"Oh?" Felix chuckled. After dealing with Inferno Clan, yet another person was targeting him through an assassin organization—probably someone without much sense. The irony was that Flair had been created by Averill, making this whole setup a perfect case of a lamb to the slaughter."Who made the order?" he asked."A man named Pierce Langden. He's from Canraville."Felix raised his hand. "I know who he is. I'll handle this myself."Seven nodded, waiting patiently for Felix's main instructions."It's about the Thirteen Aces, which are Dragonia's S-rank wanted criminals. Find me the twelfth one, Sonny Balcom, code-named 'Circle of Hearts.' Track him down for me."With its intelligence network, Flair's assassin organization was well-equipped to find targets better than most other organizations."Yes, sir."The thought of falling for their trap still bothered Felix immensely. He continued, "You're connected with Shadownet overseas, aren't you?"Seven nodded. "Yes, Mr. Zeller. Do
Meanwhile, at the Hawkins residence in Canraville, Andrei was hosting an important guest. It was the president of the Lionsfield Chamber of Commerce, Fabian Fraser. Only those who understood the Lionsfield Chamber of Commerce's influence could truly appreciate Fabian's significance."Mr. Hawkins, this study of yours is exquisite," Fabian remarked, admiring the surroundings with a glint of appreciation in his eyes. "Introduce me to the designer later. I'd like to have something similar in my own home."Andrei smiled. "Consider it done, Mr. Fraser. It's a minor favor."Fabian nodded, transitioning to the main topic. "I'm passing through Canraville, and given the high value of the items in the upcoming shipment, I wanted to confirm the arrangement of martial artists and security teams with you personally."Andrei chuckled. "There's nothing for you to worry about. Haven't we partnered enough times already? If you can't trust me, surely you can trust my family's strength."Fabian grinn
Felix raised his hand, signaling the Earthen Hall members to stand down as he calmly looked at Theodore, who was now only inches away."No. You're the one who crossed the line," Felix replied. "I respect your loyalty, but that doesn't change anything."Terrified, Andrei quickly intervened, "Theodore, stand down! Don't mess around!"It was no joke. Even the members of the Martial Alliance Council from his family acknowledged that the resurgence of Dragon Alliance was unstoppable. Andrei did not dare to make them his enemies. If anything happened to Felix, his family would undoubtedly abandon him, and someone else would soon take his place as the wealthiest man in Canraville."If anything happens to Mr. Hawkins, I'll kill you," Theodore threatened, his eyes filled with icy determination.Felix merely scoffed at Theodore's threat. In the past, he could have ended his life with a single slap."You're Theodore Walker, right? For that statement alone, your fate is sealed," Felix said
Opportunities didn't just fall from the sky. Felix's care for a woman Andrei had never met clearly had deeper reasons. Once Andrei learned that Felix treated Michelle like his own sister, he immediately instructed one of his sons to pursue her. His son had a knack for wooing women. His skills were so refined that he could charm the daughters of many wealthy families even without relying on his background as the son of the wealthiest man in town. Hence, Michelle, an ordinary girl, was no challenge for him.Returning to the study, Andrei noticed Fabian frowning, and he could guess what was on his mind."Mr. Fraser, are you curious about that young man's identity?"Fabian nodded. "Yes. I saw the whole thing. How could I ignore someone who made you so afraid? We old-timers fear nothing more than these low-profile figures. Messing with them could spell sudden doom."Andrei sighed bitterly. Fabian had encountered Felix by chance. He, on the other hand, had jumped in willingly. Fortunat
"Averill, I can assure you, your cycle is perfectly normal."In the courtyard of Tranquil Clinic in Eden Village, Felix Zeller slowly lifted his right hand with a look of helplessness.Before him stood six beautiful women, each with a unique charm. They were smiling as they patiently waited in line."But Felix, I don't feel well. Why don't you come to my room and do a thorough checkup?" Averill Davis said suggestively.Felix smiled wryly.Ever since his mentor, Gerald Hoffman, brought him to this village three years ago, he had faced constant teasing from these women, his fellow apprentices.Although he had gotten used to it, it was still tough to handle, especially when they were so alluring."Averill, don't push your luck.""Exactly! It's my turn now. Step aside. Don't even dream about having Felix all by yourself."As Leslie Brown sat in front of him, Felix sighed and pleaded, "Please, can't you all be more like Eloise, Dahlia, and Karina? Focus on your training and stop wa
By the time Felix stepped out of his room, everyone was already gone. With his departure, his fellow apprentices likely wouldn't stay in Eden Village either.Thinking about it made Felix fume. Three years ago, Gerald had brought him here and then disappeared without a trace. It was utterly irresponsible of him.The sounds of knocking pulled Felix from his thoughts.He looked up to see several unfamiliar faces standing at the courtyard gate. Even though the gate was open, they hadn't entered, showing some degree of politeness.Felix walked over and noticed a few Mercedes G-Wagons parked outside the clinic. Evidently, these were wealthy individuals."Excuse me. Is the miracle doctor here?" asked a middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses, looking very refined. His name was Vincent Kinsley."The miracle doctor left this place almost three years ago."Vincent's face fell. The miracle doctor was a legend in Dragonia's medical world. He was their last hope, and now, he was gone.Besi
While Xena loved Curtis dearly and had tried every means to cure him, a troubling thought crept into her mind: she hoped he wouldn't wake up at this moment.That was because Felix was insufferable. Not only was he useless, but he also dared to act superior in front of a goddess of war like her. He clearly had no idea who he was dealing with.Felix didn't respond to her condescending remarks. Instead, he rushed over to check Curtis' pulse, his expression growing serious. "It's the Phantom Poison. No wonder."Xena frowned. "Are you saying Grandpa's been poisoned?""That's right. It's the most potent Phantom Poison there is. If it had been detected earlier, I could have neutralized it immediately. But it's been over a year, and it has become more complicated."We need some rare herbs to treat it. Thankfully, the master healers you contacted did a decent job. Though they couldn't remove the poison, they managed to keep him alive."Xena's expression twisted with a mix of emotions. "Lo
"Please, Dr. Fielding! Save my father. I'll give anything!" Vincent pleaded desperately.Bernard's life was crucial for the family, and as his son, Vincent was willing to do whatever it took.Xander sighed. "Your father will not make it through the night. But since I'm here, you have another option. I can extend his life by a month. Decide quickly."Before Vincent could respond, Bernard croaked out with great struggle, "D-Do it."Vincent quickly agreed. Prolonging Bernard's life for a month was better than losing him now.Meanwhile, Wendy had slipped out of the room, looking visibly torn as she held her phone. She remembered the phone number Felix had given them earlier that day due to her sharp memory."Grandpa, I'll do anything for you," she murmured, her face set with determination.…At a certain residential area in Avesburgh, Felix stood in front of a three-story villa, feeling a mix of emotions. It had been three years since he last saw Warren Quinton.Warren had been hi
