Great Deal

Barley White bowed in front of me and said sincerely, “Young man, thank you for rescuing me that day. Without you, I would not be standing here alive.”I immediately shook my head and stepped forward, helping him up. “Please, can we keep this matter a secret? I don’t need everyone to know about it.”Barley understood my meaning and nodded. As he steadied himself, he sighed and said, “My leg… it seems I’ll be having a bad week.”He straightened himself and then looked at Warren, whose jaw was still hanging open. “Warren, is this young man with you?”Warren quickly nodded. “Yes. His name is Danial Crawford. I personally recommended him to the company, and I believe he will greatly benefit Sterling Technology in the future.”Barley nodded in satisfaction. “Yes… I believe in this young man as well.”Warren was puzzled but chose not to think too deeply about it. In his mind, Barley White was a legendary businessman who could judge a person’s character at a glance. If Barley believed D

Someone's following me

I held the documents firmly in my hand as I made my way home. While walking, I heard some movement behind me, coming from the bushes. I chose to ignore it.As I continued walking, the same sound repeated again and again.I frowned internally.Is he bad at hiding… or is he deliberately making noise?I quickened my pace and reached home earlier than expected. As a precaution, I immediately called Don Albert and asked him to place some men around my house for safety reasons.I didn’t know whether the person following me had ill intentions or not. It was better to be safe than regret it later.Albert acted quickly. His men arrived and casually positioned themselves around my house, blending in naturally so as not to raise suspicion. That night, after completing my daily routine, I went to sleep.The next morning, I set out for the office.Halfway there, I felt it again.Someone was following me.The same bush sounds echoed behind me—this time clearly intentional, as if the person knew that

Trouble at the Academy(1)

I entered the academy and immediately noticed a large crowd gathered near the main hall.I frowned.Why are there so many people here?Looks like they’re here to watch a fight… or something worse.Let me find Pavan. He should be around.I scanned the area and soon spotted him standing near the corner of the hall, talking to a young woman. When Pavan noticed me, he waved enthusiastically.“Hey, Danial! Over here!”I walked over and greeted him.“Hey, Pavan. How’s your health? I hope Adren hasn’t been causing you trouble.”Pavan smiled faintly. “No. Adren’s been quiet this whole week. Even at the academy, he avoids me completely and doesn’t participate in combat training anymore. His leg and wrist injuries have healed quite a bit, and he’s far more restrained than before.”I felt a slight heaviness in my chest. In the end, they were still brothers—sharing the same blood. But Adren had chosen hatred, betrayal, and violence. Whatever happened after that… he brought it upon himself.Pavan

Trouble at the Academy (2)

I couldn’t bear to watch the student being tortured any longer.Without realising it, a surge of killing intent leaked out from my body.The temperature in the hall dropped by several degrees. A suffocating chill spread outward as my killing intent rolled through the crowd like a silent wave. Conversations died instantly. People instinctively took steps back, their eyes widening as they turned toward me.Pavan looked at me in shock. In his eyes, I wasn’t his friend anymore—I looked like a monster on the verge of breaking free.The sound of the whip grew louder. Each strike echoed like thunder against flesh, every crack digging deeper into my chest. My fists clenched so tightly that my nails cut into my palms.Just then—BOOM!The massive doors of the hall blasted open.The explosion of sound snapped everyone out of their fear. Even Bowan halted mid-motion and turned toward the entrance.A man dressed in pristine white robes walked in, his presence commanding absolute silence. A crown-s

Maria and the Black Robed man

Maria exited the academy and stopped by the roadside, her expression calm and unreadable. The noise of the academy slowly faded behind her as students continued to gather and whisper about what had transpired inside.Moments later, Master Ronald emerged from the academy gates, accompanied by his personal disciples. His steps were steady, his presence commanding, yet his gaze merely swept past Maria with cold indifference before he continued onward. Maria didn’t react. Whether he noticed her or not made no difference—she had patience.Not long after, the low hum of an engine broke the silence.A black Rolls-Royce glided to a halt in front of her.Maria entered the car without a word, and the vehicle sped away, disappearing into the busy streets of the capital.The Rolls-Royce eventually stopped before a grand mansion hidden deep within the capital city. The estate radiated authority and ancient power. Martial artists guarded every corner, their auras sharp and vigilant.If Danial had be

The Assassin

After the incident at the academy, I was walking home when it suddenly clicked.The assassin.I completely forgot about her—the one who followed me that day.My expression darkened immediately. Without wasting a second, I took out my phone and called Don Albert, telling him to pick me up right now.Less than ten minutes later, a Ferrari 488 GTB roared to a stop beside me.Heads turned. Conversations stopped. Almost everyone on the street stared.I sighed deeply, got into the car quickly, and Albert sped away as if he owned the road—which, honestly, he kind of did.While we were driving, I glanced at him and said, “Albert, can you be a little low-key next time and not bring this car?”Albert frowned slightly. “But Master, I think this car suits you.”I rubbed my temples. “Tell me something, Albert. How long have you owned this car?”He thought for a moment. “About three years. I bought it at an international convention.”I nodded. “And you use it daily, don’t you?”Albert nodded ag

Looks like those daily tasks really paid off. There are even some skills I never properly checked.My gaze stopped at one particular line.Energy Manipulation Arts.“Might as well learn it while waiting,” I muttered softly. “Learn Energy Manipulation Arts.”The moment I spoke, a massive amount of information flooded into my mind. My head throbbed sharply, the pain intense—but it vanished almost instantly.The Energy Manipulation Arts were incredible. The technique allowed control over similar energy types and grant

Really cute

Suddenly, a question came to my mind and I asked Albert, “I know you’re the king of the Underworld, but is there someone you wouldn’t fight against? Or someone you’d think twice before making a move on?”Albert froze for a moment. His expression turned heavy, and it looked like he didn’t want to answer.Seeing his reaction, I quickly added, “If you don’t want to answer, I won’t force you.”Albert shook his head slowly. “It’s not like that… it’s just complicated.”“What do you mean?” I asked.Albert took a deep breath and began explaining.“First things first,” he said seriously. “We never provoke a Master-level cultivator or anyone above that. Those people are terrifying. If a Master comes out of seclusion, entire countries would fight just to gain their favor.”I listened carefully as he continued.“Above Master-level cultivators are Martial Arts Masters. They’re among the strongest beings in the world. Their speed defies physics, and they can manipulate the laws of nature itself.

One Skill

While I was walking Dorothy home, about twenty people suddenly appeared roughly ten meters in front of us. They were holding knives and chains, their expressions hostile and cold.I stopped in my tracks, my face turning gloomy. “What do you want?” I asked calmly.The leader of the group stepped forward, a twisted smile on his face. “Why do you care?” he said menacingly. “You’re going to die soon anyway.”Dorothy, standing behind me, let out a frightened yell.I frowned. Twenty people coming to kill just two of us—it didn’t feel natural at all. I looked straight at the leader and asked, “Tell me. Who sent you?”The leader looked surprised for a moment, then laughed. “Wow, you’re quick to catch on, aren’t you?” he sneered. “Let me tell you something, boy—you’ll never know.”The entire group began moving toward us.I took my stance. This was the most serious situation I had ever faced. I not only had to fight them off, but also protect Dorothy. I couldn’t afford to make a single mista

LawInforcers

I dropped Dorothy off safely and began heading toward my own home.As I walked, my senses sharpened. I could clearly feel several martial artists following me from the shadows. Among them, the highest cultivation was at Beginner Master level. I deliberately started moving in circles through the streets, testing them.They didn’t retreat.They kept following.I frowned inwardly.If I go home like this, they’ll discover where I live.I abruptly stopped.Turning toward the dark corners of the street, I spoke coldly, “Show yourselves. I know all of you are following me. Let’s settle this here and now.”For a brief moment, silence reigned.Then five figures emerged from the shadows, spreading out and forming a loose circle around me.Instantly, my energy began to circulate violently. I prepared for the worst.Just as my aura surged, one of them calmly raised his hand. “Slow down, kid,” he said evenly. “We’re not here to harm you.”I suppressed my energy slightly, but I didn’t relax.
