Chapter: CHAPTER 863The Butcher was a cold-blooded killer who would never cower in fear, no matter what impossible odds he was up against. He would gladly embrace a brutal death before ever begging for his life. But he was also a master strategist."I could be very useful to you," the Butcher said boldly, standing up to his full, towering height.Valthera raised an eyebrow, pausing her blade."It's only a matter of time before you start having your physical episodes again," the Butcher stated calmly, reading her face like an open book."You are strong, Valthera, but you and I both know your ancient physical system is failing. Your time is running out. The rare Flower of Life is the only thing that can cure you, and only the King knew its exact location."Valthera’s eyes narrowed dangerously, the blade pressing against his neck."I can restore you to full, permanent health," the Butcher pressed on, not flinching for a second. "You don't have the flower's location... but if you let me live, I can take you

Chapter: CHAPTER 862Clara slammed her hands onto the table, forcing herself to think fast. "There is an emergency medical section in the back of this bunker! Adrian built it! Find it... Everything you need to perform basic surgery is in there. You just have to remove the bullet yourselves and stop the bleeding."She grabbed a spare tactical rifle from the rack, checking the magazine with an icy, terrifying look in her eyes. "I'm going after Valthera."Without waiting for their reply, Dorian and Henry carefully lifted Thomas's shaking body, carrying him as fast as they could into the back medical room. Dorian was no certified doctor, but after years of surviving in the criminal underworld, he had removed dozens of bullets from his own body. Operating on another person was simple enough; he just had to extract the lead and stabilize Thomas until real medical help became an option.Meanwhile, on the upper levels of the city, Valthera stepped through a set of massive, dust-covered stone doors. She entered t

Chapter: CHAPTER 861There was no physical way Valthera could have broken into a maximum-security prison block, bypassed the entire police force, and murdered the King in cold blood. It made zero sense. Suddenly, Henry’s phone began vibrating violently in his hand. The caller ID showed the Police Commander's private line. Henry tapped the screen and pressed the phone to his ear. Before he could even say a word, the Commander's voice roared through the speaker so loudly that everyone in the room could hear it. The man was screaming at the top of his lungs, completely beside himself with rage. "VALTHERA HAD A MOLE ON THE INSIDE!" the Commander bellowed, his breath raspy with fury. "THE KING IS DEAD! SHE KILLED HIM RIGHT UNDER OUR NOSES! THE WHOLE PRECINCT IS IN SHAMBLES! I DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR DEALS ANYMORE, HENRY! BRING ME THE HEADS OF THE KEEPERS! DEAD OR ALIVE! I WANT THEM ALL DOWN! I WILL TEAR THIS ENTIRE CITY APART INCH BY INCH UNTIL I GET THEM!" CLICK. The line went completely dead. Henry sl

Chapter: CHAPTER 860Dorian and Grace both shook their heads rapidly in complete confusion. "No one knows about this bunker," Dorian whispered, drawing his own knife. "It's completely off the grid. We must have been followed.""Stay behind me," Henry ordered quietly.They slowly crept toward the heavy door, their weapons raised and ready for a fight. Through the thick glass viewing port, they saw a figure slumped against the frame, breathing heavily and smearing blood against the metal.It was Thomas."It's Thomas!" Dorian gasped, quickly disarming the electronic lock.They threw the heavy door open, and Thomas’s weak, limp body immediately collapsed forward, falling straight into Dorian and Henry’s arms."Thomas! What happened to you?!" Dorian panicked, holding his old friend up as Thomas wheezed painfully."Bring him inside! Quickly, lay him down on the table!" Clara called out, rushing over to clear the heavy wooden table in the center of the room.Together, Henry and Dorian lifted Thomas's heavy body

Chapter: CHAPTER 859He raised his free fist in victory, tears of triumphant joy streaming down his wrinkled face. "Now, all the foolish heirs of the ruling council are gone! The Obsidian Syndicate is gone! There is no one left alive in this entire city to stop me! Who says the patient dog doesn't eat the fattest bone?!"The immense exertion proved to be too much for his frail body. His knees suddenly buckled, and he collapsed backward. But his quick-thinking men caught him immediately, gently helping him settle back down into his wheelchair. Alberto didn't care; he just sat there laughing manically into the morning air.Far away from the shifting power dynamics of the city, inside the hidden, fortified underground bunker owned by Adrian, Clara and Henry walked through the heavy blast doors to meet up with Grace, little Brian, and Dorian. They had absolutely no idea about the chaotic bloodbath that had just taken place on the surface streets."Clara!"Little Brian’s face lit up the second he saw her walk

Chapter: CHAPTER 858Ashley stood completely still in the dark, damp courtyard of the police precinct, watching the gray ash dissolve into the wet concrete under the falling rain. She was not surprised or startled one bit. This was all part of her secret, carefully calculated plan.A few feet away on the elevated rooftop ledge, Valthera slowly lowered her sleek, high-tech compound bow. A dark, satisfied smirk spread across her lips as she looked down at the empty space where the King had stood just seconds prior."Best shot," Valthera whispered softly into the quiet night, her voice dripping with pride.Miles away, in the dim glow of the war room, Alberto watched the entire sequence unfold through the live camera feed pinned to Ashley’s collar. His eyes were wide, glued to the glowing screen as he witnessed the terrifying moment.That was it. The almighty King, the most feared, merciless man who had tormented the entire city for years, driving thousands of families from their homes, burning down whole n

His once formidable strength drained away, leaving him vulnerable and defenseless.James wasted no time, seizing the opportunity to launch himself at Friedrich once more, he unleashed a relentless onslaught of punches and kicks, and Friedrich finally fell to his knees.Friedrich, now weakened and battered, stumbled backward, his eyes wide with fear and disbelief.With one final, decisive blow, James delivered a powerful strike to Friedrich's jaw, sending him crashing to the ground.As Friedrich lay defeated at their feet, James turned to Amelia and Alice.James then made a call to Brian to bring another car to his location."Are you both okay?"

Nine... Eight..." "Alright!

The voice on the other end of the line was cold and merciless, leaving no room for negotiation or escape.James then turned off the speaker of the phone so that he could not hear what they were discussing."Amelia, we need to stay calm," James said, his voice steady despite the fear gnawing at his insides. "We have to do exactly as they say if we want to get out of this alive."Amelia nodded,

Chapter: CHAPTER 184James stood there, standing strong amidst the chaos, his demeanor unwavering despite the gunfire."You fools think a mere bullet can stop me?" James's voice cut through the tension like a blade. "You underestimate the power of the Winslow Empire."The gang members exchanged nervous glances. They had heard rumors of his invincibility, but witnessing it firsthand sent chills down their spines."You still have one last chance to surrender," James declared, his tone final. "Or face the consequences."But the gang members, fueled by arrogance and greed, refused to yield. With a defiant roar, they unleashed a barrage of bullets towards James, believing their firepower would finally bring him down.Yet, to their astonishment, James remained untouched, a proof of his indomitable strength.

I am the one holding the gun here, I could end your life here and now!""Ohh really?" James grew out of patience and in a quick move, he turned and knocked the guy right off his hand.As the gun clattered to the ground, James wasted no time.

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. He could hear Sebastian’s cruel laughter above as he mocked him. The so called Almighty Lord Cloud was finally taken down by his own half brother. "Tell your son that his father was a coward..."

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."

She sat nervously on one of the plush waiting chairs, her eyes glued to the front entrance.A few minutes later, a luxury car screeched to a halt outside the glass doors. Elena stepped out, wearing a glamorous outfit and a thick layer of makeup to hide the mark on her face. She held her chin up high, strutting toward the entrance of Astra Corp like she owned the entire block.But the moment she tried to walk through the heavy security gates, two massive, heavily armed corporate guards stepped directly into her path, blocking her completely.Elena stopped dead in her tracks, her temper instantly rising.

Panic seized her throat. If this deal slipped through their fingers because of a tiny scheduling issue, the Sinclair family would become the laughingstock of the entire high-society world."Please, ma'am! Please, Madam Selene!" Georgia begged, her voice rising in a desperate panic. "I will get her here in an instant! I will call her right now and force her to come down here!"With trembling fingers, Georgia pulled her smartphone out of her designer handbag. She quickly dialed Elena’s number and pressed the phone tightly against her ear, praying her daughter would pick up.Back across the city, Elena was actually standing inside a high-end luxury car dealership, happily admiring a sparkling, brand-new sports car. When her phone buzzed, she answered it instantly."Hey, Mom! Have you signed the massive deal yet?" Elena asked,

But you have been jumping all around the house in pure excitement since early this morning.""Uhmm, I think it's because I haven't fully recovered from that horrible ambush by those street thugs the other day," Elena lied smoothly, trying her best to look fragile. "I think it is actually much better if you go to Astra Corp today, Mom! I have already met Madam Selene briefly, but since you are the matriarch, meeting her face-to-face is a wonderful idea.
