Sarah opened the door. “Please come in, Mr. Harvey.”
After Harvey entered, Sarah immediately closed the door. In front of her was a man who had been looking down. He was the person in charge of accompanying the VIP. Harvey took out his card and used it on a machine beside the steel door. Realizing that Harvey had opened the door, the man hurriedly approached him. Then after seeing the card Harvey was holding, he realized that Harvey was someone he should respect more. He would instantly lose his job if he ignored him even a little. The man gulped. “My apologies, sir. I'm late to welcome you.” Harvey looked at him casually. He didn't really mind that much. The man then opened the steel door. “Please follow me, sir.” The man walked ahead of Harvey into the room. It turned out that the room had an elevator that led to an underground room. The man pointed to the elevator to let Harvey in. The elevator took them to a secret vault that only this elite jewelry store had. Harvey walked behind the man through the steel doors beside the corridor. Those doors were the rooms where ordinary VIP customers were kept. And among all the doors, there was a large black door, looking the strongest among the other storage doors. The man stopped in front of the door. Then he stood beside it while facing Harvey. “Please, sir. Until now, no one has touched your safe.” Harvey took a step forward while looking at the top of the large door. He smiled a little. “If anyone can touch it, then the security here is pretty lousy.” Sweat began to break out on the guard's temples. He quickly lowered his gaze. What Harvey said seemed like something frightening to him. Harvey pressed his palm against the scan screen in front of the door. A lock sounded open from inside the door. Then Harvey also entered a numeric password. From the center of the door, a silver circle appeared. Harvey then pressed his palm against the circle and closed his eyes. The guard took a few steps back. His heart was racing. In his mind, he was seriously watching what Harvey was doing without blinking. “What a great pressure.” Harvey's mouth whispered a few words. One thing that Harvey had not shown to others while he was Whitley's husband was that Harvey possessed an unusual martial arts technique. He could use the inner power of his body. By attaching his hand to the silver circle. With such an intricate mechanism, this safe was indeed tailor-made for Harvey alone. The sound of gears could be heard clearly as the large door slid open. Harvey then entered. Inside was a large room that felt empty. The entire room was white, with only a table in the center of the room. On top of the table, there was a glowing black box. Harvey walked over and opened the box. Inside, there was a necklace in the shape of a phoenix. Harvey touched and stroked the object several times. “It's been so long...” Harvey took the object and put it on. He closed his eyes, then as he looked up he took a deep breath, then let it out. He felt something new. Harvey turned around and walked out of the room. Automatically, the door of the safe closed again. The man from before came up to Harvey. “Have you taken what you need, sir.” Harvey showed the necklace he was wearing. “Don't let anyone enter this safe!” The man nodded. Somehow the atmosphere became more tense. The man had to swallow his saliva. In his mind, he wondered about all this. “Who is this person? I'm meeting him for the first time, but his aura is so strong. He's definitely not an ordinary person.” There were only a few who had VIP storage access, but this was the first time he had seen one locked in such a way. He was sure that this guest must be more than he imagined. He even subconsciously broke out in a cold sweat and got goosebumps. The two of them then walked out of the storage area. Harvey stepped slightly ahead of the man. After they arrived at the previous place, it turned out that Whitley was still there. He proudly stood at a slight angle and also folded his arms in front of his chest. “Oh, did you finally get kicked out of this place, Harvey?” Whitley said in a very annoying tone. “I already knew that someone like you would want to commit a crime. You were caught trying to steal, weren't you?” Harvey didn't pay much attention to her. He was too lazy to bother with a big mouth like this woman. However, just as Harvey was about to leave, Whitley and Valencia got in front of him. Whitley snorted dismissively. “I think you need to be searched before you leave this place.” Whitley glanced at the name tag of the man behind Harvey. “Jason, check Harvey's entire body.” Harvey paused to exhale. “You don't know about me.” Whitley chuckled. “I know very well who you are. You're a poor, lowly man. One who would commit a crime given the chance. If you've come here, I'm sure that there must be something in your pockets. You need to be searched and reported to the police!” Jason opened his eyes wide. Harvey was a top VIP owner, of course Jason did not allow this ambience become worse. “Be careful what you say, Miss. Mr. Harvey did not do what you are accusing him of. Whoever you are, you are out of line!” Jason furrowed his brows. His heart was racing. He must not make Harvey feel offended by this woman. Hearing that, Whitley was shocked. She immediately pointed at Harvey's face. “I know this person very well. He is the one who will harm you.” Jason shook his head while glaring. “Stop it, Miss. You're so annoying!” Whitley frowned. She wondered why this waitress seemed to be desperately defending Harvey? Harvey grabbed Jason's shoulders. “Oh yes, I have a request. Don't let these two women to stay in here.” Harvey's eyes fell on Whitley. Whitley suddenly opened her eyes wide. Especially when she saw Jason respond to Harvey with a nod. “Alright. Security, evict them!” This elite jewelry store was a very prestigious store in the city. People who wore jewelry from this store would be the talk of their social groups. If Whitley lost access to come here, then she would also lose her social status in the eyes of her friends. Whitley with a flushed face pointed back at Harvey. “Why are you even following his orders? Did he buy anything here?” Jason firmly replied, “Mr. Harvey didn't buy. He just picked something up.” Whitley chuckled. “He didn't buy anything? How can you obey someone like this? Look, I buy a lot of stuff here. You can't kick me out, Harvey should be the one you kick out!” Jason shook his head. “What Mr. Harvey did is worth more than the things you bought. Hand back the things you brought and get out of here!” Whitley was stunned. She couldn't believe that Jason would say that so bluntly. A moment later, two security guards arrived and held Whitley and Valencia's hands. Jason took back the toot bag of jewelry Whitley had just bought. Both of them were forcibly dragged by the security and released when they were outside the store. Both of their faces became very red, especially since there were many people watching. Whitley clenched her fists. “You bastard! Why did he kick me out like this?” Valencia wrinkled her forehead as she looked inside the shop. Her heart was racing after that incident. “Whitley, isn't your ex-husband a rich man? He can order the people in this shop around at will.” Whitley clucked her mouth. “Harvey? Rich? You are kidding! He's just a loser.”

Vanessa's steps echoed softly on the deserted sidewalk. She walked down the city streets with her head slightly bowed, her face hidden behind a mask and wide brimmed hat. Duskvale, usually bustling with tourists and family laughter, now felt like a town that was holding its breath.The storefronts are empty, the lights glow drearily without visitors. The occasional sound of a passing vehicle can be heard, but not many. Fear has imprisoned people behind the doors of their homes. No more couples holding hands in the park, or children chasing birds in the square.Vanessa stared at the mostly empty convenience store shelves - no rice, no instant noodles, not even a few bottles of mineral water. Panic buying had changed the face of Duskvale. Purchasing power declined, not because of a lack of money, but because of a numbing fear.Vanessa had just left the Q-Entertainment building, wearing a dark coat that waved in the afternoon breeze. This time, there was no Jordan by her side-no lighthe

“This kind of purchase is excessive!” snapped a minister, his voice echoing throughout the courtroom.The veins in his neck bulged, his face red with emotion. His hands clenched on the table, his fingers trembling with rage.“Look at what’s happening!” he continued, his voice rising. “Panic buying is rampant! Duskvale’s economy is in shambles, and now... other cities are starting to follow suit!” His gaze was accusatory, as if blaming the governor for all the turmoil.Other officials began to whisper, the atmosphere in the room suddenly tense. But Governor Westhaven sat calmly, his face expressionless, as if listening to a weather report. However, it was that very calmness that only fueled the minister’s anger further.Governor Westhaven let out a long sigh, a heavy exhalation escaping his lips like a burden he couldn’t shed. His forehead furrowed deeply, signaling growing confusion. His gaze was vacant as he stared at the table, as if trying to guess what Harvey was truly planning.W

A man scooped up all the vegetables with both hands and stuffed them into the trolley in a hurry, as if his life depended on it. Without pause, he scooped up dozens of sausage wrappers and threw them in roughly, nearly spilling the trolley."Honey!" he called out to the woman behind who was also pushing the trolley. His breathing was heavy, his face full of tension. "Take as much as you can! Don't forget the condiments! I'll get some beer!"The woman nodded quickly without replying, then quickly split up. They blended into the sea of people, jostling for shelf after shelf. This was no ordinary shopping. This was a scramble, a mass panic. All hands claw, grab, and scramble, as if the world will end in a matter of hours.In another corner, a homeless man stands still, clutching a shabby loaf of bread-the only thing he's managed to grab. His hands trembled, his eyes darting around the long line in front of the cashier. The change in his pocket was barely enough to pay for the meal. But h

"General, that power should not be used by humans," Jordan said, his voice heavy and stressed. His forehead was sharply creased, reflecting the anxiety he could not hide. "Demonic power will contaminate our world. The balance will be broken and everything could fall into chaos."Harvey walked slowly, circling the table with heavy steps. Each step was echoing, as if compressing the air between them. He stopped right in front of Jordan. His gaze was sharp, piercing like the blade of an invisible sword."Of course I know," he murmured, low but firm.Harvey's brow furrowed deeply. His eyes hardened as he stared straight into his subordinate's face."The question is," he said in an almost cold voice, "who would be stupid enough to awaken that power?"The arrival of Jack Orland and Hudson was no coincidence. There was a force behind the scenes-a person, or even a whole organization-that orchestrated the whole thing. The people who wielded the Devil's power almost never showed themselves. Th

The world stands on two poles of tremendous power.The first comes from the Gods-great entities that radiate holy light, giving life, hope, and peace to all beings. The second comes from the Demons-ancient beings born of darkness, shrouding the world with fear and destruction that creeps silently.Those who are able to control the ki energy open the gates to one of the two paths. The path of light-or the path of destruction.The power of the Gods is warm, clear, like the morning sun breaking through the fog. It heals, guides, and gently burns away the dark.Whereas the Devil's power... was a shadow that crept behind the light. It is cold, gripping, and unforgiving. It destroys not only the body-but also the soul.For those who can reach the power of Gods or Demons, the limits of human strength no longer apply. Even compared to ordinary ki users, they stood far above-like a mountain rising in the middle of the hills.Harvey was one of them. His body was able to absorb and use the powe

“You've lost,” Harvey said, his voice cold as a blade of ice through bone. “Now, tell me, who's your boss?”Hudson widened his eyes. For a moment, the world around him seemed to blur. His chest rose and fell irregularly, and subconsciously, his body began to tremble subtly.“No way... am I scared?” he thought, choking up. His fingertips felt numb, as if the blood refused to flow. Everything slowed down-seconds turned into minutes-and in that void, images of the past slammed into his mind.“Teacher called me a genius. Rare. Irreplaceable. I always completed every mission perfectly. But now? Fear entangles me like invisible shackles?”Hudson's teeth chattered. His jaw tightened, his eyes widened with an almost maniacal look. His gaze pierced Harvey with a fury that was tinged with shame and helplessness.“You-”Harvey pressed Hudson's neck harder. His fingers were like steel pincers that pierced the skin and stopped the flow of breath. Hudson coughed, his face turned red, and his vision
