"Don't ever claim to be my student out there! I wish you all the best."

With that, Lennon waved his hand.

Everybody opened their mouths as if they had something to say, but nobody dared to speak when they saw his closed eyes. They silently left the room.

"Grandpa, they're gone." Adam said softly next to Lennon’s bed, closing the door.

Lennon nodded a little, and opened his eyes again.

"Frederick, the only worry I have has to do with this child."

Lennon picked up Adam's hand, and spoke to Frederick.

Adam was already over thirty.

"Grandpa, I have a family and a career. Why are you still worried about me?"

Adam's eyes filled with tears when he heard what Lennon said. He forced a smile upon his face.

"A family and a career? You only managed to land a job in the Traditional Medicine Association because they respect me. Once I'm gone, who will still care?"

Lennon glared at Adam, and scolded him without mercy.

"All my life, I've always been impartial. In the end, I still can't he

    "Alright, you can see me off here. We'll meet again tomorrow," Frederick said with a smile after Adam walked him to the entrance.The Savant Arts Tournament held by Medisphere Pharmaceuticals was taking place the day after tomorrow. Frederick had already booked a flight for himself and Adam to return to Mirage City tomorrow."Take care and stay safe, Mr. Lester. See you tomorrow."Lennon initially wanted Frederick to spend the night there, but Frederick turned him down by saying he had other things to deal with.Frederick waved at Adam, and walked into an alley.After making a turn into a dark alley, Frederick's gaze turned dull. He looked down a little."Come out," he said casually.A dark figure appeared out of the shadows. "When did you notice me?"The figure was short, and had a weird accent."I noticed you ever since I arrived at the Campbells' residence. Skuira's ninjutsu is like a circus trick to me," Frederick snorted in disdain."How dare you insult Skuira's amazing

    Thomas’s resolve was completely shattered.In Skuira, he was a revered advanced ninja, respected by thousands. Escape Art and Seven Deadly Darts were his proudest skills. Yet, none of it held up before Frederick!Did this mean everything Frederick had said was true?“What is this teleportation ability, exactly?” Thomas stared at Frederick, struggling to speak.“What? Do you thieves still want to steal even at death’s door? But with your inferior genes, I doubt you could steal anything even if we handed you our best secrets. Let me show you something to make you fully understand just how unworthy Skuira Ninjutsu is.”Before Thomas could react, Frederick took a single step and disappeared.Thomas was stunned.This movement felt similar to the Escape Art he had mastered, but despite his profound knowledge of it, he couldn’t even sense where Frederick had gone.“I’m right here.” Frederick’s voice echoed from above.Thomas instinctively looked up, and his eyes widened in shock.

    This was one of the more basic Ninjutsu techniques—Water Escape. However, its potential was immense. To reach Thomas’s level of mastery, where he could cast it instantly at will, would typically take decades of training. In that sense, he could be considered a rare genius; after all, he was only around thirty years old. Still, every technique has its limits. No matter how talented Thomas was, there was only so much he could do with it.Yet, Thomas was still full of pride despite having a narrow outlook.He raced through the sewers, not even aware of where he was headed. Soon, he emerged in a stream flowing along the underground channels. He came out of the water in his human form, and laughed out loud.“Arrogant and foolish Drakonians! Your teleportation ability is nothing special! I barely had to lift a finger to fool you!” he sneered with contempt.He hurried back to Mirage City, as Regina Alderidge was waiting for him to report.Just thinking about that woman sent a shi

    "What is it? Is there anything you couldn't tell me?" Regina narrowed her eyes as her tone turned cold. Thomas trembled, and quickly recounted his entire encounter with Frederick in detail."What did he do after entering the Campbells' estate?" Regina frowned, asking further."I don't know. As soon as he approached the Campbells, I sensed how powerful he was. I was afraid he'd notice me, so I observed from afar, but he still found me," Thomas lowered his head, feeling a bit ashamed."But don’t worry, once Soul Absorption is cast, there's no way to reverse it. That old fart is absolutely beyond saving!" he hurriedly reassured Regina."So, Drakonia has someone this powerful," Regina muttered while being lost in thought. Just then, there was a knock at the door.Regina was surprised. Only a few of her trusted subordinates knew where she stayed, and no one would dare disturb her without her calling for them at this hour."Go and see who it is. Kill them if it's someone you don't

    Frederick’s figure flickered and vanished. He reappeared behind Thomas, and delivered a powerful punch.The punch landed squarely on Thomas, but instead of being hurt, Thomas dissolved into a pile of sand and quickly reformed into his body. Other than looking a little pale, he was completely unharmed.“Annoying little pest,” Frederick snorted, and burst through the roof.Thomas let out a long sigh of relief, and smiled. “Ms. Alderidge, I’ve driven off the enemy!”He looked eagerly at Regina. If she was willing to offer herself to gain Frederick’s loyalty, perhaps she'd reward him for defeating Frederick too, right? The thought made Thomas’s heart burn with excitement.Just then, a wave of intense heat surged through the hole Frederick had made. Both Regina and Thomas’s eyes widened in shock as they looked up. A massive fiery handprint crashed down from above. Boom!The entire ground shook violently.Regina's place was instantly crushed into dust. Before Thomas could

    Bernard Bradbury rushed to the registration desk, roughly shoving Frederick aside. Caught off guard, Frederick stumbled to the side."Register me now!" Bernard slammed his ID onto the table while barking orders.The staff looked displeased by his rudeness, but since they were ordinary people, they could only swallow their frustration.“Didn’t your mother teach you about waiting your turn?” Frederick said coldly.Bernard was taken aback for a moment. He was surprised that someone dared to speak up to him.He whipped around, and glared at Frederick. “All I know is that whoever has the bigger fists makes the rules! You got a problem with that?”“You pushed me and cut in line, so yes, I do have a problem,” Frederick replied calmly.“Suck it up if you’ve got a problem! Or do you want me to smash your head and see what your brains taste like?” Bernard boasted; he raised his fist, which was the size of a sandbag.“Hey! No fighting outside the arena! Anyone who dares throw a punch wi

    Frederick was assigned to Group Seven. The other contestants were already gathered when he arrived. A few individuals stood out, basking in the flattery of the others. These must be the top seeds of the group.Given the dangers of a free-for-all, it was no surprise that some contestants wanted to curry favor with these stronger participants, hoping that they wouldn’t be targeted too harshly.Frederick raised an eyebrow.Bernard, the man who had shoved him at the entrance, was among those being fawned over.He noticed Frederick, and immediately grinned menacingly. He pushed aside the contestants in his way, and strode toward Frederick.“You little punk! You’re finally in my hands!” Bernard cracked his knuckles loudly. He had been a bully his entire life, and no one had ever dared talk back to him. The fact that Frederick had dared to do so sealed his fate in Bernard’s mind.“Mr. Bradbury, you’ve got a problem with this scrawny guy? There’s no need for you to dirty your hands

    After six rounds of brutal fighting, only ten people were still able to walk off the stage alive. Among them, two had lost their limbs, and two had their energy core destroyed.600 cultivators—each of whom could be considered an expert fighter, or even a Savant Grandmaster in today’s world. In times of war, the power of these 600 cultivators would easily surpass 60 thousand soldiers.Yet here they were, slaughtering each other for the few precious treasures offered by Skuira.“Group Seven, please step onto the stage.”Regina’s eyes were locked on Frederick as a smile played on her lips. Frederick took a deep breath, and walked toward the stage solemnly.By now, the tension between Frederick and Bernard had spread throughout the arena, and the remaining contestants were all aware of the situation.As Frederick stepped forward, many onlookers began to murmur and exchange curious glances.“So that’s the guy who dared to talk back to Mr. Bradbury?”“He’s brave, but definitely d

    Heston was still scoffing when he received a call from Giovanni.He was taken aback, and he nervously glanced at Frederick.

They now aimed to dismantle the entire Radicals faction. Though the Radicals had already compromised in the Woody affair, they were taken aback by the Conservatives' greed and refused to back down any further.A fierce conflict broke out between the two sides, quickly escalating into open warfare. The entire Imperial Capital was placed under lockdown, with martial law in effect. Gunfire and smoke filled the air as both sides clashed, and the violence soon spread across Drakonia. Armies from all regions were mobilized, and a war was about to erupt. At this critical moment, the First Elder woke up.Years ago, after deposing the Dark Monarch of

    Senspiras, located in the southeast of Drakonia, was also a neighboring country of Drakonia. It also has the largest population of overseas Drakonians. Many of the wealthy families in Senspiras migrated from Drakonia within the past century or two. The current richest man in Senspiras was one such example."Is Mr. Stone your father?" Frederick raised an eyebrow and asked."Looks like you've got some sense! Name your price!" Heston smirked, and pulled out a checkbook.Frederick's expression darkened."Your dad's assets are not even enough to wipe my shoes. Who do you think you are, pretending to be a big shot? Get lost!"Frederick quickly realized that Heston was just a spoiled brat who would throw money around bullying people. Since he wasn't much of a real threat, Frederick wasn't bothered by dealing with him. Upon hearing Frederick's words, Heston was stunned. "Are you out of your mind? My dad is the richest man in Senspiras! How dare you belittle him?" “So what? Your enti

    Sylvia had so many questions. She wanted to know what Frederick had been doing to provoke such dangerous enemies. She wanted to know if Frederick had really killed a hundred people. She wanted to understand how her son had gained such abilities. And most of all, she wondered if Frederick had been living this kind of disturbing life all these years."Mom, we'll talk about it when we get home," Frederick said, gently lifting Sylvia and leaving the company.On the way, Frederick lightly tapped on Sylvia's head, and she quickly fell unconscious. He had used a special method to erase part of her memory.When they arrived home, Sylvia slowly woke up."Fred! Why are you suddenly home?" Sylvia exclaimed in surprise when she saw Frederick."I'm about to go on a long trip, so I came to visit. Why are you sleeping on the couch instead of in your room?" Frederick smiled.Sylvia sat up from the couch, feeling a bit stiff and sore."I was talking to your sister on the phone. How did I

    "Yes, it was me. If no one managed to escape, the entire Steinfields family—except for children under sixteen and elders over seventy—should be dead by now," Frederick said with a smirk.If he didn't deter the Steinfields with a show of force, others might try the same methods against him in the future.Hearing this, Kaizer's face went blank and terror filled his eyes. At that moment, Frederick's phone rang. It was Melanie calling. Frederick answered, and put the call on speaker. "How did it go? Tell me, so Kaizer here can hear," Frederick said."There were a hundred and seventy-three Steinfields. Fifty-two were children and elders. The remaining hundred have all been executed!" Melanie reported. Kaizer spat out a mouthful of blood in shock. "No way! We're the Steinfields! The Steinfields of Imperial Capital! How could this happen?"In a panic, Kaizer fumbled with his phone, trying to call his family. However, every call he made went unanswered."You'll find out for sure onc

    "Let her go!"A sharp voice rang out.Kaizer instinctively turned around, and he was stunned by Nella's beauty. He couldn't believe someone like her existed."Nella, why did you come down?" Jasmine called out, her eyes widened in panic. She had specifically told them not to come down.Nella trembled in fear. "Ms. Smith, we were worried about you!"Though she was terrified, she still stepped forward. She couldn't just stand by and watch Jasmine get assaulted."Well, well, Frederick sure is lucky with women. But now, they're all mine. Who would've thought that I'd be blessed with a feast before leaving Drakonia!" Kaizer was practically drooling.He let go of Jasmine, and rushed toward Nella eagerly. Nella backed away step by step, but soon found herself cornered."Haha, come to me!" Kaizer spread his arms wide, lunging toward Nella.Just as he was about to grab her, a thunderous crash shook the room. The outer wall of the building crumbled down.Frederick had burst through it a

    Meanwhile, Frederick had just gotten off the plane. As soon as he turned on his phone, he saw a long list of missed calls from Selene.He immediately felt uneasy. Selene would never call him so many times unless something urgent had happened.He was about to call her back when his phone rang again.Frederick answered Selene's call quickly, but before he could ask anything, Selene's tearful voice came through."Fred, Mom's been kidnapped!"Frederick's face darkened instantly, and his killing aura surged."Alright. Don't worry, Mom will be fine."With that, Frederick hung up the phone; he then immediately called Melanie, who was still in the Imperial Capital, lazily lounging in bed."Do you have any intelligence on the Steinfields in the Imperial Capital?" Frederick asked through gritted teeth.He didn't need much thought to figure out who was behind this. There was hardly anyone left in Mirage City bold enough to cross him, except for Kaizer. And now, Sylvia had been kidnapped

    When the elevator doors opened, Jasmine stepped out into the lobby.Kaizer's eyes lit up as he eyed her from head to toe. Though he had seen pictures of her before, she was more of an eye candy in person. Kaizer, holding his rifle, approached her. "Ms. Smith, you certainly kept me waiting!""What do you want with me?" Jasmine asked coldly. She knew that showing fear or vulnerability would only embolden these lawless men."Ms. Smith, why don't you take a guess?" Kaizer reached for Jasmine and lifted her chin with the barrel of his gun, forcing her to look at him.Jasmine met his gaze without a hint of fear."Is it money you want? The company has ten million in cash reserves. You can take it, and I guarantee I won't call the police. We can pretend nothing ever happened as long as no one is hurt. As for the funds in the company’s accounts, you wouldn’t be able to take it even if I transfer the money to you with today’s financial systems," Jasmine spoke calmly."Ms. Smith, you're q

    Bang!With a loud crash, the door was violently kicked open. Kaizer and his men stormed into Frederick’s place.Sylvia was startled, and she shouted, "What do you guys want?" "We're here to kidnap you!" Kaizer strode toward Sylvia. Then, he snatched away her phone and crushed it."Tie her up and take her away!" Kaizer and his men acted quickly. Selene, on the other end of the video call, was shocked by the strangers. Fortunately, she was still on alert. She quickly tried to call Frederick while shaking with fear. However, Frederick’s phone was off since he was on a flight."How’s everything going on your end?" Kaizer asked his men over the phone."We’ve rigged all four walls of Aerowind Enterprise with high-powered explosives. Once we detonate them, the whole building will turn to ashes," his subordinate reported.A smile finally appeared on Kaizer’s face. "Good, I’m heading over now." Soon, Kaizer arrived at Aerowind Enterprise with a backpack."I want to see Ms. Sm

    Upon hearing Frederick’s words, Woody stumbled. "Take him away!" one of the senior officials from the Supervision Department ordered.The respected elder of the Drakonia Royal Court, Woody, was escorted away along with the evidence and witnesses."After today, the Lamberts will cease to exist, and you're finally free." Frederick sighed in relief, and smiled at Easton.Easton looked slightly lost. He wasn’t sure what to do next with his sudden freedom. "What's wrong? Struggling to find a new purpose in life?" Frederick teased.Easton nodded, and replied, "Yeah, my ambitions have been completely worn down these three years. I feel a bit aimless.""Should I find you a job?" Frederick suggested casually."It’s best if I could work for you, Mr. Lester!" Easton’s eyes lit up with excitement."I have a pharmaceutical company under me. If you're interested, you could take the position of Chief of Biomedical Engineering," Frederick said jokingly. To his surprise, Easton was genuinely
