The beast attacked as one.

Miles barely dodged the first bite, rolled beneath snapping jaws of the second, and raised his arm to block the third—

Crunch.

Pain lanced through him as fangs scraped bone but the wound healed quickly. Miles was amused but he didn't have time to relish in that though as the beast was charging at him again.

He roared, countering with a kick infused with demonic force. The impact sent one head reeling with a fractured whine.

The other two struck at once.

    CHAPTER 27 — THE HIDDEN STRENGTHMiles found himself sitting inside another interrogation room.It was almost ironic that he had ended up in another room like this so soon after being released from the one inside the Knights Guild, although the circumstances were completely different this time. He had been brought directly to the Hunter Association headquarters after Charlotte and her agents took him into custody, and for nearly two hours he had remained seated in the same chair with restriction cuffs secured around his wrists.The door finally opened.Charlotte Harris walked into the room carrying a black folder beneath one arm before taking the seat opposite Miles and placing the folder on the table between them.For several seconds, she simply looked at him.She had spent the entire journey back to the Association trying to make sense of the situation, yet seeing Miles sitting quietly before her made the circumstances even harder to understand. This young man looked nothing like so

    Just as Miles prepared to continue his relentless assault, a powerful surge of mana suddenly exploded between him and Darius. BOOM! A violent shockwave rippled across the executive floor, blasting chunks of shattered concrete and twisted steel in every direction. Dust filled the air as the overwhelming pressure forced both combatants to halt their movements instinctively. A figure descended from above. She landed gracefully between them. The fractured floor beneath her feet cracked from the impact, thin fissures spreading across the marble like a spider's web. A faint wave of mana rolled outward from her body, carrying an oppressive authority that immediately distinguished her from every hunter who had appeared before. Charlotte Harris. Director of the Hunter Association. The silver insignia embroidered on her long navy coat fluttered gently as the dust settled around her. She stood perfectly upright, one hand resting calmly on the hilt of her sword, her posture composed despi

    The upper floors of the Knights Guild Headquarters had become almost unrecognizable. Massive sections of reinforced concrete hung precariously over the city, twisted steel beams protruded from shattered walls, and thick clouds of dust drifted through the night sky as emergency sirens echoed from the streets below. Every tremor that rippled through the building reminded the surviving hunters that the headquarters—once regarded as one of the safest places in the city—now stood on the brink of collapse. Miles and Darius faced one another across the fractured rooftop. For a brief moment, neither man moved. The silence was unnerving. Only the sound of falling debris and the distant cries of evacuation teams disturbed the stillness. Darius fixed his eyes on the young man standing before him, trying to steady his breathing as he searched for any sign that Miles was beginning to tire. Yet the more he looked, the more unsettling the truth became. Miles' posture remained composed, his bre

    --- Inside the Hunter Association headquarters, the atmosphere remained unusually calm. Rows of agents moved efficiently through the spacious command center as countless holographic displays monitored Demon Rift activity, hunter registrations, and emergency reports arriving from every district of the city. Communication officers relayed information between departments while support staff analyzed mana fluctuations detected throughout the metropolitan area. Everything proceeded according to routine. Until... A young Association agent burst through the command center carrying a crystal communication tablet whose surface flickered with an urgent crimson light. His breathing was uneven. Several nearby officers immediately noticed the emergency priority seal displayed on the report. Without stopping, he hurried toward the upper floor where the Director's Office was located. Reaching the large wooden doors, he quickly composed himself before knocking firmly. "Come in." The calm f

    BOOM!The instant Miles and Darius fist collided, it sent a massive shockwave and a deafening explosion ripped through the entire building that caused every window panel to burst out with glittering glass raining to the floor.Even the reinforced concrete cracked beneath their feet, marble tiles shattered into countless fragments, and every surviving window exploded. A violent shockwave raced through the headquarters, causing the entire building to tremble from its foundation.Hunters on the lower floors froze."What... was that?""The Guildmaster...""No," another hunter muttered, his face turning pale. "Someone's actually fighting him on equal footing."Back on the executive floor, neither man had moved an inch.Miles and Darius fists remained locked together as two overwhelming auras clashed violently against each other. Mana surged around Darius , while crimson energy rolled off Miles in relentless waves.For several long seconds, they simply stared at one another.Then both vani

    A faint chuckle escaped Darius Wilson's lips as he looked at the young man standing protectively before Mia. Despite the destruction surrounding them and the countless reports he had received regarding Miles' rampage through the headquarters, the Guildmaster's expression remained composed, almost amused, as though he were evaluating an interesting specimen rather than confronting the person responsible for reducing one of the city's strongest guilds to ruins. "You certainly live up to the reports," Darius remarked, slowly clasping his hands behind his back while his overwhelming aura continued filling every corner of the shattered executive floor. "Arrogant... fearless... and reckless enough to challenge an entire guild by yourself. I had expected confidence from the person who crippled Derek, but I never imagined it would border on insanity." His golden eyes drifted briefly toward the collapsed walls and the devastated offices before returning to Miles. "You've fought your way th
