The sun had fully risen, spilling light across the city streets. The warehouse was silent, its echoes of destruction fading into memory. Hwang Siyeok stood at its entrance, his green eyes scanning the horizon, calm yet infinitely alert. Behind him, his sister Hwang Mina clung to him slightly, and Shy Suya walked cautiously beside them, her mind still processing the events of the night.
"No one," Hwang said, voice calm but unwavering, "can ever hurt my family… or Shy Suya."
His words were not a threat — they were a fact. Absolute. Unchallengeable.
Even as the last traces of smoke from the battle drifted away, Hwang's senses detected movement: distant figures emerging from shadows, reconnaissance teams sent by William Shake's remnants, scouts testing the boundaries of his reach. Five million? Ten million? It no longer mattered — each was already accounted for.
Shy Suya's eyes widened. "H-Hwang… are you… detecting them all?"
He smiled faintly, almost imperceptibly. "I've already seen everything before it even arrived. Awareness is the first step to mastery. Everything else is a matter of execution."
Without a word, Hwang moved with fluid precision toward his motorcycle, Mina behind him. Shy Suya hesitated — but Hwang paused, placing a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "You're not just an observer anymore," he said softly. "Learn, watch, understand. One day, you'll see the world as I do."
Her cheeks flushed, but she nodded, determination replacing fear. For the first time, she felt that she could act, not just watch.
The distant hum of engines and the shuffle of tactical boots approached. Hwang's eyes narrowed. The enemies had regrouped faster than anticipated — stronger, smarter, more lethal than before. Nuclear-level weapons, AI-guided drones, elite mercenaries — all converging toward the warehouse.
Hwang Siyeok didn't flinch. He analyzed: attack vectors, enemy morale, potential weaknesses, environmental advantages, even the physics of explosions. Each calculation was completed in microseconds.
He revved his motorcycle, the luxurious engine responding instantly. With Mina safely seated behind him, and Shy Suya following on a secondary bike he had prepped for her, they moved as one unit — calm, precise, untouchable.
The first wave of enemies fired. Bullets, knives, grenades, even directed-energy weapons streaked toward him. Hwang's body moved before thought itself could react — faster than perception. Every projectile disintegrated in the air before reaching him. Every blade swung through nothing but empty space. He became a blur of impossible speed and precision.
Shy Suya's eyes widened as she followed his movements. "H-Hwang… he's… he's untouchable…"
Hwang glanced at her, faint smile. "And now, you'll learn why vigilance and calm are stronger than fear."
Within moments, entire squads were incapacitated — not through brute force alone, but through tactical genius. Explosions were redirected, drones disabled, enemy lines disrupted before they could even think of attacking. Hwang Siyeok's calm was not just presence; it was a battlefield principle.
From above, a new threat descended: a squadron of advanced aerial drones, each capable of nuclear-scale destruction. Hwang's green eyes flickered to the sky, scanning trajectories, calculating evasion patterns, and neutralization paths. With subtle gestures, the drones malfunctioned — circuits fried, propulsion disabled, weapons disarmed. Not a single human casualty. Not a single friendly casualty.
Shy Suya gasped. "H-Hwang… you… you're everywhere…"
Hwang nodded subtly. "Calm mastery sees all. And no one can hurt those under my protection."
He paused, taking a deep breath. "Family first. Friends second. And anyone who threatens them… will not see the next heartbeat."
Even as the enemies regrouped once more, Hwang Siyeok remained untouchable, a calm storm of infinite skill, infinite awareness, and infinite precision. Shy Suya, for the first time, felt that she was no longer just a bystander — under his guidance, she could start to understand what it meant to face the impossible without fear.
The city streets, once dangerous, were now a canvas under his control. Every movement, every threat, every possible outcome had already been calculated — and in his calm, untouchable presence, none could challenge him.
Hwang Siyeok's voice, low but commanding, echoed in their minds as they prepared for what lay ahead: "This is only the beginning. But no one… no one… will ever harm my family, or Shy Suya. Not today. Not ever."
And in that quiet, infinite calm, a new legend began — the legend of Hwang Siyeok, untouchable guardian, master of all possibilities, and the human beyond all limits.
