2024-04-03 19:47:05Alex clenched his stomach and gazed at the government agency building.
Last year, he and Merly arrived, full of love and happiness, unable to wait even a second to sign their marriage papers.
They declared the sacred oath together.
"In good times and bad, in sickness and health, for richer or poorer, until death do us part, we are committed to staying together."
Sealing it with a sacred kiss forever.
He even still vividly remembers the sweetness of the taste of the sacred kiss on her beautiful lips.
Now he was the only one clinging to their oath.
"Trash! What are you standing there for?" Merly calling out to him impatiently. "Go in and get this over with."
Alex’s had no choice. Together, they entered the crowded hall, took a number, and waited for their turn.
The sterile scent of the government office mixed with Merly’s perfume as Alex beside her pleaded.
“Merly, human can make mistake so, I will give you another chance?”
Merly remained silent.
“For all the love we've been through, all the good and bad we had endured, I'm just asking for one thing. Don’t divorce me today.”
Merly snorted harshly feeling like he didn't deserve it.
“If after tonight, our first wedding anniversary you find nothing good happen, you can divorce me anytime you want. I promise you, tonight will be a pleasant surprise.”
Merly’s eyes rolled in frustration. “Alex, do you think one day can turn you from a poor man into a rich one?”
“Yes, it can!”
“Enough!” Merly snapped. “I have tried for 364 days, and nothing has changed. I believe even I give you 10,000 days; it wouldn’t make a difference.”
“Please understand, Alex, I hate you. I hate our life together!”
“Your take me with your old motorcycle, when I’m dressed up and wearing my best makeup, then the rain comes. I got wet! People laugh at me at my workplace! While my coworker arrives with her rich boyfriend in a car.”
“She’s even uglier than me but still managed to snag a rich guy,” Her gaze burning with anger towards Alex as he was the reason for all her miserable life.
“Look at me, Alex! I deserve all the good things in life; I deserve to be with rich people. It's you who don’t deserve me!”
“When your ugly motorcycle broke down, I walked with you and been mocked by all people. How much longer must I live like this?”
“Enough is enough.” Her voice dripping with scorn. “Not a single second longer do I want to be with you.”
“Merly, I swear if you divorce me now, you’re going to regret it!” Alex replied.
“Are you threatening me, Alex?” Merly stood up abruptly, slapped him, her frustration boiling over. “I’ve been patient and kind, but all I have are regrets. I’m not afraid of you!”
The commotion caught the attention of everyone in the office.
A security guard approached. “Is there a problem?”
“Yes,” Merly snapped. “I want to divorce this man, but he keeps resisting. I need to sign our divorce papers now, before I lose my mind!”
"I am saying this for your own good," Alex replied. "Because I am still thinking of all the good things we ever had together."
"For my good? Get out of my life!" Merly's roar echoed through the room, putting Alex in a spotlight of humiliation under all people gazed and laughed.
The security guard eyed Alex, noting his dirty and worn clothes. While looking at Merly’s luxury clothes.
"Man, sign this lady's divorce papers, or I break your bones."
Alex closed his eyes, his heart aching as he tried to calm the rising anger within him. The place that was once filled with love for Merly was now beginning to transform into hatred and anger.
“Merly, except for being poor, have I ever treated you bad in this whole year? Didn’t I give you my everything?”
Merly tried to think one but found none.
The security guard chided, "Man, it is suck. Don’t cling to someone who doesn’t love you anymore; it's sickening."
"You heard him," Merly snapped. "I don’t love you anymore. That’s the issue."
When their number was called, they entered a small office where an old woman sat behind a desk.
"Mr. Alex, Mrs. Merly," she began, "I can proceed directly to having you both sign the divorce papers. However, I recommend you take a 15-minute conversation. If there's a chance you might change your minds, now is the time to decide."
Merly interjected swiftly, “I will not talk to him. He tortured in poverty me for a year, and this time for the first time I do the right thing.”
The old woman turned to Alex, “How about you, Mr. Alex?”
“I don’t want a divorce. It would be marking me as a failure in marriage. Yet, if that all she wants, why not?”
“Yes, it is you, a failure, just accept it!” Merly scoffed. “You cannot make me happy!”
"I've done everything I can; I hope none of you will regret this later," sighed the government worker as she presented two papers.
"She'll regret it," Alex snorted, flicking his wrist with the smart device.
Merly glanced at the device, scoffing, "I won't regret this ever."
“Once you both sign these, you will have no further obligations to each other. Think carefully before making your decision.”
Without hesitation, Merly snatched the paper, signed it swiftly, threw it towards Alex.
“You are the biggest mistake of my life!” She stormed out of the room.
Alex’s hand trembling as he picked up the pen, gazing at the divorce paper.
He had fought a hundred wars and won a hundred, but this time, the supreme leader was losing.

Alex looked at the divorce paper.‘Winning is winning, losing is losing.’With a heavy sigh, he signed the paper.He accepted this harsh reality like a true man, burying all his love in the silent grave of agony. He vowed not to return to this place again.“She will regret it painfully, later,” the old officer muttered.“Pardon?”“I heard the commotion you both caused outside. The security came and told me. She wants a divorce because you are poor, right?”Alex nodded.The old woman sighed heavily. “You purposely showed her a smart device on your wrist, and there is a small royal logo on it. You’re not just anybody. But she is too oblivious to what she wants.”“You know about this?” Alex showed the smart device with small royal logo."I'm old enough to recognize a Cinderella story about a royal family revealing themselves a year after marriage. I've waited for it my entire life, but it never happened.”“Some newlywed women who left the marriage department with their husband were gossip

On the roadside, under the scorching sunlight, Alex's hands trembled with rage and irony as he flung the ring."So, Ugor is the real reason for our divorce?"Merly caught the ring; her face briefly showed a hint of guilt before transforming into aggressive arrogance.“So what? We are already divorced. I am free to do anything.”“You are right.” It was really a bitter reality, taste like a sand in Alex’s mouth.“Don’t you know who Ugor really is? He’s just going to play with your heart and body, then discard you. Can’t you find someone better, someone more human than a goat?”“Shut up!” Ugor interjected. “I’m going to marry Merly. If it weren’t for you, I’d have married her six months ago.”Alex ignored him, “Merly, ask yourself deep down, is Ugor the right one for you? He’s only slightly richer than me, just another worker.”He knew her well; they had been husband and wife for a year.“Anyone better than you is fine,” Merly's face flushed with shame, her eyes darting away to avoid the

Ugor and Merly watched in shock as the beautiful woman bowed to the poor Alex."Let's head back," Alex said, fed up with all the drama. He handed the smart wrist device and bank card to Lavinia. "Please return these items later."“Please give me a moment, Sir? It won’t take long,” Livinia sweetly said, taking the items and giving Alex a wink.She approached Ugor and the car owner, who were still engaged in a heated argument, with Merly siding with Ugor.“Excuse me, gentlemen,” Lavinia interjected. “Can you give me a moment? It won’t be long.”She then turned to Merly. “You must be Merly, Alex’s ex-wife.”“And who are you?” Merly looked her suspiciously.“Oh, where are my manners? I am Lavinia, Alex’s personal assistant,” she replied with a graceful tone, her demeanour exuding nobility.The scent of her expensive perfume filled the air.“These two items were supposed to be Alex’s wedding gifts to Mrs. Merly. I personally arranged them under Alex’s instructions. But it seems they were d

Merly burst into the room, her eyes wide with desperation, declaring, “Cancel my divorce this instant!”The woman looked at Merly, her finger already on the enter button. "Oops... I just pushed it."Merly's face turned into a shock; her smart device was still connected to Auna."Oh, I apologize, Mrs. Merly,” Auna suddenly called. “Our system just processing your divorce. As a result, this bank account will be terminated. Have a nice day."The screen suddenly went blank."Why did you put it in the system?" Merly’s anger flaring at the worker.“I had tried to give you 15 minutes before, but you refused it! Go back to Mr. Alexander, ask him to sign the marriage papers again," the woman disdainfully said. “Loser!”In a mixed feeling of fury and loss, Merly walked out.The guard halted Merly with a lewd grin. "He's signed the divorce papers. Do you have time tonight?""Shut up!" Merly snapped, pushing him away angrily.Outside the parking lot, in the burning heat of the sunlight, she found

"What? What did you just say?" The general manager stood up, shock and disbelief evident on his face. No one had ever spoken so boldly in front of him in his entire life."I'll repeat it as many times as you want," Alex said, fed up with everything.“This place, Luster, is not your fucking place."The worker’s face was pale, they were so shocked that they didn’t dare say anything or make even the smallest move.“Explain, you bastard,” Luster demanded, his voice seething with fury his body trembling in anger.“This Total Construction has stockholders; they are the real owners. We are all just workers here, and you, despite being the general manager, are a salary eater like us. Or…”Stepping forward, Alex's eyes blazed with defiance. "Do you believe you're the boss here? Acting arrogantly all this time? Some people snap their fingers then you wouldn't find a job for the rest of your life."“Great... great... Looks like you’ve finally gone crazy,” Luster retorted, scanning the room.“All

"Guys, what are you doing here?" The sudden, sweet call in the tense room was like a melody, instantly turning all heads and calming the stormy air.They all turned toward the source, beholding a vision of goddess beauty with luxury clothes.A woman with her long, wavy hair cascading over her shoulders, her movements radiated grace and elegance. Her smile, warm and inviting, seemed to thaw even the iciest demeanour, carrying with her an autumnal aura."Miss Sophia," Lucas stammered, hastily releasing Alex's collar as everyone, trying to get a good side of Sophia, returned to their chairs.Sophia Deneuve, in her twenties, was the golden apple of the wealthy Deneuve family, the CEO of Deneuve Hotel, and top 3 goddess in the Blackwood City."Hello, guys," Sophia's melodious voice dissolved the tension, her elegant floral perfume lingering, enchanting everyone present."Hi, Miss Sophia," the men responded, their faces lighting up with an almost foolish delight. To them, Sophia was like an

“What’s impossible?” Sophia asked with disbelief."A friendship between a man and a woman will never work out," Alex said, his fingers flying over the keyboard as he finished his last obligation to others."Women will try to use men for free, and men will fight to enter a woman's bed."“And Sophia Deneuve, I’ve gotten too close to understand you. You're just going to use me to fight for your ambition. I'm not interested in that game.”Sophia struck her most charming pose, opening up her shirt slightly and placing one leg in front of Alex, showcasing the perfect curves of her body. “Don’t you think I’m pretty?”“Move away,” Alex pushed her back without a second glance and took a ruler from the table to put in his box. “We both know your charm never work on me.”Alex had grown up in the Royal Castle, surrounded by thousands of beauties trying to sneak into his bed every day.He had become immune to these types of seduction.“Damn, how can my charm never work on you?” Sophia said, frustra

Meanwhile, Alex finished his last job and gathered his personal belongings from his table drawer: basic construction tools like rulers, hammers, and miscellaneous gear, all acquired with his hard-earned salary.They were inexpensive, but he saw them as keepsakes for reminiscent of his incognito days.“Alex, if I get fired, I’ll look for you,” said Lucas angrily.“Just you wait, I will never let you off,” stated Jack.“I might take some workers to hit you if you dare to report me,” threatened Peter.Alex turned a deaf ear to all of them. "For him, they're all finished. Why bother with them anymore?"His basic smart wrist device began to vibrate softly, signaling an incoming call.When he saw it was from Sophia, he moved to find a quiet place to take the call."What final assistance can I provide for you, Miss Sophia?" Alex inquired, intending to dispose of this smart device on the aircraft along later with all his connections in this city.However, instead of a direct reply, all Alex co

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. Losing face as king was unthinkable."Stop him!" he roared.Boom! Boom! Boom!Van’s magic blast hurtled toward Arthur, erupting into a series of violent explosions on impact.Amidst the chaos, Alex’s eyes snapped open within the heart of the Thousand Beast Array.The connection between the first and second arrays was complete.His voice cut through the air, cold and absolute. “You think you can leave without my permission?”The atmosphere thickened, solidifying into an unseen cage.Five black gold rank beasts materialized without a sound, encircling Van.They were trapping Van exactly where he stood.Van recoiled, disbelief and rage twisting his features.“Low rank beasts!” he snarled.He tried to break throu

Howard felt the chaos closing in as voices erupted like gunshots across the hall, sharp and merciless:“The Bolton Family betrayed Miracle City!”“Surround them—no one escapes!”The accusation cut deeper than steel, igniting a fury that darkened every eye with murderous intent.Every family here had lost blood to the Outlaw, had buried kin butchered by betrayal, and now the Bolton name carried that stain of treason—unforgivable and deadly.Yet the Bolton Family’s elders wore cold, confident smiles, mocking the crowd’s rage.With a flick of their hands, darkness surged from their hidden scrolls, unleashing a poison storm—deadly gas filled the air, tearing through warriors and painting the floor crimson with spilled blood.Hundreds fell in mere breaths.The Bolton elders ascended slowly, wrapped in swirling darkness, eyes lit by cruel satisfaction, certain their poison storm would crush any resistance.But Alex stood before them, unshaken.His voice rang out, iron striking stone, echoin
