LOGINLindsay, as if she were a soulless robot, mechanically picked up a bite of food, chewed, and swallowed, but it was as if she didn't taste a thing. She sat frozen for a long moment before suddenly jumping up, exclaiming, "I must be dreaming! Lucy, pinch yourself—tell me if it hurts! Tell me if this is real!"Lucy rolled her eyes so hard they nearly left her skull. Are you really my friend?Smack!She slapped Lindsay across the back of the hand. The sharp sting made Lindsay yelp, but it fully snapped her out of her daze. She stared at Ray, wide-eyed, and blurted, "Sir… do you take students?"Ray shot her a sharp look. 'Slow down there, girl. Your mind's jumping way ahead.'Even if he did take her as a student, all she'd be good for would be warming his bed. Learning his abilities? Forget it.He ignored her and turned back to Lucy. "Lucy, eat while it's hot.""Mm!" Lucy obediently nodded. As a lawyer, her greatest strength was analyzing the situation calmly. She understood clearl
Ray returned Lucy's embrace with a gentle squeeze.At that moment, Lindsay stepped forward, her eyes wide with cautious curiosity.Although Ray already knew what she looked like, seeing her in person with spatial perception and with his own eyes hit differently.As the saying goes, "Birds of a feather flock together, people of like mind stick together." It seemed true.Lucy's friend was also a stunning beauty—slightly less striking than Lucy herself, but still unquestionably top-tier. She had bright, clear eyes and perfect teeth, her long hair falling gracefully over her shoulders. Her eyes sparkled with mischief, giving her an aura of sly intelligence.Tall, long-legged, and with a slender waist, she had a model's physique. If Ray were to nitpick, her only flaw was her chest—B-cup at best—the smallest he had encountered among the women he knew."Ray, you're amazing!" Lucy finally caught her breath. Realizing they'd been far too intimate, she shyly pushed him away, cheeks flushed
Alexander wasn't the strongest in their faction, but he was certainly among the top ten.And he was Igor's brother-in-law.Ray smiled faintly. "Alexander and I got to know each other through a fight."Igor understood the old Gohaven saying and couldn't help smiling. Getting to know each other through combat meant becoming friends afterward."However," Ray added leisurely, "I didn't know my own strength. I accidentally beat him to death."What?The smile froze on Igor's face."Haha… you must be joking," he said awkwardly."No, I'm not," Ray replied calmly."You are! You are!" Igor shouted, his voice on the verge of breaking.If Alexander had really died at Ray's hands, would this Gohaven guy show them any mercy?There was only one possible outcome—death.His thoughts spiraled into stubborn denial."I truly am not joking," Ray repeated."You are! You are!" Igor shrieked hysterically.Ray sighed. With a flick of spatial severance, Igor's head tilted to one side. He died sil
Igor and the remaining four didn't even have the courage to flee. With their heads lowered in defeat, they followed Ray into the villa.Still, Igor clung to a faint hope.Ray knew Alexander.He understood exactly how powerful Alexander was. Though he looked down on the people of Gohaven with utter disdain, Alexander was the exception—so formidable that even he could only tremble in his presence. As long as he revealed his identity, Ray would surely spare him out of respect for Alexander.After all, once someone had witnessed Alexander's strength, who would dare offend him?Ray walked inside and casually took a seat on the sofa."What's your relationship with Alexander?" he asked.He had initially assumed Igor was Alexander's father-in-law, but the man's age clearly didn't match.Igor answered immediately, "Alexander is my brother-in-law. My younger sister is Vera Whitmore."Heh. Alexander had never mentioned having an older brother-in-law."Where did you come from?" Ray asked
Just look at what he had done moments ago. Even a god would be no more terrifying.Ray spoke directly. "You're all from Jayzepan?"The four men turned toward him in unison. So this was all his doing?They didn't exchange glances or say a word. They simply attacked. Their coordination was flawless. In an instant, four different abilities struck at once.Ice arrows. Fireballs. Stone pellets flicked from a finger, yet traveling at astonishing speed, their destructive force terrifying. And finally, a beam of dazzling light—so brilliant it could blind a person—piercing straight toward Ray's eyes.It was excellent teamwork. Though the light-based attack had the weakest killing power, it could blind him—at least temporarily. The other three attacks would then be enough to grievously injure or even kill him.Ray opened a spatial portal and absorbed every attack.'Hmm. From now on, I'll be an arsenal of infinite offense. Who could ever guess my true ability?' he thought.After the str
Ray burst out laughing. "Sorry, sorry. It's my first time using this ability for surgery—I'm not very skilled yet. Please bear with me."It was clearly meant as a joke, but none of the fifteen men found it amusing.The silence was painfully awkward.Ray walked over and reattached the severed arms. Within his spatial domain, he was like a god. The moment he willed it, the wounds healed—without a single drop of blood spilling."See? All better now," Ray said with a grin.He withdrew the domain, yet still no blood flowed.Everyone stared at him in stunned disbelief, feeling as though he was no different from a divine being.Everyone except one.The man whose arms had just been reattached wore a miserable expression. In a trembling voice, he said, "S-Sir… you attached my arms backward."Huh? Oh.Ray took a closer look. Sure enough, the man was right. No wonder something had felt off.Well, it was his first time performing this kind of procedure. Making a mistake was perfectly no
Ray caught up, reached out, and pressed his palm forward. A massive boulder vanished into thin air. He pressed again, and amid the scattered blood and flesh, a warm current surged into his body.He let out a breath of relief.Even after they had been crushed into such a state, he could still abs
The size of the spatial portal did not change at all, but its casting range increased to ten meters.Ray could only call it strange.The growth of this ability was the most baffling of all—impossible to predict. Just when he thought he had grasped its pattern, it would arbitrarily change again, le
What was Ray planning to do?He wasn't just going to observe the three "patients"—he was planning to actively intervene. Perhaps in the entire world, only he could do this.Spatial Perception combined with Spatial Severing gave him that capability.And what was he intervening with?The energy se
Two crisp snapping sounds rang out. Even though Rex and Moose's crisis alert had been triggered, they naturally assumed the threat came from Ray's attack. How could they have imagined that it would be their own captain who struck?Once a physical-type ability user attacked at close range, who cou
