"Fire! Go ahead if you dare! Haha! Let's see if the Grim Reaper will take you!" Blade shouted hysterically, his features twisted.

Frederick took the revolver calmly. "The Grim Reaper? He wouldn't dare let me die."

Because Frederick was Hades, the Dark Monarch—king and ruler of the underworld!

In Drakonian mythology, the Dark Monarch controlled the cycle of life and death across six realms. Even the Grim Repear was merely his servant.

Frederick chuckled, then raised the revolver to his temple, and…pulled the trigger!

Everyone's hearts leaped to their throats.

After a 0.1-second pause, a tsunami-like wave of gasps swept through the room.

No gunshot!

Once again, nothing happened. With just a one-sixth chance of survival, Frederick actually gambled correctly!

As Blade stood there dumbfounded, Frederick lifted the gun again. He spun the chamber and placed it against his chin before pulling the trigger.

Once again, nothing happened.

Pandemonium erupted.

    What a shock!Everyone couldn't believe their eyes—Blade had actually wet himself!The members of the Bloodfang Order were dumbfounded, and their mouths fell open.Blade was drenched in cold sweat, unable to pull the trigger. He was afraid of dying!"Hahaha!"In an instant, a hearty, mocking laughter filled the entire scene. It was Frederick, laughing uproariously.Everyone was stunned. How could he dare to openly ridicule Blade in front of everyone? Blade was a ruthless killer! Did Frederick not care about living anymore? Even though Blade had been scared enough to wet himself, no one dared to be so reckless!"Do you know why you can't pull the trigger?"After he was done laughing, Frederick said, "Because you've grown old! Your ambition is gone. When you were young, you relied on courage to roam the world. You even dared to bet your life with a revolver. That's why you were victorious time and again! But now, you're just a plucked chicken! You're a coward that's worse tha

    "Wait! You've got the wrong person!" Willa rushed forward, realizing the deceased was just an ordinary civilian. He had nothing to do with the Bloodfang Order!"Captain Zephyr, what should we do? Should we still storm Prospera Corporation?" Her subordinates looked anxious. To take on the Bloodfang Order, they had even borrowed heavy firepower. But the closer they got, the more intimidated they felt by the ominous aura.Willa hesitated. "There are hundreds of hostages inside. What if we harm more innocent people when we attack?"More importantly, she lacked confidence in defeating Blade.Just as everyone was on edge, a powerful, resolute figure stepped out."Someone's coming out! Who is it?" Hearts skipped a beat, and guns were instinctively drawn.But Willa's eyes widened in disbelief. "Frederick!"Covered in blood but with a calm demeanor, Frederick walked out casually with his hands behind his back.Willa's heart sank at this state. "What… What happened? Did the Bloodfa

    "It's up to you whether you believe it or not. Now, can you all please leave?" Frederick said calmly.His words were like adding fuel to the fire. The law enforcement team erupted like a volcano, their anger boiling over."So arrogant!""He's clearly just scavenging, and yet talks as if he's righteous! How shameless!""If you've got guts, come and fight us one-on-one!"They were so furious, they wanted to pin Frederick down and beat him senseless.However, Willa dropped a bombshell. "Everyone, retreat."Everyone froze, stunned into silence. "Captain Zephyr, did we hear you correctly?"Within the law enforcement team, Willa was known for her short temper. Normally, Frederick's provocative words should have triggered her wrath instantly. Strangely, she remained unusually calm.This was highly unusual!She continued impassively, "Because you can't beat him.""Captain Zephyr, are you kidding? We're not just anyone! As members of the city's law enforcement, we're either Krav Maga

    Upon hearing those words, Jennifer instinctively clenched her teeth."Haven't we already agreed on this? Hasn't it all been approved?"The Xavier-led board had secretly invested substantial funds in real estate to ally with the Gallagher family, keeping her in the dark. Now, with engineering issues arising, it was bound to involve officials from the Public Works Department. But Jennifer had already spent three million to secure the department's approval, so why the sudden change?"Haha! Were you not aware, Ms. York? Just a couple of days ago, the head of the Public Works Department was caught for corruption. The new boss is even more ambitious!" Several men smirked, their expressions seemingly friendly."We're just running errands here. Most of the benefits go to the new guy in charge."So, the new boss... No wonder they were insatiable!Helplessly, Jennifer asked, "Gentlemen, how much?"The men exchanged glances, and one of them smiled. "Ms. York, don't misunderstand. We're

    Jennifer felt her heart ache for George. She had tried several times to help him become a permanent employee with a raise, only to be politely refused each time. George was a principled man. Once an agreement was made, he stuck to it. All he wanted was a stable job at Prospera Corporation."You bastard!" One of the men ignored Jennifer and slapped George across the face, sending him sprawling to the ground. Blood immediately trickled from his mouth.Jennifer's anger flared instantly. "Gentlemen, this is a workplace! How can you resort to violence?""Ms. York, don't you know the saying that a dog's behavior depends on its owner? Your dog bit us, so it's your responsibility as the owner!" The men sneered sinisterly. "We had a good impression of you before. But now, with this incident, it's hard to trust Prospera Corporation. We'll report this matter truthfully to the new chief!"Jennifer hurriedly interjected, "Please calm down, gentlemen! I spoke out of turn and said some harsh wo

    "No, you can't! My granddaughter gave me that!" George was always honest and straightforward, and he could no longer contain himself. His eyes turned bloodshot in an instant as he rose to snatch it back. With only his granddaughter left as family, he cherished everything she gave him like a precious treasure. How could he bear to have it forcibly taken away?The men were startled. "What's this? You want to start a fight? Security! Call security!""Jennifer, what kind of people are you hiring? Your dogs are biting us! Stop him!" Their faces contorted with rage.Jennifer's anger was evident. "Gentlemen, you've gone too far!"They were relentless. "Jennifer, do you want your permits or not? Believe us, with one word from our new chief, Prospera Corporation won't get anything done in Mirage!""Security!" Jennifer's fists clenched tightly in frustration.The security guards rushed forward and restrained George.Jennifer felt ashamed. "George, I'm sorry. I…""It's alright, Ms. Y

    On the first floor of Prospera Corporation, Jennifer bid farewell to the Public Works Department representatives."Ms. York, apart from the unpleasantness earlier, we're quite satisfied with your company," one of them said with a smirk, twirling the emerald cross in his hand.To Jennifer, their hideous grins were uglier than devils from hell. They were nothing but robbers pretending to be gentlemen, which made her sick to her stomach. Forcing herself to smile, she said, "I'm counting on you, then.""Won't be a problem at all!"Just as they finished speaking, the entire building plunged into darkness."A power outage? How is that possible?""Did someone trip the circuit breaker? Quick, check the control room!"Panic spread throughout the company. Jennifer raised her voice to calm them. "Everyone, stay calm. It's just a minor glitch. We'll resolve it soon."However, screams suddenly erupted from the group."Who is it?""Someone slapped me! Who was that bastard?! I'll kill h

    The men were furious, and they were ready to criticize Jennifer harshly.Suddenly, a phone call came in. They all looked at it, their hearts tightening instantly. "Is that...a call from the new chief?"They hastily picked up the phone."Mr. Pearson! Yes, we're currently at Prospera Corporation."A few seconds later, they put down their phones, smiling brightly."Ms. York, let's set this matter aside for now. Our new chief, Mr. Pearson, wishes to meet you. He's arranged a dinner at the Essence Hotel. Would you honor us with your presence?"Jennifer was taken aback. "Why does the new chief want to see me?""We're not sure about that. But we've heard Mr. Pearson has a keen eye for beautiful women, so you should seize this opportunity!"Their words hinted at something deeper.Jennifer raised her eyebrows, and instinctively wanted to resist. Then, she thought about it. Her fate was now in the hands of this new chief. Reluctantly, she said, "Fine. I'll go."After all, she would

    Senspiras, located in the southeast of Drakonia, was also a neighboring country of Drakonia. It also has the largest population of overseas Drakonians. Many of the wealthy families in Senspiras migrated from Drakonia within the past century or two. The current richest man in Senspiras was one such example."Is Mr. Stone your father?" Frederick raised an eyebrow and asked."Looks like you've got some sense! Name your price!" Heston smirked, and pulled out a checkbook.Frederick's expression darkened."Your dad's assets are not even enough to wipe my shoes. Who do you think you are, pretending to be a big shot? Get lost!"Frederick quickly realized that Heston was just a spoiled brat who would throw money around bullying people. Since he wasn't much of a real threat, Frederick wasn't bothered by dealing with him. Upon hearing Frederick's words, Heston was stunned. "Are you out of your mind? My dad is the richest man in Senspiras! How dare you belittle him?" “So what? Your enti

    Sylvia had so many questions. She wanted to know what Frederick had been doing to provoke such dangerous enemies. She wanted to know if Frederick had really killed a hundred people. She wanted to understand how her son had gained such abilities. And most of all, she wondered if Frederick had been living this kind of disturbing life all these years."Mom, we'll talk about it when we get home," Frederick said, gently lifting Sylvia and leaving the company.On the way, Frederick lightly tapped on Sylvia's head, and she quickly fell unconscious. He had used a special method to erase part of her memory.When they arrived home, Sylvia slowly woke up."Fred! Why are you suddenly home?" Sylvia exclaimed in surprise when she saw Frederick."I'm about to go on a long trip, so I came to visit. Why are you sleeping on the couch instead of in your room?" Frederick smiled.Sylvia sat up from the couch, feeling a bit stiff and sore."I was talking to your sister on the phone. How did I

    "Yes, it was me. If no one managed to escape, the entire Steinfields family—except for children under sixteen and elders over seventy—should be dead by now," Frederick said with a smirk.If he didn't deter the Steinfields with a show of force, others might try the same methods against him in the future.Hearing this, Kaizer's face went blank and terror filled his eyes. At that moment, Frederick's phone rang. It was Melanie calling. Frederick answered, and put the call on speaker. "How did it go? Tell me, so Kaizer here can hear," Frederick said."There were a hundred and seventy-three Steinfields. Fifty-two were children and elders. The remaining hundred have all been executed!" Melanie reported. Kaizer spat out a mouthful of blood in shock. "No way! We're the Steinfields! The Steinfields of Imperial Capital! How could this happen?"In a panic, Kaizer fumbled with his phone, trying to call his family. However, every call he made went unanswered."You'll find out for sure onc

    "Let her go!"A sharp voice rang out.Kaizer instinctively turned around, and he was stunned by Nella's beauty. He couldn't believe someone like her existed."Nella, why did you come down?" Jasmine called out, her eyes widened in panic. She had specifically told them not to come down.Nella trembled in fear. "Ms. Smith, we were worried about you!"Though she was terrified, she still stepped forward. She couldn't just stand by and watch Jasmine get assaulted."Well, well, Frederick sure is lucky with women. But now, they're all mine. Who would've thought that I'd be blessed with a feast before leaving Drakonia!" Kaizer was practically drooling.He let go of Jasmine, and rushed toward Nella eagerly. Nella backed away step by step, but soon found herself cornered."Haha, come to me!" Kaizer spread his arms wide, lunging toward Nella.Just as he was about to grab her, a thunderous crash shook the room. The outer wall of the building crumbled down.Frederick had burst through it a

    Meanwhile, Frederick had just gotten off the plane. As soon as he turned on his phone, he saw a long list of missed calls from Selene.He immediately felt uneasy. Selene would never call him so many times unless something urgent had happened.He was about to call her back when his phone rang again.Frederick answered Selene's call quickly, but before he could ask anything, Selene's tearful voice came through."Fred, Mom's been kidnapped!"Frederick's face darkened instantly, and his killing aura surged."Alright. Don't worry, Mom will be fine."With that, Frederick hung up the phone; he then immediately called Melanie, who was still in the Imperial Capital, lazily lounging in bed."Do you have any intelligence on the Steinfields in the Imperial Capital?" Frederick asked through gritted teeth.He didn't need much thought to figure out who was behind this. There was hardly anyone left in Mirage City bold enough to cross him, except for Kaizer. And now, Sylvia had been kidnapped

    When the elevator doors opened, Jasmine stepped out into the lobby.Kaizer's eyes lit up as he eyed her from head to toe. Though he had seen pictures of her before, she was more of an eye candy in person. Kaizer, holding his rifle, approached her. "Ms. Smith, you certainly kept me waiting!""What do you want with me?" Jasmine asked coldly. She knew that showing fear or vulnerability would only embolden these lawless men."Ms. Smith, why don't you take a guess?" Kaizer reached for Jasmine and lifted her chin with the barrel of his gun, forcing her to look at him.Jasmine met his gaze without a hint of fear."Is it money you want? The company has ten million in cash reserves. You can take it, and I guarantee I won't call the police. We can pretend nothing ever happened as long as no one is hurt. As for the funds in the company’s accounts, you wouldn’t be able to take it even if I transfer the money to you with today’s financial systems," Jasmine spoke calmly."Ms. Smith, you're q

    Bang!With a loud crash, the door was violently kicked open. Kaizer and his men stormed into Frederick’s place.Sylvia was startled, and she shouted, "What do you guys want?" "We're here to kidnap you!" Kaizer strode toward Sylvia. Then, he snatched away her phone and crushed it."Tie her up and take her away!" Kaizer and his men acted quickly. Selene, on the other end of the video call, was shocked by the strangers. Fortunately, she was still on alert. She quickly tried to call Frederick while shaking with fear. However, Frederick’s phone was off since he was on a flight."How’s everything going on your end?" Kaizer asked his men over the phone."We’ve rigged all four walls of Aerowind Enterprise with high-powered explosives. Once we detonate them, the whole building will turn to ashes," his subordinate reported.A smile finally appeared on Kaizer’s face. "Good, I’m heading over now." Soon, Kaizer arrived at Aerowind Enterprise with a backpack."I want to see Ms. Sm

    Upon hearing Frederick’s words, Woody stumbled. "Take him away!" one of the senior officials from the Supervision Department ordered.The respected elder of the Drakonia Royal Court, Woody, was escorted away along with the evidence and witnesses."After today, the Lamberts will cease to exist, and you're finally free." Frederick sighed in relief, and smiled at Easton.Easton looked slightly lost. He wasn’t sure what to do next with his sudden freedom. "What's wrong? Struggling to find a new purpose in life?" Frederick teased.Easton nodded, and replied, "Yeah, my ambitions have been completely worn down these three years. I feel a bit aimless.""Should I find you a job?" Frederick suggested casually."It’s best if I could work for you, Mr. Lester!" Easton’s eyes lit up with excitement."I have a pharmaceutical company under me. If you're interested, you could take the position of Chief of Biomedical Engineering," Frederick said jokingly. To his surprise, Easton was genuinely
