His eyes scanned the crowd. These were ex-Aslan nobility, people who had always looked down on commoners. They still clung to the old ways, even maintaining a slaver system in this so-called New Empire.‘It’s going to take a long time to change their habits,’ Alex thought, suppressing the frustration rising within him.Just then, the man stepped forward, his eyes locked on Crystal. “Lady Crystal, I am Count Cross,” he announced, his gaze lingering on her as if she were a prize to be claimed. “It has been a very long time since I heard your name and saw your beauty. Will you give me the honor of a dance?”“I am sorry, Count Cross, but I am a married woman. Please show your respect to me and my husband,” Crystal said firmly, her voice carrying the weight of her dignity.“Oh,” Count Cross replied, raising his hand as if suddenly remembering something. His brown hair glinted under the chandelier lights as he smirked. “Respect for your husband, right. I almost forgot.”He turned and called

Count Cross hurriedly called for his six guards, his voice dripping with fury, “This commoner, I want him dead right here, right now!”Immediately, Count Cross's bodyguards rushed into the banquet hall, their eyes locked on Alex. But Alex moved faster than any of them.With a swift and precise blow, he struck the first guard on the jaw, sending him crashing to the ground, knocked out cold with a single hit.One after another, Alex dispatched the remaining guards, his movements fluid and controlled.Despite facing six trained men, not one of them managed to land a hit on him. To everyone’s shock, Alex knocked them out with a single blow each.“Stop! Stop it!” Lady Ashworth screamed, her voice laced with panic. “You little scumbag, stop hitting Count Cross's people!”Alex turned to her, his eyes narrowing. “What? Are you saying I should let them hit me?” His words were sharp, dripping with sarcasm. “Is your brain functioning properly?”“I am your Baroness! Watch how you speak!” Lady Ash

The case of Alex being hurt while protecting his wife from a noble spread like wildfire among the former citizens of Aslan.It quickly gained support from the commoners, many of whom had faced similar situations when the King was in power.The King always sided with the nobility, leaving the voices of the commoners unheard and ignored.Now, with the Empire firmly in control, and one of its military soldiers being assaulted by a noble while trying to protect his own wife from humiliation, the ex-Aslan people found a reason to be brave.They launched protests, demanding the eradication of noble privileges and the implementation of equal laws for everyone.The nobility, desperate to maintain their power, started exerting political influence on the King. Their faction shouted, "If King Christopher dares to side with the commoners and strips us of our power, we will gather our forces and drive the entire Empire out!"On the other side, the commoners chanted in unison, "It is our time to fo

The next morning, as usual, the citizens gathered for their protest.But this time, something was different—there was an unsettling tension in the air.Both sides were already on edge since the death of the citizen.The nobles, sensing the unrest, prepared their guns, while some brave citizens, fueled by years of anger, dared to bring their own weapons.Families with long-standing grudges against the nobles saw this as their chance to finally exact revenge. It was now or never.Under Lavinia's command, the soldiers began coordinating with the leaders of the citizen groups, each made up of five members.Lavinia's voice was calm but firm as she addressed them. "Remember, you will target only the nobles, and it must be done simultaneously at 10 in the morning. Make sure they are all within your reach. If this fails, they will hide like turtles inside their houses."Meanwhile, Alex was at the flower shop, helping Crystal plant seeds and tidy up the flowers.The clock was ticking closer to

Five months ago, Alex had a serious conversation with Christopher about what they should do with the Aslan Nobles."Can we choose not to kill the nobles?" Christopher asked."Yes, we could," Alex replied. "But they’ve held onto their power over the population for generations. They've even changed the king twice, and now, the king is nothing more than a puppet without any real power.""They are the real power holders in Aslan," Alex continued. His gaze was distant, as if seeing the inevitable path ahead. "You cannot control all of Aslan without controlling the nobles.""Then we're going to control the nobles without killing them," Christopher said. "We will do it my way. We'll try for a few months.""I'll give you three months to check," Alex warned, his voice low, almost a growl. "If you don’t succeed, I'll need time to prepare for everything."Christopher nodded, determination hardening in his chest, yet a knot of dread twisted in his gut.After three months, Christopher had tried to

In a distant place, the Marquess Gram stood on the balcony, glaring at the military aircraft hovering in the sky.His anger boiled over as he turned to his captain, his voice sharp and furious. “How dare the Empire’s military come here to support the citizens! Summon all the nobles—we will wage war against the king!”“Lord Gram,” the captain began, his tone tense as his face pale, “we’ve blocked all communications of all New Empire from 10:00 to 11:00, just as you and all nobles agreed. That way, we could kill the protest leaders without anyone recording our actions.”Marquess Gram’s face suddenly drained of color.His hands trembled slightly as he gripped the stone railing. “Are you saying if the military attacks us now, there will be no record? And we won’t be able to communicate with anyone?”The captain nodded, his expression grim. Their plan to silence the protesters had backfired, twisted by the military into a trap for them.“This can’t be true, right?” Marquess Gram muttered,

Southerland Nelson looked pessimistically at Saladin. "Draconia and Aslan fell exactly when they thought they could win by attacking The Empire. Are you sure that the day you and I attack the Empire won't be our last?"Saladin couldn't be sure. They were facing the God of War, Alexander—the man who had never lost a battle."How long is the peace treaty between Nova and the Empire?" Nelson asked, his voice laced with concern."Same as with the Southern lands, about two years more," Saladin replied, his brow furrowed in thought."What is the chance that the Empire will break the peace treaty and attack us?" Nelson continued, his gaze intense."For the long history of Archlion Empire, they have never broken any peace treaty. They are a people with old tradition who respect their promises and treaties like sacred things," Saladin said."How about Nova attacks the Empire first, and Southerland will support from the back?" Nelson suggested, his tone growing more assertive."How about Southe

As Matthew lunged toward Crystal, Bard seized the moment, shoving Matthew aside, causing him to stumble and fall to the ground.“What are you doing?” Matthew yelled from where he lay, his eyes blazing with anger.“Don’t touch Miss Crystal with your dirty hands!” Bard shouted, stepping forward to shield Crystal.“You poor driver, aren’t you afraid of what I’ll do to your car? You’d better get out of here before I get really angry,” Matthew taunted, his voice dripping with menace.“I won’t do it.”“Don’t you know that my father is the owner of Aurora Hills Food Factory? I can easily have my security refuse to let you unload your items there. Let’s see if any of the villagers will still use your services then!”Some village women began gathering around, drawn by the commotion.Seeing the growing crowd, Matthew glanced around nervously, his discomfort evident. “Crystal, you’d better think carefully. I’ll come back tomorrow, and you should accept me, or many bad things will happen to you.”

Alex loitered in Sofie’s overgrown yard at the King’s Mansion, pumping his Mana force into the night air like he owned the place.Moonlight flickered across his face while Sofie and Cassandra snored away inside, oblivious to his midnight hustle.The more he trained, the more his Mana felt like it was bonding with the stars themselves, feeding his soul with a slow, powerful burn.After a while, he felt a rush of energy flood through him, and he exhaled, eyes cutting to a rustling bush off to one side.“Father-in-law,” Alex said flatly. “You’ve been spying on me this whole time. Please just step out.”Sure enough, from behind the leaves crept Arthur—mighty, arrogant Arthur, so-called Black Gold rank Magician.He looked downright insulted that someone like Alex, some five-star Silver upstart, had sniffed him out.“So it’s true,” Arthur said, voice tight. “You can actually sense my aura.”Alex raised one brow and scoffed like he’d just smelled something rotten. “You think hiding from me w

Alex slammed his sword into the marble floor with a deafening crash, sending a web of cracks snaking across the polished stone.He glared at Richard Bolton and snarled, “So you think you can bully anyone you want, but no one can bully you? Stick around if you dare, and I’ll carve that arrogance out of you.”Richard’s eyes flickered with terror.He still remembered losing humiliatingly to Alex during the tournament. Worse, Alex had only grown stronger since then.Glancing toward the upper balcony, Richard searched for his father’s support. But Howard Bolton stood silent, his face twisted in displeasure.He refused to lift a finger in child fight.Alex watched with a mocking grin.Richard, you fool—Arthur trapped Howard with a few well-placed words. If Howard intervenes now, it’ll look like blatant intimidation.The Bolton patriarch had no choice but to swallow the shame.That suited Alex just fine. The longer he provoked them, the more the Bolton Family’s hatred would flare, forcing th

And Alex had aimed his entire performance at warning Camelot off.The truth was, if Miracle City wanted to break its ceilings, they needed Alex.Camelot might be a prodigy, but the city could survive without him.Without Alex, however? That was a gamble Arthur wasn’t willing to take.Camelot said nothing, but you could practically see the shadows swirling in his eyes.He’d believed from the get-go that Arthur was grooming him for the throne.Without that lofty goal, he’d be just a glorified foster kid, overshadowed by Sofie and hounded by the city’s paranoid elders.With Alex in the picture, he felt the noose tightening.Scarlet Hunt, on the other hand, beamed like a kid in a candy store.Alex’s brand of troublemaking was next-level.He bulldozed through Richard in front of the King and half the city’s VIPs—then strutted around like he owned the place.She’d prided herself on being a wild child, but Alex was playing in an entirely different league.She kind of loved it.Richard and hi

“Are you actually joking right now?” Richard spluttered, shrinking back like a terrified puppy when Alex’s icy stare skewered him.He’d just gotten a taste of humiliation not too long ago on the arena; there was zero chance he wanted another brutal encore.It wasn’t just Richard who felt the choking tension.The other heirs in the hall blanched the moment they caught a whiff of that lethal vibe Alex was throwing around.No one had expected such brazen audacity in the King’s Mansion.Everyone—even Sofie—was left gaping like clueless fools.Cassandra, however, was rattled in a different way.She knew perfectly well the feud between Alex and Richard boiled down to her.Alex was fueled by raw anger on her behalf, which only wound her heart tighter with a tangle of guilt and admiration.What most people missed was that Alex wasn’t just tormenting Richard for kicks.Nah, the pathetic slime wasn’t worth this level of rage.No, Alex’s real target was the entire Bolton clan. And Richard was th

Talk about lighting a match.The younger crowd started whispering, eyeballing Alex from head to toe.Some pointed out he was underdressed, looking more like a ragged farmhand than a star of Miracle City.But a whole lot of them were more interested in the two stunning girls on his arms—Cassandra and Sofie, both so dazzling they made half the room sink into self-loathing.Scarlet Hunt, meanwhile, puffed her chest and clung to her own brand of haughty pride, refusing to look second-best.Still, her cheeks turned an interesting shade of pink when her gaze landed on Alex’s face.Most of the men in the room were seeing green: Alex strolling in with two of the city’s favorite beauties, plus rumors that the Hunt heiress was also staking her claim on him.They looked ready to smash their heads against the nearest wall. Is this what it means to be a genius? How had they wasted all that time not training?Scarlet walked right up to him, her dress swishing regally. “Alex,” she said, voice trembl

An almost suffocating silence slammed over the banquet hall.Richard stood there like some oblivious fool, that tacky grin of his stuck to his face as if someone’d nailed it on.You could practically taste the chill in the air. And the culprit? Scarlet.Sure, she was decked out in finery that screamed “pretty little princess,” but her voice cut through the room like she was the queen of all creation.Everyone who’d been snickering at her before got real quiet real quick. The girl could scare the fangs right off a viper.People whispered to each other, “Hell, that tigress never changed. Whoever’s stupid enough to marry her is signing his own damn obituary.”Clearly, no one felt brave enough to breathe a word too loudly.Camelot cleared his throat, trying to play the peacemaker. “Alright, enough with that,” he said.It was a weak attempt at smoothing things over, and Richard, who was still trying to salvage his pride, just let out a strained chuckle.Then Scarlet fixed Richard with a st

Three days. That’s how long Alex had been out cold, barely even breathing.Sofie and Cassandra took turns babysitting him like some oversized infant, refusing to let anyone else tend to his sorry self.Meanwhile, the King’s Mansion was a construction zone on steroids—workers hammering day and night, erecting the grand defenses of the Thousand Beast Illusions.If they’d built the damn thing sooner, maybe the Outlaw wouldn’t have waltzed in like he owned the place.In the Main Affairs Hall, Arthur—His Royal Piousness—was neck-deep in paperwork, dealing with the aftermath of the last big brawl.Dead guards? Check.Destroyed property? Check.Gut-wrenching pensions? Check.He also kept sneaking off to see Alex, never letting Sofie or Cassandra catch wind. God forbid the King look even remotely sentimental.A flustered guard rushed in like his pants were on fire. “Your Majesty, Young Master Camelot is here to see you!”Arthur’s ever-present scowl vanished. “Oh? Camelot’s back?” He practical

Arthur’s breath caught in his throat the moment he heard the news.“Mysteriously died?” The words sent a chill down his spine.“So the Outlaw used their final safeguard after all.”His gaze dropped to the cold prison floor where three Black Gold–rank Magicians had lain mere hours before.Now, they were gone—bodies left in unnatural poses, eyes vacant.He turned to his subordinate, voice razor-sharp. “Poison.”A bitter silence fell.The Outlaw had found a way to ensure no prisoner ever betrayed them, even under torture.If one of their agents was captured, the Outlaw made sure the poison effectively killing them.It explained why no one in Miracle City had ever pried information from the Outlaw’s ranks.Arthur clenched his fists. So that’s how they’ve managed to stay hidden. Such ruthless precision…***Under the moonlight, a lone figure stood amidst a courtyard of kneeling men.Their black cloaks rippled in the breeze, faces obscured by darkness.Among them huddled a handful of Black

The battle for Miracle City raged under a sky blackened by ash and rolling clouds.At the heart of the chaos stood the King’s Mansion, swarmed by an army of small, fiery demons pouring forth from a jagged fissure in the earth.Each demon sprang from gouts of bubbling lava that seeped through that crack, armed with claws and raw malice.Their high-pitched shrieks rattled windows and hearts alike.Yet the defenders stood firm. Guard battalions and family fighters alike roared “Kill!” in defiance, steeling themselves for a desperate stand.Their collective voice thundered across the city, kindling morale. Several Black Gold–rank experts from the DuPont Family led a furious charge, cleaving swaths of demons with each swing.They pressed forward, determined to seal the crack and choke off the demons’ endless reinforcements.From the walls, Lancelot surveyed the battlefield.Relief tempered the edge of his anxiety when he saw the city’s families fighting as one.Soot-stained and weary, he f
