The Siege Beneath
President Lee refused to surrender. Even after his forces had suffered a humiliating defeat, even after Calvin had turned the tide of battle, he remained relentless—driven by obsession, by fury, by the burning need to crush Barion and everything it stood for.“Mobilize everyone,” he snarled into the comms. “All divisions. Not just the army. I want the Shadow Assassins deployed as well. Every last one.”“Yes, sir,” came the reply, cold and mechanical.Though Hugo had been marked for death and presumed dead, President Lee still clung to the blueprint the mysterious man had created. The strategy to destroy Barion’s energy core—Fountain’s Heart—was still in motion. But now, Lee added his own brutal twist: a scorched-earth order.“If the people of Barion want to hide like rats,” he hissed, “then we’ll dig them out like rats. I want every Shadow Assassin scouring every tun
The Photograph
Calvin stared at the photograph in his hand—a weathered, yellowing picture that had clearly been folded and handled too many times. The edges were frayed, and faint creases ran through the center, but the image was still clear enough. The boy in the photo had sharp, focused eyes and a faint scowl on his face. Something in his expression struck Calvin deeply—like looking into a mirror from the past. The attached message from his trusted aide replayed in his mind: “Confirmed. The illegitimate child is alive. New identity untraceable for now.”He stood silently in the garden, wind brushing through the leaves above him as he processed the revelation. His heart pounded—not in fear, but in the overwhelming weight of possibility. That child… could be the one. Could be the same person who nearly killed him. Could be his half-brother.Calvin walked back into the clinic with his brows furrowed, the photo clutched tightly in one hand.
Truth in the Garden
The mysterious man stared at the tray of food before him, untouched, growing cold.But his gaze wasn’t on the meal—it was on Calvin.“Why?” he finally growled, voice low and edged with disdain. “What do you want from me? You save me, clean me up, feed me like a stray dog. What’s next? You going to ask me to swear loyalty to you? Or maybe you want a pet assassin to do your dirty work?”His voice rose, sharp with venom. “Or are you just fattening me up before you throw a leash around my neck?”Calvin, leaning casually against the doorframe, let out a soft laugh. “You really don’t know how to take a moment of peace, do you?”The man’s eyes narrowed dangerously.“I don’t want anything from you,” Calvin said, stepping into the room. “Eat the food. Rest. Then leave, if you want.”The man blinked, taken aback for just a split second. &
The Enemy Who Became a Patient
The system’s alarm blared in Calvin’s ear like a siren, shrill and relentless, as if the world itself was screaming at him.[WARNING: Incoming Aerial Strike – Coordinates Locked – Estimated Impact in 7 seconds.]A sharp whirr followed—mechanical, hungry, deadly. Calvin’s head snapped upward. The sky above the battlefield twisted with black smoke and glimmers of metal. Then, cutting through the haze, a sleek black helicopter emerged, its blades slicing the air with cold precision. It hovered like a vulture over a carcass, silent and lethal.Calvin’s breath caught. The insignia on its side—a coiled serpent wrapped around a crimson eye—was unmistakable.“Lee’s elite unit,” he muttered, voice grim.Then he saw it: a glint of metal dropping from the undercarriage. A steel cylinder. Too small to be a missile. Too large to be anything benign.A bomb.Time seemed to freez
The Fall of the Hound
Blood streamed from the forehead of the mysterious man, soaking the latex mask until crimson tears ran down its smooth surface. His chest heaved. His breath came in shallow, ragged pulls. Opposite him, Calvin wasn’t faring much better. Sweat clung to his brow, and blood marked his robe where bruises and cuts had bloomed.Both stood amid the cracked battlefield, surrounded by the aftermath of earth-shattering blows, smoke-streaked skies, and upturned soil. The once-golden field of the Fountain had become a war-scarred arena.“You're impressive,” Calvin said, voice hoarse but steady. “You’ve matched me this far without any magical enhancements… just your body, your fists, your anger. That’s not something I take lightly.”The mysterious man said nothing, his eyes narrowing.“You should walk away,” Calvin continued. “This fight—it’s meaningless now. President Lee abandoned you the
Beneath the Earth, Above the Truth
The outer wall groaned.Cracks spidered across its surface like lightning frozen in stone. Dust rained down. A moment later—boom—the first section of the ancient barrier collapsed inward with a thunderous roar, revealing the luminous core of the Fountain beyond.The enemy troops surged forward, eager to claim their prize.And then… they stopped.Dead in their tracks.There, standing calmly amid the golden light that poured from the breach, was a figure cloaked in black, arms crossed, eyes cold.Calvin Hudson.Alive.Waiting.“What—?!”“Is that—?”“He’s here—!”Panic rippled through the ranks. They’d thought him dead. Or crippled. But there he stood—untouched, unwavering.And then he moved.Calvin raised one hand.The earth answered.In an instant, the ground beneath the sold
