The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 432
"Felix, you really do everything quietly. I already know about the situation at the orphanage. I didn't dare tell Sherlyn. She would definitely have cried her heart out," Ernest said. He patted Felix on the shoulder."Now that I see you're as healthy as they say, even if you've lost your martial skills, I'm finally a bit relieved. You won't blame me for not calling, will you?"Felix chuckled. "Listen to you, sir. It's not that big a deal. Keeping it from Sherlyn was a wise choice."Experienced, Ernest quickly understood what Felix meant.When the dishes were served, Jairo also joined them at the table. The four shared a cheerful meal."Ahem! Grandpa, did you forget something?" Halfway through the conversation, Sherlyn interrupted Ernest with a playful look. He quickly changed the topic. "Felix, tomorrow is my birthday. You must come to the party."A birthday for someone Ernest's age was certainly worth celebrating."I wouldn't miss it for the world! I'll definitely be there!

The next moment, a voice from outside reached everyone's ears. "Mr. Holt Senior, I apologize for the abrupt visit. It's Silas."Ernest glanced at Jairo."Aren't you familiar with Silas? Why all that fuss?"Jairo smiled wryly. He just wanted to be certain. He muttered as he headed for the door, "Silas always has to make an entrance, doesn't he?"Realizing it was a false alarm, Felix left the table. Despite everything, Silas was a senior who had even saved him once, so proper etiquette was necessary.It was normal for someone of Ernest's status to know Silas.When Silas entered and saw Felix, a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes visible beneath his mask."How would you have time to visit an old man like me? Have you eaten? Come and join us."Only after Ernest spoke did Silas reply, saying, "I've already eaten. I came to discuss something with you, Mr. Holt Senior. Is it a good time?""Let's go."The two went upstairs, and Sherlyn called Felix back to continue eating.About t

Ernest couldn't say more at this point. Felix had to make the decision himself."Alright! Silas, I promise you that I will not contact Zara and won't speak to her even if we meet."Silas seemed visibly relieved, and he stood up. "Thank you. I hope you remember what you said today. Mr. Holt Senior is also a witness."Felix's mind was flooded with questions, but he knew that even if he asked, he wouldn't get any answers.But no matter what, he still owed Zara another favor. If she ever asked for anything, he would certainly repay her, and that wouldn't mean violating his promise to Silas.…While Felix was at Yardley Dining refining the Dragonspine, a major event occurred in Yartford. The upper echelons of society had received a piece of news.Ryan, one of the top suitors of Nala, unexpectedly withdrew from the competition.He had worked hard to be acknowledged by the other suitors, even boldly declaring that he would never give up as long as Nala remained unmarried. Who would ha

Yvonne, who had followed them in, was just as baffled. Normally, Nala wouldn't care about such matters. Whether there were new suitors or someone chose to withdraw from the competition, it was all insignificant to her.But this time, she had come in person to question it, which was surprising.Ryan was equally shocked. Nala's actions seemed beneath her stature, as if implying that he, a mere suitor, were important to her."Why are you interested in knowing my reason?" he asked.George looked on with curiosity. This was unprecedented."Why? Is it wrong to be interested? Just tell me if you're willing to," Nala replied.Frowning slightly, Ryan spoke up, "There's no real reason. I'm tired, and there are plenty of people better than me. My odds were always low, so stepping aside is only natural."He didn't dare mention Felix's identity as the student of the revered medical doctor. Only a fool would miss out on that kind of detail.From the gleam in Nala's eyes, it was clear that sh

In Canraville, after four hours of refining the Dragonspine, Felix drove his Range Rover away. After only a short distance, he was blocked by a Rolls-Royce Cullinan.Two people stepped out of the car. One was Aimee, Xena's cousin, and the other was an unfamiliar but handsome young man."Felix, get out!"Aimee gestured for him to step out. Seeing that Felix was ignoring her, she walked over and knocked on the window.Knowing that Aimee wouldn't give up, Felix rolled down the window. "Are you done yet?"Aimee glanced at Felix coldly. "Felix, are you a man or not? Do your words mean nothing? You said you have nothing to do with my cousin anymore, so why did you meet her again?"Felix found it amusing. Aimee was so full of herself that she dared to interfere with the goddess of war's business."That was the last we would meet."At this moment, the young man next to her spoke up, "My name is Finnley Walsh, eldest son of the Walsh family, which is one of Aleshire's most prominent fam

Wendy felt a warm happiness in her heart. Were she and Felix a perfect match? Even outsiders seemed to notice that.But when she saw the darkened expression on the young man's face, she realized the gravity of the situation."He's not my boyfriend. If he needs anything, he'll come and look himself.""Understood, Ms. Kinsley."The young man stepped closer, looking displeased. "Boyfriend? Wendy, do you think I, Dylan Fraser, am someone to be toyed with?"Wendy frowned."Dylan, I don't know how I've offended you. Even if I do have a boyfriend, what does that have to do with you?""What?"Taking a deep breath, Dylan sneered. "Fine. It has nothing to do with me, right? From now on, business between our families is over. That's the price for lying to me."Truth be told, Dylan was quite impressive in many ways and would have been a suitable match if he was not such a playboy. He was known for being a womanizer, and he didn't bother to hide it at all.Rumor had it that he was seeing

Jack glanced at Felix with a smirk and teased jokingly, "What else can I do? You made my relationship with the general manager hit rock bottom. I might have to run away now."Vanessa was speechless. She knew Felix was extraordinary, and only Jack would dare speak to him this way."Don't forget Maddy's engagement party the day after tomorrow. She asked me to remind you.""I promised her, so I'll definitely be there."Refining the Dragonspine was a top priority, but attending an event in Yartford wouldn't be a problem, either. If he went late at 4:00 am, began the training, and returned the next day, nothing would be delayed.After going to the restroom, Felix came back to find Jack suddenly pulling Vanessa to her feet."Sorry, Felix. We've got to go. Something came up."Felix was puzzled. "Do you need my help?"They had planned to have drinks, so them leaving abruptly made Felix concerned."There's nothing you can do. We're leaving!"Vanessa looked helpless and, with her strai

Felix ultimately arrived at the Wolfie troops' base, though he was quite hesitant and didn't even know why himself.He followed Alistair down to an underground room, where Xena was already present. Sonny was confined in a cell, looking haggard and clearly having endured some tough days, though it meant little for someone like him."Sonny, I'm here. You can speak now."Xena felt complicated. She was about to hear the truth. She would finally know whether there was a hidden story or if Felix truly was a coward.Sonny grinned, stood up, and slowly approached the iron bars, looking at Felix. "You're here."Suddenly, his hysterical laughter echoed through the underground space. "You really came. This woman, Xena, must mean a lot to you! But so what? You're here, and I was just toying with you. You tricked me once, so now, we're even."Felix was emotionless. He hadn't expected that Sonny summoned him just for this.Xena shook her head and turned to leave, but Alistair became anxious

"There is a way. That woman told me that if I could find a husband to defeat her brother, she'd give me the antidote. The only condition is that my husband cannot be from our place," Nala explained.Felix understood everything. "Is that why you targeted me? Did you think I could win the antidote for you?"Nala nodded. "Yes. I didn't think much of anyone from this part of town before. But then you appeared and won my heart."Felix studied her carefully. "Here's the deal. I'll ask for your help if I ever need it. In return, I'll defeat her brother as your husband and get you the antidote. After that, we'll be even."Though Nala was excited, she felt her heart clench. "Is that it? Can't we go further in our relationship?"Judging by his gaze, she knew it wasn't because of her appearance."At least for now, it's not possible. I'm going to bed." Felix waved her off.The next day, Nala went to the clinic early. Felix, who slept in until past 9:00 am, was startled to find Averill besid

While looking into those bright eyes, Felix, who intended to brush things off, finally admitted it. "Yes, it's me."Xena waved her hand dismissively, silently telling him to leave.Felix couldn't figure out what was going on in Xena's mind. He didn't know if Willow's letter affected her.For some reason, Felix felt a sense of relief. He had done what he could—the rest didn't matter.By the time he returned to Gray City, night had fallen. Nala greeted him, "Welcome back. Come eat."The timing was perfect, and Felix didn't question it since he was hungry. "Thank you."After finishing his meal, Felix stopped Nala from doing the dishes. "You gave up everything to be with me. Is it truly out of love?"Nala thought for a moment. "Not entirely. At the very least, I do care about you."Nala was being genuine, that was if she ignored Felix's abilities and his overly protective mother.However, Felix shook his head. "You don't even dare to show me your face. You should leave. There's no

"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

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

"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 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
