When they finished their battle, Hilda was still being held up by Eric, unconscious, sleeping without a shred of worry. She looked really peaceful and calm at that moment.

Eric looked around for their clothes, but there was not even a full piece of cloth around them, everything had been shredded to pieces.

​​

Eric didn't mind walking naked towards his home, but he couldn't allow others to have a look at his woman. Talk about double standards, but he was the MC of his life, so he did whatever he wanted.

It wasn't that, Akira, Mina, or Takeshiba Aika wanted to share him with other women, they just accepted it because he was the Alpha.

But that didn't matter much right now, as he just sent a text message to Akira to bring him some clothes.

Akira arrived in no time with new clothes for him and Hilda, as she was looking at Hilda with a bit of jealousy.

Noticing her jealousy, Eric approached her with Hilda still on his arms, and his monster inside her, as he put Hilda in between them, and then kissed her lips through Hilda's shoulder and said,

"Don't get jealous now, you will get the same treatment later!"

These words were enough for Akira to lose her look of jealousy and turn to a look of expectancy for later.

Releasing Hilda on the bed of his sleeping room with the girls, Eric left her under Akira's care and then walked towards his personal room.

No one was allowed to enter this particular room in the house, no one!

In order to not tire himself of looking for a bug, Eric had completely emptied the room, as there was only a rug in the middle of it where he sat to cultivate.

That wasn't all there was to it, as he had even set up some little mechanical traps at the door, in order to understand if someone had opened the door or not.

He had seen these in an anime he had watched once. Not only was there a letter at the top of the door, but he had also purposely left the doorknob tilted.

Normally no person would pay that much attention to how they left the doorknob after closing the door, so no one would doubt that.

But the moment he touched the doorknob Eric understood that something was wrong. With his spirit sense, he was able to perceive even the smallest changes if he truly concentrated on them.

Even though his doorknob wasn't in the normal position and it was a bit slighted it was off by 2 degrees.

Clearly, the intruder had tried its best to not leave any prints of the intrusion, but it hadn't worked out, as he or she hadn't been careful enough.

In a house protected and guarded by Inuhara Muto, Akira, and Hina it was certain that the person who had done that was someone close to him.

Most probably it was someone living in his house right now, but there was no way he would know who it was.

And if he decided to make the situation bigger than already was, would make things even more difficult for him to find the culprit, and he would certainly alarm the intruder.

The best way to act right now was to continue acting like nothing had happened, and then slowly smoke out the culprit.

With these thoughts in mind, he entered the room without making much of a noise, and then immediately went to sit over the rug and cultivate.

Seeing the current situation, it was impossible for him to go and have a look at his captive girls tonight, as he would raise too many suspicions if he suddenly disappeared in thin air.

Sitting in a lotus position he immediately started meditating and cultivating, as he slowly was circulating the Qi energy inside him.

It was still really difficult to do it, and his body seemed to be at its limits, so he would have to go another bath of Body Tempering Liquid as soon as possible.

But this damn week had been just overly busy he hadn't had even a small break to take care of it.

Not to mention that he also had to find a place that would not raise suspicions and fighters that would help him get used to his new strength.

Since he had already gathered a lot of excessive Experience from his killing spree, and his cultivation, he was surely going to jump more than a few levels.

He didn't know why but after refusing that second merge of the soul with the system, the system hadn't given him any more extra missions.

It was truly strange, he felt like the system had somehow understood that he had his doubts, and hesitations, and wasn't trying to help him as much as he did at the beginning.

That certainly would stop the speed at which he got stronger, but he wasn't in much of a hurry to strengthen himself right now, he was already going at a pretty high speed.

Furthermore, he was trying his best to use his system to be useful to him even if it didn't want to help him.

In his previous life, he had never taken a life that didn't have a high hatred towards him, and as a matter of fact, he had even tried to save some guys who tried to kill him.

But this time he was different!

This time he didn't care how much blood got on his hands, or how many lives were mowed down, as long as he was happy with himself and didn't cross his bottom line everything was perfect.

If he thought of these things in his previous life he most probably would have thought that he had gone crazy, but right now everything made sense.

Being betrayed by his family, his brothers, and everyone else had truly helped him mature and firmed his resolve.

Not to get things wrong, he didn't say that he was happy to have been betrayed and killed, it was just that he accepted the reality of the world.

Getting back in the past was a huge opportunity he was presented with, and he had to do everything he could to make the most of it.

And this time he even had a cheat system that could help him grow stronger, even though he didn't really trust his system that much.

Like life had taught him through experience, there is no such a thing as a free lunch in the real world.

After he was done with his cultivation, he just stayed there silently in meditation, as he started thinking about his next steps.

Now that he had become part of this whole complicated mess, he had to try his best to complicate it even more, and make everyone unable to solve it.

Only when the big guys fought each other would the little ones like him be able to eat from them, and grow up.

As the matters stood, there was no way that the Council of Five, or the big families would ever allow him to grow stronger, and stay by their side, and have his right in the decision.

No matter how powerful, or what background one had, they wouldn't be able to take a place at the top that easily.

Master Takeshiba had accepted their deal, and given Takeshiba Aika to him because he wanted to give a slap to the Council of Five, and at the same time use him to fight against them.

But there was no way he was going to allow Eric to grow much stronger than him, most probably he would try to kill him before it happened.

His acceptance to the engagement was nothing more than poison covered in sweet honey so that he wouldn't doubt at him.

But Eric wasn't the kind of guy to fall for that. Especially after being betrayed and killed once, he had started to have a few backup plans even against his own shadow.

In the future, there might be people that he would believe in once again, but until then, everyone was a suspect in his eyes.

After all, even now, in a house that was supposed to be filled with people he could trust, there was a mole that was trying to spy on him.

But this was also a sign that some people had started to get restless, and that he had to be even more careful from now on.

After more than an hour of thinking, he finally decided that it was enough as he was just creating more and more complicated scenarios for himself, he stood up and walked for the kitchen.

He was extremely hungry so he was hoping that there was some good food over there, and truly Akira and Mina never failed him.

While their cooking skills weren't as good as his, they were really capable of cooking delicious dishes, as he started immediately to eat like a hungry wolf.

Seeing him eat like that, would make people think that he might have more than a double personality, as this wasn't the face of a cold-blooded killer.

Finishing his meal, he picked up the two ladies in his arms, as he made way towards their sleeping room, for a battle of love, and stamina.

The battle continued for more than 3 hours, as in the middle of Hilda woke up and joined the battle too, but it was still insufficient to beat Eric.

The next morning, Eric and Hilda woke up early, as they made their way to the Takeshiba Group of Companies in Eric's car.

Who would have expected though that the moment the car was leaving the complex, a bomb was set up underground to explode when they drew over, and sent the car flying in pieces…
