thick fog.“Who could possibly be laughing like that at this hour?”Their anxious gazes darted around, searching for the source of the disturbing sound—when suddenly...“This father has finally ascended to supremacy! I am now an F-rank fighter! Let’s see who dares to stand in my way now!”A voice, dripping with arrogance and untamed glee,

    *****Everyone stared, slack-jawed from Xavier to Miss Aria, her words echoing endlessly in their minds.Yet, seemingly unfazed, Aria only gazed calmly at Xavier, waiting for his reaction.But...She would be waiting forever, because, as it turned out, Xavier wasn't going to react at all.Of course, Xavier wasn’t a fool.How could he not understand what the higher-ups of High Fashion were trying to do?They were obviously desperately trying to tie down a big fish, unwilling to let the customer who had just spent fifty million dollars walk away scot-free.What stupid "sole control rights"? What "50% off every future purchase"?All of it — every so-called benefit — was just bait to ensure Xavier would make High Fashion his exclusive brand for spending, splurging, and showing off his wealth.However, it seemed Xavier was the only one who immediately grasped this, or... no, everyone else understood it too.They were just simply too blinded by the sheer flex.After all, what ki

    *****"The volume of items you purchased is so enormous that… that it will take more than a full day just to pack them. Moreover, we’ll need a long truck to transport everything."Dead silence fell over the room once again, and every heart skipped a beat.'The volume of the purchased items wouldn't even fit in regular transport.'‘If that wasn't the ultimate flex, then what was?’Around him, the women, who moments ago had sneered and laughed, were now gazing at Xavier with hearts in their eyes, their stares practically devouring him.‘So handsome! So powerful!’Daisy, the young lady who had been mocked in the Dior store earlier for not knowing about High Fashion, could barely restrain herself.Her heart hammered wildly against her ribs as she fantasized about throwing herself into Xavier’s arms.Their boyfriends, their male companions, noticed this shift, and their faces turned an ugly shade of green.But none of them dared to voice their anger.Not a single one, because th

    *****Meanwhile, Miss Lin, the elegant Dior’s supervisor.Right now, her face was pale, her usually sharp eyes dulled with regret.She had instantly believed Roxie's story and had suggested Amelia’s firing without a second thought—all because she, too, had assumed Xavier was a pauper unworthy of patience.‘Would things have been different if I hadn't judged him so quickly?’ The thought gnawed at her, biting into her pride, her stomach churning.Yet no tears came. Only a deep, hollow sense of dread.Meanwhile, standing just a few steps away, Aria Wynn—the unflappable supervisor of High Fashion—was no better.For the first time in her professional life, her mind was in chaos.Aria, who had built her reputation on her calm, her poise, and her unshakable demeanor, was now battling the overwhelming urge to simply collapse into a chair.She tried everything to steady herself—deep breaths, mental chants, tightening her fists—but nothing worked.Finally, she gave up.Instead, she s

    *****Never in her life had Roxie imagined she would one day kneel down in public, kowtowing, groveling, and begging at someone’s feet—much less offering herself as a servant.Yet here she was.And the worst part?She hadn’t even realized it.If anything, right now, Roxie was trapped in a storm of devastation, pain, and unbearable regret, unable to comprehend how things had spiraled so horrifically out of control.Just some minutes ago, Xavier and his parents had walked into her store of their own volition… calm, polite, and willing to spend their money there.But she and everyone there, blinded by prejudice and contempt for anyone who looked poor, had chased the family of four away as though they were nothing but filth tarnishing the presence of the wealthy ones.And now?Not only had she lost the opportunity to earn a million and a half dollars in commission alone, but she had also thrown away the chance for a promotion she had always longed for—dreamed of.No, worse.She

    *****The receipt machine had long since fallen silent, and now the entire room followed suit.‘That’s true,’ everyone thought in unison.If Dior hadn’t turned Xavier and his family away if they had simply treated them with basic respect, that fifty million dollars would have been their sale.The realization hit like a truck and in the next instant, pity welled up among the spectators—not for Xavier, not for Amelia, but for Dior’s boutique because it was their loss.How could they be so blind?But the person almost feeling the most pain?Undoubtedly, it was Miss Lin, the supervisor of Dior’s boutique.Up until now, she had been frozen, stuck somewhere between shame and horror.But now, now that the full implications had sunk in—her face turned ghostly pale.Her mouth opened and closed wordlessly as she stared at Roxie—the very person responsible for this catastrophe."You… you…" she stammered, raising a trembling hand to point at the woman. "What have you… what have you don

    *****Having been forced to fend for herself since she was old enough to walk, Little Lola knew all too well the value of money.Fifty million dollars, however, was a number too vast for her young mind to grasp.Yet none of that mattered.She didn’t need to understand the math to revel in the moment.She had witnessed how these so-called "adults" had sneered at her uncle, spat venom at her adopted grandparents, and treated them like dirt beneath their feet.Now?Now she was grinning from ear to ear, her little chest puffed up with pride, her cheeks practically glowing as she soaked in the stunned faces around her.Justice tasted sweet, even if she couldn’t calculate the exact price tag.And finally—Miss Aria Wynn, High Fashion’s supervisor.To be fair, although Miss Aria Wynn had remained composed throughout the drama, her elegant posture unwavering, that didn’t mean she was immune to doubt.Even she—sharp, astute, and battle-hardened in the world of luxury fashion had ne

    *****‘Payment successful?’The simple, mechanical phrase echoed like a thunderclap in everyone’s mind, reverberating again and again.Absolute disbelief filled the store.No one! Not a single soul in the room—not even Xavier’s parents had thought the payment would ever succeed.That amount of money… it wasn’t something ordinary people even dreamed of seeing in a bank account. And even if, by some miracle, they had it, who in their right mind would drop it all on clothing?It was the kind of wealth that could elevate a struggling family into the ranks of the upper class overnight.Yet, here it was—casually spent on nothing tangible, but… clothing.The silence that gripped the boutique was deafening.No one blinked.No one breathed.No one even dared to think.The only sound was that of the receipt printer, whirring tirelessly as it spat out a long, seemingly endless ribbon of proof.Proof that none of them could deny.The receipt unspooled like a slow-motion declaration

    *****“Mister,” Miss Aria Wynn’s gentle yet commanding voice interrupted. “Are you still interested in completing the transaction?”The question, so casually spoken, instantly landed like a thunderclap in every ear.Everyone, no matter who fell silent again, and then they turned to the poised supervisor, wondering what her intentions were.Ultimately, someone whispered, “She’s… probably just trying to confirm the manager’s theory.”“Huh”The murmur spread, reaching every ear, and enlightenment sparked.The employees of Dior, especially those who had long coveted Amelia’s enviable position, brightened with anticipation.Roxie in particular lit up like a Christmas tree.She had long been watching Amelia from the sidelines, green with envy.While her own role was capped at the level of boutique manager, Amelia, who barely even worked, lived in luxury.Her paycheck? It was five times her own, and yet she never even lifted a finger, never pitched in, and never hustled.It was a

    *****All attention veered to Roxie, whose words had taken on an almost theatrical flair.Miss Aria raised a brow, unimpressed but curious. “Please, elaborate.”Roxie’s face lit up like she had just been invited to audition for a lead role.Then, with pride swelling in her chest, she jabbed a finger toward Amelia.“If my thought is correct… which most definitely is, she must’ve noticed how our boutique kicked out this bunch of beggars. So, she’s trying to fabricate an extravagant sale to protect her job.”“Hmmm…” all brows rose, and Roxie continued.“She hasn’t made a single sale since she joined your company. Think about it. If she stages this fake purchase, even if the transaction fails, it’ll look like she’s indispensable, since the price of this purchase is something none had ever achieved before.”Roxie smirked, her voice brimming with smugness.“When the higher-ups at High Fashion see a failed transaction notification for fifty million dollars, they’ll most likely assum
