Albert then went to the dining room, where the women who cared for the orphanage children were already seated neatly in their respective chairs.Nik and William were still standing, feeling awkward about sitting with the women. Especially Nik, who had never been in a romantic relationship because he was focused on protecting the Arleta family as one of the chosen guardian family members.“Why are you two still standing? Come on, sit down and eat with us,” Albert chided as he casually sat beside Aurora.William was about to sit down, but Nik stopped him and said, “Sir, we are not worthy of sitting on the same level as you.”Albert frowned. “What are you talking about? I’m not a narrow-minded person. What’s wrong with eating together? Hurry up and sit down!” he ordered, his voice rising slightly.“Y-Yes, Sir,” Nik replied obediently, motioning for William to sit there as well.Albert then turned to the side. He smiled at Aurora and

Lima’s body suddenly felt weak, his face instantly turned deathly pale, and he fell to the ground with an extremely obvious look of fear.“You-Y-you... monster....” Lima’s voice trembled, unable to believe he would encounter such a terrifying figure like Albert.“Be a good person in your next life,” Albert said, and in the next instant he was already in front of Lima and swung his punch.Pral!Lima’s body shattered into dust. Not even a single drop of blood splattered; it vanished instantly, swept away by the wind.Albert’s attack had just manipulated dimensional space, making Lima’s body unable to withstand it and collapse.Albert closed his eyes and opened them again, and time immediately resumed moving. Calmly, he dusted off his hands as if Lima had been nothing more than dirt on his palms.Nik and the others were confused about what had happened, because Lima had suddenly disappeared, and Nik could no longer feel the man’s aura.“Nik, I’m leaving for a moment. Take good care of th

The death of the second young master Ergas immediately caused an uproar throughout western Anarka, especially in Gemstone City.Of course, everyone was curious about what had happened—why had the person who was expected to become the next leader of the Ergas family suddenly died?In a café, three young men could be seen sitting together, enjoying their orders."After such a long time, someone has finally dared to cross the Ergas family," said the young man with a blond buzz cut."Watch your mouth. Do you want to be dragged into the Ergas family’s underground prison?!" his companion scolded, adjusting the glasses he was wearing.The dark-skinned young man let out a soft sigh and said, "The death of the second young master, I’m sure, will make Gemstone City a little more peaceful."The blond-haired young man nodded in agreement. "Although the first young master of the Ergas family is also annoying, he still has sympathy and cares about people like us. At least there won’t be any more ar

Albert and Aurora arrived at Gem Tower after dark, and the place looked quite lively. That was because it was indeed a favorite spot for couples on dates.Gem Tower occupied a fairly large area. Around the tower, there was a well-maintained park, and there were even snack stalls provided for both local and out-of-town tourists so they would feel more comfortable staying there.Not only that, but at the top of Gem Tower there were ordinary telescopes as well as star telescopes for enjoying the beauty of the sky and the city of Gem from there.Albert and Aurora had already reached the top of Gem Tower. Aurora, who was there for the first time, looked excited as she approached the star telescope."Albert, come here! I found a really beautiful star," Aurora called out enthusiastically.Albert, who had come there to make Aurora happy, walked over. He looked up at the sky and said, "SIRIUS (the Dog Star) is indeed very beautiful when viewed on

After a brief silence, whispers spread among the Ernix family. They were confused about what had actually happened and who Madam Agung’s husband really was, to dare kill the next candidate to lead the Ergas family.The curious Rahardian immediately asked, “Madam Agung, you’re not joking, are you?”Rini frowned before answering. “Why would I joke? It’s only the Ergas family. What is there to fear if my husband has already taken action?”One of the elders stepped forward and spoke. “Madam Agung, this is a very serious matter. Don’t confuse us.”Rahardian quickly added, “The elder is right. No matter what, the Ergas family’s power is deeply rooted in the western region. We cannot underestimate them.”All the Ernix family members present agreed with Rahardian’s statement and the elder’s words. However, Yudistira and Galuh suddenly chuckled softly, causing them all to glare at the father and son.Noticing this, Yudistira immediately stepped on Galuh’s foot, causing his son to instantly fal
