At the Whitney residence in St. Merilo.The same night Matthias ordered the Shadows to go to New Avalbourne, four of them arrived.They were all women, known by their code names—Magnolia, Orchid, Gardenia, and Aster.Apart from the Shadows' leader, Night, they were the strongest within the Shadows, each possessing Supreme-level combat abilities.Any of them could have established a top-tier organization in the community, but they remained hidden within the Legion of the Unbreakable, serving as its shadow.Furthermore, the Shadows were loyal solely to Matthias, unwavering in their dedication.Those four would be responsible for protecting Leona and Danielle.With their presence, not even a minor threat like Alden or even a leader of a global power could harm them."I'm counting on you!" Matthias said sincerely, addressing the four women in a secret chamber.He was determined to prevent his family from getting hurt again."Lord Matthias, rest assured that we will protect your f
The Stoermer family members watched the spectacular scene before them, their faces flushed with excitement as they clenched their fists tightly.That was the Stoermer family's power!That was their trump card!Once unleashed, it would surely make all of Havenwood bow in submission!Wilfred laughed heartily, striding forward to personally welcome the legend of the Stoermer family, his beloved son, Kurtis."What a wonderful day! Today, the Stoermer family will make every family in Havenwood tremble!"The core members of the Stoermer family followed, their heads held high."Dad, I'm back!" Kurtis quickly descended from the plane, moving toward Wilfred excitedly."Kurtis, you must help our family! We've been bullied by an insignificant fool!" Wilfred spoke with anger and excitement, though mostly with pride.The head of the House of Hurricane was his son!"Dad, now that I'm back in Havenwood, I'll make sure those who have ever crossed the Stoermer family pay for their actions!" K
Kurtis' voice dripped with contempt.To him, no one from the small city of St. Merilo could compare to his experienced warriors, and sending ten men to capture Matthias was already a great honor."That's great! Well done!" Wilfred laughed, and the rest of the Stoermer family looked thrilled.After all, the more relaxed Kurtis seemed, the stronger the Stoermer family's hidden power appeared."We'll leave it to you, Kurtis. Do as you see fit," Wilfred said, his face full of pride.The Stoermer family and their 3,000 warriors made a grand return to the Stoermer mansion, attracting the attention of many elite families along the way.The entire Havenwood was stunned by the display of power.The Stoermer family's trump card was so powerful that no one dared to oppose them.Soon, many of Havenwood's influential families made their way to the Stoermer mansion to pay respects to Kurtis, the leader of the House of Hurricane.Allies took the opportunity to strengthen their ties, while fo
Meanwhile, Matthias and his family were leisurely preparing to move to Havenwood.Leona had no objections to Matthias' suggestion.St. Merilo was filled with painful memories for her and Danielle, and she had long wanted to leave.Matthias decided to share some details about his true identity with Leona.Essentially, he told her that her husband was a very important figure.However, instead of the shocked and amazed reaction Matthias had anticipated, Leona's face showed a hint of skepticism.She brushed him off and replied, "Okay. I got it."It left Matthias feeling somewhat frustrated.He believed anyone who learned his true identity would be utterly stunned.Yet, Leona seemed to think he was lying.Was his status as the Leader of the Unbreakables really that unimpressive?Nevertheless, what mattered was that he had told her the truth and planned to gradually prove it to her.There was no need to keep his identity a secret from his family.Besides, knowing who he was woul
"Exactly! Although Kurtis has become an influential leader, he still cares deeply for New Avalbourne, helping us significantly in the warzone abroad."Havenwood has produced a great hero, and it's only fitting that all the prominent families' heads come to congratulate him," Percy said.That day, the Stoermer family was the star of Havenwood, and Percy felt confident to speak without worrying about how his words might be relayed to officials later.They simply did not care about such matters then.An elder, the head of Havenwood's Graham family and a close ally of the Stoermer family, smiled and said, "Yes, I agree. Kurtis is now a ruler in his own right, but his roots are here in Havenwood."We, your fellow townspeople, are proud of you. How can we possibly let you feel unwelcome since you're a hero?"He was genuinely pleased about the Stoermer family's strength.Many other family heads joined in, offering various compliments.Kurtis smiled, and he could not care less if their
The woman, it turned out, was a college classmate of Ezekiel's.When Nolan attempted to take her, Ezekiel intervened, leading to a physical fight where Nolan ended up in the hospital.Wilfred was furious and demanded an apology from the Harringtons.However, the Harringtons believed Ezekiel had done the right thing and refused to appease the Stoermers' anger.As a result, the Harringtons faced significant hardships imposed by the Stoermers.Three years had passed, but it seemed the Stoermers had not forgotten.After Phineas and Ezekiel spoke up, others in the hall followed suit."I'm Ralph Bowie, head of the Bowie family, and I also apologize to the Stoermers!""The Spark family seeks forgiveness from the Stoermers."Representatives from nine families had eagerly stepped forward to apologize to the Stoermers.Their attitudes were humble, each one slightly bowing in respect.The hall fell silent as everyone looked up at Kurtis on the throne.He seemed indifferent, and his ey
Kurtis' expression gradually softened when he saw someone knelt.However, when the Harringtons did not move, his eyes grew colder."What's this? There are still a few families not kneeling before me. Do you want to test the strength of my 3,000 soldiers?"The hall remained silent, and the members of the Stoermer family looked down arrogantly at those confessing.It was clear that no one in Havenwood would dare challenge the Stoermers after that incident.Kurtis was their ultimate source of force!Most onlookers kept their distance, unconcerned about the situation since it was not affecting them directly. However, some kind-hearted ones still felt pity for the Harringtons.Even so, that was all they could do.The Stoermers' power was overwhelming, and the Harringtons had no choice but to submit!The Harringtons and the other families were filled with anger and resentment.Kurtis had forced them to go to such extremes over minor disputes!Kneeling and surrendering half their a
As for whether Matthias had killed his men, Kurtis did not care.Even if Matthias had killed them, so what?Kurtis had 3,000 warriors! Matthias was no match for him.Furthermore, Kurtis was already a Baron-level warrior, and he was powerful.He had every reason to be confident!"Regardless, waiting for Matthias to come to us might make the Stoermer family look weak!"Kurtis' tone shifted, a fierce glint in his eye. Then, he shouted toward the hall's entrance."Order 100 men to capture Matthias and bring him to me! If he escapes, kill everyone associated with him!""Yes, Lord Kurtis!" came the immediate response from outside the hall.Everyone inside was terrified.Kurtis, the head of the House of Hurricane, was decisive and forceful, leaving everyone in awe.The loss of the ten men did not diminish their fear of Kurtis, as ten men were nothing compared to his 3,000.Kurtis' anger flared when he saw Phineas and Ezekiel still standing.He shouted, "Why aren't you kneeling ye
