Alaric swallowed hard. His throat felt dry, but he forced the words out. “No problem,” he said stiffly, lowering his head. “I’ll arrange everything immediately.” Christopher studied him for a brief moment, then turned away without another word. The decision had already been made. --- Two hours later. In a quiet room overlooking the city skyline, Victor Kane stood by the window, several sheets of paper clenched in his hand. The afternoon light filtered across the documents, casting long shadows over the name written at the top. Christopher. Victor closed his eyes slowly, his expression unreadable. The reports detailed everything they had managed to uncover—his sudden marriage to Anna, his unremarkable years of obscurity, and then his abrupt rise in Lisle City five years later. There were notes about his association with the wealthiest businessman in the city, the collapse of the Razen gang and Razen’s death, and the swift destruction of the Reginald family. Every even

Christopher stood before the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the city glitter beneath him like a kingdom that had forgotten who truly ruled it. “The Lancasters,” he murmured, eyes narrowing, “never learn.” Reginald was dead. His blood had barely dried, yet the family’s shadow was already stretching farther. They weren’t retreating. They were expanding. A faint smile touched Christopher’s lips—cold, deliberate. “Ambition without strength,” he said softly, “is suicide.” He turned, the air around him shifting with quiet authority. “This is good,” he continued. “Let them move. Let every rat crawl out of its hole. We’ll clean the whole nest in one sweep. No gang, no syndicate, no hidden blade in Peyspring State will remain. Anything that threatens the Round Table…” His eyes hardened. “…will be erased.” “Leon,” he called. The door opened instantly. Leon stepped in, posture straight as a drawn sword. “My lord.” “Summon thirty elite knights. Not recruits. Not reserve

Victor’s fury detonated. His palm came down on the mahogany table with terrifying force. The thick wood split down the center, cracks racing outward like lightning. Papers flew. The whiskey bottle toppled and shattered against the marble floor. The room fell dead silent. Needle froze. He had served Victor Kane for ten years. He had seen him negotiate with ministers, crush rival syndicates, and turn enemies into obedient partners with nothing more than a smile. But this— This was different. The calm, refined gentleman Aurethia knew was gone. In his place stood something far more dangerous. Victor slowly lifted his hand from the ruined table. Blood from the earlier cut trickled down his fingers, but he didn’t seem to notice. “Erase C&A Group,” he said, his voice no longer loud—but far more lethal. “Mobilize every crew. Every contact. I want them wiped off the map.” Needle’s chest tightened. “Mr. Kane,” he said cautiously, bowing his head, “Christopher is not an ordinary oppon

Inside C&A Group’s executive floor, the atmosphere felt like a collapsing dam.Alaric moved from desk to desk, phone pressed to his ear, sweat soaking the collar of his shirt.“Yes—listen, we’ve worked together for years—”The line went dead.Another call.“Please reconsider. This is only temporary pressure—”Click.The third call didn’t even pretend courtesy.“Alaric, we value our relationship, but Victor has spoken. We cannot risk our company.”The message was the same every time.Fear.Not business logic.Fear.Within an hour, termination notices flooded in like falling knives. Supply chains, logistics, banking services—one by one, lifelines snapped.Alaric felt the ground slipping beneath his feet.Without hesitation, he rushed upstairs and burst into Anna’s office.“President Lancaster!” he exclaimed, barely catching his breath. “If this continues, our cash flow will collapse within weeks. They’re cutting us off entirely.”Anna’s face drained of color. She gripped the edge of her

“Ten billion dollars… and he calls it small money?” Alaric felt as if his entire worldview had just collapsed. Only now did he understand — compared to Christopher, even the powerful Alderton Hills was nothing more than a minor player. Taking a deep breath to steady himself, Alaric’s eyes burned with excitement and reverence. “Mr. Howe, I promise I will complete the task!” Without waiting another second, he hurried out to begin the large-scale acquisitions. After Alaric left, Anna casually picked up Christopher’s bourbon glass and took a slow sip. “You’ve solved the problem again,” she said softly. In the past, Christopher’s grand gestures would have left her stunned. Now… she was simply used to them. Christopher watched her drink from his glass, a flicker of surprise crossing his eyes before he smiled. “If they dare to bully you,” he said calmly, “they’re bullying me.” His voice lowered slightly. “How could I allow anyone to bully my wife?” Anna’s lips curve

The double doors opened slowly. Victor stepped in. He wore a crimson suit tailored to perfection, the fabric catching the golden chandelier light like flowing blood. His presence alone altered the temperature of the room. Behind him stood Needle—spine straight, gaze razor-sharp, a brand-new katana resting at his hip. The blade’s polished hilt gleamed coldly, a silent promise of violence. Conversations died mid-sentence. Chairs scraped softly as eighteen gang leaders rose instinctively. Victor did not hurry. He walked to the head of the long ebony table and took the main seat without acknowledging anyone. Only after settling did he lift his eyes. One slow sweep. Not a single leader dared meet his gaze. They all looked down. Satisfied, Victor gave the faintest nod. Authority still ruled this city—and it still answered to him. He folded his hands calmly on the table. “I issued the Red Notice,” he began, voice steady and controlled, “for one reason.” A brief pause.

Chapter 87
Thirty minutes. That was all it took. Five thousand men had arrived like a tidal wave. Now the street lay silent beneath them. Bodies laid on the floor. Broken weapons glinted between pools of darkening blood. And at the center of it all— Sixty knights stood upright. Breathing steady. Armor stained crimson. The surviving gang leaders stared in disbelief. Years—decades—spent building their forces. Recruiting, training, forging loyalty through fear and blood. All erased in half an hour. The rage that ignited in their chests was volcanic. They locked eyes with one another. A silent agreement passed between them. “Kill them!” one roared. The remaining leaders charged as a single unit. Leon stepped forward, rolling his shoulders as though preparing for exercise. “My turn,” he said lightly. “You can all stay back.” The knights obeyed without hesitation. The eighteen leaders came at him together—men who had clawed their way from slums to thrones through bone-breaking brut

Chapter 88
With the death of Victor, the overlord of Aurethia City, and the fall of eighteen gang leaders along with five thousand men, the entire underworld of Aurethia collapsed in a single night. At the Silver Crown Grand Hotel, the most luxurious hotel in Aurethia City, panic filled the presidential suite. Seraphina Lancaster stood by the window, her fingers digging into the velvet curtains as she stared at the glittering city skyline. Just hours ago, that skyline had belonged to Victor. Now it belonged to Christopher. “My lady,” Mr. Black urged urgently, “Victor is dead. The entire Aurethian network has been wiped out. Staying here is extremely dangerous. We must leave immediately.” Seraphina’s face was pale, but her eyes burned with fury. “I came here to use Victor’s influence to control the gangs in nearby cities. With Aurethia as our base, the Lancaster family would have dominated the entire region.” Her jaw tightened. “And now everything is ruined… because of Christopher.”

The man in white studied the rotating patrols around Cloud9 Villa, his expression unreadable. Security had doubled since the chaos in Aurethia. Armed guards moved in disciplined patterns, eyes sharp, hands never far from their weapons. He lingered for a moment longer. Then he turned away. Within seconds, his white figure dissolved into the deepening night. Two days later, Cloud9’s most luxurious restaurant glowed like a palace above Lisle City. It was Faith’s birthday. Christopher had wanted something small — just family, warmth, laughter. But Evelyn had other ideas. The words “C&A Group’s little princess” had spread through Lisle’s upper circles like wildfire. And when the most powerful conglomerate in the city throws a party, no one declines. Luxury cars lined the entrance in a glittering procession. Executives, investors, and socialites stepped out in tailored suits and designer gowns, each carrying carefully chosen gifts. C&A Group now stood at the peak of Lisle’

The scream tore through the candlelit hall. Before the guests could even comprehend what was happening, Anna spun around on instinct, pulling Faith tightly into her arms and turning her back toward the threat. A metallic crack exploded through the darkness. Christopher’s arm had already moved. The sharp report of his gunshot echoed across the room, and the silver dagger was struck midair. It spun wildly, ricocheting off course and embedding itself into a marble pillar with a violent clang. For a fraction of a second, Christopher’s hands trembled. Not from fear. From rage. He rushed forward, his eyes scanning Anna and Faith in a single sweep. “Are you hurt?” Anna shook her head, still shielding Faith, who clung to her dress in confusion. “We’re fine.” A shadow burst from the darkness. The man in white lunged like a phantom, another blade flashing in his grip — this one aimed straight for Christopher’s heart. Gunfire rang out again. But Christopher didn’t step
