In one of the rooms at Drummond Castle.Daniel was leaving the bathroom after refreshing himself by soaking in the tub for over half an hour.It had been five days since his battle with Alfonso.Although he had been nearly defeated in his battle with the Davenmert man, Daniel had been very fortunate.First, the fight had forced him to raise his body level.Second, Alfonso was the top contender on the list. Being the strongest of all the contestants, he was considered the likely winner of the competition.However, Daniel shattered that belief.He managed to defeat Alfonso, and did so quite convincingly.Therefore, the organizing committee granted him a privilege in this competition.Daniel didn't have to play the next two matches.He just had to wait for the next contestant to advance to the final round, which would take place in three days.As he dried his hair with a towel, the only garment clinging to Daniel's body was a towel he used to cover his lower body.His upper body, with it
At that moment, even Joe, the right-hand man, couldn't resist stealing a glance at his beautiful boss's face."Oh, how beautiful you are, Laura! If I could win your heart, I would give you everything that you ask for and I would do everything that you want," the man thought as he kept looking into Laura's beautiful eyes."Joe, is the information you got true?" Laura asked without looking in her subordinate's direction.The girl continued to read the pages of information about Daniel that she held in her hands.Moments passed, however, and Laura didn't hear an answer.Only silence filled the space.She called the man again."Joe, is this information true?"She waited patiently for a few moments. But once again, no answer reached the girl's ears.Laura raised her face and looked at her subordinate."Joe, did you hear what I said?"This time Laura raised her voice, startling the man named Joe.The man, mesmerized by the beauty of his boss, immediately lowered his eyes."Yes! Yes! I heard
Daniel had just finished the dessert plate of his dinner.His stomach felt unbelievably full.Tomorrow was a crucial day for him, as it would determine his final step in claiming the title of Esquire.Still, he was reluctant to leave the place right away.He decided to chat for a while with his two friends, Jeffrey and Montgomery.Yes, Montgomery!Montgomery's name had also started to be mentioned in Drummond Palace, just like Daniel's.The tall and wild young man used to live alone in a luxurious house.After his aristocratic privileges were revoked, Montgomery was also cast out by his family.The young man had brought shame to the entire family with his irrational actions.They felt that allowing the young man to live with them at Brooks Manor would only bring more misfortune.So why not just throw him out of the mansion?That was the most reasonable thing to do. There was nothing more appropriate than that!***One week ago.After his fight with Alfonso, Daniel convinced Jeffrey th
Several hours had passed after midnight when Daniel climbed the stairs to return to his room.Although he hadn't slept that late, he didn't feel any fatigue or excessive sleepiness in his body.After Daniel reached the rank of Lion, he began to understand that his body did not tire and did not require the same amount of sleep as Warriors below his rank.It was an advantage that only those who had reached the rank of Lion had!As he passed Montgomery's room, he could hear the large young man snoring outside his door.Snore! Snore!"He seems really tired!" Daniel thought to himself.Entering his own room, he noticed that the notification light on his phone was flashing repeatedly.It indicated that there was a message or email that he hadn't read.At that moment, Daniel was somewhat reluctant to open his phone because he didn't want the electronic device to distract his mind from resting for the rest of the night.As was Daniel's habit, even though he was a super busy student with acade
Daniel still wasn't happy that he had to search such a large area to find the location of a building.As he drove his car, Daniel turned his head from side to side to see if there was a house like the one mentioned in the last message.It took about thirty more minutes before he saw an old gate with no sign or name.Still, it looked clean and well maintained.The gate led to a small dirt road that reminded him of a typical aristocratic estate.At this point, Daniel considered two options.If he continued on, he would reach the border post, where there were no buildings except for the one where the Warriors guarding the border did their duty.He wasn't sure if the old house mentioned in the message was beyond that.That left only one choice.Without much thought, Daniel stepped on the gas and turned the wheel to steer the luxury car onto the dirt road next to it.After passing through the gate, the dirt road Daniel was driving on seemed very dark.There were tall lamp posts on either s
Daniel paid no attention to the Warrior.He effortlessly pulled his leg and walked towards the girl's faint voice.Judging by the distance of the sound, he estimated that it was coming from the upper floor.He climbed the stairs to the second floor, but he was sure it wasn't coming from any of the rooms on that level.He continued his steps to the third story.Once there, he sharpened his hearing to catch the sound.For several moments, however, his ears caught no sound at all."Miss Insignia!""Miss Insignia!"Daniel shouted her name as he checked every room on this floor.By this time, the wall clock must have read five in the morning, as sunlight from outside began to filter through the windows.When he reached a room at the very end, Daniel heard the sound of a girl calling his name."Daniel, is that you?"The voice was barely audible.Daniel couldn't hold back anymore. He immediately opened the door and found a girl wearing a robe just like the one he had seen on his cell phone.
Laura admired Daniel from the bottom of her heart.Especially when she felt firsthand that the young man's inner strength was a level above her own.As someone who had reached the rank of Lion, Laura had met many powerful Warriors.Some of them had even reached the same rank as her.However, achieving Lion rank was not easy.It took decades of training to reach it.Therefore, it was not surprising that the average age of those who reached this rank was over thirty.But Daniel was different.Anyone could see that he was still in his early twenties."This is the first time I've seen a young man with such inner strength," the girl thought again.In fact, the girl had used most of her inner strength when she attacked Daniel earlier.But it turned out that it was not enough to hit him.It wasn't even enough to intimidate the young man.On the contrary, it was Laura who felt intimidated by Daniel's inner strength.So she thought, "If he were to attack me seriously, I might not be able to wi
Daniel couldn't understand why he felt this way.Wasn't this the first time he had met the girl?Maybe it was because it was Daniel's first experience to be so physically close to a girl.He had never experienced such closeness before.Laura really had a perfect face and body. Moreover, at such a close distance, Daniel's nose could catch the scent of the perfume the girl wore. It was sweet and soft.But the comfort he felt now was more than just such physical stimulation.For a moment, this feeling made him slightly mesmerized.But at that very moment, the sun began to rise.Facing east, Daniel could feel the warmth of the light emanating from the bright, round object hitting his face.It freed him a little from the sensations he was experiencing.If it hadn't been for the sunlight hitting his face, he might have given in to his feelings.He realized that he had to move his body away from the girl immediately.But Daniel didn't do it by pushing Laura's body.Instead, he did it by pull
