The cool night air carried a crisp stillness as Max sprinted through the dimly lit streets of BB City. His breath came out in steady puffs, controlled despite the speed at which he moved. The rhythmic pounding of his feet against the pavement was the only sound accompanying him, aside from the occasional flickering streetlight overhead.By the time he reached his neighborhood, the hands of the clock had nearly ticked past ten. Two hours remained before the day's end—just enough time to complete his final daily task. Relief flooded his chest, easing the tension in his shoulders as he exhaled.His plan was simple: head toward the sparse forest area near the city outskirts.With a flicker of energy, he activated Dash once more, his body surging forward like a shadow breaking through the night. The cityscape blurred past him, and in mere moments, he crossed the last row of apartments and left behind the familiar concr

He frowned, his brow creasing in confusion as he stared at the moisture glistening on his fingertips."Am I... crying?" he murmured, his voice barely above a whisper.A soft chuckle escaped his lips, a strange mix of amusement and disbelief. He hadn't shed tears in years—not since the day his world had shattered around him. Yet here he was, alone in his dimly lit apartment, with a silent tear tracing a path down his cheek.He knew why. Deep down, he understood the reason, even if he didn’t want to acknowledge it. But there was no point in dwelling on it.With a quick shake of his head, Gustav wiped his face and pushed the thoughts away. He had already made a decision regarding Angy.---The following morning, Gustav was up before dawn. His internal clock had long since adjusted to early risings

Chapter 55: Surprised Appearance The sharp, feminine voice cut through the air like a blade, carrying such authority that the man gripping Max’s shoulder stiffened involuntarily. A tremor ran down his spine, his fingers momentarily loosening their hold before he forcefully steadied himself.That voice… it couldn’t be—With a slow, almost reluctant motion, Master Jk turned, his breath catching in his throat as he laid eyes on the person who had spoken. His pulse pounded wildly. The composed expression he had worn mere moments ago shattered in an instant.A woman stood before him, her presence undeniable. Long strands of sleek, silver-grey hair cascaded down her back, catching the light as she moved with an effortless grace. She was clad in a short, form-fitting green dress, accentuated by a brown coat draped elegantly over her shoulders. Despite her slender frame, an aura of sheer dominance radiated from her every step.“Young M

Yura Vance, dressed in casual home attire, tilted her head slightly in curiosity at his unexpected arrival."I'm here to see your father. Is he in?" Max asked, his tone neutral yet firm.Yura blinked, momentarily caught off guard, before nodding. "Um, my father? Yes, he's inside."She stepped aside, allowing him entrance. Just as he took a step forward, a deep, commanding voice echoed from within the apartment."Come in, Max."Recognizing Theo Vance’s voice, Max proceeded inside, his boots making barely a sound against the polished wooden floor. The apartment had a warm yet modest aesthetic, its interior illuminated by soft evening light filtering through the window blinds.Theo Vance sat on a navy-blue sofa to Max’s right, his broad fr
The Rise of Max bladeheart Chapter 57: School Announcement
Chapter 57: School AnnouncementSince the downfall of Old Man Daki, the neighborhood had been left vulnerable. None of the Xeon Users in the area had achieved Zeta Rank—except for one individual. But even then, they weren’t a combat-oriented Xeon User, leaving the district largely defenseless against the sporadic incursions of lower-tier Mixedbreeds.Attacks had always been a part of life here, occurring about once a month in the past. However, before Old Man Daki's passing, the frequency had begun to increase, shifting from a monthly nuisance to a near-weekly crisis. It was thanks to his efforts that complete chaos had been kept at bay, but with his death, the situation spiraled out of control.There were fifty-seven buildings in the area that he had once protected. Without him, it was only a matter of time before disaster struck. One fateful night, a Mixedbreed infiltrated one of the apartment complexes, slaughtering an entire family before hel

The ground trembled beneath its writhing form as it attempted to shake him off. With a sudden lurch, the serpent whipped its enormous tail upward, seeking to throw Max off balance. But instead of being sent sprawling, he used the momentum to propel himself forward, launching through the air with the grace of a seasoned fighter. His body arced high above, and as he descended, his glowing fist was poised for impact. Bang! His strike landed squarely atop the creature’s head, sending a tremor rippling through its massive form. The impact shook the beast slightly, but unlike before, Max wasn’t thrown back as violently. The radiant white light surrounding his hand had absorbed most of the recoil. Landing with a grunt, Max steadied himself, his breath measure
