A tall man approached them, and Richard immediately ran towards the man who entered. "Brother, you finally arrived," he said before looking at Max and pointing, "that man had the courage to try and take my woman," he grinned. Some in the crowd shouted, "Isn't he the strongest fighter of the Knuckle Gang?!" "Oh yes, he's often seen with Deric when they go out." "Uh-oh, and this kid here, he really provoked the cousin of the top fighter of the Knuckle Gang." Richard had a smug look on his face, "That's right, my cousin is the top fighter of the Knuckle Gang—" "Master, how are you? I never expected to see you again so soon," Kent kneeled on one knee and clasped his hands. "Stand up," Max calmly said, "looks like all your wounds are gone, huh?" He said with a smile. Kent stood up and nodded, "yes, I've recovered greatly and my strength has also increased, thanks to your help, master." "Mas--master?!" Richard was surprised, "brother, are you mistaken? Do you know him as so
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Rare Bone Cancer
The whole venue fell silent, Mr. Santos and Mr. Sotto were stunned by what they saw, and they felt a new sense of hope."Forgive us, Divine Doctor, for having doubts," Mr. Santos humbly asked for forgiveness, traces of regret visible on his face."This medicine is truly miraculous at 40%, what more with 100%?" Mr. Sotto exclaimed, eagerly anticipating."Please be seated, gentlemen," Cris said with a smile before giving the next patient their dose of medicine. The wealthy individuals in the venue watched carefully, not blinking or even breathing as each event unfolded. The effectiveness of the medicine depended on the duration and extent of damage to a person's body. After curing the last patient's lingering illness, Cris announced, "This tablet will be called the 'all cure medicine,' although it can heal any ailment, it is only available for purchase at Gonzales Pharmaceutical and Mr. Collins' store with a prescription. Next month, this medicine will be released to the market, and we

When Mr. Santos saw that his father had truly recovered, he couldn't help but shed a tear. "Father, are you okay?" he asked in disbelief, tears streaming down his face out of sheer joy."I am fine now, son. I no longer feel any pain. It's as if I have returned to my youth. I feel as strong as someone in their twenties. Your mother will be delighted to hear this good news," Mr. Santos' father said.Overwhelmed with joy, Mr. Santos embraced his father. "Dad, that's wonderful news. You are not only better, but stronger too," Mr. Santos happily remarked.His father nodded in agreement. "You are right, son. I am better now. You no longer need to worry about me. You can focus on your work in the company."Mr. Santos understood what his father meant. As most people knew, the Santos family was stable and thriving, but when the elderly former chairman fell seriously ill, Mr. Santos neglected the company, leading to leaks and failures in different parts of the business.Mr. Santos nodded before
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Sealed Scroll
The yapping man flew away after receiving a strong punch from Brad. His suit was crumpled, "oh, their suits are made of metal," Brad sneered.The man punched flew out of the venue, hitting a wall before collapsing, unconscious. Before others could react, Brad moved swiftly, leaving only the leader standing. He felt fear, as some parts of their suits were made of hard metal, resistant even to bullet shots, but for the casual punch from the man in front of him, it was like paper."You're a beast!" the leader shouted in fear.Brad shrugged before looking at Max, "boss, what should I do with this guy?""Put him in a room with his people before tying him up, wait for me after everyone's out," Max casually ordered.The leader realized that Max had the final say. He aimed his gun at Max before pulling the trigger, the sound of multiple gunshots echoed, several golden bullets flying towards Max. Brad smirked after seeing the scene, the leader laughed maniacally while shooting, "haha, you're d
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Hood Mark
In a private room, four men can be seen tied to the floor, with Brad leaning near the door keeping watch. The door opened, and three figures entered, one of them being Max, accompanied by the Santos father and son."Ask them why they like the life of old Santos," Max softly said to Brad after seeing the four men.Brad nodded before approaching the leader. The leader was visibly afraid when he noticed Brad coming closer. "What do you want?" the leader said, trembling."I am easy to talk to, one tooth for each wrong answer," Brad said before flashing a menacing grin."What do you mean?" the leader asked, swallowing nervously. He glanced at his companion but noticed that they were still unconscious."It's simple," Brad smiled before kneeling in front of the leader. "What is your purpose for causing trouble at the event?" he asked."We like the life of Mr. Santos," the leader nervously replied.Brad nodded, "Which of the two Mr. Santos?" "The old one, Jason," the leader answered.“Why do
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Timid but crazy
"Mr. Kelvin, we no longer need to delay this matter, you saw it yourself, next time it might be your family in danger," Max said.Kelvin knew how serious this situation was, he nodded, "Mr. Max, if you have the time, please join us today."Max looked at his watch, it was only two in the afternoon, then he turned to Brad, "You handle the explanation to Eric and the others."Brad nodded, "Yes boss!"Max nodded, then looked at Kelvin, "Let's go."After saying that, Kelvin nodded before leading him to his car, followed by their bodyguards. The car drove from San Fernando to Arayat. During the journey, Max was quiet, pondering on what 'scroll' and 'chosen one' were being referred to, it seemed like he had heard or read about it before but couldn't recall. Unable to figure it out, Max closed his eyes and remained silent until they arrived at the Santos villa....After over an hour of travel, the convoy entered a luxurious villa. "Mr. Max, please come in," Kelvin politely said, leading Max
The Enigmatic Son-in-law This Tattoo
"Tell me, who sent you?" Max asked with a grin."Oh, oh, looks like I'll need to use force after all. My attempt to kill the Santos father and son would have been successful if you hadn't interfered, kid. Even so, it doesn't matter anymore. Two old men and a kid, I don't need to exert my full strength on insects like you," he arrogantly stated, referring to the three as if they were mere ants.Max looked at the Santos father and son, asking, "How long has this man been in your villa?" The man was ignored."He's been here a while, three months after the scroll fell into our hands," Kelvin said.Max nodded, "It seems you didn't consider this man a spy."Kelvin shook his head, "No, he didn't raise any suspicions in the past months, except for today's incident with the cake," he said, reflecting on the past."Wait," Jason recalled something, "I once saw this man in my garden, he had a jug with him. I didn't know what he was up to, so I let it be. That was also the day I was bitten by a go
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Overwhelming Power
They entered an underground passage located in Jason's room, behind his wardrobe. Max did not expect that the secret passage would be so carefully hidden. They walked down the stairs, and Max noticed that the surroundings were filled with food supplies that were long past their expiration date."Based on the design and items placed here, it seems that this underground passage was established before the entire villa," speculated Max.Jason nodded in agreement, "Mr. Max is right. This underground area existed before the villa was built. My father used this as a hiding place during past wars when he was still alive. We sought refuge here during the last war," he explained.Max nodded, "There must be other passages leading to this place besides the old man's room."Jason smiled, "Mr. Max is quite sharp. You're correct again. This secret passage leads to our family's private land. It takes about an hour by car to reach the other end. We use this route when we need to transport large items

Proposal
As admiration filled the room, a sudden outburst shattered the moment."Impossible!" Bubbles screamed, standing abruptly. She pointed a trembling finger at Max. "You? You're really the Chairman?"Max simply smiled and shrugged.Bubbles collapsed into her seat, her mind unable to process the truth. "It's over…" she muttered under her breath, completely shaken.Daniel and Eugine wore identical horrified expressions. The realization hit them like a freight train—they had offended Max, and everyone had seen it. Of all the people they could have belittled, why did it have to be him? Of all the people in this grand event, why was he the Chairman? A man they had underestimated, a man whose background they never even considered. No wonder… His unwavering confidence now made perfect sense.Alfred smirked and spoke up, his voice laced with amusement. "Now do you understand why Alexa once said that Max himself is his own backup?"At that moment, everything clicked for them. The memories, the sub
The Man Behind
Whispers spread like wildfire across the ballroom. Some guests exchanged incredulous glances, questioning whether the man standing before them was truly the mysterious chairman. Others furrowed their brows, murmuring about how secretive this supposed leader had been until now.Then, breaking the tension, a man approached the standing figure, offering a polite smile. "Chairman, it's an honor to finally meet you," he said, introducing himself as a representative from a prominent tech company. With a respectful bow, he extended his business card.Before the crowd could react further, another guest boldly voiced the question on everyone's mind. "Are you really the mysterious chairman?"The man scratched the back of his head, looking slightly embarrassed. "Huh? Me?" He let out a small, awkward chuckle. "No, no. I just work here. I was fixing some wires at the hotel earlier, but when the lights suddenly went out, I sat here for a bit. Now that the event's started, I should be heading out—my
The Mysterious Chairman
With no other choice, Bubbles and her group reluctantly returned to their seats. They knew better than to cause a scene now that the event was about to begin. Before turning away, Bubbles shot Max a sharp glare, pointing a finger at him. "This isn't over until you apologize," she huffed, stomping back to her seat with a pout. Eugine and Daniel followed her, their expressions mixed with irritation and curiosity.As the crowd settled down, a distinguished-looking man confidently walked onto the stage. He was tall, well-groomed, and carried himself with the poise of a seasoned professional. Dressed in an impeccably tailored suit, his presence commanded attention. His name was Theodore Wright, a renowned host in high-profile elite gatherings.With a charming yet authoritative smile, he took center stage and spoke into the microphone."Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed guests from the most distinguished families and business empires, welcome to this grand evening." His deep voice carried effo
Pretended to be Poor
Alexa smiled calmly before speaking. "How could Max have done it on purpose when we were in the middle of a conversation?" She then turned to Bubbles, her gaze sharp but amused. "Are you saying my husband has eyes on the back of his head?"Bubbles fell silent for a moment, caught off guard, but quickly regained her composure. "He still did it on purpose!" she insisted. "Max knew Daniel was passing by and deliberately stretched to spill the wine!"Then, with a sneer, she added, "Ms. Alexa, you don't belong with someone like Max. Your beauty and status don't match with a piece of trash like him."At that moment, Eugine stood from his seat and walked toward the scene, his voice dripping with arrogance. "Bubbles is right, Ms. Alexa." He straightened his expensive designer suit, making sure everyone was watching him. "A woman of your caliber—someone with an outstanding background, grace, and influence—should not be with someone like Max, a man with no real lineage or worth."Alexa's lips c
Talent Show
Daniel smirked, swirling the red wine in his glass as he walked toward Max's group. His movements were slow, deliberate—his eyes casually scanning left and right, as if he owned the place.At the table, Eugine's grin widened in anticipation, while Bubbles, barely containing her excitement, let out a small chuckle."Someone's about to get drenched in wine," she whispered.Alfred, on the other hand, sighed, keeping his gaze fixed on Daniel. Something felt off.As Daniel finally reached Max's back, his smirk deepened. He raised the glass, prepared to tip the wine over Max's head—PAK!Max casually scratched his head, his elbow knocking Daniel's arm at just the right moment. The glass slipped, and the entire drink spilled onto Daniel's own suit."Agh! My designer suit!" Daniel shouted in shock.At the table, Bubbles gasped, covering her mouth in disbelief. Eugine's smirk froze, while Alfred simply remained expressionless.All eyes turned toward the commotion. Max slowly turned around, bli

Stepping forward as the Chairman
Caleb's eyes fluttered open, his vision adjusting to the unfamiliar ceiling above him. The memory of Max's punch hit him like a thunderclap. His eyes widened in shock."Damn it!" he gasped, suddenly bolting upright—CRACK.A sharp pain shot through his lower back, making him yelp. "Agh! My back!" He clutched his waist, his face contorted in agony.It was then that he realized something even worse. His once-powerful, youthful body… was gone. He was back to his true, aged self. Not only that, but his strength was completely drained, leaving him as weak as an ordinary human.Caleb's confusion deepened when he noticed the bright, refined surroundings. His palace was nowhere in sight. His brows knitted together as he scanned the room, his mind racing.Then, his gaze landed on Max.Sitting calmly at a tea table, sipping from an elegant cup, Max smirked at him."Yo."A chill ran down Caleb's spine. He clenched his fists, his nostrils flaring as he pointed at Max."YOU—!"Before he could fini
Making him my Servant
As their fists remained locked, Caleb laughed, dark energy pulsating from his body like tendrils of smoke."Is this really your full power, Maximus?" he taunted. "You feel weaker than usual. Did you skip lunch or something?"Max smirked, unfazed. "How could I eat lunch, Caleb? You decided to cause chaos in Pampanga first thing in the morning."Caleb chuckled. "Ah, my bad. I forgot you had cooking duties."Max sighed dramatically. "See? This is all your fault. And for that, I'll make sure you serve me once this is over."Before Caleb could respond, they both vanished, their figures flickering like lightning.BOOM!They reappeared mid-air, their fists colliding once more, sending out shockwaves of golden and black energy. The force shattered nearby stone pillars, and the ground beneath them cracked from the sheer intensity of their clash.CRACK! BOOM!Each exchange was blindingly fast, their forms barely visible to an ordinary eye. Max launched a high kick—Caleb blocked it with his fore
Battle of Transformation
Caleb laughed with pride, his voice echoing off the dark chamber's walls. "Magnificent, isn't it?" He spread his arms wide, as if presenting his greatest masterpiece. "I've been working on this little experiment for years. It doesn't even have a proper name yet, and you—" His grin stretched wider, eyes gleaming with cruel excitement. "You, Maximus, will be the first to witness its power firsthand."Max's expression darkened, his jaw tightening. "Tch. You really have a habit of pissing me off, Caleb."Before he could say anything more—"Attack!"Caleb's voice boomed like thunder, and without hesitation, Alexa lunged.She moved like a phantom—fast, precise, and merciless. There was no hesitation in her strike, no warmth in her usually expressive eyes. They were empty, void of life.Max's instincts screamed at him to block, to counter, to fight back—but he couldn't. Instead, he sidestepped just in time, feeling the sharp gust of wind as Alexa's fist barely missed his face."Tch." His eye
