“If you want to find out some information, I’ll tell you everything I know. “The Spada Guild is large and powerful in Imperial City. Your accent doesn’t sound local, so it’s normal if you haven’t heard of it. The Spada Guild is one of the five major guilds. Although not ranked at the top, it can rank third or fourth.” Philip was surprised that the short man knew quite a lot. “Wow, I’m surprised to hear that the Spada Guild is so powerful. I thought it was just a trashy place,” Philip said nonchalantly as if he was quite knowledgeable in this matter. Hearing that, the short man’s mood changed for the better, and he felt full of himself. It turned out that Philip treated him so badly earlier because he was simply too ignorant. He had no idea what was going on, so it was reasonable that he was unafraid of this guild. “Since you know everything, you should let me go. My brother is really…” The short man wanted to emphasize his brother's power when he was knocked unconscious wit
Philip stepped forward and reached for it doubtfully. It was quite hot to the touch. “Philip, what’s that? It’s quite scary.” Aslan looked at the scary thing in puzzlement. Philip was baffled by the shiny item on the ground too. Of course, Aslan was not referring to the item's appearance but its vibes. Philip grabbed the shiny little stone amid his confusion. Although it was hot to the touch, Philip made use of his exotic flame and managed to grab it. His exotic flame seemed to have a powerful taming effect, and Philip quickly took control of the stone. “This is weird. I feel like the stone is emitting some unfriendly vibes as if warning others to keep their distance.” Aslan glanced at Philip curiously, feeling baffled. Why would such a terrifying thing appear in this ordinary beast forest? The presence of this small stone was so strong that even Aslan was terrified. “Don’t worry. Let me take a good look at it.” Philip studied the stone but could not figure it out. He
“Could he have found the way to unlock the passage between the two continents and left by himself? What should I do now? I haven’t learned much from him.” Kemp sighed, feeling despondent. He had sent many people to search the land of evil spirits for a long time but found no trace of Dustin. He finally mustered the courage to join the search but to no avail. “Where could he have gone?” Kemp returned home empty-handed and sat down glumly. Meanwhile, Dustin had recovered from more than half of his injuries and sat waiting for Kemp’s rescue. “What’s taking him so long? He’s such a slowpoke!” Dustin scrambled up and looked around in annoyance. He did not dare to escape without his apprentice waiting to receive him. After waiting for a long time, he finally decided to sneak out. Dustin sneaked out of the room and left quietly. He thought that no one discovered his actions, but he was too naïve. Although Declan was very unhappy with his younger brother, he asked Philip to
It was insufficient to rely on the royal family alone. Philip could get a good position with Declan’s help. Dustin’s priority was to find someone to deal with Philip before he had time to build connections. “Since I can't use the power of the royal family, I can go to those guilds. Many guilds have settled in Imperial City anyway.” Dustin made his decision quickly. In his mind, Philip was already a dead man. It was all thanks to the guilds’ help during the beast crisis or the military could never have handled the situation all alone. It proved that the guilds occupied a very important position in Imperial City. Philip had no idea that Dustin was going to look for someone to deal with him. However, he knew that the short man would tell his brother in the Spada Guild about his plight. Philip was not worried about his situation at all. He would take one step at a time. Philip did not care what would happen. He simply wanted to watch the excitement, so the bigger, the bet
Just like Lance, his men were friendly and kind-hearted people. They were generally much older than Lance, but they were outspoken and lacked the arrogance of most officials. The man who was stopped was Jax Lore. “Hey, don’t just stand there. Come over here.” The people from the Spada Guild beckoned to Jax and asked them to go through the check. Jax was not happy about it, but he knew they could not mess with the Spada Guild. “I see, it’s the Spada Guild. How may I help you?” Although Jax was angry, he had no choice but to greet them with a smile. They seemed like internal members, so Jax had to be courteous. Although he was an official, he was not highly valued, so he was inferior to the other party. “Cut the crap and just come over as I ordered,” the member of the Spada Guild snapped. Jax scowled. They went too far. The man in front of him was weaker than him. Showing him courtesy was respectful enough. However, the other party still acted so arrogantly, which humilia
Unexpectedly, someone in Imperial City was bold enough to mess with the Spada Guild. Once, someone from another guild messed with them. The small guild was annihilated overnight, and the members who were lucky enough to escape were hunted down endlessly. It was a common occurrence for a guild to be annihilated because of one member’s private dispute. Soon, several burly practitioners were stopped and brought to the gazebo. Philip happened to be one of them. The Spada Guild did not specifically aim at guild members but all male practitioners. After observing for some time at the gazebo and confirming that there was no problem, they would be released. Philip stood among the crowd and looked at the people of the Spada Guild indifferently. He had figured out by now what these people were doing. The people of the Spada Guild must be looking for him because he messed with that shorty. All this trouble was just for him. “I made an analysis and found that this batch of people
Harris’ interest was piqued. He smiled at Jax expectantly, waiting to hear more about Philip. Jax scowled at his expression. He knew that this person was not easy to deal with. Although Harris had a smile on his face, it did not carry the good intentions of a smile at all. “I don't have much contact with Philip. I only know that he’s pretty strong and has a good character,” Jax said tremblingly. He felt uneasy and wished he could run away. “Pretty strong? And you think he’s a good person too?” Harris said sinisterly, exuding bad vibes. Jax looked at him without a word. He sighed and waited. “It’s not up to a loser like you to decide if he has offended one of us. You can shut up now. It's not your turn to teach me what to do,” Harris snapped, and Jax trembled with fear. Jax wanted to say something else, but he was already petrified, at a loss for what to do. He was full of grievances but could not vent his frustration. The Spada Guild always did whatever they wanted,
Harris stood up and glared at Philip with hostility. Although not obvious, there was a faint murderous intent. He glanced at Jax thoughtfully as if doubting him. Jax felt very upset that Philip had offended someone from the Spada Guild. “Buddy, why did you mess with them? Even I can't protect you now,” Jax lamented. “What do you mean I messed with someone from the Spada Guild? I just stepped on a cockroach by accident. It's not a big deal,” Philip said with a smile. Harris had his agenda for doing this. In his opinion, Philip was simply a loser and not worth his time. He glanced at Jax so that Jax could take Philip in hand.He wanted Philip to experience the feeling of being betrayed by others. If Jax suffered any repercussions because of this, he would blame Philip for everything. Harris was very good at invoking conflicts between two people or two forces. Although Jax knew that Philip was powerful, it would do him no good to mess with the legendary Spada Guild. “
Meanwhile, it was busy at the Hexa Guild. This was the guild Hogster belonged to. The people of the guild were arrogant and never took anyone seriously. Due to limited strength, however, they only bullied weaker guilds and avoided the stronger ones. The powerful guilds were the objects of their pursuit, so they thought the Celestial Palace was in the bag for sure. After all, their young heir was about to marry the Celestial Palace’s young heiress, which would in turn raise the Hexa Guild's status. Thus, they saw themselves as the top guild and felt that they would definitely win the guild competition. The guild leader was jubilant as he waited for the Celestial Palace’s explanation. Since both parties had reached an agreement regarding marriage, the Celestial Palace had breached the contract by letting the young heiress run away, so they had to give the Hexa Guild an explanation. At that time, the Hexa Guild could rip them off by demanding compensation. The guild leader was v
“Hey, you! Go and report this situation to my dad. Tell him to come and save me. I’ll die if he doesn’t hurry!” Hogster kicked the person next to him and told him to seek reinforcements. The others were nervous and did not dare to go out at all. Who knew if someone was keeping an eye on them? What if they encountered a problem after they left? No one wanted to risk their lives for no reason. They were just normal guild members. “I think Neil is the fastest among us. He should go!” “I agree. Neil is very fast. There’ll be no problem with his speed!” “We’ll cover up for him. Neil, make it quick. You have to find someone to save all of us!” Everyone focused their attention on Neil, whose scowl grew bigger by the second. He was shocked by their shamelessness in pushing this job to him. Who knew what would happen if he went out? He would be dead in no time if he bumped into those villains. He gulped at this thought. “I think we should just sit and wait for reinforcements. Thes
More importantly, marriage would make the guilds stronger. Most large guilds would not choose a casual practitioner for marriage. The value of their women had to be stretched to the largest extent. Vanna was no different, but she was lucky to have parents who doted on her, so her occasional wilfulness was overlooked. Vanna would not suffer any repercussions even if she decided on her marriage herself. “That guy is quite powerful. I had to do my best to knock him out. He’s quite talented, but his face looks weird. No wonder he has the confidence to demand marriage.” Rabbit marveled mockingly. After saying that, Rabbit jumped onto Hogster's head provocatively. Hogster and his men had been knocked out, so they could not witness this humiliating scene, but even if they did, they would not have been able to do anything anyway. With Rabbit’s ability, they could only endure it no matter how much they wanted revenge. Their only option was to go back and seek reinforcements or Rabbit wo
Rabbit looked at Hogster’s wounded head smugly. “Oh, I thought you were very strong. So, this is what a member of a strong guild is like. Maybe I thought too highly of you. With that ability, you might as well be a farmer!” Rabbit taunted Hogster. On the other hand, Carlos was shocked. He had heard that this rabbit was very strong, but this was beyond his imagination. Hogster was still in a daze. He clutched his head and glowered at Rabbit. Just as he was about to speak, something big appeared in Rabbit’s hand. He was shocked when he saw the object clearly. It was a huge hammer. It was weird to see a small rabbit holding such a big hammer. Before Hogster could say anything, Rabbit swung the hammer in his face, hitting Hogster so hard that he was dumbfounded. Hogster passed out in shame. Even then, he could not figure out how a rabbit could be so unreasonable and powerful. Suddenly, Carlos became thoughtful, wondering how strong Philip was. Someone who could subdue such a
While Vanna was blaming herself for messing up, she heard a lot of commotion at the door, which attracted her to watch the fun. Unexpectedly, the joke was on her. Vanna recognized the man in front of her due to the irreconcilable conflict between them. Vanna was vexed at the sight of that ugly face. “You’re really persistent, stalking me wherever I go. I’m telling you, I have no interest in you. Stop following me! I’ll never be with you. Besides, I’m married now.” Vanna walked forward and held Ronan’s arm intimately. Hogster scowled at the sight. Vanna was no longer ugly, which proved that he was too late. He was shocked by Vanna’s audacity to be with someone else. It was simply outrageous. “Marriage should be decided by your parents and elders. Both our parents have reached an agreement about our marriage. How could you disobey them? Doing so will only break your parents’ hearts!” Hogster shook his head helplessly. Although Vanna had become someone else's woman, he still wan
Everyone was surprised by the appearance of a talking rabbit, and it was very expressive too. Someone who did not know the situation would think that it was a human! On the way here, they heard some rumors about this rabbit having an amazing storage space. It sounded spectacular, but no one believed it. After all, even people of their status could not get a storage space. How could a mere rabbit own such a legendary treasure? Hence, everyone was surprised to see Rabbit for themselves. “Sir, is that the mysterious and powerful rabbit that was rumored outside? Why don’t we catch it and see if we can find something about it? Even if there’s nothing special about that rabbit, it’s fun to keep a talking rabbit around!” a lapdog said excitedly, clearly very curious about this talking rabbit. “You’re right. Who can refuse a talking rabbit? It’s fun to keep it as entertainment. If I use it to pick up women, I believe more women will fall in love with me!” Hogster was very excited and
Although Carlos was not that concerned about appearance, he was not fond of the idea of Vanna being together with an ugly man either. He wanted Vanna to find bliss too. Hogster was angry at Celeste’s provocation and shocked that someone would turn him down. He had to say that some secular women were ignorant and blind. In his opinion, she ignored him simply because she did not know how powerful he was. Only the women in the guild were smart enough to please him. “Carlos, since I’m here, let’s have a good chat. I plan to take Vanna away!” Hogster looked at Carlos with confidence. Although Carlos was someone he couldn't afford to offend, Hogster had his pride too. As the heir to his guild, his status was noble. Carlos sneered at his arrogance. Hogster expected to take Vanna away with just one remark. He really thought highly of himself. Carlos’ mission was to protect Vanna. He was not concerned about anything else. “Do you think just anyone can take the young heiress of Cel
Ronan frowned when someone kicked the door open. Carlos and his men woke up from their drunken stupor as well and looked around solemnly. In general, practitioners would not get drunk after drinking, but they had not used their energy to neutralize the alcohol earlier. Now that something was happening, they could not remain intoxicated. Everyone stood on guard, wondering what happened. They saw a man kicking the door open. After the man kicked the door open, he appeared in front of everyone smugly. Everyone felt disgusted to see his smug look and was surprised by his ugly appearance. Philip frowned at this person. He was sure that he did not know this guy, but seeing his smug look, he should be the ugly Hogster that everyone was talking about. Carlos had mentioned earlier that Hogster's ugly appearance was so distinct that anyone could recognize him at a glance. He had a very short figure and a ridiculous proportion, like a dwarf with no legs! Philip recognized him at a gla
“What’s wrong with you? Why are you crying?” Hogster picked up the kid angrily. Hogster was never a patient man, so he was even more annoyed by the kid’s defiance. He wanted to teach the kid a lesson for messing with him. “Stop crying. I want to ask you something. If you answer me properly, I’ll leave you alone.” Hogster smacked the kid, leaving him in a daze. The kid had never encountered such a situation before and simply sobbed. “Have you heard anything about an ugly woman? She was supposed to be the bride of the Cohen family, but the marriage was canceled at the last minute.” Hogster glared at the sobbing child in exasperation but he had to ask his questions patiently. After all, the kid looked the easiest to bully among everyone around. The child stopped crying and nodded after hearing him. “Someone took the ugly woman away. They're staying in the small house over there!” He was afraid that Hogster would hit him again, so he blurted everything he knew. The kid always hun
