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!" Ramil sh
Kim smiled before rushing forward, he disappeared from his standing position and was not seen by the spectators, he launched a powerful punch before smiling, confident that this punch could crush Max's face.Max did not move and waited for Kim's punch to land, standing calmly with both hands behind his back."Is he trying to commit suicide?" a person in the audience exclaimed.Ramil's uncle smiled, "Out of fear, he couldn't move."Bang!Max was hit by Kim's punch before flying, Kim smiled before rushing again and kicked Max upwards, Max flew upwards and Kim was not satisfied, he continued to kick and punch Max while in mid-air, repeating the beating he gave to Kent and not letting Max's body fall to the ground.Some spectators at the coliseum closed their eyes and shook their heads, thinking that Max would suffer the same fate as Kent at the hands of Kim.Lindon chuckled, "Give up, the strongest fighter of the Knuckle Gang has been defeated. What can an inexperienced young kid do?" he
After speaking with the other elderly leaders of the gang, Oliver implemented that starting today, the Axe Gang has the right to lead all gangs when necessary. It is also clear that this privilege will not be used for the impairment of the majority.Max and Oliver headed to the private room of the Axe Gang, with Robert guarding the door alongside four Axe Gang guards. Inside, the old Oliver and Max were in conversation."Do you want to know how a retired soldier like me ended up in a gang?" Oliver asked with a smile.Max nodded, interested to know more.Oliver smiled, "It all started five years ago, after the last war, after the country had achieved peace. There were areas in Pampanga filled with crime, and to combat this, I thought of forming a group called the Sword Clan, symbolizing how one person defeated three nations and maintained peace.""I did this to maintain peace in the city, but the city was too vast. I decided to share my plan with two friends, and they took over other p
After the tournament and bidding farewell to the other Gang Leaders, it was observed that Jet and Kent were in good condition. They expressed their gratitude to Max, and their respect for him grew. In truth, there were no deep-seated conflicts among the gangs, and they all understood the purpose behind the formation of the gang: not to compete, but to unite and prevent the turmoil happening in the city.Max left the venue and went home around five in the afternoon. He saw Alexa dressed up alongside her mother as if they were going somewhere. Alexa was wearing a tight black dress, showcasing the beautiful contour of her body, along with her cold and captivating face that could attract countless men without effort."Mom, where are you going?" Max asked in surprise upon seeing them dressed like this at this hour.Alicia hesitated to speak because she only told her daughter that they would have dinner outside without mentioning that they would meet someone else. "I just wanted to treat my
When Max spoke, a smile froze on Tom's face. This wasn't the outcome he had hoped for. Alexa and Alicia were equally surprised to hear Max speak. It was unexpected for them. Max casually spoke in Italian while mentioning the dishes on the menu, "My dear, what do you want? Would you like pasta or meat?" Max asked before smiling.Alexa regained her composure before smiling and replied, "Whatever you think is delicious.""Alright, try this Chicken Scarpariello, Italian Wedding Risotto, Florentine Butter Chicken, and then Spaghetti," Max said with a smile.Alexa nodded, not expecting Max to really read the menu. Tom was annoyed to see that Max had ordered smoothly and seemed like a regular at the place."Brother, Aunt Alicia said you work at your friend's company. I just want to know what you do at your friend's company?" Tom asked.Max thought for a moment, "It's simple, I just do various things at the company.""Like cleaning the restroom, taking out the trash, and sweeping the floor?"
Bang!Before Tom could approach Alexa, the door was forcefully kicked."Who?!" Alicia shouted before turning to the door.Tom also turned and saw a familiar face, grinning. "Now that Alexa is asleep, I don't need to pretend anymore," he arrogantly said."Max! What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be working?" Alicia was annoyed at Max's sudden arrival.Max looked coldly at Alicia, "I respect you because you are my wife's mother. I never thought you would be so shameless as to sell him to someone else!"Half an hour had passed, Alexa had texted Max that she would be coming home early, so Max hurried home to accompany Alexa before she left the country. However, he did not expect to encounter such a scene. Before entering, he heard Tom's voice and realized something was wrong, so he quickly entered and kicked the door."What can a trash like you do in front of me? If I want to dominate your wife, can you do anything in front of me?" Tom arrogantly said. "Max, leave here if you
In a luxurious hotel where a charity auction organized by Gonzales was being held, various wealthy individuals could be seen attending from within and outside the city. They heard about the rare medicine being auctioned off at this event. Most of these wealthy individuals were elderly and had illnesses; they wanted to try to obtain the Divine Pill to test their luck."Son, do you see these influential people from inside and outside the city? We need to be careful around them, we must not offend them," Blaine said to Max in a soft voice.Max nodded without saying anything. Blaine had a look of wonder on his face, "But I still don't know why the Gonzales family is inviting us. Our family is just second-rate."Max smiled, "Father, I once met the old Gonzales at Crownguard Group and he found out that you also run a pharmaceutical company. Perhaps he thought of inviting you because of this?"Blaine shook his head, "No, that's too shallow a reason. There are many more well-known pharmaceuti
"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
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
