The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 332
"Your cooking is amazing, Mr. Summers Senior," Felix praised genuinely.Curtis laughed heartily. "Of course it is! That's how I won over my wife back in the day!"While the two men chatted happily, Xena was left to her own thoughts. She had initially felt a strange, inexplicable attraction to Felix, but his attitude during their initial encounter ruined that. After learning about his medical skills, she even made an effort to talk to him. Yet, his attitude remained unchanged, causing her feelings to shift once again. Just then, Xena's phone rang, and she quickly stepped into another room to answer."Lord Hector," she answered respectfully. She knew that even after her promotion to Warlady, she would maintain the same level of deference to her mentor and benefactor. "There's a concert in Canraville in three days. I want you to personally handle the security," Hector instructed. Xena almost could not believe what she heard. It was ridiculous to hear that a mere artist's concert

Telepathy? Felix smirked and kept driving, ignoring the voice. It was amusing that simply having lunch with the Summers family had attracted this kind of attention. As he pondered the matter, he realized that Phantom Poison, which had affected Curtis, was incredibly rare and valuable. After encountering Vilebane, the creator of that poison, Felix knew that ordinary people could not possibly access someone of that power level.In other words, the Summers family had a hidden enemy who was finally showing their hand. After some hesitation, he called Xena, who actually answered. "What do you want?" Her cold tone immediately irritated him.If Curtis had not been such an honorable man who respected their engagement and gave them a month to get to know each other and see if they could make this arrangement work, Felix would not have bothered getting involved."Come to my house. There's someone you need to take into custody," he stated."Are you ordering me around?" Xena snapped."Wha

The woman huffed. "Ha! I was careless this time, but Xena, you won't get anything from me, and your grandfather—he'll die in absolute agony!"Blood spurted from her mouth as she laughed, and within seconds, she was dead.Felix shook his head in disappointment. "For someone about to become a Warlady, you're quite slow. I gave you such clear hints, yet you didn't restrain her—and now she's dead. Don't blame this on me!"Xena was furious, holding back the urge to slap him. "I just got here and knew nothing about the situation! How was I supposed to react that quickly? Since you could subdue her, why didn't you restrain her yourself?" Felix changed his approach, realizing arguing with her was pointless. "She only mentioned working for someone called Madam Spring. That's all I know. You can go now."The name clearly meant something to Xena. She gasped and immediately grabbed the woman's body before rushing out. The next morning, after breakfast, Felix drove with Jack in the passenge

Jack did not know who this "miss" was that Yvonne referred to with such respect, but he focused entirely on the concert mention. "Please thank her for her kindness, but I'll have to decline," Felix responded, puzzled by the invitation.He had not really shown his medical skills during the competition with Guneria, so it was strange that Nala was suddenly so interested in him. Not only had she not been angry when he declined her dinner invitation, but now she was offering concert tickets."I understand. I'll relay your response," Yvonne said before hanging up. Before Jack could speak, another call came in—this time from Sherlyn, whom Felix had not heard from in a while. "Hello, Ms. Holt," Felix answered."Hey! Can't you just call me Sherlyn?" she protested.Felix felt awkward with Jack sitting right there. "Go ahead, Sherlyn. I'm listening." "That's better! You must know about Dreamscape's concert in Canraville, right? Would you like to go with me? You won't say no, will y

"Fine, two tickets it is. I'm easy to please," Jack conceded.After reaching Canraville, Jack was furious to learn that Stellar Group's executives had made a surprise visit to the Avesburgh office. He had to rush back by train, as entertaining the executives that evening was non-negotiable.…At New Glory's luxury real estate office, only a few sales agents were with clients, as such high-end properties naturally drew limited customers. Just as the last clients left, a sharp slap echoed through the office, drawing everyone's attention. "Ms. Martinez, w-why did you hit me?" Michelle Smith asked in disbelief, holding her cheek."Why? You worthless bitch! I lost a villa sale because you offended my clients. Tell me—don't you deserve that slap?" Julia Martinez snapped.Michelle fought back tears as she defended herself, "They tried to get handsy, and I didn't even say anything—I just walked away! How is it my fault if they won't buy?" Julia pointed at Michelle angrily, her eyes

Julia felt justified in her attitude, both from her assumptions and because financial checks were indeed required to purchase at New Glory—it was company policy. Looking at Felix's attire, with no designer labels and not even a luxury watch that any successful person would wear, Julia was convinced he was just a nobody trying to show off. Felix remained calm. "A financial check? Where do we do that?""We can verify it right here," Julia said with a smirk, thinking Felix was just another shameless person. Someone quickly brought over a card reader while the other agents shared Julia's skepticism about Felix's buying power. Only Michelle inexplicably believed in him, though her position made her hesitant to speak up."Sir, please present your bank card and enter your PIN here. The machine won't charge you—it just needs to verify you have at least ten million dollars in available funds. The light will turn green if successful," Aaron Turner explained.Felix nodded and handed

Suddenly, Felix slapped Julia twice and yelled at her, "Listen here! Michelle is my cousin, and you're getting off easy with just two slaps. Now get out of her!"No one thought Felix's actions were rude. Instead, everyone seemed to find them justified. Even Julia had to back away with an apologetic smile—such was the difference in their social standing.After reaching the VIP reception room, the manager quietly excused himself while Michelle remained extremely nervous."I'm sorry about earlier. I just can't stand seeing injustice, and I was only planning to buy a villa when I saw you being bullied. That's why I stepped in, and I hope you don't mind that I called you my cousin," Felix explained.Michelle finally relaxed at his explanation, as his words put her previous concerns at ease."Thank you, Mr. Zeller. There aren't many people like you these days," she said gratefully."Please, call me Felix. Let's go check out the villas. If I find one I like, I'll buy it immediately. I p

The others looked at Felix with similar contempt, clearly disapproving of Jack and Vanessa's relationship. The Dreamscape concert was the hot topic of the moment, making it the perfect tool for their mockery. Moreover, these were Section A tickets—something even many wealthy people could not get their hands on, let alone what they considered a country bumpkin from Avesburgh like Jack.A strange glint flashed in Felix's eyes, but before he could speak, the woman who had greeted him intervened. She scolded, "Robert! Nessa's already talked about this, and you know her temper! Can't you tone it down?" The woman then tugged at Felix's sleeve and added, "Don't mind him—he just likes to joke around. Please, have a seat."Robert Sharkey tucked the tickets away, and his expression softened slightly. "I'm just trying to be nice here, not insult you. Our circle isn't something ordinary people can just join, and Nessa has other admirers. You'll be in trouble once your name gets out there."

"Have you forgotten what I always taught you? The Greene family never fights a battle without certainty. Send an expert to test Felix's abilities first—just testing, mind you, nothing lethal," Meredith instructed.Aiden nodded in understanding. "Yes, Grandma."…At Xena's residence in Yartford, Felix sat silently on the couch until Xena broke the silence. She said, "About your earlier situation, you don't need to worry for now. "While you're on assignment, headquarters will protect your family members, and since you have no acknowledged relatives, this protection extends to your friends."Felix looked up with interest. "Is that really possible?"Xena nodded. "Yes, I've authorized it personally. No matter how powerful they are, the Greene family wouldn't dare openly defy headquarters. "You can rest assured about that. However, how you resolve your conflict with them after the mission is your own business."How to resolve it? Through elimination, of course! Now that his anger h
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 819
Aiden made a subtle hand gesture behind his back. He and Meredith knew that someone like Felix, who would not even acknowledge his own father, would never respect the Greene family's authority.They had not really brought him here to treat Meredith's condition—their true intention was to eliminate Felix. The Greene family had always been ruthless—if someone could not be controlled, what was the point of letting them live? This was especially true since Felix carried Greene blood but refused to serve the family's interests.However, Felix's Dragon Knight status complicated matters. Since it was an official position appointed by headquarters, killing such a person would mean directly opposing the organization—something even the Greene family could not afford."What do you think you're doing, Felix?" Aiden asked with a barely concealed smirk. He had deliberately used Felix's friends to provoke him into attacking first, which would give the Greene family legitimate grounds for retal

No one showed Felix where to go, with only Asher standing beside him as they waited for Aiden to return."Felix, don't be so stubborn. You can't fight the inevitable! You should be grateful that Grandma is willing to let you return to the Greene family," Asher urged, but Felix remained silent."If it weren't for Uncle Victor, do you think I'd be this patient with you? Today is your best chance—if you cure Grandma, you'll prove your worth, and no one will oppose your return to the family."When Felix continued ignoring him, Asher finally became quiet. Ten minutes later, Aiden appeared, pushing a wheelchair, followed by over a dozen impressive-looking individuals.Felix studied the elderly woman in the wheelchair. Despite her silver hair, her skin showed remarkably few wrinkles—a testament to decades of careful maintenance. "Grandma, this is Felix Zeller," Aiden announced.Meredith Armstrong, the Greene family matriarch, did not even bother to flash a smile. She said coldly, "Vict
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 817
Felix could not understand why these two had shown up again, especially since his dealings at the Obsidian Auction with the Dragonspine should have left no traces."I won't say it twice," Asher warned, but Aiden ignored him and turned to the woman instead."What seems to be the problem?" Aiden asked, his demeanor commanding respect.Intimidated by Aiden's imposing presence, the woman reluctantly answered, "I have a terrible headache."Aiden snapped his fingers, and his men immediately placed stacks of cash on the table. "Here's 100 thousand dollars. It's all yours—how's your headache now?"The woman excitedly clutched the money to her chest, backing toward the door with a broad smile. "It's gone! The pain is completely gone! Thank you so much!" In the inner room, Melissa felt furious even without seeing what happened. She would have stormed out to confront them if Nala had not held her back."Felix, isn't my way of treating patients faster and more effective than yours?" Aiden
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 816
"We still can't confirm if he's really from the Bronze Age over 2000 years ago," Felix mumbled thoughtfully.Everyone studied Benjamin carefully, finding it hard to believe. Yet, considering that his body had been used for ancient alchemical experiments by the greatest mystics of the time, it was not entirely impossible."I'm sure I'll have a way to verify it once we're back in Dragonia," Felix added confidently.At dawn, Felix and Nala were set to return home while Selmer stayed behind. The plan was for Reagan to gather the Steele family that night, eliminate them all, and then return. They were not worried about the Elders' Council for now, as Felix's betrayal would not be discovered anytime soon."Thank you for everything," Felix said on the private jet, still feeling guilty about the night's events. "Don't mention it. I've already decided to pursue you, so helping you is only natural," Nala replied simply.Felix frowned at her words. "A relationship between us is impossible.
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 815
The name Benjamin Stone was entirely unfamiliar to Felix, but he was beginning to piece together the situation. In ancient times, emperors were often called the Sons of the Dragon, and their presence was described as "dragon energy".Felix, with his unique possession of the Dragonspine, could very well radiate such a presence. Was it possible that this man knelt and called him "my liege" because he sensed the dragon energy emanating from the pen?"Stand and speak!" Felix commanded.The strange man obeyed immediately, rising to his feet. His tangled hair fell away, revealing a face marred by dirt and scars. Beneath his grimy exterior, Felix saw the features of a middle-aged man, his eyes cloudy but occasionally flashing with a murderous intensity. It was clear this man had seen countless battles, his energy thick with the bloodlust that only came from waging war—and winning it. Such a presence was impossible to fake. Nala and the others edged closer, curiosity etched across their f

"He treats the brush like a sacred relic, which means he absolutely won't allow anyone else to claim it," Felix said, his voice firm.With that, he grabbed the brush in his hand. Instantly, a roar erupted from far away, followed by Alfie's alarmed shout."Damn it! The creature's turning back!"Selmer instinctively wanted to flee, but seeing Felix remain motionless, he did not dare move either. Disobeying his master in such a moment would be nothing short of betrayal."Step back," Felix said, his tone steely. "At this point, I have no choice but to take a gamble!"As the creature rushed back toward them, Felix's suspicions seemed increasingly accurate. If they did not solve this now, Nala would not be the only one dead. In fact, everyone who had come into contact with the brush—himself included—would eventually be hunted down.If this also involved its presence, that might mean Luna and the others were not safe, either."Mr. Zeller, just… be careful!" Selmer shouted, his voice he
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 813
With that roar, Felix finally understood that the monster's target was Nala. He knew he could survive if he abandoned her right now, but how could he do that when she only came to Astoria because of him?As the distance between them and the creature grew shorter, Nala shouted desperately, "Let me go, or we'll both die!"Being only at Pulse Realm, she would have been caught immediately if she ran alone. It was also why Felix had been carrying her all this time."Shut up!" Felix shouted, his heart racing as he realized they had less than five seconds before the creature would catch up to them.In a split-second decision, Felix roughly pushed Nala forward and turned to face the charging monster. He commanded, "Run!"Nala fled with tears streaming down her face, not daring to look back. She knew Felix was buying her time with his life.The ground shook violently as the surrounding rocks crumbled to dust and trees were ripped from their roots. At that moment, Felix unleashed several p

Nala felt helpless, knowing she had many resources back in Dragonia but none here. Felix held onto the brush, refusing to let Alfie take it. "I'm the strongest here—you'd likely die facing them," he explained.He refused to hand the brush over to Alfie, and the latter's expression tightened. It was not a matter of pride—this was a task that could very well cost him his life."No!" Nala grabbed Felix's arm, unwilling to let the man she had grown to love risk his life. Even Selmer stepped forward, saying, "Sir, let me have a go. My life is yours to risk."Luna suddenly spoke up, "Why don't we just leave the brush somewhere? If they're after it, we don't need to sacrifice anyone."An awkward silence fell as they realized the simple logic of her suggestion.After that, they placed the floating, trembling brush in their previous battleground. Then, Felix, Nala, Alfie, and Selmer hid nearby to observe. About ten minutes later, a massive explosion announced the arrival of a mysteriou
