    N?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    He had been a legend in Eurasia, clinching the top prize for the annual martial artspetition for five


    years in a row back in his youth.


    Later, he managed to defeat a whole city of people alone, earning him the title of ‘Master ymoore’.


    Legend had it that even the military tried to recruit him as their martial arts instructor.


    With such a respectable person stationed in Rivermouth, there was no need for its citizens to fear for


    their lives anymore.


    ...


    Meanwhile, at Linton Group...


    Lacey, Nancy, Dawn and Susan sat down at the cafeteria with their food.


    The staff at Linton Group had nicknamed them as the ‘four golden flowers’ of thepany.


    Their dazzling beauty was blinding whenever they sat together.


    The male employees could not help but nce at them every so often.


    However, for the ‘four golden flowers’ themselves, the food in their trays tasted like ash and cardboard.


    Dawn scooped the meat in her stew into Lacey’s bowl. “Lacey, you can have this. I’m on a diet. I’m so


    jealous of you! You don’t seem to gain weight no matter how much you eat!” she said, puffing her


    cheeks in exasperation.


    Lacey grinned. “Well, I can’t help that! It’s a blessing from the gods.”


    Lacey’s beautiful smile captivated the male employees around thempletely.


    Nancy spoke up all of a sudden. “Speaking of going on diets, I know of this diet master...”


    The four women began to chatter cheerfully.


    However, after a while, they found themselves wandering to the topic of the underworld attack.


    Lacey frowned. “Did you hear about the rumors?”


    The three others nodded with grim expressions on their faces.


    Lacey sighed. “Why are we still being targeted? We’re just doing our jobs as a business!”


    “Don’t worry, Lacey! Zeke is too powerful for them!” Dawn said.


    Nancy scoffed. “That good-for-nothing beggar? Even a pig can do a better job than him! Sure, he’s a


    fighter, but I doubt he’ll be able to hold off any attacks at this scale!”


    Dawn looked at her usingly. “Nancy, why are you being so rude towards him? Does he owe you


    something?”


    “No worries, Lacey. Isn’t Master ymoore from North Hamptoning to protect Rivermouth?”


    Susan interjected. “Everything will be fine as long as Master ymoore is around.”


    Nancy nodded. “Yeah, you’re right. Besides, even if Master ymoore failed, my hero wille and


    save the day.”


    Nancy felt disappointed whenever she thought about her hero.


    She had seen her hero, General North, in person back at the opening ceremony, yet he did not have


    the time to visit her because he was so busy.


    Nancy regretted not approaching him directly.


    What a waste of an opportunity!


    “Yeah, I believe in Master ymoore too,” Lacey said, nodding.


    Suddenly, a group of people that looked like MMA fighters rushed into the building.


    “Who are the managers of this ce? Tell them toe here!” they yelled the moment they barged in.


    Everyone whirled around to look at them.


    Each of them was muscr and well-built. Together, they gave off an intimidating aura.


    The female employees began to back off in fear.


    One of them walked past the group, and the leader, who had a bowl cut, pushed her onto the floor


    roughly. “Hey! Are you blind? How dare you block my way?”


    The employee fell to the ground with a loud thud, the bowl in her hands shattering into pieces.


    One of the shards sliced her hand, making it bleed.


    She could only sit on the floor in shock as she stared at the man with the bowl cut.


    “What the hell?” Dawn spat, running over to help the employee up.
