The third floor of the bar was a whole different world, hidden behind reinforced steel was a secret chamber.
Led by the man in the black suit, Andrew and Rachel stepped inside.
Rachel's face had gone pale, but Andrew remained completely calm and collected.
"Sir, this guy insisted on seeing you!" the man growled as soon as they entered.
At the far end of the chamber sat a massive black throne chair. Seated on it was a burly, broad-shouldered man
with a thick beard and dark, blotchy skin. His sharp, beast-like eyes gleamed with danger at every twitch.
This was Ronald, known throughout Blumedale as the Onyx Dragon King, ranked on par with Marcelo. The black
blotches that covered his face gave him his name, a title he only earned after making a nfor himself.
Before that, people called him Onyx Serpent, a nnot nearly as dignified.
"Wow. What an impressive spirit from the younger generation. Mr. Lloyd, you weren't born in Blumedale, and I've
never heard of you in Holtrien's southern martial scene either. But you showed up here just a few months ago
and built an empire from scratch? That's something to admire," Ronald said with a cold glint in his eyes and a
fake smile.
Andrew responded casually, "I appreciate the compliment, sir. But compared to your reputation, my small
accomplishments don't amount to much."
Ronald let out a hearty laugh. "Nonsense! You're a rising legend now! Otherwise, how else would you dare barge
into my turf, loud and proud? Hadthinking maybe you already took over all of Blumedale. Gotshaking in

Though the words were polite, the tone turned darker with each sentence.
Without needing a command, 23 men seated nearby immediately stood, drawing their weapons and surrounding
Andrew.
In an instant, dozens of gun barrels pointed right at him.
Rachel trembled from head to toe, nearly on the verge of tears. "Dragon King, please don't! Let's talk this
through!"
Ronald's eyes narrowed, his tone murderous. "Talk? Talk, my ass! This little punk dares to stir trouble on my turf?
Fine! Since he's so fearless, I'll show him what a real tiger's bite feels like!"
Yet, Andrew remained unfazed. He said flatly, "Dragon King, this isn't exactly how you treat a guest."
Ronald froze, then burst out laughing and turned to his men. "Did you all hear what this kid just said? He wants
His men laughed mockingly, their faces full of disdain.
"Who the hell does this guy think he is?"
"Does he think he's Mr. Keller Senior? Or sbig nlike Governor McCormick?"
"Sir, quit wasting breath and just end him already!"

He turned back to Andrew, ready to crush him with pure intimidation. However,
what he saw made his smile falter.
Andrew's face had not changed at all.
There was no fear or anxiety. In fact, he looked bored.
Like this was not a life-or-death standoff, but a tedious waste of time.
Ronald's expression darkened. "Andrew, do you even realize you're one breath away from death?"
Andrew shrugged. "One breath away?
