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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    “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

    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

    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

    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

    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
