2025-07-16 23:29:21Dear Loyal Readers and Supporters of RFP,
I want to sincerely apologize for the mistake in the last three chapters. I’m sure all of you have already noticed that those chapters were from another book… From Prison to Power, my new book. This was an unfortunate error on my part. My editor will ensure it is corrected by tomorrow. Unfortunately, he is currently unavailable as work has officially closed for the day. I truly regret the inconvenience and frustration this may have caused you. While I’m unable to offer refunds for the coins spent, I wholeheartedly promise to make it up to you. In the coming days, I will be updating with extra chapters beyond the usual schedule, and if the platform permits, I will also share free bonus chapters as a token of my gratitude for your patience and understanding. Please accept my sincerest apologies. I hope you can forgive me for this mistake. With gratitude and remorse, Your author, Rex Magnus

Chapter 718 – The Sky Family is Here
*****“Lucky me that I dumped that stupid loser when I did. I could have wasted my life drowning in mediocrity… never knowing what the real world looked like and what power felt like.” Sarah muttered this to herself, her lips curling into a self-satisfied smirk,She imagined herself, stuck in ignorance forever, cooking bland dinners for a man who would never rise above average. The image alone was enough to make her want to scrub her skin.Just then, a bright, almost giddy smile broke across her face as her gaze latched onto Lucius like he was the sun breaking through clouds.Her thoughts turned syrupy with infatuation. ‘Once I become his woman, I’ll learn everything, every secret, and every path to power.’ The thought curled warmly in her chest, sparking anticipation.…Meanwhile, back at the front of the hall, the charade of polite formalities carried on.Everyone pretended they didn’t understand the subtext… that for the mighty Myron family to attend an event like this would
Chapter 717 – Sarah’s Reaffirmed Decision
*****Nevertheless, the tension had been felt, and no amount of fake laughter could completely erase the fact that the Myron name had just shifted the mood like a sudden temperature drop.Meanwhile, in the third section, confusion currently brews.The guests brought in by the descendants of third-rank families were currently looking to their hosts for answers.“Love,” Sarah leaned closer to Victor, her brows furrowed, and her voice pitched low, “I’ve heard of the Myron family before. But… why did everyone just go weird a second ago? Especially the Scoan patriarch? He looked like he swallowed a lemon dipped in arsenic.”Victor’s gaze instantly flicked around cautiously upon hearing his woman, scanning the room as if checking for hidden ears. When he finally leaned in to answer, it was in a hushed, conspiratorial tone.“You don’t know… but the Scoan family isn’t like the other upper second-rank families.”Sarah’s eyes narrowed, her curiosity further piqued. “Not like the others?
Chapter 716 – The Hypocritical Upper Second Rank Families
*****In the following second, the speaker’s pupils shrank to pinpricks as if someone had just whispered a death sentence into his ear.His hand shot up to cover his mouth so quickly you’d think he was trying to physically shove the words back in before they got him killed.The effect of his words was instant. Like a chain reaction, the eyes of everyone else in the hall widened… save for a handful of clueless souls lounging in the third section. Most of them began to ask themselves the same thing: ‘How did I miss that name before?’Throats began to bob in uneasy swallows, no one daring to follow the thought out loud. Instead, they all turned… almost in unison to look at Augustus.And Augustus… was staring back at them right now, his expression undergoing a transformation worthy of theatre.Moments ago, his face had twisted into something dark and vicious, like a man personally insulted in the deepest recesses of his ancestry. His posture had screamed: ‘How dare the Sky Family?!’
Chapter 715 – The Banquet’s Main Goal
*****From the moment Lucius had strutted into the banquet hall, carrying himself like an emperor entering his throne room where his subjects were waiting, his gaze had been locked on the first section.Only once or twice did his eyes wander elsewhere, and even then, they snapped back with the speed of an impatient whip. He wasn’t searching for just anyone… no, he had been hunting for a particular face. That icy, aloof, and statuesque beauty… Grace.Every glance of his had been laced with a quiet, predatory arrogance, as though he were already rehearsing her humiliation in his mind.Lucius had been waiting for this day. No… he had been salivating for it.Since his breakthrough just two days ago, he hadn’t allowed a single idle second to pass without picturing this moment.He had imagined Grace pale and rattled, her perfect composure cracking under his gaze. He had imagined her squirming in her seat, avoiding his eyes, her cold mask melting into embarrassment.He had seen it all
Chapter 714 – The Absent Guests
*****The people in the last two seating sections, of course, believed Lucius’s words, practically glowing with in response.Their eyes brightened even more, their posture leaning forward as though they were basking in reflected glory.Some even looked envious, that quiet, aching kind of envy that made them wonder if they would ever know this intoxicating.The people in the first section, however…They blinked once, then twice, and then, very slowly, their mouths fell open in disbelief.'Nonsense!' they all screamed silently in the privacy of their own skulls.“Utterly ridiculous!”Leveling up did change a fighter’s body, yes... but not to the absurd degree Lucius was making it sound.Strength gained from advancement usually took some time to fully master, but the “adjustment period” he was describing? That was like saying you needed three months to get used to a slightly heavier pair of boots.In truth, most fighters could adapt in less than a day, and even then, no one was
Chapter 713 – The Arrogant Hosts
*****Here, in the first section of the hall, the atmosphere was nothing like the other two sections.Instead of reverent adoration of the other sections, there were faces carved with envy so raw it could have cut glass, the kind of jealousy that twisted mouths and darkened eyes.‘Why them? Why not us?’ hung thick in the air.And beneath that envy, coiled tight and unmistakable, was the second emotion… dissatisfaction. Pure and simmering unhappiness.Augustus and Lucius didn’t so much as flinch at this. Instead, they relished it. The jealous, green-eyed stares were a treat, but the frowns… the kind that screamed: ‘I hate this, but I can’t help myself,’ were pure intoxication.They knew that look very well. Once upon a time, they had worn it themselves, standing powerless before those stronger, richer, and more untouchable.In fact, many in this very group had made them feel that way before. And back then, all they could do was swallow it.But now? Now the tables had turned, an
