Before long, they all arrived back at Severin's home."I can already imagine a plaque bearing the words 'South County Mansion' being installed on this gate in another two days!" Zachariah was overwhelmed with some emotion as he stared at the huge gate.Though he disliked Severin, looked down on Severin, and wanted to stop Sheila from pursuing Severin when she was just getting to know him, his view of Severin had since changed, and he felt that he would be the lucky one if his daughter could end up becoming Severin's wife."Severin!" Felicia walked over and called out to him as soon as she saw him return. "Hall Masters Gracie, Larry, and Mick are all here. They're waiting for you inside!"After informing Severin that he had guests, she saw that Zachariah was there too and said with a smile, "Oh, Mister Zachariah! It's been a while! I didn't expect you to be here too! Dinner will be very lively tonight, that's for sure!""We met Severin and Diane outside along with their newly-recru
Severin, Diane, and everyone else left the hotel together after having their fill of food and wine. Once they left the hotel, Severin gathered the four hall masters together.When Larry saw that no outsiders were present there except for them, he asked Severin, "Is there a reason you called us all over?"Severin smiled. "As I've told you before, I have something good for you!" He then produced three small porcelain bottles and handed them to Larry, Mick, and Gracie. "There are four first-grade high-rank pills in each of these bottles. Train hard after eating them, and do your best to break through to level one warrior king as soon as possible. There are four pills for each person, so feel free to work out a schedule that suits your needs best!"Severin then turned to Rachel and said, "Those pills aren't effective for you since you're already a level four warrior king, so there's no point giving them to you. I'll only give you some once I succeed in refining second-grade pills!""A
"Tsk, tsk. The number of level one warrior kings will increase in a flash during the next couple of days, and their overall strength will become a force to be reckoned with!" Rachel was also filled with awe after hearing that. "Honestly, I've heard alchemists before, but I've never seen one. I've known long ago that there were very few people who master such a profession, but the possibilities and prospects of those who succeed will be truly endless. It's even more formidable when an alchemist is as talented as our supreme leader.""That's right, only a first-grade high-rank alchemist can produce some strong warrior kings!" Gracie also said with emotion.Once Severin heard that, he smiled lightly and said, "This is just a warrior king we're talking about here. Your goal is to break through to level nine warrior king in eleven months, but it'll be even better if you can break through to level one warrior emperor!""Warrior emperor." The four of them had convoluted expressions when th
Larry exchanged glances with Mick and laughed.Mick smiled. "Do you think we're the type of people who love being sycophants? We're just telling being honest here. This is the first time I've seen a genius like you!""That's right! You said that we'd have eleven months to break through to level nine warrior king, but it all feels so dreamlike even now. I can't imagine reaching such a high level of attainment!" Larry seemed to feel a little unconfident in his abilities."Let's all work our hardest. As for the remaining eight halls, you need to send more people out to locate them, and don't forget to reward those who have managed to find the other halls. Understood?" Severin then reminded everyone once again."Don't worry. We'll reward them for sure!" Gracie said boldly."All right then! This meeting is hereby dismissed. Try to get a breakthrough when you have time to spare!" Severin waved his hand and bid farewell to them.He, along with the Shanahans, drove back home in no time.
As soon as Eustace saw Severin, he immediately stepped forward and knelt in front of the man. "Thank you for saving me, Mister Severin. I would be dead if it weren't for you. I promise to work hard under you to repay your kindness!"Severin smiled and helped him up. "No thanks necessary. All you need to do is train hard from now on and improve yourself!"Having said that, he asked Lillie to arrange a place for the two of them to stay. Once they had settled down, he gathered all the bodyguards he hired and have them wait for him in the yard. Severin looked at all the bodyguards in front of him and nodded with satisfaction. "There are thirty-one of you, and if we add the bodyguards that I brought over from Brookbourn, then the total would be a somewhat small team of only fifty people. I've already helped some of my longer-serving bodyguards improve their attainment, so now I'm going to do the same for all thirty-one of you. Every one of you here can break through to level one warrior
Diane rolled her eyes at Sheila. "What are you talking about? You're very good-looking, and you're also kind at heart. How could you say such a thing?""Even though he saved me yesterday, I still feel like a useless person. His attainment must be very high, while I have nothing! My attainment is terrible, and I'd probably only be a burden if I stay by his side!" Sheila then said.Diane felt the same way before too. "We can train up until the level of a grandmaster, and once we reach level nine, we'll be able to protect ourselves a little. At the very least, we don't need to be afraid of normal thugs anymore."Sheila smiled wryly. "I don't have the talent for attainment. I've trained before, and now I'm a level five grandmaster, but I later heard the elders saying that those without attainment talent will never be able to have a breakthrough to profound master because they can't sense the spiritual energy surrounding them. That's the reason we can't have any more breakthroughs, and w
"Babe! That's the guy! That's the one who bullied me!" Namvail's people had arrived too, and the person who made that remark was Surina, who had gone up to her husband Regan and complained to him after seeing Severin in the distance.Regan looked over immediately. "Why is he here? Hmph, he's too powerful for us, babe. We're no match for him right now, but once I become the governor, I'll hire a strong person in the future to help you end his life!""Thank you, hubby! You can do it! I believe you!" Surina said and immediately kissed Regan on the face.Regan pretended to be modest as he said, "You can't be so confident, you know. Even if my relationship with Mister Calum is pretty good and I had dinner with him before, there's no telling who will be appointed as the new south county governor."Regan then led his men to where Severin was and glanced at Severin with disdain. "I heard you're from Brookbourn. Are you here to witness the ceremony?"Severin could not help himself from smi
"Is that so? I'm happy to oblige. We can then see if your elders have what it takes to take me on!" Severin maintained his faint smile and walked in."Is he from Brookbourn Mansion?" Yacob asked angrily as he looked at Severin from behind.Beside him, Surina came forward. "No, he's not. He's probably from some small family!""Hehe, how dare he show such arrogance when he's not even from Brookbourn Mansion?" Yacob became even angrier, and after a moment's thought, he said to the old man beside him, "Tail that kid once the conferment ceremony ends. If you get a chance to kill him, do it without any hesitation.""Not a problem!" The old man nodded immediately.Manny, who stood behind him, was secretly reveling in delight. As long as Severin was killed, then Manny would have a field day dealing with Severin's woman. When the time comes and she loses her backing, she might just decide to be with him on her initiative."By the way, Mister Yacob, did he offend you too? This is quite a c
