The next morning, Zane waited for Luna in the lobby of Vance Corp. His expression was dark, unable to hide his worry and irritation.“Luna, we need to talk,” Zane said the moment his sister stepped out of the elevator.“I have a meeting soon,” Luna replied, feeling slightly bothered by the tension around him.Zane gently pulled her aside to a quieter corner. “This is more important than your meeting. You need to fire Amalia. Right now.”Luna took a breath, her irritation rising. “What now, Zane? You’re always suspicious of everyone close to me. First Edwin, now Amalia. What did she do? She just brought back a lot of clients. She even saved us from a huge loss, and now you want me to fire her?”“She’s manipulative, Luna. Louis told me she’s trying to use you to get close to him while tearing you down at the same time. She praises you and then insults you. She wants you gone.”

“Zane…” Luna’s voice trembled, a mix of embarrassment and anger burning in her chest. Amalia had been right—Zane always suspected everyone for no reason. And now, after everything Amalia had dedicated to Vance Corp, he was accusing her of something this cruel, all based on evidence that could easily be forged with advanced tech.“Are you really doubting me?” Zane’s voice sharpened. “Did you already forget about what happened with Edwin?” His disappointment cut through every word.Luna froze, torn. Who was she supposed to trust? She was stuck between respecting her brother and being grateful to Amalia.But Zane’s accusations—always a storm waiting to ruin things—came back to haunt her.“Luna, look at the evidence carefully,” Zane urged, stepping closer. “This isn’t fabricated—”Luna lifted her hand, signaling him to stop. Her jaw clenched, fighting back tears born from frustration

Luna sat anxiously at the conference table. Zane still hadn’t shown up, even though his presence was badly needed.“Luna, excuse me, but are we still having this meeting?” Roy, the owner of Aether Tech, sounded slightly irritated because the meeting hadn’t started due to Zane’s absence.“Please be patient, Sir. Zane will arrive soon.”Roy was annoyed. If Louis hadn’t told him to invest in Vance Corp and promised him a major project, he would never have agreed to work with such a small company.“You should give the Vice-CEO position to someone else. Zane is completely incompetent. I’m afraid his carelessness will destroy Vance Corp,” Amalia whispered, trying to hide her irritation.From the beginning, she disliked Zane because she felt he was taking advantage of Louis. His behavior didn’t reflect that of a company executive.“But Zane is my brother.”&n

That afternoon, Luna sent a message to Zane.[Zane, you need to know this. Amalia is very competent. She managed to bring Helios Digital back. I think choosing her as Vice-CEO was the right decision. You should see her—she works nonstop.][Be careful, Luna. Don’t trust someone too easily. You don’t want what happened with Edwin to happen again, right?]Luna exhaled softly. She knew Zane cared, but his suspicion toward Amalia felt unfair now. To Luna, Amalia was the most reliable ally she had, someone who gave her the validation and confidence she’d been searching for.Meanwhile, Amalia continued executing her plans. Using her new position, she began enforcing several major changes in Vance Corp’s policies. She reassigned staff who were loyal to Zane into unimportant departments and promoted those who praised her quickly and were easy to control. She did all this using the excuse of “Christopher’s sug

Meanwhile, at Le Fleur Restaurant, Manager Arlo walked back into his office with proud steps.“Mr. Arlo, you were amazing,” Sandra the receptionist whispered, her eyes filled with admiration. “You actually dared to turn away that cheap former CEO of Vance Corp. Mr. Christopher will definitely be proud of you.”“Of course,” Arlo replied smugly, adjusting his tie. “In this world, reputation is everything. We must protect Le Fleur’s status as a restaurant for the elite. She does not deserve to dine here.”His phone suddenly rang. Arlo glanced at the screen. It was a call from Nicolas Gwen, one of Le Fleur’s major investors and a very conservative real estate businessman.Arlo answered immediately. “Good evening, Mr. Nicholas. It is great to hear from you,” he greeted cheerfully.“Arlo, what did you just do?!” Nicolas shouted without hesitation.Arlo stiffened. “What do you mean, Mr. Nicholas? I do not understand.”“Do not pretend to be stupid. I just got a call from someone very importan

Zane nodded obediently. He tapped something on his phone, which was already connected to the large screen displaying the Kings Corp logo. It now showed several screenshots of a conversation. The screenshots contained private messages between Edwin and his boss, Jerome.[Edwin: I already found a new target, Boss. Her name is Luna. She just became the CEO of Vance Corp under Chrizen Corp. I’m going to persuade her to become an investor in Kings Corp.][Jerome: How are you going to convince her?][That woman is too easy to take advantage of. Luna was my friend back in elementary school. I’ll pretend my little sister is sick. I’m sure she’ll immediately offer an investment.][Jerome: Good, Edwin. Once she agrees to become an investor, you will be promoted straight to Vice-CEO.]The conversation ended. Silence fell over the hall. Edwin’s face turned pale, and Jerome didn’t look any better. They had been humiliated in front of all their colleagues.Luna stared at Edwin, and the tears she ha

"Grandpa, I came back here because I want Grandpa to teach Dramon to control that mysterious power! Because I'm sure, Dramon will be able to beat Roxy with his abilities! Because just yesterday, Dramon overwhelmed Roxy when they fought!" Zarlia kept on babbling as he recounted the tension of the fierce battle."So you want to use Dramon just to fulfill your ambition?"Zarlia fell silent.Xior sighed wearily. "I have said many times that I give that power for good, not for revenge! Don't you understand?""I did, Grandpa! I've always been loyal to helping people with my strength during my travels! However, I can't accept the death of my family due to Roxy's cruelty! She must die!""It's useless if you expect Dramon to succeed in killing Roxy even though he is the strongest demon in the world.""Why?!" Zarlia was disappointed."Because Dramon will lose if he uses his powers for revenge. Because anger will make him short-lived. Even though he seems strong at first, he will eventually lose

"Where are you going, Smelly Child?"Dramon stopped when he was confronted by five of Grandfather's disciples. He was surprised to hear them cursing at him. Even though they were very kind when they welcomed his arrival yesterday. Dramon thought they could accept his condition, which always gave off a rotten smell like carrion.However, all of that is just hypocrisy."I'm will leaving here.""Finally, we don't have to hold our breath and pretend to be friendly with you anymore.""Pretend? What do you mean?" Dramon was surprised."Before you came, Grandpa had told us to be nice or not to show a vomiting expression around you." Drogba chuckled evilly.Dramon lowered sadly. His suspicion was correct that Grandpa was forced to accept it because of Zarlia's request."You don't worry. I promise I won't come here again."Dramon passed them and left."Dramon! Wait!" Azeta ran after the boy while crying loudly.Dramon was forced to turn to his second friend. His heart hurt seeing the girl cry.

Zarlia was busy cooking in the kitchen. After living alone, the little girl could do any job that adults often do."Zarlia."The young girl turned when she heard Grandfather calling her. "Ya?""Can I talk to you?"Zarlia was surprised to see Grandpa's expression. He was a little tense and worried, but Zarlia tried to smile. "Of course.""I will be waiting for you on the terrace.""Alright."Grandpa Xior left Zarlia while the girl rushed to clean up all her cooking utensils before following Grandpa.After finishing, Zarlia went straight to meet Grandpa.The young girl found Xior pensive while looking up at the sky. Zarlia approached Grandpa, who was standing with his back to him."What did Grandpa want to talk to me about?" Zarlia was a bit tense. Maybe Grandfather would reprimand him for a mistake.Grandpa took a deep breath before looking at Zarlia seriously. "Since when did you become friends with Dramon? And where did you meet him?"Zarlia frowned in confusion until she was silent

Night's getting late. Zarlia and Dramon sat cross-legged around the bonfire. The girl was busy burning the fried fish she had just caught. Occasionally he glanced at Dramon, who kept pensive."Eat this." Zarlia handed the grilled fish to Dramon. Dramon stared at the fish. Because of his selfishness and fish, he lost his life support."I'm not hungry," said Dramon coldly."Ck! I know you're grieving! But you can't starve to death. If you die, we won't be able to carry out the revenge mission!" Zarlia protested.Dramon looked at Zarlia sarcastically. "Shut up! I won't eat! Are you deaf?!"Zarlia was wide-eyed, not expecting Dramon would dare to snap at her. He immediately remembered when the boy had a tantrum earlier. Now, she can no longer curse Dramon just like that if he doesn't want it to end badly."I'm sorry. I was just worried about you getting sick. It's fine if you don't want to." Zarlia ate the fish alone."I'm sorry. I didn't mean to snap at you.""No problem." Zarlia smiled

"Mother... don't fight him. He is a strong man. We will die." Dramon tugged at his hand to escape."Go away, Dramon!""No. I'm not going to leave you!" Dramon said firmly. Even though the boy was a loser, he wouldn't let his mother die."Don't be stubborn at a time like this, Dramon! Go and take cover!"Saffia turned to Zarlia. "You must be Dramon's friend, right? Please take him as far away from here as possible!""Alright." Saffia pulled Dramon's hand forcibly as he struggled."Let me go! I'm not going to leave my mother!" Dramon was crying hysterically."Don't disobey your mother!" "Don't worry. I will definitely let you guys meet Ozel!" Roxy smiled mockingly."Get ready to go to hell to catch up with Ozel!" Roxy attacks Saffia.There was a fierce battle between them.Saffia ran while shooting the vicious man with thousands of arrows. However, his attacks always missed and didn't manage to hurt Roxy.Roxy drew the Dark Dragon sword from its scabbard and chased after Sapphire. Roxy

Luckily no human has power beyond him, so he destroys every human who wants to free his brother so that he can fellowship easily. Usually, humans wish to cooperate with the Dark Dragon because they are jealous of their brothers. Just like what happened between the White Dragon and the Dark Dragon.However, the White Dragon and the Human loved each other like brothers and friends. However, the White Dragon knows that humans can die and cannot be together forever like his eternally aged self. Because of that, the White Dragon entered into a blood pact. He gives some of his blood to humans so that the blood of the two flows until they have the same genes. So that the children who become the descendants of his human partners can inherit his covenant and power forever so that the White Dragon Demon is created.Because humans can be trusted, he allows himself to transform into a magic sword to be used to eradicate the evil generated by hatred and allows himself to fall asleep."Actually, w
