"Who are they, System? What's the distance now?"[Warning: Vengeance user detected at coordinates 56.13, -4.67. Distance: 7.8 kilometers. Status: Moving away toward the North.]"Moving away? Is he unaware of my presence?" Arthur gripped the hilt of the black dagger, his eyes warily scanning the mist over the lake.[Analysis: Most likely, the target is on another elimination mission. The Host's current Synchronization Level is too low for a direct confrontation.]"Too low? Are you kidding me?"[Fact: The Host has just recovered from total paralysis. Your physical stats are still below the average of a professional athlete. If you encounter them now, the survival probability is only 12%.]Arthur exhaled sharply. The coldness from the Black Highland Dagger crept up his arm, as if agreeing with the system's words. "Then don't let me waste any more time. Give me the most brutal training menu you have. I don't want to just survive. I want to dominate."[Opening Menu: Hell's Training Protoco

This is impossible," Dr. Graham whispered, his eyes wide as he stared at the tablet screen displaying the latest scan results. "Arthur, can you feel it? Can you really move your knee?"Arthur took a deep breath, pretending to be surprised while slowly lifting his right leg a few centimeters off the bed. "A little, Doc. It feels like... a stinging electric current, and then suddenly there's power.""Nerves that should have been dead for years... this is a complete medical anomaly!" Dr. Graham paced the room, ignoring the fact that there had been a bloody message on the corridor wall that morning. "I have to report this to the board of directors. You could be an extraordinary research subject.""No, Doc," Arthur cut him off quickly. He stared at the doctor with an intensity that made him stop in his tracks. "I want to go home. Lily and I are not safe here.""But this progress of yours...""You saw what happened last night, didn't you? Someone broke in here to kill me. The police can't g

The silver needle glinted under the dim light of the corridor lamps, sliding rapidly toward Athur’s jugular. In the silence of two in the morning, the movement looked like an efficient dance of death. However, the assassin had no idea that he wasn't facing a helpless prey.Athur didn't scream. He didn't have the luxury of calling for help if he wanted the secret of his power to remain buried. With a single jerk of his hand, now blessed by system energy, he caught the man’s wrist."Too slow, Doc," Athur whispered, his voice barely more than a snake's hiss.The man gasped, his cold eyes now wide with shock. He tried to press the needle harder, his arm muscles tensing beneath his white coat. His strength was beyond that of an ordinary human, but Athur had something better.System, activate Telekinesis Level 1. Target: Syringe.[Command accepted. Consuming 30 Vengeance Points.]Athur felt the air pressure around the killer’s hand suddenly solidify. His fingers didn't need to move much. An

"My name is Marcus Thorne," the man repeated, his voice heavy and dripping with arrogance. He placed his black briefcase on the small table, right next to Arthur’s empty IV bottle. "I represent your father, Mr. Alistair McAlister.""Alistair doesn't have a lawyer; he only has guard dogs," Arthur hissed, his eyes never leaving Marcus's every move. "What do you want?"Marcus smiled, the kind of smile that never reached his eyes. "Your sharp tongue hasn't dulled even though you're in a wheelchair, Arthur. I'm here to discuss Lily's future. This medical facility... I find it inadequate for her trauma. Mr. Alistair has prepared a more 'private' place for her in the highlands.""Private? You mean a prison?" Arthur gripped his bedsheets. "Tell that bastard he will never touch Lily again.""This isn't an offer, Arthur. It's a notice," Marcus said, pulling a document from his briefcase. "Sign this, and you will receive a monthly allowance sufficient to live comfortably as... an ordinary citize

"System, show me the location right now," Arthur commanded through gritted teeth.The transparent screen flickered rapidly, projecting a detailed digital map of Glasgow. A blue dot blinked in the city center, right at the Sterling Investigation Group's luxury office building.[Location detected. Distance: 3.2 kilometers. Main server is located on the 12th floor.]"They want to ruin Mom's reputation? After everything they did to her?" Arthur muttered, his hands gripping the hospital sheets until his knuckles turned white. "I won't let them."[Suggestion: Host does not need to be physically present. Use 'Digital Intrusion' via the system interface. Cost: 50 Vengeance Points.]"Do it," Arthur replied without hesitation. "Enter their server. Destroy anything that could tarnish my mother's reputation."Instantly, Arthur's vision split. His left eye still saw the dim hospital room, but his right eye was now filled with rows of rapidly flowing green code. He felt as if his consciousness was

The pale morning sunlight filtered through the gaps in the hospital curtains, illuminating dust particles dancing in the air. Two days had passed since the incident at Angus McGregor’s apartment and the bloody night an intruder tried to end Arthur’s life. Thanks to the system, his wounds were closing faster than medical logic could explain, yet he still had to play his part. He remained the paralyzed, broken, and helpless Arthur McAlister.Beside his bed, Lily was still fast asleep. Her pale face looked slightly more peaceful after Arthur had secretly administered the last drops of the Vial of Shadow Mending to her lips last night. Although the system stated a higher level was required to fully heal her nerves, at least her breathing was no longer labored.Suddenly, the ward door swung open with a violent jerk. No knock, no manners. The sharp, expensive scent of masculine perfume immediately invaded the room, drowning out the clinical smell of antiseptic."Good morning, dear brother.
