"Matthias, no, Mr. Lowell, we were wrong!! We'll do anything as long as you spare our family!"

Wilfred sounded submissive and sincere as he continued to say, "The Stoermer family has businesses across the nation, supporting hundreds of thousands of lives and contributing to the well-being of millions.

"If we were destroyed, the resulting impact would be unimaginable. Ordinary people would suffer, and high-ranking officials in New Avalbourne would surely notice.

"Mr. Lowell, wiping out an entire family over a minor issue would be unreasonable. Besides, you'll have to face the wrath of the New Avalbourne's leaders. It's simply unwise!"

Matthias snickered when he heard Wilfred's plea.

Was he trying to use political leverage to threaten him?

Guilt-tripping him by using the lives of the commoners?

"Is this how you apologize? Old man, do you really think I care about any of this?

"If I decide to destroy you, no one will dare to object!

"Now that you've lost your force, you're trying

    Brock's lips twitched as he ignored the pleading Stoermer family members and approached Matthias with a respectful tone."Greetings, Mr. Lowell!"Silence instantly filled the room.It was so quiet that they could hear the sound of a pin dropping in that tense atmosphere.Everyone present was stunned.The leaders of Havenwood's top families were dumbfounded, unable to believe their eyes.The Stoermers were in shock, their minds blank.What did they just witness?Brock had addressed Matthias formally, and his tone was exceedingly humble!Wilfred was so overwhelmed that he passed out.Who was Matthias, and what kind of power had they truly provoked?"Is there a problem? Are you here to protect the Stoermer family?" Matthias asked, not even bothered to look at Brock"No, no! Mr. Lowell, you misunderstood. The Stoermer family deserves to be destroyed. If you wish to eliminate them, that's only right. The governor's office has no objections whatsoever!" Brock hurriedly explained,

    Just like that, the Stoermer family was wiped out!They were a formidable force in Havenwood for the past millennia, with their influence and connections extending throughout the region.Yet, they vanished without a trace overnight.When the sun rose the next day, the ordinary people of Havenwood remained unaware that such a powerful family had disappeared.After all, the average person was busy with their daily struggles, and the elite families were far from reach. Many would never even come into contact with the children of such families.However, some employees arriving at their workplaces noticed a sudden change—new faces occupied high-ranking positions previously held by the Stoermers.Naturally, the other prominent families in Havenwood, aware of the Stoermers' downfall, chose to remain silent, pretending nothing had happened.They were too fearful to discuss it openly.After Matthias left the Stoermer mansion, Brock stayed behind to handle the aftermath.He had instruct

    Leona did not want Danielle to be raised as a pampered socialite.She wanted Danielle to live without worry.Matthew keenly noticed they were about to argue over that, and he quickly bit his tongue, holding back his suggestion for a daily convoy to take Danielle to school.With his suggestions dismissed, Matthias played with Danielle, and the two were having a blast.Suddenly, the loud sound of a stack of enrollment brochures hitting the table interrupted their fun.Leona glared at the father and daughter with a cold expression.While she was busy selecting the most suitable kindergartens and barely had time to pause, the two spent their time playing.Danielle was still a child, so it was understandable.However, Matthias was a grown man!Was he that frivolous?"Matthias, are you really taking Dani's schooling so lightly? What if we choose the wrong school, and Dani ends up unhappy? Who will be responsible then?"Leona's frustration grew as she glared at Matthias.Matthias

    Caleb Hewitt was another typical wealthy heir.Throughout college, he had a new woman on his arm every other week and was known as a notorious playboy in Grandview University's finance department.Just three years out of college, Caleb already held a high position in the family business.However, he had never shed his old habits. Over the years, he had used his family's influence to pursue many women, but there was one he had never been able to find—Leona.He thought he would never see her again, but fate had other plans.Caleb was stunned to run into Leona, but his heart ached when he saw her with a man and a young girl.It was as if something that once belonged to him was snatched away.His smile remained, but a cold glint appeared in his eyes.He could not believe Leona was married, even had someone else's child!He obsessively believed Leona's first time should be his and his only!Suddenly, a twisted thought flashed in his mind, and his eyes lit up.Caleb decided that a

    With that in mind, Caleb's smile grew even brighter."No need for that, Caleb. Let's catch up another time," Leona said impatiently.She had no desire to continue the conversation with him."And by the way, we weren't close in college, so please mind your boundaries. I'm a married woman, after all," she said.Caleb's smile faltered slightly, but he quickly recovered.He glanced at Matthias and spoke with disdain, "Oh, come on, Leona. We were college classmates. Your husband wouldn't mind, right? Surely, a grown man wouldn't be so petty?"Caleb turned his gaze back to Matthias.Though he maintained a friendly demeanor, his gaze held a subtle threat.Caleb thought a man who could not afford a car was not worth much respect. He had even dealt with women whose husbands had sold out, and he suspected that intimidating Matthias might get him to cooperate.Matthias met Caleb's gaze and smiled."Oh, I do mind, and I'm quite petty. So, please mind your boundaries."Caleb was stunned.

    As Matthias and the rest entered the store, Olivia Winter, the store manager, greeted them with a warm smile.Caleb and Leona had encountered each other right outside the store, and Caleb was a regular customer.Olivia had been waiting for them to come in, knowing that Caleb's generous spending would likely boost her monthly sales."Mr. Hewitt, it's been a while! Is there a particular style you're interested in? We've just received some new arrivals. Would you like me to show you?"Olivia focused on Caleb and merely nodded politely at Matthias and his family. After all, Caleb was the real high-spender.From the snippets of conversation she had overheard, it was clear that Matthias and his family were just ordinary people. Furthermore, Olivia's disdain grew as she thought about how Matthias had never bought anything for Leona.They were probably married for a few years, considering their daughter's age.How could a man not provide for his wife?Caleb's expression turned scornful

    "Forget it. I don't really like this dress," Leona said, not looking too pleased.She had never spent such an extravagant amount on a single item of clothing; she thought it was a waste of money."Mommy, just try it on. I want to see you in a pretty dress!" Danielle's clear voice chimed in, tugging at Leona's hand with hopeful eyes.She thought the dress was beautiful and was disappointed that there were no options for children."Come on, just try it on for Dani's sake," Matthias said.Leona hesitated, her resolve wavering.She decided to try it on but decided not to buy it."Hello, may I please try on this dress?"Olivia flashed her a polite, professional smile and said. "Sorry, ma'am, but because of the high price of this dress, we can only let you try it on if you're a member of our store or can prove you have the means to purchase it."She was not purposely being difficult; it was simply store policy.Besides, Leona and her family did not seem like the type who could affo

    After learning that Matthias was unemployed, Caleb completely disregarded him.His tone was arrogant. "I forgot to introduce myself. I'm the Vice Chairman of Hewitt Enterprises. We have extensive interests in Havenwood—jewelry, real estate, shopping malls, you name it."If you're looking for a job, I can help you out. While executive positions might be tough, entry-level roles like security or cashier are not a problem. I can get you set up right away. You'd be looking at around 1,000 dollars a month."Caleb's voice was dripping with contempt, and he did not hide his disdain for Matthias.Caleb thought Leona must have been blind to end up with a loser like Matthias!Matthias smiled politely, not even sparing Caleb a glance."Thanks, but I'm not looking for work right now. I just want to focus on taking care of my family."As Matthias gently patted Danielle's head, Caleb's disgust grew.He was a man living off his wife and acting as if it were his right.However, Caleb's mood l

    Clearly, Matthias did not hold back as Roland's body flew far, blood spewing from his mouth even before he hit the ground.His action shocked the Lowell family members, their faces filled with fear. Pierre was the first to kneel, followed quickly by the others."I came here today to ask if you regret your actions and to destroy you, not to negotiate," Matthias stated coldly. "Any chance of reconciliation between the Lowell family and me vanished the moment you drove my parents to their deaths."I said I'd destroy the Lowell family and that East Mountain would become my parents' grave. What? Is the word of the leader of the Legion of the Unbreakable so meaningless to nobodies like you?"Pierre and the others turned pale, finally realizing Matthias truly intended to destroy them."No! The Lowell family has a history that spans thousands of years. It can't end with me! I admit I was foolish back then. I'm willing to pay any price to make amends!" Pierre pleaded."Please calm down.

    On East Mountain, all the guests invited to the Lowell family's gathering stood frozen, their faces blank with shock and disbelief.Ten minutes earlier, they had been confident of the Lowell family's victory, treating the confrontation with Matthias as a mere game. However, the tables had turned—the mountain echoed with the sounds of battle, and the Lowell family's pride, the seemingly invincible Crimson Titans, were being slaughtered by Matthias' forces.Furthermore, Frederick had taken his own life. Pierre, who had always been above everything, thinking he controlled everything, was on his knees, begging Matthias for mercy.That sudden turn of events left them all stunned and trembling in fear. Those quick to flatter the Lowell family and rebuke Matthias wished they could go back in time and slap themselves.Matthias was the leader of the Legion of the Unbreakable, the most feared organization in the international warzone. Everyone finally realized that their actions, including t

    "I'll make East Mountain the foundation and the lives of all Lowell family members the grave. You betrayed my parents and my friend. I'll make you atone for your sins for generations to come!"Legion of the Unbreakable! Where are you?" Matthias called out.When Matthias finished speaking, countless powerful and terrifying auras suddenly erupted across East Mountain. The sky seemed to darken, heavy clouds gathering ominously.A group suddenly appeared to the east of the 4000 Crimson Titans warriors. Five figures at the forefront unleashed terrifying auras, charging into the center of the Crimson Titans' formation with unstoppable momentum."We're Lambda, Upsilon, Delta, Eta, and Pi of the Legion of the Unbreakable. We stood by Lord Matthias to destroy our enemies!"To the west, another five figures appeared; behind them, ten more. In other directions, more people emerged."Chi, here with Lord Matthias to annihilate our foes!""Nu, obeying Lord Matthias to eradicate our enemies! T

    Just as Frederick's hand was about to strike Wyatt's head, a figure suddenly appeared before him, moving so fast that it caught Frederick off guard. Before he knew it, a sharp pain shot through his chest.Frederick was shocked to find himself flying backward. Not only that, but Matthias was the one who struck him. He could not believe it, his mind buzzing from the surprise and confusion.As Frederick's body slammed hard into the ground, he coughed up blood, his eyes wide with disbelief. It seemed he had been severely injured by just a single kick from Matthias.A deathly silence fell over the crowd, and everyone was stunned by what they had just witnessed. They could not believe their eyes—the leader of the Crimson Titans, a top-tier warrior, had been sent flying by Matthias' kick.Even the 4000 Crimson Titans warriors were momentarily stunned, unable to comprehend how a single kick from Matthias defeated Frederick."I told you I came here to destroy all of you. Did you not take m

    Wyatt's eyes were red, his heart heavy with the guilt of a decision that had haunted him for a lifetime."So, the Alistair who died back then was actually my son, Dexter. The real Alistair is Matthias, this man standing before you now! He's the true heir to the Lowell family! I, Wyatt Armstrong, swear on my life that everything I've said is the truth!" Wyatt shouted, his face pleading as he looked toward the assembled family heads.For a moment, the crowd fell silent. Finally, they understood why Matthias claimed to be Alistair.Among the crowd, some family members' eyes flickered with sympathy. They knew Wyatt was telling the truth, but they could not acknowledge it because doing so would mean offending the Lowell family."How ridiculous! What a joke!" Pierre suddenly burst into laughter, then fixed his gaze on Wyatt, his eyes filled with rage."You're nothing but a lowly servant. I never thought you'd betray us and side with outsiders against the Lowell family! You ungrateful do

    Matthias moved past Alpha and approached Frederick.His gaze swept over Pierre and the others as he continued speaking, "Since the city's most prominent families are gathered here today, I simply want to recount past events in front of everyone."I didn't expect that as soon as I opened my mouth, you'd all jump to silence me. Are you afraid that the truth will tarnish your reputation?""How dare you! Absolute nonsense!" Pierre suddenly lashed out, his face dark with anger.He glared at Matthias and spoke with added emphasis, "You're nothing but a nobody, impersonating a member of the Lowell family, spouting lies and fear mongering. The truth? I've already told the truth about what happened back then. Do you think the heads of these distinguished families will believe the words of a fraud like you?""Exactly. The tragedy that happened to Oswald and his family scarred us. You're a nobody, repeatedly picking at the Lowell family's wounds with your little tricks. Do you really think a

    The Crimson Titans warriors were restless, waiting for Frederick's command to charge en masse, whereas the Lowell family members looked slightly uneasy but still believed they had everything under control.The guests whispered among themselves. They knew Matthias and his subordinates were Supreme-level warriors and were puzzled as to why Frederick, as the leader of the Crimson Titans, could not defeat Matthias' man. In fact, the two men were still standing in place.Suddenly, two figures burst from the crowd—Draco and Gorgon, the other two Supreme-level warriors of the Crimson Titans."Alpha, stand down," Matthias said calmly.Alpha immediately released Frederick but remained in front of Matthias. Though he knew even the three opponents together were no match for Matthias, as a subordinate, he could not allow such insignificant beings to threaten his leader.Unexpectedly, Frederick quickly retreated, stopping Draco and Gorgon from intervening."Matthias, no wonder you're so confi

    The Lowell family members scoffed at Matthias' words. With the Crimson Titans army and three Supreme-level warriors on their side, how could they not be assured of victory?"Matthias, stop your clownish behavior. Bring your people out and face the Crimson Titans' fury!" Pierre taunted, exuding an air of complete control."Game over, Matthias. Today, you'll all die here because of your past foolishness!" Frederick sneered, ready to order an attack at any moment.However, Matthias remained indifferent to Pierre and Frederick's words. Instead, he continued speaking as if to himself."Ten years ago, the previous Lowell family head, Oswald, traveled abroad with his wife and child to check on the Crimson Titans, the family's military unit in the warzone," Matthias said. "Little did he know, he was walking into a trap set for him long before."Matthias turned to Pierre, his eyes filled with hatred and anguish. "I bet you didn't expect that he knew it was a trap, but he went without hesit

    Matthias and his group slowly ascend the mountain. Behind him were Leona, Danielle, Wyat's family, Alpha, and several warriors from the Legion of the Unbreakable.Meanwhile, the Lowell family and their guests were descending hurriedly, their presence intimidating and their numbers overwhelming.When both groups spotted each other, Matthias remained indifferent. After all, every member of the Lowell family was long dead in his eyes.However, the Lowells were seething with anger. Matthias' bold attempt to ascend the mountain was seen as a disgrace to their family—never before had anyone dared to challenge them like that.Frederick led the Crimson Titans and quickened his pace, fearing Matthias might turn tail and flee upon seeing their formidable force. In an instant, the two groups met, with barely 50 meters between them. Then, Frederick raised his hand, and the Crimson Titans halted immediately, demonstrating their strict discipline.Matthias stopped as well, staring at Frederick
