Angle's Arrogance? My Pact with the Succubus Queen!

As people started asking questions, the ones who had fallen to the ground began crawling out of the broken glass.

One of them, a familiar tamer who knew medicine, picked up a wine glass and sniffed it. "This... this is poison! But why am I still alive?"

Everyone checked their bodies and looked around in confusion at the poisoned wine on the floor.

Logan took a quick look at the crowd, then turned and locked eyes with Alex. "Yeah, they didn't die. Are you mad?"

Alex was caught off guard by Logan's words. He gritted his teeth and said: "I don't know what you're talking about."

Logan sighed. "Stop pretending. Should I explain it for you?"

Alex sneered and waved his hand. "Take Logan down!"

As soon as Alex gave the order, Morgan family guards moved in fast. But they were stopped by agents from Natalia's Red Flower Guild.

Alex looked at Natalia with anger. "Natalia, are you really ready to fight the Morgan family again?"

Natalia rolled her eyes. "This time, no family is holding me back. Do you think I'll back down again?"

Alex was stunned by her words. He shouted, "You think you can beat me again?"

With a loud roar, a massive metal familiar suddenly appeared behind Alex — a huge mechanical creature that reached up to the sky.

Logan looked at the giant machine and immediately got all the info he needed.

[Name: Lost World's Giant Machine]

[Race: Machine Race·Steampunk]

[Stats: Lightning, Metal, Stone]

[Ranking: A Level 5 Stars]

[Stage: Legend 5 Stars (Almost Saint Stage)]

…

Just as Logan was about to study the giant machine familiar more, red light flashed inside its body. A lot of steam came out from all over its frame.

Natalia saw this and shouted right away: "Get down!"

Then, behind her, the Abyss Weaver sprinted out and charged at the Lost World's Giant Machine.

The two huge beasts clashed head-on — and for a moment, it was a real fight with no clear winner.

Logan watched and was shocked by Alex's power. "This guy is also Legend 5 Stars? Old Tattalia is a total beginner compared to him!"

Old Tattalia was standing right behind Logan, and Logan had just compared him to Alex. He sneered and said: "The Giant Machine is a Sacred Beast of the Human Federation. Of course it's stronger than me!"

After hearing Old Tattalia's words, Logan understood.

But he wasn't worried about Alex's strength.

Because Sophia and Lucia had also stepped in.

Three women fighting Alex — in a flash, they sent his giant machine back into its familiar space.

Alex landed on the stage again. His eyes were locked on Natalia, full of anger. "Natalia, do you even have any sense of being a strong fighter? You're ganging up on me?"

"Ha, what? Now you're talking about being strong after you lost?" Natalia stood between Lucia and Sophia, laughing.

At the same time, the crowd in the square had fully recovered. They couldn't believe Alex had tried to poison them. They pointed at him and demanded answers.

"Temporary Chairman, we all supported you! Why would you try to kill us?"

"You said I had a lot of potential. You said you'd help me grow. How could you try to kill me?"

"Liars! I even wanted to do surgery on you and become a woman just to have your baby! You have no heart!"

…

As the accusations kept coming, Alex's forehead veins bulged.

He sneered and used his familiar possession again. "How many of you got help from the Morgan family? Are you refusing to die now?"

When Alex admitted it out loud, the crowd fell silent.

Then Logan stepped forward with the microphone. His voice came out again: "Help? What did the Morgan family give you? The [Divine Fruit] or your status?"

Logan looked at Alex and laughed. "Everyone here who's a familiar tamer and has some power — who didn't get a [Divine Fruit] from the Morgan family?"

"Ten years ago, the [Divine Fruit] started showing up in the Federation. Some got it through competitions. Some got it by doing favors for you."

"In the last ten years, most of the leaders of powerful groups in the Federation suddenly appeared. They all had strong familiars. It was because they took the [Divine Fruit], right?"

Logan looked around the crowd and laughed again. "And you all — you probably used the [Divine Fruit] too, right?"

After saying that, Logan signaled two Red Flower Guild agents to bring over big projectors.

Logan showed everyone a video of Alex killing a familiar tamer.

When people saw Alex sacrifice a tamer and then kill their familiar to take its power, they all got scared.

Now, everyone understood why Alex tried to poison them — he was trying to take their power.

After realizing this, Holt looked at Alex in shock and shouted, voice shaking: "You... you... you lied to us!"

Those council members who had gotten the [Divine Fruit] from Holt just a few days ago stared at Alex in disbelief, unable to say a word.

Around them, some familiar tamers turned pale and looked shocked, not believing what they saw.

Alex looked around at the people and finally stopped on Logan. "How did you film this?"

Logan shrugged and laughed: "You forgot, didn't you? The ghosts you gave me can turn invisible and attach to anything."

Hearing that, Alex could no longer control his anger. He kicked over a nearby table and yelled, "Logan! You bastard!"

Logan looked coldly at Alex and picked up the microphone again. "Maybe because you're about to step down, you decided to harvest the seeds you planted over the years. That's why you gave out so many [Divine Fruits] lately. And tonight's party? Your plan was to kill these tamers, take the power from their familiars, and try to reach the [Saint Stage] — right?"

Logan had uncovered his plan. Alex's eyes turned even colder.

After hearing Logan's analysis, others were even more shocked.

They never expected the temporary chairman — the leader everyone loved and respected — to be so shameless.

"We have to catch him! No! We have to kill him!"

"Yes! Kill him! And destroy the Morgan family too!"

"They won't die, and we'll always be their prey!"

Suddenly, the crowd was filled with anger.

The guests who had just admired Alex now showed deadly looks. Some had already secretly opened their familiar spaces, ready to send out their familiars and fight Alex.

But Alex just laughed at them. "Do you think just because you didn't die from the wine, you can escape my hunt?"

As he spoke, more than ten familiar tamers were lifted into the air, unable to move.

Then, in their scared eyes, a blood-red vine grew behind Alex and stabbed through the ten tamers, killing them instantly.

Logan saw the vine and immediately thought of the huge blood tree he had seen underground before.

But Alex's vine was much weaker than that giant tree.

"Everyone, be careful! Run and scatter!"

The familiar tamers who had taken the [Divine Fruit] realized Alex had another way to control their bodies and take their strength. They ran in all directions in panic.

At the same time, Natalia and Sophia tried to stop him, but Alex still killed more than ten tamers.

As the tamers died, Alex's power suddenly increased.

He looked happy as he absorbed the power from their deaths, and his look was terrifying.

"This feeling... it's amazing!" Alex said, then released another familiar and started fighting with Natalia and Sophia.

At the same time, his blood-red vine continued to attack, stabbing at the familiar tamers who had taken the [Divine Fruit].

As more and more familiar tamers fell in front of him, Holt and the council members next to him were terrified.

They knew it was only a matter of time before they were next. They all sent out their familiars and tried to fight back against Alex.

Alex saw the group rushing toward him, and his eyes lit up. "Perfect! I'll absorb your power and might finally reach the Saint Stage!"

With that, more than twenty blood vines shot into the ground.

At that moment, Natalia and the others came in again. Lucia looked coldly at him and said with a sneer, "Do you even have time to worry about them?"

Alex fought off the three women while laughing: "The blood vines can track anyone who took the [Divine Fruit]. No one who took it can stop them. You guys aren't stopping me."

He said that with a proud look, "Once they are dead, I'll take my revenge on all three of you, one by one."

Just as he was about to command his army of familiars to keep fighting Natalia and the others, a huge fire lit up the sky, blinding Alex.

He turned around and saw his own blood vines—ones he had just praised—being burned by Holt and the others like firewood.

Alex stood frozen, shocked. "This can't be right! The blood vines can beat anyone who took the [Divine Fruit]! How could you stop them?!"
