Vincent is surprised when Romeo stops his hand, which shocks everyone. The two stared at each other sharply.

"Let go!" Vincent's jaw hardened, trying to remove his hand from Romeo's grip.

Romeo ignored Vincent's request. Instead, he tightened his grip on the man's arm. "Why do you want to hurt this woman? Even though you like her."

Vincent hardened his jaw even more in annoyance. "None of your business, damn it! You have no right to interfere in anything."

Romeo looked at him coldly, a hint of a smile on one corner of his lips. "When the woman you like doesn't like you, you act like this."

Alice, who was shocked by what Romeo did, seemed to stand still on the spot with teary eyes. She was really shocked because she was almost slapped by a man. But what was even more surprising was that Romeo protected her.

Alice looked at Romeo without blinking at all for a few seconds. At that moment, she felt that Romeo looked really cool. Somehow, it felt different. The wind, which slightly blew th

    Romeo was meditating. Sitting cross-legged, he closed his eyes with his hands on his thighs. Sweat was pouring down his half-naked body. His muscles were hardened. He focused on his inner strength, calming himself down. His wet black hair clung to his forehead and nape. His breathing was calm and regular.The temperature in his body rose warmer than before as he tried to concentrate the pressure on a single point. Occasionally, his forehead would furrow deeply, then he would close his eyes slowly as he breathed in deeply and exhaled slowly.However, suddenly, his chest felt more painful, and he coughed a few times, then pressed his chest until the coughing stopped.Romeo adjusted his breathing, pausing when he saw a small spot of blood on his palm. He tried too hard. "It's still quite difficult." His throat felt constricted, like a lump had stuck there, making it difficult for him to breathe for a while. His energy was drained quite a bit from over-focusing, but calmness managed to t

    Romeo finally went to Mount Salva alone. As he had anticipated, in just two hours, he had reached the foot of the mountain, where people who visited the mountain parked their vehicles. Although quite close to the settlement, he was still very far from the mountain where his destination was. Romeo got out of the car and began to slowly make his way up Mount Salva. Compared to some of the mountains around the area, Mount Salva was a very large mountain. Some of it was arid, and some of it was not, but the most gripping and terrifying thing about the mountain was that the trees were so dense that it seemed as if the person who went inside was being devoured by the mountain. Especially at night, that's why people avoided coming at night.Now Romeo was stepping further into the mountain. With makeshift equipment, without any preparation, and only relying on the lighting from his cellphone, he continued to step into the forest full of trees until a bright light dazzled his vision. "Hey, w

    Master Hans laughed as his attempt to surprise Romeo failed. He had imagined the man's surprised expression, but Romeo could sense his presence."Romeo." Master Hans raised his arms widely with a happy smile. "Oh, I'm so glad to see you again after a long absence." He approached in a friendly manner."Master." Romeo welcomed the hug from Master Hans. They hugged warmly for quite a while.A warm pat landed on Romeo's back. Master Hans released his embrace, then looked at him with a curious frown. "Why are you here?"This was a place very far from where Romeo lived now, so Master Hans was curious about what had brought Romeo all the way here at night."You, right, know what happened to me." Romeo raised his eyebrows as if there was a slightly cheap feeling on that face of his.Master Hans also nodded his head while stroking his chin. He was actually quite surprised when he saw from a distance that Romeo was alone in the middle of the forest almost at midnight; apparently, he was in trou

    After tea, Romeo called Andrew to give him some news. The line went straight through, and Andrew was excited to hear Romeo's call."How are you, Master?" Andrew's voice sounded full of worry."Fine." Romeo took off the scarf around his neck while sitting on a chair in the cottage. "I would like you to inform the college that I will be absent for one week."Andrew nodded his head, understanding Romeo's words. "Alright, Master. No problem at all. I will take care of the permission letter for you."Romeo nodded his head. "Yes, just arrange everything." He hung up the phone and went to rest because tomorrow he would be doing training with Master Hans.Andrew actually felt worried and thought about what Romeo would do, especially considering the recent events at his master's campus, which was having problems. However, he couldn't do anything and just carried out orders.The next day, Andrew came to Romeo's college and gave a letter of permission to the principal. Of course, this raised que

    Another week passed, and Romeo was training with Master Hans. They fought very fiercely, and Romeo used his little power. Several attacks shot out quickly, trying to touch and knock Master Hans down, but just like before, he couldn't knock his teacher down right away. The moment he balanced the power inside him, he managed to knock Master Hans down.Master Hans chuckled as he felt his chest ache slightly, then Romeo touched his arm and rubbed the old man's chest out of concern that the internal force he had released had hurt Master Hans."Are you alright?" Romeo showed his concern with tenderness, and Master Hans responded with a nod of his head while smiling proudly."You're doing great." Master Hans patted Romeo's back lightly. "You've been able to balance the power within you."Romeo nodded. "Yes, I've been able to manage my power well even though it hasn't returned completely."Master Hans nodded. "Yes, because what your father did was to prepare your body to become stronger."Rom

    Romeo had returned to campus, and of course, his arrival surprised everyone and again made him the centre of attention."Oh, he came back in." Whispers from the students were heard. "I thought he was expelled for causing trouble in the cafeteria back then, but how did this happen?""He's been off campus for a week, and I thought he wasn't going to come back." They looked at each other questioningly while Romeo was still casually walking in the centre of everyone's attention.The news about Romeo no longer coming to campus was spread because Vincent had made the strange news that Romeo did not dare to come to campus after confronting him. Of course, Romeo's absence for one week made people feel sure that Vincent's news was true, so they were surprised to see his arrival again.Meanwhile, from a distance, a woman was watching Romeo with a very happy face, and even her eyes sparkled watching him."I thought that Romeo was not expelled at all and look at the proof that he came back to cam

    Hearing that question, the four people behind him were curious about Romeo's relationship with Professor Arnold."You must have cheated to win Professor Arnold's favor, right?" One of them also spoke up. "Just tell me that your good grades were all a fabrication.""Yeah, it's impossible for someone to always get perfect grades in a subject, " the others replied haughtily.They were a study group filled with smart people on campus, and when they heard that Romeo got good grades in all subjects, the group of smart people was surprised because even they never got perfect grades in all subjects."You must have bought grades, or maybe you bribed Professor Arnold so he would be nice to you?" they chuckled, their expressions condescending.Romeo Who heard that and found it funny? How could one buy grades? Of course, those perfect grades were purely the result of his thinking. Being in this situation made him understand that those people were the ones who envied him.Romeo looked at the five

    Romeo had returned to his home. He returned to meditation to smoothen the flow of power within him. His breathing was regular, and his sweat flowed slowly down his broad chest.Andrew, who was watching Romeo, was amazed at the change in his Master, especially when Romeo opened his eyes slowly, and a small wind appeared to extinguish the flames in the candles around him.Romeo took a towel and wiped the sweat from his face, neck, and chest while Andrew looked down at the doorway."Come in." Romeo invited his servant to enter without turning around.Andrew went inside politely, approaching Romeo. "Master, you're even better now that you've met Master Hans." Romeo nodded his head. "Oh, yes." He acknowledged that and felt that now his abilities had begun to stabilize and could be managed well.Andrew nodded when he saw that Romeo was no longer coughing or in pain every time he meditated, which was a very good development compared to before.Romeo put down the towel in his hand, looking a

    The southern part of Evarlan Island—the place where Romeo was now.Carl’s Beach Club, a well-known luxury venue. Even if you were the child of a wealthy family, entry wasn’t easy. There were many requirements to meet.Getting an invitation to this club was like finding a golden ticket. It wasn’t just a gathering place for the rich, but also for those who hid their identities—whether to avoid being targeted or for other reasons.No one dared approach this area unless they had the guts and the skills to back it up. At least 30 meters from every side of the club, the surroundings were completely empty, eerily quiet.“I never thought I’d be here.” A man walking past Romeo spoke to his friend.There were several conversations happening around him, snippets of chatter reaching his ears. But Romeo remained focused on his now-empty glass. His father had told him to relax and have fun—something he didn’t quite understand. So, he took this as an opportunity to try anything that seemed interesti

    Romeo saw her but ignored her, continuing to walk away. Violet didn’t give up and walked beside him."It seems that you started that bet because of me," Violet said confidently.She knew that Justin had been after her for a long time, but she never liked him. To her, he wasn’t a man with potential and didn’t match her type. He wasn’t attractive enough, though she had taken advantage of him several times.That wasn’t enough."No one is fighting over you," Romeo replied curtly as he checked a message on his phone."Don’t be shy. I already know that man desires me—and so do you." Violet twirled a strand of her hair repeatedly.From the moment she saw Romeo, she was interested in him. He was handsome and far wealthier than Justin. To her, this was a jackpot—an opportunity to live comfortably."I’ll allow you to date me," she declared with confidence, thinking about the things she could gain from him.She was also intrigued by Romeo’s villa. It must be luxurious, and she could show it off

    Everyone was stunned by Romeo’s actions. The power behind his strike was immense, sending the ball crashing down near Justin’s position. A long silence followed as they all stared at the ball, which seemed to emit a faint wisp of smoke.Justin’s gaze sharpened. He couldn't believe what had just happened, and his mind was already set on doing something ruthless to Romeo."Wow, you didn’t score any points because you crossed the line," he said with a smirk.Justin was convinced that this spoiled man had never played volleyball before and didn’t know the rules well. With that in mind, he thought winning would be easy.But then, as his eyes accidentally met Violet’s, Romeo’s face lit up with excitement, and he quickly waved at her. It was clear he had just noticed the woman he liked."I did that on purpose. It was a warning."Hearing Romeo’s words, Justin turned back to him, while the others began whispering among themselves."What’s with that guy?""Isn’t he just acting arrogant because

    His head throbbed with pain, and he clutched it repeatedly, exhaling over and over again.Blinking several times, he looked around, only to find himself surrounded by his friends. The atmosphere felt unbearably uncomfortable for him."Ah! W-what is happening!?" he shouted, utterly shocked by the situation.His gaze flickered toward the woman he liked, who was staring at him. His face turned red, and he quickly stood up. Without hesitation, Justin hurried away from the scene, his friends immediately following behind him."Justin! Wait for us!""Justin, didn't you hear what we were saying?""Justin!"His friends called out loudly, their voices only making Justin clench his fists tighter.Once he felt he had put enough distance between them, Justin finally stopped walking and turned to face his friends."Damn it! That guy must have knocked me out!" he growled, clenching his fists even tighter.He hadn't even realized how Romeo had attacked him. In fact, Justin was someone who exercised r

    “You still haven’t found my son?”A heavy, oppressive voice rang out, followed by the sharp sound of a cane striking the floor.His gaze was piercing, his hardened face terrifying to everyone in the room.“We haven’t found any traces of the young master, Lord Baxton.”They spoke with fear. The search had gone on for three days, yet the one they sought was nowhere to be found.“How is that possible?! You need to search harder than this!”Baxton’s face turned red with fury. Amman was a strong child—destined to be the heir of the Hugnes family. His fists clenched tightly as frustration burned within him.“Something must have happened. Amman wouldn’t just vanish. There must be an enemy behind this.”His blood boiled. If anything had happened to his son, he wouldn’t hold back. If Amman was hurt—he would do whatever it took to make those responsible pay.“I only heard that Young Master Amman intended to visit Lord Taylor, Lord Baxton.”One of the black-clad men in front of him finally spoke

    Romeo’s instincts immediately told him that this man was no ordinary person. His attention was quickly drawn to him, even more so than to the so-called top graduate who had been trying to challenge him.The man moved slowly toward Romeo.“I came here by coincidence… and because I was reminded of a foolish brother.”The way he spoke piqued Romeo’s curiosity. There were many people who had clashed with him in the past.“Now I understand why he seemed so terrified.”A faint smirk crossed the man’s face, laced with malicious intent. Being in this place was something Romeo disliked—he would attract too much attention, which was far from an ideal situation.As Romeo took a step forward, the man did the same. Two skilled fighters, both reading each other’s intentions without words.“We need to talk.”But just as Romeo spoke, the man halted his steps and glanced at a nearby building—one currently under renovation, rarely visited by anyone. It was indeed a suitable place.Both of them headed t

    Everyone already knew who held the highest score in their university. And, as usual, this didn’t just attract attention from their own students but also from students at other universities.This was because their university was considered exceptional, with high standards. Whenever people found out who the true top scorer was, they would often try to challenge them, claiming to be superior.So, during this graduation ceremony, everyone secretly searched for Romeo—the name that had become widely known and was now the center of attention. He was easy to spot, thanks to the beautiful woman clinging to him.But in reality, Romeo himself was also a handsome man. After repeatedly making surprising moves and even arriving on campus in a luxury car, he had naturally drawn even more attention from women.Alice was well aware of this, and she didn’t like the way those women acted around him. She scoffed. "They’re so annoying."She complained beside Romeo, who, from the very beginning, had no int

    Gina hurriedly approached her father, unsure why he was acting that way. The situation worried her, especially with so many people watching.“Father, what are you doing?” she asked, glancing around anxiously.“I’m doing the right thing,” Mr. Carlos replied calmly.But that didn’t ease Gina’s panic at all. Romeo could feel the weight of everyone's attention, and he wasn’t ready for his identity to be exposed.“It would be best if we discussed this somewhere more private,” he suggested.Mr. Carlos immediately responded, understanding the discomfort of the situation. Soon, they found themselves in a more private setting, joined by a woman who still looked confused.She had been wondering about her father’s strange behavior, her curiosity growing stronger. After all, her father was a rigid man, someone who didn’t act impulsively.Letting out a breath, she sat beside him, quietly observing what would happen next.“I never expected to meet you,” Mr. Carlos spoke with a composed tone, his ey

    A man almost lunged at Romeo, shocked by what he had just seen. But fortunately, he was stopped by Carlos, who was present at the scene. At that moment, he sensed something different about Romeo.Even seeing Gina’s reaction, who had spoken with this man earlier, he was sure that Romeo was no ordinary man. The way Romeo moved—with certainty and precision—was clearly something that could only be achieved through extensive experience.“Mr. Carlos, don’t stop me.”Carlos looked at him coldly. “It’s better if you watch and see what happens first.”The man was intimidated by Carlos’s pressure and immediately fell silent. At that moment, he slowly turned his gaze back to Fedric—the man who had seemed weak just moments ago, unable to move at all, was now wiping the blood from his mouth.His reaction caught everyone’s attention, making them more at ease.“Mr. Fedric, are you feeling better?” the doctor quickly asked, keeping a close watch on him.The pale color on Fedric’s face had faded, and
