"What?!" Max suddenly exclaimed, surprised.

Eric chuckled, "My beloved granddaughter, do you like him?" he asked.

Eliza blushed like a cute little girl, "He's handsome, grandpa, and very humble. He's not like other men who only know how to have fun. He also saved my life, so my life belongs to him now," she shyly said.

"Sorry, but I'm already married," Max quickly replied.

Eliza frowned before thinking, "In that case, you can be my big brother."

Max nodded, "Okay, my little sister."

Eliza happily approached Max, hugged him, and said, "I'll just call you brother Max, thank you for saving my life." She happily let go of Max and sat beside her grandpa.

Max didn't pay much attention to this as he only saw Eliza as a little girl.

Eric laughed, "I'll just call you Max too, because now you're the brother of my grandchild and since you're the benefactor, you're also part of the Gonzales family. From now on, no one will dare to harm you in the whole of Pampanga," Eric laughed happily and then

    "Tch! This old man," Eric said before standing up from the chair."Brother Max, you are going to watch an exciting match!" Eliza said with a smile."What does that mean?" Max asked, not understanding. 'Someone is causing trouble, and there's still an exciting match?' he thought.Eliza did not answer but showed a strange smile, "Let's follow grandpa," she said before standing up and pulling Max to follow outside the villa.Outside, they saw an old man with a long white beard standing proudly with his hands behind his back, next to him a big man with a large body beating the Gonzales guards.Upon seeing the guards lying down and writhing in pain, Eric couldn't help but frown, "This old dog Jimmy Cruz really doesn't know the word defeat," Eric said as he saw the big man with Jimmy.Upon seeing Eric emerging, Jimmy grinned, "This time, you will be defeated. Do you see your dozen guards? They are no match for my new pet," he boasted, pointing at the heavily armored guards on the ground."W

    Bang!Adrian was struck hard in the stomach, followed by a crack as his bones broke when Reynald kicked his leg. Adrian flew to the other side of the ring, writhing in pain on the ground, unable to breathe, his bones shattered, causing him to roll in agony, unable to stand.Reynald snapped his neck, "Sigh, I would have let you hit me two more times, but I lost interest after you saw my true strength," he arrogantly said as he slowly walked towards the writhing Adrian in pain. "Brother Adrian!" Eliza shouted fearfully, before glancing at Max with surprise. "You, brother Max, did you know with just a glance that brother Adrian would lose in three moves? Do you know martial arts?" she asked.Cris and Eric also looked at Max, surprised like Eliza. "Max, do you really know martial arts?" Eric asked in astonishment. Max smiled, "I have some knowledge," he casually said."Give up this fight, he might be saved," Max calmly said.Eric nodded, "Stop the fight, Jimmy, stop your artist, I surre

    Eliza shouted with joy upon witnessing Max's impressive performance,"Amazing!".Eric and Crist caught sight of Max in a new light. "This person truly surprises me. How many more secrets is he hiding?" Eric wondered."Incredible master, not only in medicine but also formidable in martial arts," Crist added.Max glanced at the bewildered Jimmy, "Don't forget my shares," he coolly remarked.Jimmy broke into a cold sweat upon feeling Max's chilling gaze, "Yes, yes, I'll do it right away," he nodded obediently like a dog.Exiting the ring, Max approached Adrian, "Master, the bone fracture and internal injuries are severe; he needs immediate surgery," Cris informed."No need," Max said before producing a tablet, "Take this," he instructed Adrian.Adrian took the medicine and as soon as it touched his lips, it immediately dissolved, and he felt a warmth flowing through his veins. He also felt the relief spreading throughout his whole body and damaged inner tissues.With naked eyes, they coul

    Robert looked back and saw two people entering, he grinned, "What is the purpose of the visit of the top gang and his minions?"Deric grinned, "I just want to see how much the returning leader has changed," he said while assessing Robert. He put his hand on his white beard before nodding, "not bad.""Old Deric, is this your top fighter? I never thought you'd recruit someone with such abilities," Robert said as he evaluated Kent.Deric laughed, "Peace should be upheld, I'm just here to warn you. The Sword Gang has a new leader who wants to win this battle to raise his prestige, and besides, he has a hidden agenda.""What happened to the wise Oliver?" Robert asked.Deric sighed, "It's been months since the old Oliver disappeared and suddenly a new leader was appointed. He's one of the four guards of the Sword Gang. The disappearance of Oliver is unknown, but in this battle, you are the target of the Sword Gang because they see you as a threat.""A long-standing gang was scared by a gang

    Robert stood in shock, not expecting the merciless and brutal attack unleashed by the Sword Gang players. Only Max remained calm, anticipating this turn of events due to the abnormal flow of energy in the bodies of the Sword Gang fighters. The leader of the Sword Gang laughed loudly, "Your fighters are weak, like they haven't eaten," he arrogantly remarked. "Such arrogance!" Robert shouted before glancing at another fighter of his before entering the arena. Max approached a fighter who had flown out before being examined and then returned to Robert, "Don't worry, his condition is not severe." Robert nodded, "This Sword Gang is ruthless, wanting to kill with a single blow, truly lawless!" he exclaimed in anger towards the Sword Gang leader. The Sword Gang leader laughed loudly, tauntingly saying, "Killing blow? That's just a normal kick," he grinned, "your fighters are simply weak," he added before laughing. "Lindon! I don't know what you're planning, but I'm telling you, you won'

    The Sword Gang fighter spotted a figure casually blocking his step."Your opponent has surrendered, but that won't stop me. Now, I shall show you the mercilessness," the man coolly said as he escorted his struggling Junior out of the arena."Rest up, he will pay for what he did," the man said before ascending the arena.No one objected to the last fighter of the Arnis Gang climbing up, so the battle promptly began."I did not kill a nameless fighter," the fighter of the Arnis Gang asked before cracking his bones in his hands and neck. "Daryel," his opponent said emotionlessly. "Remember, my name is Jet Dickson, the man who will make you paralyzed," Jet coldly said before launching an attack. Daryel was surprised by Jet's sudden assault, 'he's fast,' he thought, his eyes widened, trying to follow Jet's movements.'Damn it,' he only crossed his arms in a defensive form because he couldn't catch Jet's movements due to his extreme speed. Suddenly, he faced Jet and received a strong pun

    Kent was stunned by Kim's sudden change, but his eyes widened when Kim appeared in front of him the next moment. He raised his arm to block Kim's next move. Kim grinned as she saw Kent defending himself, not attacking but disappearing in front of Kent. Kent searched for Kim using his eyes, raised his defense for Kim's next step, scanned around but couldn't find Kim until he had a realization. 'Above!' He exclaimed, widening his eyes before looking up. He saw Kim launching a powerful kick, a terrifying smile on her face. Kent raised his arm to protect his head, but he didn't expect to be hit in the chest. With the strong attack, Kent flew like a rocket from the force of the kick. "Argh!" he cried out as Kim's powerful kick landed on his chest, causing him to fall heavily and lose a front tooth, his mouth bleeding.The spectators were astonished and fearful, witnessing such a transformation with their naked eyes, as if they were in a fantasy happening only on TV."How fierce!"

    "Zoren!" Sean yelled as he watched Zoren suddenly collapse and vomit blood. Fear and confusion swept over Zoren's men, their faces pale and their bodies trembling as they took cautious steps back.Max walked forward with a calm expression, his footsteps echoing in the silence. He crouched slightly and delivered two sharp slaps to Zoren's face.Slap! Slap!The force was just enough to jolt Zoren awake. He groaned softly, blinking in disorientation as he held his reddened cheeks. When his vision cleared, he saw Max standing over him, a faint smile playing on his lips.Zoren's eyes widened in realization. His expression shifted rapidly from confusion to fear. Without hesitation, he dropped to his knees, bowing his head low."B-Boss! Master!" Zoren stammered, his voice shaking with genuine fear and submission."What?" Sean blurted out, utterly dumbfounded by the sight. He took a step closer, his expression filled with disbelief. "Zoren, what are you doing? Why are you kneeling?"The rest

    Zoren's glare could have burned a hole through Max, but it only seemed to amuse him further. Max let out a relaxed sigh, pointing the branch at Zoren like a teacher scolding a stubborn child."So, are we done here, or do you want me to embarrass you even more?"Zoren clenched his fists, but there was hesitation in his eyes now. His men groaned on the ground behind him, holding their bruises and glaring at Max with disbelief and fear.Sean, watching from the sidelines, swallowed hard, his earlier excitement replaced by unease."Y-You're a freak…" Sean muttered under his breath.Max grinned, resting the branch on his shoulder. "No, Sean. I'm just someone you shouldn't have messed with."Sean's face twisted in anger as he laughed maniacally, trying to muster his courage. He took a step forward as if to charge, but his confidence faltered when his eyes darted to Zoren's men writhing in pain on the ground. His movements stilled, his earlier bravado replaced with uncertainty.Zoren let out

    You're Still a Long Way

    Max stood still, a faint smirk on his face as the first thug rushed at him, throwing a wild punch aimed directly at his jaw. With a slight tilt of his head, Max avoided the blow entirely, his feet never leaving their spot.The thug blinked, confused at how effortlessly his attack was dodged. Another man immediately charged in, this time aiming a kick at Max's side. Max merely shifted his torso, letting the kick slice through empty air."Is this all you've got?" Max asked, his tone light and mocking.Frustrated grunts came from the group as another thug swung a metal rod, aiming to hit Max's shoulder. Without breaking a sweat, Max leaned backward, the rod missing him by mere inches. The attacker stumbled forward, thrown off balance, and Max didn't even glance at him."Hey, careful with that thing," Max teased, his voice laced with sarcasm. "You might hurt someone. Maybe even yourself."The thugs exchanged nervous glances but steeled themselves. Two came at him simultaneously—one aiming

    After resolving the commotion, several students approached Max, expressing their admiration and gratitude."Thank you for standing up for us," one said earnestly."That was amazing! You were so cool back there!" added another, their voice filled with awe.Max simply nodded, offering them a small smile before turning to check on Rose and Lily, who had just come down to meet him.Rose and Lily hurried over, concern and curiosity etched on their faces."How did you get there so fast?" Rose asked, still puzzled by Max's sudden appearance earlier.Max shrugged nonchalantly. "I came down earlier and waited for the right moment. You just didn't notice because everyone's attention was on Oscar," he explained casually.Lily nodded, impressed. "Oh, so that's how it was. You're amazing, though," she said, her admiration clear as a slight blush crept onto her cheeks.In truth, Max couldn't reveal that his movements were faster than an ordinary human's, making it seem like he had teleported. He si

    The thugs regrouped, their expressions a mix of frustration and embarrassment. Oscar barked at them angrily, "What are you waiting for? Get him!"One of the thugs muttered under his breath, "Easier said than done…" but they all hesitated before reluctantly charging at Max again.This time, Max tilted his head slightly, as if deciding on something. Then, with a swift movement, he sidestepped the first thug, delivered a light tap to the back of his head, and followed up with a playful smack on the thug's behind using the thug's own bat.The thug froze mid-motion, his eyes wide in shock. "What the—did he just…?"Before he could finish, Max spun around to face the second thug, dodged his clumsy attack, and gave him the same treatment—a loud smack to the rear.The sound echoed across the courtyard, followed by stunned silence and then an eruption of laughter from the students watching from the buildings above."H-he's spanking them!" one student burst out, clutching their stomach.Even Ros

    Before Rose's tears could fall and before Lily's anger could fully erupt, they both froze at the sight in front of them. Their expressions shifted to one of shock and disbelief.Oscar noticed the change on their faces and assumed they were overcome with fear. With a smug grin, he turned to look at the teacher, expecting a lifeless body. But as he turned, he froze in place.Standing in front of the teacher was a man, holding the baseball bat with his hand. It hadn't landed on the teacher. Instead, it had been stopped effortlessly, as if it weighed nothing.Oscar's eyes widened in shock. "Who the hell are you?!" he barked, his voice laced with confusion and anger.The thug who had swung the bat staggered back, fear plastered on his face. He knew how sturdy that bat was—yet the man holding it didn't seem fazed at all. Before anyone could react further, the man clenched his fist and crushed the bat into splinters."W-what?! How is that possible?!" one student whispered in disbelief."Wait

    From the front doors of the campus, a large figure emerged, stepping purposefully into the chaos. It was one of the PE teachers, a man with a stout build and a noticeable belly, but his stern expression and commanding presence made it clear he wasn't someone to be trifled with. "What's going on here?!" he bellowed, his voice echoing across the courtyard. Oscar glanced at the teacher with mild disinterest, a smug grin plastered on his face. "And who's this?" he mocked. "The campus babysitter?" Ignoring the jab, the teacher stopped a few feet away from Oscar's group, crossing his arms. "You're on private property, causing a disturbance, and endangering students. Leave now, or I'll call security and the police." Oscar chuckled, leaning lazily against his bike. "You think I'm scared of you or your little threats? Nah. We're here for Rose, and we're not leaving until she comes down." The teacher's eyes hardened, his patience wearing thin. "Violence has no place here. You're tresp

    Max, Rose, and Lily returned to their classroom for their next lecture. The students filed in, taking their seats, while Max casually walked to his desk, drawing subtle glances from almost everyone.As the professor prepared to start the lesson, a few of their classmates approached Max, their curiosity evident."Hey, Max," one girl began, shyly tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. "Where did you transfer from?"Max looked up, his expression calm yet inviting. "A small town in the province," he replied with an easy smile.Another girl chimed in, her cheeks slightly pink. "Is it true you're on a scholarship? That must mean you're really smart!"Max chuckled softly, shaking his head. "I just try my best, that's all."The casual humility in his voice only seemed to endear him further to the girls, who exchanged excited whispers as they walked back to their seats, their faces flushed and hearts racing.Meanwhile, Lily slumped in her seat, her chin resting on her hand. She glanced at Ma

    However, several moments passed, and Lily still didn't feel the impact of the punch. Slowly, she opened her eyes, only to see Sean's fist mere inches from her face, frozen in mid-air. Her gaze shifted, and there was Max, holding Sean's wrist effortlessly, his expression calm yet resolute.Badum!Lily's heart skipped a beat as she took in the sight of Max. He looked undeniably handsome, his calm demeanor contrasting sharply with Sean's rage. ‘He's so hot,' she thought, her hand reflexively clutching her chest to steady her suddenly erratic heartbeat.Max sighed softly. "You're really going to pick a fight with a woman?" he said coolly before pushing Sean's arm back with a controlled motion.Sean stumbled backward, clutching his wrist with a mix of irritation and shock. His face twisted into a snarl as he barked at Max, "Mind your own business!"Max tilted his head slightly, smirking. "Business? I didn't realize you had any worth minding," he teased, his words striking a nerve.The insu
