Talon stood on the fighting podium, clad in his customary black leather combat outfit and combat boots. Meanwhile, the Golden Queen was putting on a complete golden crop top that exposed her belly button, along with golden shorts that reached halfway above her knees. Talon noticed her curvaceous hips and pointed features on her chest, but he remained indifferent, devoid of any emotions.During Talon's training at the Nexus Lab, one of the lessons was to avoid easily succumbing to allure from the opposite gender. Therefore, it was rare for anyone to entice Talon with seductive attire. The only person who had managed to capture his heart was the girl he had saved five years ago.From Talon's vantage point, he observed the sizable audience present at the Fighting Arena. He had never been in the presence of such a large crowd before. ~Now, the long-awaited fight begins. We are about to witness the epic battle between StormBlade and the Golden Queen~
The impact of the punch sent shockwaves through the Golden Queen's body, causing her to instinctively clutch her chest and take a few steps back, her breath momentarily stolen away.*Wooooooh!* The crowd erupted in astonishment~Unbelievable! The Golden Queen, a formidable force in the Fighting Arena, had never experienced such a blow, especially from a mere +EE-Class Ranker~Talon then materialized on the fighting podium, a distance away from the momentarily stunned Queen, he took a bow, as he playfully said,"I apologize, my lady. Please don't lay the blame on my poor Shadow duplicates. I've consistently cautioned them against being preverts, but be rest assured, they will be appropriately disciplined after this fight," Talon conveyed with a bow. "However, make sure to properly cover yourself before engaging in battle with men. While I may lack interest, others might not share the same sentiment," Talon chuckled as his gaze humorously fixed on
Talon, consumed by an overwhelming fury, gazed upon the defenseless girl sprawled on the floor. To his astonishment, the face of the girl he had saved years ago replaced that of the Golden Queen. The delicate features of his former savior took the place of the majestic Golden mask she had worn.Hovering in midair, Talon prepared to unleash his most powerful attack, but he suddenly hesitated. A moment of clarity washed over him, revealing that anger had taken control of his actions. His daggers crackled with concentrated Arcane Energy, swelling like a spirit of a mighty dragon. However, he swiftly retracted the energy back into his body, choosing not to harm his vulnerable opponent.The dragon-like energy that had formed around his daggers dissipated, returning within him as he skillfully rolled along the ground, narrowly evading the Golden Queen's advance. Rising to his feet, he turned his back to her, but a surge of pain overwhelmed him, causing him to cough up bl
Talon was now outside the Martial Center as he stood smiling like never before."Now this more than enough to take care of myself, I think I should find a place to stay. How many mintues do I have for the upgrade " Talon asked Nolat.[Upgrade Countdown 00:00:00:40:35:30!]"I need to go into an hotel.

Talon, now standing a few steps away from the pool. He collected his towel on a nearby rack and wrapped it around his body. Then he glanced back at the once crystal-clear pool, but it was now transformed into a murky abyss, black as raw graphite. "I think I'll have to call customer services to clean this up," Talon remarked. Putting the pool incident behind him, he made his way towards his bedroom.In a swift motion, Talon retrieved a set of clothes from his personal space and swiftly dressed himself. Now fully clothed, he proceeded to his egg-shaped bed, where he assumed a seated position with his legs crossed. "Nolat! Show me my status…it's been a while," Talon requested.[•Status Display!•][★Name-Talon Stormbane★][★Status- High-Born★][★Divine Sentinel★]------------------------[★Divine Shadow- D-Class Rank★][★Heavenly Artificers- D-Class Rank★][★Holy Druid-+EE-Class Rank★][★Holy Mage- +EE-Class Rank★][★S
Talon, previously positioned near the elevator in the dining hall, eager to retreat to his room, found himself abruptly halted by the unexpected obstruction of Danny and Laura in his path."Kneel, bow your head to the ground, and beg for mercy," proclaimed Laura's boyfriend, Danny, strategically blocking Talon's path with an air of authority."Danny! He wouldn't just kneel and beg for mercy; he would also compensate for the bag," Laura interjected, escalating the tension with her added stipulation, injecting an extra layer of complexity into the confrontation."You people always think you can take advantage of someone who is poor. Too bad I'm not!" Talon confidently smiled, his with a mysterious assurance as he locked his eyes with his adversaries."Me? Go down on my knees and beg for mercy," Talon theatrically emphasized, punctuating his words with a dramatic thump to his chest."Besides, how much is your bag worth?" Talon inquired, casting a
"Before I foolishly hand over any money without evidence, we must sign an Eternal Debt contract. Don't worry, I have it right here," Talon stated, snapping his fingers. Three golden papers materialized, which he handed to Danny and Laura.~Contract of Eternal Debt~This binding contract is made on the ____ day of ________ in the year ____, between:Talon Stormblade, hereafter referred to as the "Purchaser"AndLaura Gilman, hereafter referred to as the "Vendor"WHEREBY IT IS AGREED:1.

The Vendor and Danny Silverhair therefore jointly owe the Purchaser the sum of three million six hun
Laura stood closely beside Danny, her surprise mirroring his as the contract took immediate effect without wasting a single moment. Thoughts raced through her mind, and she couldn't help but think, "I need to escape from here."However, as Laura made a move to leave, a sudden chain materialized, binding her hands together and preventing her escape. Danny, witnessing this, found himself on the ground, kneeling in a pleading manner. "Sir, I have no money on me. I beg you, have mercy," he pleaded.Laura, determined to maintain her pride, tried to lift Danny from the ground. She had always been the one to push him beyond his limits, even in the face of adversity. Even when Talon entered the picture, Danny had hoped to avoid any trouble. But he knew Laura too well. If he didn't support her, she would undoubtedly leave him, and that was something he couldn't bear. Danny felt like Laura's puppet, always under her control.Disregarding Laura's attempts, Danny push
