VKBoySorry guys for not uploading for almost three days. I get a little busy at the end of each month, so please bear with me. For the readers who don't know, Sansa is a character from another novel of mine called 'Secret Successor' just like Russell is. However, Sansa's character is explored more in this novel and she's more of a mysterious figure in the other novel whose time frame is five years earlier to this one. That novel is 85% complete, and it will be finished in two to three months, so you can read it then if you want. Anyway, I wish you all a wonderful year ahead. Try to overcome your weakness and bad habits, which will automatically help you be much more patient and loving; only then, you can have peace in life, even in the midst of a storm. Cheers.

Bilan came to meet David who was staying at a penthouse now.As Bilan expected, David did not look happy as he didn’t allow him to go anywhere near Gabe because they didn’t want him to make the Aeson family look any more bad in the alpha system’s eyes.After sitting at the dining table, David said, “Why don’t we just put a false case on him and send him to prison? We can have the police forcibly take the copper ring from him.”“There’s no need to do all those things,” Bilan said, picking up fried prawns with the fork. “Gabriel Brando. We didn’t do a thorough check on him yet. But his parents died when he was young, and he's been living with his aunt ever since. He was in poverty for decades and even got dumped by his girlfriend during the wedding. He was suffering very much, until he found the system, or to better put it, the system found him.”“Why would the mighty alpha system choose such a loser?” David kept shaking his head. “It doesn’t make sense. It doesn’t match the stories I’v

Gabe was sleeping on the couch, while using Ulf as a lookout, in case someone were to attack him. Ulf was sitting outside, playing with the ants, which walked along the lines he drew on the ground. When they finished the tasks, he dropped sugar on the ground to reward them. After eating, they lifted their front legs and thanked him. He dropped more sugar, and they took the sugar into their hideout underground. Gabe’s mobile rang. It was Russell calling, so he quickly answered. “Hey, is everything alright?” “Yeah…” Russell said. “Actually, not quite.” Gabe’s heart started beating faster. “Why? What happened?” “Nothing serious, so calm down first,” Russell said. “The thing is, we always do a routine health check for our chefs every month, and we did it to your mom as well.” “D-Did she get bad test results?” Gabe quickly asked. “What was wrong with her?” “It’s the opposite, actually. Her health is quite perfect. From the count of white blood cells to her neural activity, everythin

The next morning.Gabe woke up and came outside the house. Ulf was chatting with the squirrels, which quickly scurried away and climbed the trees.“Why did they run away? I didn’t do anything,” Gabe said.{You actually stepped on two ants the moment you stepped foot outside the house.} Ulf said.“What?” Gabe lifted his foot to see if there were dead ants stuck to the sole of his sandals, but there weren’t any.{You, or humans in general, step on and kill many ants every day.} Ulf added. {When you move around in your house, walk outside casually, every time you do something, some ants die.}“Surely… that’s not the reason the squirrels ran away, right?” Gabe couldn’t help but ask.[I’m sure that’s part of the reason. The squirrels instinctively know that humans are trouble, so they avoid them. You can’t blame them for that.} Ulf said and then made noises with his mouth. The two squirrels heard his sounds and then came down the tree, but they were rather hesitant to come closer as Gabe w

Jessica was showing her marriage albums to Mia, which quite shocked her because it was so grand. There were more than fifty albums in the room, and even more video tapes lying around. It was like watching the wedding of a prince and a princess.“Damn, you guys went all out with this,” Mia said, a bit of envy flowing through her voice. “I can’t even dream of having this type of wedding.”“You already had yours, didn’t you?”“U-Uh, yeah…”“But you haven’t changed your maiden name yet, have you?” Jessica asked.“Um, well… do we really have to change our maiden name?” Mia wondered. “I want to keep the family name that reminds me of my parents.”“You can keep it as your middle name if you want,” Jessica suggested. “It’ll become Mia Reyes Brando then.”“That sounds horrible, though,” Mia opened.“Haha, it does, but taking in your husband’s family name is the respect you give for your husband,” Jessica said, “who is going to become your future parent, best friend, partner for life, and mor

Gabe and Russell met outside his grandfather’s home, which was a medium-sized villa with an extensive garden, swimming pool, tennis court, and even a mini golf-course inside the perimeter walls.As they entered through the main gate, Gabe couldn’t help but ask, “How big is this place? I can’t even see the walls on the other side.”“1200 acres,” Russell said.Gabe’s eyebrows raised against his will. “Damn. 1200? All this for one old man?” he said and then quickly looked at Russell. “Uh, I didn’t mean any offense. I just said what I thought.”“I agree with you. This is a large enough area for three to four universities to fit in,” Russell said, “but my grandfather likes to live alone in his last years. Maybe, after he passes away, we might build a private university here.”“Eh? You’re not going to live in this place?” Gabe was quite surprised.“It’s far from the city, so it's not suitable for us,” Russell said. “We can make this a vacation home, but we already have many other vacation h

“Huh?” Gabe couldn’t believe that Systa would respond like this. He left Systa with Nicole to keep her safe. He told Nicole that Systa was one of his friends’ daughters, but that turned out to be a bad idea as Nicole started feeding her a lot of dishes she personally cooked.Because Systa kept eating without a problem, Nicole kept cooking, thinking that this little girl just has a big appetite and a high metabolism.“If you don’t help me, how am I supposed to know?” Gabe yelled back. “All I need is your opinion.”[Like I said, I’m too busy, Uncle.] Systa replied with a mental message.Gabe got angry, but he could only force himself to smile.“What are you here for, Gabriel?” Regan asked. “Do you want to start a business? Did you come here to seek my advice? Some investment, too, maybe?”“Nothing like that, sir,” Gabe calmly stated. “I came here to help you.”Regan paused for a second and then laughed. “Help me? I don’t need any help, though, unless you can make it easier for me to poo

Despite Russell calling for him, Gabe didn’t stop or even slow down. After Gabe walked out through the front door, Russell caught up with him and stood in front of him. “Just listen to me once,” Russell said. “And then if you still decide to leave, I won’t stop you.” “No matter what you’ll say, I won’t be convinced, Russell,” Gabe blurted. “It’s one thing to commit mistakes, but it’s a whole another thing to not have the heart to even accept the mistakes they committed. Just that attitude your grandfather has shown tells me what kind of person he was, is, and will be… till he enters his grave.” Russell frowned. “Aren’t you judging him too easily?” “Isn’t one grain of rice enough to tell if the whole bowl is cooked or not?” Gabe retorted. Russell sucked in a breath and audibly exhaled through the mouth. “It looks like anything I say might feel like excuses to you, so how about this?” He started removing his suit. “What are you…” Gabe looked confused. Russell tossed the suit on t

Gabe’s karate chop and Russell’s palm heel strike both landed at the same time. Both of them clearly saw each other’s attacks coming, but neither of them backed out.BAM~~!!Russell’s hit was a fraction of a second faster because of the less distance his hand had to cover. So, the palm of his heel struck Gabe’s chin first, making his head lift up and backward. Nevertheless, Gabe’s chopping hand still struck Russell’s trapezius muscle. It wasn’t a powerful strike, but the shock to the muscle caused Russell to almost instantly fall to one of his knees.Gabe was falling backward, but he somehow controlled himself and moved his foot back just in time and regained his balance.Falling on one’s back was the condition to lose, so Russell didn’t lose yet. He immediately jumped and speared his shoulder into Gabe’s abdomen, putting all his weight and momentum behind it.Gabe held onto Russell’s back and tried to stop him, but his feet couldn’t get much balance. Russell lifted his feet up and fu

“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. 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.
