Arion returned to his room, but tonight, he felt an unusual unease in the air, as if something out of the ordinary was about to happen. So, he decided not to enter the Demon Sealing Sword for his usual training.

His inner sight, capable of perceiving everything around him, instinctively scanned the rooms of the two women. His brows furrowed. Olafia was still deeply engrossed in studying the two books he had given her, while Nadine was curled up, clutching her stomach with both hands, her face contorted in pain.

“Hmm? Is Nadine not feeling well?”

After examining more closely, Arion sighed in mild relief. It turned out Nadine’s pain was simply due to menstruation.

Seeing her discomfort, Arion took wide, hurried strides toward Nadine’s room, so fast he completely forgot to knock.

“Damn it!”

Before he could say anything, Nadine’s hand flew across his cheek with a sharp slap! Caught off guard, Arion froze, yet the moment he saw Nadine’s face, his irritation vanished.

At that moment, Nadine

    “Where are you taking me?” he asked, gripping the car door handle tightly as the car roared forward.He began to wonder if Sandra’s car ran on gasoline, or pure alcohol, judging by the way she was driving like a madwoman.“Relax. I’m taking you to see your lovely lady,” she said with a smirk, eyes fixed on the road. “Nadine, the woman who actually sees you, this scoundrel, as something precious.”Arion blinked, confused. He didn’t know Clarissa that well. Was it really fine to have so many people suddenly staying at her place? How big was her house anyway?Meanwhile, in Paul’s underground casino, business was booming as usual. Crowds filled the smoky hall, laughter and cheers echoing from every table.But suddenly, the sound of shattering glass thundered through the room. Paul burst out of his office, alarmed.“What the hell happened?” he muttered, his instincts screaming that only someone truly bold would dare cause trouble here.He immediately grew alert. He had known all along that

    “So here’s the thing… I once learned a few martial arts moves from an old man in the village. Every time I manage to survive danger, it’s thanks to those skills,” Arion said with a casual smile. Sandra snorted, clearly unconvinced. “Really? You think I’m going to believe that nonsense?” Arion just shrugged, not bothering to argue. “See? I told you, you wouldn’t believe me.” Sandra folded her arms across her chest, her gaze sharp as a blade. “These four men all have gunshot wounds. Do you think I’m blind?” Arion remained calm, as if he had anticipated the question. “Actually, there were five of them. Four here were already weakened, and the last one… he killed them. I just took the opportunity and struck when he was off guard. The rest… you can see for yourself.” Without hesitation, Arion pointed out the location where the fifth man had fallen. Sandra fell silent for a moment, her expression pensive, as if she was starting to consider that Arion might not be entirely lying. “Chec

    “What did they go through before dying?” Sandra wondered silently.There was no time to dwell. She quickly ordered her team to secure the scene, then approached Nadine with concern. “Nadine, are you all right?”Nadine shook her head faintly, regret shadowing her eyes.Sandra, usually cool and composed, softened her tone, perhaps because of her friendship with Nadine. She even turned to Olafia kindly. “Don’t worry. We’ll keep you both safe,” she assured.“Thank you… I’m all right,” Olafia replied, her voice steadier now though still trembling.“Olafia, your house is a disaster, it’s not safe to stay here. The station has a staff residence. I can arrange two rooms for you,” Sandra offered thoughtfully.Nadine shook her head gently. “Sandra, you have work to do here. Don’t worry about us. I’ll take Olafia to Clarissa’s place.”“All right,” Sandra agreed, signaling two officers. “I’ll have my men escort you.”But before they could move, Arion interjected, “That won’t be necessary. I’ll ta

    Being a hired killer was like living on the edge of danger, gambling one’s life with every mission. Their senses were far sharper than those of ordinary people. And in this brief but brutal clash, the assassin knew without a doubt, he was no match for Arion.After unleashing three successive strikes, he made a split-second decision to flee without hesitation.“Trying to run now? Too late!” Arion’s cold voice echoed through the air, freezing the assassin mid-step.But Arion himself had reached his limit. Chasing with physical strength alone was impossible. So, he called for his ally. “Nara, it’s your turn now.”“Leave it to me, Master,” Nara’s calm voice replied.In an instant, Arion felt a sharp chill sweep past his forehead, Nara had emerged from the Demon-Sealing Sword.A silver light flashed through the darkness, followed by a cold voice: “Stop!”Nara appeared in midair, her arms spread wide, blocking the assassin’s escape route. She descended gracefully, like a celestial goddess s

    “You were sent by Matius Winzy, weren’t you?” His voice cut through the air like a blade.“Tch, do you really think you can make us talk?” one of the assassins sneered. Their contemptuous eyes gleamed in the dim light.Arion’s lips curved into a faint smile. “You’ll find out soon enough.” His gaze drifted toward their wounds.Realization flashed too late in their eyes.“You think a few scratches will stop us? Foolish boy!” one of them barked. But even as he spoke, his voice trembled.Because suddenly, they couldn’t move. Their limbs stiffened, energy draining out of them as if being sucked away from within.“What… what have you done to us?” one of them gasped, his voice shaking with disbelief.Arion’s smirk widened, his tone laced with ice. “Even now, you still have time to talk?”Their confidence collapsed into raw terror. Their bodies weakened rapidly, collapsing like puppets with cut strings.“If you want this to end quickly,” Arion said coldly, “tell me what I want to know.”Panic
