When Mia told Gabe that Brendon Carillo, the mayor’s son, had given her a job, she saw a rather confused and cute reaction on Gabe’s face.Gabe blinked a couple of times. “W-What? Why did he give you a job? What job?”Mia smiled faintly. “Some stupid job, which I rejected.”“You rejected?” Gabe couldn’t hide the smile in his eyes. “I knew it. You are smart. That’s why you didn’t fall for his bullshit. Nothing’s free in this world, Mia. If he’s helping you and your family, then he must be up to something.”“Ah-huh,” Mia glanced sideways at him. “Then what about you? What are you up to?”“Uh… I already told you my goal, didn’t I?” Gabe tried to be as straightforward as possible. “That’s why I leased a store for five years so that I can get Freddy and his wife on track, but I didn’t think they’d act like rich kids who are only entitled to the best kind of jobs. What am I supposed to do with the store now? I feel so stupid right now.”“Your intention was good, but you should have at least

Though Systa suggested that dealing with Medusa as quickly as possible was necessary, she still advised Gabe to first get used to his new abilities such as the Alpha Arts and the Omega arts.So, Gabe spent a few hours in the Woods park, training himself in the arts. Once Systa was confident enough in his skills, she gave the green signal.[You are now ready to fight her.] Systa said. [Let’s trace her. Activate your sensory functions through alpha arts.]Gabe had all the required information drilled into his brain. All he needed to do was execute the thoughts. He did various exercises in quick successions, and his five senses received a monstrous boost.His sense of hearing improved so much he was able to hear even the movements of the wind, and the sound of his sweat droplet falling down through the air. He could feel the presence of the tens of thousands of ants that were roaming about in the park, and the few rats that scampered here and there.However, unlike before, he didn’t feel

Somewhere in the city, Britney, mostly known as Medusa, was drinking at a bar. A handsome guy had been hitting on her ever since she entered the bar.She waved her finger at him. Smiling, he walked over to her with a glass of wine in hand. She saw the ring on his hand and said, “A married man like you shouldn’t be hitting on other women now, should he?”“What can I do? I’m a sinner,” he smirked. “And so are you, since you’ve come to a shitty bar like this.”“Heh,” she snickered a little. “Do you want to go to hell? That place is full of sinners.”“If by hell, you mean your house, then yes, I’m fully willing,” he whispered to her. Her eyes shone slightly red. And he was magnetized by her. She got up from her seat and walked away, saying, “Pay the bill and follow me.”He quickly put his purse on the table and followed her, leaving the bar owner a bit speechless and a lot happy because that was a lot of money for the wine they consumed.Medusa took him to a dark alley where there was no

“So you tell me now… What made me sick? Motherfucker!” Medusa’s eyes shone in the dark. She didn’t know for how long he had been observing her, so she couldn’t just attack him straight away. “What do you know?”“Only two kinds of people give excuses,” Gabe said in a normal voice after realizing that she was able to perfectly hear him despite being far away. “Lazy people and those who have things to hide. It’s obvious that you belong to the second category. So, I’m not going to trust anything that comes out of your mouth.”“So, you don’t agree with my words that there’s so much sickness in the world,” Medusa coldly blurted, getting closer with every step she took forward. “Just the other day, I bought some ‘fresh’ apples at a store,” she said. “Yes, I buy things, too, because I lead a double life. But those apples smelled like petroleum to me. I did some research and found out that these ‘smart fresh’ apples were being treated with petroleum-derived gasses to keep them appearing fresh

Medusa couldn’t stay calm after Gabe left. She kept walking aimlessly on the streets, thinking of what to do next.“He’s definitely not ordinary. But if he’s not a vampire, then what is he? I have to find out what his powers are exactly, and for that I’ll need some expendable men whom he can’t trace back to me,” she thought. “The Men in Blood should be perfect for this.”Men in Blood was a secret assassination organization where the members were brainwashed from a young age and were trained to kill and do any mission given to them as long as they were paid appropriately. The best part about this organization was that the members forgot the details of their previous missions and only looked forward to the upcoming missions. Even if they were caught in the act, they would never spill a single bean. So, they were considered as perfect assassins. The way to recognize them was by their nails were all painted in red with blood, which was why their name Men in Blood came to be.“Though it’ll

Systa wanted Gabe to train with the crocodiles for this night, but Gabe had other plans. He spent the entire night doing one thing and one thing only.The next morning.He woke Nicole up and told her to brush her teeth and freshen up. She didn’t know what he was up to, but she did what he told. And then he took her to a store. There was a ribbon tied at the door.Nicole looked at him. “What’s this?”Gabe smiled and gave her a scissor.“W-Wait…” Nicole’s eyes widened. “Don’t tell me… you bought this grocery store?”“I leased it for five years, Mom,” Gabe said. “I’ll hire someone to watch over the store when I’m not around.”“Gabe…” Nicole didn’t look too happy. “You should have told me before you did something like this.”“D-Do you not like it?”“It’s not about liking or disliking…” Nicole could see the inside of the store. All the products she kept seeing on the shelves didn’t please her. “I worked in grocery stores before. They do all kinds of things for profit. For instance, they bu

Gabe patiently waited for ten minutes. “She’s taking so long,” he mumbled to himself.Just then, Draco sneaked up on him and grabbed his hand. Gabe reacted swiftly and axed his hand down onto Draco’s head. He suddenly stopped it at the last second, or Draco would have been struck dead with that blow.Still and all, Draco almost wet his pants from that.“What do you want?” Gabe asked.However, Draco forgot what he came to ask Gabe’s help for. He was just still too scared by what happened. Gabe was not an expert with the children to realize that.“If you don’t have anything to say, then go back to your room,” Gabe hissed.Draco silently went back to his room.At the same time, Mia opened the door and stepped out, wearing a beautiful cream-colored gown that looked so good on her Gabe kept staring at her. It was a simple gown, but the minimal golden designs on it brought a depth to the clothing. “You look so pretty,” Gabe ended up saying these words after hesitating for a couple of second

Gabe ate the rest of the cake while reading the accounts book. With the help of Systa, he was able to read more than ten books in less than half an hour.“With this, I don’t have to worry about resuming the trade with the current dealers,” Gabe thought, “as long as they wish to continue the relationship with this store.”[Why wouldn’t they?] Systa blurted. [They are going to think of you as a newbie shopkeeper, so make sure to teach those punks a lesson.”“Huh… I just realized that I ended up becoming a middle man that I hate,” Gabe sighed.[What are you talking about?]“Well, Mom told me that I need to be crafty to manage this store, didn’t she?” Gabe uttered. “That’s because most shopkeepers profit a lot off of every item they sell. Nowadays, the retail price printed on the products has lost its credibility, so there are people selling things for crazy prices every time there’s some fluctuation in the market. I’ve seen some shopkeepers rise from lowly men to owners of three floored

“Whoever manages to defeat that ‘worthless’ brat will get to keep the omega system.”The moment Gabriel Agnar uttered those last few words, all the nine standing members of the Jaguar squad rushed toward Gabe without a shred of hesitation.They were all elite warriors his grandfather had commanded, all intent on claiming the power that lay still dormant within Gabe."Stand down, brat," the third ranker Bennie called out, her voice layered with authority. "You cannot hope to win against us. Surrender, and you may yet find mercy."“You monsters who are ganging up on me, do you even know what mercy means?” Gabe retorted and countered Fang with a punch.Surprisingly, Gabe’s punch seemed simple but the weight it had was tremendous. Fang was pushed back.But at the same time Stark kicked Gabe’s face.Once again, Stark expected Gabe to be sent flying, but Gabe took the attack without even moving an inch.And it was Stark who frowned in response.Zephyr raised his hand, stopping others from a

“It’s time to return,” Gabriel Agnar said, and these few words changed the body language of all the squad members.In that moment, they let their guard dawn, a small figure dashed in through their ranks and attacked their patriarch Gabriel.Gabriel saw through the first feint and responded accordingly, but the second attack also turned out to be a feint just to distract him so that they could pluck the severed hand out of Gabriel’s hand.And they managed to grab the hand, but no amount of pulling was enough to get the severed hand out of the old man’s grip.Everyone was startled after seeing the young kid who gave off an ethereal energy, which they could sense.This young kid was none other than Ulf.“What do you think you’re doing, kid?” Gabriel asked him.“Ha-ha, good afternoon,” Ulf replied awkwardly, “or is it evening now?” He grew triple in size and clenched his fists. “Omega Arts Secret Move…” He threw in a straight punch at Gabriel’s chest. “Final Fist!”Gabriel took the attack

At Russell’s estate.Zephyr, the head of the Jaguar Squad, struck Gabe’s chest with his palm. A shockwave burst through his chest and ripped the back of Gabe’s shirt in the shape of Zephyr's palm.Gabe coughed out a lot of blood, and his eyes nearly turned white. He was about to fall back.Zephyr caught Gabe’s throat and squeezed it. “If I kill you, then the Alpha System will be ours.”“Gabe!” Mia ran toward him. “No!”“Where do you think you’re running?” Pixie, the number five, blurted. Her green hair extended forth like tree vines and sought to capture Mia.Mia moved swiftly and dodged a few vines, but the hair grew branches like trees, and they were sharp enough to pierce through Mia’s body.Her torso and limbs were riddled with many thin holes.She bled from the nose and mouth and couldn’t move at all. She felt completely frozen.Pixie pulled the hair out and retracted them. Mia fell to her knees.Seeing all this, Gabe’s blood thrummed beneath his skin. His heart pounded with the c

In ancient times, serpents had wings and feet, and they were called by many names. One of those kinds were also called Dragons.So, dragons were indeed serpents with wings and legs. Even in the modern day, dragons were worshiped in some places. Some martial arts were derived from dragons, too.However, Alleria’s martial arts were not related to dragons but of a different serpent kind, whose existence had been erased from history..When Alleria was young, she spent her time in the woods, and the most difficult enemies she faced were the monstrous serpents that lived in that forest. This made her wonder just how much stronger would the serpents be if they had legs, too, as they did in the past.This led Alleria to search through her clan’s library and find the ancient serpent art books. And she picked one that she believed would be the most challenging.And thanks to her collective efforts, she managed to become the head of one of the Eight Enigma Squads, the Serpent Squad.The Ancient S

Alleria was sent flying through multiple walls, and she ended up crashing into the tables of the precious customers.“That hurts…” Alleria’s cheek bruised, and she bled from a corner of her mouth.“W-Who are you?” The customers were all shocked because this woman was wearing armor underneath her cloak, and there was even a short sword at her waist. “Are you a cosplayer?”“Who was that little girl?” Alleria got back up, looking quite irritated because her cloak was dirtied by the food, so she had to remove it. She looked sturdy despite her age, and she was nearly six feet tall. Many men in that hall hadn’t seen such a well-built woman with attractive looks like that before. “Call herself as my grandmother,” she cracked her neck, releasing the gas bubbles from the joints in her spine, “let’s see if you’ve really got what it takes to utter such words.”She rushed into the bathroom, but to her surprise, Systa and Nicole were gone.“What?” Alleria frowned. “I didn’t see them leave.

Nicole was getting out of the taxi, but Systa held her hand and stopped her. “I’m not feeling the urgency anymore. Can we go somewhere else now?”Nicole couldn’t make sense of Systa’s words. The little girl was struggling until seconds ago, and she’s fine now? Something didn’t feel right. Whether Systa was playing games or not, Nicole didn’t want to take the risk. “I’m taking you to the toilet room once.”“Ugh,” Systa hissed at her. “Listen to me.”Nicole was startled. “Did you just hiss at me? And why are you gritting your teeth?”“Because you don’t understand the trouble that you’re in!” Systa blurted. “Driver, turn the car around and get going.”The driver, however, looked at her with a silly expression as if Systa was not the one who’s going to pay him for the ride.Systa didn’t like that the driver was treating her as a little girl. She wished she could show her powers to him, but because of Nicole, she had to hold herself back.“Can you wait here for half an hour for us?” Nicole

Put me down.”“Get used to it,” Nicole pinched Systa’s cheeks. “You know, I watched Gabe grow, but I missed watching a girl grow. I didn’t have a daughter, you see. So, I feel like keeping you with me for as long as possible.”“S-Stop pulling my cheeks!” Systa found it annoying because her skin was not perfectly authentic human-standard.“Stop acting like that,” Nicole stopped pulling the cheek and gently rubbed it. “You’re a girl, so you’re going to raise kids one day.

All he knew was that she was the librarian of the clan that lived in this city.“My goal is to stop another world war from happening,” Russell told her. “If a war breaks out again, then the world really is going to end.”“Silly young man,” the lady named Uzza smiled, “the third world you were worrying about has long started and is still ongoing.”“W-What?” Russell was startled.“Food, air, water, and even people’s very blood has been polluted for decades now and it’s still happening today,” Uzza said. “We see a lot of chemicals being sprayed in the air through special jets.

“It’s one thing that James lost, but for Atarah to lose to this brat…” The number one ranker of the Jaguar Squad, Stark, spoke. “This is quite shameful.”“Indeed,” Fang, the second ranker, opined. “I feel a little embarrassed since I’ve trained James for over a month now. For him to lose without even taking an opponent’s limb is quite disappointing. I hope he’s not dead.”“James is the last ranker, the number 10 of the squad,” the zeroth ranker and the head of the Jaguar Squad, Zephyr, replied. He had a sharp mustache and was cleanly shaven. “He’s the weakest, but Atarah is the ranked fourth in the squad, and she let her younger comrade lose. So, she failed both as a teammate and as an individual fighter. She needs to be punished for her mistakes later. But for now…” He glanced at the number five ranker, who was a green-headed female, Pixie.Pixie stepped forth and treated Atarah’s injury with her vivre.
