Just like that, there was no denying it—one of the car’s front tires was crushing something under its weight.

Something that felt suspiciously human.

At that moment, even someone as audacious as William Brown could feel a stab of fear in his heart.

“W-What… Are we going to do now?” the driver said, his voice trembling from terror.

The gears in William’s head turned at light speed. Honestly, he was just as panicked as the next guy. Fortunately for them, William was no stranger to the wilder side of life. He even came out of most situations with more resilience than the average Joe. It did not take him long to calm down and say, “Let’s just get out of the car and check if that person’s dead”

“Oh…”

Realistically, it was the only thing that the driver could do.

Howard and the rest of the group still had no idea what had happened, but they got out of the car anyways. He asked William, “What’s the matter, Mr. Brown? Why did you stop the car?”

“We ran into someone,” he replied, his ex

    William’s face was seized by violent horror. He was covered in goosebumps. His hair was standing on end. No matter how firm his beliefs—or lack thereof—were as an atheist, his conviction was seriously challenged by the primal fear that was incited by the potential danger headed their way.Slowly—mechanically—he turned.There was a man behind him, hidden by the shroud of darkness that was created from the fading light.William could not capture a single feature on the man’s face. It was tenebrous, merely shadow and silhouette—to William, it was a terrifying sight.He took a gulp and backed away from the silhouette until he was toe to toe with Howard and the driver. “Who… Who are you?” he demanded, his voice audibly quivering.Howard and the driver were just as harrowed too. They shook like leaves, almost certain that they had just stumbled upon a supernatural creature.The silhouette said nothing; it simply faced them. It looked like it had no intention of leaving. They swore that

    Despite being Faye’s cousin, Howard was undeterred. A rabid cur—that was what he was. How could Zayn ever extinguish the flames of his anger?All three of them could feel the bloodlust that Zayn emanated. At the end of the day, they were nothing more than just regular folk with unexceptional capabilities, so being trapped in the dark with a man hellbent on killing them was something out of a living nightmare. It would come as no surprise that even an unthreatening breeze could make their skins crawl.Howard was the first to break under Zayn’s gaze. With a shrill scream, he turned on his heels and fled for his life.It roused William from his stupor, and quickly, the man shouted at the top of his lungs, “Get him, all of you! Kill him—rip his mask off! This *sshole just can’t get enough of these mind games and Halloween spooks, huh? I wanna see who he really is!”All three of his bodyguards obeyed his command and lunged at Zayn in a coordinated attack. They were professionally-traine

    Faye had never felt so helpless.Her hands and feet were bound, and her means to resist her captors had been incapacitated.The car was so well-insulated that it muffled anything coming from the outside. All that had gotten through to her was the sound of someone talking—a heated argument, maybe—and that was it. She was completely clueless as to what was going on outside.The feeling unknown was gnawing at her stomach. She felt like her sanity had taken a huge dip. Time continued to crawl at its petty pace, and each passing second worsened her initial state of restlessness, torment, and despair.She rued her naivety. She should not have believed that bastard’s words and put herself in such a precarious position. She could already imagine how the rest of this would play out—what William would do to her, and how he would immortalize it in a video. Once that video was spread all over the Internet, her life would be over.Faye wished for someone to come and save her, even if it meant

    “It’s okay now, hush. I beat them up and chased them away. You’re safe now,” Zayn cooed gently, rubbing Faye’s cheeks. He tore the tape off the woman’s lips.A cry, followed by a heartbreaking bawl sprung out of her mouth as soon as the gag was removed, and the distressed woman threw herself onto Zayn. She was whimpering like a little girl.Zayn had her in his arms as he patted her back gently, hushing her with a litany of soothing assurance. This was the first time he had ever seen Faye cry like this.“I was so terrified… God, I was so terrified…” she sobbed. As soon as her ropes were undone, she wrapped her arms around Zayn and squeezed him as tightly as she could. Zayn felt like he could not breathe.Faye was scared that he would disappear, so she held onto him for dear life, like a drowning woman clinging onto the last floating barrel out at the sea. She had never been so scared before, not even during that one time with Ethan—she had never been so fearful.Honestly, Faye had

    Faye had to muster all the courage within her to ask the question, and even so, the words could not leave her without her cheeks flaring a scarlet red. Blushing or not, she was determined enough to raise her head and her snow-fair neck before nailing her eyes onto the chairman of Violet Vision.The intensity of her gaze caused Zayn’s heart to pound tumultuously against his chest. He was starting to panic. His mind was expeditiously rummaging through all the possible motives that were fuelling her thought process. What was the purpose of her saying something like that? Was it because she had cracked the code? Did she know who was behind the mask?Or was it all a test?He was panicking so much that he could not read Faye’s gaze properly. He did not notice the ardor nor the passion burning brightly in her eyes.Faye’s heart was racing, too. The chairman’s silence made her believe that the man had conceded to her request, so she reached towards the man’s face to relinquish him of his s

    Zayn was fortunate enough to have lied about being the chairman’s ‘friend’ to Faye prior. Otherwise, the cat would have been out of the bag. What a save!He went along with the convenient excuse and admitted, “Yes. Uh, I was in a hurry, so I borrowed his car.”“Oh,” she replied, nodding without any skepticism. Zayn breathed a sigh of relief.The car started to move, and after a journey filled with silence, they were back in the city in a matter of minutes.Faye was feeling anxious the whole ride. She was mostly excited though, as there were clearly other complex feelings being thrown into the mix. She summoned enough courage on multiple occasions throughout the trip to tell the chairman about her feelings, yet every time she turned to look at him, the very same courage was vaporized in an instant.She kept telling herself that she still had time—all the time in the world—to wait a little longer, just a little more…Zayn watched a very lovesick Faye and her furtive attempts to spy

    Only God knew the amount of courage that Faye had to summon in order to confess her feelings to the chairman. Her heart was racing to its maximum speed, and she felt like she was coming down with a fever. It was the first time she had ever confessed to a boy!What was even more shocking—she had no idea what the man looked like at all, not even in the slightest!Half a year ago, if anyone told her that she would be confessing her love to a mysterious masked figure, she would have thought that they had lost it. Faye Carter would never do something so ludicrous!And yet here she was. It seemed outlandish—but there was a method to the madness. She felt that she had truly come to love the chairman. She loved him so much that she could not stop herself. Sure, she had never truly seen the man in his unmasked state, but her instincts were telling her that the chairman was strong, handsome, and everything that she looked for in a man!Despite meeting the chairman on only three occasions, th

    Faye was like a bird freed from its shackles. Her feelings had been emptied like a pitcher; gone was the hesitation, gone was the conflict in her mind. Everything was crystal clear—her emotions flowed so naturally.“You might be shocked; I know you are. I’ve only met you three times, and I’m already irrevocably in love with you,” she said, passionately meeting Zayn’s eyes. Her gaze was softened by a gentleness that was previously unseen. “To be honest, ever since we’ve first met, your big heart... Your altruism… They left an impression on me that won’t ever go away. That was the darkest moment of my life. I was in despair; I was hapless, in pain, and I accepted my fate as a sacrifice. But you… You were the one who saved me. You showed me that there’s more to this world than monsters and men, that those knights in shiny armor really do exist!“My mom said it’s all an act—she said it’s the sort of masquerade that powerful people like yourself put on, so that naïve little girls like me

    He had already found his next path and he was hopeful for his future. He was convinced that he could reproduce the miracle perfectly if he had enough time!He turned around abruptly and saw Zayn’s icy cold face. He could not refrain himself from saying aloud, “Zayn! I’m your father-in-law! You can’t kill me!”There was a change of Zayn’s icy cold face at last when he heard that. He furrowed his brows for a moment. However, just as Osiris was pleased about his remark, Zayn had already thrown a punch. It was a simple, unadorned, straightforward, concise punch that landed heavily on Osiris’ chest. A poof that sounded like poking through a layer of paper was heard when he punched through Osiris’ chest. On the other hand, Osiris’ body halted to a stop as well. He widened his eyes in disbelief and lowered his head to look at his wound incredulously….“You… You…” He glared at Zayn, his gaze filled with recalcitrance, fear and regret. Zayn said nonchalantly, “You don’t deserve to be h

    “You’re next.”Bang!Upon saying that, he exerted strength in his limbs and flew toward Osiris. Yes, he flew over. His body rose into the air and he was capable of standing steadily in the air without any support. He looked just like a superhero from the movies!Most importantly, he was extremely swift in speed and had already surpassed the speed limit achievable by mankind. Osiris felt an immense sense of danger that he had never felt before at this exact moment. It sent a shiver down his spine instantly and he was actually scared out of his wits that his body turned icy cold. He had a feeling that he was no match for Zayn and that he would die immediately if he stayed!Zayn who advanced beyond invincibilis state was way too powerful that he could not make sense anymore and he was no match for Zayn. He made the quickest and most precise decision that was to run. He would spare no effort in running away from Zayn!While there was life, there was hope. Zayn’s success prov

    Hence, they did not have the courage to rescue Zayn even after noticing that he was in imminent danger. They could only watch helplessly and do nothing. “Look! That’s Sergeant Larson! Oh god, what transpired in the past few days? Why is Sergeant Larson being surrounded by so many powerhouses from the clubs? He can’t possibly escape from danger under such circumstances no matter how powerful he is!”“Oh no, oh no, Sergeant Larson is going to die here…”“What should we do? Could it be that we’re not going to do anything to save him?”“I don’t know. Let’s ask for instructions from our superior…”The numerous combat aircraft in the sky began to send out signals and asked for instruction from their superior. Soon, they received the reply and they were instructed not to act rashly or approach easily. It was because they would be doomed if they were to get closer and enter the attack zone of the invincibilis powerhouses. Hence, they could only watch from afar and await reinforcement

    Upon saying that, Zayn placed Faye on the ground in an extremely gentle and cautious manner. Faye’s body had already become stiff, but her body had actually begun to turn soft after being caressed by Zayn’s palm. She lay flat on the ground with an expression that looked like she was asleep. After Zayn was done, he turned around and looked toward Osiris, his expression icy cold. He said nonchalantly, “It’s your fault that Fifi is dead. You deserve to die.”Next, his gaze swept across everyone and said something that terrified everyone, “All of you deserve to die!”Upon hearing that, Osiris’ expression turned somber and filled with murderous intent abruptly. He had already realized by now that his hard work and effort of a lifetime was wasted on Zayn!At the moment he found Faye in her aging state completely drained of life and power, he realized that his plan had failed!The result of his hard work for a lifetime was seized by the bastard before him!In an instant, his rage

    “Zayn’s willpower is so strong that he is capable of withstanding the pain of his body’s restructuring indifferently. He’s an excellent talent.” The person speaking was the armored man and he was looking at Zayn through the cloud without attempting to conceal his admiration. He had encountered plenty of geniuses and countless geniuses more gifted in martial arts than Zayn. However, Zayn was the only ine whose willpower was so strong that he could endure the pain of body restructuring. Even he himself failed to withstand the pain of body restructuring and had rolled on the ground frantically. The woman nodded to herself as she looked at Zayn without attempting to conceal her admiration and approval. “This Earther is quite impressive. He has already taken the step successfully. My trip to Earth was not wasted this time…huh?”However, it was at this exact moment when Zayn on the ground raised his head and looked in their direction with his sharp gaze as if he could sense them.

    Zayn wanted to reject her instinctively, but when he saw the final hopefulness in Faye’s eyes, he could not bring himself to reject her anymore. He knew that it was Faye’s final moment.The glint in Faye’s eyes was vanishing gradually. He opened his mouth and of all the words he wanted to say to her in her last moment, he said, “Yes!”Upon hearing the word, Faye’s aged face cracked a smile. Then, the joyous smile was frozen on her face for eternity…Zayn’s body stiffened as well. He had already forgotten how he landed on the ground, but he remained in the same position with Faye in his arms for a very long time. He hugged Faye until her residual body temperature dispersed and her body began to become stiff. Zayn was heartbroken. He felt a feeling of dejection and hollowness that he had never experienced before and it washed over his entire body like a flood. He lost track of time until he felt the rain pouring from the sky. Even the sky could feel his sorrow and began to w

    Zayn had never felt so agonized in his life!It was because he knew that Faye was already at the end of her life, not even God could save her now!He had no idea why his heart would ache so badly and why he hated himself so much. It was well within his expectation that both Faye and him would not survive the fall. Now, he was in so much agony just because Faye was one step ahead of him in death. Was he in agony because Faye sacrificed her life for his survival, or was it because he would not see Faye again for the rest of his life?Zayn’s mind could not function normally anymore because he was in so much pain and tormented now. His body was still dropping constantly and at an increasing speed. They were dropping so fast that Faye could not withstand the process and was suffocating. After seeing Faye’s condition, Zayn did not even think. He began to stop his body from falling at full speed instinctively as he was born to do it until he became completely suspended in the air!I

    Upon saying that, Faye kissed Zayn’s lips. It was a kiss so deep and unhindered. Zayn hugged Faye tightly as well. In the beginning, he was under the assumption that it was a very normal kiss. It was their final sentimentality before death. However, Zayn discovered that something was off soon!It was because he could clearly feel a gush of immense power passing from Faye’s mouth constantly. The intensity of the power had even surpassed that of the fruits he consumed in Shangri-la. The unexpected change caught him off guard and he was dumbfounded instantly. He did not manage to respond to the situation. What the heck was going on?He widened his eyes and stared at Faye before him. However, he soon saw something that sent a shiver down his spine. Faye’s hair turned from black to white swiftly at a visible speed!Moreover, Faye’s fair, tender skin aged constantly as if life was drained from her instantly. Her skin turned wrinkly and dry like a tree bark. The situation did

    “Listen to my order, all members!”Meanwhile, Osiris spoke, his expression filled with ferocity . “Locate both of their bodies from the cliff at the fastest speed!”Upon saying that, he vanished from where he stood. Meanwhile, two people stood at a mysterious location that no one could see above Regicide Heofon’s ground. These two people were a man and a woman. The man was clad in armor and assumed the posture of an army general, filled with dominance. He exuded a powerful presence that had already surpassed the level of all powerhouses on earth. Even Osiris and Zayn were nothing in this man’s presence. On the other hand, the woman stood in front of the man. Her beauty was impeccable and she was as graceful as a fairy…The woman had her head lowered to look at the cliff ahead of her and cracked a peculiar smile.
