Several allied leaders wore shame on their faces.

“Palace Master Loisa, we’re truly sorry. The moment we got your call for help, we mobilized to come support you—but the twelve major organizations got to us first and blocked our way.”

“That’s right. We had to fight through a siege with our lives on the line just to get here.”

Up close, they were a mess—blood-spattered, armor torn, exhaustion plain.

Darkris laughed, smug and loud. “Hahaha, Loisa, you didn’t think we wouldn’t predict you’d call f

    Adrian shot toward the warship carrying the second-in-commands of the six major organizations like a cannonball.Panic swept the deck. Orders rang out.“What are you waiting for? Damn it, fire! Fire!”Screams mingled with a barrage of gunfire. Bullets rained down on Adrian, but he didn’t slow. He raised a shield and kept charging.The men of the six organizations soon realized, to their horror, that they were facing a monster. Their bullets, which had never failed them before, couldn’t even break his shield.Before anyone could think of another way to stop him, Adrian was hovering over the warship. Blinding golden light lit up the surrounding sea.He threw a punch.Nine golden dragons appeared once more. With a deafening roar, they slammed into the ship.Explosions tore through the vessel, leaving it riddled with holes. The quickest among those aboard rushed to jump into the sea, but before they could, the entire warship exploded.Another warship had been destroyed by Adrian.Nearly a

    With that, Darkris—the leader of Slay the Greedy Wolf—was dead.Hadis, Palace Master of Hall of Heartlessness—dead.William, head of the Wolf Fang bounty hunters—dead.And two more leaders from allied organizations—dead as well.The tide turned so hard the Peak of Death fighters could only stare.“That kid’s a devil. He’s terrifying. What do we do now?”“Blade to the neck whether we duck or not. There’s no going back. We fight!”They roared, and the battle crashed together again.This time, Kro, Emptiness, and Iris Lloyd moved as well.Octavia started to join them, then thought better of it and stayed to guard the badly injured Loisa.Emptiness laughed as he leapt onto a warship. “You killers are all ruthless and fearless. Today Lord Buddha will see just how strong you really are!”He swung his monk’s staff in a brutal arc—where it swept, bodies dropped screaming.His power was nothing if not lethal.He might’ve come from the Buddhist path, but his moves were wide-open and heroic, his

    A low rumble of engines rolled in from afar.A dozen warships cruised in, steady and slow.Just minutes earlier, Adrian had decided ships were too slow and switched to helicopters midway, leaving the main force to follow. They made it ahead of the fleet.“Over five thousand elite troops. Still feeling confident?”Hadis and the others exchanged looks—they hadn’t expected this curveball.Darkris still didn’t grasp how bad this was. “Five thousand or fifty thousand—doesn’t matter. Today, no matter who shows up, the victory is ours.”Kro rolled his neck. “Then let’s warm up. But a word of advice—don’t piss that kid off. Even I’m not his match. Provoking him is not a smart choice.”Even with the warning, Darkris and his crew clearly didn’t take Adrian seriously.Adrian’s face was stone. “Find someone else to fight. These five are mine. They die by my hand.”Emptiness and the others had no complaints.The battle erupted again.Darkris glared at Adrian, venom in his eyes. “Kid, you got a che

We sent people to intercept every group you’re friendly with. Sure, some slipped through—but what can seven thousand do?”He laughed again, basking in it.Despair finally settled cold and heavy in Loisa’s chest. It had all been planned. How was she supposed to break a net like this?Darkris wasn’t done twisting the knife. He looked down at the seven thousand who’d arrived, voice dripping arrogance. “You can see the situation for yourselves. Stand with that woman, and there’s on

    Adrian smiled at the three beside him. “Same as you—broke through two minor realms in a row. Not bad at all.”They’d clearly expected it, so no one was surprised.Octavia eyed the little flower in his hand and gasped. “Adrian, what is that? It’s gorgeous!”Women were born helpless against anything that sparkled.“It’s an herb I need for a pill I’m planning to refine,” Adrian said. “Didn’t expect to get this lucky.”All four had made significant progress—meaning they now held far better odds of surviving whatever came next.They were still riding that high when Kro arrived in a rush with a crowd at his back.“Good grief, Mr. Doyle. You warned me in advance, sure, but I didn’t think your breakthroughs would make this much noise!”Several ice mountains had been shattered, melting into torrents that bled into the sea. The area was a wreck, as if someone had gone on a rampage.Catching their looks of awe, Adrian chuckled. “Where are you all headed? Why so many people?”At the mention of bu

    The great axe swept across. Loisa vaulted high, her thin blade skimming Darkris’s chest—two gashes opened and bled.That only sent Darkris into a fury. Roaring, he charged straight for her.Watching from the side, William and Hadis traded a look.“As expected of a leader of the four great assassin organizations. Darkris is going all out and still can’t gain the upper hand.”“Then we should jump in. Kill her fast before anything complicates this.”Decision made, one lifted twin scimitars, the other slipped brass knuckles on. Both rushed Loisa.By then, Loisa and Darkris were already fighting at full burn.“Darkris, I may not kill you easily, but you won’t kill me either. Come on—keep trying.”She vanished from his sight and reappeared with her blade driving straight for his heart.The danger hit Darkris so hard his body tried to move on instinct—but too late.A split second later, two massive surges of power crashed in from the sides.Sensing it, Loisa had to adjust on the fly and slip
