Ryu felt an intense pain as if hundreds of ants were biting his body nonstop."Ahh!"Ryu’s scream was so loud, but fortunately, the bathroom where he was had soundproof walls, so no one heard it.Ryu’s body slowly released a black liquid, turning the soaking water black.Ryu’s eyes widened, and he vomited a mouthful of black blood. Then, the pain slowly disappeared."Damn, what just happened?"Ryu did not know why he had experienced such pain earlier. Then, he began to check his own status.He found that his physical strength had reached 10 Points, which meant he had become stronger.As for the pain earlier, it was because all the impurities in his body had been forcibly expelled.Smelling the unpleasant odor, Ryu got out of the bathtub and saw that the water inside had completely turned pitch black."I need to clean my body again."Ryu walked to the shower and rinsed his body with water. All the sticky black grime slowly peeled off from his skin.The feeling Ryu experienced this time

Astrada Company...In a spacious room, two women were sitting nervously. One of them seemed to be making a call with an anxious expression.As if the person on the other end of the line was her last savior this time.The woman making the call was Jessica Levanda. She was the director or leader of the Astrada Beauty Company.Jessica’s eyes widened when she heard the statement from the person on the other end. “M-Mr. Ryu, you’re not joking, are you?”“Of course, I wouldn’t joke. However, I want to know the full story of the company, why it’s on the verge of bankruptcy.”“You don’t need to explain now, just tell me the company’s address and I’ll come there tomorrow!”Ryu’s voice was clear and firm. This made Jessica and the woman across from her freeze.Jessica remained silent, unsure whether she should trust the man on the call.Her gaze turned toward the woman in front of her.That woman nodded, signaling her agreement with the young man’s words.“Alright, Mr. Ryu! I’ll send the compan

Ryu comforted Eliza until late at night, then Eliza ended it with a few particular sentences."I don't know how many women will get close to you. I just want you to know that I loved you and I needed that affection.""I will give this phone number to Bella. She often became dazed for no reason and when I asked, she said she missed you!"After saying that, the call ended.Ryu himself smiled while staring at the phone. "Geez, I really would look for many women. However, not for collection but for shared happiness.""As for marrying them, I would think about it later." Ryu muttered softly, he needed to strengthen himself first before stepping into marriage.After making the call with Eliza, he walked up to the second floor, then entered the bedroom.Ryu's gaze was fixed on the wall clock which showed eleven o'clock and soon would enter a new day."I’d better wait while training." Ryu muttered softly, then he started training every muscle with full enthusiasm.Somewhere else...The police

Ryu, who had already come home today, was now lying on the bed. Tomorrow, he would make a visit to the Astrada Company.Time kept passing, and finally, the sun rose from the east. The birds perched on the trees began to chirp, signaling that morning had come.Ryu, who was sleeping on the bed, slowly opened his eyes. He yawned for a moment, then got up from the bed.He walked toward the bathroom and began cleaning his body before putting on formal clothes.As for the servants, they would arrive at noon, and that had been taken care of by Vera, so he did not need to be present.Ryu finished bathing, he looked at himself in the mirror, now wearing white clothes covered by a black suit.He did not wear a tie, making him look like an ordinary office worker.Soon after, Ryu went down from the second floor. He went to the kitchen to make a light meal to fill his stomach before leaving.Just as he was eating, a knock was heard from outside the house. Ryu raised one eyebrow in confusion, wonde

Ryu nodded slightly, he stood up and followed the two women. He also felt that the two women in front seemed anxious and nervous.This made Ryu smile, then the three of them entered the elevator together with the receptionist who had come down. The receptionist’s eyes widened when she saw her two superiors together with that guest.The receptionist lowered her head before watching the three of them enter the elevator. She muttered softly, "it seems true... This person was not an ordinary one..."Not long after, the elevator reached the top floor where Jessica’s office was located. The three of them walked toward the office and entered casually.Ryu, who entered the office, observed the surroundings and nodded several times. "The office where you’re located was quite nice."Jessica smiled, then she replied in a gentle tone. "Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Ryu."Then, the three of them sat on the sofa. Jessica and Esmeralda were on one sofa while Ryu was on the sofa across from them.
