Ch 49
"Um... um... I-I...." Leon stammered, still not knowing what to say. After a quick moment of thinking, he quickly held up the plastic bags and said, "I didn’t mean to look. I was just passing by to put these groceries in the kitchen. I’m sorry."After that, he hurried away as fast as he could.Watching Leon leave, Bella stood still for a moment. She’d just realized she was now living under the same roof as a man. Was my reaction too much? No, I should have reacted like that. Did he... did he see me changing?The thought made her cheeks slowly turn red. Her mind raced, making her feel even more flustered."No. No, Bella. He must have just been walking by. He was just passing through. Don’t overthink it," she muttered, trying to push away her negative thoughts.In the kitchen, Leon paced back and forth, staring at the plastic bags he’d set on the counter and hadn’t touched since. He tried to calm himself down and push the words he’d just blurted out to Bella out of his mind."Leon?"Sud
Ch 48
The stalker writhed in pain, his eyes bloodshot and bulging. He tried to pry Leon’s hand off his neck with both of his own, but the grip was far too tight."You don’t want to answer?" Leon continued, his voice heavy with pressure.His eyes gleamed sharply, releasing a thick red aura that made the stalker tremble with fear to his very core."Tell me, who sent you!"The man kept struggling, refusing to say a word. Only soft sounds of pain escaped his lips."Hah. You’re quite stubborn, aren’t you?"Leon then planted his feet firmly, spun around, and threw the stalker to the ground where he rolled several times."Ugh!" the stalker groaned, clutching his chest and neck alternately as waves of pain washed over him. Amidst the swirling dust, he tried to get up with great difficulty, then lifted his head to stare at Leon.Staring coldly at the stalker, Leon said, "Since you’re already here, let’s have some fun."Leon then ran toward the stalker and launched a series of ordinary attacks withou
Ch 47: The Stalker
For a moment, Leon said nothing—making Frander’s heart beat faster and faster. His lips were pressed tight, his eyes fixed anxiously on Leon’s back.Then Leon turned around. His jaw was firm, and his presence radiated in all directions. In his mind, he thought that perhaps the auction might have something interesting to offer."Alright then. Show me the way," Leon replied.Hearing this answer, Frander’s eyes immediately widened—his expression was like someone who’d just found a priceless treasure.How could he not be thrilled? For a branch family like theirs, gaining support from a master like Leon was like finding water in the middle of a desert. If he could build a relationship with Leon, just as Jonathan had done, he could finally prove his worth to the main family in the capital.Jonathan was equally happy. As Leon started walking—with Frander leading the way—he walked beside Leon with a wide, deeply respectful smile. He thought to himself, This is my chance to show my sincerity t
Ch 32: Rihana’s Fear
Leon just smirked slightly as he heard her, letting out a soft, casual sniff. Looking at the woman in front of him made him feel both amused and disgusted—especially after hearing the visitors whispering and ganging up on him.Meanwhile, Jonathan immediately switched from his respectful expression to a flat, serious one as he looked at Frander.Sensing the sharp change in his demeanor, Frander felt like he’d been electrocuted. His eyes widened slightly and he shifted awkwardly, bowing his head a little as he said, "I-I’m sorry, Mr. Jonathan."In his flustered state, he suddenly realized—if someone as important as Jonathan treated this young man with such respect, then everything he’d suspected about Leon earlier must be true.He straightened up, turned to Rihana, and glared at her sharply, raising his voice, "That’s enough! What do you think you’re doing? Apologize to Mr. Jonathan and Mr…""Mr. Leon!" Jonathan clarified."Uh, right—Mr. Leon."After that, Frander bowed his head again a
Ch 45: Forgive Me, Mr. Leon
Fed up with the situation, Leon decided to put an end to the tension once and for all. Initially, he’d only commented on the statue to himself, never intending for anyone else to hear. Unfortunately, Rihana’s sudden appearance had turned a small matter into a big problem, and he hated when things got complicated like this.As Rihana charged toward him at high speed, he channeled a small amount of his energy. He casually pushed his palm forward, sending a surge of energy that struck Rihana’s body and sent her flying backward."Huh?" Frander gasped, his eyes wide with shock. The moment he felt the energy surge, he started trembling all over."What did I just see? Did he just manipulate qi? What is actually going on here?" he thought to himself.A wave of dread washed over his entire body, freezing him in place."Dammit. Who exactly is this man?" Rihana wondered to herself, clutching her slightly aching chest. Her gaze was still sharp, but her confidence had been shaken by Leon’s unexpec
Ch 44
"W-what are you doing here?" Helen asked, her knees shaking.Gerald snorted and glanced back. "Gerald? Who's that? I don't know him."Emma frowned and raised her voice in a panic. "Stop playing dumb. I know it's you, Gerald! Security! Security!"Aside from Monica, Eve, and Helen, the other three girls hadn't really registered Gerald, even after hearing about him taking down Axel's gang. So, they seemed relatively calm, wondering why Emma was freaking out."Huh. Why the rush? I just wanted to join in for a bit. Sounds like you guys are having a really interesting conversation.""Tch. How did this freaking jerk get in here?" Monica muttered, grinding her teeth."Oh yeah, why don't we pick a song? I really love a good ruckus. Don't you?" Gerald reached for the door, closing and locking it.Gerald's actions made the girls' eyes widen. Helen, feeling an overwhelming sense of dread as she looked into Gerald's sharp eyes, suddenly slumped to the floor, as if she knew what was coming next."D
