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.”

    Matthew took a step back, his eyes wide with a mix of anger and fear. "How dare you kill people! Don’t you even think about facing the police later?"Alex laughed, a cold, mocking sound that echoed in the dark alley. He kept moving forward, his gaze never leaving Matthew’s.“Of all people, you’re the one talking? There have been two cases of missing high school girls in the last five years. Do you happen to know where they’ve gone?”Matthew’s face paled as he stammered, “W-What do you mean? I don’t understand…”“Really?” Alex’s eyes narrowed, his voice dripping with sarcasm. “Then why do you have a sex video with both of the women who went missing?”He stepped forward again, this time grabbing Matthew’s collar, his grip tightening as he leaned in closer. “It’s simple. You had your fun with them, and then you killed them, right?”Matthew’s heart pounded in his chest. “What kind of bullshit are you talking about?” he spat out, trying to pull away.But Alex only smiled, a sinister grin s

    But the gun only clicked, the sound echoing in the silence.Matthew’s eyes widened in shock as he frantically pulled the trigger again and again, but nothing happened.Pete remained calm, pulling a small bullet from his pocket and holding it up. “I took them out from your backpack,” he said quietly, his eyes locked on Matthew.Matthew’s face drained of color, his hands scrambling to find the single bullet that had fallen to the ground.But before he could react, Pete kicked him hard in the face, sending him sprawling.Matthew gasped, the taste of blood filling his mouth as he dropped the weapon.His hands shook as he tried to grab it, but Pete was quicker.He picked up the gun, filled it with the bullet, and aimed it at Matthew, his eyes cold.The tables had turned.“What are you doing, Pete?” Matthew’s voice quivered, a mix of fear and confusion lacing his words.“Nothing,” Pete replied, his tone eerily calm as he pointed the gun at Matthew’s head.“Anna was my cousin, and I loved he

    At night, everyone gathered outside the house for a simple barbecue party.The smoky scent of grilled meat filled the air, mingling with the laughter and chatter of family.The stars twinkled overhead, casting a soft glow on the group as they enjoyed their meal under the open sky.“Alex, I love Crystal so much!” Milla, Alex’s mother, yelled from far while hugging Crystal, her eyes gleaming with warmth.“If you dare to break her heart, I will never forgive you.”“She has the same kindness and gentleness as your mother,” Augustus, the emperor, added, his gaze fixed on Alex as they both sat at the garden bench.“Yeah, and she is amazing,” Alex replied, taking a swig of the cheap beer he shared with his father.“You finally found someone like your mother,” Augustus said, though a note of sadness crept into his voice.He hesitated for a moment, then continued, “Do you know why we are here?”“Because tomorrow will be the last day I am incognito,” Alex said, his eyes narrowing slightly. “And

    Crystal rushed to the neighbor's house when, suddenly, a man appeared and grabbed her, pulling her into a dark alley.“Ethan, what are you doing here?” Crystal gasped as she recognized her brother.“I need your help,” Ethan replied, his voice tense.Ethan Gavin had been on the run for a year, hiding from the Empire, desperate to avoid capture.“Ethan, please turn yourself in to the police,” Crystal pleaded, her voice trembling with urgency. “Just tell them it was all about our father’s actions. I believe they won’t give you a heavy punishment.”“Shut up!” Ethan yelled, his eyes burning with rage. “Is this what your husband taught you? To betray your own blood, to send me to prison or to my death?”He tightened his grip on Crystal’s neck, causing her to gasp for breath. “You are Gavin’s family. How dare you side with the enemy?”“Ethan, it’s over,” Crystal begged, her voice choked with pain.“Believe me, before I die, I won’t rest until our enemies are destroyed! It’s all because of th

    Richard’s nostrils flared as fury radiated from every muscle in his body. He raised his fists, stepping forward to unleash a barrage of blows toward Alex.Against someone like this, Richard saw no need to reveal his own Beast Genetic right away.As far as he was concerned, once he awakened that power, Alex wouldn’t last a single exchange—let alone the twenty moves he’d been instructed to wait.Alex’s lips curved into a cunning smile. So he won’t use his beast form right away? In that case, I’ll settle this in one strike.He had planned to put on a show, barely scraping a victory for dramatic effect.But now, there was no point in pretending. A sudden pressure rippled through the arena as Alex activated his mana.“Let’s go, Alpha Wolf,” he whispered.A brilliant flash of light illuminated the battleground.

    A Few Days Later: The Great Coliseum of Miracle CityMiracle City’s Great Coliseum sprawled across the eastern district, an enormous stone structure encircled by tiered stands capable of seating tens of thousands.Folks in this town adored a good brawl—whether it was a tavern scrap or a formal duel, there was nothing like betting on blood and broken bones to get their hearts racing.On this blustery afternoon, the nobles and lesser families alike had mustered for a fresh round of contests.The Steel Family sat huddled off to one side, just a stone’s throw from the Bolton Family, looking oddly pleased with themselves.Frankly, nobody used to give a rat’s tail about the Steel Family—they were broke, battered, and about as influential as mold on an outhouse.But now? Suddenly, they were the center of attention.Why? Because Carmen Lie—the downright dazzling and formidable Director of the Alchemist Association—had strolled in like she owned the place and parked herself right next to them,

    After bidding farewell to Ferdinand, Alex, William, and Rudolf boarded their old car back to the Steel Family, each having gained something valuable from their journey.Upon returning, William and Rudolf summoned the entire Steel Family to distribute elixirs for faster growth, while keeping secret from outsider.Alex then settled into his private room to focus on intense practice.That evening, Alex learned from the Alchemist Association’s Carmen Lie that a group of assassins had attempted to steal the Iron plate but were swiftly dealt with by her bodyguards.Alex’s eyebrow twitched, surprised that anyone in Miracle City would dare attempt such a brazen act, and he guessed the assassins must have known the smartphone’s true purpose—serving as a key to many hidden bunkers and locked places in ancient ruins—making such a dangerous risk worthwhile in their eyes.Only the Outlaw could be bold enough for such crimes, leaving Alex certain of their involvement.Regardless of whether it was t

    Alex had already fused with a Phantom, though no one knew.His trip wasn’t simply to find an ordinary Beast Genetic, so William’s references were of little use.“I have my own plan,” Alex said with a nod.William and Rudolf exchanged anxious smiles. They kept forgetting that this fifteen-year-old was no ordinary child—he was more like a monster genius, beyond their ability to guide or decide for.The car sped forward, and Alex had William check that no one was trailing them.Once he confirmed they weren’t being followed, Alex finally relaxed.Despite that, a lingering worry remained that someone might be monitoring him—either the Bolton Family or the Outlaw group.Both had immense power, but luckily neither seemed interested in following a teenager this time.By the time they did pay attention, Alex believed he would have already grown too strong for them to handle.Beast Genetic Merchant Hall – VIP RoomUpon revealing their identities at the Beast Genetic Merchant Hall, Alex and his

    “Sixty-five million dollars!” Carmen Lie’s voice rang out through the hushed auction hall. Despite the hammering of her own heart, she refused to back down.Alex had given clear orders: whatever the cost, the iron plate must be won—and he would pay.She swallowed hard. Sixty million... Was this battered piece of metal really worth it? What was so special about it that Alex insisted she secure it at all costs?From the raised balcony, Alex studied the cloaked figure down on the main floor.Whoever the man was, he was determined to challenge the Alchemist Association head-on.“Seventy million,” the mystery bidder called. He sounded uncertain but still pressed forward.“Seventy-five million,” Carmen countered immediately.Gasps rippled across the crowd. The price soared higher and higher.Nearby, William and Rudolf stood speechless. They knew Alex needed that plate, but they hadn’t expected the bidding to explode like this.Their minds buzzed: Just how deep are Alex’s pockets? How much

    “Grand Elder Rudolf, take this Body Strength Pill. Consume it once you’re home—it’ll do wonders for a Fighter’s physical prowess.”Alex handed Rudolf a small pill, its surface gleaming with faint energy.“Thank you, Alex!” Rudolf’s voice trembled with emotion.He knew how ridiculously expensive Body Strength Pills had become; rumors claimed one could cost over a million dollars.Nearby, William’s eyes shone with envy.He knew as well as anyone that these pills weren’t just for Fighters—Magicians benefited greatly from them, too.“Alex,” William said with a respectful nod, “the Steel Family is your family. Our treasury is your treasury. Take whatever you like from it.” He gestured expansively.In truth, most items left in the Steel Family’s vault were useless to them.He actually hoped Alex would take more. The elixirs Alex had already given were worth more than the entire Steel Family combined.“I’m surprised by your generosity, Patriarch,” Alex said, eyeing William.“It seems I’ve mi

    Rudolf took the bottles from Alex and immediately opened one.His eyes went wide the instant he saw the contents: a mix of Mana Refining Pills and Mana Gathering Pills.Though each pill was tiny, their authenticity was unmistakable, and realizing what he held made his heart pound with excitement.He discovered there were a hundred high-rank potions in one of the box—an astonishing number.Typically, only the most influential families had access to such elixirs; finding them on the open market was nearly impossible.Not too long ago, Miracle City’s King Auction House sold only a few high-rank potions.Just one fetched the staggering sum of five hundred thousand dollars.If a single potion could command that price, then hundreds would easily be worth over a ten to hundred million!This enormous figure almost made Rudolf feel faint.No matter how wealthy you were, getting your hands on high-rank potions without special channels was nearly unthinkable.“These pills are pricey right now be

    Mateo and Jose joined the bidding war the moment it began, their voices cutting through the din as four prominent families clashed over those coveted pills.The commotion only settled when the price soared to three hundred and twenty thousand dollars—a sum that made the entire room hold its breath.William, rubbing his hands together in a mix of excitement and nerves, sidled up to Alex.“Alex, these are precious Mana Refining Pills,” he said, voice pitched low.“You sure you’re not going to buy? Better you get them than watch those other families snatch them all.”Alex merely shrugged and leaned back in his chair.“Not really interested,” he answered softly.“I’ve picked up quite a few items already. Let the others have some fun bidding—it’s boring if only one person wins every time.”William didn’t know whether to laugh or groan.He was well aware how valuable Mana Refining Pills could be for cultivating the younger generation.But then a thought struck him: these pills came from the

    William's and Rudolf's faces turned pale.They were just a small clan; without a noble title, they might never stand among the other clans.Even with their noble status intact, they remained at the bottom of the hierarchy.The two noble clans standing before them could crush the Steel family any time they wanted.Alex stood abruptly, a wide grin splitting his face.“When a man lets his mouth run, the words are like spit—once out, they can’t be taken back. It’s disgusting.”“What do you mean by that?” Mateo demanded, his brows furrowing.“I accept your war cry. Starting tomorrow, let our clans go to war!” Alex declared boldly.William grabbed Alex by the arm, panic etched on his face. “What are you doing? Do you want to get our clan destroyed?”Alex shook his head, his smile sharp. “Why care about two small clans like theirs? We’ll call the Alchemist Association. With their help and a thousand gold and silver ranks fighters, we can flatten their clan. Once they’re out of the way, we’ll
