Chapter 449
At that moment, the words from the Brain seemed to hang in the air like a challenge that could not be taken back. Derrick slowly turned his head, his expression hardening into one of pure disdain. His lips curled into a sneer as his eyes locked on the Brain, eyes so sharp and cold they seemed to carry the weight of an unspoken threat.It was the kind of look that could make lesser men lower their gaze, but the Brain didn’t flinch.In Derrick’s mind, the audacity of this man was almost unbearable. Has he forgotten who I am? he thought. Has he forgotten the bloodline I carry? The family I represent? And yet he daresHis gaze grew darker, more dangerous.At that moment the atmosphere in the hall thickened. Even those who were seasoned warriors, men who had faced battle without blinking, now sat motionless, wary of making the wrong move or even breathing too loudly. Every person in the room understood the weight of this moment.Derrick was not just another high-ranking figure, he was a pi

At that moment, upon hearing what Derrick had just said, the atmosphere inside the hall shifted instantly. It was as if the weight of every gaze in the room tilted in one direction, turning sharply toward the Brain. The murmurs fell silent. Every war king, every top ranking officer, every shadowy figure present wanted to hear what he had to say.The Brain sat with unnerving stillness, his hands folded neatly before him, posture calm, too calm for the growing storm in the room. On the surface, he appeared unbothered, like this was just another council session. But deep inside his mind, a different story played out. His thoughts raced. He knew, without a shred of doubt, that something was brewing. Something dangerous. Something irreversible.He couldn’t piece together why Damien, why the Supreme King would personally involve himself in whatever was about to unfold today. The Supreme King was not the kind of man who wasted his presence on trivial matters. He was not a figure you could un

And into the hall walked six figures.One in front, five flanking him like a protective wall.Their movements were slow, deliberate, commanding. They didn’t need to say a word; their presence alone sucked the tension right out of the room and replaced it with a colder, sharper kind of silence.The kind of silence that warned of something catastrophic.The man in front walked like someone who had never once known fear in his life. His steps echoed with purpose. The five behind him moved in perfect rhythm, their faces expressionless, their eyes scanning everyone and everything.They weren’t just soldiers, they weren’t even ordinary elites.These were his guardians his shields, his fangs. Each one of them a living weapon, and just like that, the weight of the room shifted again.The tension didn’t build this time it vanished, disintegrated into the air, as though the very presence of these six men had seized it… had stolen the fire from everyone’s lungs.They didn’t quite understand what
Chapter 446
Inside the grand marble hall of the Royal Command Citadel, where golden torches flickered against the ancient walls and the floor echoed every subtle shift of boot and armor, all the mighty war kings, seasoned generals, and top-ranking military officers were already seated. Each man and woman wore a uniform that told tales of blood, conquest, and power some more decorated than others, but all equally respected across the lands.Yet today, none of their medals or hardened expressions could hide the unease building in the room.The Supreme King had summoned them without explanation. A royal decree had gone out at dawn, no delay permitted, no excuses tolerated. And now, here they were, seated at the long crescent-shaped war table, their faces stiff, some confused, others whispering quietly, their eyes glancing at one another as though trying to read minds. But no one had answers.Because this wasn’t normal.The Supreme King did not summon meetings like this for mere protocol or greeting
Chapter 445
As Damien descended the stairs, his footsteps were unnervingly calm, almost silent against the creaking wood. The air below was heavy, thick with tension and lingering fear. Jessica clutched Deborah’s arm so tightly her knuckles had turned pale, while Uncle Bernard stood rigid, his face drained of color, eyes darting nervously toward every corner of the room as if expecting someone, or something to lunge out at them.The moment Damien’s figure emerged, all three froze. Their gazes instinctively swept past him, scanning the room as though expecting another presence to follow. The absence of Victoria’s uncle, the man who moments ago was suffocating them with his killing intent was more terrifying than his presence.Jessica’s lips trembled as she blurted, “Where… where is he? Where is that man? Where is Victoria’s uncle?”Deborah’s voice followed almost immediately, shaky and sharp, her fear laced with disbelief. “Tell us he’s gone… please tell me he’s gone.”Damien’s expression remained
Chapter 444
At that moment, Damien’s voice was calm, almost unnervingly calm, as he spoke to Victoria’s uncle. “Looking at you,” he said, his tone steady but sharp enough to slice through the thick air in the room. “I can see it in your eyes, you’re telling the truth. I can feel it. And because of that… I’ll make your death seamless. No pain. Quick.”The words hung there, cold and final, like a blade resting against a throat.Victoria’s uncle felt his chest tighten as if invisible hands were squeezing the life out of him. His legs trembled involuntarily, and a drop of sweat ran down the side of his face. The promise of a painless death wasn’t comforting, it was horrifying. It was the calm certainty in Damien’s tone that struck fear deep into his bones.“W–wait!” Victoria’s uncle stammered, his voice breaking as he instinctively stepped back, his hands trembling. “Y–you promised! You said if I told you the truth, you wouldn’t hurt me!” His words came fast and uneven, like a man desperately graspin
