A shadowy figure dashed through the streets, glancing back in panic.It was Black Maple Master, wounded by Alexander's hand, desperately fleeing the Iversen family's grasp.His fighting skills were average at best, but when it came to running for his life, he was second to none."Damn!" He cursed, b
Aboard the sub, Black Maple Master gestured with a wave and flashed a triumphant grin, his lips moving silently.Alexander caught the message in his silent mouthing. 'Farewell, until next time.'The nerve of that washed-up mongrel, taunting him—it was enough to boil his blood!Alexander lifted his s
"I'm sorry, Dad. I never meant to hurt you." Rhett stood humbly before the stone chamber, tears tracing lines down his cheeks, his voice heavy with regret.In pursuit of his dreams, he had cast aside the love of a father and son. He finally saw the folly of his ways."I don't blame you…but we've rea
Alexander stepped inside his home."Alexander, you're finally back," Amber rushed to meet him, her face a tangle of worry. She had skipped the office, knowing he was returning."I'm alright, my arm's all healed up. No need to fret," he reassured her, scooping her into his arms and settling on the co
Dawn broke, and Alexander was up with the sun, whipping up breakfast for his family as was his routine. "Breakfast Is ready! Fresh steak on the menu today!"His call was met with the sound of doors opening and the bustle of morning routines.Olivia, ever the enthusiastic one, was already at the tabl
"Mister Kane, there's someone at the front demanding to see you," a security guard burst in, out of breath with the urgency of his message.Alexander had barely settled into his office when the disturbance kicked up."Have Brody deal with it. I don't need to be bothered with such petty issues.""But
"Thoth, is this the Stewart family's way of asking for help?" Alexander questioned, his tone laced with disbelief.He had followed the monarch's orders, setting aside his personal matters to come there and wait. However, the other's arrogance was too much to bear, and a few minutes of waiting had es
"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
Early in the next morning, Maxwell's group of 40—the weakest among them a Lord of War—gathered quietly by the lake at the back of a mountain, somewhere in Shielded Valley. They stood in silence, their expressions grave.Though many had never ventured to Battleforge Summit, they had all heard of its
"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
