CITY CONQUER SYSTEM

Chapter 14

Genevieve reached into her military dress pocket and pulled out a silver remote detonator linked directly to the twelve antimatter pillars outside the building.

"Thirty minutes left on the countdown," Genevieve said with a maniacal, lethal smile. "I've programmed this button. Once the core is pressed, the antimatter detonation cannot be stopped, not even by your system. You, your women, and all of Veridia City will turn to ash tonight!"

"And yourself?" Ryder asked calmly.

"I have a dimensional shield capsule on the upper helipad," Genevieve replied confidently. "I can leave whenever I want after watching you crumble."

Ryder let out a low chuckle—a laugh full of dominance that instantly made the hair on Genevieve's neck stand on end.

"You talk too much, Genevieve," Ryder said.

BWOOOSH!

Without giving Genevieve a chance to press the detonator in her hand, Ryder charged forward at Apex speed! Even though his physical frame was bearing the weight of a fifty percent energy reduction due to the warp, his movement speed still surpassed the limits of normal human vision.

"Ryder!" Ava and Victoria screamed in unison.

"Open fire!" Genevieve shouted in panic.

The remaining three elite Vance Royal Guard soldiers abruptly leaped in front of Genevieve, raising high-powered electromagnetic energy shields. Yet Ryder did not slow his pace in the slightest.

CRASH!

Ryder slammed his physical strike directly into the center of the energy shield! A shockwave of air exploded inside the penthouse, shattering the remaining wooden furniture and sending those three heavily armored soldiers flying through the concrete wall behind them.

Genevieve’s eyes widened in sheer horror at Ryder's raw physical strength. Before she could press the silver detonator in her hand, her smooth wrist was already held in a vise grip by Ryder's firm fingers!

SNAP!

"Arghhh!" Genevieve shrieked in pain as the pressure from Ryder's fingers crushed her wrist. The silver remote detonator slipped from her grip and fell toward the floor.

With the power of Absolute Telekinesis, Ryder snatched the falling detonator mid-air and crushed it into metallic dust in an instant!

"M-my detonator...!" Genevieve screamed hysterically, her eyes wide with disbelief.

"Your cheap detonator game is over, Genevieve," Ryder hissed right in front of his biological sister's face.

Ryder yanked Genevieve’s arm, slamming the Eldest Daughter’s alluring body onto the mahogany executive desk in the center of the room.

CRASH!

The crystal goblet and document dossiers were pushed aside. Genevieve lay sprawled on the desk, her luxurious white military dress in disarray, her silver tiara coming loose and rolling across the floor.

"Let go of me, you bastard! How dare you lay a hand on my body!" Genevieve roared in fury, attempting to gather energy from her Primordial Authority System to break free.

However, the thick, boundless aura of Ryder’s Alpha Dominance exploded absolute force within the room! A high-level surge of charm, dominance, and psychological pressure pierced straight through Genevieve's mental defense system.

Thump!

Genevieve's heart pounded wildly and unnaturally. The cells within her body, which had always viewed herself as the supreme ruler, suddenly trembled violently. The hatred and resentment she felt were abruptly distorted by a wave of forced passion and biological submission driven by Ryder's Alpha aura.

"W-what... what are you doing to me... Ryder...?" Genevieve's voice trembled, her previously steady breathing now coming fast and ragged. Her firm chest beneath the white military dress rose and fell intensely.

Ryder climbed onto the mahogany desk, pressing down upon the alluring body of the Vance Empire's Eldest Daughter. His firm hands pinned both of Genevieve's wrists securely above her head.

"You always thought you were a Queen above everything, Genevieve," Ryder said in a low, deep voice burning with sensual threat. "You threw me away because you were afraid of my power... and tonight, I will prove that your fear ten years ago was a reality."

"N-no... don't... Ryder... I'm your sister..." Genevieve whispered, her cold, arrogant defense crumbling completely. Her gorgeous face flushed bright red, her gray eyes usually filled with cruelty now growing misty, swallowed by a wave of shame, fear, and unbearable passion erupting from deep within her soul.

"In the world we live in, Genevieve... blood doesn't dictate who rules," Ryder said coldly. "Power and conquest determine who has the right to sit on the throne."

Ryder's firm hand moved to the front of Genevieve's white military dress, ripping the gold-trimmed collar open in one powerful pull!

RIP!

The expensive silk fabric tore open, exposing Genevieve's porcelain-white smooth skin and her firm chest encased in a transparent black lace bra. The flawless beauty of the Vance Empire's Eldest Daughter, which had never been touched or imagined by any man in the world, was now exposed completely beneath the dim lighting of the penthouse.

Ava, Serena, Victoria, and Katherine, who witnessed the scene from a close distance, held their breath. They saw how a woman who controlled a global imperial military was now trembling in total surrender beneath their man's grip.

"Ryder... please..." Genevieve hissed submissively, tears of humiliation trickling from the corner of her eyes as Ryder's warm lips suddenly swept across her slender neck, gently biting the sensitive skin there.

A searing heat instantly surged through Genevieve's entire central nervous system. Ten years of arrogance melted into absolute biological obedience. Her hands, which had initially tried to struggle, reflexively wrapped around Ryder's broad neck, clutching his black hair while letting out an ecstatic gasp.

[City Conqueror System: Genevieve Vance Conquest Process Initiated!]

[Enhancing Host Vital Energy Recovery: +20%!]

[Level 5 Authority Mastery in Synchronization Process!]

Atop the desk of power that stood as a silent witness to the fall of Veridia's old alliance, Ryder Vance subdued the Eldest Daughter of the Vance Empire. Their union unfolded with an extraordinarily deep, powerful intensity of passion and absolute dominance. Every powerful movement from Ryder's Apex physique extracted screams of satisfaction and submissive gasps from Genevieve's lips—shattering her crown of pride until nothing remained.

---

An hour later.

Faint traces of thin smoke drifted gently inside the quiet penthouse.

Genevieve Vance lay limp on the mahogany desk, her torn white military dress draped over part of her smooth, sweat-glistening body. Her beautiful face was flushed red, her gray eyes gazing up at Ryder standing near her with a completely transformed look—one filled with devotion, fear, and deep affection.

`[COUNTDOWN UNTIL DETONATION: 00:03:15]`

`[COUNTDOWN UNTIL DETONATION: 00:03:14]`

Only three minutes remained on the computer screen countdown before the antimatter pillars detonated.

Genevieve, her fingers still trembling, reached for the secret control panel hidden beneath the desk. In a raspy voice filled with submission, she whispered to her internal computer.

"Authority... Genevieve Vance... cancel Primordial Execution Protocol Level 5... transfer full control to... Ryder Vance..."

[BEEP!]

[MAXIMUM AUTHORITY LEVEL TRANSFERRED!]

[Execution Protocol Canceled!]

[Twelve Antimatter Pillars Deactivated!]

[City Conqueror System Unlocked 100%: Host Becomes Lawful Owner of 'Vance Primordial Empire'!]

The glowing silver-purple light outside the building slowly faded. Veridia City was completely saved from destruction.

Ava, Serena, Victoria, and Katherine let out immense sighs of relief. The four of them stepped closer to Ryder, surrounding him with looks of ever-deepening admiration and respect.

Ryder casually put his white shirt back on. His vital energy, which had previously dropped, was now fully restored thanks to the authority transfer process from Genevieve through the system.

"Good job, Genevieve," Ryder said flatly, stroking the head of the Eldest Daughter, who was now kneeling on the desk while wrapping her arms around his waist.

"My entire life... my military... and the imperial throne... are now yours, Ryder..." Genevieve whispered submissively, clutching Ryder's shirt. "I will never oppose you again..."

However, before Ryder could step out of the penthouse to consolidate his absolute victory over Veridia and Eldoria, a unique ringtone chimed from Genevieve's specialized silver wristwatch resting on the floor.

The projector screen of the watch automatically lit up, beaming a three-dimensional hologram into the air.

The figure of an old man with silver-white hair dressed in a grand gold robe materialized within the holographic glow. The man held a staff encrusted with black diamonds, and his eyes radiated a terrifying ancient majesty.

He was Lord Alexander Vance—the Grand Founder of the Vance Empire and the biological father of Ryder and Genevieve, who for decades was rumored to be dead or in a state of death-like hibernation!

Genevieve gasped in shock at the holographic glow. "F-Father...?"

The old man's hologram did not look at Genevieve; instead, his sharp gaze locked directly onto Ryder Vance.

The aura radiated by the old man's hologram was so potent that it caused the system sensors inside Ryder's mind to chime sharply, issuing an unprecedented hazard warning!

[BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!]

[GOD-TIER SYSTEM ANOMALY WARNING!]

[Detecting Presence of 'Primary System Core Creator'!]

[Lord Alexander Vance Possesses Level 0 Authority Access (Creator Authority)!]

The old man in the hologram examined Ryder from head to toe, and a mysterious, ice-cold smile carved onto his wrinkled face.

"Congratulations, my son Ryder..." the old man's voice echoed through the penthouse, brimming with a soul-shaking tone of grandeur. "You have successfully completed the final trial of the 'City Conqueror System' I created ten years ago."

Ryder narrowed his eyes, his chest tightening sharply. "Trial...?"

The old man let out a soft chuckle—an ancient laugh that made the entire room feel frozen.

"Did you think your suffering in the Veridia gutters, Genevieve's betrayal, and your entire conquest of these cities were coincidences?" Lord Alexander said with glowing golden eyes. "All of it was merely a natural selection simulation I designed to mature your physical vessel."

"And now... your physical vessel has reached a flawless 'Apex' state."

The old man raised his black diamond staff within the hologram, and secret location coordinates situated at the deepest ocean floor on Earth projected onto the screen.

"Come to the Primordial Atlantis Fortress within forty-eight hours, Ryder..." Lord Alexander said in a tone that turned exceptionally heavy and lethal.

"If you manage to defeat me there... you will inherit the true throne controlling this entire planet. But if you fail... your soul and your entire system will be reclaimed by me to serve as energy for the resurrection of my eternal body."

BZZZZT!

The hologram abruptly cut out, leaving behind the deep-ocean coordinates blinking red in mid-air.

[COORDINATES UNLOCKED: PRIMORDIAL ATLANTIS FORTRESS]

[COUNTDOWN TO FINAL TRIAL: 47:59:59]

The atmosphere inside the penthouse grew intensely fraught once more. Ava, Serena, Victoria, Katherine, and Genevieve stared at Ryder with indescribable shock and fear. They had just realized that the conquest of these cities and powerful women was merely the beginning of a far darker, more dangerous god-tier conspiracy.

Ryder Vance stood tall in the center of the room, staring at the red coordinates blinking in the air. His red-gold eyes blazed brightly with absolute ferocity.

Whoever designed his destiny—even the System's Creator himself—would kneel beneath his hands.
