Twenty minutes later, Queenie came out of the bathroom. She changed into a tracksuit, and her hair was tied in a ponytail. Gorgeous as ever. "I bet you're hungry, Nox. Let's go on a food hunt."

Nox was hungry, so he nodded. They got into a taxi, and Queenie took Nox on a hunt for good food. They came to a restaurant called Bluewhale. It was one of its kind in Riverton and was only open for members. Most people could never get the chance to dine here.

Queenie got themselves an expensive parlor and ordered all her favorite foods. In her words, food could cure any bad mood, so she wanted to have a feast.

The feast was served a moment later, and Queenie dug in. The meal went on for an hour, and Queenie rubbed her belly in contentment. "A full belly. Did you have your fill, Nono?"

"Yeah," Nox said.

"Let's go home."

"Sure."

"Waiter, give us the bill."

A waitress came with a bill. "Hi, your total comes up to 1200 dollars."

Queenie wasn't fazed by the total. She took out a gold card a

    Queenie heaved a long sigh. "Great. Thank you." Just like that, she glossed over the matter, but she had to leave her Mini at the restaurant.When she and Nox came out, she heard the waitresses talking about them. "They don't look poor. Why'd they even leave their car with us over a bill?""It's a big world out there."The comments hurt Queenie's pride.Night was falling quickly, and the winds of the fall season were chilly. Queenie was walking ahead while Nox followed her. Queenie only had her bag, phone, whatever stuff she had on her, and the items in Pearl Residence. Nox had not a cent to him.It was a silent journey back home. And a long one, too. It took them about forty minutes to return, and the first thing Queenie did was scour the whole place for cash she used to throw around.Even after all her searching, she only found about 450 dollars. Queenie stared at the paltry sum of cash and plopped onto the ground. "Oh no. We don't even have enough money to get the car back."

    Alexander was on the other end of the line. He quickly said, "Milord.""I require some money tomorrow, Alex. Send it to Pearl Residence."Without thinking, Alexander said, "Of course, milord. Do you need my assistance with anything else?""Yes. A small favor. I need you to find out the current head of Sanders Holdings and everything related to the company. As fast as you can, if I may add," said Nox."Of course, milord. I will send my men right away.""Good. That is all. Good night." Nox hung up, and he looked at the second floor. Queenie's room was still lit, and he smiled.…The next morning, Nox was already standing at the entrance of Pearl Residence, waiting for Alexander.And then, a big motorcade came up to him. The car in the lead was a Rolls-Royce Phantom. Behind it was not one, not two, but four bizarre armored vehicles.A frown furrowed Nox's brows. "What in the nine hells is this?"The Rolls-Royce came to a stop, and Alexander hurried out of the car. He trotted up

    Alexander chuckled. "For you, milord, I can give up anything. Even my family's wealth.""Alright, I don't need any brown-nosing right now." Nox didn't decline the offer further. "I'll take this card then."Alexander watched him take the card, and he grinned.Nox tucked the card away. "And is there any progress on the intel gathering regarding Sanders Holdings?"Quickly, Alexander answered, "Yes. Their current head of family and operations is one Hogs Sanders. Sanders Holdings has its main business in pharmaceutical manufacturing, but with the market's decline in recent years, it is now facing a bankruptcy crisis."Nox rubbed his chin. "I see. Alex, will it be a big ask for you to purchase that company?"Alexander answered, "You severely underestimate me, milord. Should I desire it, I can purchase a dozen companies of that scale in a day."Nox rolled his eyes again."However, milord, I must ask. Why do you take interest in a dwindling company?" Alexander's business sense was kic

    She changed into a fresh set of clothes and went downstairs. Nox was playing with Blackshark, but Queenie said, "Nono, I need you to come with me. I have something to ask."Nox approached her. Queenie took the Black Card out of her pocket and held it up with the envelope. "What is this?"Nox looked at the Black Card. "Some old fogey came this morning and said this was for you. There's some money in that account, and you can use it. I tucked it under your door while you were asleep.""Some old guy gave me money?" Queenie was surprised by the news. "What kind of old guy? What does he look like?" she quickly asked.Nox made up a story on the spot. Queenie was at a loss for words. She thought, 'First thing in the morning, and someone gave me a black card? There's money in the account? What kind of joke is this?'"Where's the old guy?" Queenie asked again."Left a while ago," answered Nox.Queenie stared at the card again, this time with more questions. Still, she was a pragmatic wom

    Queenie quickly said, "Hey, manager. I'll pay for the bill on my tab yesterday. Really sorry for what happened."The manager kindly smiled. "Don't worry about it." He asked a waiter to bring the POS terminal and the receipt.Since Queenie only had cash, she asked, "Can I pay with cash?"The manager paused for a moment. He said, "Sorry, it's either a card or online payment here."Things got awkward again for Queenie, but Nox stood ahead. "Give him the card, then."'Card? What card?' Queenie asked in her mind.The manager said, "The mister is right. Cards will be the best form of payment here." He showed Queenie the POS terminal.Queenie, however, did not look happy at all. She dragged Nox aside. "Are you stupid, Nono? My cards are all frozen. I don't have any card I can use."Nox smiled. "Yes, you do. You just got one this morning.""What, you mean the black card that old guy gave me?""That's the one."Queenie was speechless. She thought Nox had gone cuckoo. 'There's no way

    "We apologize for our ignorance, VIPs. Please, take a rest in the VIP zone. We will make it up to you and right our wrongs."'Make it up to us?' Queenie was once again shocked. She asked, "What's going on? Why the sudden compensation?"She wanted answers, but Nox smiled. "We should take the offer, then. Let's go to the VIP zone."The manager quickly bowed. "Follow me, VIPs." He led the two of them to the most lavish rest area in the restaurant, and then he told the waiter to serve them two cups of their best coffee, followed by a pile of fruits and snacks.And he retreated like a servant. Queenie was still flabbergasted by the sudden change. "Okay, what happened here, Nono? The manager's acting real weird."Nox smiled, but he said nothing. A while later, the manager came back, but this time, he was holding a beautiful gift box and Queenie's car keys."My esteemed lady, I apologize for our unacceptable behavior. We even took your car as collateral. To make up for that, we have dec

    Even the waiters wondered what was going on."Sir, why did we waive their bill? Not even the highest VIPs could get that privilege. This has never happened since our restaurant's inception. And you even gave her the shop's custom-made gift."The manager said, "Ah, what do you know? Those two are going to bring us a lot of money.""Huh? Did you just say…" The waiters were once again dumbfounded."Just you wait. Our restaurant is going to be madly popular from now on. We just received a Black Card owner in our eatery. If everyone finds out, business is going to boom. That little event alone is worth millions in marketing. Oh yeah, I can see the money already."The manager was muttering to himself like a madman. The waiters had no idea what a Black Card meant, nor did they know who the bigshots were.…Queenie was still in a daze. She was in her car, staring at the golden whale and the card in confusion. Nox was beside her, looking relaxed.A long while later, Queenie shook her he

    Nox hurried upstairs. "What's wrong?"Queenie was seated before her laptop, her eyes wide. The Black Card was sitting before her. It took her a long moment before she pointed at the screen. "Nono, y-you have to see this."Nox approached her and scanned the screen. It was showing the Black Card's introduction."I-It's a Black Card, the king of cards. Owners of this card get all the VIP privileges wherever they go. Only top government officials, bluebloods, or big capitalists can own one. No one else can apply for one of these. And it has unlimited credit!"Queenie fell into stunned silence. She had never seen a Black Card but had heard stories of it. Now, she was holding the very same legendary card, and she was dazed.Nox didn't think Queenie would find out so soon. He scratched his nose and feigned surprise. "I see.""Don't give me that! You've probably never seen this card, so I'll make it simple. If you have this card, you'll be treated like royalty wherever you go. And it has

    "Tell them to eat shit, guys! We're taking this for ourselves, and if they pull anything funny, we're taking them out!" one of the swordsmen's leaders shouted, and his comrades agreed."Dammit, the bastards. We're going in as well! We got orders from the Shadow Division. If they attack us, they're traitors!" The sects' cultivators gnashed their teeth. The soldiers were stunned. Their people were fighting among themselves even when the mission hadn't begun.It was ridiculous to fight over who would get the credit. Then, someone inside the governor's estate came out with their hands held high. The swordsmen and cultivators were about to move, but a general said, "Hold it! I'm the commanding officer here! I'll talk to him!"He strode ahead. At the same time, hundreds of guns were trained on the alleged remnant of the Olympians. The general looked at the man and asked solemnly, "You don't look like an Olympian. Are you a Faeast citizen?"The man nodded. The general asked, "The Mousses?

    At the same time, the captain of the squad that arrived first on the scene asked his chief, "Chief, the governor's still in there. Should we—"The general shot him with a glare. "Governor? He is no longer a Faeastian governor, and we don't negotiate with foreign enemies. He has a duty to protect his nation and sacrifice for it!"The captain nodded. Faeast's rise to power could not be stopped, especially now. The remnants thought they could threaten Faeast just because they got one hostage. It was a joke. Then, the swordsmen came on their flying swords. The soldiers couldn't believe what they were seeing."I can sense them. They're inside, and they only have one hostage. Probably the governor." The swordsmen came down and greeted the generals. The generals greeted back."We're counting on you."The swordsmen were about to go inside, but then they sensed more aura coming in. "More? No, they're Faeast's cultivators. Finally revealing themselves?" The swordsmen looked around, their w

    "I'll mobilize the Shadow Division. We are to take them down," said Keith. They had some Magic Mountain swordsmen nearby. These people demanded to come to Imperia to fight, and now they could be used for this operation.The swordsmen were drinking away at a barbecue shop and complaining about the situation when the news hit them. "The guys who fought in Imperia got a lecture from the founder and got more power from that, but we get nothing at all?"They were a little frustrated, and then through the news, they saw news about the attack on the governor's estate. Just when they were wondering if it might be the work of the Olympians' remnants, Keith's call came."I need you to take out the bastards at the governor's estate. Take no prisoners! If you can save the governor, save him. If you can't, too bad. But if they have taken any civilian hostage, don't act hastily."The swordsmen were excited. "Don't worry about it, kid. Unless they have a Pinnacle Legend Realm with them, they're n

    That was blasphemy. They were both Saints, and he was more powerful than Voltaic, yet he was insulted. "You bastard! Don't look down on me! I'm the leader of the Sect Alliance! I'll make you pay!"Tremeus had never been insulted before. He was one of the best cultivators in the world, after all. Flames erupted from his soul, and they crashed into Voltaic. Towering waves flew high into the air. The battle between a saintly swordsman and a powerhouse of the path of the martial was underway."Tremeus is putting in his all. If Voltaic hadn't won in his earlier fight, he might be defeated, but he did win, and his understanding of swordsmanship deepened. His aura's never been stronger. He might not be able to defeat Tremeus, but at least he won't fall." Dominic narrowed his eyes.Still, the outcome of this situation depended on Nox. If Nox could come out victorious, then all would be fine. If he couldn't, then not even killing Tremeus could change anything. Nox had cast all Eight Saintly

    Voltaic arrived at a critical junction. Dominic suspected that he would be the powerhouse arranged for this plan. Voltaic stopped a distance away. He looked confused, and then he shouted telepathically, "Get out here, you bastard! Damn you, Aphrodite! You lured me out so you could attack Faeast? That's my homeland, you witch!"Dominic wasn't expecting this at all. "Wait, so there's someone else?" He was musing over the matter when he sensed another person's aura in the seas. "He's in the sea!" Dominic unsheathed his weapon. At the same time, Voltaic's divine sense noticed the person as well.He leaped into the seas, and then a hundred-yard ravine split open the waters a moment later. Voltaic's sword energy created a vacuum on the surface of the sea. Before him was a warrior in black, holding up the sword energy with his hand."Tremeus Lifenstein, leader of the Sect Alliance. He's a Saint too, but only his soul is intact. His life must be coming to an end, so he couldn't wait any l

    "Yeah, this one's not as powerful as the ones in his tribulation, but it's no pushover either. Endure it, and she lives. Fail, and both of you die." Dominic looked at Aphrodite. "Look at her. She's smiling."Aphrodite had gotten over herself. She'd have stopped Nox if he hadn't tried to take the backlash, but now that he'd gotten himself into it, it was too late to do anything. When she'd freed herself from her chains, Aphrodite could finally be herself again.This was what she'd been waiting for. No matter the outcome, Nox had fought with her. Another lightning bolt fell out of the skies, and Nox took it head on. Only two bolts had fallen thus far, but Nox was starting to feel his strength fail.It was almost as if there was something watching from behind the vortex. It could feel Nox's strength fail, and it quickly dropped another lightning bolt."Eight Saintly Techniques!" Nox knew his body alone couldn't stop the bolts, so he quickly used his spells. However, that enraged the v

    Nox dispeled the death energy and pulled Aphrodite back from the abyss."Nox!""Don't say anything. Death is easy, but living on isn't. You still owe the nation, and before you clear your debt, you are not allowed to die. Eight Saintly Techniques, Holy Revival!"That was Holy Revival. Once it became a Saintly technique, it could change fate itself. If Nox could handle the backlash, Aphrodite could survive.Dominic had been watching nearby, and he quickly flew into the Dao. "So he's made his move."Nox could save Aphrodite, but she'd run out of her lifespan. Not even he could tether that kind of person to life. It was time for the Master of Swords to make his move. "If you can handle the backlash for her, I'll use my power to prolong her life, Nox!" said Dominic telepathically.Nox glared at him. He knew the old man would save Aphrodite. That was why he came along. Aphrodite couldn't die. It would be a great loss for Faeast."Be careful, Nox. If you fail, you'll die too!" Domini

    Nox nodded. "That battle was dangerous. I only got out alive through sheer luck, but to be honest, the traps after that were mediocre. I didn't even feel anything in the last few ones."After the Heaven's Cage trap, the threats from the northern battlefront, Mount Prison, and Sect Alliance did nothing for him. Aphrodite answered, "Because I relented. I hurt you and myself at the same time. Every time I tried to hit you where it hurt, I hurt myself too, so every trap after that had flaws in them. I wanted to kill you, but it only made you grow."Aphrodite smiled. She was just a maiden in love when she was dating Nox. Like regular couples, they'd banter and play games together, but those were days she couldn't go back to. Then, Aphrodite trembled, as if she could sense something. With a twisted face, she snarled, "Kill me. I want to die by your hands."It would be an honor to die at Nox's hands. She thought of herself as a warrior, and it was an honor to die in battle. She didn't want

    Aphrodite almost felt like she'd found her old self back. It almost felt like she was his tactician again, and she was unstoppable back then. She could have anything she wanted. She thought she had everything under control. Everyone could be controlled, because she was smart enough to do that.And then reality gave her a big, fat slap. Without Nox, she could do nothing. "I've not done a lot of right things in my life, Nox. My grandpa's gone to the path of the martial. He's fully turned his back on Faeast," said Aphrodite. Nox's next enemy would be the path of the martial."They'll come sooner or later anyway." Nox nodded."One more thing. Amass all the power you can. Faeast hasn't survived this long all by itself. Where you stand now, you know the sacrifices of a group of people cannot fight the flow of destiny," said Aphrodite."Yes, it's thanks to the path of the ancient divine. It began in Faeast, and they wouldn't let the path of the martial do anything stupid," said Nox. The p
