As Talon and Pergon conferred near the exit, curious observers watched the newcomers intently.

Pergon forwent inspecting the Quantum ring, much to Talon's surprise. "My sincerest apologies, but how many demonic beast do have you?"

"Three hundred E-Rank beasts," Talon replied.

"Very well then." Pergon began typing calculations into his trade watch. "For E-Rank demons of unknown type, we normally offer..." He hesitated, gazing earnestly at Talon.

"Due to your trust in me, allow me to make an exceptional offer - 10,000 star credits per beast. That's 3 million credits total for your outstanding catch! But I will love you to do business exclusively with me."

"Hmmmmh!" Talon contemplated

[10,000 credits per E-Rank is generous. You likely won't find a better deal. Take it, Talon.]

In the demonic beast trading market, creatures are assigned rankings from F to SSS based on their power levels.

Within the E-Class ranking, prices vary according to a beast's exact attributes and measurements.

    Talon coughed out his food in surprise at Gwen's words. He quickly grabbed a glass of water from the table to stop the choking."Get married?" Talon questioned, seeking confirmation."Yes, I am your betrothed," Gwen blushed.Talon pinched himself and slapped his cheeks, thinking he was dreaming. " What?.....This can't be real," he muttered."I'm sorry, but this is reality," Gwen assured him."What kind of outdated tradition is this?" Talon laughed uncontrollably."I never expected this. I have so much to accomplish, and I'm not ready to marry into any family. I'm not going to settle for something I don't want" Talon said, his tone serious as he stood up from the table."Take your ring and fond someone else to marry," Talon attempted to remove the ring from his finger.Gwen smiled upon hearing his words. She casually ate some fried chicken, crossing her legs on the table without hesitation. She wore shorts, which gave her the freedom to do so. She knew Talon wouldn't be able to remove t

    Talon emerged from his room and made his way to the kitchen to prepare his meal. "With her parents being rich, I suppose this place is stocked to the brim," he muttered to himself upon entering the kitchen. Observing the spaciousness of the room, Talon remarked, "Not bad for a kitchen."He noticed the completely black cooker, with a large holographic head at the far end. Suddenly, the head came to life and immediately addressed Talon, "Sir, how may I assist you?" Talon, slightly taken aback, responded, "I can prepare all sorts of dishes, even ones that haven't been created yet, limited only by your imagination.""Really?" Talon was surprised, as he had always consumed meticulously crafted meals prepared by his Master. "I'd love to put it to the test," he thought to himself. Just then, Gwen's voice interrupted his thoughts, "I've prepared a delicious dish for you, no need to cook another." Gwen smiled as she spoke to Talon.Talon tilted his head, ignoring her presence, and turned back

    Talon was completely shocked that Gwen wasn't injured at all. "So, you made up this when you know that you can heal yourself?" Talon questioned Gwen, his shock evident as she stood up."You have agreed to the deal, so you will have to accept the terms," Gwen said, touching her hair and giving him a playful wink.Talon thought, "This girl really has her ways to get things done.""You still haven't told me about where you intend to take me," Talon said, eager to know their destination."Give me five, I will be right back, and make sure to get dressed too," Gwen said as she walked towards her room.Five minutes later, Gwen came out with a skimpy outfit, and Gwen looked adorable. Talon, upon seeing her, was awestruck."Why are you giving me that look?" Gwen asked, her hands on her waist, eyes wide open."Haven't you seen a beautiful lady before?" Gwen retorted, her eyes still wide."Nothing," Talon replied, trying to hide his surprise."Now we can go. We need to find something suitable fo

    "We need to act swiftly before our master arrives," Arion informed his companions, his eyes fixed on Talon. With Neon and Fredo by his side, their hands clenched together, they all wore wicked smiles."Dogshit!" Arion shouted, capturing the attention of everyone in the bustling mall. Talon's gaze was also drawn towards the source of the voice, recognizing it all too well. It belonged to his childhood archenemy."Arion," Talon muttered, his eyes landing on the now overweight figure, his expression contorting with disgust."Oh! I see dogshit is familiar with his master, " Arion laughed as he was now close to Talon."I can see now that you're a slave of an high-borne that must be why you are present in a shopping mall which you will dream in your next life to buy from." Arion laughed as his big belle vibrated in his poorly wore cloth."The look in your eyes shows that you fully remember me" our time at the Safe zone was quite an enjoyable time."I wouldn't want to cause a scene here so I

    Gwen purposely called Talon "honey" intending to make Talon angry.However, she was surprised to see Arion, who was badly injured.She asked, "What's happening?" Arion, who was lying on the ground, turned his head to see who was speaking.Despite the pain, he managed to sit up, his ears filled with shock upon hearing Gwen call Talon "honey." Arion wanted to create a rift between them and disgrace Talon, as Talon had defeated him. He started crying,"Your servant... beat me and my friends for no. reason... all because he's a low-born like me." Arion smiled at Talon as he shared this with Gwen.Talon, noticing Arion, gave him a sharp, stare. Gwen understood the tension between them just by observing their gaze.She reprimanded Arion, saying, "You don't speak to my fiancé like that." Arion was shocked to learn that Talon was Gwen's fiancé.

    Talon's ability to catch the fireball left everyone bewildered. "Talon! Are you okay? I hope you're not hurt," Gwen said, touching Talon's palm to check for any injuries, no matter how small."Seriously?" Talon shouted, angry and shocked at Paxton. He couldn't believe that Gwen would still try to make Talon more relevant even when he was the one losing the fight.Just as Paxton prepared to unleash another fiery spell, a commanding voice echoed through the shopping center. "Stop this destruction at once," shouted Madame Zoltar from her hovering platform above the food court. The manager gazed down. Her silvery gown shinny with each gesture. "You will pay for the damage caused here today. Spendrift is not a place for reckless battle."Paxton glared back defiantly. "I meant no harm. It was all the cause of him." Paxton pointed at Talon. "Accident or not, repairs are needed. Each of you must compensate me accordingly." Madame Zoltar's stern look left no room for argument. Paxton, aim

    Talon found himself forcefully pinned against the wall, the impact of the strike leaving him stunned and bewildered by the masked individual's identity. "Who are you?" Talon questioned, clutching his abdomen and locking eyes with the enigmatic figure, who remained silent."You're not as formidable as I had anticipated," the figure chuckled, studying Talon, who stood there in a state of shock."I despise being called weak!" Talon retaliated, launching himself towards the figure with lightning speed, delivering a swift and powerful punch."Kid, if you want to lay a hand on me, you'll need to do better," the figure remarked, effortlessly catching the punch and skillfully redirecting its force, sending Talon hurtling backward to collide with the wall.."I see that you're far too feeble. I suppose I shall have to end you. You are unworthy," the figure declared, summoning a long, razor-sharp sword and advancing menacingly towards Talon.With his life hanging in the balance, Talon recognized

    Talon groaned, his head throbbing from the aftermath of the previous fight. "What happened?" he muttered, pushing himself up and following the sound of voices.As he approached, Talon finally caught sight of the masked figure, and to his surprise, there was a striking resemblance between the figure and Gwen. They shared the same fiery red hair and facial structure, although the figure stood slightly taller than Gwen."You're her brother?" Talon exclaimed, pointing a finger at the figure, his shock evident."Hi! Nice to meet you?" the brother greeted, waving and smiling at Talon. But Talon was too angry and frustrated to reciprocate the gesture."This isn't the first time your family has tried to kill me. Why does your family want me dead so badly?" Talon demanded, his gaze fixed on Gwen, who maintained a somber expression."It wasn't my intention to actually do that. I was testing if you're worthy of my sister," Nate, Gwen's brother, explained, extending his hand for a shake. However,

    Talon grabbed her waist, unable to contain himself as he tore her clothes with speed.He began to devour her body, kissing her neck. "You've gained some curves while I was away," Talon said, noting how Gwen had indeed filled out more than before. The change had only enhanced her figure, making her shape more seductive than ever."Don't you like it?" Gwen moaned softly as Talon explored the rest of her body."Why wouldn't I love your fuller curves?" Talon smiled as he grabbed her bottom and squeezed firmly."Mmh! Bad boy," Gwen moaned as she felt the pressure from his hands, finding pleasure in the sensation."Why don't you explore there too?" Gwen said in a soft tone."Of course," Talon replied, gripping her waist and lifting her up, positioning her immediately."I'll show you what it means to explore," Talon said, fully aroused.Talon hadn't actually seen her body in such detail before - their last encounter had been while he was barely conscious, and he couldn't remember much of wha

    Can't Hold Back The Urge

    “And I tried to save her by using my body to wedge her,” Talon concluded the story of how he first met Gwen a decade ago. David had already fallen asleep by now.Talon still held onto Gwen’s hands as David had requested.However, noticing that David was now asleep, Gwen quietly removed her hands. She hadn’t yet forgiven Talon and was still upset.Angry and flustered, Gwen attempted to leave the room. It was already late at night.Talon felt a bit sad, but decided to give her more time. Just as Gwen was about to leave, David stirred and called out to them, his voice groggy.“Dad! Mom! Are you guys quarreling again?” David’s drowsy eyes slowly opened.Gwen, who was halfway out of the room, stopped in her tracks.“Of course not, my darling. Why would we do such a thing?” Gwen quickly returned to Talon’s side and held his hand again.“Look, you see? Our hands are still together,” Gwen said as she raised their joined hands for David to see.Standing behind her, Talon felt a small flicker o

    Trying To Earn Her Forgiveness

    Gwen shed tears, unable to fully process what Talon was saying. A part of her wanted to believe him, but the years of pain, the countless nights mourning his supposed death, made it impossible for her to accept his words so easily. The reasonable explanation he offered made her angry further—how could something so plausible feel so impossible to believe?“Talon, you died a long time ago in my life,” Gwen finally said. She turned abruptly and left the place without looking back.“Gwen!”“Gwen!”Her father and Nate called after her, but she didn’t stop or respond.Talon stood frozen, his head bowed in sorrow. He knew reconciliation wouldn’t be easy, but he had to try. “I know she’s hurt... but I can’t give up now,” he murmured to himself. Back home, Gwen stormed through the door, slamming it shut. Little David, who was playing with his toys on the floor, looked up in excitement.“Mummy! Daddy’s back! Hurray! I thought he was gone forever, but now he’s here! Mummy, I want to see Dad!” D

    Talon’s boots hit the ground as he descended the ramp of the SSS-Class Apex craft. Behind him, six members of his crew followed, their postures alert and disciplined. The quiet hum of the landing pad was soon overtaken by murmurs and whispers from those gathered at the edge of the docking area.Gwen’s heart thudded painfully in her chest as she clutched her son, David, tighter. Her legs wavered between taking a step forward or retreating into the safety of her home.“Talon?” she whispered to herself, disbelief clouding her face.Nate, standing nearby, watched Gwen's reaction cautiously but turned his gaze to the mysterious man stepping forward. His well-kept military stance, the crew flanking him in perfect formation, and the way the guards at the Safe Zone hesitated to approach spoke volumes. This wasn’t just anyone—it was someone important.Gregg Landon furrowed his brows, recognizing the badge clipped onto Talon’s jacket, one he hadn’t seen in years. “That badge… but that’s…” He le

What's the problem now?" Talon didn’t quite understand what was going on.Salvador was in the workshop, the special area in the craft designated for repairs. Hearing the feedback from AVA, he wanted to run a diagnosis to get the full details of the issue.He raised his hands to activate the holographic projection of their craft on the table in his workshop—Apex, as it was named.He began to zoom in and dismantle some parts of the craft, identifying a section that was beaming red. Then he saw that one of their thrusters was damaged."Problem identified!"

When he reached Salvador at

    The Reunion

    **Safe Zone**Inside a room that resembled a military meeting room, there was a projector displaying a graphical representation. Inside stood a girl with bright, long red hair as she put on military gear, accompanied by about five others."What else do we need?" Gwen asked as she looked at the tablet handed to her by one of the men in the room."Miss Gwen, I think there is a shortage in our food supply. If this continues, there will be an uproar here in the Safe Zone," the man said, staring at the graphical projection on the wall."If we don't do anything about this, in a few weeks we could all die from starvation," he continued, explaining in detail."The only solution is to send a request for food from the neighboring camp, Vanguard," he referenced.Upon hearing that name, Gwen felt a surge of anger; it was the territory of her father, whom she had resented for years. He had always disapproved of her relationship with Talon and never blessed it before Talon was gone."We have been l

"There was a time at the academy" Salvador recounted the events of their academy days with Talon, to the extent that Talon felt embrassed a bit. “i can remember the very day he saw Gwen!” Salvador laughed, slapping his knee.Talon was a bit sober hearing that name.“Sal, if I may ask...Have you heard from Gwen?Before Salvador could reply, a sharp alarm blared.

Demonic signatures confirmed.]The crew hearing this sprang into action, their relaxed demeanor vanishing instantly.“Where are they coming from?” Talon demanded.[Three o’clock, closing fast]Talon’s hands flew over the controls, turning the craft into a defensive position.

    "Yeah, I was about to tell you, but—" Gwen immediately cut him short as she stated, "Cool! You wanted to leave just like that. I should've known that you aren't any different from him." Gwen finally let out as she attempted to leave, going out the door without even waiting for Talon to clarify things.Talon ran after her, holding her right arm. "No, it's not like that. Where I'm going is not a place I can bring you guys along. I didn't know how to explain it to you, but I promise that you will be safe with Master Feng. He will take proper care of you. You don't need to worry about me; I will be fine. And I promise that I won't stay that long," Talon tried to explain.Talon was unaware that Gwen had begun to develop feelings for him gradually. It might sound strange, but she had always liked one person—Talon. However, it wasn't this Talon, so her developing feelings for his doppelgänger was a bit strange."Leave me alone.

    I Must Learn From Master Feng

    Master Feng stood firm, staring down at Talon, who lay on the ground, weakened by the backlash from the transcendence energy. Talon, though physically drained, was in shock. It wasn't just the energy's backlash that startled him—he couldn't believe Master Feng had somehow accessed his Astral Plane. The realization hit him hard. “H-how did you...?” Talon stammered, struggling to find the words. He couldn't fathom how it had happened. Master Feng's was furious as he addressed Talon's reckless actions. “Why would you be so foolish as to attempt such a dangerous experiment? Do you not realize the disaster you could have unleashed if the energies from your Astral Plane had spilled into the real world?” He paused for a moment, his eyes narrowing. “Do you even understand the power of what you were trying to manipulate? You would have killed yourself—and endangered everyone around you.” Talon lowered his head, staring at his bloodstained hands, filled with regret. He had been warned by No
