“I understand”

He frowns as he ends the phone call, Natalie blocked his view immediately.

“Can your dad help”

“He can't”

Robert covers his face with both of his palms.

“This is the Mayor orders, my dad possibly can't do anything”

Natalie's heart vibrated, she squats on the floor with more tears streaming down from her face, she would have to quit school, the contract working time is twenty hours daily, at this rate, she is never going to graduate.

Her body was shaking, it's because of that animal, that pauper.

Robert faces Natalie.

“It's not over yet, my dad says they are having a meeting with the Mayor tomorrow, he will ask his boss to talk to him, at least you are still a student, he will lessen the working time”

“What about the years, can he help with that…. it's twenty years, twenty years!”

She will be forty before her contract expires, that is insane. Totally insane.

Robert massaged his forehead, with a sign of disappointment written on his face.

“That is the highest he can do. Let just pray this even works”

Natalie suddenly felt sick, she felt like throwing up, but the rage inside was making her body extremely hot. She stands up and roars.

“So Jason just got to walk away from this. This is not right at all”

Her voice was turning into a tearful one.

“This is meant for Jason, Jason is the one that is supposed to sign the contract not me, now he just gets to walk away, this is not fair at all, Not good at all”

Robert's cheeks moved when he heard Natalie words, although he is worried about her current condition, but he couldn't ask for a better outcome than this.

“Who said he is going scouts free from this”

He faces Jade.

“Jason will be killed tonight, Mr. Landon has sent some men after him, his life ends tonight!”

Mr. Landon texted him a while ago asking for all sorts of information about Jason, only a fool won't understand what Mr. Landon motives are.

Jade's face brightens up, there is no way Mr. Landon will let Jason live. Jason might even be dead already.

“That bastard doesn't deserve to live, he went overboard!”

Natalie's heart beat returns to normal when she hears Robert's words, she can't wait to hear the good news tomorrow or see the dead body.

“Yes, that serves him right, he should die for what he did to me”

**

Jason comes down from the bus station, he still can't believe that he is from a prestigious family, and even the Mayor of Ocean Berry is one of his disciples.

He finds this difficult to believe in a way, but the ring is real, something is expanding inside his body, and he is gaining knowledge of things he doesn't know before, he knows how long it will take him to get to the dormitory, and he also knows that five people are following him from behind.

Jason halted his movement.

“What do you want”

He voiced out without facing them. Five men emerged from the shadows, the man in the middle was holding a cigarette, he uttered in a cocky manner.

“That is sharp for an amateur, but you only discovered these morons”

His eyes moved to the men beside him, he coughed out a large smoke.

“I am sorry kid, but our boss wants you dead”

Jason turned to face them, he had figured that out already, who would follow a kid inside a narrow shortcut, and their movement was faster immediately he entered the alley.

“Is your boss name Joe Landon”

The man throws his cigarettes away and steps on it.

“It doesn't matter, kid. What matters is that you are going to die today”

The man and his men launched forward to Jason without wasting any time.

Jason's eyebrows pushed down, these men are far stronger than the bodyguard that were following Mr. Landon earlier, they seem to have reached a certain stage that differentiate them from a normal fighter.

Their boss is even more powerful, Jason balled his hand into a fist, he can handle one of them, but several will be quite difficult to handle, neither the case, it's his life or theirs.

The men wanted to attack when a car light suddenly shone through the narrow alley, the car was at the entrance of the alley, the brightness of the light revealed everything inside the alley, even the sands on the floor could be seen.

“What the fuck is this!!”

One of the men shouted as he shielded his eyes from the bright light.

The boss was trying to capture the people inside the car, but he couldn't see anything.

“Who the fuck are these people”

One of the men shouted again, feeling irritated by the obstruction of the flow.

The car door opened, and three people emerged from inside, they stepped to the front of the car and the front light switched off instantly.

The place was even darker than before, a heavy breeze suddenly passed through the alley, it vibrated Bobby and his men's clothes, and the sound of footsteps was heard next.

Bobby's face darkens, these people are trying to play mind games with them. Do they think that they are some kind of local gang, they probably think that they are thieves.

“Go fuck these people up!”

Bobby men screamed as they launched forward to the people approaching them, their screaming sound halted immediately they entered the darkness.

Bobby eyebrows raised a little, what the hell is going on, he is not sensing his men's pressure anymore, they haven't even engaged in battle yet.

He tried to sense the presence ahead of him, but he got nothing, a loud bang sound followed next.

One of Bobby's men was sent flying to Bobby direction, he collapsed close to Bobby, his head was twisted to his back.

Bobby heart kicked, what the fuck is this. Three loud kicking sound followed immediately, and three of Bobby men were sent flying to his direction, they crashed close to him. 

They were in the same condition as the first one.

What the fuck is this.

Bobby's heart was pounding heavily now, he thought these people were normal individuals, but this is not normal, how can a one-star warrior die so easily, without even getting to throw a fist.

Who the fuck are these people.

Somebody finally emerged from the darkness, he was standing around 206 cm tall, his presence seemed to have seized the movement of the air in the surrounding.

Bobby heart beat was racing, his eyes moved to the man face, and he collapsed to his knees, what the fuck has he done, the night king himself, Giovanni Hades.

    At that moment, Summer slowly exhaled, trying to calm the storm in her chest. Her fingers tightened around the edge of the table, but her shoulders dropped ever so slightly. She was beginning to calm down.Deep inside her heart, she knew she had done her best. She had pushed herself farther than she thought she could. And even though the pressure was still there—heavy, loud, and alive in her chest—there was also a quiet voice reminding her that this time, she wasn’t alone.She turned her head to look at Jason, who was standing beside her, arms crossed, with a calm smile playing on his lips.“If not for you,” she said quietly, almost like a secret, “I probably wouldn’t have even gotten a very good, not to talk of two excellent results.”Jason didn’t respond immediately. He just looked at her, really looked at her—at the girl who used to doubt herself, used to shrink under pressure. But now? Now she stood straighter. Her eyes were still unsure, but they held something new—strength. The

    At that moment, the announcement of yet another "Excellent" grade hit the room like a silent bomb.Gasps filled the air, followed by a wave of murmuring and confused glances. The scoreboard had just been updated. That was the second "Excellent" mark given out today—and again, no name was revealed.The tension among the participants doubled instantly. Many had only managed “Good” or “Very Good” grades, and even those had taken tremendous effort under pressure. But now? Someone out there had two flawless victories already, and no one knew who it was. The judges were keeping it secret, following protocol, but the mystery only made things worse.One of the groups—Team Zenton from Greenstone Academy—felt the heat even more. They were one of the top-rated teams coming into the competition. Their leader, Callan, had been confident, even a little arrogant, going into the event. So far, they had only received two “Very Good” grades across the rounds, and while that was decent, it wasn’t excell

    At that moment, Jason stepped forward calmly and said, “Well, it’s not going to be difficult.” His voice was firm, filled with quiet confidence. “Since this is just theory, we only need to position the goat in a specific format. If we can get that right, then everything else will follow naturally. It’s all about aligning her body properly to reduce pressure and let things flow.”He paused for a moment, then added, “I’ll do it myself.”Summer, standing a few steps away, looked shocked. Her eyes widened, and she stepped closer immediately. “Jason, what are you trying to do?” she asked in a low, tense voice. “You can’t be serious. That’s too risky. The goat’s body is too small to take that kind of direct energy infusion—what if something goes wrong?”Jason just turned his head slightly and gave her a calm, reassuring smile. “No problem,” he said softly. “Just trust me. Watch me do it. It’s not that difficult. I’ve got this.”Summer hesitated. Her hands clenched by her sides, and she bit

  • CHAPTER 302

    At that moment, when the news quietly slipped across the competition hall that someone had already gotten an “Excellent” in one of the first practical rounds, it didn’t take long for it to spread like wildfire. It was whispered from one booth to another, passed through murmurs and side-eyes like a contagious secret.The first Excellent, That was huge.Students began turning their heads, some rising slightly from their stations, others glancing over the shoulders of their teammates. Their hearts skipped.Because that word didn’t come easily, Getting “Good” was fine.Getting “Very Good” was already impressive.But “Excellent”? That meant perfection. That meant someone had just done the impossible.And more importantly—none of them had done it.The first question that clouded every single participant’s mind was—Who?“Who got it?”“Is it from our team?”“No way…”“Which station was it?”“Was it that quiet girl? Or that group with the glasses boy?”“No, no. I think I saw someone submitting

    At that moment, Soma would then look at Jason with hesitation written all over her face. The metal tool in her hand trembled slightly as she glanced at the cat again, still sedated but visibly uncomfortable. The tension in the room was thick.Then she asked softly, “Jason… what exactly are you suggesting?”Jason didn’t speak right away. He looked at the monitor again, then at Soma, and then at the small, soft animal on the table. He wanted to be careful with his words. He knew how much this meant to her—not just the competition, but the cat’s safety, the ethics of her profession, and her own confidence as a vet.“What I’m saying is…” Jason began carefully, “maybe you shouldn’t do the surgery—not yet.”Soma raised her eyes sharply, confused and anxious. “What?”“I mean…” he stepped closer, lowering his voice to keep her focused. “What if… what if you just try to pull it out gradually, just like you said earlier. You already said it’s risky, I know that. But it’s also risky to operate w

    So Jason couldn't help but needed.“Yes, I know.”His tone was calm, sincere. “I did my research,” he added, gently adjusting the position of the cotton pads and checking the temperature of the sanitizer bottle. “When I heard that this is what you’re studying… veterinary medicine… I just got curious. I’ve been reading and watching things for a while now. I just wanted to understand it better. I wanted to understand you better.”Summer blinked. Her lips parted slightly, and for the first time since this whole mess began today, her cheeks began to glow a soft red.She turned her face a bit, trying not to make it obvious, but the warmth was already spreading.Jason… did research? For her?He actually sat down, on his own, and tried to learn what she did every day—without her asking, without trying to show off. He did it quietly, patiently, just so he could be of help or feel closer to her world.That wasn’t something guys just did.Especially not the Jason she thought she knew.And while
