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

Gabe felt like his heart really jumped into his throat when Frizz suddenly jumped at him, with the clear intent to bite anything it could. And it came straight for his crotch! Because Gabe was in his mindset of not using his supernatural powers due to his recent fight with Russell, his body was not able to react with the speed his mind wanted to. “Frizz!” Russell shouted from the door. The dog immediately shut its mouth, but its nose still hit Gabe’s crotch just for a fraction of a second. The dog quickly stepped back and obediently sat. Gabe’s heart, however, was still racing like never before. He quickly brought his legs together and covered his crotch. Even though he was capable of healing himself, he didn’t even want to imagine a dog biting his little brother. That would be worse than the worst nightmare he ever had. “How many times did I tell you to not attack guests?” Russell yelled at Frizz, but Frizz quickly ran into the building. “Yeah, keep showing your attitude like thi

The car was running smoothly, but of course, it was making a lot more noise compared to the Lamborghini Gabe had driven before. Nevertheless, he felt more like he was driving a car with this machine, as if he could feel the road underneath him but not in a bad way.Gabe was driving carefully, but he was also appreciating the reddish interior of the car, and the extremely metallic classy look which gave a totally different vibe from any car he ever drove, and he had driven a lot of cars because he used to deliver goods in the past. From scooters and motorbikes to cars and heavy trucks, he drove everything. He even worked with excavators for a few months.And the fact that this car also made some heads turn in his direction only added to his impression.All this made him smile. And he was wondering if he should really give this car to Nicole or keep it to himself. After all, if he were to keep it, Nicole could also drive it whenever she wanted, right?As he was thinking along these line

Gabe didn’t return to Regan’s house but ended up going to Tuna Waves and dropped Russell there. He also briefly met Nicole but didn’t tell her about the car as she was busy. He met Systa, too, but she knew he was coming and acted like she was sleeping in the kitchen. Nicole didn’t let him disturb her, so there was nothing he could do. Eventually, Gabe left in his new car all by himself. He was driving slowly while enjoying the ride, but he was also very vigilant and ready to fight if necessary. Wanting to test the car, he took a highway and reached speeds close to 90 mph, but he didn’t go faster, even though it was possible. He stopped the car on the side of the road. “I wasn’t expecting it to be stable even at top speed. The steering is a bit hard for my taste, but it should be fine once I get used to it.” Just then, he heard faint noises in the distance. He looked out through the window. There was an open grass field to his right for as far as 300 feet. He took the key and stepp

“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. There are nanoparticles, graphene, and even parasites in those chemicals, which will mix with water, food, and can even enter people’s bodies through their skin.

“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.
