"There's no time better than the present. Let's do it tonight!" Fenley was ready for battle. As he spoke, he suddenly took a deep breath. A huge amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth rushed in from all directions and flowed into him continuously.Soon afterward, Fenley suddenly appeared bigger, more terrifying, and more shocking. His black eyes suddenly became white, all his hair stood on its end, and his clothes flapped loudly in the wind. Thunder rumbled, and lightning flashed around him without stopping.In the next moment, Fenley's feet suddenly lifted off the ground as he levitated. He looked like a celestial being and a devil at the same time. He appeared very prideful and impressive. Even though the battle hadn't started, his presence was domineering, and it left everyone breathless. At this moment, all those present had the sudden urge to get on their knees to worship him. They felt the reverence for him deep within their beings. It was as if Fenley was no

"Oh wow! Isn't he Adam Spanner, the God of Military? What is he doing here?""Fuck! It really is the God of Military! This is going to be good!""Oh my! The God of Military is so handsome! He looks so much better in person!"The sudden appearance of Adam Spanner caused a stir in the crowd. Some young women even appeared lovesick as their eyes shone with admiration.Dragonmarsh had four Gods of War but had only one God of Military. The God of Military was someone who was brave and visionary. He was also well-versed in literary works and martial arts.In addition to being above everyone in courage and martial arts, Adam Spanner was a highly intelligent person. The most important point was that he had a face that could captivate the attention of most women. In terms of popularity, Adam Spanner was definitely at the top in Dragonmarsh. There would always be a huge uproar wherever he went."Fenley Hudson, it's about time to stop. Don't you have anything else to do? Why are you her

It was just that this opportunity was hard to come by, and Fenley really didn't want to miss it. "Aren't you afraid people will laugh at you for bullying the weak?" Fenley tried to upset him on purpose."You may abide by the rules of the martial world, but I live by the rules at the frontline. You're used to individual fights, and I respect that. "However, we're used to fighting in groups. Don't you think you should show some respect to us as well?" Adam asked matter-of-factly. "You … You're so unreasonable!" Fenley was angry. Adam clearly lacked sportsmanship, yet he spoke in such a confident manner. He had never seen someone so shameless."Alright, alright. Stop yapping. If you want to fight, let's fight. If not, just leave. Don't waste my time." Adam was getting a little impatient.His little speech successfully provoked Fenley to the point where he almost lost his composure. For someone who was inarticulate, he knew very well that it wouldn't do him any good if he contin

"Huh?" Elena shivered and almost peed her pants when she saw Dustin's eerie smile.When she regained her composure, she quickly begged for forgiveness, "Dus … Dustin, please, can we talk about this? It was all a huge misunderstanding. Are you upset? We can certainly talk it over.""Give me a reason not to kill both of you?" Dustin inched closer with a killer gaze."Reason? The reason is … keeping us alive is beneficial to you too!" Elena racked her brain and found an answer. She continued, "Didn't you want half of our inheritance? We'll agree to all your requests. As long as you don't kill me, we'll agree to anything.""Too late." Dustin shook his head. "If you had come to this realization earlier, I might have considered letting you live. However, I realized that both of you are very stubborn, and you are better off dead!""Dustin, it's our fault. I know it's all our fault now!" Elena was flabbergasted, tugging at Eleanor's sleeve for support. "Eleanor, quick, say something! If

"You really wouldn't budge even in the face of death," Dustin said sarcastically, "Do you think I'm afraid of Anders Mosey? If I was, why would I kill Scott Mosey?"Eleanor was dumbfounded and stood rooted to the spot upon hearing that. She had almost forgotten about it. Dustin had the guts to kill even Scott Mosey. Why would he hesitate to kill them? This guy was just really crazy."That's enough. I don't want to waste my time on any of you. You'll eventually spill when you go to prison," Dustin said calmly."Take them away." Adam gestured toward his female assistants. When they received his order, they dragged Eleanor and Elena away and were ready to leave in the car."No! I don't want to go to prison! Dustin, please let me go! I know that I'm wrong now! I will serve you, is that alright? I will always obey you and do whatever you ask me to. Please!" Elena was really afraid. She was howling and begging with tears streaming down her face. Now, the Forrest family was in deep wa

Dustin frowned as he looked at the two dead bodies on the ground. Skilled martial artists had keen senses, alerting them of any incoming attack. These heightened senses allowed their bodies to naturally dodge or block the attack.Nevertheless, those two shots were very well-concealed. Besides, he wasn't able to sense the shooter as the shots fired meant him no harm. He was indifferent toward the deaths of Eleanor Welch and Elena Forrest. However, it was an obvious challenge as the shooter decided to kill them right in front of him.Dustin raised his head and looked in the direction where the shots were fired. It was at a higher elevation where the shooter could have a clear view of his target. However, the person had already left by now."Hurry! Get someone to block the crime scene right now! We must capture the shooter!" Adam quickly gave a decisive order after regaining his composure."There's no need for that. The shooter had already escaped." Dustin raised his hand to stop

"Of course!" Dustin looked determined. "I already have some clues to help me uncover the truth about the incident. I can't leave no matter what.""Right! Since you've already made up your mind, I'll give you my unconditional support. Just let me know if you need any help!" Adam said as he patted his chest."Of course. I'll definitely need your help." Dustin smiled lightly and added, "I'll rely heavily on you for any tedious and difficult task.""What are you talking about? Am I only worthy of tedious and difficult tasks?" Adam sounded disappointed."You're the most capable man I know. You're the God of Military! Is there anything you can't do?" Dustin showered Adam with some flattery."That's true." Adam was beginning to sound a little pompous as he added, "You might be a prince, but I'm still better than you in some other things.""You're absolutely right." Dustin nodded quickly and said casually, "We'll continue with this topic another time. For now, can you please deal with th

"It's you, Ms. Linsor. I've heard a lot about you." After a momentary surprise, Dustin quickly recollected himself. He continued, "Ms. Linsor, as it's quite late already, may I know the purpose of your visit and who sent you?"He didn't know Grace personally, but he had seen her side profile in a painting, Enchanting Elegance. He was curious to find out the reason for her sudden visit."You'll understand after you read the letter, Mr. Rhys." Grace didn't explain. Instead, she took out a letter from her sleeve and gave it to Dustin with both hands."Thanks." Dustin nodded slightly and took the letter. As he opened the letter to read it, the content stunned him and made his heart beat faster. The letter wasn't signed, and there was no greeting. Only a single sentence was written in the letter. "Donovan Linsor, the Prince of Carsonne, currently living in the Scenic Monastery in Quandary Mountain, goes by Abbot Lumen."Dustin immediately knew who sent the letter when he saw the

"Get lost! I'm not in the mood for anything right now. If you want to eat, go on your own." Warrick snapped, looking annoyed."I'm not going either," Percival refused flatly. "I'm on a health regimen these days—only tea, no alcohol.""Fine. If you're going to wait, then keep waiting. I won't be sticking around." Huxley forced a smile and acted like he was about to leave.But as he turned, he almost bumped into Boston, who was approaching from the other direction."Sorry, Sir Thatcher! I hope I didn't startle you." Since he was surrounded by so many high-ranking officials, Boston was already on edge. He had momentarily spaced out and almost caused a mishap by running into Huxley, which left him flustered and a bit tongue-tied.Unlike the other generals, Boston didn't come from an influential background or have any powerful connections. He had worked his way up from the bottom, and the last thing he wanted was to offend Huxley and risk losing everything he had fought so hard for.

After parting ways with Boston, Jovian checked into a nearby hotel to await the good news. Boston wasted no time. After changing into a fresh set of clothes, he headed to the castle to deliver a letter of introduction. But when he arrived, he was stunned by what he saw.The gates of the West Lucozian monarchy had already gathered quite a few people, and among them were several figures he immediately recognized. These included Huxley Thatcher, the Commander of the Militia; Warrick Prescott, the Major General of the State Guard; and Percival Wentworth, the Chancellor of the National Academy.These three were first-ranking officials. In West Lucozia, they were nothing short of kingmakers who wielded immense power and influence. Warrick, in particular, was two ranks above Boston. Hence, he felt the need to be cautious in his presence and was eager not to make a bad impression.Alongside these three prominent figures, several second- and third-ranking officials also stood in line at

The following morning, Jovian stood at the entrance of West Lucozia Airport, wearing a sharp suit.Before the trip, he had contacted his comrade with whom he had fought side by side in the military. After earning military merit and with the Ballard family's influence, he was fortunate enough to stay in Oakvale and secure a decent position.His comrade, on the other hand, had moved to West Lucozia to carve out a life for himself. Years of hard work had paid off—he was now a third-rank general with considerable power, influence, and a strong network of connections. Jovian's meeting with the Prince of West Lucozia would depend entirely on his comrade's connections.Just then, the roar of an engine cut through the air as a military jeep pulled up beside him. The window rolled down, and the first thing that came into view was a bald head gleaming in the sunlight like a lightbulb. The glare nearly blinded him.Under that shiny dome was a face that looked ordinary at first glance. But w

"Grandfather, I understand why you sent Uncle Jonathan and Uncle Jensen to the Spanner and Fallon families to gather information," Natasha began. "But West Lucozia is thousands of miles away."She shook her head slightly. "They've always stayed out of the government's political matters. Sending Uncle Jovian there wouldn't achieve anything. He'd likely just be turned away." Oakvale and West Lucozia were worlds apart. The fight for the Oakvale throne didn't really affect the West Lucozian monarchy. Both sides had long adhered to an unspoken agreement to avoid meddling in each other's affairs."I know, but it'll be different this time. The royal throne is at stake, and every faction will do whatever it takes to secure West Lucozia's support. If the West Lucozian monarchy picks a side, the balance we've maintained for years will collapse. That's why I need to be ready for whatever happens," Simon replied.It would be best if the West Lucozian monarchy stayed out of the political strug

At the Ballard estate, Dustin was warmly welcomed to stay after dinner. This was the first time Natasha had brought her boyfriend home, so the Ballards made a big deal of it.Simon personally accompanied the young couple and invited them to the study to chat over tea. With his sharp eye, Simon could tell Dustin was no ordinary martial artist. His manners, speech, and broad knowledge set him apart from most people."Dustin, I fully support your relationship with Natasha. Your background or status doesn't matter. What matters most is that you two are happy together." Simon paused and said earnestly, "I want you to understand that she's been pampered all her life and hasn't faced much hardship. Now that she's with you, I hope you'll take good care of her.""Don't worry, Mr. Ballard. I would never let her down," Dustin replied sincerely.Though they had known each other for some time and hadn't yet taken their relationship to the next level, they had already made their feelings clear

After hearing Nathaniel's words, Tristan's expression darkened. His brow furrowed as he sank into deep thought.It seemed he had underestimated the situation. He had assumed it was just a simple rivalry between brothers; he hadn't anticipated Seamus seizing the chance to further his own agenda.Seamus already wielded considerable influence. Under the guise of supporting Matthias' ascension to the throne, he had been forming alliances and recruiting talents. His influence had grown to rival the royal family's.If Seamus really supported Matthias' ascension, he'd overshadow the king, and no one would be able to stop him. The worst-case scenario would be Seamus using Matthias as a puppet to overthrow the House of Linsor."Nathaniel, is everything you said true?" Tristan frowned."Absolutely. Every word," Nathaniel replied solemnly. "Of course, if you don't believe me, you can send someone to investigate.""I believe you. But… taking down Seamus won't be easy. Do you have a plan?" Tr

An hour later, Nathaniel quietly entered a private mansion wearing a disguise.Inside the living room, Tristan had already prepared tea and refreshments. He looked as if he had been waiting for a long time."Sorry to have kept you waiting, Tristan." Nathaniel took off his coat and walked forward with a smile."No need to apologize. I'm happy that you made the effort to arrange this. A few extra minutes are nothing, especially since it's rare for us to meet." Tristan gestured for him to sit while he poured two cups of tea and handed one to his brother.Nathaniel accepted the cup and discreetly set it aside. Whenever he was out, he was always cautious about food and drink—this wariness had become second nature."You asked to meet me on short notice. Is this about official matters or something personal?" Tristan took a sip from his cup and got straight to the point."Both," Nathaniel replied, still smiling."Oh?" Tristan raised an eyebrow. "Let's hear it, then.""Given how things

In another luxurious mansion in the Inner City, a female spy dressed in black, cloaked in a hood, was reporting the results of her investigation to Nathaniel."Your Highness, the Moseys have been particularly active recently and are rallying allies. Many of the eight great families and other influential factions have already allied with them. If left unchecked, they'll pose a serious threat to us," she said, kneeling with her head lowered slightly."So the Moseys are backing Matthias, huh?" Nathaniel sat quietly, his expression unreadable."The Moseys have grand ambitions. While they claim to support Prince Matthias, they're merely setting him up as a puppet to rise to power and expand their own influence," she revealed.She had been infiltrating the Moseys' mansion for years and had gained a deep understanding of their operations, from the smallest details to the key players.Though Seamus appeared as a benevolent philanthropist, it was all a façade. Behind closed doors, he was r

That night, two young men sat playing chess inside a secluded mansion in the Inner City. On the left was Anders, who had visited the Ballard estate earlier. Across from him sat Matthias, a broad-shouldered man dressed in richly adorned robes.The game was intense, with fast moves followed by moments of deep thought. About ten minutes later, Anders finally conceded defeat."Anders, you've really improved since we last played. You almost had me there," Matthias said, stroking his beard in mild surprise."You flatter me, Your Highness. My chess skills are nothing compared to yours. If you hadn't gone easy on me, I wouldn't have lasted half as long," Anders replied with a modest smile."You're as smooth with words as ever." Matthias let out a hearty laugh with a look of smug satisfaction. Winning was in his nature—whether in war or on the chessboard, defeat was not an option."Well, we've eaten, and we've played. Let's get to business." With a wave of his hand, he signaled his men t
