Leo Vance led his mercenary strike force through the narrow, overgrown canyon path leading straight to Tuntadel's eastern sector. Behind him marched fifty heavily armored mercenaries and a pack of snarling, unleashed rogue beasts. "Keep moving!" Leo whispered sharply, checking his glowing locator device. "Kate's route is dead accurate! The eastern barrier’s secondary grid is down, and the patrol rotation won't hit this zone for another ten minutes! We slip inside, slaughter the Tradition guards, and open the gate for my father!" "Are you sure about this, Leo?" his second-in-command muttered, gripping his heavy iron hammer nervously. "If Professor Alex catches us in this tight pass—" "Shut up!" Leo snapped, his eyes gleaming with arrogant greed. "Alex is busy on the main field! By the time anyone notices us, Tuntadel will be burning from the inside!" They broke through the tree line, pouring onto the stone floor of the eastern quad. Leo grinned, stepping into the open court with his

Inside the shattered Healers’ sanctuary, smoke and dust filled the air.Doctor Isabella leaned against the stone wall, bleeding from her arm, while terrified student healers cowered behind her. The Syndicate commander raised his heavy dark-energy cannon, leveling the barrel straight at Doctor Isabella's heart."Any last words, Healer?" the commander sneered, dark energy humming at the tip of the gun. "Say goodbye to your little sanctuary.""No!" Juliana screamed from the floor.Tucker lay on his knees, his body trembling violently. Golden lightning flickered weakly around his chest as molecular destabilization tore through his muscles. He was out of breath, his vision blurring.If I push past my limit again... I might die, Tucker thought, staring at the commander's finger tightening on the trigger. But if I don't... everyone dies right now!"FORCE BREAK!" Tucker roared!ZAAAAAP!Ignoring the agonizing pain in his veins, Tucker transformed into a blinding streak of raw kinetic lightnin

At that moment, two enforcers escorted Kate out of the comms tower in heavy suppression chains. Her head was bowed, tears streaming down her dirty cheeks. As she passed by the Tradition fighters, her eyes briefly met Baron's.Baron stood silently beside John and Ayomide, his arms crossed, his face expressionless."Baron..." Kate choked out softly, stopping for a fraction of a second. "I'm... I'm so sorry..."Baron didn't say a word. He simply turned his back on her.Commander Dustin nudged her forward gently toward the transport van. "Keep moving, girl. Not even noble bloodlines or sweet apologies can protect traitors from federal justice. You made your choice."tightly in his fist as a dark, cold shadow fell over the room.The heavy iron doors of the transport trucks slammed shut one after another, locking away the defeated Vance family, their hired mercenaries, and the corrupt cabal leaders. With a roar of heavy engines, the convoy pulled away, kicking up clouds of dust as they esco

Chapter 206 has been edited and will be updated tomorrow.John stepped forward, blue cosmic fire swirling softly around his palm. "Cosmic fire consumes evil, but it redeems those who seek the light. Welcome home, Caleb."At the edge of the circle, Tucker gave a weak thumbs-up, leaning against his crutch with a grin. "Hey, you moved fast in the wrong direction for a while, man. But speed doesn't matter if you aren't going the right way. Now you're walking with us again. That's all that counts."Caleb wiped the tears from his eyes, his heart overflowing with overwhelming gratitude. "Thank you... thank you all. I swear on my life, I will never let any of you down again."After a round of emotional handshakes and warm embraces, Uncle Richard gently patted Caleb's back."Come on, son," Uncle Richard said. "Let's head home to the estate so you can rest and fully recover."Caleb looked back at his friends one last time, waving with a genuine, peaceful smile before turning to walk toward the

Dean Lashley turned on his heel without another word, leading the way toward the central administrative tower. Behind him marched Lord Jordan Rockwood, flanked by James, Maya, and Loveth. Their polished designer footwear clicked sharply against the quiet marble floor of the hallway. The air inside the tower was tense, suffocating, and heavy with unspoken anger. They reached the top floor, and Lashley pushed open the heavy oak doors to his private office. He stepped inside and stood behind his wide mahogany desk, placing his palms flat on the wood. The Rockwood family casually strolled inside, making themselves right at home with infuriating arrogance. James leaned casually against a tall bookshelf, inspecting his manicured fingernails with an arrogant smirk. Maya slouched heavily into a fine leather armchair, tossing her legs over the armrest while twirling her pink lollipop in her mouth. Loveth stood near the wide glass window, overlooking the ruined courtyard with cold, calculat
