Gem Taylor, previously composed during the call, suddenly contorted his face into a mask of fury and rage as Alexander abruptly ended the call. "How dare he? That insignificant wretch. I'll ensure he suffers a gruesome fate. I will make sure to tear him apart limb from limb and feed him to the ravenous dogs."After simmering in anger for a while, Gem managed to regain his composure and proceeded to transfer the required funds. At that moment, Alexander occupied the pinnacle of his list of despised individuals. Their previous attempt to eliminate Alexander had fallen through, leaving Gem wary of any impulsive actions that could potentially backfire against him and his allies.Once he had collected himself, Gem reached for his phone and commanded, "Initiate Plan B." It appeared that he had already formulated this contingency plan, albeit with the intention of utilizing it later. However, Alexander's recent actions had forced Gem to push its implementation forward.In the meantime, Alexa
Helen, along with her personal guard and the surviving member of the duo, raised their heads in response to an unexpected silence that had descended upon the area. To their astonishment, the surroundings were surprisingly calm, devoid of any clamor or the echoes of gunfire.As they directed their gaze upward, their eyes met a distressing sight—a young girl drenched in blood amidst a sea of lifeless bodies. In that instant, Helen's recognition kicked in, and she exclaimed, "Isabel!"A wave of confusion washed over Helen as she struggled to process the situation. "But... but I was under the impression that Alexander intended to..."Interrupting her, Isabel, who had now drawn nearer, interjected, "Your assumptions were mistaken. Alexander would never inflict harm on anyone unless provoked to do so. If you possess even a shred of wisdom, you ought to realize that this is someone else's scheme—and you should already know who that someone is."Helen's face contorted with a momentary frown,
Alexander and Isabel dedicated their time to honing their fighting skills. However, there was a noticeable discrepancy in their abilities, with Isabel possessing greater strength and often emerging as the victor in their practice fights. Isabel found immense joy in triumphing over Alexander and laughed mockingly at his consistent losses.Recently, Alexander had become disheartened by his lack of progress. Frustration consumed him as he struggled to achieve any significant breakthroughs. This situation left Isabel feeling somewhat awkward and embarrassed. She understood that breaking through in martial arts cultivation required immense dedication and a considerable amount of time, yet Alexander seemed to effortlessly overcome every obstacle he faced. It was as if he possessed an innate ability to rapidly advance in his cultivation, while she had to exert more effort.Following the impact of Isabel's forceful punch, Alexander was momentarily sent sprawling, but he swiftly rose to his fe
Isabel expressed her contentment, stating, "I feel great." Yet, deep down, she felt a tinge of embarrassment, finding it hard to believe she had become so audacious. Exiting the training room, a radiant smile adorned her face. On the other hand, Monique, who had been the recipient in the training room, had regained composure and was now blushing in response to the unexpected turn of events.***Once Alexander had freshened up and enjoyed his breakfast, he eagerly beckoned Isabel to join him, exclaiming, "Isabel, come along! I am making my way to Xander Technologies." Ever since Alexander assumed control of the prestigious Forbes family's vast array of businesses, he made the bold decision to rebrand their renowned company from Forbes Technologies to the newly christened Xander Technologies. Despite the fall of the Forbes family, the news of their downfall remained unknown to the outside world due to Alexander's efforts in maintaining their prestigious image within Fairview. To the g
Alexander remained silent, refusing to answer Isabel's question and just simply drove. Meanwhile, Damien Forbes found himself utterly shocked and unable to comprehend the revelation of Alexander's true identity. The realization repeated in his mind like a broken record: "Young master G is Alexander, and Alexander is Young master G."Isabel could sense Damien's thoughts, understanding the magnitude of his astonishment, but she chose to remain silent herself. Her mind was preoccupied with concerns for Monique. It was moments like these that reinforced her initial reluctance to embrace love, knowing its potential to impact her emotions and cloud her judgment. However, Alexander's unwavering support had encouraged her to overcome her reservations and take a leap of faith. And so, despite her reservations, she proceeded with their relationship and now here they were.Alexander was driving extremely fast, causing other drivers to curse at him, but he paid no attention to their remarks. Whil
As soon as Alexander heard the old man's words, he froze in place, his body going rigid with surprise. However, he quickly recovered his composure, though deep in his mind, he couldn't help but wonder, "Has Monique betrayed me? Why would she do such a thing? What could she possibly gain from betraying me? She knows how powerful and influential the Greece family is."He forcefully pushed those thoughts out of his head and firmly replied, "I find it hard to believe what you're saying, old man. Only a foolish person would claim to be my sister when they are well aware of the countless enemies I have."Suddenly, the old man's voice filled with disdain as he sneered, "So you think you can play petty tricks with me? I must inform you that I have been playing such games long before you were even born. If this woman isn't truly your sister, then why have you come here?"Alexander couldn't help but let out a laugh, his amusement evident in his voice. "As I've already told you, my purpose in co
"Stop!!" Alexander's voice erupted instantaneously, piercing through the air. His aura surged outward, engulfing the surroundings with an overwhelming energy. At the precise moment, the old man, who had brandished his knife menacingly towards Isabel, froze abruptly. The blade was held extremely close to Isabel's vulnerable throat.Realizing the imminent danger, Alexander made a swift and brave decision. He recognized that none among their group possessed the strength to match the old man's formidable power. Even if they joined forces and fought him together, their collective strength would prove woefully insufficient. The old man undoubtedly surpassed the boundaries of the Warrior's realm, placing him in an unrivaled position."Let them all go. I'll stab myself," Alexander declared, his voice laced with resolve. He understood that sacrificing himself was the only viable means to protect his companions from the old man's malevolence.The weight of Alexander's selfless proposition hung h
A look of concentration crossed Damien's features as he spoke, his voice tinged with a hint of expertise, "Although I cannot name this particular poison, the aroma reveals its true nature to me. There was a time when I was taught the art of pill refining, but my limited talent hindered me from going further into the art."Isabel and Monique maintained a hushed silence, patiently anticipating his words. The prevailing atmosphere was punctuated only by the audibly agonized hisses emanating from Alexander. The pain he endured was excruciating, yet he exhibited remarkable self-restraint by suppressing any urge to vocalize his suffering.Damien's brow furrowed with concern as he continued, "This poison, it originates from the most obscure and treacherous sources found in abandoned mountains. Obtaining it is no simple feat, as it requires navigating through perilous terrains and locating rare, hidden materials." Pausing for a moment, he added, "However, there is a glimmer of hope amidst the
The onslaught of attacks was directed at Alexander, but rather peculiarly, it appeared as though they merely struck an invisible barrier before vanishing into thin air. This unexpected turn of events washed over Isabelle with a profound sense of relief, momentarily alleviating her apprehensions. However, her newfound comfort was abruptly replaced by a more profound sense of concern as she observed Alexander, who remained motionless, with his eyes firmly shut in an unsettling manner."Young Master!" Isabelle cried out once more, her voice trembling with anxiety, but there was still no sign of response from him.Notifying Lord Pluto and the rest of the group, she swiftly attempted to rush to Alexander's aid. However, an insurmountable obstacle barred her path, a formidable and turbulent force akin to an unyielding gale, effectively halting her advance.In a synchronized effort, both Captain Tiger and Captain Skeleton also endeavored to reach Alexander's side, but they, too, found the
Alexander wore a confident smile as he responded, "In the event of a clash between our forces, the outcome would undoubtedly be in our favor. While it's true that both of our factions possess great strength, the critical distinction lies in my approach. I don't merely seek personal power; I am dedicated to empowering my people. Behind me stand formidable martial artists and skilled weapon users, all contributing to our collective might."Captain Tiger guffawed heartily in response, "Our troops, in essence, serve as expendable pawns and sacrificial lambs – or, to put it bluntly, they're our meatshields. As leaders, it's our duty for our people to be willing to lay down their lives for us. The caveat is that we rely on their sacrifices to keep our operations afloat. Yet, as long as Captain Skeleton and I maintain our personal strength, it's sufficient to strike fear into our adversaries. This, in turn, ensures that our men don't meet their end quite so easily."With a sarcastic clap, Al
Alexander observed as Lord Pluto and his companions rose from the ground. Approaching them, he inquired, "Do you find yourselves persuaded?"Lord Pluto responded with a nod, lowering his head in acknowledgment. "Completely convinced," he affirmed.Terry and Townsend also signaled their agreement with affirmative nods. Isabelle, on the other hand, didn't need to express her belief; she had unwaveringly trusted Alexander from the beginning.Having settled the matter, Alexander addressed Isabelle with determination, saying, "There's no time for extensive preparations. Gather our people; we must march to battle immediately. Today, we shall seize control of Rhode Island."Isabelle responded with a nod, her smile reflecting her readiness, and she swiftly dispatched Terry and Townsend to carry out the orders.Alexander then turned to Lord Pluto, acknowledging the urgency, and said, "I'm certain your people are already preparing. Instead of coming here, they should head straight to where the
Upon disembarking from the vehicle alongside Lord Pluto, Alexander was met with a chorus of salutes from the newly formed merger of the Xander Mercenaries, their respect palpable in the air.With a gracious smile adorning his face, Alexander returned the salute to his loyal comrades. Meanwhile, a quartet of individuals, comprising Isabelle, Damien, Terry, and Townsend, made their way toward the charismatic duo of Alexander and Lord Pluto.Isabelle, ever conscious of the company present, initially exhibited a degree of restraint in her demeanor, but Alexander, driven by the warmth of their reunion, paid no heed to the onlookers and proceeded to embrace Isabelle, reaffirming their strong bond.He gently murmured into her ear, "You've put in a tremendous amount of effort," his words soft and reassuring. After sharing a heartfelt embrace that lasted for approximately two minutes, he released her from their warm hug. Isabelle found herself inundated with a whirlwind of emotions, yet she
"What one?" Alexander inquired, his brow furrowing in confusion as he struggled to grasp the gravity of Lord Pluto's words.In response, Lord Pluto's voice carried a somber tone as he recounted a past conversation, "During our initial encounter, Isabelle shared her audacious ambition with me – to conquer Rhode Island and emerge as the dominant power. I warned her that the existing peak forces in the region were formidable, and it seemed an insurmountable task, but she remained resolute."With a weary sigh, Lord Pluto continued to divulge, "I've taken precautionary measures since then; I've summoned my loyal followers and fortified my territory to shield it from external influences. It's not that I plan to betray them, but I'm not willing to jeopardize my life either so it's better i remain on the sidelines. Isabelle once mentioned that if her young master were present, dealing with these forces would be a breeze. Seeing you, you appear quite ordinary, which makes me wonder if she exag
Alexander found himself escorted by a group of heavily armed men who guided him through the encampment, ultimately leading him to their authoritative figure. The commanding presence he met was none other than Lord Pluto, the formidable leader of the Plutonian Force whom Isabelle was familiar with it.The Plutonian Force, the mercenary force that had recently isolated themselves and had strategically fortified their encampment, shutting themselves off from external affairs. Yet, the part of the coast where Alexander had made his unexpected arrival fell within their territory.Curiously, this region had been left less guarded, as the Plutonians didn't anticipate any visitors attempting to access their territory by sea, considering the treacherous waters teeming with wildlife posed a significant deterrent.So it was truly a surprise to see Alexander come from there.It was a genuine shock to witness Alexander emerge from that particular location."Kneel!" In a tense moment, one of the a
Alexander approached Freya with a graceful stride, lowering his head in a polite bow as he spoke, "I extend my heartfelt gratitude."He then turned his attention to Uncle Three and performed a similar courteous gesture, expressing his appreciation, "Thank you for your assistance."Uncle Three, a jovial twinkle in his eye, replied with a chuckle, "Oh, I didn't really contribute much. Had it not been for this powerful lady here, my second brother might have persisted."Alexander's lips curled into a warm smile, his appreciation unwavering, "Nevertheless, your decision to come here alone carries great significance."Uncle Three acknowledged the gravity of the situation with a nod, "I understand that you have important matters to discuss with her. I'll take my leave now, leaving you to your conversation."Alexander gave a subtle nod, his eyes locked on Uncle Three as his figure slowly faded from view. Before Alexander could utter a word, Freya's voice resonated with a mix of understandin
Uncle Three experienced a profound sense of shame due to Freya's words. Despite his unwavering faith in Alexander, he couldn't deny that Alexander's opponent possessed superior skills and abilities. Nevertheless, he made a deliberate choice to maintain his silence, mirroring Freya's stance. Uncle Three harbored an unspoken commitment that if ever Alexander found himself in mortal peril, he would instantly and unhesitatingly rush to his aid, ready to face any danger to protect his young master.Alexander and Silas remained entangled in their fierce battle. In this latest skirmish, the formidable force of their clash propelled Alexander, once more, to be forcefully hurled to the unforgiving ground. However, instead of immediately pursuing his fallen opponent, Silas chose to bide his time and observe, patiently allowing Alexander to rise on his own accord. Silas anticipated the moment of vulnerability that would arise when his adversary got back on his feet, ready to seize any opportu
Deep within the recesses of Uncle Two's mind, an intense desire burned within him, one he could scarcely admit even to himself. It was a wish, a sinister yearning, to violently dismantle Freya's world and force her to witness his merciless confrontation with Alexander. This desire was so powerful that it coursed through his every thought, yet he refrained from acting on it.Two primary reasons compelled Uncle Two to exercise caution. Firstly, he was unable to ascertain the true extent of Freya's abilities or her connections, leaving him in the dark regarding the potential consequences of his actions. Secondly, an overwhelming, ominous pressure seemed to emanate from Freya herself, a formidable force that served as a stark deterrent.Despite the fervent desire to bring Alexander to an end, Uncle Two cherished his own life, a natural instinct that whispered warnings of the grave dangers lurking should he tread recklessly on this treacherous path. In this delicate balance between desi
