“I see,” Alice said. “What's the occasion?”

“Can a man not buy gifts for his beloved without reason?”

“You can.”

“Exactly.” Elijah nodded. “But there is an occasion.”

“I knew it!”

Elijah chuckled. “There's an auction tonight, hosted by none other than the Roland family.”

Alice paused, her expression taking on a cold turn as she inquired. “They are the ones that…”

“Yes.” Elijah nodded.

Apart from his identity, he made sure to tell Alice everything because he knew she was tough enough to handle them.

So he'd already informed her that the Roland family was responsible for the attack yesterday.

“You are planning to make a move?”

“Yes.” Elijah nodded. “And you are going to expand your network while I deal with that.”

“Alright then, but be careful.”

“Aren't I always?”

Alice snorted before proceeding to take out the dress and the other accessories Elijah had bought for her.

Once they were done preparing, they left the villa as a power couple, quickly making their way to the auction.

  • Head out!

    Hacksaw struggled to raise his head after hearing those words.His eyes were partially covered in blood, so he could not see things clearly.As it was, his internal organs hurt more every time he took a breath.Apart from that, he could not stop coughing up mouthfuls of blood.He was suffering in silence.Who would have thought that a high and mighty person like him would end up in such a situation?He wiped away the blood in the corner of his eyes and looked at the young man in front of him.Elijah's eyes, which were usually warm and friendly, were now extremely cold and aloof, and it was as if he did not even regard Hacksaw as a person but as an animal that had to be slaughtered. At that moment, he felt a surge of hatred mixed with envy in his heart.Why was this young bastard so much more powerful than he was?What did he do to be worthy of such awesome power?Hacksaw cursed Elijah and his bad luck.If only he were half as skilled as Elijah, he wouldn't have to go through any of t

  • Do you regret it?

    It was as though he managed to catch the wind.He then stroked the air with his fingers and punched out strongly.This slap was infused with gushes of spiritual energy so strong that one could even hear the blasts of air.The next instant, Elijah's palm and Hacksaw's claw collided in an instant. All Hacksaw could feel was a stream of spiritual energy thrusting about in his organs.A powerful numbing sensation was spreading across his arm, causing him to shake uncontrollably.Following that, he was sent flying a few meters away.Once he recovered, Hacksaw stared at Elijah, who was still standing as a mountain with a face full of horror.He could feel a gush of blood gurgling up in his body!If he had not suppressed it by force, he would have spat out a mouthful of blood for sure!Although it was only one move, Hacksaw was now completely certain that his opponent was very powerful.Elijah must have at least reached the mythical stage above the Grandmaster Stage!For a while, none made

  • Go die!

    To Angus, killing the young man known as Elijah Silva, who was standing before him, was as easy as crushing an ant.“Final chance, Elijah Silva, are you going to submit or…”Angus sprung into action before Hacksaw could finish speaking, his movements swifter than the eye could catch.No one had expected it.He appeared right in front of Elijah in a split second, swirling up a gust of wind around him.Life and death were only one thought away.Elijah's eyes went cold.He stretched out his hand and clasped it tightly around Angus’s throat, twisting it brutally without hesitation.All Angus felt was a surge of terrifying power spreading from his throat, causing him to cry out in pain.The pain was beyond excruciating!He later realized that he was not breathing.He even felt that his life was slowly fading away.His eyes were wide open as he tried to attack, but he soon realized that he was being locked in a deadly air wall, making him unable to move at all!Angus's eyes dilated, and aft

  • Hacksaw

    The elders of the Augustus family had not given up very far before they fell to their knees with a thud.Elijah had struck their knees by kicking up a few rocks that had broken out of the tiled ground.The elders scrambled to turn around and kowtowed like dogs to Elijah.“Sir, please spare us.”“We were wrong!... We were foolish!... And we should never have crossed you. Please spare us!”“Two hundred million… no, we'll give you a billion in cash as compensation, please have mercy.”The Augustuss had completely given up all hope of surviving if Elijah decided to rip them apart.For that reason, they even gave up their dignity with most especially regretful.Just then, a voice was heard.“I never thought I'd see the day where my kinsmen would be reduced to such a pathetic state.”The elders froze as they recognized that voice as belonging to none other than Albert himself.Before they could say anything, he attacked, proving why he served as the butler of the Augustus family.It was a c

  • Flawless victory

    There was a crisp sound, and Archer's core exploded, resulting in a terrifying wave of energy that would devour any normal person.Unfortunately, Elijah was no ordinary man as he utilized his power to devour the energy, allowing him to swiftly reach a rank that had remained elusive to him for so long.Letting out a sigh, Elijah let go of Archer's lifeless body, allowing it to drop to the ground with a dull thud.He didn't expect that Archer would be so determined as to opt for mutual destruction to prevent himself from spilling anything.Meanwhile, Riley cowered in a corner, shivering after witnessing everything.Elijah slowly turned to him and inquired coldly. “Is that all?”Naturally, Riley didn't dare to respond as he realized just how out of his element he was at that moment.“You will pay for everything you've done, I promise you that,” Elijah said as he took a step forward, only for Simon to loudly intone.“Cousin, it's not over yet. If we work together, we can win!” Riley glan

  • An unbeatable force

    “Brother, let me have a go at him first.” Archer, the first of the two brothers, suggested with a chuckle, with Orion replying.“Sure, but you'd best not start crying for help.”“Hehe, don't underestimate me!” Archer exclaimed as he arched his body slightly.There was a burst of force, and in an instant, his body sprang forward like a cheetah and slammed into Elijah like a battering ram.Even a truck would tip over, let alone a person.Surprisingly, Elijah didn't even act like he felt anything as he blocked the attack with ease before swiftly retaliating.He opened his arms, pushing Archer back a single step, and just as Archer was about to recover, he reached out and grabbed his neck, taking him off his feet and slamming him into the ground the next second.The explosion that followed caused a huge hole in the ground along with the scattering of dust and debris.Archer groaned as he felt like that single attack had somehow managed to destroy all his defenses, leaving him helpless. T

  • The end is near

    Another man pointed his baton at Elijah's head. “This is your last chance, man. Get on your knees and beg for mercy. We will spare you if you can beg well enough.” The reason the thugs were so confident was because of their overwhelming numbers.They felt that there was no way that Elijah would be able to take on all of them at the same time. Elijah was not angered by their insults, as all his anger was reserved for just one individual.“I do not wish to harm you. Retreat now, and all will be forgotten.”Even though Elijah was trying not to carry out a wanton display of violence, the guards didn't understand this and thought that he was only trying to scare them away causing them to grow cockier.“Stop pretending, man!”“If I may, we could open up your head and see what's in your brain. How could you be so cocky!?”“Don't waste your breath on him. Emperor Riley said that once we break his limbs, we will get ten thousand dollars as a bonus.”“Let's get him all at once and kill him!”

  • Twin Star Assassins

    Surprisingly, not only did the weapon not work in the slightest, but the punch Elijah threw somehow managed to reach the attacker despite the distance, creating an indentation in his chest, crushing his ribs and heart in the process.A dull thud followed, after which it swiftly became clear that the fool was dead.Then, Elijah stared at Riley. “I will give you one day. Surrender willingly, or I won't hesitate to do what needs to be done. I promise you.”With that, he left with the atmosphere in the hall thick with tension.“Cousin, we can't let this go!... That bastard has to pay the price for showing his face here!” Simon cried out.“Don't worry, the bastard said he is coming alone tonight. Since he has decided to dig his own grave, we will be more than happy to shove him into it. Go call all the fighters we have hired. Let's give him a hard time tonight!”His eyes flashed with coldness as he turned his head away.Tonight, they would kill Elijah for daring to go against them.At this

  • Step down

    Elijah immediately saw Riley seated at the place of authority, a place once occupied by Sir Augustus.There was an occasional gleam in his eyes that made people not dare to underestimate him.It was lively at first, but when they heard that someone outside had sent over a photo, the scene immediately turned cold as the contents of the photo were swiftly explained.At this point, even Riley's smile faded.Simon, Riley's cousin, and one of those who had betrayed Sir Augustus to side with Riley, slammed the table and angrily exclaimed.“Who dares to harm the good soldiers of our family!”“Me!” Simon froze as he stared at a man suddenly appearing out of nowhere.The man's appearance was foreign, but that was only until he took off the mask he was wearing, revealing his identity as Elijah Silva! “This!” Simon could hardly believe his eyes.Meanwhile, Riley jumped to his feet. “How did you get past security?”“That shouldn't concern you. All that should be is the fact that I'm here for yo
