2026-04-23 23:00:21After reaching the safe zone with Kina and hearing Vincent’s announcement over the speakers that he had successfully passed the second phase, they made their way back to the grand hall.
However, instead of being greeted with congratulations, what awaited them was a rather noisy scene unfolding on the stage.Dominica and Javier were arguing.No, arguing was putting it lightly.They were openly clashing.“I don’t even know what to call you anymore, y

Chapter 104 - Small But Powerful
Amid their confusion, Melvin let out a broken, uneven laugh. It was hard to tell whether it came from disbelief that Levi actually knew Luke, or simply from the sheer confusion of it all.“Sorry to ask, Mr. Levi, but are you talking about this man?” he asked, pointing directly at Luke as he cautiously tried his luck, hoping to confirm whether they truly knew each other.Or perhaps, deep down, he was hoping for a different answer. Something like no.Levi gave him a brief, questioning look, as if silently asking who Melvin thought he was to casually question him like that.Even so, he still answered.“Of course. Who else would I be talking about? Mr. Cruise is the one you’re accusing here,” he said in a somewhat annoyed tone, completely different from how calmly he spoke when talking to Alona.Everyone was even more surprised by the direct confirmation. But it didn’t end there. What Levi did next made their eyes widen in outright shock.He turned toward Luke and said, “Mr. Cruise, what
Chapter 103 - Strangely Knew Him
“Oh, really? You saw him do that to them?”The red-haired woman, Alona, slowly stood up and gave Melvin a playfully amused look. Even her tone carried a faint trace of sarcasm. However, Melvin, who was completely focused on blaming Luke at the moment, didn’t seem to notice it at all and continued stubbornly with his accusations.His expression even turned slightly arrogant, as if he believed Alona was siding with him.“I did!” he answered, the corner of his lips curling into a contemptuous smirk. “My teammates were just trying to defend him, but he suddenly grabbed their arms and broke them!”The way Melvin reported it sounded as if he had personally witnessed everything from start to finish. Somehow, his dramatic retelling managed to convince a few curious onlookers, as it sounded surprisingly believable.Luke could only chuckle inwardly. For a brief moment, he had wondered if Melvin had actually seen what he did. But after hearing the r
Chapter 102 - The Red-Haired Woman
“Hmph! Do you think I’d believe your nonsense? You think their arms just broke like that?” Melvin protested sharply.He was visibly furious. Not only had their plan failed, but his own teammates had also ended up with broken arms. He hadn’t actually seen Luke do anything to them. He just stubbornly believed that Luke was solely responsible.The question lingered, though. How did he do it? And how could he possibly do it without anyone noticing?On top of that, why had their arms snapped right at the middle of the wrist bones?Even a normal accident wouldn’t break bones that cleanly.“You’re going too far, Melvin! It was an accident, not Luke’s fault. Why are you blaming him?” Jacob shouted back, angrily pointing a finger at him.“Yeah, seriously. You think he could just break their arms because he felt like it?” Dominic added, clearly irritated by Melvin’s one-sided accusations. “Do you think any normal person could even do somet
Chapter 101 - Taste Of Their Own Medicine
The game continued.Despite Luke’s impressive display earlier, the match went on almost as it had started. Not entirely normal, though, since Melvin’s team still slipped in occasional acts of cheating here and there, as if it were second nature.The score was now fifteen to eleven, still in favor of Melvin’s group. Thanks to Jacob’s renewed energy, he had finally managed to score three points, while Luke and Dominic contributed one point each.It was clear now that they were keeping up with the game, while Melvin’s team had slightly slowed their tempo.“Haha, four points to go, you jerks!” Jacob jeered loudly. He did this every time he scored.Surprisingly, Melvin remained silent, as if he were deeply focused. And in a way, he was. Just not on the game itself, but on signaling his two teammates about when to execute their plan.They had come up with an idea to get physical and deliberately injure Luke, perhaps break his arm or so
Chapter 100 - Quite Unexpected
Several of the spectators almost rose from their seats, their faces frozen in shock while their jaws practically dropped.Some were genuinely stunned, while others were purely amazed after witnessing Luke’s mind-blowing dunk.‘How on earth did he do that?’ was the question almost all of them found themselves asking in their thoughts.Not even Melvin, the tallest among those playing, could pull off what Luke had just done. Yet Luke had done it so casually, almost effortlessly, like a seasoned veteran who had done it a hundred times before.Of course, it wasn’t just the audience who were shocked. Even Melvin and his team were caught completely off guard.“W-What was that?” Melvin asked under his breath, blinking repeatedly as he stared at Luke in disbelief, his body momentarily stiff where he stood.Not only had Luke managed to steal the ball, he had even dunked it without so much effort.Luke’s friends were no different.
Chapter 99 - Too Dirty
The game began.Jacob’s team won the coin toss, so the ball was theirs. He checked the ball and passed it to Dominic, who immediately took control of the play. He dribbled steadily, as if carefully trying to set the team’s tempo from the very start.Luke stayed near the wing, his hands relaxed while he calmly observed the flow of the game. From time to time, he subtly shifted positions to give Dominic an opening. However, the guy assigned to guard him stuck close like glue and refused to let him slip away even for a second.Melvin was the one guarding Jacob. Among the three, Jacob was the only one he recognized as someone who actually knew how to play.“Who’s that fool? Is he your friend?” he taunted mockingly at Jacob.He looked visibly relaxed, wearing a wide, almost smug grin despite the game having already started, as if he already knew they would win.Jacob ignored him completely and positioned himself to receive a pass from
