“Miss,” the teddy bear reached out for Mia’s hand but didn’t touch her. “You should join us.”

Mia was pleasantly surprised.”M-Me? No, no, no. No thank you.”

“Are you sure?” the teddy bear slowly reached out for her hand, making her heart race. “Because I’ll make sure that the wine won’t spill.”

Whether it was his weirdly familiar voice or his charming words, Mia couldn’t resist for some reason. She let him grab her hand, and before she knew it, he pulled her in the flow of the music, and her body moved along. Mia never danced in her life. At best, she tapped her foot to the music. That was all she had in terms of experience, but now, she felt so comfortable as the teddy bear led her and made her dance along effortlessly.

The crowd mimicked them and moved along in couples as well. Draco, however, couldn’t find a partner to dance with, which frustrated him to no end. His mother was occupied. Even his grandmother was occupied. He truly had no one to dance with. So he got angry and stoppe

    Mia wanted to talk with the teddy bear and thank him, but before she could collect her emotions and talk with him, he rushed downstairs.“Why’s he in such a hurry to leave?” she wondered, not knowing that Gabe had been controlling his bladder from bursting while dancing. Nevertheless, Mia went to Kiera and asked, “Who was the guy in the costume?”Kiera paused for a second and said, “It’s Hector. He’s a great dancer, isn’t he?”“Yes. He was so good. I can’t believe he made me dance,” Mia excitedly said. “Now I feel like I can dance if I try.”“Haha,” Kiera laughed a little. She purposely lied about the guy in the costume because she didn’t want Mia to get close to Gabe for obvious reasons. She didn’t want Gabe to end up with someone like Mia.“Um, do you have his number?” Mia asked. “I want to thank him and perhaps give him a treat if possible.”“He’s a great dancer, but he’s not a good man, Mia,” Kiera advised. “I think it’s best if you just forget about him.”“I-Is that so?” Mia felt

    A few minutes later.Gabe went to meet Kiera on the rooftop.Zack and Kiera were dancing together while musicians played in the background.Gabe was no longer wearing the teddy bear suit. He could see some other classmates in the crowd, but he didn’t meet them. He waited until the wedding couple finished dancing.“Kiera,” he walked up to her and hesitantly asked, “if you give the 11,000 dollars, I’ll leave.” “Write him a check, darling,” Kiera said.Zack nodded and wrote a check of 12,000 dollars.“Thank you so much,” Gabe was elated. “I wish you both a happy married life.” He shook their hands and left in a hurry.Kiera and Zack looked at each other and smiled a little savagely.Meanwhile, Bart was woken up by a man, and Bart couldn’t believe that he was actually lying down on the toilet floor.What’s more, the alpha system ring on his hand was gone. However, the smart system was still on his nose.He asked the person who woke him up if he stole the ring. He even searched that perso

    Bart found Hector’s address and went to his home. Hector was suffering from diarrhea, so he was in the bathroom.It was 2 o’clock at night.Bart didn’t even knock the door. He burst his way in and dragged Hector out of the washroom and began to beat his face black and blue. After punching him enough times, he asked, “Where is it?”“Where is what?” Hector was crying from pain. “Who are you?”“Where the fuck is the ring?”“What ring?” Hector looked baffled, but this only made Bart all the more angry.Bart grabbed the egg boiler and smashed it to Hector’s face repeatedly. After turning his face into a grotesquerie, he asked again. “WHERE IS THE RING?”‘I really don’t know what you’re talking about,’ was what Hector wanted to say, but he couldn’t even utter the words properly anymore. It didn’t look like Hector was the one who stole the ring.“Did someone else steal it after this guy left the bathroom?” Bart wondered.“No. I’ve seen this guy steal it,” Smarta said.So, Bart beat Hector so

    Gabe was currently lying down on the mat, trying to sleep, but he wasn’t getting any.“You said I’m an apprentice alpha now, right?”[Yes.] Systa said. [Even though Bart may be drunk, you defeated him with your own guts and strength, so it helped in your level up. You’re an apprentice alpha, so you can feel proud.]“Feel proud? But how? When I became a novice alpha, my body underwent a physical change,” Gabe complained. “However, nothing happened after I became an apprentice alpha.”[That’s not true. You might not have felt it, but the power of your blood has increased significantly, so if you run a marathon now, you’ll be able to finish it much faster than the last time without my help. Not just that, your IQ itself will slowly increase as the new blood steadily enhances your organs. So, you will become a much better version of yourself.]Gabe felt happy hearing that. “If my blood is stronger, I can give some blood to my aunt, right?”[Let’s inject some blood into her veins tomorrow.

    The next morning.Gabe woke up to the shouting of a certain man named Lorry. It was one of the guys he took 1000 dollars from. With six-year interest, it became 3000 dollars now.“You said you’d win the marathon and pay me everything at once,” Lorry howled. “So why didn’t you contact me after the marathon had finished? Oh, wait, it’s because you didn’t fucking win. Forget about the first place, you didn’t even get in the top ten.”“I finished the race, Lorry,” Gabe tried to calm him down. “I got a blender.”“What the fuck will I do with that 50-dollar blender, huh?” Lorry fumed. “The only reason I gave you money was because you babysit my kid for a year. Now, I don’t have my kid with me because my wife took him and I’m paying for him and her, and I need as much money as you can give me. So, please give me something.” He started pleading. “Give me something. Anything.”“I wish I could, but I don’t have a single dollar on me,”Gabe pitifully said.“What about the blender?

    “You want me to pay the license and registration fees for publishing my designs, right?” Mia was talking with Kiera. “Alright, I’ll pay.”“If everything goes well, we’ll conduct a fashion show with your designs next week,” Kiera said excitedly. “You should prepare yourself to appear on television, and tell your family members to watch the show as well.”Mia’s heart started beating faster. “O-Okay.”The call ended.“I will appear on television?” Mia smiled with moderate happiness. “I wish Mom and Dad were alive to see this.”Meanwhile, Gabe was coming home, but he needed to buy an injection. He didn’t have the money for that, so he was wondering who he should borrow some money from.He went to Monroe’s grocery store and asked Monroe for ten dollars, but Monroe didn’t give him anything. He shook his head saying, “Sorry, I can’t. You should find yourself a solid job, Bro.”“Ah, yes. I will,” Gabe said and was leaving.Just then, a young man was passing by, and he suddenly turned toward t

    The next morning.Nicole slowly opened her eyes and realized that she was sleeping with her chest facing the bed, which confused her for a second because she didn’t sleep in that position for years because it would put too much stress on her chest and heart. And yet, she found herself waking up in that position, with her cheek happily pressing into the pillow.Her body felt stiff, and she wasn’t able to properly open and close her fists. Her bones weren’t willing to listen to her command.It took her a few seconds of time, but she managed to turn around with effort and then eventually sat up. Her whole body was aching. Her spine especially felt sore. Her hands weren’t freely opening or closing.“There’s so much heat in my body, but…” she turned her body and put her feet on the floor. Shock was surfacing up into her face, as she was beginning to realize just how much her body had changed overnight. And she was able to get up from the bed and stand up on her feet all by herself, she cov

    A week later. Gabe came to Skin Street, which was known for selling all kinds of skin-related products from facial creams and belts to leather mats and raw skin itself. The street was a lively place, and there were many fashion models roaming the street because the Fashion Street was next to this street. “Are you sure it’s in this place?” Gabe asked. [Trust my memories. I’ve come to this place with one of my previous hosts.] “Why do you call us hosts?” Gabe queried. “That sounds a bit creepy. Can’t you just call me master or owner or something?” [When you become a master alpha, I’ll call you that.] “Fair enough.” [We’re here. Take left.] “Left?” Gabe entered a skinning shop, where birds and deer were being skinned right before his eyes. “They have deer, too? Is this legal?” [Nope. Don’t talk too much, or they’ll pick a fight with you.] The men working in the shop were already giving weird looks to him, as if they were holding themselves back from attacking him. Gabe stopped

    Gabe’s attack kept all the four squad leaders at bay as the electricity that washed through their bodies did not leave to the ground.Instead, it stayed in their bodies, trying to cook them alive.They had to resist the lightning energy with their ethereal energies.At the same time, Mia was able to push Willow back, though her leg suffered a deep cut in the process.Half of her bone was also cut, but she was healing at a fast pace.Regardless, Mia wasn’t worried about these opponents right now because the lightning energy of Gabe was also filling her body.However, it did not hurt her.But it made her feel stronger, and she began to feel Gabe’s presence all the more. Not just his presence, but all the things he had done in the past were popping in her mind.So many new memories poured into her mind.From the memories of his childhood to recent incidents, all the strong memories of his life played in her mind like a fast-moving dream.Some of these memories really squeezed her soul.S

    “This is the end, youngling,” Willow turned into ten thousand different clones which looked like a giant swarm of illusion moving toward Gabe. “Phantom Dance!”All the figures of Willow attacked him in different styles all at once.It looked like Gabe’s entire body was burst to pieces.“It’s over already?” Fang snickered. “Heh, who gets to keep the omega system now?”“It’s not over,” Stark frowned. “Didn’t you see that flash of light?”“What flash?” Fang looked at Stark. “Did you see something that I didn’t?”Zephyr arrived where they were. “He used his lightning ability to move fast… so fast that my eyes also barely followed it.”“How the hell did he move that fast all of a sudden?” Fang frowned. “Where is he now?”Willow put her sword on her shoulder and looked down at the park miles below, a corner of her lips slightly curling up as she saw Gabe standing behind Mia now.“He released a burst of lightning at the last second. I thought he was defending himself, but he used it to pull

    Gabe could feel what happened to Mia, that she was sent flying down to the earth.He wanted to go and help her, but Stark and Fang kept him occupied.The narrow and precise attacks of Stark constantly targeting Gabe’s head were messing with his sense of distance.Fang also stayed closed and made sure to mess with Gabe’s timing by throwing attacks that unpredictably supported Stark.Clearly, they were seasoned fighters who didn’t put a single foot wrong.Even Gabe, who wasn’t much of an experienced fighter, could tell that these two had fought each other and together many times before.Otherwise, such perfect coordination might not be possible.“If I can’t overpower them with technique, I have to do it through other means…” Gabe leaked electricity into the cloud, which reflected it back at Stark and Fang, forcing them to fend off from these sudden attacks.“He’s able to use not just the ground but also the clouds to his advantage,” Fang harrumphed. “How annoying.

    More than two decades ago.“I understand about the alpha system, but why does the Patriarch want to find the luna system, too?” Zephyr was asking his squad commander at the time who was his own aunt.“He wanted to give it to his wife or his daughter, maybe?” Zephyr’s aunt said while smoking from a pipe.“Why?”“Haha, why you ask? Because it’s known to be the best support system,” she laughed. “I don’t know much, either, but the luna system is said to be driven by the owner’s feelings more than any other system. So, it is one of those systems where anger, happiness, and even sadness can be turned into strength. They say it can cast perfect illusions that make dreams resemble reality.”“What? That’s pretty fucked up.”“Yeah, it is a fitting system for any queen, as it has the capability to keep the alpha in check when everyone else fails,” she opined. “That’s why it’s a coveted system, but unfortunately, our clan never got hold of it.

    Bennie created a blue chain with her ‘vivre’ and threw it at Mia.Mia moved around to dodge it, but the chain traveled like a snake, bit on her shoulder, and dug its fangs into her body.Mia felt her energy being sucked away.“Stop struggling,” Bennie smirked. “We’ve been fighting before we learned how to walk properly. Did you think you could beat us because you were chosen by the luna system? From what I can see, you can’t even use it well. So, it’s only right that we take it from you.”As Mia’s energy was getting sucked away, yellow petal flowers began to form in front of her body.The flower slowly turned into a yellow rose.“Is that the luna system?” Bennie’s eyes lit up. “It does match the description I know of.” She pulled the chain and snatched the yellow flower, but Mia also grabbed the chain and didn’t let go. “Just give up already.” Bennie pulled the chain with all her strength.Mia roared, and the yellow rose burst into petals and duplicated themselves into thousands and t

    “Cloud Step.”Zephyr’s body seemingly turned into fog and disappeared into thin air, startling both Gabe and Mia.Mia couldn’t even tell which direction he went, but Gabe rushed over to her and blocked a powerful attack of Zephyr.“Bane Jolt.” Zephyr cried out, releasing a poisonous purple energy through his fist.Gabe was getting pushed back.“Let me help you!” Mia stepped past Gabe and thrust a kick in Zephyr’s ribs.Zephyr’s angry gaze shifted to her. He pointed his left forefinger at her. “Bone Bullet.”A sharp bullet made out bone energy pierced through her abdomen.It was so painful she couldn’t even cry. She staggered back in shock.Before Zephyr could shoot another condensed energy bullet, Gabe caught that forefinger and snapped it.Frowning, Zephyr pulled his hand away, but to his shock, Gabe released lightning and roasted that finger at the same time.As a result, the finger got burned to crisp and separated from Zephyr’s body.Zephyr’s eyes widened as he wasn’t expecting th

    Gabe held Mia in his arms and dashed away with all the power his legs could muster.“If only I could use that teleporting ability…” he was frustrated with the fact that his current level wasn’t enough to pull off such an ability even once.Nine members, like a pack of wolves chasing after two stray wolves, were after Gabe and Mia with the intention of killing them and getting their hands on the precious systems at any cost.However, the only problem they had was that Gabe was traveling on rooftops, and any major confrontation between both parties could destroy the buildings and disturb the citizens, even causing casualties in the process.Gabriel Agnar would severely punish them if innocent people were to get hurt in the process of acquiring systems, so the head of the Jaguar squad, Zephyr, cast a heavenly spell.It was almost like a magic spell, which condensed all the vapors around them and created a massive cloud at a ground level, which spread out for miles upon miles in every dir

    “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
