"You may be uncertain about giving her a future, but she’s certain about giving you one. I have only one son and one granddaughter. Alice is the undeniable heir to the Morgan family."

"The properties in Nova City? They’re just a fraction of the Morgan family’s assets. Our true foundation lies in Metropolis City, where Alice’s father manages all of our enterprises. As long as you marry Alice, all of it will be yours."

"All you need to do is say yes—and you’ll instantly possess wealth beyond im

    “Professor Wilson is right.”“I had assumed that someone like you might place importance on pedigree.”“With your abilities, you stand apart from most people.”Clarence Bennett spoke with a hint of reflection.“I believe the purpose of education is not to elevate oneself above others, nor to draw distinctions between oneself and the masses.”“It is to enrich one’s inner world—and to cultivate a deeper empathy for the struggles of ordinary people.”Joseph replied.“I didn’t expect your perspective to be so elevated, Professor Wilson. Unfortunately, those in power within the Central Council don’t see things that way.”“Their thoughts revolve solely around their own interests.”Clarence Bennett said, his tone edged with indignation.“Even if you’re powerless to change it, you can retain your sense of outrage—and act when the time is right.”Joseph said to him.“Act when the time is right… but when will that time come?”Clarence Bennett looked troubled.“I don’t know either. For now, we w

    “It’s nothing particularly urgent.”“It’s just that things have eased up a bit lately, and I was wondering if you might have some time.”“If you’re free, would you mind joining me for a meal, Professor Wilson?”“You’ve helped us tremendously—we ought to express our gratitude properly.”“Of course, the meal is only part of it. More importantly, it would be a chance for us to understand each other better. After all, there may be opportunities for cooperation in the future.”Clarence Bennett spoke with careful tact.“Commander Bennett, if your superiors were to learn that we’re cooperating, I wonder what they’d think.”“In other words—have you obtained their approval?”Joseph cut straight to the point.“Professor Wilson, whether I have their approval isn’t really the issue.”“To be frank with you—after everything that’s happened in Nova City, those people above us have shown no response whatsoever.”“They’ve been utterly indifferent to the situation here—almost as if they’re tacitly allo

    “Very impressive. It’s clear everyone here is putting in tremendous effort.”Joseph spoke with evident approval.“At our base, only the truly exceptional earn the right to stand among us.”“Loyalty is the foundation—then comes capability and talent. All three are indispensable.”“Every one of them is a rare find.”Brian Adams introduced them with unmistakable confidence.“It shows.”Joseph nodded.Just then, a car pulled up at the entrance of the base. Neil Foster stepped out and walked briskly toward Joseph and Brian Adams.“Young Master—good news!”Only when he drew near did Neil speak, his voice tinged with excitement.“Good news? What kind of good news?” Joseph asked.“Several well-known international master thieves have already entered Elysia. It’s safe to assume they’ve come for what we possess.”Neil Foster said, visibly pleased.“Thieves?”“So when assassination failed, they’ve turned to stealing instead?”“A clever adjustment. After all, if a theft fails, only one person dies

    “Everything on the Nova City Garrison’s side appears calm—nothing out of the ordinary.”“During this period, we’ve been dealing with the assassins entering Nova City with tacit coordination. As of now, that work is essentially wrapping up.”“As for Clarence Bennett, he did try to reach out. They remain quite curious about our identities—especially yours, Young Master.”Neil Foster reported to Joseph.“It’s only natural for them to be curious. Have they used any resources to investigate us?” Joseph asked.“They certainly have, but it seems they’ve come up empty.”“I’ve operated in Nova City for many years—when it comes to secrecy, I don’t boast without reason.”“As long as I don’t wish to be known, no one will uncover who I am.”Neil Foster spoke with complete confidence.“I believe that. You once oversaw intelligence operations in the southern territories—your capabilities have never been in doubt.”Joseph responded with evident approval.To become the master’s right-hand man required

    “They probably haven’t noticed yet.”“But once they do, it won’t take long for them to realize that you and Autumnless are one and the same.”“And once that happens, they’ll inevitably become wary of you.”Neil Foster considered for a moment before speaking.“Old Foster is right. If they discover that you control that research—and that you are Autumnless—they’ll sense something unusual.”“And once they grow suspicious, they won’t act rashly.”Brian Adams added.“Which is why we need to move quickly.”Joseph nodded slightly as he spoke, then took out a document and handed it to Neil Foster.“What’s this?”Neil Foster accepted it, puzzled.“This is the second proposal for creating superhumans.”Joseph replied.“Creating superhumans?”“But didn’t you say it’s impossible?”“Does this proposal actually work?”Both Neil Foster and Brian Adams were visibly surprised.“Strictly speaking, it doesn’t.”Joseph smiled faintly.“Then…?”The two exchanged confused glances.“It’s a trap.”“What this

    “You’ll understand when I arrive.”Joseph said no more.“Alright. I’ll be at headquarters all day tomorrow—just let me know when you get here.”Since Joseph chose not to elaborate, Neil Foster didn’t press further.“Okay.”Joseph responded. After exchanging farewells, they ended the call.With those matters settled, Joseph finally lay down on his bed.Over the past ten days, he had spent most of his time in the laboratory, and the mental strain had left him somewhat fatigued.Before long, he drifted into a deep, dreamless sleep.Following Joseph’s instructions, the final portion of the original Superhuman Project was released in full.As expected, its publication stirred considerable commotion.However, such advanced material was far beyond the grasp of the general public—they could only watch the spectacle without truly understanding it.Those who did understand, however, remained silent, seeking either to profit from it or to help others do the same.Meanwhile, at the headquarters o
