The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 605
So, the Ruby family ranked first among the Eight Great Martial Families? Felix widened his eyes. He had a bad feeling about this. His power had skyrocketed lately, so he didn't feel too bothered about facing the Craydens or even that guy Aiden. But the Eight Families were different since they were full of martial arts masters. Besides, the Rubies were practically the best among them. He would have to be extremely careful not to leave any traces, or the consequences would be terrible. "Actually, they dropped to second place six months ago. But I said that because they could reclaim the top spot any time," Jeffrey explained."I see." Felix left without further questions after that.…While driving his Range Rover home, he stopped at a red light. That was when a BMW slowly pulled up beside him. Glancing over, he noticed a woman asleep against the window in the back seat. Though he could only see her side profile, he recognized that it was Nancy immediately. Her birthday party

Matty rubbed his hands together as he looked back at Nancy in the car with obvious lust. He said, "Don't worry, guys. I always share. You'll get your turn after I'm done."The designated driver chuckled quietly, clearly unsurprised. He had a feeling this would happen from the moment he spotted Nancy walking toward them outside the karaoke bar. She was breathtaking, and just the thought of indulging in her later made his body tremble with excitement.However, just as Matty opened the car door, a loud bang startled him. The door suddenly slammed shut with force."W-Who the hell are you?" he asked. The group froze, panic creeping across their faces. None of them had noticed when a young man appeared next to the back door of the car. "I'm the one who's going to end you," Felix stated coldly. He had been tailing them all along, hoping the car would head to Nancy's apartment or Shunnington University. Unfortunately, the detour confirmed his worst fears. If he had not followed, Nan

"Polaris!" Felix's voice carried a cold edge as he stared Matty down.Matty tried to look calm, but inside, he was panicking. He could not gauge Felix's abilities or whether he was afraid of guns, so he decided to bluff, hoping to buy time until Louis O'Neill arrived."You've got quite the nerve, name-dropping like that. You trash think you're amazing just because you're to an organization of that nonsense caliber?" Felix sneered.He knew these kinds of people—they loved to use big names to intimidate others. Felix had reservations about Polaris, but at least they operated with some semblance of ethics. The infamous Mourning Village incident proved as much.Despite their involvement, no innocent lives were lost. There was no way a group like that would stoop to trafficking children. "Don't believe me? Fine! If you're so confident, wait here. Once Mr. O'Neill gets here, you'll know whether I'm lying or not," Matty said, his tone gaining a hint of arrogance.Felix tilted his hea

"So, you're the one meddling in other people's business? I was expecting some kind of hotshot," a voice taunted as two figures walked into the courtyard—a young man and an older gentleman.Based on Matty's earlier mention, the younger man was undoubtedly Louis O'Neill.Louis glanced at the four writhing men on the ground. His expression tightened as he assessed their condition. Even a glance was enough to tell they had been subjected to extreme torture. Felix did not bother with greetings, shooting four silver needles into Matty and the others and causing them another wave of excruciating pain. Even Louis's lips twitched involuntarily as he watched. He dared not imagine how horrible the pain was."In every nation, anyone with even a shred of decency knows you never harm children!" Felix's voice was cold yet laced with fury. He continued, "There's a story from abroad about a fugitive in a high-speed car chase. Police were hot on his tail, but he slammed on the brakes when he came

At first, Felix genuinely believed Louis was the final player in this twisted game. However, as events unfolded, he quickly realized otherwise. Louis was too young, and the fact that a seasoned martial artist accompanied him suggested that there was someone higher pulling the strings. "I'll talk! I'll talk!" Louis screamed, his will utterly shattered by the relentless torture. At this point, his rank and martial prowess no longer mattered. No one could endure this kind of pain indefinitely."It was my uncle—Jonathan Larsen! He orchestrated everything. I swear it's the truth—just end it quickly!" Louis cried out, desperation dripping from every word. "Your uncle?" Felix muttered, his voice icy. "And where is he now?""He's at Polaris! My uncle is one of their elders," Louis replied, trembling.Felix froze for a moment, taken aback. So, Matty had not been bluffing after all—Polaris was genuinely involved. Felix had assumed Matty had thrown out the name of a major sect as a scare

No one would have imagined that children were being sent every month into this forest, with the entrance hidden within a small cave.When Felix arrived, he stepped inside, finding scattered animal bones exactly as Louis had described. The cave was not very deep. After walking about 30 feet, he reached a dead end—a solid stone wall.A regular person stumbling into this cave would have turned back by now. However, Felix's sharp eyes caught a small, shadowy corner above him where a concealed camera was quietly pointed in his direction.Perhaps it was his own abandonment as a child, but Felix had always despised traffickers with a burning hatred. Letting something like this slide was never an option. Clenching his fist, he punched the stone wall with immense force, shattering it instantly. Beyond the debris was something unexpected—an elevator. Felix stepped inside, pressing down lightly with his foot. The immense pressure triggered the elevator, sending it plummeting downward at b

After seeing the grim look in Felix's eyes when he heard Xena's name, Aimee broke down and sobbed."I don't know why! Xena just told me to come here!" she cried, but Felix slapped her across the face before she could finish."Trying to use Xena as a scapegoat? Ask yourself—does she seem like that kind of person? Your acting is so pathetic it's laughable," Felix mocked.Aimee clutched her stinging cheek, momentarily stunned, forgetting about the lethal aura radiating from him. She screamed in a mix of anger and disbelief, "How dare you hit me, Felix! Who do you think you are?" It was obvious now that Aimee was not just a bystander but involved in this horror. Felix ignored her. Instead, he turned his attention back to the man, subjecting him to excruciating torture.Aimee, at first furious, quickly lost her composure as she watched. The longer it went on, the more terror-stricken she became until she collapsed onto the floor, trembling. She dreaded the thought of Felix using the s

When Felix emerged from the lab, the entire place was engulfed in flames. Not a single child had survived—not even the one who had been bleeding horribly. Despite his efforts, he could not save any of them.The horrors he had witnessed pushed Felix past his breaking point. In his mind, the entire Polaris leadership had to be complicit in this horror. These people did not deserve to live—every extra day they drew breath was an insult to the children who had suffered and died. Even in the storm of his emotions, Felix stayed focused. He pulled out his phone and called Seven. He said, "Seven, I need intel on every single Polaris higher-ups. And inform Averill."Polaris was not just any organization. Ranked as the fifth most powerful sect in Dragonia, its influence and strength were undeniable, and its remote desert location made it even more impenetrable. Unlike other sects nestled in serene mountains far from civilization, Polaris thrived in the harsh wilderness. According to the se

Rosalyn hesitated briefly before continuing to argue her case. "Of course he's the real deal! Dr. Cane's diagnosis perfectly matched Mr. Zeller's. What more proof do you need? Even Dr. Cane admitted he couldn't treat me. Why don't you believe me?"It was clear that Richard was aware of Reid's actions. This realization left Rosalyn deeply disappointed."Enough! Can't you see your Augustus' car has arrived? Step aside!"Rosalyn nearly burst into tears. She had always felt unappreciated by Richard, but it was blatantly obvious that day.Just because she was a woman and unqualified to inherit the patriarch's position, does that make being doted on by Rowan a crime?Not far away, Reid sneered. "What a fool! Complaining to Dad? Whether Felix is real or fake, no one can treat your illness now that he has left. If you die, Grandfather's affection for you will fade over time."At that moment, a Rolls-Royce pulled up, and Augustus stepped out with Axel. Richard immediately went to greet

Felix's expression darkened as he looked at the three young men, their faces filled with contempt."Is this how the Ruby family treats their guests?"Reid, the so-called fourth brother, spoke again, his tone still arrogant, "How we treat guests in the Ruby family is none of your business. If you've got the skills, prove it and make us step aside willingly instead of running your mouth."Felix sneered and turned to Rosalyn. "Your fourth brother, is it? Either he apologizes to me, or I leave right now. Did he think just any Tom, Dick, or Harry has the right to question me?"Rosalyn panicked. She hadn't expected things to escalate like this. "Mr. Zeller, please wait!"But Felix's remark completely enraged Reid."Hah! Talking big on the Ruby family's turf? You want an apology? Fine! I'll give you a chance. Apologize to me now, or you won't make it out of this house."No elder had stepped in so far, which clearly indicated that these three had been given permission to act as they ple

By the time Ronald snapped out of it, Felix and Nancy were already gone."Damn it! They're like the beauty and the beast. What a waste of my time!"Ronald had completely lost interest in Nancy. He had two principles when it came to women: they either had to have both beauty and a great figure, or if they were slightly lacking, they had to be untouched.Nancy wasn't stunning enough to truly captivate him, but she had kept herself well-guarded. Such a pity.Inside the taxi, Nancy's heart was still racing wildly."Did that work?"Nancy nodded. "Yes. I looked into Ronald's preferences. It should be fine now. I'm sorry for not giving you a heads-up earlier."Felix sighed inwardly. In a situation like this, where the man clearly had the upper hand, Nancy was still apologizing."It's alright. It's fine as long as we avoided trouble this time."There was one thing Nancy didn't say. That kiss had been her first. And to her surprise, she hadn't felt the slightest discomfort—in fact, she

"Not your boyfriend?" Felix was confused.That was until he heard Nancy's voice, barely audible as she murmured, "Husband."Felix blinked. "What's the difference?"Nancy mustered the courage to look up and explain, "If I say boyfriend, it makes him think there's still a chance. But a husband will completely shut him down."Ah, so that was her plan—quite thorough. "Alright."At the domestic arrivals gate of Aleshire Airport, the passing crowd couldn't help but take a second look. Two rows of men in black suits stood in formation. At the front, a young man with slicked-back hair held a large bouquet of roses. He was decently good-looking and was clearly waiting for someone.Some sharp-eyed observers noticed his wristwatch—a Patek Philippe—and, combined with the entourage, it was clear he was someone wealthy. In Dragonia, there was a saying, "The rich in Aleshire were the real rich, while everyone else was just playing pretend"."Isn't that Ronald Sullivan, the second heir of U

"By the way, Rosalyn asked when you'll be coming over." Jeffrey asked."Right now," Felix replied. "My patient comes first. Since I've agreed, there's no reason to delay any further."After all, this concerned the fourth piece of the Dragonspine. He couldn't afford to waste any time.On the surface, it seemed like everything was good to go. However, Felix wasn't so sure if that'd still be the case once he arrived at Ruby Manor. To increase the likelihood of obtaining the Dragonspine, he needed more leverage."Jeffrey, do you have Axel Crayden's contact?""I do."Jeffrey was puzzled. Was there any connection between Axel and the current situation?"Call him and tell him I'll be at Ruby Manor this afternoon. You don't have to tell him anything else.""Alright. I'll take care of that now."After informing Xena, Felix boarded a flight alone. Jeffrey didn't intend to join him. His personal connection with Rosalyn made it awkward for him to go. It would attract unnecessary gossip.

Sitting on the couch was Asher from the Greene family, which explained Felix's harsh words."Whether I die or not has nothing to do with you."Asher stood up, his eyes burning with anger."I don't care. You're the last bloodline left of Uncle Victor. As long as there's even a shred of hope, I won't just watch you throw your life away."Felix made a gesture, signaling Asher to continue, but said nothing."Humph! You have no idea just how terrifying Aiden is. I'll tell you one thing. You must give whatever he wants to him within the set time, or you'll truly die. And it will be a slow, agonizing death."Asher knew Felix well enough to understand that he likely dismissed Aiden's warning, which was why he had come personally to Canraville. He could never repay Victor's kindness, so he should at least try to do it through Felix.Still, Felix remained silent, even opening the door as if to indicate the conversation was over.As Asher stepped toward the door, he paused, leaving one la

Earlier in the day, Felix had sent Xena a message about a newly released comedy movie, suggesting they watch it together in a few days. To his surprise, Xena replied that they could go that very day."Have you solved that case you were working on?" Felix asked.The case involved over a dozen children, and Felix knew how deeply it had affected her. He didn't think she'd be in the mood for a movie otherwise."It's been solved. However, I can't share the details with you.""Solved?" Felix thought to himself, frowning. He had personally dealt with the mastermind behind it, ensuring the case would remain a mystery. How could it possibly have been resolved? Something about this was odd."They've caught someone?" Felix pressed. "Come on. You know I'm not the type to spread things around. Tell me."His curiosity got the better of him, and he couldn't resist probing further, even if it risked annoying her.After a moment of hesitation, Xena finally relented. "Alright. I guess I can tell

Felix's interest was piqued. Truth be told, he didn't know much about his nine fellow apprentices. For instance, Averill had her own assassin organization, and Delilah was none other than the famous singer, Dreamscape."Oh? Really? Then, tell me all about it."Noah opened his mouth as if to speak but suddenly seemed to think better of it. He shook his head vigorously."No, no! I almost walked into a disaster! She's your fellow apprentice, and if you don't know about it, it's probably because she doesn't want you to know. If I blab, and she finds out, I'll be as good as dead," Noah said, fear filling his eyes. "Worse, she won't stop with me—she'll wipe out everyone connected to me. I'm talking everyone. Even the earthworms in my backyard won't escape her blade!"Felix was dumbstruck. Was Eloise really that terrifying?"Fine. If that's the case, I won't force you." He waved dismissively. "I'm just a guy trying to live a normal life. Well, now that I know this, my impression of the

Alfie felt a stinging pain when Nala smacked the back of his head. He froze, utterly dumbfounded."When did I say such nonsense? Do you want me to hit you?" Nala asked.Rubbing the sore spot on his head, Alfie smirked. "It's over," he thought. "Lady Nala is absolutely serious this time."Five minutes later, Noah lay sprawled on the ground, struggling to get up. His body refused to obey, leaving him bruised and battered beyond recognition."Are… Are you really in Aetherial Realm?"He was utterly broken. Since stepping into Oceanus Realm, he had carried immense pride in his abilities. He wouldn't claim invincibility at his rank, but he always had absolute confidence in his strength.Yet, all that confidence had been shattered. If Felix had defeated him with some powerful technique or secret art, he could have accepted it. However, Felix had relied solely on raw physical strength. With no techniques, he had still beaten him to a pulp, leaving him on the verge of death. It was absurd
