“How dare this man slap the Matriarch of the Odias, twice?”

“Isn't he their trash son-in-law?”

“He's going to be in so much trouble!”

“Ha! I guess the rich aren't so strong, he couldn't even lay a finger on that stray dog.”

The conversations from the onlookers continue.

Adam stood over them, calm and unmoved. “You two need to learn something. You don’t threaten me.”

Robin lay on the pavement, writhing in pain. Monica crouched beside him, both of them too stunned to say anything more.

“I'll make you regret this, Adam. I swear with my life!” Robin roared.

Adam adjusted his coat and gave them a last, dismissive glance. “Next time, don’t bite off more than you can chew.”

Without another word, he turned and walked away, leaving them in the dust, broken and humiliated under the weight of their own arrogance.

In the Odia family’s expansive sitting room, the atmosphere was one of quiet luxury. Mr. Luther sat in his favorite leather chair, nursing a glass of whiskey. Rhea, lounged acros

    “How are you going to help me?” Marcus let out a bitter snicker, his gaze dropping to the blanket that covered his lower body. “What—are you going to fix my legs?”His sarcasm was thick with despair.In truth, he had already explored every possible option. He had considered having his legs reattached, clinging to that sliver of hope in the early days after the duel. But the doctors had delivered a cruel verdict—there was extensive tissue necrosis around the stumps, and even parts of his thighs had been irreversibly damaged. Reattachment was impossible.The cause of the damage haunted him.It wasn’t ordinary divine energy that had destroyed his body—it was Adam Manchester’s spiritual energy. Spiritual energy was on an entirely different level, far more destructive than divine energy. If divine energy was like diesel fuel, then spiritual energy was aviation fuel—volatile, explosive, and merciless.Worse still, Adam’s spiritual energy was a terrifying composite of active and passive forc

    Romeo’s eyes hardened as killing intent surged through him when he voiced that suggestion. The casual way he said it sent a chill through the air. For a brief moment, the cramped room fell silent.Dracula frowned deeply, his fingers tapping against the table as he weighed the consequences.“Joining forces to kill him isn’t the issue,” he said slowly. “But Adam Manchester is now the future son-in-law of the Sanders family. If they find out we’re responsible, we won’t just be in trouble—we’ll be erased.”Romeo fell silent at those words.Everyone in the room understood what the Sanders family represented. Their influence spanned continents, their power rooted not only in wealth but also in terrifying martial strength. Romeo’s Redblood Organization and Dracula’s Deadskull Organization might rule the underworld, but in front of the Sanders family, they were nothing more than ants begging not to be crushed.Selena, who had been leaning against the wall with her arms crossed, suddenly spoke

    Dante and Ese had also placed a staggering bet of one billion dollars—not because they were fully confident in Adam’s victory, but as a gesture of loyalty and support. Even in their doubts, they chose to stand with him.Now, that decision nearly cost the bookmaker his sanity.The moment he saw Adam and the others approaching, the bookmaker’s face twisted into an expression uglier than a storm cloud. Earlier, he had been all smiles, practically glowing when they placed their bets. In his eyes, they had been nothing more than rich fools throwing money away. Never in his wildest dreams had he imagined that Adam would utterly dominate Flynn York.Beat him with ease.Humiliate him.Almost kill him.Each step Adam took toward the stall felt like another nail hammered into the bookmaker’s coffin.With trembling hands and a stiff smile that looked more like a grimace, the bookmaker began settling the accounts.Adam, who had placed 630 million dollars on himself, received a payout of 945 milli

    Bradley’s eyes burned with frost as he fixed his gaze on Bruce.“Bruce Sanders,” he said coldly, his voice dripping with hostility, “this is none of your business. Stay out of it.”“Stay out of it?” Bruce let out a sharp snort, stepping forward half a pace. “Are you calling me a busybody?” His tone hardened. “That young man is my future son-in-law. How could I stand by and do nothing when you were about to kill him?”Bruce swept a glance across the stunned crowd before continuing, his voice ringing clearly.“More importantly, your son challenged Adam to a duel—one-on-one, life and death. Everyone here witnessed it. According to the rules, no one is allowed to interfere. Yet you shamelessly barged in, saved your son, and even tried to assassinate Adam. Aren’t you afraid of becoming the laughingstock of Cosmo Island?”A murmur rippled through the spectators.Many nodded silently, their expressions conflicted but clear. Flynn had indeed initiated the duel, and Adam had already gained the

    Flynn sucked in a sharp breath, his eyes wide with shock and disbelief. For a split second, fear flickered across his face—but it was quickly swallowed by humiliation and rage.“Let go!” he roared.He frantically circulated his divine energy, pouring it into his arm and sword, trying to wrench the blade free from Adam’s fingers and slice him apart in one furious motion.At that very instant, Adam’s fingers trembled ever so slightly.A terrifying vibration surged through the blade, traveling like a violent current straight into Flynn’s palm.Crack!A muffled snap rang out.Flynn screamed as blood burst from his hand. The sword slipped from his grip, clattering uselessly as his injured palm throbbed violently. Before he could even react, Adam casually grabbed the blade by its hilt and flung it back toward him.The sword whistled through the air like a streak of silver lightning.Flynn’s pupils shrank in terror. He instinctively leapt backward, narrowly avoiding a fatal strike. The blade

    Bruce replied after a brief pause, his gaze fixed firmly on the battlefield.“I can’t say for certain who will win yet,” he said slowly, “but one thing is clear—Adam’s speed surpasses Flynn’s by a noticeable margin. Even if he can’t defeat Flynn outright, he’s already proven himself to be a truly formidable opponent.”His words did little to soothe Leah’s nerves.This was not a friendly spar or a test of skill—it was a life-and-death duel. Even if the two men were evenly matched, a single mistake could cost Adam his life. Leah’s heart pounded violently in her chest as she watched every exchange, afraid to even blink.Two full minutes passed.In that short span of time, hundreds of moves had already been exchanged.Yet Flynn York—one of the most celebrated geniuses of the younger generation—had not landed a single blow on Adam.Even more astonishing was Adam’s attitude throughout the fight. He hadn’t counterattacked once. He hadn’t even drawn his sword.He simply moved.Step by step, b
