"W—What?" Amber sputtered, not able to believe what Alexander had said. "You talked to them?"Even the police could not do anything about them!"You're not kidding with me, are you, Alex?" Amber grabbed his arm excitedly.Alexander smiled. "Of course. Why would I lie to my wife?"Amber was elated.W
In the VIP room at the Imperial Bathhouse."Fuck off! Everyone, just fuck off!" Neil chased off the few scantily clad masseuses around him before turning to glare at the tattooed man next to him."Your men are useless, Nick Panther! They couldn't even handle a bitch like Amber Chesire! I paid you fo
"A—Alex! Are you alright?" Amber slowly came to her senses. She might be shocked, but she was more worried.While Alexander was an impressive fighter, he went up against almost 40 thugs. He might have gotten hurt!"How would these weaklings get to hurt me?" Alexander walked over to Amber and smiled.

"I don't feel good troubling you again, Nick." Neil watched on at the side, sipping his tea. "I'll think of something for my problem. You don't have to return the money I gave you previously," he added sarcastically.Nick turned to look at him. He clenched his fists even tighter.Losing a limb or tw
"B—Boss?" Nick Panther's men were shocked by the sight.Ray and the others, too, were just as baffled.Nick Panther, the infamous ruthless thug of Ol' Mare, had his head shoved to the ground by Alexander.Nick's men were especially frightened. They threw their weapons to the ground and lowered their
"You want to complain, you say? What right do you have to complain?"The saleswoman menacingly added, "You're poor, yet you want to pretend you're a wealthy customer? I despise bitches like you the most! If you have the money, buy the entire store! If you can't carry them home, I'll do it for you! I
"Kill!" As Alexander stepped onto the Empyrean Slope, a monstrous wave of killing intent crashed into his mind."Hmph, you think you're the only one fierce?" he muttered coldly, unleashing his own killing intent to counter the assault.He was the Temple Lord Kane, a man who had tread through mountai
At Battleforge Summit, a place where peril lurked at every turn.As the group continued their ascent, they lost a few more members. The ancient battlefield was riddled with deadly traps and poisonous remnants. The pools along the way harbored creatures so aggressive, it was clear they were not of mo
"Ah…" Alexander yawned, waiting patiently. Without a proper map, he would probably take half a day searching for directions. Battleforge Summit, though seemingly small, had a complex terrain.Time was slipping away, and Maxwell and Crimson Wyrm Master finally reached an agreement. The two-meter-wide

"Enemy attack!"Brenda sprang to her feet, drawing her sharp blade. Tensions had been high lately, and everyone's nerves were on edge."Perfect timing! I've been waiting to kill him sooner or later!"Alexander's killing intent surged, and his battle spirit ignited.Crimson Wyrm Master was destined t
As soon as Alexander asked the question, a heavy silence fell over the chamber. The three Guardians exchanged uneasy glances, but no one uttered a word."Never mind if you don't want to say anything, I'm just curious," said Alexander, sitting down cross-legged and closing his eyes to heal his wounds
"As you wish!"Crimson Wyrm Master channeled a furious surge of power into his spear, standing firm as he built up his momentum. Having fought to this point, he knew he had to unleash his most devastating attack."Here it comes!"All eyes were locked on the impending clash, each person holding their
"You fool! Don't think you'll be the last one laughing!"The Second and Third Guardians charged forward, joining forces to deflect Crimson Wyrm's relentless assault. Even with their combined strength, they could barely withstand a few moves."Do you really think we're without reinforcements?" roared
"Heh. I wouldn't dare accept your gift!" Maxwell scoffed, his voice steady despite the looming battle. Politeness had no place in this confrontation."Oh, but I'm sure you'll appreciate it," sneered Crimson Wyrm Master, his eyes gleaming with malice as he pointed at Darko, who lay crumpled on the gr
