At one of the Clean Water Company branches, a group of people delivered a large liquid container."What is that?" asked the security guard on the entrance."We're delivering Sodium Hydroxide, like usual," said a man in a yellow suit, handing over a document. "Here is the paperwork.""What is that for?" asked the security guard, reading the document."Well, it is a liquid applied after the filtration process to adjust the pH levels of the water. It ensures the water is not too acidic or alkaline, which helps prevent pipe corrosion and ensures safe drinking water," the transporter explained.The security guard looked indifferent, yawning as he let them pass. As the group in yellow suits entered, they met a group of people in white clothing who wore badges from Clean Water Company."Let us take over from here," the man in white clothes said."No," the man in the yellow suit replied firmly. "We have orders to pour this liquid ourselves to ensure nothing happens.""Sure, everyone here is o

“You look so happy today,” Ava asks, wondering.Alex looks at them both and can't help but admire the two beauties. They are mesmerizing, especially with their sleeveless shirts that show off their white ivory skin.“It’s just a report from the military,” Alex continues, taking a bite of his food.“Are you still working with the military?” Eva glances at Alex with her beautiful eyes and long eyebrows.“Officially, no, I was fired,” Alex sighs. “But some friends in the military take pity on me and give me some outsourcing jobs, like yesterday’s task to run a war simulation and find problems from possible attacks.”Both of them seem interested in what Alex has done.Alex coughs, unable to bear the intense gaze of two pairs of beautiful eyes. He continues, “This is military top secret, I hope you both can keep it.”Ava touches her heart. “If it is secret, I don’t think it’s okay to share with us, right?”“Well, it’s a secret now, but in the next few hours, it will not be secret anymore,”

War is not a place for people with soft hearts."Let’s think from the opposite view," Alex said, turning on another simulation about the water poisoning that spread through the West Empire. "Aslan worked with Gavin to poison all the drinking water from the Clean Water company.""Do you know how many people got poisoned?" Alex asked, turning on the television. The news continued to report on the patients, the count of those affected rising steadily. It had already reached 20 million people from all over the West Empire."Can you imagine 20 million people contaminated with the poison, and all of them having about a 90% chance of death?" Alex looked at Ava, his eyes narrowing. "If you think 400 thousand people dead is cruel, what about this tactic killing 20 million people?"Eva stared at Alex, her eyes welling up with tears. "Please tell me why the Empire let this happen. Is it because we are Western Empire citizens? So the Empire let Aslan's people poison us?""First, people need to k

Benito Kosh was desperately scanning for the source of the attack on their aircraft. “Where are all these attacks coming from?” he shouted, his voice tinged with frustration and fear.He had already warned his crew to be vigilant, urging them to check every possible direction. They had even checked above the sky and around, leaving no stone unturned. The radar was operating at full capacity, driven by his instincts.“They’re from below!” a staff member yelled.Benito’s heart sank. He knew that if the attacks were coming from below, it would be harder to detect them on radar, especially if the objects were small and using the terrain’s contours to their advantage.“They’re using ground missiles,” Benito realized. “Tell everyone to ascend to a higher altitude, where the missiles can’t reach!”But as the aircraft began to climb, a suicide drone carrying an explosive payload followed closely behind. It struck with precision, destroying their engines and causing one aircraft after another

The skies were filled with the hum of engines, a fearsome display of the Empire's strength. As they crossed into Aslan territory, they encountered no resistance. The Aslan forces, having thrown everything they had into the failed attack on the Empire, had left their homeland nearly defenseless.Christopher led the fleet straight to the Aslan capital, moving swiftly through the skies without facing a single threat.Meanwhile, in the Aslan palace, chaos reigned. The king and his ministers were locked in a heated argument, desperation clear in their voices.“You said we could win, but now all our soldiers are dead!” the king shouted, his face flushed with anger as he glared at his ministers.“We don’t know how the Empire discovered our plan,” one minister stammered, his eyes darting nervously. “There must be a double agent in our ranks!”“Now, 6,000 Empire aircraft have already crossed our border. What can we do?” another minister cried out, his voice filled with panic.“Tell the soldier

Five minutes before the Aslan spaceship was destroyed, Peter Gavin received a critical command from Benito Kosh. “We will spread in five minutes to all cities of the West Empire,” Benito instructed. “Activate all the rebellions and hold off the Empire's soldiers from attacking us. We will free you and let Drakonia have its freedom again, with you as the president.”Peter quickly cut the connection and immediately gathered his allies across the West Empire. The Gavin Corporation, which Peter led, had long been a part of the rebellion.“It is time for the truth,” Peter Gavin announced on the media channels under their control to entire west Empire citizens. His voice was firm, carrying the weight of the impending battle. “The Empire is trying to kill all of us. We have just received information that the Empire plans to commit genocide, to wipe out the Drakonian people. It is time for us to fight back. If we do not act now, all of us will be killed!”Peter Gavin, the head of one of the l

Alex was sitting on the sofa, watching the news, while Ava and Eva were also seated beside him, their eyes glued to the screen."Alex," she called out, her voice tense. "Has the military already taken down the Aslan aircraft or not? Why hasn’t the Empire released the footage?""Why do you think?" Alex stared back at Ava, believing she would understand his hint.But to his surprise, it was Eva who answered correctly. "The Empire is manipulating the citizens' minds. First, they let Peter control the people to rebel, only to find the truth he was lying to them. Then, the empire purposely released the control media to have Peter speak about the Aslan aircraft, causing the citizens' minds to waver once again."“And what do you think will happen when the people of the Western Empire find out that the Aslan aircraft were already destroyed? They’ll hate themselves for trusting Peter Gavin twice. The Empire is betting that the citizens won’t be foolish enough to believe in Peter or any traitor

"I have something to do," Alex said as he stood up and walked out."Who's going to protect us?" Eva asked, her voice tinged with worry."As long as you don’t walk out from the penthouse, the bodyguards will guard you," Alex replied, having already arranged for military personnel to secure the building."Where are you going?" Ava asked, her curiosity piqued."Somewhere important." With that, Alex headed to the rooftop of the penthouse, where his personal aircraft was already waiting. He had prepared it for emergencies, never realizing he would need it to save Crystal Gavin."That woman," Alex sighed as he piloted the aircraft into the sky. Crystal was unique to Alex—naïve, down to the earth, and kind, a stark contrast to his high ambitions and relentless drive. Her presence grounded him, tethering him to the earth.At the Gavin Mansion.An angry mob was gathering, their fury palpable as they tried to break through the iron gate."Kill all the Gavin family!" one shouted."They poisoned

The bystanders froze in their tracks, eyes widening and ears perking up as the cutting words sliced sharply through the air.Gossip—cruel, relentless gossip—was the sport of choice for nobles bored of their lavish parties and endless luxury, forever eager to mock and crush those already fallen.It had begun quietly, a whisper snaking through the elite circles the night before.The rumor claimed Ophelia D'Arcy had secured her coveted contract solely because she'd tangled intimately with Robert Carrillo.After all, how else could a mediocre figure like D'Arcy have secured a collaboration with the prestigious Golden Guild?In truth, the scandalous rumor seemed disturbingly believable.Robert, noticing the growing audience gathering hungrily around, raised his voice deliberately, theatrically, "Does anyone wonder why Ophelia D’Arcy managed to snag the Golden Guild’s contract?"Alex Leonhard's icy eyes narrowed dangerously as he hissed through gritted teeth, "Oh, enlighten us, Robert—why?"

Alex felt a surge of deep satisfaction flood through him at Viscountess D’Arcy’s pronouncement, his tense shoulders finally easing with relief.Beside him, Ophelia D’Arcy's face blossomed into a serene smile, her long-held anxieties gently melting away.At last, the coveted headship was within her grasp.No longer would she suffer from scornful glances and whispered mockeries.Her parents, whose heads had long been bowed beneath the weight of ridicule, could finally stand tall, pride radiating from every pore.Viscountess D’Arcy turned sharply, eyes glittering with anticipation as she fixed her granddaughter with a piercing stare.“Ophelia, there’s something important I require of you.”“Of course, Grandma,” Ophelia responded immediately, her voice respectful yet wary. “What would you have me do?”The old woman leaned closer, her voice dripping with ambitious fervor. “I want you to personally invite Miss Jessica Golden to tomorrow’s banquet.”She paused, her eyes igniting with fiery e

“Splendid!” Philip sneered, his voice dripping with sarcastic delight.“About damn time! You should've divorced Ophelia ages ago!”“Indeed!” echoed the chorus of the family, their voices merging into a spiteful symphony. “We’ve long accepted the necessity of you cutting loose from Ophelia!”“Yes, divorce her right this instant!” came another sharp voice, resonating with bitter contempt.The family’s collective pride had always recoiled in shame from the day Ophelia tied herself to Alex Leonhard, the poorest excuse for a baron anyone had ever laid eyes on.In the corner, Alex watched quietly, calculating.This uproar provided him the perfect opportunity to sever the marriage he believed had been forced upon him by the manipulations of the Demon King.Once freed from Ophelia, he would fulfill his obligation with the herbal remedy and then ride away to Miracle City, unburdened and unattached.Yet, amidst this chaos, Ophelia’s voice cut sharply through, startling everyone.“Marvelous sug

“What? You—you actually pulled it off?” Philips stammered, his eyes wide with disbelief, panic clawing at his chest.The realization that his precious land would slip right into Ophelia’s grasp gnawed at him mercilessly.“Yes,” Ophelia replied happily. “I met Jessica Golden!”“No way!” Olivia sneered, her voice dripping venomous disbelief.“Absolutely impossible! You’re telling me you got face-to-face with Jessica Golden herself? Don’t make me laugh!”“Oh, I did more than meet her,” Ophelia replied with smug triumph, lifting her chin defiantly."Jessica Golden personally handed me the signed contract.”Her words detonated across the room, stunning silence gripping every heart.Philips slammed his hand violently onto the polished mahogany table, eyes blazing with fury."Ophelia, do you seriously think we’re idiots?” he spat viciously."Jessica Golden of the Golden Guild is a titan among the city's elite. Why in God’s name would she lower herself to even glance in your direction? Do you

Meanwhile, Ophelia stood anxiously in the crowded hall, surrounded by people all impatiently waiting for their appointments.A few guests recognized her right away. Their eyes narrowed with contempt as they leaned toward each other, whispering loud enough for her to hear every cruel word.“Oh look, isn’t that the granddaughter of Viscountess D’Arcy?” one noblewoman said with a sneer, her voice oozing mockery.“The D’Arcy family has one foot in the grave, yet they still shamelessly show up here hoping to grab a piece of the Golden Guild project.”“I heard the old viscountess married her granddaughter off to the poorest baron in Haventon. Pathetic. And now she’s here? Maybe she should be peddling potions in the back alleys instead.”Those bitter words quickly drew attention, and the gathered elite cast scornful eyes at Ophelia, barely hiding their cruel amusement behind silk fans and smirks of mockery.Ophelia tightened her fists till her nails bit deeply into her palms.She muttered so

Ophelia D’Arcy's voice sliced through the tense air like sharpened ice, her gaze colder than frostbite as she snapped, “I'm sorry, Grandpa Carrillo, but I don’t recall ever needing your help. And watch your filthy mouth! You're old enough to have grandchildren who are my friends—don't you have a shred of dignity left?”Robert Carrillo stood there stunned, his jaw hanging slack in disbelief.Rage and confusion battled across his wrinkled face. “Ophelia, I’m doing you a favor! Why are you still defending this worthless fool? Wake up and see reality—yes, I'm older, but I have wealth that could drown this pathetic bastard. What could he possibly offer you?”Alex Leonhard’s eyes flashed dangerously as he seized a glass from the table and hurled its icy contents straight into Robert's startled face.Dripping with chilling menace, Alex warned softly, “Better wake up, old man. Consider that a kindness—if I'd struck you with my hand, you’d already be dead.”“You insolent bastard!” Robert sputt

Looking at her parents, who were mercilessly ridiculing Alex Leonhard, Ophelia D’Arcy let out an exasperated sigh. Her voice, trembling with emotion yet fiercely determined, interrupted the mockery.“Dad, Mom, stop blaming Alex for everything. It was my decision. I just can't bear seeing our family mocked and humiliated any longer.”“Haven’t we endured enough shame all these miserable years?"Her voice softened slightly, eyes distant with a glimmer of uncertain hope."Besides, grandmother won't accept any more excuses this time. Someone has to step up to the challenge. Who knows? Maybe fortune will finally smile upon me.”Ophelia’s mother, incredulous and visibly panicked, blurted out harshly, “Have you lost your mind?”“Even if your grandmother herself crawled on her knees, begging at their gates, they wouldn't even glance her way! You’ll bring nothing home but disgrace!”Her father's eyes hardened as he snapped sharply, “Ophelia this time you made a mistake.”From the sidelines, Ale

Ophelia nearly leaped from her seat in shock, her eyes bulging wide as she whispered harshly, "Alex, have you gone completely mad? It’s utterly impossible! The Golden Guild would never partner with an insignificant family like ours!"But Alex merely smiled, calm and unnaturally confident, his voice steady as he whispered persuasively, "Relax, Ophelia. You’re always saying I’m nothing more than a jobless fool. So why not let this fool try?”“I'll prepare the proposal. It'll carry your name—who knows? Maybe fortune will finally smile upon us.""Alex—" Ophelia hesitated, uncertainty wavering in her voice."Come now, Ophelia," Alex urged more insistently, eyes blazing with unexpected determination."We have nothing left to lose, and everything to gain. At worst, we fail quietly, but at best—we rise triumphantly.”“Besides, look at your grandmother. She’ll erupt into flames if no one steps up."Ophelia felt herself slipping into resignation—after all, they were already at the bottom.What

“Fine,” Alex exhaled deeply, the weight of guilt hidden beneath his stoic exterior. “Exactly how much is this damned debt?”“Half a million,” Peter replied tersely.“And?” Alex pressed impatiently.“I've settled them all. I refuse to attend university while people whisper that I still owe money.”With a dramatic flourish, Alex swung his bag onto the table, swiftly drawing out half a million dollars in crisp bills and slamming them down.Peter and Yuri stared, mouths agape.“Take this cash and get yourselves to university immediately!”“Where did you get this money?” Yuri gasped, eyes wide with disbelief.“I won it gambling,” Alex smirked devilishly. “Now leave before I gamble it all away again!”Peter snatched the money greedily, gripping it tightly. Yuri paused at the threshold, turning back briefly, whispering softly, “Thank you.”She bolted out into the night.Soon after, Ophelia approached Alex, urgency blazing in her eyes. “Alex, Grandma’s summoned us to the D’Arcy mansion.
