At that moment Damien leaned back slightly, his gaze steady as Mr. Leo’s polished words lingered in the air. Despite the businessman’s smooth denial, Damien’s instincts flared. He knows something, Damien thought, his mind piecing together the subtle tension in Mr.Leo’s tone and posture.

“Mr.Leo,” Damien began, his voice calm but deliberate, “if I’m wrong about your access to the herb, then I apologize. But if there’s another reason—perhaps something personal—maybe we can work together instead.”

Upon hearing what Damien just said.

Mr.Leo’s brows furrowed slightly, his usually composed demeanor slipping for a fraction of a second. “What are you implying?” he asked, his voice still measured but carrying a hint of wariness.

However Damien kept his tone neutral.

“I’m suggesting that if you need the herb for a reason—like a medical condition—I may be able to help. My focus isn’t just on acquiring the herb but ensuring it’s used to its fullest potential.”

At that moment Mr.Leo’s lips presse

    At that moment, every single head in the room turned sharply toward the source of the sound.The heavy doors had swung wide open, and there in the doorway stood a figure whose very presence seemed to command the air itself to still. He was impeccably dressed in a military uniform so sharp and perfectly fitted that it looked as though it had been tailored thread by thread for him alone. The fabric glistened faintly under the light, the medals and insignias catching every eye.Without being told, they could tell this wasn’t just any military uniform. No, those seated in the hall could tell instantly from the gold embroidery, the rare crest on the shoulder, and the deep royal hue of the coat that this was something far above standard rank. This was a uniform worn by only one man in the entire kingdom.A murmur rippled through the hall as the truth struck them almost in unison.The Supreme King.Yet, what made their breath catch was not just the revelation of his identity, but the sight o

    At that moment, upon hearing what Derrick had just said, the atmosphere in the hall shifted into something far heavier than before. A silent wave of fear rippled through the crowd. No one dared to even breathe too loudly. Every pair of eyes turned toward the Brain, waiting, almost pleading for him to back down.Most of them thought the same thing, he should just apologize now. he shouldn't push forward. he shouldn't even try and fight back. This was Derrick they’re talking about. The man’s authority was unquestionable, and his reputation for ruthless action was well known. If the Brain had any sense of self-preservation, now would be the moment to bow his head, mutter an apology, and let the storm pass.But to their utter disbelief, the Brain didn’t move. He didn’t speak. He didn’t even blink.Instead, he simply stood there, his gaze locked directly on Derrick. It wasn’t a glare filled with rage, nor was it the wide-eyed look of a man gripped by fear, it was calm, steady, and unflinc

    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

    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
