“Rosalinde, 28 years ago, Dad lost Mom because he was only thinking about power and caused her to be killed by someone. Since then, Dad decided not to interfere with anything anymore.”“We are in a remote place like this now because Dad doesn’t want you to have even the slightest chance of getting hurt.”“Even by sending you to Myrcathia country and making you rulers there so that you are completely removed from the people from back then.”“Dad just wants to see you all safe and live peacefully. Titles, power, thrones—none of that matters anymore.”“The Dwayne family is not as simple as it seems from the outside. Behind them, they have terrifying people who help them.”“Even though those people never show up and reveal themselves, if they are in danger, they will definitely not just stand by! Dad is getting old, I don’t know how long I can protect you all.”“Dad is really scared that if you interfere with this gamble, then one day when Dad is no longer here, what will happen to you?”

“Don’t even think about testing my patience! Tomorrow is Richard’s bet with the Dwayne Family, and he will definitely die! Not only that, the lady from the D’Velaris Family has also agreed to appear and face Richard, are you not afraid....” The man’s words stopped abruptly when, suddenly, he felt a powerful force strike him from behind. Fresh blood spurted out from his mouth! Rowena, who had been following closely, saw Ravenna and Albin facing each other and immediately struck the man’s back without hesitation. The blow sent Albin flying several meters forward. The man rubbed his chest, which felt so painful. He lifted his face and glared at Rowena, growling. “You?! You’re also Richard’s master, right? How dare you attack me when I was off guard! Anyone who faces me should not expect to see the sun tomorrow!” Albin said with emphasis, preparing to thr

With Rio appointed as the leader, they all gathered and discussed their options for today. “The Dwayne family has already called in two martial arts experts with red belts. In addition, there are many five-star fighters. Who do we choose?” “But, Mr. Albin is Mrs. Deliza’s chosen son-in-law. If we choose Richard without his knowledge, it seems like he won’t just let us off easily.” “Mr. Rio, what do you think?” Rio squinted his eyes, then exhaled coldly. He looked at the competition arena, which was a few hundred meters away from where he stood, and spoke with a feeling of resentment. “Ask yourselves, do you want your own child’s hands and legs to break in vain?” “Albin, that sly man, clearly knows that Richard’s abilities are not weak and are quite impressive. He also knows that Richard has his own plans a

“One minute starts now!”“Sixty seconds... fifty-nine... fifty-eight...”The announcement voice began the countdown, making the atmosphere in the arena tense. Every pair of eyes there stared intently at the vast field before them.On the side of the Dwayne Family, there were thousands of people, while on Richard’s side, only Hallvard, who was sleeping, and Richard himself remained.It was clear who had lost decisively!Meanwhile, in the spectators’ area, Albin still stared at Richard’s figure on the screen in front of him, with a crooked smile on his lips.He watched as Richard tried to stand upright in the arena, with time running out.Albin’s mind began to picture the pieces of events that would unfold for Richard today!“I’m sure Richard won’t survive past one minute! This will end! Ever since I came back to life, you’ve been destined to lose, Richard!”“You are destined to always be beneath me, watching my life slowly rise! You will be all alone against thousands of people!” the m

Rhydian, who was far more shocked and desperate than Albin, looked wide-eyed, his eyeballs nearly popping out of their sockets.His emotions were uncontrollable when he saw that the person helping Richard was Hallvard—the killer puppet he had set free!Wasn’t that man his puppet? His mind and emotions were supposed to be gone! How could he still help Richard?That man’s abilities should have been limited to the level of a red belt, so how could he have advanced to orange?How could his progress be so rapid in just half a month? What had happened to that man?!None of this made sense. Everything was beyond Rhydian’s control and expectations.He had thought that even if he released Hallvard, at most the man would be like a block of iron—completely useless unless commanded.Hallvard shouldn’t have had any effect in protecting Richard. But the reality turned out to be the complete opposite of his assumptions.Hallvard, whom he had freed, was now far stronger than he had imagined. He was a
