"Mr. Jacombe, I can't believe it's really you," Sean said, his voice tinged with palpable disappointment as he looked at the familiar, aged face in the darkness."Mr. Jacombe, please save me!" exclaimed Anson. His eyes brimmed with intense hope when he caught sight of Martin, as if he had found a li
"But Mr. Jacombe, that punk was disrespectful to you!" one of the four generals exclaimed, their expressions still showing traces of anger.Martin took a deep breath and stated, "You don't understand him. Lower your rifles.""Yes, Mr. Jacombe..." Reluctantly, the four guards complied.Martin shifted
"I apologize, Sean. Consider that the hundreds of lives lost from the Lakeworth family were because of me."Martin let out a deep sigh, locking eyes with Sean without avoiding it. "You can't take Anson's life. If you're looking for revenge for the Lakeworth family and your mother, then take my life
"Yes, Mr. Lakeworth!" Diego replied, taking a step forward.He then looked up at the night sky and ordered in a loud voice, "Zenith, Might, Wyvern, Astra! Show yourselves!"As soon as he finished speaking, four torrents of energy soared into the sky from four corners of the Nonagon Council. Four fi
The palpable pressure shrouded the air, causing the four guards' knees to weaken involuntarily and their expressions to pale as they were drenched in a cold sweat.Nevertheless, they remained steadfast in their duty to protect Martin."Sean Lakeworth, the man standing before you is the former head o
Much to his dismay, Martin had to safeguard Anson so his death wouldn't ignite a war.He was aware that the Xenos family was just a pawn being used by the mysterious force. If the Xenoses fell, the mysterious force could easily elevate another family to take its place.However, Anson's death would u
"Ha! You're sorry? We must first safeguard our country and then our homes?" Sean laughed bitterly at Martin's words. "I agree that personal sacrifices are sometimes necessary for the country's development, but that doesn't mean we should tolerate or indulge those parasites!""Sean, sometimes we hav
"Quickly, hold your breaths and hide your presence!" Amelia instructed in a low voice.Everyone suppressed their breaths and hid in the bushes.In the sky, a swoosh echoed, and tracking waves radiated through the air. Upon failing to detect the presence of any vital energy, they quickly left.After
"What? Did you say that Grandma and the others are here?" Selene's heart skipped a beat."Yes! Hide yourself!" Sean said urgently.Suddenly, they heard a swoosh, and before they could move a muscle, the sounds of wind breaking resounded in the forest. The strongest presence amongst them had already
"First time?" Startled, Sean then realized what she was speaking about and chuckled awkwardly. "Yeah, it was. What's the matter?""That explains it." Selene had a confident look on her face, as if she were now sure of something. "What do you mean?" Sean asked, puzzled."That explains why there's su
"Would you like to expose Zephyr's scheme?" Sean asked in a deep voice when he saw the iciness in Selene's eyes."Yes." Selene nodded. The disgust she held for Zephyr was undisguised in her tone."The Ten Great Families are still in the dark; even if both of us combine forces, we're far from being Z
"Selene, I'm sorry about what happened earlier. I couldn't control myself." Upon hearing Selene's low mumbling, Sean felt the numbness in his scalp intensify.Even though he had been forced to take action in this incident, he took the initiative to claim the responsibility. After all, Selene was at
Selene moaned softly, gradually waking up.Sean took in a sharp breath and felt his scalp turning numb. This was bad! He hurriedly got up, wanting to clear up the scene.However, when he looked at the clothes strewn across the floor, he knew that it was too late to dress Selene and cover her body.
Sean's body tensed, his mind resonating with a thunderous roar.Before he could react, Selene's soft lips pressed firmly against his. Her tongue, sweet yet tentative, explored his mouth.In an instant, heat ignited within Sean like a wildfire. Unable to restrain himself any longer, he swiftly pushed
