Six months later. Adam had fully recovered, today was the first day he stood by himself. His legs perfectly healed like they had never been damaged before.

Stacey walked into his room.

"Lord Adam, the car is ready." She announced.

"I will take my shower now." He replied authoritatively and she left to make other arrangements.

Today was no ordinary day, it was recorded as the biggest celebration in the world. The return of the Supreme General, all the Military personnel of the country, the Army, the Navy, the Air Force and the Special Force will all be present to welcome the return of the God of war.

All high prestigious men and women will also be present including all government officials and also presidents from other countries like Russia, USA and China. Adam was a National treasure, his life was as important as the president of the country.

His name alone trembled nations, he has single handedly taken down an entire enemy fleet. For his service the Government paid hundred billion dollars monthly into his account making him worth Trillions. He's one of the three people in the world who owned that much money, even though the others are based on their company and shares, and Adam's wealth was his only. Ray City was also given to him as a gift, he's like a king, he could decide life and death.

Adam, and Stacey drove in the same car meanwhile they were escorted with 1000 Rolls Royce Phantom VIII Armored vehicles. Today was considered a national public holiday, so the road was cleared enough for all the cars. The Banquet was held in the Presidential Villa, which was spacious enough for the many guests.

Many reporters stood in a line, but there were thousands of security guards present to contain the crowd. Adam's car stopped, Stacey came out first, she was beautiful with her hourglass shape that fits in her black leather dress. She opened the other part of the car as Adam stepped out.

Many pictures were taken at the same time but none could get a clear view of his face.

He was donned in a silver suit that was made with Vicuña wool, the most expensive wool in the world and its buttons made from pure diamond. He was also wearing a Rolex. His presence was majestic and all the female invitees could do anything to make him theirs.

Before he could make a step further, the four great Generals of Coastal Flair matched up to him, each wearing the most expensive things the brands could make.

General Kael Woods, Commander of the Eastern Forces. General Thane Blackwood Western Forces Commander. General Arin Vex, The Commander of the Southern Forces, and lastly General Liam Gore, Commander of the Northern Forces. All powerful men who could single handedly take down thousands of Men. Each General has one million soldiers as their special ally, a single General could wage war against a country.

The Generals bowed in unison. "Welcome Supreme General." They declared.

Like a wave the gesture rippled through the ranks of the soldiers present. Thousands of soldiers dropped to one knee, their heads bowed in reverence. "Hail the Supreme General!" Their voices echoed throughout the City.

The four Generals stood up and escorted Adam to the entrance of the Mansion. The President hurriedly came to Adam, he stretched hands to shake with him. "Mr. Manchester, I am so grateful you are back, you put the entire country in panic after you went missing."

"Thank you President Ryan, for this large banquet."

"This isn't even enough to welcome the most important person in the country."

Adam walked into the Banquet, there were at least 10 most important people from each country of the world, ten of each meal from different tribes from over the World were displayed on the enormously long table. None of Coastal Flair's so-called company owners had the privilege to be invited, except Jinhoo Lee, the CEO of Bulgart Industry, the biggest industry in the country and the World in general.

    Trent narrowed his eyes at Adam, lips curling into a smug grin.“I’ll admit,” he said mockingly, “I didn’t expect a country bumpkin like you to even know Mr. Zarholt’s name. Color me surprised.”He gave a dramatic pause, letting the tension simmer before continuing with feigned grandeur.“Yes—Mr. Zarholt is the wealthiest man in Storm City. A true titan. A man whose signature can shift markets overnight. And guess what? After you ruined my grandfather’s birthday with your little scene, I decided to make it right.”He straightened his jacket and raised his chin.“I’m hosting a make-up dinner at Hollow Reach Hotel.”Gasps and murmurs rippled through the room.Gerald, who had been watching the exchange with barely disguised curiosity, cleared his throat. “Trent, that’s... generous. But maybe we should pick a more reasonable venue. I’ve heard the prices at Hollow Reach are... insane.”Trent didn’t even blink. He let out a laugh, cool and calculated.“You’re right. It is expensive. That’s

    “Exactly.” Brielle tossed her hair back with a smirk. “This world isn’t about fighting and killing anymore. It’s about power—real power. Money. Status. Mr. Iron could burn through millions in a minute and not even blink.”She crossed her arms and tilted her chin smugly toward Adam.“But you?” Her voice dripped with scorn. “What can you do? Be a bodyguard? Pull in, what, twenty grand a month on a good day? That’s barely enough to buy the strap of one of my designer bags. Pathetic.”She scoffed, her laughter mocking. “You’re not a man—you’re a joke in last season’s shoes.”Adam’s gaze didn’t flinch. His voice was low, steady—deadly calm.“You talk like wealth makes you someone.” He took a step forward. “But all I see is someone desperately trying to matter.”Brielle’s face twisted, but before she could respond, Trent stepped in, fire in his eyes.“Enough.” He slapped a gold card on the table with theatrical flair. “Adam, who’s trash isn’t decided by cheap insults. This—” he jabbed a fin

    Adam wasn’t surprised.Selena operated in the shadows, always alone, always quiet. She was slippery—an eel in murky waters. If she didn’t want to be found, even the best in his network would struggle. She was talented, strategic, and utterly ruthless.Far more dangerous than Vanguard Ghost or the Elder.Adam wasn’t worried about himself. The threat wasn’t to him—it was to the people around him. The people she could reach. The ones he couldn’t shield every second of the day.This time, Vanguard Ghost had aimed precisely at Adam’s weak spot. And Adam had been forced to stand by, fists clenched, as his enemy escaped unscathed.That bitter humiliation still burned behind his calm expression.---Later that evening, Adam returned to the Armand estate.The moment he stepped through the door, the tension in the air hit him like a wall. Eleanor’s voice rang out before he could even take off his shoes.“Adam, how dare you show your face here after what happened today?”Her tone was sharp, veno

    Tessa stood frozen, the words echoing in her ears like a thunderclap.Devote yourself to me.She’d never imagined the Supreme General would make such a demand—especially not to her. The blood drained from her face, and for a second, she couldn’t breathe. Her heart pounded as she tried to make sense of it.“I… I’m flattered by your favor, Supreme General,” she said, forcing the words past her tightening throat, “but I’m already married. I cannot accept this.”Her voice shook slightly despite her effort to sound composed.Countless women dreamed of catching the attention of the Supreme General. Being even a mistress to such a man meant wealth, power, influence—an unshakable position at the top of society. A flicker of that thought crossed her mind, uninvited. She imagined what it would mean to be his, to walk beside a man feared by nations.For a heartbeat, it thrilled her.But she pushed the thought aside.No matter how lofty the offer, she wasn’t the type to be bought. Her pride would

    Adam didn’t move to free Tessa immediately. He stood in front of the trembling men, his gaze sharp and merciless.“Take your own lives as atonement,” he said, his voice devoid of any warmth.There was no hesitation. The masked men knew who he was. They had heard the stories, the whispered nightmares about the Supreme General. What he did to those who crossed him. Suicide wasn’t surrender—it was mercy.Without a word, one by one, they lifted their blades to their throats. The dull scrape of steel against skin was followed by wet, sickening sounds as blood poured freely. Bodies dropped in succession, lifeless and still.Not one screamed. Not one begged.Adam turned away without so much as a glance, as though their deaths were nothing more than a formality.He stepped toward Tessa, crouched before her, and peeled the duct tape off her lips with surprising care. Then he cut the ropes binding her wrists and ankles with one fluid motion.Tessa’s breath caught as she tore off the blindfold.

    The moment the men in black saw the man's face clearly, their expressions shattered.Pupils shrank. Breath caught in their throats. It was as if Death himself had stepped into the room.Their limbs went cold. Knees buckled. Fingers twitched uncontrollably on the grips of their weapons.Their instincts screamed louder than any command ever had: Run.But it was already too late.Even Hagon—brutal, seasoned, and merciless—felt his composure slipping like sand through his fingers. Still, he forced his spine to stay straight, jaw clenched tight.But the dagger in his hand wavered.With a last breath of false courage, he lunged forward and grabbed Tessa, yanking her upright. His blade pressed tightly against the side of her neck, biting into skin. A thin red line formed beneath the pressure.“Don’t take another step!” he shouted hoarsely, voice cracking with strain. “I’ll do it! I’ll kill her right here!”The other masked men scrambled to mimic him, pressing trembling swords and daggers aga
