Chapter: CHAPTER SIXOutside the Old Building, Lucas paused outside the aging structure, his sharp gaze sweeping over its crumbling facade. The wood of the door was splintered, and the windows, clouded with grime, cast a faint, eerie reflection in the late afternoon light.Behind him, Director Steve shifted nervously, his hands wringing together. "This building," he began, his voice a touch too quick, "was constructed fifty years ago, back when the orphanage was first established. It’s long past its prime. The children who lived here were moved to the newer facility years ago. Hardly anyone comes here anymore."Lucas didn’t respond, his attention fixed on the moss creeping over the narrow stone path leading to the door. Its green fingers blanketed the ground as though nature itself had claimed the area—yet he noticed the abrupt break in the pattern.The section nearest to the main road was suspiciously bare, its stone surface worn smooth by the unmistakable rhythm of regular footsteps."Hardly anyone," Lu

Chapter: Chapter Five Lucas paused in pain, missing the time to counterattack; by the time he could get himself together, she had already run into the forest. Watching her escape, he didn't look surprised but narrowed his eyes and looked at her back view. Wondering who she could be, he thought at first that she was an accomplice of the assassin, but obviously, she did not aim at him. Otherwise, she wouldn't have escaped so quickly. A girl in the orphanage who was so good at martial arts couldn't be an ordinary person. She was just a teenager _What is her real identity? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The next day, the radio in the orphanage rang out, and the voice of Director Steve ordered all the children in the orphanage to gather in the assembly hall.

We thought you would select from the list we provided to you, but you sa

Chapter: Chapter Four §§§§§§§§§§§§§§§The mist obscured her view, but she could sense coldness in the dark eyes.She hadn’t expected that she would fall off the tree so easily and slide into the spring, nor did she expect that someone would be in the spring…The man in the spring concealed his surprise, looking at the boy sticking his head out of the water and staring at him in the mist. “What? You want to join me?” Lucas asked, his voice low and even.Casey hesitated, unsure how to respond to why she fell from the tree into the spring; her gaze darted between Lucas's imposing figure and the darkness beyond the spring, her mind racing. Water droplets clung to her lashes as she weighed her options, her voice caught in her throat. She hadn't seen him in an orphanage before; he must be a member of the M base, but she was unsure of his position in the base.She slowly slid down to hide half of her face underwater calmly so only her calm, cold eyes could be seen.Seeing him staying motionless, Lucas stays in t

Chapter: Chapter ThreeStanding up to get back to his room, the boys scurried away fearfully, thinking he was coming for them again.“ Shit, Casey has only been in the orphanage for just a few months; he has never been close to anyone. This is the first time they saw him fight despite his cold temper. No one expected him to be so strong.°~°~°~°~°~°~°At night,This was one of the largest orphanages in Los Angeles, with a large number of orphans. The people from the base arrived at the orphanage in the afternoon, but due to the huge amount of orphans on the list, they had to stay there for the night and continue the screening tomorrow.Casey retired to her room, seeking refuge in sleep. After all, she had nothing else to do than sleep, eat, and stroll around, but due to movements around the orphanage, she couldn't go to sleep peacefully.She opened her eyes, sat up on her bed, looking out her window, thinking maybe she should just go for a dip at the natural hot spring she found a few weeks ago at the back

Chapter: Chapter Two"Huh,” Lucas nodded indifferently and entered the orphanage. Lucas stepped out of the jeep, his presence commanding attention. His sharp jawline and piercing gaze seemed chiseled from granite, exuding an aura of authority that silenced the surrounding chatter.” Seeing the legendary Lucas Blackwood finally show up, the director of the orphanage came up to greet him. “ Mr Blackwood, this is your first time being involved in the selection. Nice to meet you” Lucas walked straight in and coldly replied,” Nice to meet you too, Director Steve; every four years, M base chooses new members from orphanages around the country based on the agreement with the government.
