Jason stood in the middle of the fancy store, his heart pounding like a drum in his chest. This was his first time doing this, and he could feel the weight of everyone’s eyes on him, which made him uncomfortable; the look on their faces, he could tell they were judging him.

He knew they were waiting for him to make a fool of himself, so they could all laughed at him, but Jason wasn’t about to give them that satisfaction they think they are going to have.

He wasn’t going to back down; no matter how much they laughed or sneered at him, he's going to get the suit he wants.

Jeremy, smug grin, leaned casually against a display case, his arm draped around his girlfriend’s shoulders.

“Look at him.”

Jeremy said loudly, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

“He’s asking for the most expensive thing in the store! Can you believe it? What a joke! He probably doesn’t even know where he is; he must be thinking here is some kind of a roadside store.”

Jeremy smiled.

“I tried to advise him as a friend,

    Jeremy and the rest were frozen in their positions when they saw the manager walk in. Their eyes were wide with shock, and some of them even gasped. It was clear they hadn’t expected to see him there.Jeremy, still a bit nervous, tried to explain the situation.“Sir Jason is poor and needs help; he can't afford anything here.”However, the manager didn't listen to what Jeremy just said; instead, he looked at them with a serious face and said.“Mr.Jason might be poor, but that doesn’t mean he’s not smart. He knows more than you think.”The words hung in the air, making Jeremy and his friends feel even more surprised.Jeremy, still unsure of what was happening; he didn't want to make any mistakes, quickly pointed at Jason.“It’s him, sir.” Jeremy said, his voice dripping with mockery.“But he’s just wasting your time. Jason’s poor! He can’t afford something like that, please don't waste your energy on him, he's useless, very useless.”Jeremy realized the manager must have heard about

    Jason just smiled seeing the turn of events. The once mocking and sneering atmosphere had turned into one of stunned silence, with everyone staring at him in disbelief. The manager, after finalizing the purchase, asked where Jason would like the suit to be delivered. For a moment, Jason considered his options. He didn’t want the suit delivered to his dormitory; that would attract too much attention. Besides, he wasn’t ready to show it off just yet. It's not just yet the time and seeing the suit; they would start thinking something else even if he tells them it was fake; the quality of the suit speaks for itself, so it's a bad idea.“No, don’t deliver it.”Jason said, his voice steady and composed. “Keep it here for now. I’ll decide when to pick it up later.”The manager nodded respectfully, understanding Jason’s wish.“Of course, sir. We’ll store it safely for you. Whenever you’re ready, just let us know, and we’ll make sure it’s ready for you.”As Jason spoke, he was already forming

    Jason stepped out of the store, feeling the cool breeze brush against his face. He had just picked up some snacks and a drink, thinking about how to spend the rest of the evening after a successful shopping and finally getting his revenge on Jeremy. When his phone buzzed in his pocket, startling him a little.It was an unknown caller. Jason stared at the screen for a moment, unsure whether to pick it up or not. Finally, with a slight hesitation, he answered the call.“Hello?” Jason said, his voice steady but curious.“Jason, it’s Camila Joseph.”A familiar yet distant voice spoke on the other end. “I’ve heard everything from Summer. I’m sending someone to pick you up. Make sure you dress up nicely.”At that moment, Jason’s mind raced, hearing Camila Joseph's voice. He hadn’t expected her to call, especially not today. He thought it would take weeks or months, but why so fast? There was a brief pause as he processed what Camilla just said.“Okay, I’ll be ready.”Jason replied, tryi

    At that moment, Jason stood protectively in front of the young girl. Her eyes were wide with fear, her body trembling as she clung to the hope that Jason could save her.Jason still doesn't understand what is going on. He gazed around, and he couldn't see anyone, and the girl had refused to say anything.Without being told, he could tell she is scared to the core.Jason face her again and was about to say something when seven rough-looking men emerged from the shadows.Upon seeing the men, the little girl's hope began to falter. She thought she had successfully run away, and with someone here, they wouldn't be able to get her, but she was wrong. These men looked like ruffians, with hardened faces and cruel smiles—the kind that made someone stomach twist in knots.One of the ruffians, a tall, muscular man with a scar running down his cheek, stepped forward. His voice was rough and commanding.“The boss is waiting inside. Come with us now and make things easy for yourself.”His word

    His face set in a serious expression as he asked her the question.His eyes were cold, and his jaw was tight, showing that he was ready for whatever was coming.However, the girl's hands started shaking as she tried to keep up with the fast pace of everything that had happened to her. She looked scared, her eyes wide, and her breathing quick and shallow.The girl glanced at Jason, her voice trembling as she said.“You don’t know what you’re doing. The boss of these rascals—he’s an underground lord. This is his territory. No one dares to offend him here and i mean no one because he controls everything.”Her voice was small, like she was afraid that someone might hear her and tell the boss that she was saying something to a stranger.Jason didn’t get his gaze off her. He didn’t even look at her to make her feel comfortable, but instead he wants to end every mess that is going on in her life. She is too young for it. “I don’t care who the boss is.” He said calmly, his voice steady b

    The door to the private room flew open with a loud bang, startling everyone inside. They all gazed at Jason with dead eyes. The Junior Master, a tall man with a low beard and a cruel look in his eyes, turned his head sharply toward the sound. He was sitting at a long table surrounded by ten of his most loyal and tough men, all of them looking really large and intimidating. Their laughter died down as they saw who had entered.Jason walked in calmly, and immediately the girl ran to him. She wanted to hold his hand and tell Jason to run away, but she couldn't get to Jason in time, and she followed him closely from behind. Her hands were trembling, and her face was pale, showing how scared she was; she never expected herself to come back here again.The Junior Master’s eyes narrowed when he saw her, but then he smirked, thinking that Jason had captured her and brought her back.“Ah, you caught her!” The junior master said with a sneer. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a thi

    The room was silent as what Jason said kept echoing in the air.Jason stood tall, his face hard and expressionless, and his eyes were cold as ice. He picked up the knife on a food plate.He held the knife in his hand like someone who is ready to use it without hesitating. Its knife blade was glinting in the low light. His grip was firm, and there was no hesitation in his movements.He looked straight ahead, ignoring any little sympathy he was having in his mind around; he's a beast, and he's not going to have sympathy for a human who see himself as a beast. At that moment, The Junior Master, a young man who usually carried himself with pride, now find himself in a situation that tested his every nerve. The Junior Master, though, was trying to appear confident he couldn't just give his fear away; he decided to hide the tremor in his voice as he spoke.“You’ve made a mistake, young man.” The Junior Master said, his voice shaky but laced with a forced authority. “You don’t know who

    Jason's words were short and straight forward, the underground master knowing the Hades clans were involved in the situation now, the underground master knowing he must obey, he couldn't hesitate to look at Jason with fear. He knew he had no choice. Jason's words were always short and straightforward, but they carried a weight that could crush a mountain.“Cut one of his fingers.”Jason said again, his voice steady, but this time, with the look on his face, one could tell he can do anything and destroy them with just his order.The master hesitated for just a moment before making his mind up; he knew better than to argue at this moment. His hands started shaking as he held the knife tightly, and his vein started showing in his already weak hands.The junior master stared at his father with wide, terrified eyes. His lips quivered, and tears began to spill down his cheeks even more. He can't escape now; if his father can't do anything, it means he too can't do anything either. He cou

    Summer's voice trembled with rage as she turned sharply toward the door. Her eyes flared as they met her sister's smug expression.“What are you doing there?” Summer snapped, her hands balling into fists at her sides. “Were you standing there the whole time?”Her sister leaned against the doorframe casually, arms folded, a knowing grin spreading across her lips. “I knew it,” she said, her tone light but laced with mockery. “You like him. You actually like Jason.”Summer’s stomach clenched. Her heart pounded against her ribs, not from fear, but from embarrassment and fury. She stepped forward, her face tight with anger. “What are you even talking about?” she hissed. “You were eavesdropping? On me?”“I don’t need to eavesdrop,” her sister said with a roll of her eyes. “You were basically screaming. Crying over a guy who took someone else to Pasu Mikazu. That doesn’t sound like a girl who doesn’t care.”Summer’s breath caught in her throat. Her cheeks flushed. She didn’t like this feelin

    Jason stepped away from the soft music and laughter echoing inside Paso Mikazu, standing beside a quiet corner where the call with Summer could come through clearly. Her voice came through low but sharp, laced with something he couldn’t quite place at first—until her tone began to twist."So you’re really there... with Camilla?" Summer asked. Her voice was calm, too calm, but Jason caught the edge in it. It wasn’t the usual Summer. It sounded like... restraint. Jealousy?Jason’s brows furrowed. “Yeah... today’s her birthday. I wanted it to be special for her,” he said honestly. “Why are you sounding like that?”“Like what?” she said, a little too quickly.“Summer, why are you reacting this way? Why do you sound so... off?” he asked, rubbing his temple with his free hand. “Is it because of Paso Mikazu?”Silence.Jason exhaled softly, trying not to overthink it. “Look... the truth is, that’s why I called you earlier. I wanted to tell you that anytime you’re free, just say it, and we’ll

    Camilla didn’t say much after Jason’s reply, but her silence was loud. Her jaw tightened ever so slightly, her smile faded in the corners, and her hands, which had once been calmly placed on her lap, were now locked together too tightly. She had been observing, quietly. She always did. And what she was seeing now didn’t sit right with her.‘Summer.’The name alone was enough to stir something in her chest. It wasn’t that she was insecure—far from it. But it was the way Jason spoke about her. The ease in his voice, the calmness, that small smile he always wore whenever Soma’s name was brought up. Camilla saw it. She always saw everything.Jason’s explanation sounded honest. It always did. But something in her gut told her there was more behind Summer’s call. And for some reason, that made her even more upset. Her gaze dropped to her untouched glass of fruit wine. The sparkle in her eyes dimmed, just slightly.Ever since Jason came into her life, things had been different. Unpredictable

    Jason held the phone close to his ear, his brow furrowed. The noise from the softly playing instrumental music inside Pasu Mikazu faded into the background as Summer’s voice filtered through.“Jason,” she said, her tone quieter now, but not calm—more like something was being held back. “You’re with Camilla right?”Jason didn’t lie. “Yes… I’m at Pasu Mikazu. It’s her birthday today.”Jason said again, however There was a pause on the other end, and Jason could hear Summer’s faint breath.“Oh,” Summer finally said, her voice flat. “So, no one thought I was worthy enough to be invited too, huh? That’s… interesting.”Jason opened his mouth, but no words came out. The guilt settled in, even though he hadn’t meant it that way. Before he could explain, Summer continued, letting out a soft, bitter laugh.“I mean… I’ve never even stepped foot in Pasu Mikazu before,” she said. “But I guess some girls get first-time privileges.”Jason leaned back slightly, resting his head on the back of the cha

    As the suited waiter stepped aside gracefully, he gestured toward the hallway leading to the grand tasting room. “According to the ticket given to you,” he said in a clear and composed voice, “you’ve also been granted the privilege to live stream during your visit. However, I must respectfully remind you—there are certain boundaries.”He bowed his head slightly, maintaining a gentle tone. “The house-special drinks and delicacies prepared exclusively by Pasu Mikazu chefs are part of our confidential culinary signature. Those may not be recorded or streamed. But for everything else—the live cooking, the architecture, even the presentations—you may capture as much as you like.”At that moment Camilla blinked twice, still taking in the glow of the floor tiles beneath her feet. Her mouth parted slightly as if to speak, but all she could say was, “Wow.”Her friend, still gaping at the walls glittering with soft golden accents and hand-carved art, reached for Jason’s arm without realizing it

    As soon as the glass doors of Pasu Mikazu slid open and Jason, Camilla, and her friend stepped inside, it was as if they had walked into a different world entirely.For a moment, none of them said a word, the silence wasn’t awkward—it was reverent.The air inside carried a faint floral scent, soft like morning dew. The walls glowed, not from paint or wallpaper, but from something far more delicate—an opalescent finish that shimmered under the ambient lighting, like crushed pearls set into marble. The entire floor reflected their movements like a perfect mirror, smooth, pristine, and warm underfoot.At that moment Camilla froze mid-step.“Jason…” she whispered, her eyes wide, voice nearly stolen by awe, “this place…”Even her friend—usually the one who always had something sarcastic to say—had her mouth slightly open. “Are we… are we standing inside a dream?”It wasn’t just beautiful, It was unreal.Everything looked as if it had been designed by a deity with taste finer than anything

    At that moment A thick silence swept over the entire entrance of PASUMI KAZU.For a second, no one moved. Not Jason. Not Camilla. Not even the security officers who had come at the former guard’s call. The air hung heavy—like it didn’t know if it should gasp or stay completely still.Everyone just… stared.Mouths slightly parted. Eyes wide. One of the four arriving security men blinked twice in disbelief, unsure if he’d just seen what he thought he did.Even Camilla’s friends across the street, who had been laughing and whispering just a moment ago, froze with their phones still held up mid-livestream. The camera capturing the moment jolted slightly as the person recording fumbled.The elegant man stood still after delivering the slap, his hand still slightly raised, as if the echo hadn’t yet finished ringing out.The security man who had been barking confidently minutes ago stood stiff. His face had turned red, not just from the slap but from confusion, fear, and sudden realization.

    The laughter from the group echoed like a cruel chorus as one of the boys sneered, “Who the hell does that guy think he is? Booking Pasumika Zoo? What is he, the president’s son?”Another girl chuckled. “More like a fraud with confidence.”They laughed louder, pointing at Jason as if mocking him gave them status. Their phones were still up, some recording, others live streaming. Every second was another notch of humiliation in their eyes.Soma stood a few steps away, her jaw clenched tight.She hadn’t said a word since hearing the news. Her arms were folded, fingernails digging into her skin. The heat in her chest wasn’t just embarrassment—it was jealousy. Sharp, sudden jealousy that curled its way through her thoughts and refused to let go.Jason is really taking Camilla… to Pasumika Zoo?Her eyes scanned the scene again, landing on Camilla’s calm face as she stood quietly beside Jason. Camilla didn’t even look worried. No tension in her shoulders, no doubt in her eyes. She just… sto

    At that moment The arrogant security guard straightened his collar and took two stiff steps toward the man in the expensive suit. Though he tried to maintain his confidence, there was a nervous flicker in his eyes. Then he cleared his throat and put on a tone that sounded respectful—on the surface.“Sir,” he began, dipping his head slightly. “Please, I apologize for the little scene you’re witnessing in front of Pasu Mikazu.”However the man in the suit remained silent, his expression unreadable, hands folded behind his back. His polished shoes gleamed under the lights.“I’ve already handled the matter,” the guard continued, trying to sound efficient. “I intercepted this group of children attempting to trespass using a fake invitation.”Immediately he jabbed a thumb behind him toward Jason, Camilla, and her friend.“That boy—him,” he said, pointing squarely at Jason without hesitation, “is a fraudster. I tried to warn him politely, sir. Told them to leave. But the fool’s been standin
