"Move it! Don't be like dead turtles!" Isabella shouted, her voice echoing throughout the Sector Four training facility of Nova Vexley. "If you're slow, the enemy's bullets will speed you up!"The midday sun baked the black asphalt beneath the elite soldiers' boots. Isabella stood on the iron catwalk suspended five meters above the field. She wore a military green tank top soaked in sweat, tight cargo pants, and held a stopwatch."Sergeant Marco, report status!" Isabella shouted, leaning over the railing.Below, Sergeant Marco, a muscular former marine, raised an RPG-7 rocket launcher that had been modified with technology from Arthur's armory."Anti-tank weapon ready for testing, Commander!" Marco replied firmly."Good. Aim for the titanium steel door at the far end. Fire on my mark," Isabella ordered. She raised her hand. "Three... two... one... Fire!"Marco pulled the trigger.CLICK. HISSSS.Not the sound of a launching rock

The two one-hundred-percent identical voices blended into one terrifying echo inside the bunker illuminated by red emergency lights. Sweat dripped from the temples of both Mei Lins, while their sword blades were still locked together with equal force.David Vexley stepped forward. His purple-glowing eyes scanned them both."Put your weapons down," David commanded. This time, he injected King's Command into his voice.An invisible aura hit the two women. They couldn't resist the absolute decree. Their grips loosened, and the twin swords of both Mei Lins fell clattering onto the concrete floor. CLANG!David walked around them both with slow steps, like a predator circling its prey."If I ask what secret we talked about last night, both of you will answer correctly. If I ask about your childhood, Leviathan can guess it from the short-term memories he just copied," David said flatly. He began to unbutton his shirt one by one, revealing his tense chest

The Karambit knife plunged downward, targeting baby Arthur's chest with the precision of a professional assassin.CLANG!David Vexley's hand shot out faster than lightning, parrying Isabella's wrist right before the sharp blade touched his son's blanket. With one rough twist, David wrenched Isabella's arm, forcing her to drop the weapon, then slammed her hard onto the concrete floor."Forgive me, Bell," David hissed, pressing his knee into the woman's back to pin her down."Run... Boss... kill me..." Isabella struggled with a wild strength that wasn't hers at all. Her white eyes stared blankly at the ceiling, tears flowing continuously.Chaos erupted in the room. Elena screamed and immediately picked up Arthur, running away to the corner of the bunker. Mei Lin and Victoria quickly approached with weapons drawn."Is she possessed by a demon?!" Victoria shrieked in horror, seeing the veins in Isabella's neck bulging black."Not a ghost.

The midday sun felt scorching as David Vexley stepped out of the bunker's steel door alone, walking through the streets of Nova Vexley, which was now completely dead. Without electricity, the futuristic island city looked like a silent graveyard of glass and steel. David kept walking toward the main port, his eyes burning with cosmic anger held back behind his chest.In front of him, a blinding sight awaited. A giant cargo ship with a hull of pure gold had crushed the concrete pier. Thousands of mercenaries in gold armor had lined up neatly forming a long corridor, holding assault rifles also plated in precious metal. This disgusting luxury was an arrogant declaration of war.At the end of that human corridor, the Demon Merchant descended from the ship's bridge.Mammon took the form of an incredibly obese middle-aged man. His three-piece suit was literally woven from pure gold threads that dazzled under the tropical sun. On his ten sausage-like fingers, giant diamond rings of various

The silence in the security room felt heavy after David dropped his offer. The glob of green slime on the floor vibrated, boiled, and then slowly rose against gravity.The slime changed color, forming bone structure, muscle tissue, and skin. In seconds, the amorphous creature transformed into a naked woman that made everyone in the room catch their breath.She was the embodiment of the Perfect Woman.Her hair was straight black and long like Elena's, with the sharp green eyes of Isabella, the muscular long legs and upright posture of Mei Lin. There was even a hint of Victoria's haughty curve of the lips. She was the best physical combination of all the women surrounding the Avatar."Do you think," the woman's voice flowed melodiously, a harmonious blend of all of David's wives' voices, "that one night is enough to pay for my envy that has accumulated for centuries, David?""One night with me," David answered flatly, not blinking at the physical per
