Stragga looked over all the sexy naked women sleeping around him, and he huffed with a small smile as he remembered the wild party he had thrown the previous night. Stragga’s life had really changed ever since he became a superhuman! He couldn’t believe how he somehow managed to go from living in an orphanage and begging for scraps to becoming the strongest man in the world!

Knock! Knock! Knock!

"Master Stragga. Are you awake?"

"Come in."

Stragga spoke with a grunt as he heard the knock on his door again, and the person on the other end opened the door and finally entered. It was an old butler with a dignified appearance around him. He had short white hair and a beautifully trimmed white moustache that somehow made him look even more dignified! This man was Mr. Vanta, the Butler and caretaker of the Stragga mansion, as well as the personal assistant of Stragga Yuslev. The moment Vanta entered the room, he ignored all the naked girls lying around, as well as the intense smell of sex that filled the entire room, and Vanta simply bowed to Stragga respectfully before he spoke up.

"There is a message for you, Master Stragga." 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Stragga grunted, and he stretched his hand out to tell Vanta to give it to him. Vanta approached and handed Stragga a tablet that had the message on it! Stragga began to read through the message on the tablet, and Vanta watched Stragga’s expression closely as he noticed Stragga’s face squeezing into a frown before Stragga grit his teeth in anger, and an aura of pure rage began to pour out from him in waves! Just that aura alone was able to shock every single person in the room, and all the girls who had been sleeping immediately sat up in shock when they felt it!

"W-What was that?"

"What’s going on!?"

Many of them moved away from Stragga in fear once they saw the expression on his face, and when Stragga clicked his tongue in irritation, Vanta realised that he needed to remove the women so they wouldn’t interrupt their conversation! Vanta called on all the women and asked them to please leave the room immediately, and Vanta didn’t even need to say anything more as the women quickly gathered their clothes and began to rush out of the room! The women had no idea what was wrong or what had made Stragga so angry, but they were smart enough to know that they didn’t want to be anywhere near one of the strongest men in the world when he looked so angry! Once the girls had finally left the room, Stragga looked up at Vanta, and he snarled out a question.

"When is he coming back?"

Vanta shook his head to say that he did not know, and Stragga just snarled again. The message that Stragga had received was a very simple one, but it still managed to make his entire body shake with rage! The tablet in Stragga’s hand had a news article written by a trusted news agency in America, and the headline had only four words written in all caps! ’JASON MARC IS BACK!’. All around America, the news channels were going wild with the news of Jason Marc’s return, and even though the article said that Jason was not yet back on Earth, they said that the source of their information was trusted enough for them to believe that Jason was definitely going to be returning soon! And although the rest of the world was either jubilating or celebrating Jason’s return! Stragga could only feel a cold anger in his heart as he thought about that man.

’The man that took everything from me.’

Stragga looked down at the article again, and he glared at the image of Jason that was there! The image showed Jason walking across the street with some wolf companions around him, and there was a strange aura of power that Stragga could feel coming from Jason, even though this was only a picture. It was obvious that this man was strong!

In truth, Stragga was one of the people who had been anticipating Jason’s return more than anyone else! And the reason for that was simple! Stragga wanted to kill Jason! Stragga’s ambitions to take Jason’s life wasn’t just some delusion! Stragga believed with every fiber of his being that he would be able to kill Jason if he wanted to, and Stragga knew that he wouldn’t be able to live with himself if he didn’t kill this man! The first time Stragga thought about challenging and killing Jason was when the news of Jason’s exploits first came to Russia! For more than ten years, Stragga had been the strongest man in the world, and he had enjoyed all the perks that came with that title! Stragga’s life was far more comfortable than that of a fucking king, and even the president of Russia wouldn’t dare to stand up to him because of that title! But when the news of a man in America who was being hailed as the strongest reached Russia, people started to whisper and point fingers at Stragga as they wondered if he still deserved his title! Jason’s exploits were undeniable, and it was obvious that he was powerful, but Stragga refused to believe that some new superhuman who barely had his power for five months would be able to match him in strength!

Stragga had immediately doubled his efforts in the Gates to try and pull people’s support back towards him! But no matter how much Stragga did, and no matter how many Gates he closed, it was simply impossible for him to change the mind of the masses since everyone already believed that Jason Marc was the strongest man alive! Not only was Jason Marc an SSS Rank, but Jason Marc could also summon hundreds of different monsters that were all powerful! There wasn’t a single person who could stand up to that much power!

Jason Marc had snatched the title of Strongest away from Stragga without any effort at all, and if this was the only thing Jason Marc had done to him, then maybe Stragga wouldn’t be feeling the anger that he was currently feeling in his heart! But Stragga’s anger towards Jason Marc had reached a boiling point when Stragga heard the news that his brother Yuslev Anthon was killed by Jason Marc in America! Stragga knew that Yuslev had always been a rebellious person. Yuslev had gone into the Green Gate with Stragga ten years ago, and what they saw in there had warped Yuslev’s mind and driven him crazy! This pushed Yuslev to create a cult of people that followed his teachings, and Yuslev tried to change the world using this New Order group that he had created! But the only reason why Yuslev did those things was because he was traumatised from what he had seen in the gate! Yuslev had actually started his ambitions from Russia, but he was stopped by Stragga easily, and Stragga tried ot talk Yuslev out of his actions, but Yuslev managed to somehow escape from Russia, and Stragga had already been planning to go to America to take Yuslev back with him! But before he could even leave for America, Stragga heard the news that Yuslev had been killed by Jason Marc!

That wasn’t justice! It was murder! Why did Jason have to kill someone who was already struggling with a mental illness!? Does Jason even understand what the Rulers had seen inside the Green Gate!? If Jason had been there, then Jason would have known that Yuslev’s madness was completely understandable! The monsters that they saw within that gate were beyond human comprehension, and the only reason Stragga retained his senses was because he was stronger than the others! Every single member of the Rulers was going through one trauma or another due to that mission, and Stragga couldn’t forgive anyone who would use that mental illness as an excuse to kill someone close to him!
