The Sea Gazing Restaurant was brightly lit. Many luxury cars were parked at the entrance, indicating that this restaurant was special; only the wealthy or influential could host events there.At that moment, there was a group of about 20 men and women, many of whom looked around curiously, clearly astounded by everything.The group was led by a handsome and charming man dressed in luxurious attire. His name was Graham Padilla, the party's sponsor. A stunning woman stood beside him.The woman wore a long black dress and had a graceful figure that exuded a distinct charm even with her light makeup.Behind them, Javier, their class monitor, exclaimed loudly, "This is one of the four famous restaurants in Hodbridge, Sea Gazing Restaurant.""This isn't an ordinary location. A casual meal here costs more than a few thousand dollars, which I doubt any of you have ever encountered. Today, we're fortunate to have Graham's hospitality. Otherwise, we may never have had the opportunity.""Ye
Just then, the manager noticed Henry, whom everyone behind him was afraid of.The manager shivered slightly, especially as Henry blended in with the crowd.Henry and the two ladies arrived late, and Hilary noticed everyone gathered as if no more private rooms were available.She could not help but lean forward to investigate. Cheryl followed suit, and then Henry showed up.Hilary asked, "What's going on?""Someone took our private room, and there's none left now. They told us we had to sit in the main dining hall," a classmate said.Graham found himself in a difficult situation. He could not afford to be embarrassed, especially given his desire to demonstrate his power and influence that day. Otherwise, he would not have publicly forced Christina to be his girlfriend.He wanted to exact revenge and flaunt his power, enjoying everyone's compliments. He never imagined he would be embarrassed before even starting."Please get us a private room. The Padillas are involved in several
"Who is this, Cheryl?"Graham had always wanted to stay in touch with Cheryl but could not find her. She unexpectedly showed up that day, but Graham quickly noticed Henry.Cheryl was taken aback and considered how to introduce Henry."I'm Henry, Cheryl's boyfriend," Henry said calmly.Graham's expression changed immediately upon hearing Henry's words. Even though they had not seen each other in a long time, he still had feelings for Cheryl. That party was supposed to be about showcasing his accomplishments, but he unexpectedly ran into Cheryl.However, he did not immediately become hostile, instead chuckling and saying, "That's not true, right? Why would you fall for someone like him?"Henry shook his head in response to Graham's juvenile remarks.Cheryl was initially pleased and shy when she heard Henry's introduction. However, when she heard Graham's words, she immediately said, "Graham, remember your words. Henry isn't an ordinary man. I'm not even worthy of him.""Cheryl, y
Graham seemed unconcerned about how much he was debasing himself or even scaring others away. He said, "Christina, tell everyone—are you my slave?"Christina appeared embarrassed, tears of humiliation shimmering in her eyes, but she replied, "Yes, I'm Graham's slave!""Ms. Ross! You don't have to do this!"Cheryl became anxious and asked, "Are you in trouble? Tell me. We can help you."She might not have a solution, but Henry, who was capable of anything, would be able to help Christina. After all, she realized Henry was extremely powerful after all the incidents they had experienced.Christina hesitated; she did not say anything. She was over 100,000 dollars in debt. Cheryl was a poor student, and her boyfriend did not look impressive. They would not be able to help her."Hey, you want to help her? Has your family suddenly struck gold?" Graham asked indifferently."None of your business!" Cheryl responded."It's about money, right? How much?" she asked."Forget it, Cheryl. Wh
No one believed in Henry except for Cheryl. She knew that Henry must have a reason for what he was doing.As they all looked at him mockingly, Henry remained calm and said, "Very well, your boyfriend must be proud to have a girlfriend like you.""Of course, unlike Cheryl, who found someone like you, who's nothing but a fake and trashy jerk."Everyone only knew Graham was rich, and he sponsored the party. He had always been the center of attention. Laurie finally managed to draw everyone's attention to herself; she felt extremely smug.She did not believe Henry could do anything. Pretending to call the CEO was an absurd joke.Henry's call was promptly answered."Mr. Truman!"Dustin was attending a meeting. When he saw the number, he immediately stopped the meeting and took the call. Everyone was surprised. Even though it had only been a short time, Dustin's efficiency had already earned everyone's respect. They had never seen the CEO show such respect for anyone, let alone over t
Hilary agreed with Graham.Cheryl looked coldly at Graham and said, "First and foremost, it's my own business."That statement also implied Hilary."Secondly, I believe in Henry. Whatever he says."When Hilary heard that, she was speechless. Then, she asked, "Do you still believe him after all that nonsense?""Of course! And Hilary, if you keep targeting Henry like this, don't blame me for ending our friendship," Cheryl was outraged by Hilary's words.Hilary was stunned. She had not expected Cheryl to be so harsh toward her because of Henry.She responded angrily, "You want to end our friendship for this lousy liar?""He's not a liar," Cheryl replied."Fine. Let's bet on it. If Laurie's boyfriend gets in trouble tomorrow because he was reported, I'll believe everything Henry says and won't prevent you from being together in the future."If that doesn't happen, you'll never see him again. Are you in?" Hilary spoke loudly.Cheryl hesitated. Even though she believed in Henry, c
Noel left after that. As he walked away, he glanced at Henry and hesitated momentarily before passing him by.Henry had noticed and knew Noel was offering all that because of him.However, Graham was unaware of it. He was overjoyed because he thought his reputation was well-established.Everyone else assumed the special treatment was due to Graham's reputation, and Laurie no longer dared to act so arrogantly. She had initially held high regard for her boyfriend.In the public's eyes, the Skyline Corporation had become almost a force unto itself, comparable in strength to Hodbridge's four great families.However, she realized her boyfriend was not as impressive as she had thought."Graham, here's my toast to you. You've truly opened our eyes today.""I've heard that the Sea Gazing Restaurant is only for the rich and noble. Not to mention that the general manager is extremely courteous to you.""Yes, even though I haven't been here before, I've heard many stories about Sea Gazing
Henry remained calm and said, "That's because you don't understand her fully. Given her status, she has access to various delicacies!"He implied that Cheryl was his sister and, given his abilities, she could have whatever she wanted.Hilary was speechless.Henry's serious expression suggested he was stating a fact.Graham and the others did not believe him. They jokingly asked, "If you're really that awesome, why don't you treat us to dinner tonight?""Me? Am I crazy? Why should I treat you when we aren't close friends?" Henry shook his head."Anyway, let's not argue with him. He predicted that something would happen to Laurie's boyfriend tonight. If nothing happens, we'll take care of him tonight."Javier spoke up, providing an opportunity to embarrass Henry."That's right, let's give him two more hours," Laurie said coldly."There's no need; you can call and ask him right now. If everything goes according to plan, he should already be apprehended."Dustin should have made
At that point, everything there was over.After everyone dispersed, Shane laughed as he stepped forward. "Henry, you gave me a big surprise this time."I thought you'd need at least five years to catch up to them. I didn't expect you to have achieved such strength. This is entirely beyond my imagination."May I ask what level of strength you are at now?"Shane was curious.Henry shrugged helplessly and said, "I don't know it. There's no one to compare with."I only know that if I use my full strength, I can destroy a city with one single wave of my sword."Everyone was utterly stunned, and they murmured helplessly, "Pervert!"Shane was speechless. He shook his head. "Young man, you really amazed me. By the way, when are you getting engaged? Don't delay for too long; I don't have much time left."He was delighted with Henry and was hoping to be able to attend their wedding.Henry smiled and said, "Elder Master Drayson, have you forgotten what I said yesterday? I'll help you re
Henry's domineering words made the people of Aurelia excited.They were so enthusiastic that they had to express their excitement.However, they were confused when Henry ordered them to launch the missiles.What did Henry mean? Why did Henry order the launching of the missiles? Everyone was curious.Everyone else was dumbfounded, too. What order was that?Everyone had doubts in their mind.At the same time, the person at the missile base was sweating profusely. He had to execute the order under any circumstances, and he was so nervous that he could not help but reconfirm the order again.Frederick nodded. He had looked into the matter personally to ensure everything was in place without error.If he had not seen Henry's extraordinary strength with his own eyes, he would not have believed that Henry had planned everything. He had even met with Frederick earlier in the morning and made the request.Henry wanted to show how powerful he was in deterring anyone from creating unnece
There were words of praise, excitement, and admiration in Aurelia.In their opinion, Henry was Aurelia's protector.In other places, people were amazed and fearful of Henry's strength.Henry did not care about that. He remembered that there were many troublemakers earlier.In a deep voice, he said, "I heard that over these past few days, many looked down on Aurelia's battling skills because no one was here to deal with them."In that case, I'll let them see how powerful Aurelia's battling skills are. There's no need to trouble those masters who are in seclusion. Those present today can do the same job."Step forward, Jensen."Jensen was stunned. When he heard Henry's order, he quickly gathered his thoughts. He stepped forward and said respectfully, "Yes, Mr. Truman."Jensen was a powerful master trained by Henry. His terrifying aura was clearly displayed at that moment.In an instant, the whole world could feel his strong force. The powerful force gathered in the air made ever
Henry waved his right hand. Jorge flew out of the platform and landed near the few Islehaveners beside their ambassador.Henry had sent Jorge back to them.Next, it would be Lucifer's turn.The audience looked at Henry with admiration and were shocked.Shane and the others who supported Henry were really excited. Earlier, they had thought Aurelia would face a big crisis. They did not expect Henry to solve the matter so easily.Although Lucifer had yet to make a move, it was impossible for Lucifer to defeat Henry so easily."Lucifer, you're up," Henry said.Everyone's heart trembled.The crowd was familiar with Lucifer. He became famous after the battle the day before.It was obvious that Lucifer was much stronger than Jorge. Most importantly, he represented the powerful Westin.Lucifer snorted coldly. He stepped forward and spread his fourteen wings. He looked overpowering and extremely terrifying.The huge pressure created by the wings made everyone feel breathless.Howeve
Jorge's expression looked horrible. He had already taken the first step. Everything would go in vain if he were to give up.So, he got up, knelt in front of Henry again, and shouted, "I'm sorry, I was wrong!"Slap, slap!Another few heavy slaps on him.Jorge was utterly stunned; he was also shocked and angry."Your voice is too loud. It's disturbing," Henry said.At that moment, any fool would know Henry did it intentionally. He deliberately played tricks on Jorge.That made the Islehaveners feel even more ashamed.An ambassador of Islehaven who was watching the battle stepped forward and said, "Stop! Stop! You're destroying—""Get lost," Henry snorted coldly and waved his right hand.Even though the ambassador was a few hundred meters away, he immediately felt a massive pain in his chest. He flew backward about ten meters away and fainted as he landed on the ground.He was then dragged away.Everyone was shocked.Jorge's expression looked extremely ugly. The pain on his c
Henry's voice contained powerful mental pressure. He controlled it so well that it only targeted Jorge."No!" Jorge gritted his teeth and roared. The power around him gathered crazily, forming a huge and terrifying force he was trying to resist.Everyone was shocked when they saw that.A huge tornado formed above Jorge's head, and a powerful force burst out crazily. Once again, he displayed his amazing and terrifying strength.The overwhelming pressure shocked everyone.Everyone in the country saw that. They were extremely excited. "I knew it. Jorge was only fooling with him. He's showing his real strength now.""That's right. He's finally fighting back. He must teach that guy a cruel lesson."They were all excited. However, their excitement disappeared the next moment, and their expression looked horrible.At that moment, Henry, with a disdainful look, raised his right hand and pressed on the tornado lightly.The terrifying force on Jorge dissipated completely in an instant.
"He's my idol, too!""Mine, too.""Stop pretending. Weren't you arrogant and proud earlier? Keep it going."At that moment, the people of Aurelia cheered, both online and those who were there. Everyone who knew Henry and was close to him was also extremely excited.In contrast, the faces of the people of Islehaven looked ugly; they could not believe what they had seen.They saw Jorge as powerful as God. How could he be crushed? He was even slapped in public, equivalent to a slap on everyone's face. They were furious."Cheater! He must be cheating!""That is a conspiracy. It must be a conspiracy!""Jorge, did you hold back? You wanted them to be happy first and then would beat them out of their asses later?""Get up! Show them how powerful the people of Islehaven are."Similarly, the reaction of the people from the Westin countries was not good either. Everyone was shocked.Some were amazed at Henry's power.Of course, many other countries expressed their support for Aurelia
Jorge frowned when Henry walked up to the platform. He realized he did not manage to sense Henry's strength and power at all.There were only two possibilities. The first was that Henry was so much stronger than himself that Jorge could not sense his strength. Jorge had already managed to sense Shane and Lucifer's strength.Henry could not be much stronger than the two of them.The other possibility was that Henry had learned a secret technique to conceal his strength.If Jorge did not guess wrongly, it should be the latter.'Trying to scare me with that hideous trick?'Jorge sneered and said disdainfully, "Henry, you coward. Are you finally willing to come forward now? I thought you were going to stay hidden forever."Henry smiled, but his smile was a little cold. He said, "Hide? Since when do I need to hide? About half a month ago, you and your master, Lucifer, had to flee from Aurelia. Have you forgotten about that?""Nonsense!"Jorge was furious when he heard that. First,
"I do hope there are stronger masters today; at least let me warm up a little. Otherwise, it'll be really boring for me."Also, I won't be holding back today. Life and death are not considerations once we're on the platform. I'd like to see if anyone in Aurelia isn't afraid of death."As soon as he said that, many people commented again. Many people were thinking about Henry, whom Jorge had mentioned, but Henry had yet to appear.Many Aurelian masters were furious when they heard Jorge's words and were about to rush to the platform.Flynn stepped forward and was about to go up onto the platform.However, Henry took the lead and went to the platform.Manish, standing next to him, was stunned for a moment. He was the strongest master among the several Worship Masters. Manish was stronger than Albus, but he did not stop Henry.Albus specifically instructed him to arrange for Flynn to join the fight first. Even though he would not be able to defeat Jorge, at least he could exhaust t
