“My bad,” Sawyer rubbed the back of his head in mild embarrassment. “I didn’t mean to break the items. He grabbed me from behind, and I reacted…”
“You mean to say you accidentally threw a 300 pound man, with one hand at that?” Darius coldly glared at Sawyer. “Do we look like dumbasses to you?”
Darius was well-trained in martial arts and had a black belt, so he knew that what Sawyer did was nothing short of extraordinary.
“Yes,” Sawyer seemed rather innocent.”I-I didn’t mean you are all dumbasses. I meant that I accidentally threw this guy. By the way, when is this Big Dog coming?”
A brief silence filled the hall as his words further enraged the Deville family members, especially Noelle.
“Tell this rowdy to get out! Now!” David roared at Sasha.
Sasha’s whole body jerked at once in fear. She quickly looked at Sawyer. “Please leave.”
“Are you sure?” Sawyer couldn’t help but ask. “Will you continue to let your family members use you and decide your future for you?”
Sasha’s heart dropped. “H-Huh? What are you—”
“Stop spouting nonsense, you scoundrel! Who’s using who?!” Maria picked up the fork and threw it at Sawyer.
Sawyer caught the fork with two fingers. “That was dangerous…” his gaze momentarily turned sharp, but then he expectantly looked at Sasha once more.
She said nothing and wasn’t even willing to look at him.
She was too afraid to go against her parents and do anything.
“I want you to know that I didn’t exploit you,” he took out a small pouch from his back pocket and put it in her hand and whispered to her, “If you don’t want to feel ‘hot’ at night, you should eat what’s inside the pouch. One pill every evening would do.”
And then, he walked away.
Nobody told him to stop.
Sasha briefly glanced at him, but in a few seconds, Sawyer was gone.
“Throw that pouch in the trash,” Maria commanded her daughter.
“Aren’t you curious, Mom?” Noelle quickly intervened. “Let’s at least look at what's inside that small bag.”
“It probably contains drugs of some sort,” Darius opined. He had curly hair just like his father. There was no such thing as baldness in the Deville family, and they were all blessed with good genes. “The way he threw Big Dog… that’s not something one can do without the help of drugs.”
Some other family members nodded in agreement.
“These days so many people are taking drugs to pass the super soldier test,” Darius’ wife, Grace, opined. She was short and also had short hair. “He must be one of those.”
Just then, Big Dog woke up. “Where am I?” He looked around but didn’t recognize anybody. “Who am I?”
“Throw this dog shit out,” Maria roared with great irritation. “I must never see his face in this mansion again!”
The other butlers and maids, eight of them, together had to take Big Dog away.
Finally, it was silent in the hall.
It felt like peace was once again restored in the Deville mansion.
“You are going to meet your fiance tonight, Sasha,” David said, breaking the silence as he saw fit.
“Dad, I met him at the party yesterday,” Sasha quickly replied. “Ashton Fletcher isn’t just a playboy. There are rumors that he slept with underage girls. I won’t marry someone like him in a million years.”
“Shut your mouth,” David barked. “You don’t know what’s good for you, which is why you brought trash into this house and slept with it. But the Fletcher family is one of the biggest traders of precious goods. They’re only going to get richer in this war-ridden era without actually having to fight on the frontlines. If you get married into his family, it will secure our future.”
“I totally agree with your father,” Maria backed her husband. “In these turbulent times, developing strong relationships with powerful people is crucial for surviving and also thriving. You may think we’re using you, but this is for your own good. Trust me, you’ll thank me later.”
Sasha looked bitter. “I don’t like Ashton, so why don’t you let Noelle marry him?”
“Pfft,” Noelle nearly choked on the food. “I’m still studying, sis. I have to become a Certified Super Assistant. H-How can I get married any time soon?”
“You’re meeting Ashton at the Fletcher Auction Club tonight,” David told Sasha. “Whether he slept with a pig or a piglet in the past, it doesn’t matter as he’s capable enough to suppress the news. You’re going to make a deep impression on him.”
Sasha frowned very much. (I have to mess up tonight’s meeting with him somehow. Mm?) She secretly opened the pouch that Sawyer had given her.
Her eyes widened after seeing that it was full of various colored crystals that looked far more precious than diamonds.
“He said there were pills inside. He calls these crystals pills?” she didn’t recognize them. “Did he buy these fake shiny things from some cheap store? And he even told me to eat them? Ashton is way better than this cheapskate Sawyer. Ashton can at least buy me real jewels unlike this jokester! But I can’t marry either of them. Why is it so hard to find the right man?”
At the same time, outside the Deville mansion.
The guard spat on Sawyer as he walked out. “You are lucky that they didn’t loose the dogs on you, keke, or they would have stripped you of your clothes at the very least. Kekeke.”
“They did loose a big dog on me,” Sawyer wiped the spit off his shirt. “But your laugh is more annoying.” He squinted his eyes.
A gust of wind blew and ripped apart the guard’s clothes, leaving him with nothing but half-worn, half-torn underwear.
“AHHIYYEE!” the guard screamed in great embarrassment and ran away into the nearest bushes.
Sawyer took his mobile out, which was nothing more than a flexible plastic strip, and dialed a number. “Helia, find out who is selling the New Moon Nether Rose in this city.”
“Yes, Young Lord,” a sweet female voice rang from the other side. “But where are you now? When are you coming back home? SSL members have been spamming us with repeated messages, asking for your whereabouts.”
“Screw SSL. They suspended me first, and now they’re trying to act like nothing happened. Forget about them for now, and send me the details regarding the New Moon Nether Rose herb fast,” Sawyer commanded. “Oh, and also, buy the company named Goldblood.”
“Goldblood? Isn’t that a perfume company?” Helia sounded confused. “I’m sure you’re not a fan of perfumes. Why are you interested in buying that company? Did someone from that company tick you off or something?”
“Just buy it, okay? Bye,” Saying that he ended the call.
He looked back at the mansion.
“Sasha Deville… I did what I could to help her, but that drug is going to make her nights difficult until the new moon night. If she takes the pills I gave her, she’ll feel better and will also attract less negative forces.”
Sawyer kept walking.
When he reached the street corner, he saw a long line of six-wheeled Hummer cars. Dozens of men in suits stepped out of the cars and kneeled before Sawyer.
“Give me a break,” Sawyer turned the other way and kept walking.

CHAPTER 72
At Brilliant Guild headquarters.“The unending greed of the zombies was conquered by a single stroke of the sword…” Fredrick’s son, Mike, was talking to the guild members while they were repairing the damaged infrastructure.“You’re surely exaggerating things, Young Master Mike.”“I heard there were thousands of zombies. How can a single swing of a sword destroy all of them?”“Even if our entire guild fights those monsters, we will suffer heavy losses against such numbers!”“Heh,” Mike snorted. “If you don’t believe me, that’s your own problem. I’m just telling you guys what my dad told me.”“So, who’s the guy who saved the city?”“It’s the Empyrean,” Mike said.“What? But you said that the zombies were killed by a sword user. The Empyrean isn’t known to use a sword!”“Huh! Did the Empyrean ever tell you that he can’t use a sword?” Mike blurted. “Most of the supersoldiers don't even know what kind of powers he has. So, how can you assume that he can’t use a sword?”At the Mayor's offi
CHAPTER 71
All officers and guards except the low-ranked ones received the order through a voice command to hurry over to the western border of the city.The nearest group of officers rushed over to the border, but they did not have the authority to open the door in the barrier and step outside.Though they could see the hundreds of criminals lying unconscious on the ground on the other side of the barrier, the officers were not able to get to the other side.They had to wait until a superior showed up.By then, over fifty officers gathered and proceeded to cuff up all the criminals.The cuffs were made with a special metal that sealed their strength.Soon, the mayor arrived there with his own group of guards.The mayor was not expecting to see so many criminals.“What are we supposed with all these bastards, sir?” a senior officer asked the mayor.“Let’s keep them in prison,” the mayor replied. “We’ll hand them over to the Super Task Force. They’ll take these criminals to Lode Prison.”Just the

“Kekeke, kahahaha,” Bloody Rooster’s maniacal laugh sent chills down Sasha’s spine. “If you don’t want anyone to die, then get your ass down here, you bitch! Jump from the balcony! Now!”Sasha was afraid to jump from so high.“Didn’t you hear me?” Bloody Rooster got annoyed and started shooting.The bullets that were flying at Sasha stopped in midair.“Ah?” Bloody Rooster was startled and confused. “What the fuck? Do you have some kind of powers?”Sasha, however, looked even more shocked and confused.Just then, all the bullets rose into the air as if they were getting pulled up.At the same time, an air bubble appeared around Bloody Rooster, trapping him inside.“The fuck is this?” He put the machine gun to use, but the bullets were repelled by the bubble, and all those bullets ended up hitting him.Blood Rooster never expected that he’d die from the bullets of his own gun.Even though he died, the bubble that captured him still rose into the sky.Sasha was in shock and disbelief as
CHAPTER 69
Sawyer turned around and looked at his chest.There was a minor cut, but it was healing slowly but surely. A normal attack would have already healed, but because of Richie’s black energy, it was taking time.Sawyer made a phone call to Helia and told her about Richie, which quite surprised her.She assured him that she’d deliver Richie’s corpse to SSL headquarters and also appreciated Sawyer for his effort.“It’s not over yet,” Sawyer told her. “I think Richie was planning something big in this city. With him gone now, all the criminals under him will run rampant. I’ll have to deal with them before they take people’s lives.”“I will call some personnel in Summit city and warn them in your name,” Helia replied.“That will help,” Sawyer replied and then ended the phone call. “Let me clean up this city as much as I can.”He flew and shot through the barrier and stopped high in the air.His eyes scanned all around the city, for he was able to view the whole city from high in the sky.Ther
CHAPTER 68
Sawyer entered the building.There were eight maids standing in the hall, four on either side. All of them had bloodshot eyes, and they seemed ready to attack him, even though they weren’t even looking at him.Sawyer looked up.Richie was sitting on the chandelier. He used the rope-like cloth to come down and land in front of Sawyer.Sawyer didn’t move an inch.“You’re better than I thought,” Richie smiled. “You’ll make a fine addition to my army.”“I did the right thing by coming to this city before going to the Forest of Nightmares,” Sawyer replied, his hands in his pockets. “It’d make things easier for me if I send your body to SSL.”“SSL?” Richie’s expression changed. “You’re part of that fucking organization? Then I’m going to have to kill you in the most painful way before reviving you into a zombie.”He suddenly leaped back and waved his arms, releasing branches of clothes to fly and wrap all around Sawyer.But then, all of that cloth was ripped to shreds.Sawyer didn’t even mo
CHAPTER 67
“You two have no other choice but to enter the mansion… if you want to live a little longer, that is,” the butler was staring at them with an assured smile. He appeared quite villainous.Noelle’s heart raced like never before. She was already regretting coming here. “We’re fucked. I don’t want to become a zombie.”“Then why did you come here?” Sawyer asked her.“Because I was worried about you,” she quickly said.Sawyer didn’t believe her.“And my sister also wanted me to stop you from this suicide mission,” Noelle added.Sawyer glanced at her. “Really? Your sister?”“Yeah,” Noelle scratched her cheek. “Actually, my sister was listening to our whole conversation at the hotel. I know it was unprofessional, but I didn’t know your identity, so I had to be careful.”Sawyer’s expression slightly changed. “I see. Is your sister still listening?”“No. Of course not.”“Hey…” the butler’s expression turned serious. “Are you guys ignoring me?”“Tell your sister to not break my heart like she di
