Daniel’s POV

I had just finished berating an obnoxious staff when I received the damning report of Dorian's announcement.

The announcement was nothing short of audacious—it was hard to remove it from my head. It wasn’t just about Anna; it was about him drawing a line in the sand, daring anyone to cross it.

Well, I was prepared to take that dare.

I leaned back into my plush chair, scrolling through my contacts as I hashed up my plan. The board members, the influential figures Dorian had cultivated so carefully, would hear from me soon enough.

I resolved not to go with overt accusations—that would be too obvious—I would instead plant seeds of doubt among them. A well-timed comment here, a subtle insinuation there.

Anna’s sudden rise in the company? Too good to be true. Her relationship with Dorian? Convenient, wasn’t it? People were always eager to believe the worst when ambition was involved, and I was going to ensure that the whole thing blew out of proportion.

    ‘Interesting…’ As Rey proceeded to leave the underground space, he used his Absolute Appraisal two more times.Once on Alicia, and the other time on Billy.As a result, he was able to check out their Status Windows and gauge their abilities.‘They’re strong. Their Classes really help them out too…’However, despite their strength, their low Levels meant they were nowhere near his own power level. Rey knew he was much stronger.‘Alicia, as expected, is Lawful Good. But, I can’t figure out Billy’s alignment. How can he be Good?’Billy’s alignment displayed ‘Chaotic Good’, but Rey found the ‘Chaotic’ part irrelevant since he didn’t think the jerk was any good.‘Haaa… this idiot started this whole mess…’However, he was glad to know that it was all going to be over pretty soon.‘It’s almost evening already. A lot of time has passed since I started the day, but I’m happy it’s done.’His mind drifted to Adonis and his mission, wondering if it was a success.‘From what I overheard, they sh

    Rey took in a deep breath.He had never been in an actual sale before, but that didn’t stop him from trying his best.Besides, there were a bunch of things he hadn’t done before, but he still managed to scale through them on the first try.‘Fighting monsters is a good example…’Currently, he was walking a fine line.‘I have to be careful.’“The Grade is considerably high, and since this is a wholesale, you should know that I have over a thousand pieces,” Rey finally spoke, his voice clear and his tone confident.“I am well aware, but—”“I am also well aware of your procedures. However, I have mine. And that entails speaking to a higher-up when it comes to business of this scale.”Rey could already see anxiety creep in on the face of the man in glasses.He just had to keep pushing.“We’re talking goods worth hundreds, if not thousands of Platinum Coins. Do you really think you are sufficient to handle such a trade? Will you take full responsibility?”“S-sir, I’m just doing my job…” the

    The first wave of attack came like lightning.Azul, the warrior mercenary that Evals Redart often employed, was incredibly strong.However, his true ability lay in his speed.And so…~WHOOSH!~In an instant, he closed the distance between himself and his target, before the latter could even notice.He pulled out a sword from its scabbard, and the blade glowed blue, revealing the Mana that was locked within.Azul’s sword was enchanted—and that pretty much applied to the rest of his armor.He had enhanced strength, durability, focus, resistance, and most importantly, speed!~ZZTZZ!~His blade crackled with electricity, the energy coursing through his entire armor, creating sparks that danced around him.Azul held back from using his [Lightning Field] Skill early on, since stunning the enemy wasn’t necessary for this particular task. His role was to distract and lure the enemy in while his partner, Fey, handled the rest.However, Azul found such a complicated maneuver to be a chore, espe

    Gary’s eyes were seeing red.A blurry, nauseating sight of danger and death clouded his vision.Death was no stranger to him; he had seen his fair share of it, along with pain and gore.But, nothing he had ever experienced compared to this moment.Seeing his comrades—the ones he joked and played games with earlier—reduced to mere lifeless chunks of meat, caused his stomach to churn and his throat to burn.Were it not for the searing pain in his arm, and the certainty of death that weighed heavily on him, Gary was certain that he would have vomited once again.“G-guahhh… ahhh… arghhh…” Tears mixed with drool slipped down his face, and mucus flowed from his nose and he shivered.He looked like a pathetic sniveling rat that could only tremble in the face of danger.“Ahh… I suppose I was being a bit impatient. For a moment there, I thought you were reaching for a weapon.”The way the masked figure spoke so casually, despite Gary just losing an arm, made a flickering flame of rage burn wit

    Dorian's POV That night, as soon as we were alone in the hotel room, words became unnecessary as we rushed at each other. The tension and the raw emotions that had been simmering beneath my skin all burst free the moment I kissed her. Anna melted into me, her fingers threading through my hair as if afraid I would disappear.I wasn’t sure if this was real or some cruel illusion, but I didn’t care. She was warm, solid, alive—and that was all that mattered.We spent the night tangled together, whispering each other’s names and relearning the feel of one another’s bodies. Every touch was urgent, every kiss desperate, as if making up for lost time. And when exhaustion finally claimed us, I held her close, unwilling to let go even in sleep.The next morning, sunlight streamed through the sheer curtains, casting golden patterns on the bed. Anna stirred beside me, her bare skin warm against mine. I watched her face for a moment, memorizing the peaceful rise and fall of her breathing, the way

    ‘He… He’s hereee!!!’Gary's body trembled with excitement, his eyes wide as saucers.He was overjoyed beyond compare.He didn’t think he had ever been this happy from the day he was born until now.‘H-he must have woken up due to all the noise…’ With that in mind, Gary convinced himself that the reason he had been screaming and shouting like a pathetic little rat was so he could get the Leader’s attention.Yes… this was all a part of the plan!His thoughts raced with relief at the sight of Leader Gus.‘N-now that Leader Gus is here, I’m saved!’ he thought, a grin spreading across his face.“Looks like you’re the only one who survived. Of all my capable men, it had to be you…”Gary felt his body rise from the pool of blood. He was being lifted by the Leader, who firmly grabbed his head with one hand,Leader Gus was an extremely robust man—many could call him very fat.However, he wasn’t particularly obese. Rather, he proudly claimed that the reason for his huge size and round potbelly
