As the Chief barked away orders, Kairos clutched the burnt shoe in his hands, and his chest suddenly hurt painfully."Cough! Cough!" He held his chest and began to cough up blood uncontrollably.General Nikolai and the soldiers were alarmed. They rushed forward to help him sit on the ground. General Nikolai then placed his palm firmly over Kairos’ chest, right above his racing heart. A faint silver glow began to seep from Nikolai’s palm. Kairos’ breaths were ragged and uneven, his body trembling under the weight of his rage and grief. But Nikolai took a deep breath and began to murmur some words quietly.Silvery wisps of light flickered around his arm before trailing down to his fingers and sinking into Kairos’s chest. The spiritual energy weaved through Kairos' veins like glowing threads.At first, Kairos' body jolted as the calming force collided with his turbulent aura, but Nikolai pressed down gently, his voice low and commanding as he murmured an incantation in an old tongue th

Seeing Kairos' face, Lilith fumed and snatched the knife out of her father's hands. She brandished it and scowled, "Didn’t I ask you never to show your face to me again? How dare you come here? I'll kill you myself!"Then she lunged at Kairos, her fury blinding her reason. Seeing this, Nikolai couldn't just stand by and watch."How outrageous!" He stepped forward, shielding Kairos behind him."Step aside."Nikolai paused and turned to look at Kairos. He didn’t expect him to say such things. "General, she is—""Step aside," Kairos didn’t want to mince words with him and he got the warning clearly."Okay."Watching Nikolai step aside, Margaret looked at the two men with disgust. Calling Kairos a general? How humorous!Two years ago, she had personally seen the so-called general roaming the streets in rags, ranting madly about war and glory. He had completely gone insane and was calling himself names like General, a God of War and so on.If the old Castillo's matriarch hadn't quickly ord

But even though Margaret was rattling and shaking Kairos hard, the latter remained unruffled and on the spot. He even tried to assure her calmly, "Mum, don’t worry. As long as I am here, they won't be able to hurt you." "You bastard!" Margaret yelled, slapping his chest. "Didn’t you hear what I said? Get down on your knees and apologise!" Without waiting for a response, she pushed him forward. His cold electric blue eyes swept over Sebastian, who was waiting eagerly. His lips curled up coldly, and he snorted, "You want me to get on my knees and beg him? Forgive my manners, mother, but I'm afraid he won't be able to handle my apology!" "You..." Not only Sebastian, everyone except Nikolai was equally stunned by Kairos' blunt arrogance. Even at the time of death, this rascal refuses to admit his wrong and apologize. How foolish of him! "If my knees touch the ground in front of you—" Kairos locked eyes with Sebastian, a haughty glint swirling in them. "—your Wood's family will

Sebastian has never been this horrified in his entire life, and he was literally saying anything to save himself. He was quite desperate, and they could all see it.Kairos halted, sneering slightly with contempt. "The Wood's family? What could they do?"In a split second, he caught up with Sebastian and lifted him off the ground with just one hand. A deadly murderous aura filled the atmosphere."Kairos! How dare you touch me?! Don't even think of hitting me! I tell you, it's completely over for the Castillos if you do!!! Ah!!!" Sebastian flapped his arms in the air like a scared chicken."Stop!" Margaret Castillo snapped out of her reverie and stormed forward. "Kairos! You bastard! What do you think you are doing?! Put Sebastian down right now, and don't even think of hurting him! If you touch him, our family won't be able to explain!"Right now, Margaret was thinking, 'Fine, Kairos has served in the army for a few years. Obviously, he would have learned how to fight. So what? Could

"You are absolutely right, sir!" The teacher immediately agreed with principal Cameron. "Those parents are just troublemakers and ingrates. They fuss over everything."The teacher must be so used to bootlicking the principal because she knew the exact right words to say to stroke the principal's ego.Principal Cameron sneered, clearly pleased. "They don't even pay much for tuition fees, but we provide good food and water for their children. Yet, they still complain about everything!""Yes," the teacher bobbed her head vigorously. "Isn’t it the same food and water that we also give other children? Look at Mateo Castillo. Why didn't he also fall sick after eating and drinking from the cafeteria?" Principal Cameron hissed."Sir, I think those people just want to find someone to blame for their children's poor health," the teacher leaned forward. "Besides, that little bastard Mateo is naturally healthier than others. His blood type is strange and unusual. His heart is also rare..."Befo
