"I was just going to let Dalton deal with you after we broke your legs. I didn't want to get involved, being a delicate woman and all. But you've forced my hand with your disrespect, and you'll pay the price!"I hear you have an invitation to tonight's event. Well, I'll find out who was foolish enough to give one to you. Everyone associated with you will face consequences for your stupidity!"Hazel's arrogance knew no bounds. As Dalton's wife, she believed she could punish anyone who dared question or disrespect her.One of Hazel's four bodyguards chuckled menacingly. "You heard Mrs. Archer. On your knees!"Without warning, he aimed a vicious kick at Matthias as his other companions also sprang into action—one targeting Alpha while the other two went for Leona and Nadine. It was clear that they aimed to cripple Matthias and his family in one swift strike.Matthias was instantly enraged, and a terrifying aura emanated from him as he faced the oncoming attacker."You're asking for

"Kill him! Kill them all!" Hazel roared.Suddenly, another sharp smack echoed through the room—Matthias had slapped Hazel again. The crowd gasped in shock, believing he had pushed things to the brink."Say one more word, and I'll kill you with my own hands," Matthias growled, his eyes cold and murderous.He had Alpha kill Hazel's bodyguards because they had attacked first, even targeting Leona and Danielle. However, Hazel's constant threats against his family pushed him over the edge. If she had not been a woman, she would already be dead."Mrs. Archer, are you alright?" Danielle rushed to Hazel's side, looking concerned, while others crowded around her, offering sympathy and support.Hazel glared at Matthias in silence, seething with rage."You slapped me twice and killed my men. Do you understand what's coming for you?" Hazel's tone was icy.Matthias sneered. "What's coming for me? What? Dalton? He's as worthless as a speck of dust to me."The room erupted in shocked murmurs.

The ballroom doors burst open with a resounding bang as Dalton stormed in, his face contorted with fury. His eyes immediately locked on Matthias, casually seated at the head table.The sight only fueled Dalton's rage. He roared, his voice dripping with malice, "So, you're Matthias? Get over here and face your death!"Stuart smirked, his eyes gleaming with excitement. "Matthias, Mr. Archer has arrived. Crawl over here on your knees and accept your fate!"The Lowell family joined in, their voices rising in a chorus of taunts."Matthias, are you deaf? Mr. Archer gave you an order. Get over here and face your death!"At the head table, Matthias cast a dismissive glance at Dalton, a hint of mockery in his eyes. "You're Dalton? You sure you won't regret your words?"Hazel's piercing voice cut through the tension as she glared at Matthias. "How dare you! Who are you to question him? Know your place and come here to face your death!"The crowd around them echoed her sentiments, hurling

Dalton's mocking laugh echoed through the room. "If you're so eager to die, I'll gladly oblige."Pierre sneered. "You're too ignorant, Matthias. With no connections in New Avalbourne, where do you get the nerve to act so boldly?"He continued, his voice dripping with disdain, "Even if you have some impressive status abroad, this is New Avalbourne. You've sealed your fate, and the Lowells will crush you like you're nothing!"Pierre held back from revealing their trump card—the Crimson Titans, the family's formidable international force. Even if Matthias had foreign backing, it would not matter.Brock bit his tongue, realizing he could not stop Dalton and the others from rushing to their doom."Elite Squad, attack!" Dalton barked. "Kill anyone who interferes!"His glance at Brock made the threat clear—If Brock insisted on protecting Matthias, he would face the consequences.As the Elite Squad charged forward, Brock stepped aside, observing silently. Dalton and his allies smirked,

"Dalton, how's this possible?" Hazel's face turned ashen, her body trembling. She could not believe her idol, her pillar of strength, had fallen.Even Dalton was in disbelief. Since joining the military, he had never tasted defeat. Yet, he had been beaten by a single kick."Warlord? What a joke!" Alpha scoffed. "If Lord Matthias hadn't held me back, I would've crushed you with one punch!""This can't be happening! I refuse to believe it!" Dalton roared, his eyes bloodshot as he glared at Matthias.The Hero's Banquet was supposed to be his moment of triumph, but he had become a laughingstock."I've buried hundreds of nobodies like you," Matthias said icily.The crowd held their breath, cold sweat running down their backs. Matthias described a warlord like Dalton as a nobody, even mentioning he had defeated hundreds of them.When did warlords become so weak?Most of the onlookers felt like they were dreaming. Young admirers who had idolized Dalton felt their faith crumbling, and
