The morning mist had not yet lifted when Huan Li and hundreds of Silver Blades stood in formation like sharp shadows. Their swords gleamed coldly, their faces expressionless. Across from them, Bintang stepped forward alone—not merely as a man, but as a figure carved by destiny. His cloak fluttered in the wind, and at his waist hung the Dragon Sword, its sheath engraved with scale-like patterns, its hilt reflecting the light of the rising sun.Huan Li stared at him, his lips curling into a sneer.“Today, we will prove that the Dragon King of Amerta is no longer something to be feared!”“Hahaha! I also want to see him actually use that sword of his!”Bintang did not respond. He slowly drew his sword, the sound of metal sliding from its sheath humming like a distant echo. The moment the blade revealed its light, the air around him seemed to tighten—as if the very atmosphere could be split apart.“Honestly, this Dragon Sword isn’t meant for killing animals,” Bintang said calmly, “but oh w

Bintang looked at her for a moment. “I’m not running.”He pressed the red button on the panel. A violent explosion shook the lower section of the Azure Fang, launching torpedoes into the hull of the Dark Leviathan.A massive tremor collapsed part of the deck. Seawater burst in through the cracked walls.Amid the chaos, Bintang and Dewi Medist surged upward, escaping through an evacuation corridor toward the open deck.Above, storm winds spiraled. The ship rocked violently. A black helicopter descended from the sky, lowering a rope—Zidane stood at the door, waving.“Quick, Sir!”Bintang helped Dewi Medist up first, then followed. As they were lifted, the ship below began to tilt. Fire and smoke filled the sky.From a distance, Veyra stood on the burning deck, watching them leave. Her gaze did not show defeat, but a cold vow.“Very well, Bintang Ardhana… you win tonight. But you’ve just signed the beginning of a war you won’t be able to stop.”The helicopter pulled away, leaving behind

The sound of waves rolled through the midnight sea. The ocean wind pierced the skin, carrying salty mist that hung in the air.From the darkness beneath the surface, a small black dot appeared—a one-man submersible capsule, gliding silently toward the massive ship, Dark Leviathan.Inside, Bintang sat still. No sound, no heavy breathing. Only the ticking of the small watch on his wrist marked the passage of time.“Distance: two hundred meters,” Zidane’s voice came through the earpiece. “You’ll hit their lower hull in three minutes.”“Don’t wait for me,” Bintang replied quietly. “Once my signal disappears, detonate the sonar on the west side. Keep them occupied there.”“Copy.”Silence returned. Bintang stared ahead, his eyes as cold as the sea before him. On the small display, the massive silhouette of the *Dark Leviathan* loomed faintly—a black steel monster towering above the water.He took a deep breath, opened the panel beside him, and pressed a red button.Tskkkk!The capsule stopp

Meanwhile, far out in the middle of the sea, a black ship without lights glided silently—the Dark Leviathan, a warship belonging to the Black Sea Syndicate.Inside the ship’s control room, Veyra stood tall before a large screen. Her face was illuminated by the blue glow of the monitor, her gaze sharp and cold. Beside her, Raiden Luo studied the mission report.“The target has left the palace. Only two guards are with her. If we’re going to do this, now is the time.”Raiden glanced at the watch on his wrist. “Do it. But no blood on the streets. I want Bintang to know… that I can take anything from him without spilling a single drop.”Veyra smiled faintly. “That sounds very much like a personal vendetta.”“This isn’t war,” Raiden replied flatly. “It’s a warning.”On the other side of Amerta City, in the eastern palace garden, Dewi Medist walked alone, carrying a small book and a cup of warm tea. She had just finished an economic report to present to Bintang the next morning.The night w

The sky over Jiancin that night was not its usual blue. It was dark, dense, and turbulent, as if the sea itself refused to remain calm. Beneath relentless flashes of lightning, an old, unflagged ship cut through the towering waves. On its deck stood a man with blood-red eyes filled with rage. His clothes were torn, his face covered in wounds—but that gaze, the gaze of Veyra, remained as sharp as a blade.He survived.Even though his entire underground network had been destroyed, even though the government was hunting him, and even though Golden Serpent was now nothing but a name—Veyra was not dead.Beside him, a tall, broad-shouldered foreign man lit a cigar and gazed out at the sea. He wore a long black coat with a silver wave emblem on his shoulder. “You’re truly stubborn, Veyra. You’ve lost everything, yet you still refuse to die. What are you chasing now? Revenge?”Veyra wiped the blood from the corner of his lips and smirked. “I lost money, my name, and my honor. But not my memor

The afternoon sky over Jiancin looked gray. Across the towering buildings in the city center, banners bearing the name *Golden Serpent Corporation* fluttered, symbolizing Veyra’s seemingly unshakable economic power. But that afternoon, from a large screen inside his headquarters, Veyra stared at a stream of numbers on his computer—and his face slowly turned pale.“What is this…?”A financial assistant ran toward him in panic. “S-sir! Our transaction systems in overseas markets have suddenly been blocked! All reserve accounts… drained!”“What do you mean drained?”“Zero balance, sir! Even our offshore accounts in the Nation of Jiwa and several allied countries of Amerta… all gone!”Veyra stared at the screen with wide eyes. A single sentence appeared repeatedly across every security system they tried to access:"Revenge isn’t always paid in blood. Sometimes, it’s enough to make you poor." — from Mr. B!Veyra’s voice turned hoarse with suppressed fury. “Who dares…? Who could breach a fi
