Bart fell on the neighbor’s roof.

Gabe was running forward, seemingly to jump onto the neighbor’s roof, but Mia stopped him. “That’s enough. You are bleeding.” She used her scarf to tightly wrap it around his head.

“I have to break his bones, Mia. Otherwise, he’s going to attack you again,” Gabe said in a shaky voice because his whole head was hurting.

“Look, he’s not getting up,” Mia said. Bart had indeed lost his consciousness. “We’ll deal with him later. First, you should get treated.” She grabbed her phone with her bloody hands and dialed for an ambulance, but he stopped her.

“There’s no need. This wound will heal by itself,” he said.

“Huh?” Mia looked at him as if a screw in his head had gone loose.

“Can you close your eyes for a few seconds?” he asked.

“Why?” Mia looked confused. Just what reason could he have for him to ask such a question?

“Please,” he softly said.

Mia quickly shut her eyes.

Gabe then turned away from her and took out the copper ring from his underwear before

    “Is it true that Daniel Foster got beaten by someone?”“He broke his ankle and has wounds all over his body, but he said he fell from the stairs.”“Falling from stairs will break the head. Not the ankle, right?”“Yeah, I also think that he’s lying. Someone probably gave him a hell of a beating.”The people in the neighborhood where Cynthia lived kept talking about Daniel. He didn’t have a particularly good image because he mostly showed off in front of others. And he also was a stingy guy who wouldn’t ever pay a penny when dating someone. In fact, all the girls that dated him ended up paying for what he ate. Naturally, he didn’t have a good image in the youth circles.“Gabe…” Cynthia was gritting her teeth like never before. “How dare you humiliate my brother like this?” Ever since the incident happened, Daniel had locked himself in his room and wasn’t letting anyone inside. He didn’t even go to the hospital to get his leg treated. “I can’t let you off after what you did to my brother

    Gabe had never fought a battle this intense before, and he was yet to register a win against the golem that very much looked like Claire, a tall woman with bountiful proportions.Systa had installed the software in Gabe’s body to make him a fourth degree master in karate. He was able to neatly execute Raising Punches, Elbow Strikes, Parallel Punches, and Scissor Punches without compromising in his speed to a significant extent.He executed Foot Sweeping kick, Low Roundhouse kick, Jumping Front Kick, and even the Crescent kick.His punches and kicks were solid, but so was Claire’s defense. Gabe sweated like a pig that had run a marathon, but Claire looked like she was completely unhurt, which only bruised his ego.“Is Claire really this strong?” Gabe asked in frustration. “My arms are hurting when I punch her. My shins are still throbbing in pain.”[You have to fight through the pain and land a double kick as we had an agreement,] Systa coolly stated. “There’s no other way. Don’t focus

    Gabe brought his aunt back to home and told her to not worry about anything and sleep. He went to his dark olive lamborghini that was parked not far from his home.To his surprise, the words ‘I love you,’ were written on the windshield with chalk.It annoyed him. He wiped it with his sleeve before entering the car and driving away.Moments later, Zuri walked out of the shadows and grinned. “I wanted to use his four best friends to get closer to Gabe, but I only learned yesterday that they fought him and got beaten by him. I didn’t believe it at first, but then the people kept talking about Gabe beating heavily built bodyguards that belonged to some powerful security unit. How come a nobody like Gabe who used to swallow his breath if I so much as looked at him for two seconds somehow became capable enough to resist my charm? I have to get to the bottom of this, so I can certainly make him mine.”Gabe drove through different streets and stopped at Cynthia’s house, but he didn’t get out.

    Bad luck had been Gabe’s best friend for as long as he knew this world, and so he was not all that surprised to hear that Rick and others advised against marrying him. Gabe could only force himself to smile because Rick was at least honest about it.“Are you married now?” Rick asked.“No, but I’m trying,” Gabe replied in a bit of a disappointed voice.Rick put his hand on the side of Gabe’s shoulder. “Take this as an old man’s advice to a struggling young man. Before thirty, you think you can marry whenever you want, but once you go past that thirty mark, you’ll have to roam until your sandals wear out, and there’ll still be no guarantee that you’ll get married. It’s even worse for women who are past thirty and are still unmarried.” He slightly frowned. “My daughter is in her mid twenties, and she’s so obese she wouldn’t be able to walk down the passenger’s aisle because her butt is too big. She has to turn half away to the side to walk down the aisle,” just talking about it brought t

    Seeing the lamborghini speeding on them with every fraction of a second, the three ladies ran toward the footpath.Gabe ran the car onto the footpath, making them run back to the road, screaming like terrified chicken. They thought he was going to run through them, but he curved the vehicle past them and stopped it right in front of them at such close range they ended up hitting the side of the car before they could stop themselves.Gabe lowered the window and said, “Who’s the boss?”“W-What?” they didn’t get what he was talking about, or at least acted like that.“Who—is—the—boss?” Gabe asked again and he wasn’t even looking at them. He revved the engine up, skipping their heartbeats.“Y-You are! You are the boss!” all of them said in unison.“Yeah, now get inside,” Gabe uttered.“W-What?” They looked at each other’s faces, thinking that he might do bad things to them if they were to get in his car.“Do you want me to step out?” Gabe raised his voice.“No!” All three of them rushed

    [Why did you roll your eyes and laugh when I said I’m the alpha of alphas?] Systa asked Gabe as he was driving home. “If you’re the alpha of alphas, then who’s Jesus Christ?” asked Gabe, casually. [...] Systa went silent. Soon, Gabe stopped the vehicle at his usual parking spot, which was in the alley. Zuri came running to him and said in a hurry, “Gabe, the Madman is harassing your aunt! You should quickly go and save your aunt!” Gabe’s heart trembled at once. Madman was the biggest drunkard in the neighborhood. After losing his entire family in an accident, he had gone crazy. His relatives had forcefully taken over his house and kicked him out onto the streets. All these affected his mind, and he had become a crazy beggar ever since. The kids would mock him and toy with him every now and then, even though the parents would do their best to keep their kids away from him because there was no telling how this man would act at any particular time. When Zuri said that Madman was ha

    The mobile in Gabe’s hand dropped.Mia’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly picked up the mobile, but Gabe still looked frozen. He couldn’t believe that Mia had actually asked him to marry her. The woman who always looked beautiful in his eyes even without makeup just asked him if he would marry her. He thought this was a dream. It was too surreal for him, after all.“Gabe,” Mia hesitantly said, “will you be husband for a while?”Gabe’s expression slightly changed. “F-For a while? W-What do you mean?” He couldn’t get his head around that phrase. Was the happiness swelling in his just a short-living thing like the froth of boiling milk?“C-Can we talk privately in the park?” she asked.“N-No, let’s talk here,” he shut the main door.Mia right now didn’t mind what neighbors would think. She sat down on the second-hand chair. He sat next to her in another chair.“Gabe, you worked for a day in my house, so you somewhat know how my family members behave,” Mia said, locking her hands togethe

    [You’re making a big mistake, Gabe.] Systa didn’t stop talking ever since Gabe left the house. He was on his way to the farthest UTS local base from his house because it was the headquarters of the city, and the governor wouldn’t visit any other bases. [She wants to use you to solve her problems. Why would you want to marry her for that? I’m betting that she won’t let you touch her or any other woman. When that happens, I’m gonna lose it.]“You talk like you’ve experienced this before,” Gabe muttered while driving in his car.[I have, which is why I know exactly what’s going to happen.]“What if I have sex with Mia then?” Gabe asked.[Hmph, you think you can do that?]“Give me one week, no, one month. I’ll definitely make her fall for my charm!” Gabe said. He was hoping a lot more would happen, but he didn’t want to talk about everything with the system.[If you succeed, then I’ll give you a big reward.]“Thank you.”[But if you fail, you will be punished.]“What punishment?”[You wil

    “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

    “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.
