“Hmmm… You’re pretty skilled yourself, managing to keep evading our attacks… Seems like you’ve experienced life and death battles alongside martial arts masters, huh?”Bintang didn’t answer. Nei’s condition was worsening. Judging by her pale face, the arrow must have been coated with poison.“Watch out…” one of them warned.Bintang had just delivered a feint. The attack struck perfectly at the chin, catching the masked man off guard and unable to defend himself.Bang!“One?!” Bintang didn’t want the man he struck to recover.He leapt and then drove his foot into the man’s stomach.Bruuuk!The powerful step drove the man into the ground. The impact rendered him unconscious.“Bagas…” The surprised man realized the masked fighter was now targeting his body.Instantly, attack after attack was unleashed by both of them. But Bintang had anticipated all their movements, patiently waiting for a small opening to end the fight.“H-how can you see all my attacks?!” Yuga shouted, striking while t

Bagas, who had just woken up, tried to look toward Bintang. He noticed the mask lying on the ground and suddenly remembered being defeated by the masked man.“Y-you…”“Bagas, stop spilling the ruler’s secrets… C-can I still endure this pain?!” Yuga tried to muster his courage. But the sensation of multiple strange poisons gnawing at him made him babble incoherently.“I-I…” Bagas couldn’t find words.“Seems like you two are siblings… Judging from how coordinated you are, even if one of you is in constant pain, you still won’t speak, huh?”Bintang grinned widely. It showed that the young man, whose age was close to Yuga and Bagas, was ready to do the same.“D-don’t you dare hurt my brother! Just kill me… and let my brother go! Y-you… Ahhhh!” Yuga continued to endure the pain.“Brother…” Bagas suddenly felt like crying, and he stared at Bintang.“What exactly do you want? Tell me, and I’ll answer!”Bintang nodded in satisfaction. “Your mind is more mature than your brother’s…” Just as he

“If you don’t come, you’ll regret it… What is your real name?”“My name? Hahahaha! I’m not as famous as you in this country… My name isn’t worth mentioning. Ladies, thank you… I only came here to take a look around!”Bintang walked casually, his gaze settling on the Goddess of War.“I heard a war between two nations is about to begin… According to the Goddess of War, will you—the Five Dragon Goddesses—interfere?”“Y-you…” The three of them instinctively stepped back. Clear shock flashed in their eyes when they realized the secret clinic’s physician knew their identities.“You know who we are, then you must—” Tia cut herself off.“Who am I? Haven’t you already seen my face? Why bother thinking that I’m someone close to you?”Goddess Medist stepped out from her hiding place and said, “What you said is true… but we don’t know each other. Don’t act familiar… especially not by trying to influence us.”Bintang nodded and turned to leave. “Someone who once betrayed the Dragon King… is indeed

“Slander? Then why does my grandfather seem to harbor such deep hatred toward you? And how did that slander spread?”The Goddess of Beauty understood, but with a stage lacking a performer, the audience’s mood would be ruined. She glanced at her companions and at her disciple.“Goddess Medist… Explain everything in detail. I will take care of my own matters.”Goddess Medist began recounting, one by one, the issues surrounding the slander against them. It all started with Bintang’s father’s order, asking them to gain experience across the nations of the continent.In short, while they were away and unaware of anything, they suddenly heard that the Dragon King had died—and that they could not return because they were implicated in a rebellion carried out by the three Ancient Families.“Master, I still don’t understand…”“We were implicated, we were framed, because five women disguised themselves as us. They signed a rebellion agreement in the past at the Blue Dragon Palace. With the Drag

“Alright…” Though still not fully convinced, Bagas could only hope now. Every plan had to proceed smoothly.As his gaze drifted toward the townspeople going about their activities—“Just like any ordinary city…”“What the Young Master says is true… But once you enter the mayor’s family territory, you’ll understand something,” Bagas added at length.Hearing that, Bintang grew even more curious. Was the ruler of Boma City really that terrifying?Bruuuk!In the middle of their walk, a girl suddenly crashed into Bintang, her head burying itself in his broad chest.“I—!” The girl immediately realized her mistake.Zidane grew angry and was about to pull away the raggedly dressed girl, but Bintang stopped him.“Those eyes… they’re filled with trauma,” he murmured, staring closely into her pupils.The girl was about to scream.“Y-you must be assassins sent by the mayor, right? D-don’t—!”“What are you talking about?” Bagas narrowed his eyes.Jleeeeb!Not wanting to cause further trouble, Bint

“Ruler, greed is not good… And consuming pills excessively—”“What do you know about pills? Just carry out my order. Perhaps I might lift the threat hanging over you…”Bagas stared intently at the masked man. Hope for his parents’ freedom flickered in his eyes. But Bintang’s gaze was different.In his view, something was hidden behind Baim’s expression.The two of them left the residence and soon arrived at a fairly luxurious restaurant.“Young Master… please, give Baim as many pills as necessary for my parents’ freedom. My brother and I will protect you with our lives…”“That matter doesn’t need to be discussed. Whatever the Young Master does has already benefited you—and everyone he intends to protect,” Zidane said as he entered the private dining room after completing his task.“B-but the security there is extremely tight… How will you free our parents?” Bagas could not suppress his curiosity.Zidane glanced at Bintang. But Bintang had already removed his mask. Calmly, he replied,

“Hah… It’s been a while since I last came here. And yet you still recognize me?” Baim smiled faintly.“My lord, I will always remember your face…” The shop attendant turned her face aside, then shot a sharp look at Kiana.“You—take off that outfit immediately. That dress now belongs to the City Lord!” she barked.Kiana’s expression shifted slightly into fear. She did not remove the dress; instead, she hid behind her teacher’s body.Seeing that reaction, Bintang gave a cold smile.“I was the one who got this dress first. I can pay for it too. Why should I hand it over to him?”The attendant’s face darkened. So did Baim’s. But the girl standing beside Baim quickly spoke up.“Darling, it seems he doesn’t realize how kind you are to others…”“What the City Lord’s tenth girlfriend says must be obeyed. Young man, I know you can pay for it… but life is more important,” she warned subtly.“Hehehe… You think I’m afraid? Just swipe the card. Add whatever tip you want,” Bintang said casually.Ba

With a cold sneer, Bintang turned his gaze toward the attendant.“Still not going to swipe the card?” he asked, raising one eyebrow.“Y-Yes, Young Master…” The attendant did not dare resist. Even Baim’s three guards had fallen—there was no way she could continue following the City Lord’s orders.Baim, seeing this, could only clench his jaw.But he quickly realized that staying longer on the third floor might put him in even greater danger.“I will remember everything you’ve done today… Mark my words—none of you will be able to leave Juanda Province!” he threatened before storming out of the third floor.A few moments later—Tiiiiit! Tiiiiit!The EDC machine kept beeping, signaling that all of Bintang’s payments had gone through successfully.“W-who is that young man? He bought so many clothes for all the women around him… Is he really that rich?!”‘If only I were his girlfriend…’The women shopping on the third floor could only whisper among themselves, their jealousy barely concealed

The comments of the townspeople who saw Bintang being dragged away quickly spread. The commotion briefly shook the entire city of Boma.Inside Baim’s residence—“Young man, don’t you know? From the moment you first stood here, I already wanted to execute you.” Baim smiled cynically.Bintang looked at him with calm eyes.“Do you really think you’ve already won this game?”“I am the ruler. Who can possibly help you? The provincial governor? Even he is nothing more than my obedient dog! Hahahahaha!”Bintang gave a faint smile, showing no intention of resisting.“A game? Did I hear you wrong? First, you injured my hand!” Baim showed his bandaged hand.“Second… your girlfriend made me lose face! And you call this a game? Do you even have any real identity? Aren’t you just a shameless little physician trying to seize my seat of power?” he sneered again.“Hahahahahaha?!” Bintang burst into laughter. To him, Baim’s words were nothing but a joke.“What are you laughing at? Don’t you know that

Baim realized his mistake. Cornered now, he staggered backward, his body trembling slightly.“W-What are you trying to do?!”“After committing crimes to this extent, what punishment do you all think I should give him?”“Death…” All members of the Sky Dragon Alliance answered coldly in unison.Swallowing hard, Baim tried to find a chance to escape. But his steps halted as more members of the Sky Dragon Alliance tightened the circle around him.“Y-you all…”“Capture him,” Bintang ordered again.After binding Baim securely, Bintang turned to the martial artists who stood frozen in place.“All of you were merely used and threatened into obeying the City Lord of Boma. So your punishment is this—join my Sky Dragon Alliance as a way to atone for your sins. But I will not force you.”Bintang and his group began walking out of the hall.But just as he was about to leave, two swift shadows suddenly shot down from the rooftop. They landed in front of Bintang, their swords already drawn.Their sp
