VKBoyHi guys, when I'm writing, the automatic spelling correction is changing the word Sakeda to Cicada, and I've been editing all those changes, but one or two might slip my radar, so if you ever see Cicada when it should be Sakeda, you now know what happened, lol.

CHAPTER 376
Many rankers in the top thousand were very much interested in what’s happening at Rose Park.However, they did not receive an invitation card.Even the ones who were acquainted with Denver in the past weren’t invited, which made them wonder what Denver was up to.The council president Natalia was talking to the special slave squad, SSS, made out of the six handpicked slaves for the sole purpose of infiltration and spying.Each of these six slaves were specialized in a certain skill. Together, they were capable of subduing even a royal knight.Nobody other than Natalia knew of their identities.“Go to Rose Park and observe everything,” Natalia told them, tossing two photos on the floor. “A lot of people will attend the launching of the port, so you will definitely get an opportunity. When you get the chance, kill the two wings of Denver. One is Green Fang Sheryl, and the name of the second one is Catherine. Without them, he’s going to fall sooner or later.”Because Natalia had received
CHAPTER 375
Diane put her everything into the swings, while making sure that the ax cut the logs as cleanly as she could.One thing she realized was that the logs Jamie had reattached were harder to cut than before.But she didn’t let that stop her.Taking Sandy’s guidance, she optimized her swinging movement. As she kept doing it, she forgot about time.She was supposed to be completely tired, but her muscles were pulling out every last bit of energy reserves she had.Many minutes later, she arrived at a state where every swing trembled the tips of her fingers to the ends of her hairs.At the same time, her swings now got much cleaner, and the sound they made was also strikingly different from the morning.From inside the home, Jamie could hear the sound of the ax moving through the air, and it brought a surprised smile on his face.“She’s achieved that state already. It doesn’t seem like a fluke since she’s been maintaining that state for five minutes now.”He walked out through the back door,
CHAPTER 374
In the afternoon, Diane finished swinging the ax more than ten thousand times, and her shoulders weren’t able to lift the ax anymore.She was done for the day.Even though Jamie told her to keep going, she didn’t want to hold the ax for another week at least.She was heading inside the house, but she stopped after seeing Jamie hold the ax.He stood by the logs and swung the ax down just once.All the logs were neatly cut in half. He waved his hand, and they got rearranged in a nice-looking heap.Diane’s jaw dropped. “H-How the hell did you do that?”“You’ve seen it with your own eyes,” he replied.“Aura… can I also do that if I use aura?”“Well, you can go and take a rest for a few days, then try again,” Jamie answered. “If you keep working like this, then it might take you three to four years to manifest aura.”Diane frowned. “I-I can’t waste that much time. Didn’t you say that ax-cutting is the best way to bring out aura?”“But you’ve got no talent,” Jamie snorted. “You don’t have t
CHAPTER 373
Denver was talking with someone on the mobile. “Yes, Mr. Darrell. I plan to invest in your bank, so I would like it if you come to the event tonight and show your support to me.”“I have heard that you bought a rare item for billions of dollars, sir,” Darrell, the president of Den bank, said. “Do you still have enough money to invest in my bank? If so, how many shares can you buy?”“As much as thirty percent,” Denver replied.Darrell’s eyes grew wide for a second, but then he squinted his eyes. “Are you aware of what you’re saying, sir? Though the public information says that Den bank is worth only a few billion dollars, if we add all of our hidden assets, its real worth is actually close to six trillion dollars. We’re worth more than the GDP of Britain and India combined.“Unless you have at least two trillion dollars, you can’t invest the percentage you said you would. While I don’t doubt the Hawkers’ economy, I doubt you have enough say to get two trillion dollars out of your famil
CHAPTER 372
While the preparations for the port opening ceremony were happening, Sheryl was out in the ocean, creating channels of pathways with connected wooden logs that would help the ships to travel in different paths and dock at a particular spot, without having to worry about colliding with others.On top of that, she had to grow thorny, poisonous plants on the seabed near the shore so that they helped repel any dangerous sea monsters that might be attracted to the noise.Normally, beasts would avoid walking toward noisy places, except unless there were truly powerful ones similar to how lions would dare swim even in a stream full of crocodiles.Sheryl knew that the attitude of some of the sea beasts was nothing shorter than that of lions.So, she had to take extra precautions, even though she was depleting her energy reserves in doing so.Once everything was taken care of, she was on her way back to Rose Tower.Along the way, she happened to hear the sound of a procession.A group of peopl
CHAPTER 371
Diane kept cutting the wood in the backyard, which was quite spacious than she thought.She swung the ax hundreds of times and cut dozens of logs, but she didn’t experience anything different.“You said I’ll feel something, but I’m not feeling anything,” she complained to Jamie who was shaving his beard.“Well, I’m not surprised. Your talent is rock-bottom,” he replied.“Ugh, I’m asking for your advice.”“I’ve already shown you the path. You just need to keep doing it,” Jamie said. “Aura isn’t something you can just manifest just from swinging the ax a hundred or a thousand times.”“Then why the hell did you give me this task?” Diane tossed the ax away.“You have to swing it a million times,” Jamie added.Diane’s mouth dropped. “W-What? A million times? Are you trying to kill my shoulders?”“Shoulders are the most mobile joints in the human body. They are only going to get stronger since ax-cutting movement is natural,” Jamie said. “Don’t ask questions and keep doing what you’re told.
