Chapter: CHAPTER 768Suddenly, one of the guards who was supposed to be watching the prisoner rushed into the hallway from the courtyard, realizing his mistake. He saw the unlocked chains and immediately pointed a trembling finger at Clara to save his own skin."Sir! She was trying to help him escape!" the guard shouted in panic. Clara’s mind raced. Her throat went completely dry as she tried to make up words to deny the accusation, but her tongue felt very heavy. Nothing was coming to her head. She was trapped.Butcher didn't look angry. He slowly turned his gaze away from Clara and fixed his dark eyes on the terrified guard who had just spoken."So," Butcher said softly, pulling a sleek pocket knife from his vest. "What you are trying to say to me... is that you were put on lookout duty, and you completely failed your task."Before the guard could even blink or apologize, Butcher moved with blinding speed. He lunged forward and violently slashed the sharp blade directly across the guard's neck.SLASH

Chapter: CHAPTER 767It was Commander Desmond. He was a notorious high-ranking official, and the junior officers always had major problems with him because of his massive ego and harsh attitude. Henry and Ashley immediately stopped their whispering and stood up straight as he got closer."Welcome, sir," they said in unison, saluting."I am Commander Desmond," the large man introduced himself, looking around at the ruins with his hands on his hips. "I was officially placed in charge of this special task force case this morning.""Welcome, sir," Henry repeated smoothly. "As you can see, the bodies are—""I know exactly what this is," Desmond interrupted loudly, scoffing. "This is the work of the Obsidian Syndicate."Ashley and Henry exchanged a confused, alarmed look. "The who?" Ashley asked."The Obsidian Syndicate," Commander Desmond barked, puffing out his chest. "They are a rogue faction, deadlier than anything you have ever seen before in this city. But I promise you, under my strict, expert leadersh

Chapter: CHAPTER 766After the horrific operation at the mountain tunnel, Clara drove away from the scene as fast as she could. She needed to breathe. She parked her battered car near a lonely, deserted city park and sat down heavily on a bench. The night was ending, and her hands were still shaking from the anger and disgust. She pulled out her burner phone and dialed Valthera’s number. Valthera was currently away, deep into another ruthless mission assigned by the Obsidian Syndicate. The phone rang twice before Valthera picked up, her voice low and alert. "Mom," Clara whispered, her voice cracking with deep exhaustion. "Things are getting so hard out here. Working for them... it is tearing me apart." "These people do not even have any form of a conscience. They just slaughter everyone. It has already been six long months of this nightmare, and I do not know how much longer I can keep up." On the other end of the line, Valthera took a slow, calm breath. "Do not lose hope, Clara. I promise

Chapter: CHAPTER 765Up ahead, the tattooed gang leader was sitting comfortably in first place, nearing the halfway point. He glanced into his rearview mirror, expecting to see his boys. Instead, he saw Clara's headlights rapidly closing the distance. His eyes widened in disbelief. "What the hell?" he muttered, violently spinning his steering wheel to weave across the road. He did everything he could to block her from passing.But Clara was too fast and too skilled. She timed the leader's movement perfectly. As he swung left to cut her off, she sharply jerked her wheel to the right, finding a tiny, impossible gap along the concrete barrier. She floor-boarded the throttle, her rusty metal side-mirror scraping against his door in a shower of bright yellow sparks. With a roar of triumph, she blew right past him, taking the lead.She sped toward the entrance of the massive, pitch-black abandoned mountain tunnel. But instead of turning around to complete the race loop, Clara suddenly pulled her handbrake hard

Chapter: CHAPTER 764The supreme leader of the racing gang, a large, intimidating man in his late forties, covered in dark tattoos and wearing a leather vest, stepped forward. He looked at Clara, then looked at her dented, rusty car, and laughed right in her face. "You want to race with that? With this piece of garbage? You must be playing some joke, little girl.""I am not joking," Clara said, her eyes turning hard as steel. She stepped closer to him, crossing her arms. "In fact, I don't just want to join the regular run. I want to race you directly. And to make it interesting, I'll add another two hundred thousand dollars of my own money to the prize pool."The entire garage erupted into loud, frantic laughter again. Men banged their wrenches against metal tables."Race the boss? Are you completely out of your mind?" a mechanic shouted from the back.The tattooed leader stopped laughing, his eyes narrowing as he stared at Clara’s calm face. He felt insulted by her confidence. "Listen to me, child. I ha

Chapter: CHAPTER 763Valthera kept her hand near her holster, her eyes narrowing as she glared at the man. "What is the meaning of this?""The obsidian Syndicate does not wait for a payment. They simply take the entire empire as collateral."The Lieutenant stepped closer to Valthera and Clara. He stopped just a few feet away, his hand resting casually and confidently on the hilt of his blade."The old world is completely gone, Keepers," the Lieutenant said, his voice echoing off the high ceiling. "The pathetic rulers who built this table were weak, cowardly, and driven entirely by greed. They are the past.""You two, however... you are different. You survived our absolute best shadow hunters. You fought your way through the train, and you successfully killed Deathshade himself. You possess real, undeniable value to our organization."He paused, his masked face turning slowly from Valthera to Clara, letting the heavy weight of the surrounding arrows sink into their minds."So, here is the only promise and

Chapter: CHAPTER 150The dust from the shattered stone wall began to settle as Daniel lay in the dirt.He lay there for a long moment, a pathetic heap of bruised flesh and torn pride. With a trembling hand, he reached up and ripped the blindfold from his face.His eyes, once full of a false, arrogant fire, were now wide with absolute horror. He coughed, a spray of blood hitting the dirt, as he struggled to pull himself into a kneeling position. He was breathing in ragged, wet gasps.Lance stood ten feet away, perfectly composed. He reached up and slowly untied his own black cloth. As the fabric fell away, his piercing gaze locked onto Daniel’s. The silence in the arena was so heavy it felt like it could crush the stones."Real Blind Kill is not just about hitting your opponent," Lance said, his voice cold and steady. "It is about studying your opponent’s weakness.""Holy shit!" a voice erupted from the darkness of the stands. "That... that is the real Blind Kill! I've only heard stories of it!""I can't b

"That is a signature move from the General himself. You wanna try it? Or are you too busy shitting your pants?"One of the high-stakes betters laughed, pointing at Lance. "Look at his face! He’s petrified! He can’t even talk!""Come on, junior!" Daniel dared, beckoning with his hand. "Come on, step up and die!"Lance looked at the shattered stones and slowly shook his head. "That isn't Blind Kill. It isn't even close. If I taught a three-year-old child to swing a stick, he would honestly do better than that."The insult hit Daniel like a physical blow. Rage boiled over. "You piece of shit! What do you know? You don't get a say in what the General's arts are!""You want to learn the real Blind Kill?" Lance asked, stepping into the center of the pit. "I'll teach you. The first lesson is free."Daniel laughed, a manic, jagged sound. "Sure. I’ll show you the

Chapter: CHAPTER 148"There are no rules here, girl!" a better shouted back. "He signed his life away! He agreed to this! You're either living, or you're dead!""Alright then," Lance muttered. "Let's make it snappy."One guard rushed from the side, throwing a flurry of blows. Lance blocked the first three with a bored expression. "You're strong," Lance whispered, "but too slow.""You cocky bastard!" the guard screamed. "RUN THE WOLF PACK!"The guards moved. One jumped high into the air, his boots aimed at Lance’s throat, while another dove low. Lance lunged into the air, meeting the high attacker mid-flight. He delivered a devastating kick to the man's ribs.The sound of ribs cracking was like dry branches snapping. The guard was sent flying sideways, crashing into a pile of concrete blocks with a heavy thud.The third attacker, a man known for his incredible Asian martial arts speed, moved in. His hands became a blur, launching twenty punches per second toward Lance’s chest. Lance didn't even try to bloc

Chapter: CHAPTER 14"Oh, cute. So cute," Daniel laughed, leaning back against a rusted pillar as he watched Lance prep for the slaughter. "This bravado of yours is actually quite charming. But playing the hero in my house has consequences."He snapped his fingers, and a slim man in a tattered suit hurried forward, holding a single sheet of stained parchment. "Get him the permission slip to die," Daniel commanded.The document was shoved toward Lance. It was a waiver—a legal death warrant that stripped away any responsibility for what happened in the pit. "Sign it," Daniel said, his voice dropping to a low, jagged hiss. "Sign it, and your life stops being yours. Not everyone has the privilege to die at the mercy of the General’s descendant.""Sign it, punk!" a drunk gambler screamed from the rafters. "Sign your own death! Daniel knows the moves of the General! He inherited the power of a god! You're looking at a dead man!"Sophia’s voice trembled as she tried to pull Lance back. "It’s enough! Just because

Chapter: CHAPTER 146The older veterans in the crowd leaned forward, their eyes bulging. "Is that... the Dragon Pin? Only the General's inner circle ever saw those. Is he... is he really connected to the legend?"For a split second, pure terror flashed in Daniel’s eyes. He felt the weight of the pin, the coldness of the stone, and the undeniable aura of power it radiated. But then, his ego took over. He couldn't show weakness in front of his fans. He let the pin drop to the dusty floor."You really think flashing this fake piece of metal puts you in the league of the General?" Daniel laughed, though his voice was a pitch higher than before. "You really want to die that bad, huh?"With a heavy thud, Daniel brought his boot down, stamping on the pin and crushing it into the dirt in front of everyone.Lance’s fists clenched. A cold, murderous energy began to radiate from him. "You have no idea," Lance whispered, "what misfortune you have brought upon yourself by destroying that insignia."Daniel laughed, wav

Chapter: CHAPTER 145At the center of a sunken stone pit, a young man stood over a collapsed opponent. This was Daniel. He was lean, muscular, and moved with a practiced aggression. With a predatory grin, he hoisted his half-conscious opponent into the air and delivered a final, crushing blow to the man’s solar plexus. The victim crumpled like wet paper."Look at him!" a massive gambler near the front row roared, slamming a stack of bills onto the betting table. "That’s the Colton bloodline right there! He’s undefeated, just like the old man was. He took that guy out with one breath!""I'm doubling my bet!" another shouted, leaning over the railing. "All in on the Son of the General! He’s a god in that ring!"Sophia walked beside Lance, her eyes wide with a mixture of disgust and fear. "This isn't like the gym, Lance. This is a death hole. They aren't just betting on points; they’re betting on people's lives."Daniel basked in the praise, throwing his arms wide as the crowd screamed his name. He looked up

Chapter: CHAPTER 305Nathan’s consciousness began to return as a sharp intake of breath filled his lungs. His chest rose violently, his body convulsing like he’d been struck by lightning. Then came the surge which felt like electricity, the force that seemed to awaken every cell in him. Power unlike anything he had ever felt began to course through his veins. It wasn’t just adrenaline; it was something supernatural. Nathan’s fingers twitched, curling into the dirt beneath him. Despite his wounds he felt zero pain. The darkened sky rumbled, thunder cracked, and the atmosphere was heavy as if the heavens themselves were about to witness what was about to happen. Nathan opened his eyes. They gleamed with an intensity they hadn’t held beforebefore, he staggered to his feet, and his fingers curled into a fist.

Not like this. Not today. The branch creaked remindinf him that time was running out. Nathan closed his eyes and he gritted his teeth as he tired to summon the strength to pull himself up.

Sebastian, however, remained unmoved, he stood over Nathan with a grin on his bloodied face. "You really do not know when to quit, do you?" Sebastian taunted him. Nathan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand. "I will never quit," he said in a hoarse voice. "Not until I’ve destroyed you." Sebastian chuckled darkly, he was amused by Nathan's arrogance. "Destroy me?" he repeated mockinghim. "You can’t even stand properly, Lord Cloud."
