Later that night.Gabe and Mia had already eaten outside, so they were full. Nevertheless, they sat down at the dinner table to talk with Bertha and her family.“Don’t take any food to Freddy,” Gabe told Carrie.“He can’t bear hunger,” Carrie said.“He’s not a child,” Gabe indifferently replied. “Let him starve a little. Let him experience some pain so that he’ll pay attention the next time we speak.”“I agree with Gabe,” Mia said, so there was nothing Carrie could do.“What about the maid?” Bertha asked. “After Freddy touched her, she ran out of the house and hasn’t come back. If she tells Russell Lynn what happened…” Just thinking about it made her heart race.Even Gabe and Mia didn’t want that to happen.“We will find her and talk with her,” Gabe said. “However, I think Freddy should also apologize to her. Otherwise, it will be hard for her to move on and act like nothing ever happened.”“If it’s just an apology, I will make Freddy apologize to her,” Carrie said, even though her eg

After dinner, Gabe and Mia came to the balcony, not to enjoy the cool air, but to talk about something important.“I did not forget what that woman tried to do,” Mia said. “If you are going to their anniversary party, then I’ll come with you.”“I was planning to go, but I didn’t expect Russell to leave us like this,” Gabe said. “He didn’t even tell where he’s going. And I have no idea where he’s now, or when he’s returning. He did say he’ll be back soon, but soon could mean a day or a month.”“Yeah, he should have at least told us before he left, instead of leaving a letter,” Mia opined. And she could read Gabe’s expression. “What’s bothering you? Do you think Russell is up to something?”“I’m trying not to doubt him, but he left his house with his family, and without telling us anything about it,” Gabe said. “It just doesn’t feel right.”“Maybe he was in a hurry?” she gently grabbed his arm. “Don’t jump to conclusions fast. Russell and Jessica didn’t seem like tricksters to me. Put y

Bart had many fights in his life, but he was never beaten or humiliated like this before. He didn’t have any injuries on his torso, but only his face was beaten to a pulp. So, even talking and crying hurt him a lot, enough to make a grown man like him cry due to the pathetic state he was in.Gabe and Mia came downstairs and met Bart.Bart was not expecting to meet these two. He wanted to avoid them, but that didn’t happen.“Bart… aren’t you a strong man?” Mia asked him. “How could you get yourself beaten like this?”Bart could only lower his head in humiliation. “Please help me. I need 4 million dollars, Mia. Russell Lynn can arrange that for me, right? It’s not for free. I’ll pay him back eventually.”“Four million dollars?!” Mia’s eyes enlarged. “What the hell? You said as if it’s just four dollars. Nobody would give you that kind of money.”“Please, Mia. Even if I sell my company, I won’t get enough money,” Bart begged her. “Please help me just this once.”“If we help you, you’ll

A few minutes earlier.Natasha and Kiera were drunk, but still, they drove their way to Russell's mansion. They stopped the car at a distance, but then the street lights turned off.“It’s a good thing that I brought these,” Natasha took out her night binoculars.“Don’t tell me… you bought them to spy on Russell?” Kiera asked, looking a bit shocked.“Of course, not,” Natasha said.However, Kiera laughed. “You’re much crazier than I am.”Natasha looked through her binoculars and saw the mansion bouncing like fresh pudding. “What the…” she rubbed her eyes and looked again. And nothing changed. “Why is the building bouncing?”“Hahaha,” Kiera laughed some more. “That’s because you drank way too much. I don’t think we should be here right now. Let’s go back to your place. I’m feeling way too sleepy right now. I wish someone could just pick me up into their arms and put me in the bed and sing a song so that I slip into deep sleep.”“What are you? A five year old?” Natasha snorted and put th

“Hmph,” the bear-like man snorted and leaped forth at them. “I didn’t come here to see your drama. Just give me the damn ring!” He punched at them. “Terra Fist!”Mia wanted to block his attack, but Gabe reacted faster and countered with the knife-like thrust of his hand.BUDOOM~~!!The impact released a disturbing shockwave that didn’t destroy anything but still made even solid objects wave up and down like energy passing through sea waves. If both of them hadn’t contained their strength, especially the bear-like man, the neighborhood would have already been destroyed.Gabe’s own fist started turning into mud, shocking him as well as Mia.“K-Kya,” she cried out in horror. “Gabe! You arm!”The opponent did not give them a second to think. He tried to grab Gabe’s face. “NO!” Mia screamed, and it sent a shockwave that pushed the bear-man like man many steps away.“The heck?” The bear-like man was startled. (My body instinctively moved back from her scream?) His gaze shifted toward her.

Systa and Ulf appeared in front of Gabe.{You should have called us sooner, Gabe.} Ulf was cracking his knuckles. {I’ve been itching for a battle for a long time.}[Stop yapping, and go deal with those trying to form some sort of a seal.] Systa told him.{Don’t order me around!} he hissed at her.{Shut up and do it.} Systa said and began to walk toward the bear-like man. [You, from the Aeson family… What's your name?]“To create an artificial earthen construct so effortlessly…” A bead of sweat formed on the bear-like man’s cheek. “Are you the Alphaness?”[I don’t go by that name anymore.] She replied. [Just call me Systa.]“How can I not call you by your original name, Alphaness? That’d be blasphemy,” he said. “This man Gabriel does not know anything about the world. If you are with him, he won't be able to satisfy all your desires, either. I know that our Aeson family isn’t as good as the other two families in terms of pure fighting ability, but we have formidable masters with us. If

“I can’t wait to have you iron my clothes, Logan!” Gabe quickly changed his words as he declared openly to Logan. “And your men will be mowing the lawn and catching any rodents that come in without permission!”Being compared with rodents made Logan’s men very angry, but some of them, the angry ones, were already fighting Ulf and were kept busy with his physical and verbal attacks.“This won’t end with your victory,” Logan slowly unsheathed his sword, “but with me tearing your tongue out by the roots, slitting your throat across, and then burying your body in the forgotten sands of a distant sea where there are no birds nor worms to ever feast on your rotting corpse. Your identity will be erased from this world. Nobody will remember you. In a few weeks, they will completely forget about you.”“A good way to threaten your opponent,” Gabe replied with a poised smile, “but I’m not a baby or an upstart for me to shiver in my boots, no, clothes after hearing your words. Logan.”Gabe knew

Normally, Gabe wouldn’t have let Mia fight someone like Logan, given her current strength. But because they were in a dream-esque world, he chose to let her do what she wanted.Nevertheless, he asked her, “Are you sure you want to fight him?”“I will make him eat his words,” Mia raised her head and howled. Her hair completely turned white; her nails grew, and she shapeshifted into a big white wolf, startling Logan and others.Because it was a psychic world, which she herself created, it was possible for her to shapeshift into whatever she wanted.She turned into a beautiful blue-eyed, majestic white wolf. Her fur looked soft for view, but she looked far from soft now.She roared as she leaped forth and clawed at Logan. She was faster than a bullet, and her claw had tons of pressure behind it.Logan blocked her attack, but his sword trembled slightly. “Not bad, but you’re not my opponent!” He also roared and released a lot of energy into the sword and tried to push her back.However, M

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. Even though I’m covered

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. If you ever come across an opponent who wields that

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
