Aurelius issued a sober warning, but it seemed that Arthur was not afraid at all. Arthur looked at Aurelius, suddenly bowed, facing his noble golden eyes. Aurelius raised an eyebrow slightly. Even though he was in the form of a cat at the moment, his demeanor was not inferior to Arthur's.Just then, Arthur suddenly smirked, paying no attention, and said with a faint smile, "I'm not worried about that."Aurelius didn't expect Arthur's answer to be like this, and he raised an eyebrow a bit, asking, "Why?"Of course, there were various reasons, and to analyze them, it might take the whole afternoon. Arthur thought so, then opened his mouth and said, "Because if I still exist, you will never win in an invasion of the human world."Aurelius furrowed his brow, "You mean you can defeat me?"Arthur chuckled, stood straight, and prepared to leave the room without answering Aurelius's question.Aurelius watched Arthur's departing figure and truly wanted to ask if he understood the hierarchy
One week has passed since Case left the city of Eldora. During this week, the entire city of Eldora has witnessed what can only be called a time of change.Another shocking news in the upper echelons of the city quickly replaced the news of Asta's death in prison. The SB Corporation, the sole monster dominating the city at the moment, immediately returned to the capital right after Asta's death.While others were still hesitant to take action against the Henry family, Arthur wasted no time. He manipulated, traded shares, and even took control of shareholders. Simultaneously, he took advantage of the opportunity to invest in large, abandoned projects with potential, pouring in funds and continuing the projects.Previously, no one could have imagined that the SB Corporation would have such abundant capital. Even the foolish could tell that this had something to do with Arthur. Speculations about Arthur's identity grew day by day, but none were confirmed. The only truth at this mo
Arthur also didn't pay much attention to Lucia, and the reason she was still in his mansion until now was because the dark energy within her had not been completely dispelled. He had to wait for her to wake up before he could eliminate the residual dark energy in her, or it could lead to unforeseen consequences.The wheelchair rolled on the streets, and Michael's driving skills were excellent. In no time, they had returned to the mansion. At this moment, Lucia was sitting in her private room with Lily by her side. Lily brought a warm cup of water into the room and saw Lucia gazing out the window, her eyes filled with a hint of sadness.Clearly, not too long ago, Emma was still running and playing here, the entire courtyard filled with laughter.No one could have expected that things would turn out this way today. Lily placed the warm water on the table and walked over to Lucia, speaking gently: "Miss Lucia, please don't be too sad. Consider the past as fleeting as foam on the sea
Two days of talking much or talking little it made no difference. For most ordinary people, it might have been just a blink of an eye. But for Lucia, these two days were indeed a torment.As soon as the dark energy was burned out completely and released from the array, she was drenched in sweat and blood, her face showing a cold, unprecedented demeanor as if she had gained insights into many things but also became more stubborn.However, one undeniable fact was that the Lucia of the past seemed to have died. At this moment, Lucia had truly undergone a complete transformation, and even a trace of softness in her heart had turned cold.Arthur looked at the party plan in his hand, leaning back slightly with an emotionless expression. He said, "Quite good. Let Scarlet proceed with everything as planned."Their party would be held tonight, and all the preparations had started since yesterday evening. This plan only needed a few adjustments for Arthur to review.Michael took the plan,
The person Scarlet looked at was none other than Lucia. Scarlet didn't know what had happened during this time, but it seemed like Lucia had changed a lot. Before, she was cold but still approachable, and now her coldness seemed capable of killing. She was no longer in a simple dress but in a beautiful suit, with neatly trimmed short hair. She looked stunning in a non-gendered way. Many eyes were on her, but she carried herself confidently as if oblivious to the curious and evaluating gazes.Scarlet knew that Lucia now held the entire power of the Gullwing family, along with the SunRise corporation gifted by Arthur.Lucia's influence in the city now rivaled that of Mr. Adel. Despite Arthur's assistance, Scarlet could sense that Lucia's past brilliance seemed to have returned.Scarlet chuckled, and at that moment, Mr. Adel's voice suddenly echoed: "Honestly, looking at her now is like a predator spotting its prey."Scarlet raised an eyebrow at that but then mockingly replied, "Do
People say that, two years ago, the heir who had always been wandering outside the Hastings' residence was found and returned. However, the Hastings family kept this information carefully guarded, and the returning heir did not want to reveal themselves too much to the public. Therefore, ordinary upper-class people like them had never seen the appearance of this heir. They only knew that his power was extremely strong, and in just two years, he had firmly secured the position of the heir. Competitors vying for his position had no chance, as he was truly too powerful! Although the truth was unknown, these rumors were enough to pique the curiosity of many about this heir.Mr. Adel subtly glanced at Arthur. Arthur was not a blood relative of the Smith family, and moreover, he had connections to the Hastings family, making his influence considerable. Based on his intelligence and tactics, Mr. Adel secretly speculated that Arthur might be the hidden heir of the Hastings family! Thi
The plane took off swiftly, and Michael watched as the ground gradually receded below, his eyes gleaming with the reflection of light. It was his first time flying, and the experience wasn't too bad, though he felt a bit queasy.Quietly glancing around, Lance appeared unfazed as usual, while Arthur gazed out the window, his thoughts unclear. At this moment, Arthur was only observing Lily and a few guards below. Lily had to stay in the city of Eldora to monitor the situation of the Hastings family's lower branch while also ensuring the timely protection of Lucia and Scarlet. At least they couldn't let them be threatened as Scarlet was before.Arthur leaned back in his seat, his gaze wandering. The sky was filled with dark clouds, suggesting that the weather tonight might not be favorable. Just then, the sounds of some meows echoed.The three Thlus had ventured outside, now behaving like country bumpkins, inspecting the plane curiously. Crimson led the way, opening its mouth, "Un
Arthur's dreams have not stopped. It almost forces him to reminisce about everything once again. Despite his considerable authority, there are those with intentions against him, none other than his aunt's eldest son. Their generations are almost the same age, with his aunt's eldest son being a year younger. Before Arthur's return, he had already shown a business acumen surpassing others, and his magical aptitude was not inferior either. However, in the end, he still fell short compared to Arthur.This world has three continents; theirs is the only continent where humans have survived to this day. It is a realm of knowledge they have known since childhood. The other two continents are Silverwood and Moonlit Isles. Living conditions on these continents are strange and harsh, unsuitable for humans. However, they also harbor many unimaginably rare items, sustaining numerous mercenary groups and hired soldiers. After adventures, they could bring back many rare treasures, but along
