Chapter 61
Rand truly deserved the title of Prime City’s number one divine doctor! Though he looked young—almost Arion’s age—his abilities were astonishing.Before obtaining the Demon-Sealing Sword, Arion had never admired anyone this much. But today, seeing Rand fight to save a life stirred genuine admiration in him.Half an hour passed, and finally, the aged Sir Edward began to recover. His breathing steadied, and his condition improved noticeably. Rand finished cooling down after his intense healing session. Though visibly fatigued, he still raised his hand toward Arion and said, “Go, call Marco. He’s in the next room.”Panting slightly as he spoke, Rand prompted Arion, who hurried off to fetch Marco.Farrel, who oversaw the villa’s security, had already dismissed all guards and servants to ensure privacy for this crucial moment. When Arion returned with Marco, the scene was vastly different from before. Sir Edward was already sitting up, his face flushed with healthy color, looking far bette

Rand burst into hearty laughter. Gently, he patted Arion’s shoulder and said, “Little brother, there’s no need to be so formal with me. Just relax.”“All right, Big Brother!” Arion replied with unconcealed joy.Sir Edward and Marco were equally delighted. They also treated Arion with great respect, for in their eyes, anyone whom Rand honored was worthy of honor.“Doctor Rand, after this, how many more years can I hold on?” Sir Edward asked about his health with hopeful eyes.Rand smiled. “Sir Edward, thanks to my little brother’s help, this time I can guarantee your safety for the next ten years!”“Ten years!” Sir Edward and Marco both looked deeply satisfied.Sir Edward’s face lit with vigor and determination that belied his age. “Ten years is more than enough. In ten years, I can put everything in order.”It was clear that Sir Edward did not consider Arion an outsider, speaking so openly in front of him. But Arion didn’t truly understand the meaning behind those words, and he chose

Arion stepped out, waved farewell, then turned and walked inside.As before, the casino looked quiet on the surface. Only a few waiters dozed at the tables, and some couples sipped their drinks. No one paid any attention to Arion’s arrival. Yet his feelings upon entering were different from last time. Perhaps the difference lay in one thing—confidence.With steady steps, Arion approached the bar and tapped the counter lightly. “Call your boss over here.”“Who do you think you are, daring to call—” The thug who had been napping woke up with an annoyed face. Hearing someone demand the boss, he immediately grew angry, ready to curse. But when he saw it was Arion, his face turned pale. He swallowed his words, almost bursting into tears of fear. “M-Master Arion, what brings you here?!”Arion fixed him with a cold gaze. “I want to see your boss, Paul.”“Yes, yes, I’ll call him right away!” The thug stammered, fumbling for the walkie-talkie in his pocket. His hands shook so badly he nearly d

In front of them stood Garry, a pistol aimed directly at Arion and Paul. Behind him, many of Paul’s men lay sprawled helplessly on the floor—it was clear that Garry had seized control of the situation with an iron fist.“Garry, what exactly are you planning?!” Paul demanded. Though panic had gripped him at first, he quickly regained his composure. Having weathered countless storms, he felt more confident now with Arion by his side.“Tch, Paul, don’t you realize the longer we follow you, the less future we have?” Garry said coldly. “Money keeps running dry, women are getting scarce. If things keep going like this, what’s the point of staying here?”“What do you mean by ‘future,’ Garry?” Paul asked, trying to make sense of the situation.“Mr. Martin Winzy offered us great benefits, but you turned it all down. You don’t want to make money, and you even offended the Winzy Group. I really don’t understand what’s in your head. So, hand over this casino to me, and let me lead our brothers to

Arion stood calmly, brushing off his hands as though he had swatted a fly. Those around could only swallow hard, stunned by his deadly composure and overwhelming power.No one would have expected that Arion, who looked like a scholarly gentleman, could be so ruthless and lethal!Once the initial shock passed, Paul looked at Arion with deep gratitude. Then, with burning resolve, he charged out once more. This time, he was like a tiger descending from the mountain—unstoppable. Alone, he rallied his men and seized back control, exploiting the enemy’s confusion.Within half an hour, the battle was over.Garry, who had thought everything was under his control, had lost everything in an instant. “Paul, don’t think Arion can really save you. The Winzy Group controls the entire underworld in this city. Even if Arion is powerful, he’s still just one man. You’ll regret this!” Garry spat bitterly.By now, Arion understood everything. He looked at Garry coldly, recalling how Garry had once bullie

“Arion, since you value me, then I, Paul, will not retreat a single step. Even if it means death, I will keep moving forward!” Paul felt his blood boil with fiery determination.Arion gave a faint smile, patting Paul’s shoulder with satisfaction. “We’re just getting started. Don’t talk about dying. What we must do is crush them until nothing remains!”Paul felt that meeting Arion and becoming his friend was truly the turning point of his life. With that promise, Arion left Paul’s casino, ready to wait for the right moment to strike.At dawn, Arion slept soundly without training further, exhausted after the long day. But there was someone who could not sleep.In the presidential suite on the top floor of the most luxurious hotel in Prime City, a man dressed casually from head to toe, with slightly curly hair reflecting his untamed nature, held a glass of red wine. As he casually stared at the message on his phone, he said meaningfully, “It seems what Mr. Matius Winzy said was true. Thi

Arion was back working at Frinchy Group and already had his own office—a small room just past the elevator on the 30th floor. To reach his office, he always had to pass by Nadine’s office. At that moment, Arion was lounging in his chair, appearing to be napping. In truth, he was quietly training with the Demon-Sealing Sword. Suddenly, Nadine’s sharp voice pierced his ears. “Sleeping during work hours? Do you still want your salary this month?” Arion quickly lifted his head and replied, “Miss, don’t be so harsh. I just dozed off for a bit. Does that really deserve a ten-thousand-dollar cut?” “Haha…” Nadine burst into laughter, unable to hold back. “I’m only joking. Today, I’m taking you out for lunch.” “What?” Arion could hardly believe what he heard. Nadine, famous for being stingy and unwilling to spend a cent, suddenly wanted to treat him to lunch? Was this some kind of trick? Nadine nodded seriously. “Sandy has made his decision, and he won’t let me down. So, I want to t

He might indeed be a loser, but that didn’t mean he knew nothing! Arion had read countless novels, and not without reason. He had a unique habit—every time he encountered new information or facts in a story, he would look them up on the internet to verify them. One of his greatest pleasures was finding mistakes in an author’s writing and then criticizing them. So, when it came to red wine, he actually knew quite a lot.Yonatan, as if afraid the waiter wouldn’t understand, quickly added, “Make sure you open the oldest one!”Arion smirked and gave Yonatan a thumbs-up. “Mr. Anraw, you really know how to choose the most expensive, but not the right one. You’re truly the perfect example of a standard gentleman.”Arion’s sarcasm was clear to everyone present. In his eyes, only arrogant and pretentious nouveau riche would make such choices. And what Yonatan hated most was being mocked in exactly this way.“Arion, what are you saying? Do you think you really understand red wine?” Yonatan want

“Nice work, Nara!” Arion cheered inwardly, though his face showed feigned panic. Without Nara’s help, it would have been impossible to pull off the trick so perfectly.Though cute, Nara was cunning. When Arion had drunk half his soup earlier, Nara had already set things up so that it would all end up on Yonatan, making him nauseous. Yonatan was forced to vomit everything, further adding to his humiliation.“My goodness, even a gentleman can vomit? So I wasn’t overdoing it earlier, right?” Arion said as he held Nadine close, watching Yonatan now covered in food and drink.Yonatan, his face green with fury, pointed at Arion with trembling hands. “Fine, I’ll remember your face from now on! One day, I’ll make you regret this!”Without waiting for a reply, he turned and stormed out. He had planned to humiliate Arion, but instead, he became the laughingstock.Before his figure even disappeared completely, Arion’s steady, meaningful voice echoed:“A gentleman isn’t measured by how neat his c

Nadine quickly pulled herself back to reality and walked toward Sandy. After quite some time, their meeting went smoothly. Sandy firmly expressed her support for Nadine.When they left the hotel, Nadine’s laughter rang out joyfully. This might have been her happiest day since arriving in Prime City—and it was all thanks to the man beside her. Gratitude filled her heart.At that moment, Nadine and Arion walked side by side along the main road. Their hands brushed occasionally as they joked and laughed. Arion felt the cool evening breeze enveloping them. If life could always be like this—peaceful and full of happiness—he would gladly give up a few years of his life.But behind the calm and comfort of life, shadows of evil always lurk.---Inside an abandoned building, a large, bald man stood under the dim moonlight. A diamond ring adorned his nose, gleaming faintly. Slung over his shoulder was a slender, alluring woman.Her hands and feet were bound, her mouth tightly gagged. Only faint
