Shenny clenched her fists so tightly that her knuckles turned white.Across the crowd, Vlad's glare burned into Alex, his eyes seething with hatred.Alex was openly tarnishing the Bolton family’s reputation.Noticing Shenny and Vlad’s hostile stares, Alex smirked inwardly.‘Typical of the Boltons,’ he thought. ‘When they couldn’t handle the truth, they pointed fingers. If they had nothing to hide, why fear being exposed?’“The truth does not change according to your ability to stomach it!” Alex said to shenny and, clearing his throat theatrically.“So, students,” he announced, slipping into a teacher’s tone.“Today, I’ll teach you how to create a Fireball Inscription, step by step. Follow carefully, and you’ll be able to launch a fireball.”The students’ eyes lit up with excitement.Elder Grey Robes, Edison, and Roberto exchanged shocked glances. It was unheard of—a new student teaching the craft of inscriptions, and a high-rank fireball one at that.Even they struggled with it!“Take

Alex’s sharp words sliced through the air, striking directly at the Bolton family's storied reputation, all while he maintained an innocent façade.Shenny and Vlad glared daggers at him, their faces taut as they struggled to contain their mounting fury.A ripple of murmurs spread through the assembled students."Wait, so the first house master of the Bolton family was like that?" one student whispered."I heard he was a gold-rank Enhance Fighter and a master of inscriptions," another replied."Supposedly the creator of the sixteen famous Bolton Flame inscriptions. Maybe it's all just talk.""Never thought the Scarlet Sunburst was copied from some ancient book," a third student mused."I've read about inscriptions," someone added. "If they come from ancient texts, the source should be mentioned—not claimed as original work."The whispers grew louder, each one chipping away at the Bolton family's integrity.Those who once admired their inscription mastery now questioned if the family ha

The gray-robed elder nodded thoughtfully. "Roberto, arrange a library clerk position for him.""Yes!" Roberto responded promptly.He knew of the elder's fondness for talented individuals.Despite Alex's lackluster innate ability, his profound knowledge—like being able to read the Book of the Fire God—made him exceptional.As a library clerk, Alex could delve deeper into such ancient texts.In Miracle City, most people prioritized cultivating their combat abilities.Few invested time in studying ancient books. The elder's arrangement also served to protect Alex.Working inside the school as part of the Institute, the Bolton family would find it harder to suppress him.But did Alex fear the Bolton family's suppression?In his past life, he might have cowered, but not now. He wouldn't swallow his grievances. He had a score to settle with the Boltons.Shenny glared at Alex with cold hatred. "I'll remember this!" she spat.Vindictive by nature and as his teacher, she had plenty of ways to

"Right," Ethan nodded, his eyes filled with determination as he lifted the talent crystal.Carefully, he channeled his mana into it.As his energy flowed, the crystal began to glow, its light growing brighter with each passing moment.Warm hues bathed Ethan's face, highlighting his focused expression.Within the crystal, tiny specks of light ignited, swirling and dancing like fireflies trapped in glass.Despite the crystal's brilliance, Ethan knew he still had a way to go before reaching the esteemed 1-star Bronze Enhanced Fighter rank.But the intensity of the glow was promising.Around him, his classmates watched with bated breath, their gazes fixed on the luminous crystal.Each shimmering speck represented a unit of mana, filling the bottom of the long crystal. Numbers marked the height of the mana; the more potent it was, the higher it filled the crystal."Ethan, you're improving so fast! You already have 61 mana!" Carlos exclaimed, unable to contain his excitement.With a mana of

In the past few days, Alex had been busy sharing various cultivation techniques tailored to each student.Some found it hard to understand their new methods, and Alex patiently guided each of them.Finally, they all settled into the right techniques, and for the first time, they felt progress beyond anything they’d achieved with the institute’s methods.“Alex, when we reach the Bronze level, and even become a noble later, we'll always think of you as our leader. That will never change.” Gratitude filled every student’s voice, each of them feeling deeply indebted to Alex.Alex chuckled, “Remember, no matter how potent the cultivation technique, if you’re not diligent, it’ll be useless. Reaching the highest level also depends on your hard work.”One of the students quickly chimed in, “Leader, I don’t need to reach the highest level. I’ll work hard in cultivation and training. I’ll be happy if I can reach the 1-star Silver Rank as an enhanced fighter.”“Silver Rank?” Alex shook his head,
The Indestructible Alexander Chapter 279
Ethan, Carlos, and the other students were progressing even faster in their cultivation.Ethan, in particular, was advancing rapidly; he was already approaching the 1-star Bronze Rank, nearing the 100 mana point threshold.One could only imagine the surge in power they’d experience as their mana levels continued to rise.Reaching 1-star Bronze Rank or 100 mana points in two months didn’t seem impossible for Alex either.He might even aim for 2-star with 200 points, or 3-star at 300.During the next test, what expression would Shenny wear if she saw his unexpected progress?Meanwhile, in the fighter apprentice class, the seats for Alex and his group of commoner students had been empty for days.No one knew where they’d gone.Cassandra, aware of Alex’s busyness, hadn’t dared to disturb him, but despite her own cultivation progress, a lingering ache in her body wouldn’t subside.Finally, she gathered her courage and sent him a message, waiting patiently.She asked to meet at the training

As night enveloped the training grounds, the moon cast a silver glow over everything below.Alex made his way to the agreed spot, a single bench at the corner of the training area, the most secluded one.Under the soft lunar light, Cassandra stood gracefully, her jet-black hair cascading over her shoulders.Her delicate features and elegant demeanor made her seem almost ethereal—a beauty rivaling Sofie’s.“I thought you weren’t coming,” Cassandra said, her eyes meeting his.“I always keep my promises,” Alex replied with a faint smile. “No matter how busy I am, helping you comes first.”“Thank you,” she whispered, lowering her gaze as she blushed, her voice soft with gratitude.Alex noticed she had dressed more elegantly than usual, in a white silk dress that accentuated her figure, flowing from her shoulders to her knees.The hem revealed her perfect form, shaped by years of diligent training.“Your injury should be improving,” Alex said as they both sat on the bench, gently taking he

“Oh, right, Alex—you've angered the Bolton family. You need to be careful,” Cassandra warned, her expression serious.She knew firsthand how ruthless the Boltons could be.Years ago, her family, the Hathaways, had fallen into one of their traps, losing more than 70% of their property.Forced into an alliance with the Boltons, they had yet to recover fully and were on the verge of losing their noble status.“I’m aware,” Alex replied with a faint smile.“The Boltons are too worried about their reputation to act against me openly. They’ll likely wait a few months before making a move. By then, I’ll be ready.”Seeing his calm confidence, Cassandra felt reassured.With Alex, no problem seemed too big, and her admiration for him deepened.Without him, her life would have felt so empty.She discovered a paradox: loving him until it hurt left no more room for pain, only for deeper love.Even if he never reciprocated her feelings, she resolved to stay by his side until he noticed her devotion.

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. You m

“You're right…” Michael whispered hoarsely, his voice dripping with bitter resignation.He dropped his gaze to the floor, unable to meet anyone’s eyes as he imagined the volcanic fury that would soon erupt from his father and his grandfather Baron Dunsmore.He had utterly destroyed their family’s empire in one reckless move.He could already see their grand barony plunging into poverty, spiraling down into disgrace, just like Alex Leonhard’s pitiful house."I—I have to get home. Immediately," Michael stammered, dread gripping his heart like an iron fist.In no time at all, scandalous whispers stormed through the streets of Haventon, spreading faster than wildfire—The Golden Guild had brutally expelled the proud Dunsmore family.Rumors flew thick and vicious, speculation rife with venom.Though no one knew exactly what grave sin had provoked the Guild’s wrath, it was clear the Dunsmores had committed an unforgivable transgression.Overnight, their vast fortune shriveled, their lofty st
