Sierra shrugged lightly. “I don’t know, Dad. It’s just an anonymous account—no profile picture, no bio, just some random username. But whoever they are, they were generous tonight.”

Her father’s frown deepened as he listened, concern etched into his expression. “Sierra, you need to be cautious. You have no idea who’s on the other side of that screen, or why they’re doing this. People don’t just hand out money for no reason. It’s not normal.”

Her mother chimed in gently, “Your father’s just looking out for you, honey. It’s wonderful you had someone supportive tonight, but…just keep your guard up.”

Sierra nodded, though a hint of frustration lingered. She understood her father’s concerns, but tonight had felt special. “I’ll be careful, Dad, I promise.”

Elijah finished his food then his drink, savoring the last sip with a contented smile. Tonight felt like a new start, and he was truly happy for himself. Setting down the empty glass, he stretched, feeling the satisfaction of the incredib

    Dorian and his wife stared at their daughter—unable to believe she was defending someone who had just massacred their guards.Even the other people looked confused.But the most stunned person…was Elijah.His eyes narrowed slightly, not mocking this time, but genuinely surprised.He didn’t expect Aurora, proud, fierce, never-bow-to-anyone Aurora, to speak up for him— especially not in front of her entire family… and a Grandmaster.A small smile tugged at the corner of his lips.Shank Thorian raised a brow mildly, glancing at Aurora.“You want me to let him go,” he said slowly, “because he spared you?”Aurora stayed steady.“Yes.”Elder Edmund snapped immediately:“Aurora! This is not your decision. He killed our men! We cannot let him leave alive!”“But he also spared me, Grandpa!” Aurora shot back.“He’s reckless, arrogant and stupid—but he isn’t a senseless murderer. That must mean something.”Geneva exploded before anyone else could speak.“Aurora Halden!” she barked, storming tow

    Elijah just took a look at the grandmaster. A thick black combat coat reinforced with dark metal threading, sleeveless to reveal his battle-hardened arms.Traditional Obsidian Gauntlets, rumored to be unbreakable, fitted over his forearms.Heavy black boots that left small cracks in the ground when he landed.Around his waist, a wide crimson belt embroidered with symbols of the Grandmasters’ Order.And behind him…his presence alone warped the air, making it ripple like heat over molten metal.He turned his gaze toward Elijah, and the wind itself seemed to hold its breath.Elder Edmund stepped forward immediately, straightening his robe and forcing a respectful, relieved smile onto his face. The ground still trembled faintly from Shank Thorian’s arrival, but Edmund walked with confidence.When he reached the towering Grandmaster, he placed a hand over his chest and bowed slightly.“Grandmaster Shank,” Edmund said, voice full of reverence.“It has truly been a long time.”Shank’s cold

    “You see?You’re powerful, Aurora Halden.Very powerful.But fighting me with a sword…”He stepped closer, eyes glowing.“…is like attacking a mountain with a feather.”Aurora’s grip tightened.Her pride burned.She charged again—“HAAAAA!!!”Sword raised.Elijah moved his hand—just one hand—and caught the sword mid-strike.CLANG!!!Aurora’s eyes widened in horror.He held the blade…with his bare hand.Not a drop of blood.Everyone stood frozen.Elijah leaned in and whispered:“Is that your full strength?”Aurora froze, her breath caught in her throat—because Elijah’s fingers tightened around the blade.Just a little.Just enough.CRRRRKKKK… CRAAAAACK!!!Everyone’s eyes widened—SNAP!!!In a split second, Elijah broke the sword cleanly into two, the metal screeching as if it were cheap plastic.Pieces of the blade flew across the courtyard, clattering against the stone.Aurora stumbled back in shock, her hands trembling, staring at the broken hilt in disbelief.Elijah’s expression

    Elijah?He laughed.Not a nervous laugh.A deep, full, amused laugh that echoed around the entire Halden compound.“Hahahaha… oh Aurora Halden…”He slowly spun the sword in his hand——then threw it toward her, letting it land before her feet with a metallic clink.Gasps occurred all around.Elijah pointed at the sword mockingly.“Use that.I’ll use my bare hands.”Aurora blinked once, stunned.Elijah stepped forward, hands behind his back as if offering his neck.“Using my full strength,” he said softly, “would be enough… to make you die from just the wind generated before the strike even touches you.”The courtyard froze.Not a single soul breathed.He tilted his head, smiling in a way that made even Edmund’s spine tingle.“So I won’t use full strength.”He raised one finger.“Else the fight ends before you even blink.”He then spread his arms slightly, taunting.“I dare you.Please… kill me.”Aurora finally exhaled, eyes narrowing into a blade’s edge.She bent down, picked up the sw

    The guard’s mouth opened, a silent gasp of shock choking in his throat. His legs trembled beneath him as blood spread down his uniform.Everyone froze.Everyone.Aurora’s scream died in her throat.Edmund’s jaw dropped.Dorain’s breath vanished.The courtyard fell silent — suffocatingly quiet.Elijah leaned close to the dying man and whispered something only he could hear…And then he yanked the blade free, letting the guard collapse like a lifeless sack at his feet.Elijah straightened, sword dripping, eyes cold.Elijah flicked the blood from the sword. He looked at the remaining guards… then at Edmund… then at Aurora… and finally lowered his gaze to the corpse at his feet.Slowly, a smile curled across his lips. He raised his head, his voice deep and unshaken:“You people really thought you could beat me to death?”Silence thickened.The guards tensed, unsure if they should attack or run.Elijah took one step forward, sword casually resting against his shoulder.“I stand undefeated.

    Aurora stepped forward abruptly, her sharp heels clicking against the stone — a sudden interruption to the guards’ greedy fantasizing.Her crimson eyes narrowed, analyzing Elijah with the precision of a seasoned strategist.“You three,” she commanded, her voice crisp and authoritative. “Don’t rush him one by one. That’s what the others did — and you saw how they ended up.”The guards stiffened, listening.Aurora pointed at the scarred one first.“You, take his left side. Target his weak spots — knees, ribs, the wrist he uses to strike.”Then she turned to the lean one.“You flank from the right — keep him pressured and off balance. Don’t let him dodge freely.”Finally, she met the youngest guard’s eyes.“And you — go straight for his head. Fast strikes. Don’t give him a second to counter. The moment he focuses on one of you, the other two must strike.”Her tone grew colder.“He’s fast — faster than you’ve seen. So end it before he has time to think.”The guards adjusted their grips, r
