Chapter 96

Author: Wendell Mayhew
Hans Wagner, commonly known as Hades Hans, was a notorious local kingpin in Steinberg, overseeing a few hundred underlings.

Ruthless and vindictive, he had established numerous businesses, primarily focused on lending and entertainment venues, engaging in various shady dealings.

Despite recent efforts by Hans to change his image and engage in philanthropy, transforming into a successful businessman with several accolades, his brutal reputation persisted in Steinberg.

He was the kind of person whose name alone would send shivers down one's spine.

Offending him meant crossing paths with Hades himself!

"Kid, why aren't you talking? Scared? If you're scared, then kneel!" William taunted, his eyes filled with malice.

Fergus immediately stepped forward, shouting, "Mr. Saunders, this has nothing to do with me. I've been implicated, and I kindly ask for your leniency.

Fergus was scared. Crossing paths with Hans meant he would be in deep trouble.

William gave Fergus a disdainful look an

    With his eyes locked on Sebastian, William warned, "Weren't you all high and mighty just now? You have a death wish, don't you? Come to the deck then!"With that said, he turned to leave the cabin and headed to the deck. Whitney almost passed out upon hearing what he said. Wagner … It was THE Hans Wagner of Steinberg he was talking about! Even Mabel shivered in fear, her face already as pale as a sheet. Hans was ruthless. They were doomed for sure! No thanks to Sebastian, that idiot! "Ms. Sutton, what do we do? Mr. Wagner's heading here!" Mabel shouted as she stomped her feet in frustration, her heart overwhelmed with anxiety. Whitney was afraid of Hans too. Sweat dotted her forehead, and her lips lost their color. Now, even her hands were cold, and her legs trembled. The path to the deck was right in front of her, but it seemed especially gloomy and foreboding now. Taking a deep breath, she grabbed Mable's hand and muttered, "Don't be afraid. This land has its laws. Mr

    There was an uproar. The people on the deck all turned to look in fear at the group of men standing at the port.As the cruise ship slowly came to a halt, they finally got to see clearly what was happening at the port. The group of men who stood in a row looked strong and formidable. "They're Mr. Wagner's men …" "Oh my! Something huge's gonna happen tonight. This is the first time I'm seeing Mr. Wagner appear himself to settle things.""The poor fellows are so unlucky! They're gonna be tossed into the lake and drowned."The crowd couldn't stop talking about it. At the port, Hans got out of the Maybach at the very front of the line of cars. He had a cigar in his mouth and a thick golden chain around his neck. Even his face looked deadly, like a ferocious beast. "Mr. Wagner, the ship's docking," one of his men politely reminded him. Hans nodded and looked at the ship that was slowly coming their way. When it finally stopped completely, more than ten of his men in black suits

    Sebastian glanced at Hans and snickered. "It seems like you've recovered well. You gained weight and look way better now," he said. "You can even teach someone else a lesson, I see." "It's all thanks to you!" Hans said with an awkward smile. "You gave me a second chance at life!" Everyone on the deck was stunned at this turn of events.What just happened? Why was Hans so polite toward the young man in front of him? Besides, Hans kept calling him "Dr. Ballard". Even William himself was baffled. He'd never seen Hans treat someone else with so much reverence. This time, he was doomed for sure! Just then, Hans turned to glare at him."You son of a bitch! What did you do to offend Dr. Ballard?" "N-No! I didn't!" William begged. "It's all a misunderstanding, Mr. Wagner!" In his fear, he stumbled backward as Hans approached him and said, "A misunderstanding, you say?"Hans kicked William in the stomach, sending William crashing to the ground once more. He kicked him a few m

    "That's right! Don't just stand there as if nothing happened! You would've died if it weren't for Mr. Cobb!" Mabel said, going along with the flow. She was annoyed at him. He didn't even thank Fergus for saving his life. What a rude idiot! Chuckling, Fergus said, "It's fine. There will always be people who aren't grateful to others." Despite their words, Sebastian didn't feel like explaining himself. But then, his face darkened when he realized that Fergus had seized the chance to take credit for something that was not his doing. "You want me to thank him? Should I thank him for being a shameless fool then?" Sebastian laughed.His piercing eyes were locked on Fergus as he said coolly, "Mr. Cobb, I'm sure you know full well why Mr. Wagner left. Do you think you deserve my gratitude?""Sebastian!" Whitney snapped. She was furious at Sebastian for being so ungrateful toward his savior. "How could you say that?" she asked. "I know you don't like Fergus, but you wouldn't be aliv

    Whitney, Fergus, and Mabel stood at the entrance of Luna's Waterfront."Whitney, the people who are having dinner here are the mentors and leaders of the Steinberg Medical Conference district competition," Fergus said to Whitney.He didn't exactly get this piece of news easily from his friend. It was top secret!"For real?" Whitney exclaimed.Fergus nodded. "Yeah. My friend is one of the person-in-charge of the Steinberg Medical Conference district competition next week. He told me about it."Moreover, the upcoming downtown selection competition next week is meticulously crafted by the original team of the Crestborne Harmony Quest program. "The event will be broadcast live, promising to make waves in Steinberg! I heard them mention that if the live broadcast of the competition is well-received, subsequent matches will be nationally televised. "According to them, the goal is to transform this year's medical conference into a program akin to Crestborne Harmony Quest, generating

    After saying that, she ignored Whitney's visibly displeased expression and took Sebastian's arm. Surrounded by admiring gazes, they walked into Luna's Waterfront as if she were the center of the universe.Sebastian frowned a little when he passed by Whitney and the others, but eventually, he chose to remain silent.Whitney, Fergus, and Mabel were stunned. Their eyes widened as they stared at them walking in.They were really astonished."Damn! What's going on? Sebastian just went in like that?" Mabel exclaimed, utterly perplexed. Or rather, she was quite envious. Why Sebastian? How could such a useless and pathetic guy stroll into Luna's Waterfront? Why did several mentors and leaders personally come out to greet them?Fergus also furrowed his brow, cursing, "Damn! How arrogant! That idiot is just putting on airs because he's got himself a sugar mommy!"Fergus was furious. More than that, he felt the same envy as Mabel! It all seemed like a joke to him. Sebastian, the loser,

    Rosalie shook her head. "They probably don't understand much. It's mainly for publicity. They'd probably just attend a few events. "You know, promoting traditional medicine is quite challenging nowadays. This is just one of the strategies we thought of—leveraging the natural popularity of celebrities to promote traditional medicine. "Those singing competitions on variety shows now often invite non-professional celebrities as judges to provide sharp critiques, grab attention, and create discussions."Sebastian nodded, slightly furrowing his brow but not saying much. Celebrities on the scene were just for show, after all. Sebastian didn't expect them to provide any insightful professional insights. As long as they didn't make random comments, he was fine."By the way, aren't you curious about the celebrities who will be joining?" Rosalie asked with a playful smile.Sebastian shook his head. "I'm not interested in the entertainment industry.""Boring!" Rosalie teased. "Let me

    As soon as those words left Sebastian's mouth, the entire room fell silent. The atmosphere became incredibly awkward.Zeke's face instantly turned red, his anger flaring. He slammed the table and shouted, "Nonsense! Utterly absurd! Kidney deficiency?"Zeke resembled an enraged cat with its fur standing on end as he vehemently berated Sebastian. One could say a man lacked money, influence, or capability, but one absolutely shouldn't accuse a man of having kidney deficiency, especially not in front of others. And most certainly not in front of those with status and reputation. This was a man's bottom line, his ego and dignity.It was simply unacceptable. Moreover, Rosalie was still present, making it especially embarrassing for Zeke.However, Sebastian just smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Fisher, though kidney deficiency is an illness, it's not terrifying. With active cooperation in treatment, it can be cured.""Nonsense!" Zeke was furious, and he said in a cold tone, "Young m

    Sebastian laughed wryly and shook his head at Nina's words. "Nina, you're staying behind so everyone thinks I'm still here. Rowan and Arran will stay here with you so that no one will become suspicious!"Nina frowned. "But I'll be worried about you being with Unus. It's still just a beast whose rational capabilities aren't fully developed yet. What if it—"Sebastian smiled and shook his head. "Don't worry. Hugo has subdued them completely already, so nothing unexpected will happen. Honestly, there isn't much in Boren that worries me. However, if the Yome Sect enters Steinberg while its defenses are down, we'll be put in a difficult position."Though reluctant, Nina finally agreed.That night, Sebastian quietly brought Unus out with him. As soon as he walked out of the hotel doors, two thugs hiding at the side of the road who had been watching them stealthily immediately reported his movements to Anton."Are you sure it was Sebastian?" Anton demanded sharply."Positive! He looks e

    "Kneel!" Joaquin yelled at Anton the moment he entered the room.Anton immediately dropped to his knees with a loud thud in front of Sebastian."My lord, my son is worthless. Everything that happened before was his doing. He has been a disgrace to our family. Please have mercy on his crimes," Joaquin said. He looked up at Sebastian and was puzzled to see how terrible his complexion was.Nina had been injured the day before, so why was it now the other way around? She had a rosy complexion, while Sebastian looked as white as a sheet."Alright. The important thing is to learn from one's mistakes and change. Don't forget the oath that you made. If you break it, I won't have to punish you. The law of heaven will act accordingly!" Sebastian said coldly."Yes, of course! I would never dare to break the oath! But…" Joaquin looked at Sebastian with a troubled expression.Sebastian frowned slightly and asked, "But what?""I can see that you don't look very well, my lord. Should I prepa

    After resting for the whole night, Nina's complexion had almost returned to normal. Even the wounds on her body had almost healed.In stark contrast, Sebastian looked worse than ever.It was the aftereffect of losing too much blood essence. If it wasn't for the fact that he had the legacy of the Sacred Medicine Society, he might have already been half-dead. Even so, Sebastian felt weaker than he had ever felt before. His legs felt like jelly, and he was unsteady on his feet."My lord…"Rowan blanched with fear when he saw Sebastian. Sebastian was as pale as a sheet. Even his lips had lost all color."My lord, how did you get into this state?" Rowan asked, clearly confused. Sebastian had seemed fine when they returned to Mount Klane the night before. Waving his hand slightly, Sebastian replied, "I'm fine. I'll get better after some rest. Why are you up so early?"Rowan grew even more worried after hearing how frail Sebastian sounded."My lord, did you get severely injured o

    As the car started, the two burly men kept close behind it.Rowan looked back at them from time to time and saw that the two burly men were keeping a fixed distance from the car. He couldn't help gasping.Weren't they walking inhumanly fast?"My lord, they—"Rowan pointed at the two burly men behind them."Don't ask about things that you shouldn't ask about," Sebastian said, looking down at Nina, who was still in a coma.He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that her complexion was becoming rosy once more.After arriving back in Mount Klane, Sebastian checked into a five-star hotel at Joaquin's insistence. Once he had settled Nina in, Sebastian called the two Devora to his room."Do you have names?" he asked.The two Devora shook their heads slightly. Like Hugo had said, they had been born of Dragon Energy, and they caught beasts in the mountains for food every day. Why would they have names?"Well, you've got to give me a way to differentiate between you, right? You even

    Arran and Rowan asked in confusion, "Aren't we going to look for the Ballard Estate anymore, my lord?"Sebastian turned to look at Arran. "We'll die before we reach the Ballard Estate!"Arran didn't know how powerful Nina was, but Rowan knew better than anyone that Nina was a top expert. If even she had gotten severely injured, Rowan and Arran would have no chance of entering Mount Quiln at all."Arran, trust in Mr. Ballard. Leaving Mount Quiln is the right thing to do!" Rowan said. He held Joaquin safely and asked Sebastian, "What do we do with him, my lord?"Sebastian turned to look at Joaquin. He said impassively, "Joaquin, I should execute you on the spot!"Joaquin immediately knelt and groveled. "Mr. Ballard, I'm willing to be your servant too. Please, if you don't kill me, you can tell me to do anything!""I don't have to kill you, but you mustn't let anything about what happened tonight leak out. Otherwise, I'll kill your entire family!" Sebastian said coldly.Joaquin s

    "Do you think it's worth losing all your training to save her? Aren't you afraid of dying?" Hugo couldn't help asking bluntly. Sebastian smiled slightly. "I'm scared! However, she only got into this state because she was trying to save me. How could I just abandon her? We may just be master and servant, but our fates are related!"Hugo couldn't help shaking his head. "Young man, I can only save you this time. As we move forward, I may have trouble even protecting myself. Therefore, take these two items and go home!" Hugo reached out with one hand and dropped the Devora in front of Sebastian. He had been tortured half to death.The Devora was panting heavily. Although he understood that Hugo couldn't kill him, the endless torture was worse than death."Bite the tip of your tongue and wipe the blood on his brow!" Hugo instructed blandly.Sebastian held Nina up with one hand and did as Hugo had said. "Now say, the servant dies with the master, and heaven and earth bear witness!"

    In less than a minute, the Devora was sent flying over ten times. The strange thing was that no matter how many times he was sent flying or how hard the impact was, he didn't bleed at all. Sebastian was secretly shocked. "Do you know why you were defeated so badly?" Hugo tapped his finger again as he spoke.Sebastian shook his head. Before that day, he hadn't even known what a Devora was. How could he possibly know why he had failed so badly? It must just be a question of skill!"How bold of you. You didn't even know the history of a Devora, and yet you dared to enter the mountain?" Hugo laughed wryly."Aren't Devoras one of the nine sons of the dragon?" Sebastian asked, looking up. Hugo spat disdainfully and asked, "Who told you that? Roveras are one of the dragon's sons, but Devoras aren't!"As he spoke, Hugo tossed a blood-red pill out and said, "Let her eat it. Use your blood essence and this pill to save her."Sebastian was startled. How could he obtain his blood esse

    "A Devora? Oh no!" Samson suddenly returned to his senses. He almost rushed out through the gates, but then flames roared up around him. A wall of fire that was several hundred feet high blocked his path! Samson was Sebastian's father. After being imprisoned in the house over ten years ago, Samson had become cut off from the world. He had thought that he would never be able to see his wife and son again. Getting news of Sebastian once more was very unexpected!However, Sebastian had come across the Devoras. He was almost certainly going to die!In Samson's anxiety, he had even forgotten the Fyre Spell that had been set up around the house, which was why he had run right into the spell center and triggered the Fyre!Samson felt extremely anxious as he looked at the Fyre Spell, but he was unable to take even half a step out.

    "Indigo Thunder Shield!" Sebastian chanted under his breath as he used all his strength. A purple flash of lightning appeared around Sebastian. There was a blast as the punch landed heavily on his body. It felt like a falling meteor as it clashed with the indigo lightning! A loud sound boomed in the area, like a mountain exploding, and Sebastian flew backward.The burly man felt equally uncomfortable. The indigo lightning had shocked him so much that his legs had gone numb. "How many other tricks do you have up your sleeve?" The Devora stood up straight and advanced on Sebastian, who was lying on the ground!…In the mountains, in the backyard of the Ballard Estate, Andreas was holding a tablet and pointing at Sebastian and Nina on the screen. They were both throwing up blood and lying on the ground.
