Lily scoffed, "What you're thinking isn't correct. I'm telling you, you'll regret letting go of Clean Water Company. I'm going to make it to the very top!"

Nicholas Gray glared at Ava with displeasure. "Ava Sharp, you are totally wrong. With Gray Company making new investments in Clean Water Company, I think it will only go up, never down."

Alex stared at Nicholas in disbelief. When people tried hard to avoid trouble, why did he insist on entering Clean Water Company, the source of all tragedy? Are you idiot?

Alex could only shake his head.

Ava secretly looked at Alex's face and smiled. "Well, if the Gray family wants to enter Clean Water, I can only congratulate you on your success. I might even give you a free lunch. What do you think?"

"If it's free," Jasmine added, "of course, I'll take it."

She called for the manager, "Give me all of your expensive food here! Bring me the most expensive wine!" She already planned to call for a hundred thousand dollars wine.

    As Alex walked down from the hotel to the entrance, there were about twenty private special forces, appearing like high-rank mercenaries with complete bulletproof bodies and weapons.The leader, named Joe, had a scar over his eye and an aura of danger around him. “Miss Ava, we will guard you and Mr. Alex to the location. Please feel at ease; we will hunt whoever dares to kidnap Miss Eva.”Alex’s eyebrow raised, “Do I need to be guarded too?”Ava stared deeply at Alex, “You are important to me; of course, you need protection.”He couldn’t say anything against the care that Ava gave, so he sat beside Ava in the car, and they went to the address, which was outside the city, near the jungle.“No need to worry,” Ava said to comfort Alex, as his face was serious and sharp, looking around, ready for any action.“They are the special forces of Sharp Company. They are stronger than many fighters, especially Joe, the leader. He has a lot of experience in war as a mercenary before we made him th

    Joe stepped forward, "I don’t know who you are, but do you think you will get it very easily as I'm already here?"At the same time, all twenty special forces members took out their guns and aimed at each of the kidnappers."Now our guns are pointing at each other," Joe smirked. "You shoot us, we shoot you. How does that sound? You die, I die. No one gets anything.""What do you want?" the kidnapper leader asked."How about we fight one on one? You choose five of your best people, and I choose five of our best. If we win, you let Eva go, but if you win, Ava will sign over not only half of the Sharp family business to you but the whole Sharp family business to you. No one needs to die!" Joe suggested.Ava's face turned shocked, "Joe, how can you make a decision for me!""Challenge accepted," said the leader, not backing down.Joe stared at Ava, "I am hired to protect your safety. At this time, I think this match is much better than shooting each other, where all of us will die and I fa

    Alex walked into the ground simple arena, still carrying his guns. His opponent, already in the arena, stared at him and said, "Don't you think you need to take off your gun in the fighting arena?""What? Are you still worried I will use gun with all your friends here?" Alex sneered. "I won't need my gun to defeat you.""Everyone, if he takes out his gun, just shoot him down!" the opponent yelled."No worries," the others responded.The opponent smiled and showcased his muscles. "It's great that you know your position, but sorry I will kill you here.""Why?" Alex smiled, still calm. "Is it because I'm not one of your people, so you won't pretend to fight with me?"The opponent rushed to kick Alex, but Alex evaded by stepping back. "All of you are really not good at hiding your killing intent, as I am an outsider," he said."Whatever," the opponent snarled, rushing to hit Alex again.This time, Alex had seen enough and decided it was time to execute his plan. As the man struck, Alex ev

    "Arthur Sharp," Ava sighed, her voice heavy with concern as she was on the front seat car. "Are you sure my uncle is trying to kill us?"Alex glanced at her beautiful face and replied, "I’m not really sure of anything right now, but I am certain there’s a traitor in your family who wants you both dead. It just so happens that the people trying to kill you are your uncle's men. So he is the biggest suspect unless there is someone else in your family who hates you."Eva, sitting in the back seat, protested. "All of the Sharp family has been kind to us. We’ve never hurt each other.""Whatever," Alex focused on the road as the car headed back to the hotel. "You can keep believing that and get yourselves killed. Or you can start being wary of everything from now on."Ava and Eva knew his words were true.When Alex reached the front of the hotel, neither of them got out. "What are you both waiting for?" he asked impatiently.The twins exchanged looks, and Ava spoke up, "I’m sorry to bother

    At one of the Clean Water Company branches, a group of people delivered a large liquid container."What is that?" asked the security guard on the entrance."We're delivering Sodium Hydroxide, like usual," said a man in a yellow suit, handing over a document. "Here is the paperwork.""What is that for?" asked the security guard, reading the document."Well, it is a liquid applied after the filtration process to adjust the pH levels of the water. It ensures the water is not too acidic or alkaline, which helps prevent pipe corrosion and ensures safe drinking water," the transporter explained.The security guard looked indifferent, yawning as he let them pass. As the group in yellow suits entered, they met a group of people in white clothing who wore badges from Clean Water Company."Let us take over from here," the man in white clothes said."No," the man in the yellow suit replied firmly. "We have orders to pour this liquid ourselves to ensure nothing happens.""Sure, everyone here is o

    “You look so happy today,” Ava asks, wondering.Alex looks at them both and can't help but admire the two beauties. They are mesmerizing, especially with their sleeveless shirts that show off their white ivory skin.“It’s just a report from the military,” Alex continues, taking a bite of his food.“Are you still working with the military?” Eva glances at Alex with her beautiful eyes and long eyebrows.“Officially, no, I was fired,” Alex sighs. “But some friends in the military take pity on me and give me some outsourcing jobs, like yesterday’s task to run a war simulation and find problems from possible attacks.”Both of them seem interested in what Alex has done.Alex coughs, unable to bear the intense gaze of two pairs of beautiful eyes. He continues, “This is military top secret, I hope you both can keep it.”Ava touches her heart. “If it is secret, I don’t think it’s okay to share with us, right?”“Well, it’s a secret now, but in the next few hours, it will not be secret anymore,”

    War is not a place for people with soft hearts."Let’s think from the opposite view," Alex said, turning on another simulation about the water poisoning that spread through the West Empire. "Aslan worked with Gavin to poison all the drinking water from the Clean Water company.""Do you know how many people got poisoned?" Alex asked, turning on the television. The news continued to report on the patients, the count of those affected rising steadily. It had already reached 20 million people from all over the West Empire."Can you imagine 20 million people contaminated with the poison, and all of them having about a 90% chance of death?" Alex looked at Ava, his eyes narrowing. "If you think 400 thousand people dead is cruel, what about this tactic killing 20 million people?"Eva stared at Alex, her eyes welling up with tears. "Please tell me why the Empire let this happen. Is it because we are Western Empire citizens? So the Empire let Aslan's people poison us?""First, people need to k

    Benito Kosh was desperately scanning for the source of the attack on their aircraft. “Where are all these attacks coming from?” he shouted, his voice tinged with frustration and fear.He had already warned his crew to be vigilant, urging them to check every possible direction. They had even checked above the sky and around, leaving no stone unturned. The radar was operating at full capacity, driven by his instincts.“They’re from below!” a staff member yelled.Benito’s heart sank. He knew that if the attacks were coming from below, it would be harder to detect them on radar, especially if the objects were small and using the terrain’s contours to their advantage.“They’re using ground missiles,” Benito realized. “Tell everyone to ascend to a higher altitude, where the missiles can’t reach!”But as the aircraft began to climb, a suicide drone carrying an explosive payload followed closely behind. It struck with precision, destroying their engines and causing one aircraft after another

    Alex hurried toward the front door, but before he could even walk down the steps, Ophelia stormed inside, trailed furiously by her mother, Michelle, and her father, Justin.The trio burst into the manor as if it were their own, arrogance dripping from their every move—clearly, this wasn't their first invasion.Instantly, the manor filled with blistering tension, a tempest charged with scorn and disdain.Michelle’s shrill voice sliced through the silence, her words dripping venom." Ophelia you better divorce your husband. Alex Leonhard is worthless sack of shame! He is a stain upon our family name. Divorce him, Ophelia—now! Or your grandmother will toss you straight out of the D’Arcy nobility like garbage!"Ophelia stood unmoved, her voice cool, iron beneath velvet, "If that's her choice, I'll simply live here with Alex. He’s my husband, a Baron; my place was always at his side."Michelle’s face twisted with disgust, her eyes blazing."You stubborn fool! What’s so alluring about this

    Baron Leonhard once ruled over five villages, but now, two had already deserted him—broken by famine, crushed under unbearable taxes, fleeing for their lives.The remaining three clung desperately together, their souls shredded thin, teetering on the brink of collapse.Misfortune had etched itself into their bones, and they cursed the day they were born into this forsaken land.Two years ago, life was tough but tolerable; they were poor but not starving, scraping by day to day, always hoping tomorrow might offer something better.Then, without warning, the Baron emerged from shadows unknown, raising taxes with ruthless indifference, draining them dry like a vampire thirsting for blood.The villagers' whispers grew darker, their hatred sharper, praying nightly for the Baron's swift demise—but as cruel fate would have it, evil had a way of outliving hope.Today began as another hollow morning, the fields barren as their stomachs, empty hands grasping at dust.But today was different, to

    “A gift?” Michael Dunsmore burst out laughing, the sound sharp and cutting, echoing through the garden.“Who the hell do you think you are, Alex? Last I checked, you barely had two miserable villages scraping by on dirt and despair. You've borrowed so much money these past two years, I'm amazed you can still afford your own damn underwear!”Michael’s cruel laughter was shared by the surrounding crowd.His confidence was bolstered by the knowledge of his family's immense wealth—the prestigious Dunsmore clan controlled four prosperous villages, making Alex's poverty an easy target.Though Michael stood next to Olivia, his fiancée, his eyes lingered hungrily on Ophelia D’Arcy.Her radiant beauty eclipsed Olivia's entirely, and it burned him deeply to see such perfection bound to someone as worthless as Alex.Two years prior, Ophelia had fallen gravely ill, her delicate life hanging by a thread.It was Alex who stepped in, with knowledge unknown to others, and saved her life.In gratitude

    Alex stepped warily out of the manor's heavy oak door, pausing to take in the bleakness around him.The mansion had long since crumbled into a shadow of its former glory—ivy twisted relentlessly through cracked stone walls, weeds snarled around the iron gates, and the rotting wooden beams creaked mournfully with each gust of wind.He lingered a moment, wondering bitterly when this forsaken place had last seen a friendly hand or a hopeful heart.He moved down the rutted dirt road, flanked by rows of dilapidated houses whose decay mirrored his own dwindling pride.These were remnants of a once-thriving community now rotted to its bones, a decrepit slum echoing Miracle City’s decay, only deeper, darker, more desperate.The villagers watched him from shadowed doorways, gaunt faces streaked with grime and despair.Their eyes widened in fear, mothers dragging their children indoors at his sight."Strange," Alex murmured, unsettled. "What have I done to deserve such terror?"Suddenly, a hagg

    Pain.Brutal, unbearable pain—like a bullet splintering bone and ripping through flesh.Alex's dream shattered instantly. The whispers and colors vanished, replaced by white-hot agony stabbing through his skull, relentless as an outlaw’s vengeance.He tried to twist free, claw his way awake, but his body was rigid—paralyzed, trapped beneath an invisible weight.I’m still dreaming, he thought desperately, panic clawing at his chest.Maybe I’ll open my eyes and realize it’s all just another cruel illusion.But the pain was too raw, too sharp—too real.Focus. Just wake up.Each thought slipped through his mind like dust kicked up by desert wind.He drifted, helplessly spinning in a storm of chaos.My head hurt so bad?Am I dying?I need to wake up—now!Slowly, the agony dulled into a brutal, throbbing ache.With sheer will, Alex forced himself upright, gasping like a man dragged from deep water.His blurred vision slowly cleared, revealing a luxurious, beautifully furnished study.He was

    “Die! At last, you pathetic worm—you die by my hand!”Eunuch erupted into a frenzied, chilling laughter as he watched the mangled remains explode from his devastating strike.Bits of flesh splattered grotesquely across the ground. Nothing recognizable remained.“Eunuch!” a voice shouted anxiously from below, laced with unease.“Is everything clear up there?”Eunuch surveyed the carnage meticulously, his eyes narrowing with suspicion.There was nothing—no enemy, no traps—completely contradictory to their expectations of an ambush from Miracle City.Only one man. Alex.“All clear! No one left alive!” he called back confidently.Slowly and cautiously, the outlaw elders emerged, ascending from their shadowy refuge, their wary gazes landing on the grisly spectacle.Finally, the Demon King climbed out, a grim shadow cast across his face.“Who was unfortunate enough to meet this gruesome fate?” Van sneered coldly, his eyes lingering with disdain on the shredded remains.“It was Alex—that arr

    Inside the underground heart of the Outlaw’s main fortress, Eunuch doubled over, blood erupting from his throat and spilling violently onto the cold stone floor.“A whole damned week!” he spat bitterly.“And there’s no sign this cursed wound’s ever gonna heal!”He had climbed to legend rank, thinking himself invincible, untouchable—until that young bastard, Alex, activated some wickedly mysterious array, smashing him so savagely that now he could barely muster strength at an early Black Gold rank.Fury darkened Eunuch's eyes as he glared at his handsome young secretary.“Tell me, boy, what the hell is happening outside?”The secretary’s voice trembled as he reported, “Our spies from Miracle City say the king and noble families are still scrambling, desperately plugging the holes left by the Bolton family massacre. They're burying warriors by the dozen. Funerals fill their days; they're tightening defenses, terrified we might strike.”Eunuch laughed coldly, tasting blood again.“Van’s

    But when their forces collided, the impact ripped through Eunuch's body, tearing open flesh and splintering bone.Shock filled his eyes as his skin burst, blood spraying.In desperation, he activated his treasured relics—each one instantly obliterated by the sheer force bearing down on him.Eunuch flew backward, crashing violently through the air before finally stabilizing.He gasped for breath, blood dripping from countless wounds, his pride utterly shattered. Without his treasures, he realized bitterly, he would already be dead.Fear flickered briefly in his eyes, replaced swiftly by grudging respect. “This array...is terrifying,” he murmured, clutching his ravaged chest.Raising his voice, he called to Alex, “You’ve earned my respect. In three months, the Demon King and I await your arrival at Outlaw. Do not disappoint.”Grabbing Van, Eunuch vanished into the horizon.Alex stared grimly after them. He could have stopped them, could have killed them—but the Demon King’s wrath would

    Howard’s heart lurched violently at the sight.If Van escaped, he was finished. Panic surged through him, adrenaline burning in his veins.He shoved Scarlett aside with a desperate, savage strength and sprinted toward Van, screaming, “Wait! Don’t leave me!”Arthur’s jaw tightened.
