The Brain, recognizing Serenity's subordinate, acknowledged her presence with a curt nod. The subordinate, realizing her mistake, quickly saluted the high-ranking officer.

“I apologize, sir,” she stammered, her voice filled with a mix of respect and embarrassment.

“I wasn't aware that Damien was here to deliver the herbs you requested.”

The Brain's gaze lingered on the subordinate for a moment, his expression unreadable.

“It is not your place to question Damien's actions,” he stated, his tone firm but not unkind.

“Please leave us and refrain from meddling in his affairs. He is here on official business.”

Immediately Serenity subordinate, chastised by the Brain's words, lowered her gaze and nodded.

“Yes, sir. I understand.” With a final salute, she turned and walked away, her footsteps echoing through the hallway.

As she retreated, the subordinate's mind raced with disappointment and self-doubt.

“I can't believe I was so wrong about Damien,” she thought, her brow furrowed in frustr

The subordinate's eyes widened, her mouth falling open in a gasp of pure, unadulterated shock. “The Supreme King?” she breathed, her voice trembling with a mix of awe and disbelief. “He's... he's back?”Serenity nodded, her smile growing wider still. “Yes, he has returned to take his rightful place at the head of our forces once more.

    Serenity's mind raced even more, as more whirlwind of thoughts and emotions swirling through her like a tempest. She couldn't believe what she had just heard, couldn't fathom the idea that Damien, of all people, could be connected to the military in such a way.As she stood there, her eyes wide and her breath coming in short, sharp gasps, a realization began to dawn on her. For Damien to be granted access to the headquarters, to be entrusted with the task of delivering herbs to the very heart of their military operations... it spoke volumes about his position, his influence within their ranks.Without being told he knows even the general wouldn't be able to grant him such access.“No ordinary man could set foot in this place,” she murmured to herself, her voice barely audible over the pounding of her own heart. “To be allowed entry, to move freely through these halls... it's unheard of for anyone outside the highest echelons of command.”Then She turned to her subordinate, her expres

    As soon as Demian stepped into his home, a sense of relief washed over him. His sharp eyes landed on the neatly wrapped package sitting on the table outside his house. The herbs had arrived.He walked over, unwrapping the bundle with careful hands. The moment he saw the familiar textures and colors of the plants inside, a small, satisfied smirk tugged at his lips. Finally. The herbs he had been searching for were now in his possession.That meant he was only missing two more.He let out a deep breath, leaning against the table. The last two weren’t as urgent.

    At that moment Serenity allowed herself a small, fleeting smile. Maybe it was an accomplishment. Sitting in the same room as the Supreme King was no small thing, but still—it wasn’t enough for her.“It’s nothing,” she said, brushing off the thought. “My goal is to actually meet him. At least shake his hand. If I can do that… then I’ll have something to be proud of.”Hearing Serenity words Elvis chuckled, shaking his head. “That’s true. I know you, Serenity. And if that’s your goal, you’re definitely going to get there.”Then Serenity gave him a small nod of appreciation. She would get there. She had to.Everything between them still felt light, natural, just as it always had. But then, Elvis’s expression shifted slightly, with a more serious look crossing his face.“I’ve been working on something,” he said, his tone thoughtful. “Something for your grandfather.”At that moment Serenity’s brows furrowed. “What do you mean?”Elvis leaned forward slightly. “We can’t wait forever, Sereni

    At that moment Deborah took a step forward, confusion written all over her face. “What are you insinuating, Bernard? What are you even trying to say?” she asked, her voice tight with frustration.Uncle Bernard let out a soft sigh, like he was tired of trying to make them understand.“I'm saying,” he said, locking eyes with her calmly, “that everything Damien said inside this room the other day... he actually did it.”Deborah blinked rapidly, not sure she heard him right. Jessica, sitting silently on the edge of the couch, clenched her hands together tightly.Then Uncle Bernard leaned back in his chair, his voice firm. “When we got there, instead of us being punished like you all feared, it was the committee members themselves who got punished.”Upon hearing what Bernard just said, Deborah gasped. Victoria looked even more stunned.“They were punished for trying to frame us, for abusing their authority,” Uncle Bernard continued, his tone carrying a mixture of disbelief and admiration

    At that moment Serenity gathered more courage, standing there with her back straight as if bracing herself for whatever Damien would say next.But when Damien finally spoke, his voice was calm—too calm.“So, that's what you call an apology?” Damien asked, tilting his head slightly, his gaze sharp and piercing.“If you truly wanted to apologize,” he continued, “I would expect you to bow your head properly, and apologize proudly. Not... whatever this half-hearted thing you’re doing is.”He stood there, not raising his voice, but his words struck harder than if he had yelled.“You’re still trying to prove something,” Damien said, a slight smirk playing at the corner of his lips.“As if being the War Goddess makes you untouchable. As if it freaks me.”Upon hearing what Damien just said, Serenity’s lips parted, but no words came out.Damien’s voice grew colder.“It doesn’t freak me. None of it does,” he said bluntly.“It seems you really don't have anything else to say.”He shifted slightl

    At that moment the old man's face paled.For the first time in a long while, real fear flashed in his eyes. He staggered a little, his mouth opening and closing without any sound coming out.He couldn’t even argue it with his son, he didn't understand anymore. Everything he thought he knew about Damien shattered like fragile glass.From the look of things... Damien wasn't just some miraculous doctor’s apprentice anymore.This—this was something else entirely.Because what he just heard...A doctor couldn't do this, no mere healer could.This was clear—crystal clear—cultivation sealing and unlocking at a level that was terrifyingly beyond ordinary reach to a doctor.At that moment Sophia’s grandfather wiped the cold sweat forming on his forehead.He had been friends with some of the highest-ranking generals in the military. He had heard whispers, rumors about things like this—about techniques that could cripple a man's life force without leaving a single visible wound. But he never tho

    At that moment Serenity stood there, frozen, her mind blank and her fingers curling slightly into her palms. She couldn't move. She couldn't even breathe properly.Everything that just happened felt surreal, as if the world had been flipped upside down in a single heartbeat.The heavy silence pressed down on her, and no matter how much she tried to pull herself together, she couldn’t shake the strange, overwhelming feeling swirling in her chest. She could still see Damien's calm back as he walked away earlier, like nothing that had happened even scratched him.How? she thought blankly. How can he be so composed? How did he even do what he did?She had heard about that skill before—the technique of controlling speed within a person's body, a forbidden art in the military, only accessible to those who reached an unimaginable level of cultivation. It wasn't a rumor. It was fact.And only a handful, a very rare handful of people, could even dream of achieving it.For Damien to be among th

    The moment Winston's father spoke on the call, he didn't even let the doctor speak first.“Is there any progress?” he demanded, his voice sharp with impatience. “Have you finally gotten a breakthrough?”There was a brief pause on the line. A pause that made the air around him feel heavy, suffocating.Then the doctor's voice came through, low and apologetic.“I'm sorry to inform you, sir... your son... he's dead.”For a second, Winston's father stood frozen, not even breathing.Then, slowly, his phone slipped from his trembling hand, crashing onto the tiled hospital floor with a loud, hollow sound that echoed through the room.Everyone around turned to look.Winston's eyes, bloodshot with rage, widened as realization hit him fully. His hands clenched so tightly they turned white.“That bastard...” he growled under his breath, his voice shaking with fury. “That bastard actually killed my son!”He staggered back a step, his body almost unable to bear the weight of the truth crashing down

    At that moment, Damien stood up slowly from his chair.The faint sound of the legs scraping against the hospital floor echoed sharply in the thick silence. His movements were calm, composed—but anyone watching closely could feel the storm brewing underneath his stillness.He tucked his hands into his pockets and glanced at the people standing before him, one after the other, his gaze cold and distant, almost as if he was looking through them rather than at them.“I've kept quiet long enough,” Damien said, his voice steady, but edged with a sharpness that couldn't be missed. “And frankly, it seems I'm just wasting my time with irrelevant noise.”The temperature in the room seemed to drop by a few degrees. No one dared to interrupt.Then Damien took a slow step forward, speaking with a chilling clarity, every word landing with precision.“I'm not the kind of person who seeks the downfall of others. I'm not the kind of person who finds joy when others are crying or broken,” he said, his

    At that moment, Sophia, her grandfather, and her father were frozen in place.None of them could speak. None of them could even breathe properly.It was as if the world had tilted slightly off balance—watching, hearing, sensing the storm that was quietly brewing inside this single hospital room. Everything they thought they knew had been shaken in seconds, leaving them only with the sharp sting of reality. They were just there, stiff and confused, staring as the scene unfolded before them.Winston’s father stepped forward, anger rolling off him in waves.“This is the man,” he growled, pointing a thick finger directly at Damien. “Serenity, don’t waste time. Arrest him immediately! He’s the one. I’m very, very sure!”The room held its breath, all eyes shifted to Serenity.For a moment, she said nothing. Her sharp, calculating gaze locked onto Damien, studying him with chilling calmness. Her posture was straight, her expression unreadable, but the atmosphere around her grew colder by the

    Her question was directed at Winston's father, who stood with grief etched into every line of his face. His eyes never left Damien as he gave a slow, deliberate nod.“Yes,” he said, his voice thick with conviction. “That is the same person. I would recognize him anywhere.” His fists clenched at his sides, knuckles white with tension. “I am very, very sure.”The weight of his certainty hung in the air, choking any protest Sophia might have formed. She glanced at Damien, searching his face for some reaction—denial, shock, anything that might suggest innocence—but his expression remained carefully controlled, only the slight tightening around his eyes betraying any emotion at all.Whisting's father stepped forward, his face contorted with desperation and rage. His finger remained pointed at Damien, trembling with the force of his accusation.“He has been the one having issues with Whisting ever since the beginning,” he spat, voice breaking. “And I am very, very sure that he is also the
