"Grandpa! Is what he's saying true? How could that be possible?" Sherlyn Holt gasped in disbelief.The old man let out a bitter smile and nodded. "Yes, Sherlyn. Around midnight every night, I've been suffering from severe abdominal pain. I've had my medical team and a few highly regarded doctors examine me privately, but none of them could find the cause. "Since I wasn't experiencing any other issues, I didn't want to worry you, so I kept it from you."After revealing this, his expression grew thoughtful. "I never thought that I would encounter such a young master healer here in Avesburgh at my age. It seems fate is being kind to me."Jairo and Sherlyn were stunned and speechless. How could they believe that Felix, whom they had initially dismissed as a charlatan, was now being hailed as a master healer?"Sherlyn, apologize to him."Taking a deep breath, Sherlyn walked over to Felix and apologized respectfully, "I'm sorry for my rash behavior earlier. Please, forgive me and he

Not long after Felix returned home, the doorbell rang. To his surprise, it was Yvonne, the woman he had met at the cemetery. Felix couldn't help but feel a bit suspicious. Was she following him?Still, he opened the door and stepped outside.Yvonne stood there holding a gift box, her face showing clear surprise when she saw Felix. "Felix? You live here?"Felix nodded. "Yeah. Why do you look so shocked?"Pointing to the villa next door, Yvonne smiled. "What a coincidence! I just moved to Avesburgh and needed a place to stay. A friend recommended Tabiner Bay, and I thought I should introduce myself to the neighbors. I never expected it to be you!"Felix laughed at the unlikely twist. "Well, now that you know it's me, there's no need to bring any gifts."Yvonne's genuine personality was becoming more evident to Felix, and he realized that Phillip's support of her years ago hadn't been shortsighted."Honestly, I'm a bit envious," Yvonne admitted with a playful smile. "You've g

"That bastard, Felix! You invited him to dinner, and he's over 20 minutes late!" Belle complained angrily.Xena, however, remained calm. "It's fine. He has his reasons for being upset. But if he can't even handle this, it only confirms what I've always thought of him—he won't achieve much."After a pause, something seemed to cross her mind. "Have we heard anything from Joe?"Belle shook her head. "No. We haven't been able to reach him. I don't know what's going on with him. He just disappeared without a word. It's strange."Jordan's sudden and unexpected disappearance was weighing on Xena's mind. She knew why he had returned to Avesburgh—he was clearly trying to pursue her again. But for him to vanish just days later didn't add up."Never mind. If we can't contact him, there's no use worrying. He might have his reasons."At that moment, the door to the private room opened, and Felix finally walked in."Felix! Do you even know what time it is? Who shows up this late?" Belle shout

Callum didn't take Wendy's warning seriously at all. "Let it be. It's time you both met some of the connections my father has. Maybe this will help spark some chemistry between Hugo and Wendy," he muttered confidently. He knew very well what gave Wendy her confidence—Felix's connection to Kane. But could Kane really dominate all of Avesburgh? The answer was obviously no.…Meanwhile, night had fallen at Tabiner Bay, and Wendy was sitting on the couch in Felix's villa, her face tense."What brings you here tonight?" Felix asked, genuinely curious. He knew her visit wasn't about the herbs this time."Felix, I'm sorry," she said suddenly.Her unexpected apology made him frown. "What do you mean?"For Wendy to show up personally, Felix knew it had to be something significant."It's about Hugo. I couldn't stop him, and now, he's made his move. I only just found out when my father and I went to talk with his father, Callum. Unfortunately, it didn't help. They seem to be relying on

Earlier, everyone had been at the entrance to welcome the guests.To be honest, Hugo couldn't see anything particularly special about the elderly man. He was sitting in an 80-thousand-dollar Cadillac CT6, accompanied by a middle-aged man and a beautiful woman.Unexpectedly, the elderly man was actually so formidable."I'm not sure about Mr. Holt's status, but he's undoubtedly significant. Dealing with Lord Kane should be a breeze for him. Even your grandpa said that Mr. Holt maintains ties with our family because of your great-aunt."After saying that, Callum suddenly became serious. "Have you developed feelings for that young lady?"Although Hugo didn't respond directly, his eyes spoke volumes."Keep your feelings in check! You're not in a position to touch that woman. The gap between you and her is too vast to bridge. Focus on dealing with Wendy. That plan is critical, and we cannot fail."Was it that serious?Before Hugo could process his thoughts, a Mercedes G-Wagon drove i

Seeing Callum's confidence, Kane shook his head and waved his hand, signaling Stinger and his team to release Hugo and step back."Very well, Callum. I'm curious to see what kind of backup you have to defeat me."Felix had ordered this task, and Kane needed to handle it thoroughly with no loose ends. Any hint of trouble reaching Felix would be seen as a serious dereliction of duty."Ha! You're indeed someone of great stature, Lord Kane. Your action now might help you avoid some blame."At this moment, four people emerged from the house behind them—two elderly men, a middle-aged man, and a beautiful woman."Kane, is it true that you're here to take Hugo?" Once they stopped, Callum's father, Edward Lambert, was the first to speak. His tone carried a certain air of authority."Indeed. He has crossed the wrong people. What problem could there be with me taking him away?"After saying that, Kane shifted his gaze to Ernest, who was standing next to Edward.Despite Ernest's plain appe
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 108
Felix was satisfied with this outcome. Ernest did not immediately drive Kane out because of Hugo."Felix Zeller? How dare you show up?" Hugo sneered upon seeing Felix."The Lord Kane you were so proud of will leave defeated. Do you really think you can turn things around? What a joke!"Before Hugo could continue, Callum slapped him across the face. "Shut up! This is not your place to speak."What a foolish son! With Ernest present, Hugo should be trying to make a good impression as an innocent party. His provocation only served to bring momentary pleasure and greater loss."Sir?" Ernest, recognizing Felix, immediately stepped forward to stand in front of him."Mr. Holt Senior, it's a surprise to see you again so soon," Felix greeted.Following behind, Sherlyn had a surprised expression."Are you the one with a grudge against Hugo?" Ernest, being an elder, could quickly discern the situation.Before Felix could respond, Edward was already anxious. "Do you know him, Mr. Holt Sen
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 109
Upon receiving Felix's assurance, Hugo leaped up. "No, no! Thank you, Mr. Zeller, for this opportunity. Thank you!"Hugo grasped Felix's hand with both of his, showing immense gratitude. When he realized Felix was Ernest's savior, he thought his fate was sealed. To his surprise, the situation took a dramatic turn."Are you happy with this result, Mr. Holt Senior?" Felix asked as he prepared to leave.Ernest's eyes gleamed with a brief flash of insight, and he nodded. "Yes! Perhaps life's destiny is truly preordained."Felix smiled. As expected of someone who had survived the battlefield, Ernest saw through the essence of the handshake.On their way back, Kane couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Zeller, are you really letting Hugo off the hook? Regardless of your Dragon Lord status, you could have done whatever you wanted after saving Mr. Holt Senior's life."Felix shook his head. "No, Kane. You're still too caught up in the underworld mentality and seeing things narrowly."With Mr. Holt

Felix took out a memorial coin and lit it on fire before playing the harmonica again.As the memorial coin began to burn, Helena's expression twisted in pain. "Impossible!"Her body shook uncontrollably. "Stop! Felix, you love me, right? Please, stop! I'm begging you."But there was no way Felix would stop. It was clear that Helena was far more formidable than the man from Seapoint.Finally, as the memorial coin burned to ashes, Helena fell to the ground unconscious. Felix swiftly loaded Helena into the car. After nodding to Wayne and Reagan, he drove off in the opposite direction.The car was headed toward a coastal area that would take about four hours to reach. Luna had arranged a smuggler's boat there, and everything was prepared.When Helena woke up, the first thing she saw was Felix sitting a short distance away, and she felt the unmistakable rocking motion of a boat on the sea. "Where are we?""On a ship bound for Dragonia," Felix replied cautiously.Helena smiled bitter

Elliott covered the microphone and turned to Felix. "There's a problem. Who is the woman you wish to abduct? Mr. Robins just told me that a high-ranking member of the Westerio Order approached one of ours and demanded a woman named Helena be safely escorted into the city once this was over.""What?" Felix's expression fell. If that was true, his plan was ruined. Waiting for another chance could take forever. "Is there no way to resolve this?"Elliott pondered for a moment before his eyes lit up. "Let's put it this way. Mr. Robins has a lot of influence. There won't be a problem if he crosses the senators. You've met him before. He's the one deeply knowledgeable about Dragonia's culture. However..."Elliott trailed off. But Felix caught on—everything came with a price."Tell Mr. Robins he can find me in Dragonia if he needs anything, or I can come to him." Felix sighed.Elliott nodded and relayed the message. Shortly after, he hung up the call. "He agreed. It's mainly because you

Impressed by Jesse's loyalty, Helena teased, "How many Scarlet Cardinals can you gather on such short notice?"Jesse fell silent, realizing the impracticality of the suggestion. The 12-mile perimeter in the desert was too vast. It would require over 20 Scarlet Cardinals for complete coverage, and there were not even that many in all of Guneria.Helene continued confidently, "Don't bother. No one who could overpower me exists yet, so let's not make a big deal of this. Neither Reagan nor that facility would have such a person." She had completely dismissed Felix as just an ordinary person, thanks to his masterful use of the Nightshade Discipline technique borrowed from Darren. With Felix's skill level, using it perfectly masked his martial artist aura, making him seem utterly unremarkable.…As they approached the facility, Felix felt elated when he noticed all traces of the powerful guards had vanished. Elliott was telling the truth—the Westerio Order really would not dare come ne

Was Reagan really coming? Of course, he was—it was all part of Felix's plan since Reagan was now under his control. Felix had maintained this elaborate charade in case his first attempt to capture Helena failed, knowing he might need to try again.He had privately contacted Elliott without revealing the true nature of his mission, only mentioning his desire to take someone from Dragonia. Given Helena's appearance, her citizenship papers were likely forged anyway. Elliott agreed to help immediately, knowing that even foreigners sometimes got sick. Felix's extraordinary medical skills made the decision easy, as he could be their last hope when modern medicine failed. The plan centered around the desert biochemical research facility where Felix had previously been held captive. According to Elliott, this facility was one of Guneria's highest-priority projects, and its perimeter was surrounded by a strict 12-mile no-entry zone. While they did not have extraordinary fighters, they po

"So, how would you like to discuss this? Perhaps like this?" Helena purred as she placed her index finger on Felix's forehead.Felix immediately felt his Dragonspine trembling, responding to whatever trick she was pulling. He struggled internally, unsure how to react to Helena's technique since he needed to fake his response.Deciding to maintain his lustful persona, Felix widened his eyes and feigned an expression of ecstasy while muttering suggestive nonsense. From the corner of his eye, he noticed Helena returning to her seat, clearly satisfied with the effect of her power. She said, "I didn't want to use my abilities on you, but you were too eager. No one tries to seduce someone on their first meeting, though this works out well—now you won't be able to stay away from me."Felix's overeagerness actually matched his supposed identity perfectly. As Reagan's illegitimate son, why would he need to think twice about anything in Astoria? Getting whatever he wanted would be natural f

As the sun began to set, Helena sat in a private room of the Drapetown restaurant, listening to her subordinate's report."Ms. Mooney, we've uncovered his background! Felix is quite something—he's connected to the Starfires in Astoria, supposedly the beloved grandson of one of Kyro's old friends. However, our Westerio Order's investigation suggests there's more—he's likely the Shadowstalker Emperor's illegitimate son."Helena's eyes sparkled with interest as she laughed. "The Shadowstalker Emperor's son? Well, that explains everything. With Reagan's status in Astoria, it makes sense for the Starfires to step in as a cover to avoid scandal." Her subordinate nodded in agreement. "This guy seems to be quite carefree and privileged, and his features suggest mixed heritage—likely between the Shadowstalker Emperor and someone from Dragonia."Apparently, he got bored in Astoria and decided to find the best Dragonian cuisine to franchise worldwide. Money really does allow for such whims.

After finishing his business, Felix decided not to let Louise return home just yet. A True Blood Realm fighter could still be quite useful, especially since Felix was about to embark on a critical mission. It was better to make some extra preparations rather than risk anything going wrong.The next day, around noon, Felix visited a restaurant in Drapetown. After ordering several dishes, he made an unexpected request to the server. "Could I speak with your owner? I'm interested in buying this restaurant—money is not an issue," Felix said.The server responded politely, "I apologize, sir, but our owner has made it clear that the restaurant isn't for sale."As if anticipating this response, Felix gestured toward the packed dining room. "Is that so? Well, all these people are with me. Don't worry, they won't cause trouble, but I can't control how long they'll stay here to dine."It was only 11:00 am, typically a time when the restaurant would have just one or two tables occupied. The

Felix moved with lightning speed, his overwhelming presence leaving the two martial artists unable to even resist. "Enough talking! Submit, or die!" Felix demanded, his tone icy and commanding.Since gaining the loyalty of Selmer, a Blood Realm major mastery warrior, Felix had prioritized subduing his enemies whenever possible. These two True Blood Realm masters presented an opportunity too valuable to waste. "I'll submit!" Louise, the elder working for the Greenes, responded immediately. As a hired hand with no true loyalty to the Greenes, his quick surrender was unsurprising.Felix turned to Skyward Guild's master, slowly raising his right hand. "I am a Guardian of the Skyward Guild, and you expect me to submit? If you dare kill me, the Skyward Guild won't—" Before he could finish, Felix struck him down. After that, he used the Soul Sealing Needle on Louise, successfully adding him to his ranks. Though he now commanded only Selmer and Louise, Felix believed his force woul

The Greenes' involvement was no surprise after their previous confrontation, and, of course, they would not miss this opportunity abroad. Skyward Guild's presence also confirmed Felix's suspicions."Enough talk. I'm not exactly a fan of Guneria either, so let's not waste time," one of the elders said casually."Perfect, I couldn't agree more!" Felix's smile grew brighter as his aura surged, causing both men to look at him with surprise."Gage wasn't wrong at all—this young man has indeed reached True Blood Realm," one master remarked. Though they maintained their composure, they were shocked that someone so young had achieved their level. After all, it had taken them decades of training to reach it. The comparison was enough to make them choke on their frustration. Still, it did not matter much. There were two of them, both in the True Blood Realm, while Felix was alone. Two against one—the odds were solidly in their favor.Felix chuckled, cracking his knuckles. "You two old-ti
