"Son, you're still too young," Leslie replied.Franko frowned vehemently and could not understand his father. "Too young? What do you mean by that?"Leslie looked around and instructed the others, "Guard the door. I want to talk privately with Franko.""Yes, sir!"The others were curious about what Leslie wanted to tell Franko but knew they were not in the place to hear it."Dad, they're gone now. What do you want to tell me?"Franko smiled bitterly. Based on how cautious his father was, he knew his father would tell him a secret. Otherwise, he would not have asked the others to leave them alone.Leslie nodded. "You have to promise me that you can't tell anyone what I'm about to tell you. This is just for you to know."Franko nodded in understanding.Leslie continued, "Dracodom is far more powerful than you think. The country only shows you what they want you to know, just like those secluded sects. They've already secluded themselves from this mundane world, living in their o
"What?! The weakest among them is a level two warrior emperor?"Franko's eyes lit up. He looked spirited because he felt hopeful again. After his father's defeat, he thought no one else was stronger than Severin, and he could never have his revenge.The only thing he hated was he had to sacrifice himself to please a woman he did not like."The secret organization is called Shadraw. They are the protectors of Dracodom. No one knows who they are other than the King. They protect the safety of the country. Sometimes, they'll be assigned to missions like assassinating foreigners that threaten the safety of our country, but that's very rare," Leslie explained."Shadraw…. I had no idea there was a secret organization protecting the country!"Franko nodded and continued, "Dad, let's say that Severin is most likely a level four warrior emperor. Are any of the Shadraw members stronger than him? If they're just a bunch of warrior emperors below level three, they can't do anything to Severin
For the next two days, Severin and the others continued to bring Sofia out on sightseeing tours. On the third day, Sofia finally bid goodbye to them.When she almost reached Stormy Moon Sect, she remembered to look at the alchemical pill Severin gave her."I wonder what alchemical pill Severin gave me. I can confirm it's a second-grade, but I don't know its rank. Too bad. It's not going to have any great effect on me. What a waste."Sofia took out the porcelain bottle and smiled sweetly. "Anyway, it's the thought that counts. At least, I know he kept a place for me in his heart."In the meantime, she opened the porcelain bottle to take a look.Suddenly, her eyes widened, and her mouth remained wide open. She could not believe what she saw; it was too surreal.It was a third-grade low-rank alchemical pill."A third-grade low-rank alchemical pill! If I'm correct, the effect of this alchemical pill is to boost attainment. Is Severin a third-grade low-rank alchemist now?"She looke
Once Sofia had everything thought out, she sped up. When she arrived, it was the next morning. The first thing she did was to go look for Meldrick.It was definitely a surprise for Meldrick to see the woman he had a crush on visiting him. He smiled and walked over."Sofia, you're back. Where did you go? Were you out completing your mission?"However, Sofia looked fierce and sullen. She glared at Meldrick and questioned him, "Meldrick, what the hell is wrong with you? Did you cause trouble for Severin because he humiliated you? Have you forgotten what I told you? He's my savior, so we can't help the Jolls."Meldrick frowned. "When did I do that? Sofia, you can't just accuse me without any evidence."Even though Meldrick refused to admit it, he felt nervous. 'Did Sofia find out that I went to find Severin and got beaten up?' he thought.Sofia snorted and questioned, "No one else knows about this other than us. If you didn't tell Ronnie, why would he want to kill Severin?"It was a
"What?"Meldrick gasped. His mouth remained open, looking aghast.It took him a while to finally gather his thoughts. He exclaimed, "Sofia! Are you kidding me? Do you just say Severin killed Ronnie? That's impossible!"Sofia started to wonder if she had misunderstood Meldrick. Perhaps Meldrick did not tell Ronnie that Severin had killed Brandon. Meldrick did not look like he knew Ronnie had tried to Kill Severin.She scoffed, "Why is it impossible? Ronnie tried to kill Severin because Severin killed his son. Severin was the one who told me. He won't lie to me about that. Severin is stronger than Ronnie. In the end, Ronnie was the one who got killed instead.""Oh! Isn't Severin almost the same age as us? How did he improve so fast? Ronnie is a level seven warrior emperor! With that said, Severin's attainment is higher than a level seven warrior emperor."Meldrick was shocked. Previously, he convinced himself that Ronnie must have gotten killed by Ronnie's enemies on the way to kil
Draven came over. "Meldrick, what's with that look?"Draven had been in the Stormy Moon Sect for quite some time. Due to his gifted talent, he had trained to become a level nine warrior king. An elder had noticed Draven's talent and considered recruiting him as his inner disciple.At first, that was what Draven wanted to tell Meldrick because the elder had gone to inform the sect leader. Then, he realized Meldrick was not in a good mood. Meldrick looked at Draven and exclaimed, "F*ck! I just found out Severin is super strong. I don't think we could ever kill him."Draven was surprised. "No way! How can he be super strong? Isn't he just a level four or five warrior emperor?"Meldrick answered, "He killed Ronnie. That means he's at least a level seven or even a level eight warrior emperor."Draven gasped in shock. "What? Are you saying he killed Ronnie, and that's why Ronnie hasn't returned?"Meldrick nodded. "Yes. Sofia returned to the sect. She said she visited Severin because
Meldrick's mood worsened. He asked hastily, "Draven, is there anything else you want to tell me? If not, I'm going to head to the Mission Department."Draven came to look for Meldrick to brag about his promotion to an inner disciple of an elder. Then, he decided not to since Meldrick was not in a good mood.Draven was afraid that telling Meldrick would only make him feel even worse. Besides, it was not official yet.After making a decision, he smiled. "Nothing. I was just passing by, so I thought of visiting you.""Okay. I'm leaving."Meldrick nodded and flew into the sky to the Mission Department.Shortly, he arrived and saw Lindy. "Hey, Lindy, are you helping out in the Mission Department?"Lindy clasped her hands respectfully when she saw it was Meldrick."Hi, Meldrick. My attainment is too low, so there aren't many missions suitable for me, so I thought of helping out here. I can earn some merit points, at least. I know, I can't compare myself to you or the others with high
Meldrick left after he reminded Lindy.Meanwhile, Sofia went to look for her father."My darling, where did you go? Why are you smiling so happily? Did something good happen to you?" Birk asked when he saw Sofia smiling happily.Sofia poured herself a glass of water, took a sip, and sat down."Hehe! Of course, I'm happy. I'm going to have a breakthrough and become a level four warrior emperor soon.Birk was stunned. He could not believe what he heard."How's that possible? Are you joking? It's only been a few days since your last breakthrough. How could you be having another breakthrough so soon?"He thought hard about it, and suddenly, it struck him. "Did you get a powerful treasure? That's the only explanation. Breakthrough doesn't come easily, especially in the warrior emperor stage."Sofia flipped her hand and took out a small porcelain bottle. She opened the bottle and used telekinesis to have the alchemical pill fly out from the bottle."Look at this."Sofia smiled grat
