"Dane, this doesn't feel right." Outside the manor, Ross and Dane were sprinting in pursuit of someone. "What's not right about it? That bone was super rare. Do you think I'd give it up if I didn't have to? Now that the deal's done, I need my property back. Besides, I left my mark on him. He won't get far!" Ross could only manage a bitter smile, not daring to say more. Though he had blood on his hands, this was his first time pulling something like this. After all, Felix had just saved their lives, and that tip about another Dragonspine was completely made up.Minutes later, they cornered Felix in the forest. "You seem awfully calm." Dane furrowed his brows. Felix's reaction was unexpected. The look in his eyes seemed to say he knew they would come. "Calm? I guess you could say that." Felix shrugged with a smile. While treating Dane, he had already set things up to make sure he could track this Super S-rank criminal from the Thirteen Aces. But Dane had decided to strike fi

Melissa's call came at just the right moment. Felix answered it. "Felix, there's someone named Tom here. He barged into the clinic and won't get up from his knees. He's desperate to see you. Are you free?" Tom? Felix smirked. That bastard Tom must have exhausted all other options to come crawling back like this. …At the clinic, Tom looked like a shell of his former self. "Please, I'm begging you! Remove it. I'm begging you!" Tom was on the verge of losing his mind. He had never imagined urination could ever become a torture for him. He wanted to pull out that silver needle but feared death too much. The agony was unbearable. Felix ignored him at first. Instead, he looked at Nala, who understood immediately and took Melissa's hand with a smile. She said, "Melissa, let's go shopping." "Sure." As the clinic's shutters came down, Felix took a seat. "Do you know why I agreed to see you?" Tom shook his head frantically, fighting another urge to urinate. "Please, liv

On a rainy night, a coaster bus cruised down the provincial highway. From the outside, all passengers appeared to be sleeping, creating a stark contrast with the pounding rain. Felix was among them, but he was the only one with open eyes. Earlier at the clinic, he had realized that to catch a lion, one had to enter its den. After questioning Tom, he learned that Tom had scheduled a transport for tonight, so he infiltrated the group. Tom was driving, still with a silver needle embedded in him—though a different one. This served two purposes: avoiding suspicion and making sure Tom understood that his relief was still in Felix's hands. The new needle would only cause agony once in a day when urinating. While this lifted most of his nightmare, his fate remained in Felix's control. So, he would not dare do anything rash. Before boarding, everyone had been given a bottle of liquid that quickly induced sleep. These people had not shown any fear. After all, they had each received 10,00

A smirk appeared on Yadier's face."Hah! At least you know your place! As for why we're going to such lengths—first, Felix is Dragonia's master healer. Kill him, and they lose a master who can pass down the knowledge of traditional medicine. "Second, we want to prove that Dragonia's martial arts are child's play compared to our shadowstalking techniques. Now hold that coffee steady. The show's starting." By the bus, Felix had stepped out, finding the scene oddly familiar. Ten fighters in purple combat suits surrounded him, while the driver stood at a distance with a smug grin as if victory was assured. "You must be Yadier's right-hand man. You can tell me where to find him." The driver's smile widened. "How dare you talk big even at death's door? Your confidence must come from being a martial artist, isn't it? How naive. These are ten mid-ranked shadowstalkers from our homeland. You're finished!" Felix's expression turned peculiar as he asked, "Ten mid-ranked shadowstalkers?

Yadier revealed that there was another Steele family overseer for Gray City and its neighbors, named Ollie Steele. But he had returned to Astoria the day before on urgent business. This did not diminish Felix's killing intent. Yadier had revealed plenty, which was befitting his status as a direct family member. He knew almost every operation in Dragonia. Felix compiled information about other labs and personnel, then passed it to Alistair to give to Xena as an anonymous tip. This would be enough to uproot all Steele family operations in Dragonia. But prosecuting them internationally would prove challenging. Evidence aside, cross-border politics made things complicated, so Felix decided to handle this personally. He just hoped Xena would not assign him any missions in the coming days.…"I'm coming with you!" Back at the villa, Nala's eyes showed fierce determination to accompany Felix to Astoria. "Don't complicate things. I'm going there to kill people—quite a few of them.

"Felix?" a familiar voice called out as Felix was leaving the airport. He turned, surprised. "Jack? What are the odds?" It was indeed Jack, who rushed over in a few strides. He laughed and said, "I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. If we hadn't known each other for years, I might've thought you had a twin brother." Meeting Felix anywhere in Dragonia would have been one thing, but they were in Astoria. It was incredible. "What brings you here?" Felix asked."Business! Ms. Kinsley's company is doing well. She established preliminary cooperation agreements here earlier, so I'm just here to finalize things." Felix looked around and teased, "Jack, you're supposed to be a big-shot executive now. Don't you look kind of modest here, traveling alone?" Jack threw an arm around Felix's shoulders with a laugh. "I'm keeping it low-key, you know? Besides, though I hate Astoria, experiencing their unique cultural scene is easier when you're flying solo." The mention reminded F

After about 30 minutes, Jack returned to the private room. "That was quick," noted Felix. Jack grinned. "Of course! Like I said, it's just a formality. Ms. Kinsley handled everything earlier. Actually, with Nessa busy training, I thought I'd explore some local entertainment. "Do you want to join tonight? The company contacts can arrange everything. It's totally safe—no scams." Scams? Felix found it amusing. What scammer would dare try anything with a martial arts master like himself? "This liquor's basically water. Let's make do with it. By the way, I never asked—what brings you to Astoria?" Felix glanced at him with a smirk. He joked, "I got invited by a beautiful Astorian lady." Jack scoffed. "Yeah, right. Cheers!" Just as they raised their glasses, the door slid open. Four burly men sat down rudely on both sides. Judging from their tattoos, they were likely local gang members. Jack frowned and asked, "Can I help you?" They did not respond, either unable or unwill

"Jack!" Felix's voice finally snapped Jack out of his trance. "Let me introduce you. This is my good friend Jack Graham, and this is Luna Starfire." Felix was exasperated. He had called Jack's name three times while the guy just stared at Luna until she grew uncomfortable. "Pleasure to meet you, Ms. Starfire." After barely shaking hands, Jack's expression suddenly changed. He jumped up. "Excuse me. I need to use the restroom." Honestly, Felix was stunned. He could tell exactly what had happened to Jack, but wasn't this a bit extreme? Though considering Jack's obsession with Astorian media when he was younger, perhaps it made sense. The awkward moment was saved by Luna's amused smile. "Your friend's quite entertaining, Dr. Zeller." Entertaining? Felix seized the chance to change subjects. "Tell me about your friend. The case doesn't seem urgent, right?" Luna nodded. "To be direct, her situation is similar to Jenna's." Ah, fertility issues. Indeed, it was not life-threa
