Eva’s breath caught in her throat, but she nodded quickly. “All right, I’ll give you 2,000. Just stop hitting Alex.”

“Deal,” Maladin laughed, a cruel grin spreading across his face. Each bottle could be worth at least $200,000. If he has 2,000 of them, that means he’s already pocketed $400 million!

“Stop, all of you! He’ll die if you keep hitting him.”

The men halted their assault, stepping back as Alex crumpled to the ground, his body battered and bruised.

Eva rushed to his side, her hands trembling as she touched his bloodied face.

“Take him,” Maladin commanded, and two men moved forward to drag Alex away.

“Wait,” Eva called out desperately. “You promised me.”

Maladin turned to her. “Yes, I promised. But you’ll have to send me the 2,000 bottles of the best wine first before I release him to you,” he said, his voice dripping with smug confidence.

“I’ll have my aircraft parked outside the Academy. You have four hours to get the wine. If I don’t get it in time, Alex will die.”

    Alex was locked in the aircraft’s basement, confined to a small prisoner room near the stacked wine boxes.The air felt cold, and the hum of the engines vibrated through the metal floor.“Open screen,” he commanded, his voice low but firm.A transparent screen materialized in front of him, seemingly from nowhere.“Where am I?” he glanced at the display, which showed they were already two hours into their journey, with about five more hours to go before reaching Novara, the capital city of Nova.In 40 minutes, they would cross the border, where Nova’s military forces stood vigilant.The airspace was heavily guarded, with countless defense missiles ready to intercept any unauthorized aircraft.Alex closed his eyes, focusing deeply as he let his soul ability project his consciousness out of his body.He could sense Maladin and his men lounging in the central cockpit, drinking the expensive wine they had stashed.He then turned his attention to the guard monitoring the CCTV feed of the pr

    "Wake up!"The sharp command sliced through as the prisoner door creaked open with a loud crank.Alex barely had time to register what was happening before a rough kick jolted him awake.The ropes around his wrists were still tightly secured, binding him.He was roughly yanked to his feet by the guards and pushed toward the cargo door, where others were still unloading the wine crates.The cool morning air hit him as he stumbled, trying to keep his balance. Without a word, they shoved him into a waiting truck.“Father,” Maladin called out, his voice dripping with arrogance. “What do you think we should do with this Alexander Kingsley?”Saladin’s voice responded through the phone. “Play with him in the youth streaming video or podcast. Let the people know they shouldn't be afraid of the Empire.”“Yes, Father,” Maladin replied, a smirk tugging at the corners of his mouth.He knew exactly what his father wanted—to use Alexander as a tool to gain favor with the younger generation, to inci

    “You’re lying!” Maladin screamed, his fury boiling over as he delivered a vicious kick to Alex.“You’re just a fake Alexander Kingsley! Don’t think I didn’t check your identity. You’re just an ex-military nobody who married Crystal Gavin, the traitor of the Empire, waiting to be killed!”Alex winced in pain but managed to smirk through it. “I am the real Alexander Kingsley.”“What do you mean rea!” Maladin’s face drained of color, a cold fear creeping into his eyes.“Check your border now,” Alex said. “And you’ll understand exactly what I mean.”Panic flashed across Maladin’s face.He quickly barked orders, “Check any news from the border and connect it to us, now!”The room buzzed with activity as people began frantically using their smartwatches, trying to confirm Alex’s claim.One of the men managed to link his smartwatch to the large screen on the wall, and the room fell into a stunned silence as the live feed appeared.“The Empire’s military is attacking our border!” someone shou

    Nova descended into chaos.Fear and confusion buzzed through the streets as news of the Empire’s invasion spread like wildfire.Alex understood that victory in war wasn’t just about military strength—it was about winning the hearts and minds of the people.If the Empire had attacked Nova without cause, the citizens would have condemned them as greedy tyrants, eager to expand their dominion.But by allowing himself to be kidnapped, Alex had shifted the narrative.Now, the blame fell squarely on Saladin, whose reckless actions had provoked the Empire’s response.The citizens of Nova had no choice but to direct their anger at Saladin.The Empire was merely responding to an act of provoked aggression.And it was Saladin, the marshal who had brought ruin upon them.As Alex was guided with respect toward the King’s palace.Inside the grand hall of the palace, the atmosphere was tense.Ministers and important figures of Nova gathered, all eyes on Alexander Kingsley as he entered.They bowed

    On the outskirts of Southerland Country, chaos erupted as news spread of a sudden, devastating attack on three of their main military bases.King Arthur, stunned by the reports, demanded answers from his generals.“What happened?” the king asked, his eyes darting around the room at his assembled generals.Nelson, the Supreme General, stepped forward, his face pale.“We detected drones heading towards each of our main base four hours ago. We didn’t anticipate this at all.” His voice was filled with a mixture of disbelief and regret.“Is it an Archlion Empire drone?” King Arthur asked.“No,” Nelson responded, shaking his head. “Our latest radar detected the frequency. It's usually used by Nova aircraft.”“So, it’s Nova?” The king’s voice wavered with confusion. “Then why is an Archlion Empire aircraft coming to our territory?”“They claim they’re coming in peace, just to protect us from any attack by Nova,” Nelson replied.But both men knew better. It was all just a pretext.With their

    “What kind of logic is that?!” Saladin yelled, his voice echoing through the grand hall.His fists clenched tightly as his eyes darted between the Empire soldiers. “If the Empire attacked us, wouldn’t we already be dead? What more is there to ask?”Yet, the Empire soldier raised his weapon aiming it straight at Saladin, ready to strike.“I will not ask for the second time,” Christopher growled.“You will follow us to interrogation willingly. I promise we will not kill those who are innocent. But... if you resist, we don’t need to talk anymore, do we?”“I am the king!” King Arthur shouted with anger and fear. “You cannot do this to me!”“Not anymore,” Christopher sneered, raising his hand lazily, as if dismissing Arthur’s claim entirely.“Take them to the interrogation room. If they refuse to cooperate, you know what to do.”Without hesitation, the Empire soldiers surged forward, their boots pounding against the stone floor as they grabbed Saladin, King Arthur, and the others, dragging

    Crystal Gavin hugged Alex with care and love, her embrace warm and gentle.Alex knew from the moment he met Crystal that something in his heart had already been drawn to her, a connection that had only grown stronger with time.As Alex opened his eyes, to his shock, he saw Sophia walking toward him as well.Her steps were firm, her gaze steady and unyielding.“As I know, the king can have more than one wife,” Sophia said, her voice calm but resolute.“Let me accompany you on your journey.”Alex suddenly laughed, the sound echoing softly in the grand hall.He was reminded of his father’s words, spoken months ago. "If you enter the Academy, you will find a way to break your curse."Now, standing at the edge of what felt like the end, two women stood before him, offering their everything.It wasn’t such a bad way to face death.“All right,” Alex said. “Thank you both for being willing to walk this journey with me. For now, please return. Tomorrow, Christopher will tell you what to do.”C

    The bullet flew straight toward Alex's head.Just as it was about to make contact, everything froze.Time itself seemed to halt, leaving the world suspended in eerie silence.Out of nowhere, the old master appeared in a non-physical form, his presence almost like a mirage as he looked at Alex with calm, knowing eyes."Are you sure you're not going to run from this situation?"Alex chuckled, his voice quiet but resolute. "Run? To save my life? And then what?"He shifted into a soul form, his body becoming weightless as he floated up, leaving the frozen scene behind.He flew to the highest point of the castle, where the sky stretched endlessly before him.The old master stood beside him, the entire world below them locked in stillness.“Everyone dies someday, right?” Alex asked, a sigh escaping his lips.“You’re right,” the old master replied softly, his voice filled with the wisdom of countless lifetimes.“Master,” Alex sighed again, “I’ve broken free from the illusions of this world.

    However, there was one man who didn't give a damn—Xavier Hunt.Xavier strode through the hall, holding a goblet high, his voice loud and brash."Brother Howard! It's been ages since we've shared a drink. Tonight, with big brother Arthur hosting, let’s seize the moment. Come, raise your glass!"Howard Bolton smiled stiffly and swallowed his wine, bitterness lurking beneath his polite facade. "You're too kind, Brother Hunt."Xavier laughed, eyes glittering with mockery. "Good! That's the spirit. Men, fill Howard's cup again!"The patriarchs around them grew silent, glancing nervously from the Boltons to the Hunts. Under the oppressive shadow of the Goldenhart Family, these men knew well enough to keep clear of the Boltons.But Xavier Hunt feared nothing. His family was bound tight to the Goldenharts; loyalty unquestioned, suspicion impossible.Howard felt the uneasy stirrings of dread. Something was wrong—dangerously wrong.Arthur Goldenhart had yet to appear, and if Arthur was dead, to

    Howard Bolton, iron-willed patriarch of his clan, still reeled from the sight before him, his pulse hammering with the raw truth that even Arthur himself could never stand this close to roaring magic fire and walk away unscathed. So who in God’s name was this lean, stone-faced newcomer whose skin drank the flames without a blister—had the girl already broken into Legend rank while nobody was looking.Before the hush could lift, Scarlett slid in, feinted a weak guard to lure Douglas forward, then clamped on the man’s forearm, pivoted, and drove a boot so deep into Douglas’s ribs that the crack of cartilage echoed like gunfire.His face flushing green while bile surged up his throat and the breath left him in a wet rattle.Alex watched, lips pinched in cool approval, because Scarlett understood the math of violence—flash a lapse, bait the swing, lock the limb, and unload one merciless shot that could fold any ordinary Black Gold bruiser into useless scrap before he even knew the trap h

    Howard Bolton muttered to himself, eyes roaming the hall like a caged predator.“Why aren’t they here? Where in hell is the rest of Goldenhart?”All the rival powerhouses had arrived in force, but only two in ten Goldenharts had shown face, and that imbalance stank of a trap he couldn’t yet smell.The Boltons occupied the geometric heart of the room, a bull’s‑eye encircled by sharpened gazes.Any misstep would be spotted, judged, and fed to the rumor mill before the first scream left a throat.Alex’s gaze drifted across the sea of nobles and locked onto Cassandra, Carlos, and their kin, even the Steel family’s grim patriarchs and the cool‑eyed Scarlett crowding among them; invited or not, they would plant themselves here—​but he still owed them a warning.He strode toward the Steel table.William, Rudolf, and their lieutenants brightened, pride flickering in their eyes; they had seen Goldenhart elders tip their heads to Alex, had heard whispers that he was the king’s favored suitor, a

    Howard exhaled through his teeth, crushing the rage that threatened to spill, and his voice curled across the room like smoke.“No,” he said, every syllable measured, “this maybe a trap—bait for the Bolton wolves—meant to lure us into a sprint, then gut us when we’re off balance. We will not bleed for small stakes when the grand design is at risk.”Richard, blood still on his lip, snapped, “Father, the Hathaways are mocking us! Do you know what the other families will say? We’re the damn Boltons—how can we let them humiliate us like this!”“You useless son! A disgrace to the family—you can’t even handle a woman, and now you dare hide behind the Bolton name?” Howard’s voice was thunder.“The Goldenharts are closing in, we barely have enough men to hold the line, and you cry about pride? Then act like a Bolton—go crush Cassandra and show me your pride means something!”Richard bowed his head, unable to lift it, shame burning through his chest.Howard’s glare could’ve cut steel. “Once we

    Hathaway Family.Cassandra healed faster than anyone expected. The day she returned from that fierce battle, her body seemed to ignite.Her wounds closed, her strength grew, and within days she stood at the brink of 3-star Gold rank.Each day, Mana surged into her core like an unstoppable tide, pulled by the mysterious, otherworldly technique Alex had gifted her.She felt no barriers anymore. Legend rank, once a distant dream, now shone like an achievable goal.She often gazed through the window and remembered Alex’s confident smile.Where was he now?She couldn’t help smiling back at that thought. Her reverie broke when a maid entered in haste.“Miss, the Patriarch wanted to see you.”Cassandra simply nodded, then strode toward the Main Hall.Inside, Nicolas and six elders waited. They stood, each forcing a humble smile as she approached.She recalled how they once demanded she hand over the Gotu Kola Grass.Her face turned to ice. She regarded her father, seated at the head.

    Shenny lifted her gaze toward Howard and asked, “What about Camelot?”Howard paused, then spoke with firm resolve, “Secure him a way out of the city and let the Outlaw decide his fate.”“If Camelot proves worthless or valuable, they can choose what to do with him. There’s no harm letting him live, especially now that he’s on the Goldenhart Family’s bad side.”Shenny nodded. “I’ll see it done at once.”Meanwhile, in Sofie’s courtyard, Alex meditates, immersed in his Mana training.A steady glow from the Emerald Crystals flowed into him, pushing him toward the peak of 3-star Gold rank, inching ever closer to 4-star.Emerald Crystals were rare even among Legend ranks, and most Gold-rank experts would never dare use them so lavishly; refinement at such a rapid pace was usually impossible.Yet Alex’s soul realm devoured the influx of power, strengthening the vine rooted there and fueling transformations in both the Phantom and Alpha Wolf Beast genetics within him.A fierce, swirling vortex

    Arthur leveled a grim stare at Alex. “Camelot’s no fool. He could still be hiding nearby. Both of you, stay sharp. Sofie, take Alex to the Treasury and find something to keep him safe.”Sofie turned to Arthur with concern. “Father, your condition—”Arthur shook his head. “I’m fine. The Rotten Dragon Poison has been cleansed.”He gestured toward the thick walls outside. “Four Black Gold warriors watch over me. My safety isn’t an issue.”Alex felt a flicker of anticipation at the mention of the Treasury.He knew the King’s Mansion held troves of rarities that most people never even dreamed of.Sofie led him away, thanking him under her breath.Without Alex’s knowledge of poisons and antidotes, her father might not have survived.Arthur watched his daughter and Alex depart, and a wave of sorrow rippled across his face.Camelot was a man he had mentored and trusted for years. Now that trust lay in ruins, leaving Arthur’s heart bruised in a way few could understand.The Treasury was housed

    Alex found himself walking through a very big building. He knew this was his office on the dimension plane.The place where all humans were assigned their lives. When they died, they would live again—into the life designed or chosen by some elders.Many people just lived, died, and then had another life chosen for them to live again.Everything kept spinning like this.As humans were unable to break the reincarnation cycle, what they called Samsara or karma they would keep living and dying until the end of time.Alex found himself in a massive room.A computer screen stood before him.He was able to pick any life he wanted and send his soul into the story of that life.He looked at the list of stories—it stretched on like the titles of books.Billions of stories.All could be turned into a real life.Then, he realized something.If he kept living, dying, and reincarnating again...Wasn’t he just a prisoner of life?Suddenly, a voice echoed through the air.“The Savior has come to the

    Alex soared across the endless sky, the wind tearing through his silver hair, the sun burning like fire behind him.Two blinding white wings stretched from his back—wings that pulsed with power, wings not of man, but of something ancient, divine.“Am I dreaming?” he muttered.But no.Deep down, he knew the truth. This wasn’t a dream.The angel flying through the heavens was himself. He was Sariel—the Arch Angel once closest to the True Source.Then came the voice, cold, commanding, righteous.“Sariel,” boomed Michael, the arch angel, the captain of the celestial guard. “How dare you betray the True Source for the sake of humankind?”Sariel’s eyes, once pure, now flared with rebellion. “I will bring all of Heaven to the ground, if that’s what it takes to end suffering for everyone!”Behind him, a thousand black-winged angels screamed in rage, diving toward the gates of Paradise.Heaven shook as brother turned against brother, light clashing with darkness.The sacred palaces of angels w
