Sansa’s kick sent Gabe flying into the distance.“Why are you letting him escape?” David coldly glared at her.“I-I was only trying to help you, Uncle,” Sansa quickly said.“Do you think I need your help?” David growled.Meanwhile, after getting blown into the wall by the wind, Russell somehow got up to his feet.He remembered David asking him a few years ago to speak against alcohol and to get it banned if possible because many fights and accidents were happening in the world because of alcohol. And Russell did speak against the alcohol, though he didn’t say it should be completely banned.“You’ve told me to avoid fighting as much as possible as nothing good will come out of it,” Russell said out loud. “So what the hell are you doing now? Raising your fist against my friend just for a system. Do morals apply only to others and not you?”David’s expression, however, didn’t change at all. “It’s not that I want to fight your friend. It’s just that the importance of the system he’s in po

Gabe struck David down by the neck, but it was his mouth that leaked blood from a corner, which was the after effect of the punch he had received to his spine a second ago.“Krgh,” David felt his neck bone crack, but the spirit of fighting in his eyes was still very much there. “You little bastard…”“He’s not done yet,” Sansa quickly pulled Gabe into the smoke. “He’s going to recover quickly. You should run away, take your family and go hide somewhere safe.”“No,” Gabe replied in a deep voice, “if I erase his existence, then there won’t be any problem, unless you are going to tell your family about the alpha system.”“T-That’s…” Sansa’s eyes widened a little. “Y-You think you can defeat my uncle with just that? He’s much stronger than what he’s shown. If we weren’t in the middle of a city, he’d have already killed you with a single powerful blow.”“Where are you, brat?” David’s voice could be heard from the smoke.Gabe clenched his fists and ran into the smoke. “I’m here!”Sansa was s

At Tuna Waves hotel. “How did Gabriel exactly find and save both you and my daughter?” Jessica asked Nicole. She looked very curious and eager to know. “I remember him as an introvert and shy guy who wouldn’t look at anybody. How come he was able to fight all the bad guys and rescue you and Nora? I really want to know.” “You’re right. He used to be so shy,” Nicole laughed thinking about it. “He wouldn’t even go to the doctor to take medicine for himself when he was sick. But I guess, as time passed and he worked at different places, his heart became tough. Still, I think he’s a soft guy. And by that I mean, he’s emotionally vulnerable. He wouldn’t care if some random guy were to speak ill of him, or probably even if the whole world is against him, but if someone he likes were to scold him, then he’d feel bad and cry about it.” She paused for a moment. “His strength and weakness are both the people he puts in his heart. He doesn’t easily trust people, but if he likes and respects some

Mia had come home. Standing alone on the rooftop, watching the stars thicken in the night sky, she was talking with Irene who was a common friend of Mia and Jessica back in school.“Are you saying that you’re thinking of making your marriage permanent?” Irene was not at all expecting this. “Where is this coming from? Are you sure you’re right in your head? Or did he already help your family members settle in their lives or something?”“It’s not that, Irene, but… a lot has happened in these past few weeks, and…” Mia spoke slowly, but there was no hesitation in her voice, “I think Gabe is the one.”Irene went silent for a bit. “He’s the one? I never expected to hear such words from you. Do you even know what the words you said really mean?”“I think I do,” Mia said. “I’m not with him right now, but I want to be with him.”“Ah-huh… it seems Gabriel did something to capture your heart in such a short time,” Irene sounded surprised. “But you are the one who set up a fake marriage with him.

Whom did Gabe call when he was at his lowest? What about when he couldn’t buy pills for his aunt? When he couldn’t afford even one meal a day for both himself and his aunt? When he couldn’t pay the television bill even though television was the only thing that was giving some entertainment to his aunt when he’d go out to work during the day and sometimes even during the night? When he got dumped by Kiera on his wedding day?Nobody.Not a single soul cared, except for maybe Nicole, but he didn’t cry in front of her. He didn’t take his daily troubles to her. He always tried not to show his weak side in front of his aunt, for he was a man.Gabe had a mobile, which had many numbers saved on it, but he didn’t call anyone. Because he probably knew in the back of his mind that nobody would give a shit. Even if someone did, Gabe had seen and experienced enough in life to know that these people would likely use the things he would say against himself.Kiera was a prime example. She told his se

Gabe incessantly attacked David with the heavenly thunder sword, creating tremendous reverberations with every strike, causing the neighborhood to shake. An earthquake of almost five magnitude was felt by the people around the city. It didn’t cause any property damage, but it was continuously felt for a prolonged time, which scared many citizens.Rica and Alexander, who were sparring in an underground facility, also felt the tremors.“These are abnormal seismic waves,” Alexander opined. “Let’s stop the practice and head to the source of these vibrations.”“I was getting close to beating your ass, though,” Rica said. “Is it really necessary to go now? I’m sure someone will take care of the issue.”Alexander’s gaze turned cold.“Ha-ha, I was just kidding, Dad,” Rica quickly changed her mind. “Let’s go.”Meanwhile, Gabe and David were still clashing. David created a large aerial barrier in their vicinity so that the noises and vibrations wouldn’t go outside. Even the people were also not

In a nearby building, the waters had entered their house and just left, but the items on the ground floor were all thrown out of their places, so it looked quite messy.“I’ve never seen or heard of a natural disaster like this,” the father of the house was telling his family members. “Let’s stay in the basement until things calm down. The water won’t come here, so don’t worry.”“But those scary sounds have gone, Dad,” the teenage son said. “Let’s go out and check how things are.”“No! Let’s stay here for a bit longer.”“But it’s so uncomfortable here. The air feels musty,” the son complained.After arguing with each other, they finally came out of the basement, only to see a woman in skimpy clothes unplugging their CCTV footage harddisk.“Thief!” the son cried out. “Dad, she’s stealing our hard drive. She must have stolen other things! Stop her!”The dad saw that Rica was slim and appeared weak. “I don’t want to hurt you, so give back all the things you stole.”“Do you see me carrying

Sansa was running fast on rooftops, but Rica was still able to catch up with her. Sansa stopped on top of a five-floored building, with similarly tall buildings in vicinity. Sansa’s wound on the back had stopped bleeding, but she didn’t look like she wanted to continue fighting. “There’s nowhere you can run away,” Rica grinned, placing her big blood wind blade on her small shoulder. “Unfortunately, you don’t seem to be carrying any systems on you, but that’s fine. As long as I capture you, I’m sure we’ll be able to get a lot of information from you. After all, the Agnar family has much more brutal torture methods compared to you guys who only know how to imitate others.” “Do I look like I’m afraid of you?” Sansa growled back. “Heh, why don’t you quit barking like a dog and show me what you’ve got?” Rica snorted. “I will crush you at your full strength.” Sansa could see that Rica was underestimating her. (Fine. Let’s use this to my advantage.) She clenched her fists and created wat

“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

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.

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.

“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.
