"Frederick..."

Jasmine couldn't help but admire Frederick's boldness, and declared firmly, "Alright! Don't worry. I won't sleep until everything's done. I guarantee that all illegal structures will be leveled within a day!"

Frederick wasted no time. He made two phone calls.

First, to Matthew, the mayor of Mirage City.

"Matthew, I've heard there are some illegal buildings in Mirage City under the names of your officials. I believe you're unaware of this, so I hope there won't be any official interference while I demolish these illegal structures."

Matthew was taken aback, but assured solemnly, "Lord Hades, I honestly didn't know about this. If such a situation exists, I'll personally deal with any official who dares interfere with your work."

With this assurance, Frederick then called Willa.

"Hey, Captain Zephyr, long time no see! You must have heard I recently got promoted, and I’m handling a pedestrian street construction project. There might be some troublemakers causing a ru

    The secretary trembled. "Ms. York, should I talk to him again?""No need. I have plenty of ways to handle him!" Jennifer smiled meaningfully.Frederick was just a man. As a woman, it would be easy to grasp his weakness and manipulate him.-Meanwhile, the demolition of illegal buildings for the Sleepless City project outside Mirage City had caused a stir.When land prices in Mirage City skyrocketed, many non-locals took advantage of the situation. They swooped in to build and profit by renting to tourists and students.One of the people most furious by the demolition was the underground king of Azure City, Dustin Ziegler.Over a third of the demolished buildings belonged to him. He had worked tirelessly to secure deals and spent a fortune on construction, only to see Aerowind Enterprise swoop in and swiftly demolish his properties."Frederick? Aerowind Enterprise? What the hell are those?" Dustin seethed with anger inside his mansion. He tightened his grip on the waist of a b

    "Sir, do you know what ordinary folks fear the most? Bad luck!" his trusted confidant said with a grin. "We just need to hire a shaman to turn Sleepless City’s land into an ominous place. Everyone will steer clear of it. That way, even if Sleepless City is completed, it will be a ghost town!"Dustin's eyes lit up. "Also, once this news spreads, it will create a chain reaction. The businesses, sponsors, and banks planning to move into Sleepless City will scatter. Aerowind Enterprise will be bankrupt, and creditors will hunt Fredrick down wherever he goes. By then, we won't even need to lift a finger. He'll be a dead dog on the streets!" his confidant went on. Dustin suddenly drew a sharp breath, and slumped to the ground. His men tactfully pretended not to notice."Good! I leave this matter to you. Bring him down, and I won't forget your efforts. You'll be promoted three ranks from whatever position you hold now!"After a few seconds, Dustin regained his composure. He took a drag

    The next second, Eira slipped and fell flat on her face, getting herself dirty! Frederick had dodged out of the way."What the?" Eira clutched her nose, furious. "Are you even a man? I’m starting to think there's something wrong with you!"Frederick smiled indifferently. "I told you, I’m not interested. I’ll have to get serious if you don't leave now, miss."Eira's expression twisted with rage. "I don't care! If I can’t get you to drop your pants, Ms. York won’t pay me a single cent!"With that, she stripped off her coat, leaving only her underwear. She confidently displayed her charms, sure no man could resist her allure—unless he was a courtier!But as soon as she took a step forward, Frederick swiftly threw her over his shoulder. Then, he tossed her out the villa door.Bang!Frederick shut and locked the door, listening calmly to her curses from outside."Jennifer, this is too much! Why did you send someone like her to test me?" Frederick said coldly. "I’m not that desperate

    Thud, thud, thud!The sound of splashing and clattering came from the bathroom, and it continued for over an hour.“You jerk!” Jennifer emerged from the bathroom, wrapped in a towel. Her hair was wet, her cheeks flushed, and there were red marks on her skin. Her legs were so weak, she could barely walk.Behind her, Frederick looked energized and proud. He laughed and said, “Now we’re even, Ms. York!”“Even? You owe me now!” Jennifer snapped, collapsing onto her bed without looking back. “Get out of my room!”Frederick chuckled. “Ms. York, wasn't it you who pulled me in here? You make it sound like I forced you. Just because you’re my boss, doesn’t mean you can twist things in your favor!”Jennifer retorted, “I brought you in just to shave your beard! I didn’t ask for anything else! You took advantage of me and still act self-righteous!”As they argued, Frederick’s phone rang. It was Jasmine.“Frederick, there’s trouble at the Sleepless City project!”Frederick paused. “Is

    “My name is Connor Zeller. I'm sure you've heard of Master Aiden Zeller, the great ethereal shaman, right? I'm his successor! How dare you call me a fraud? Aren’t you afraid of divine retribution?” Connor responded with a smile, unfazed.“Besides, the truth is clear to everyone here. Even if you beat me up, the people have already seen the facts!”The crowd seized the moment, and began shouting. “What’s this? Is the Sleepless City crew trying to use force to hide the truth?”“A cover-up? I’ll record this and post it online! Let everyone see what’s happening!”“Heartless capitalists, building an entertainment complex on cursed land—they're playing with our lives! We should all boycott it!”Many of Dustin’s people were among the crowd, stirring things up. They quickly riled everyone up, and the crowd became angry. The scene soon became a mess.Jasmine didn't realize her good intentions would backfire this way, and she urgently ordered the security team to stand down. This only

    "Law enforcement can handle living issues, but can't deal with mystic matters," Frederick said, shaking his head.He scanned the construction site, frowning slightly."Strange… How did the mysticism flow here suddenly turn so disastrous?"The intense negative energy was comparable to a hospital morgue, as if hundreds of bodies were buried here.After a few seconds, Frederick seemed to realize something and smiled eerily. "You sneaky shaman. What tricks did you play on this land?"Connor broke into a sly grin, and immediately denied, "What's this? Can't win the argument, so you're resorting to baseless accusations now?"Frederick leveled Connor with a steady gaze. "A shaman doesn't just read the mysticism flow of a place. They can also manipulate it. You've planted something dirty here, which caused the sudden surge in negative energy."Scientifically speaking, mysticism was about magnetic fields. Everything had a spirit. A shaman could harness and balance natural forces, using t

    “What’s the Nine Evil's Mansion?” Jasmine asked, curious about Jason’s alarmed expression.Jason stammered, “In mysticism arts, it’s a highly ominous sign!”“The Nine Evil's Mansion is formed by taking nine malevolent individuals and executing them by stabbing them until they die. Then, their flesh would be pieced together with bone nails."After that, their body would be encased in concrete and sealed with mercury. They would then be buried at a specific place where the mountain’s shadow meets the water’s reflection on a full moon night. "This ritual traps their spirits, forcing them to endure endless torment. It also creates intense resentment and forms the Nine Evil's Mansion.”He continued, visibly shaken, “Even those with the strongest fates dare not tamper with it. The curse can lead to untimely death, misfortune for three generations, and calamities for ten generations.”As Jason described it, the fear in his voice sent chills down Jasmine’s spine. The crowd stepped back,

    "Master Trent, what's wrong?" Jasmine was stunned by the scene in front of her.Jason was a mess, and looked crazed. He flailed his arms, and shouted, "The Nine Evil's Mansion is a hellish mysticism arrangement that no one should mess with! Run, or we'll all die here!"With that, he dashed out like a madman.The onlookers, who had been counting on him, were shocked and panicked."We're doomed! This place is way too dangerous!""If even a shaman master was terrified, what chance do we have?""We must halt all construction immediately! We need to rebuild the tall buildings that Aerowind Enterprise demolished earlier. Those structures were actually suppressing the spirits beneath the ground!" Connor said quickly. "By leveling them, they've unleashed Pandora's box! They’ve freed all the demons and ghosts below!"Hearing his explanation, the already terrified crowd took his words as gospel."Listen to Master Zeller! He's even more skilled than Master Trent!""Yeah!

    Heston was still scoffing when he received a call from Giovanni.He was taken aback, and he nervously glanced at Frederick.

They now aimed to dismantle the entire Radicals faction. Though the Radicals had already compromised in the Woody affair, they were taken aback by the Conservatives' greed and refused to back down any further.A fierce conflict broke out between the two sides, quickly escalating into open warfare. The entire Imperial Capital was placed under lockdown, with martial law in effect. Gunfire and smoke filled the air as both sides clashed, and the violence soon spread across Drakonia. Armies from all regions were mobilized, and a war was about to erupt. At this critical moment, the First Elder woke up.Years ago, after deposing the Dark Monarch of

    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
