Iron Cleaver was a technique that relied on the torrential energy circulated around the blade of the sword to increase its penetrative power, allowing it to cut through metal shields as if they were fruits.
The guard captain swung his sword, fully intending to send Sawyer’s head flying.
He thought this technique was an overkill.
However, his sword shattered to bits before it even touched Sawyer.
What just happened?
The guard captain couldn’t even comprehend it.
“Are you done cleaving?” Sawyer yawned once more. “If you get out of my way, I will enter through the gate.”
The guard captain stood in utter confusion and nervousness. (Who the hell is this guy? How did he break my sword that’s made out of rare metal?)
He had bought it in an auction for over 180K, so he believed it’d last with him forever.
But now it completely broke beyond repair.
As the guard captain’s anxiousness grew, a blue limousine arrived there.
Seeing the blue-haired driver, the guard captain rushed over to meet him.
“Nice timing,” Sawyer used this opportunity to enter through the gate.
“Sir Mike! It’s an honor to see you,” the guard captain greeted the youngster who stepped out of the car.
This youngster Mike pushed the guard captain away and rushed over to Sawyer. “A-Aren’t you… Sawyer Brews?”
“Shh!” Sawyer shut his mouth. “Who are you? Wait…you are Fredrick’s son, right?”
Fredrick Ray was the head of the Brilliant Guild, the one who had asked Sawyer to lead his guild and was willing to pay a billion dollars in advance.
“Yes, sir. My name is Mike. I saw you many years ago. I didn’t think it was you, but it really is you,” Mike’s eyes were lit up. “I’m a hardcore fan of you. C-Can I take a selfie?”
As Mike kept talking with Sawyer, the guard captain who was standing about thirty feet away was not having a good expression on his face. (Dammit. Did I mess with some bigshot? I have to right my wrong.)
He hurried over and bowed, “Forgive me for not recognizing and attacking an important guest.”
“I’m no guest,” Sawyer replied, leaving the guard captain puzzled. “Just like how a restaurant can’t stop a food inspector from entering their place, this auction site can’t stop me from entering, either. I don’t need to explain myself further. Do you still want to block my way?”
“I wouldn’t dare,” the guard captain kept his head lowered, a big bead of sweat sliding down his face.
As Sawyer walked away, Mike followed him.
Mike was just eighteen years old, but he looked even younger because there were no signs of mustache or beard on him.
“Just one selfie, please,” Mike pleaded like a kid.
“I’m not a hero or a celebrity for you to take a selfie with me. Don’t irritate me and go your way, Mike,” Sawyer tried to be patient with him.
“Y-You’re here for the auction, aren’t you?” Mike said. “Can I sit next to you?”
Sawyer sighed. “Your persistence definitely comes from your father, but I’m sure you’re here for the auction, too. So, focus on your work, not on me.”
After patting Mike’s shoulder once, Sawyer walked away.
“No matter what you say, you’re my hero!” Mike said a bit loudly, not caring if others could hear his words or not.
Sawyer smiled angrily as Mike kept following him. (If he wasn’t just a brat, I would have slapped some sense into him.)
Mike, on the other hand, made a call to his father. “Dad, guess who I met at Fletcher auction?”
“Who? Don’t tell me it’s your mom?” Fredrick asked while smoking in his bathtub. “Is she still bothering you to make me take her back?”
“No, Dad. I met the Empyrean…”
“What?” the cigar dropped from Fredrick’s hand. “Are you sure it’s him?”
“I just talked with him, Dad. You should hurry up.”
“I-I’m coming. In case he needs money, help him!” Fredrick said, jumping out of the bathtub. “I’ll give you full freedom!”
Mike grinned in excitement. “I will do everything I can to get a selfie from him.”
“A selfie? The fuck do you mean?”
“N-No, no, Dad, I mean, I’ll help him in every way I can.”
Meanwhile, the black benz stopped at the main entrance into the auction grounds.
Once Sasha stepped out, camera flashes lit up the night and every face nearby.
Many men looked at her with eyes full of different intentions.
Receiving stares from unwanted men was nothing new for her, and she didn’t even bother to look at them.
Nobody was allowed to enter the auction site, so everyone had to stand outside for the time being.
Just then, a red lamborghini stopped.
A red-haired beauty stepped out, and many rich young men had their eyes on her, for she was Eureka Fletcher, the only daughter of Vicky Fletcher.
Many wealthy men went to shake hands with her, but she totally ignored them.
She had the air of arrogance around her through and through.
“I am managing the auction tonight,” Eureka said aloud, “and I’m going to be fair to everyone. I will not give personal preference to anybody.”
Her black female assistant standing behind her with a pro-pad in her hand whispered in Eureka’s ears. “That’s the Deville family.”
Eureka’s eyes fell on Sasha. “Ah, so she’s the one my dad wants Ashton to marry. I wasn’t present during my brother’s engagement, but she looks okay at best. My dad wants my worthless younger brother to marry that woman just because she’s growing into a successful entrepreneur. He must see great potential in her, but she’s not even a certified super assistant. She’s nothing in my eyes.”
Sasha, who was nearly thirty feet away, could sense a bit of iciness and mocking in Eureka’s eyes. “She’s so full of herself.”
“She passed the super-soldier test last month with a great score,” Darius told her in a low voice. “Many guilds are lining up for her. Of course, she’s going to be haughty.”
Darius knew how difficult it was to pass the super soldier test.
Every year only 5 to 6 percent out of the millions of applicants around the world would pass this test.
Even the ones who failed the test but reached the later rounds in the test would still be sought after by guilds and other organizations.
Darius barely managed to pass the first round last year, and he was itching to do better next time.
“I don’t get it,” Sasha said annoyedly. “Why do you want to become a super soldier so badly when we already have so much money? Are millions of dollars not enough?”
“Millions won’t save us from what’s coming, Sasha,” Darius was able to freely talk because David had left their side to greet Eureka.
“And what’s coming?”
“Don’t talk like you don’t know,” Darius sighed. “The extraterrestrial and subterranean forces are doing their best to enslave humanity and take over the earth. Unless we’re in the top one percent, we might not be able to survive the coming decade. That’s why, along with getting rich, we also have to get physically powerful. Mm?” Darius noticed a somewhat familiar face in the crowd. “Isn’t that… Mike Ray? Wait… why is he walking with that trash?”
“Trash?” Sasha looked in that direction and spotted the handsome guy next to Mike. “Sawyer?”
“How did that bastard get inside?” Darius coldly looked at his sister. “Was it your doing?”
“W-What? No! I have no idea how he got in!” she quickly. “I’ve been with you all this time, haven’t I? Maybe he used that boy Mike to get inside?”
“Hmph,” Darius didn’t believe his sister’s words. “Call the guards and get him kicked out.”
“W-Who?” Sasha’s expression froze. “M-Me?”
At that moment, a Lamborghini arrived at the main entrance.
Ashton Fletcher stepped out of the car. And he wasn’t alone.
He was with a model who had a lollipop in her mouth. And he wrapped his arm around her shoulder as camera flashlights lit up their faces.
Ashton, on the other hand, gave poses to the cameras and noticed that the girl next to him was staring at someone else.
When Ashton looked in that direction, he saw Sawyer, and his expression turned serious. “That motherfucker… isn’t he the one who tricked me last night and took Sasha home? I’m going to make him bleed from his bottom tonight!”

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

“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
