"Don't even think about it! Do whatever you want to me. I can't call myself a man if I budge!" He said.After all that Ruth did for him, he considered if he should give her the other half of the Mysterious Maiden Method, but was worried that she would tell George and the Collins about it, which might lead him, Iris and Louisa into danger.In order to secure their safety, he ultimately decided not to give the other half of the Mysterious Maiden Method to Ruth.Since Ruth did not reach the Overlord State, half of the Mysterious Maiden Method would be enough to help with her training.Once he became more powerful and was capable of protecting himself, he would reconsider if he wanted to give her the other half."Why you! Damn it!" frustrated that he would not budge, she said, "fine. If you won't give it to me, I'll look for it myself!"She stood up and walked over to the hanging rack to grab Leon's jacket.She took the time to go through Leon's room in the afternoon the day before
Most importantly, if Ruth took the Dragon Pill and found out about what it was for, it would expose his secret and he had to prevent it from happening."Poisonous? As if! Judging from how nervous you are, this has to be something good! Don't try to scare me!" She retorted."Why you! Fine. Take one, then! The purple pills are made with crushed scorpions, centipedes and the gall bladders of snakes. One pill will get you to the Advanced Supreme State!" He said calmly."What?!" She gasped in fear.Women usually feared insects and snakes, and she was instantly disgusted by the pills once she learnt the ingredients."If you don't believe me, you can take one! I assure you that it'll work right away!" He continued to encourage her."Like I'm going to believe you!" She snorted and put the Dragon Pills back hastily.The more reluctant Leon was in letting her take the pills, the more she wanted to take them; and since Leon seemed to be trying to get her to take them, she decided against i
The Mysterious Maiden Method was an Absolute Method that was compatible with the woman's body; since Ruth was a genius in martial arts to begin with, her progress was improved instantly with the help of the premium Energy Nurturing Pill.After allowing the energy to circulate within her, her power was immediately reinforced and strengthened."I won't bother to fight a woman over a premium Energy Nurturing Pill. It's nothing," Leon muttered to himself, feeling frustrated that he lost a premium Energy Nurturing Pill all of a sudden."What a powerful pill!" Sensing the power of the premium Energy Nurturing Pill, she was stunned and turned to gape at Leon. "You're a sly man, Leon Wolf. You kept the best Energy Nurturing Pills for yourself and sold the first-grade Energy Nurturing Pills instead!""Isn't that normal? What's so weird about keeping the best for myself?" He rolled his eyes and stared at her like she was the stupidest person he ever met."Well," Ruth was instantly rendered
"You're not too bad after all!" Leon sighed a breath of relief, only to tense again when Ruth picked up the flask containing the Pure Energy Pills."The Pure Energy Pills? Those work like wonders!" Her eyes lit up when she saw the pills.She knew how rare they were because it cost her grandfather a small fortune to obtain one.Surprised by the discovery that Leon was in possession of multiple Pure Energy Pills, she felt as though she won the lottery.Leon's heart sank at the grin on her face.He saved ten Pure Energy Pills to himself and since he gave three to Vincent, he thought that he only had seven left. It was not until later on that he remembered he traded the Sharp siblings with two Pure Energy Pills in exchange for the Fairy Fruit.He no longer had enough supply of the pills and the ones he had were reserved for him, Iris and Louisa, not for Ruth."I'm warning you, Ruth. The making of the Pure Energy Pills is extremely difficult and I only have five pills left. If you da
The true energy in her energy core began to react and surged. Feeling that she was close to a breakthrough, she said, "Leon, I'm going to focus on my energy now! Don't disturb me!"Ruth was overjoyed as she did not expect to reach the next power level simply after taking one Pure Energy Pill. Not daring to delay, she sat on the ground and began to practice the Mysterious Maiden Method in hope to reach the next level."Who exactly is the one disturbing the other?!" Leon gritted out angrily.If Ruth did not barge into his room, he would have been asleep a long time ago and would not be left tossing with rage in his bed.She ignored him and focused on her internal circulation, as she pushed the boundaries of her power with the help of the Pure Energy Pill."What's wrong with her? Is she really reaching a breakthrough?" Shocked, Leon stopped arguing with her and observed her carefully. Soon, he noticed that her true energy was raging, which was a sign of a breakthrough."That's not r
His view on Ruth completely changed at that very moment."You're at a much higher level than I am and you have the nerves to question if I'm human? You're the monster who defeated a Semi-Overlord like Jackson Lowe! You're the one who's not human!" She poked her tongue out at him."I-" Leon was instantly rendered speechless.He only managed to defeat Jackson because of the Dragon Pill. In truth, he was only at the Intermediate Supreme State and Ruth, who just reached the Advanced Supreme State, already became stronger than he was.Leon soon realized that even when he recovered from his injuries, he would not be able to win against Ruth and he had no means to avenge what she did to him today."It's all over," His heart sank as he slumped into the depth of self-doubt and devastation.He wanted to teach Ruth a lesson for robbing him, yet his hope shattered completely."You're in possession of so many great things! What a shame!" She looked at the Pure Energy Pills regretfully.She
"Whatever! I don't have time to argue with an exhibitionist!" She threw the blanket away and moved Leon's body to begin searching underneath his body and around the bed. Still, she did not manage to find anything."That's enough, Ruth!" He roared, coming close to the edge of losing his temper.However, before he had the chance to do so, he was stunned by what Ruth said next."Leon, remove your pants!" She said hesitantly."What?!" Leon felt as though he was struck by lightning. "Have you gone mad? You're a woman and you are asking a man to remove his pants? Don't you have any shame?" He studied her in disbelief."I don't care. You've to be hiding it inside your pants. Remove them so I can check them," Feeling like her cheeks were burning, she avoided his eyes.She knew that it was a horrible thing to ask, but since she went through Leon's room and bed and did not manage to find the written record of the Mysterious Maiden Method, his trousers were the only place left for Leon to h
"Baam!"Their heads instantly collided and Leon saw stars at the impact.Before he could react, a warm sensation came from his cheek as Ruth pressed her lips against his cheek."What the-"Both Leon and Ruth froze in shock."Damn it! Leon, you bastard! That was my first kiss!" Ruth sobered. Furious, she bit down onto his shoulder.Leon gasped in pain and pinched at the Vital Gate on Ruth's wrist, causing her to fall back onto his chest helplessly.They glared at one another in silence and time seemed to have frozen over."Ahem!" Just then, they heard a sound.Gilbert, Iris and Louisa somehow walked inside.In their perspective, all they saw was Lean lying in bed half-naked while Ruth leaned against his chest.Iris's expression instantly darkened and a dark look appeared on Gilbert’s face as well, so Louisa immediately cleared her through to alert Leon.Leon looked up at the sound of Louisa clearing her throat and met Iris's cold eyes. "Louisa, Iris!"Feeling like he was st
