On the night after reunion event, Sophia stood on the balcony of her penthouse, her gaze lost in the city lights below feeling the cold of wind around her hair.

It seemed she had a lot on her mind. Alex entered the balcony, two cups of hot ginger tea in his hands, which he placed on the table beside her.

"What are you thinking about?" Alex asked gently.

"Alex," Sophia started, unable to contain herself any longer. "About the wedding, my friends are already asking questions. What's on your mind? I can't stop worrying about it."

Alex paused, debating whether he should keep the wedding location a secret since the day was fast approaching.

"Alex, do we have enough money for the wedding? I can help if you need," Sophia offered earnestly.

Instead of answering directly, Alex picked up a piece of paper from the table and scribbled down an address and a date.

"Our wedding will be held here, and everything is already arranged. You don’t need to worry about anything," he assured her, handing her

    The next day, at the entrance of the twelfth-floor building."Carlo Gotti," Jerry called out to a man who was once among Sophia’s fans.They had met in a nightclub about three years ago, and Carlo was known both as a playboy and as the Gotti’s mafia family's second son, who's now in charge of overseeing the Gotti’s mafia branch on Blackwood.At that time, Carlo had asked Jerry to help him connect with Sophia.However, since Sophia was at college in the capital city, it never happened. Since then, Jerry had tried to avoid Carlo, as he didn't like being associated with him.But now, he needed Carlo to help him marry Victoria.Carlo glanced at Jerry and then at the beautiful woman by his side."Oh my, goddess, you are so beautiful. You must be an angel from heaven," he exclaimed.Adorned with numerous gold rings and necklaces, and wearing dark sunglasses, Carlo quickly removed his glasses to get a clearer view of Victoria's face and body.He politely took Victoria's hand and kissed it wh

    Carlo Gotti laughed harshly. "Come on, Victoria, you can't just cancel things like this. Do you realize I've prepared for 200 people at today’s event? Can you even fathom how much it costs for them to stay here?”“I will pay you,” Victoria retorted, her voice trembling slightly still trying to appear tough. “Just tell me how much you want.”“Come, sit down first. We can talk about the money later. We all friends, for now, give me Alex’s number; let me call him this time.”“I don’t want to.”Carlos stood abruptly and slammed a wine bottle near Victoria’s feet. The glass shattered on the marble floor, and the red liquid spilled around Victoria's feet. "You'd better sit back down while I'm still being polite," he warned.Fear swiftly enveloped Victoria, spreading through her body like a chilling wind. She walked back to the couch.“Be a good girl,” Carlo said forcefully as he took Victoria’s smartphone from her hand and dialed Alex using the recent calls list, this time opting for a vide

    Carlo Gutti laughed menacingly, “You will die! You don’t know who you are fighting!”“All dead men are the same in front of me,” Alex retorted, firing a shot at the intercom, which caused a loud buzzing on the other side.He had checked the caller ID on the intercom, clearly marked with '12th floor'. That would be his target.Carlo quickly glanced at the first-floor screen, but it only showed a black screen with the words 'no connection.' As he tried to check the second floor, the screen suddenly went blank.He attempted to contact the people on the second floor, but no one responded to the intercom.While he was still trying to understand what was happening, the third-floor screen also began to fade to black.Carlo knew something must be happening. “Go tell everyone to prepare. We have locked down the elevators, so he must be using the stairs. Tell people to blockade all stair access. Use all our weapons. He may not be alone.”The two bodyguards quickly rushed out.Carlo, controlling

    Alex used his inner energy to enhance his vision in the dark room and could see a bit.He walked to Victoria and grabbed her wrist, sending his inner energy to slow the poison's spread and bring her some clarity."Where am I?" she asked, her voice trembling."We're locked in the safe room.""Am I blind?" she asked, panic rising as she realized she couldn't see."No, we're in a closed room, and Carlo locked us in here, waiting for us to die from lack of oxygen.""Who are you?" Victoria suddenly panicked, trying to forcefully pull away from Alex's hand. "Let me go!""If I let go, the poison will spread quickly, and you'll lose your sanity again.""What happened to me?""I think you drank a lust poison that makes you feel intense desire. If you don't have sex in 30 minutes, your blood will rush to your head and destroy your head’s nerves."Victoria slowly remembered everything. "Can you help me?" Victoria asked, desperation in her voice."No, I can only use my energy to slow the poison f

    Ten minutes ago.Alex, inside the dark room, had just finished treating Victoria with his manly act. He put Victoria to sleep with his inner energy and dressed her.He glanced at his device to check the time.Before entering the building, he had reported to Lavinia that if he hadn't walked out within an hour, they must send a special force to storm the building.It was still 15 minutes before the special force was to enter.Suddenly, the lights flicked on, and Alex realized someone was trying to enter the room.He hid in a blind spot, waiting for the person to approach Victoria. As the door opened, he waited until the person moved closer to help Victoria.When Alex aimed to shoot, he recognized Jerry Deneuve, his cousin-in-law, and cancelled the shot, opting to knock him out instead.Even he hated this cousin, it was not right to kill a cousin, right?Alex walked out and found Carlo's dead body. This meant all the enemies had been defeated. He contacted Lavinia with his device. "No ne

    Inside the council chamber, Alexander led his followers to the right-side meeting room, where a tense discussion was taking place.Christopher and his followers occupied the left-side meeting room.Alexander looked at his followers and asked, “I never ordered the killing of Christopher’s followers. Did any of you do that?”Ivan spoke first, his voice firm, “None of us did it. I think they’re doing it themselves to tarnish your name and find a way to take the throne.”“Yeah,” one of the nobles added, nodding in agreement.“I don’t think it’s a good time to war with Christopher,” another noble interjected. “The Drakonia Federation is waiting for us to show any weakness, and they’ll attack our empire.”“No worries,” Ivan Romanov added confidently. “Just attack Christopher and finish the civil war in a day. They won’t stand a chance with the god of war on our side.”Alexander sighed, contemplating the advice. “Alright. I will only place soldiers on the border city during the war and deplo

    Sophia looked around the empty penthouse, her heart heavy with worry. Alex had been unreachable for two days and hadn't come home.Their wedding was only four days away. Usually, she would see his smiling face waiting for her at home, dinner prepared, or he would show up at her office to share lunch.But lately, there had been nothing.Her parents and family had started to interfere, their doubts and accusations weighing on her mind."Sophia, that man is ashamed he can't hold the grandest wedding, so he ran away!" her mother had yelled two days ago.Yesterday, her father brought Victoria to pressure Sophia into signing divorce papers."Why are you suddenly on their side?" Sophia asked Victoria, her voice trembling. "Aren't you my best friend? You promised to help me."Victoria looked apologetically at Sophia. "I want to tell you a secret. After you know it, you will surely change your mind.""What?" Sophia's confusion deepened."Jerry Deneuve is not a Jerry Deneuve!" Victoria exclaime

    Grandma Deneuve looked down at Sophia, her eyes filled with satisfaction. "You finally came here. I told you that man was no good for you, but you didn't believe me. Now he's run away from you. How much money did he steal from you already?""Alex didn't steal any money from me!" Sophia replied, her voice trembling with disbelief. How could they reach that kind of thinking?"Too ashamed to admit it?" Grandma Deneuve sneered. "You finally taste your own mistake."All of Sophia's family laughed at her, their mocking laughter filling the room and echoing off the walls.Andrew Deneuve, the first uncle, added, "Sophia, Jerry has become the new CEO of the Deneuve business. He's checked the account books and found that when you were the CEO, you stole money from our family business. I believe the money you stole was used to rent this wedding venue.""What kind of bullshit are you talking about?" Sophia's emotions peaked, her face flushed with anger.

    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

    Mateo and Jose scoffed like they had something foul caught in their throats.They couldn’t fathom why the almighty Alchemist Guild would even bother dealing with the Steel Family.They’d sent their own lackeys to snoop around, but came up empty.Now, tension clogged the air inside the private gallery.Rudolf and Alex sat off to the side, enjoying their tea and keeping quiet.This was a clash among heads of noble houses; neither man felt any need to join the bickering—unless it served them.Rudolf leaned in toward Alex.He whispered, “Ramirez and Sanchez have always strutted around like roosters. When the Steel Family was in the gutter, they tried to buy up our land for pocket change.”“We knew who was behind it and refused. Later, during the Bolton crackdown on us, these two vultures swooped in and snatched our trade routes.”At that, Alex narrowed his eyes at Mateo and Jose.Petty spats among small clan heads never interested him.But since these two were Bolton’s lapdogs, they had t
