Eureka didn’t like halting the auction, but because the crowd seemed invested in their duel, she let herself fall for Sawyer’s provocation. “Let’s take a short ten minute break during which we all can enjoy watching the duel on stage.”
Ashton jumped and covered over twenty feet in one go and landed on the stage.
Sawyer was walking toward the stage, but Sasha quickly came over to him and said, “Don’t go. You’ll die.”
Sawyer slightly smiled. “Let’s go out on a date tomorrow.”
“What the hell are you saying? Don’t you value your life? Ashton is easily a dozen times stronger than Big Dog!” Sasha blurted angrily, but Sawyer still entered the stage.
“Hahaha,” Mike was laughing in the distance as he recorded what’s happening on the stage with his artificial eye. “An infamous rookie vs a seemingly poor common man. I wish Dad was here. He would have loved to see this.”
People already began to clap and root for Ashton. The model Betsy who came here with Ashton was also rooting for him, though she also seemed interested in Sawyer because of his looks.
“No killing is allowed. You’re free to give up anytime you want,” Eureka told both the contestants. “The time limit, as I have said, is ten minutes.”
“I only need ten seconds to turn him into a slime,” Ashton grinned like a beast and pumped his fists together.
“Start.” Before Eureka finished the word, Ashton leaped forth and unleashed a powerful technique, “Hurricane Fists!”
His fists exploded through the air, creating booming noises every time they punched at Sawyer.
Thick vapors spread throughout the stage.
Everyone thought Sawyer’s body was going to turn into a pulp and be blown to bits.
Eureka could have stepped in, but she chose not to.
Sasha covered her eyes, not wanting to see the brutality transpiring on stage.
David and Darius snickered as if everything happening was very much within expectations.
Mike appeared a bit nervous, for Ashton was quite stronger than he thought.
As different people in the crowd kept saying that the duel was over, the vapors soon settled down.
Everybody was shocked to see the person hugging the stage.
It wasn’t Sawyer but Ashton!
What the fuck just happened?
Nobody could tell what happened on the stage.
Even Eureka, who was standing as a referee on stage, had no clue. Nevertheless, she was shocked to see her brother lying like a slug stuck on the floor.
Sawyer stood his ground, completely unhurt and unexcited.
Sasha’s eyes were filled with wonder. (Was his win against Big Dog not a fluke?)
“H-How is this possible?” David’s mouth widely opened. “There must be some sort of a trick!”
Darius looked at Mike who was laughing and clapping. “Don’t tell me…”
Just then, Ashton opened his eyes and realized that he was on the floor. (Did I lose? Impossible!)
Unable to swallow the loss, he forcibly got up to his feet and glared at Sawyer.
“You! What sorcery did you use?” Ashton growled. “I saw you sitting with Mike Ray. Did you receive some sort of power-enhancing drug from him?”
The people in the crowd started looking at each other, and murmurs sprang to life.
Ashton didn’t want to accept the loss, especially knowing what’s at stake. “I refuse to believe that you fought fairly!”
“Yeah, he must have relied on drugs!”
“Otherwise, how can he beat Sir Ashton?!”
“Kick that cheater off the stage!”
Different people purposely supported Ashton, as they had business deals with the Fletcher family.
“If you want, I will fight you again,” Sawyer maintained eye contact with Ashton.
Ashton’s pride was hurt, but he couldn’t risk fighting Sawyer not knowing what kind of a drug he might be using.
“Or you can accept your loss,” Sawyer added, “and fulfill the four conditions.”
“I won’t accept the loss!” Ashton suddenly snapped and leaped at Sawyer, slashing his claw-like hand down.
Swoosh!
BAM~!
A couple of teeth flew off the stage and fell in the drinks on the table where the Deville family members were sitting.
An utter silence fell over the crowd as the teeth weren’t Sawyer’s but Ashton Fletcher’s.

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
