The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 695
Felix's hands trembled while holding his phone—his entire body was overcome with fear. He was so anxious he couldn't bring himself to press the answer button.In the end, it was Karina who stepped in, unable to watch him struggle any longer. She reached over and answered the call, putting it on speaker mode."Mr. Zeller, a chemical plant caught fire. So far, 35 fatalities have been confirmed."Felix felt a whirlwind of emotions. On one hand, it was good news that this wasn't connected to Zara. However, it was bad news that over 30 lives had been consumed by the merciless flames."I understand. I'll transfer some money to you. Please make sure it's distributed to the families of the deceased," Felix said.Not knowing about the incident was one thing. Now that he knew, there was no way he could ignore it. Felix wasn't a saint, but he wasn't heartless either."By the way, Karina, what does Dahlia need me to do?" he asked.Karina handed him a piece of paper. "Donate ten million doll

"Don't worry, I'll contact the police immediately. We'll go together with them, and I'll bring all the necessary documents. No one will doubt us with both of us there," Dorian said.He genuinely admired Felix.As the manager of Concord Bank's branch in Gray City, Dorian had met more wealthy people than he could count. Most of them put on a polished act in public but often had less-than-noble motives behind closed doors. Even charity was usually just a way to reduce taxes or boost their public image. However, Felix was different. He didn't have to do this—especially for a small orphanage with no potential for fame. Yet here he was, determined to donate regardless.Even if Felix was not of his current status, Dorian would have gladly offered his help.When they returned to the orphanage, the director was utterly stunned. The old man began apologizing profusely."I'm so sorry, Mr. Zeller! I was narrow-minded for distrusting your kindness. Please forgive me!"Felix quickly stopped

Felix's expression turned a little strange. Could the security guard be one of those legendary hidden characters he only heard about in stories?"What kind of opportunity are you offering, sir?" Felix asked.The next moment, an overwhelming aura enveloped Felix."If you can casually donate ten million dollars, you must already be aware of the existence of Dragonia's most mysterious martial artists! I happen to be one of the top mentors among them. If you take me as your mentor, I'll teach you martial arts. Wouldn't that be the best?"Felix was truly stunned. This seemingly ordinary security guard turned out to be a Martial Saint-level expert. No matter how far they had fallen, figures of this caliber shouldn't end up as mere gatekeepers."There's no need, sir. I'm actually a martial artist myself."The older man frowned slightly but didn't push further."Fair enough. It seems fate isn't on our side. Young man, doing good deeds may not bring immediate results, but everything will

"Yes. Are you here to buy a car too?" Felix asked.Queenie nodded. "Yeah, the new pink Defender from Range Rover just came out. I'm planning to buy one.""Let's go in together! My friend's bestie works here as a sales rep. Of course, if you have someone you know here, that's fine too," Felix said.Queenie smiled and agreed, leaving Nelly speechless. Meeting such kind-hearted people made her feel that all the unpleasant things she had experienced before were worth it.The three of them entered the dealership, and Nelly's friend, Isabella Wells, who had already received the call, was waiting for them. She was a pretty girl with big waves in her hair, giving off a bright and cheerful vibe."Ladies first. Queenie, why don't you look at the Defender first?" Felix said.Queenie didn't hesitate. "Okay."The purchasing process went smoothly. Felix and Queenie were both straightforward people who didn't fuss over details. They paid the full amount without a second thought. Isabella was t

The middle-aged store manager's commanding presence was hard to ignore. When Isabella was suddenly called out by name, she froze on the spot. Nelly, standing nearby, also widened her eyes in shock.She had only heard of Kurt Gray once, and that was when she visited Felix's Tranquil Clinic. Even a tough guy like Huxley had been scared to death by him. Kurt was definitely someone extremely powerful.When did Isabella get to know him? Nelly had absolutely no idea."Nelly! What should I do? I… I was just bluffing. It was a casual chat with friends, saying that Mr. Gray was especially powerful and that no one dared to mess with him."Nelly didn't know what to do either. She knew Felix was familiar with Kurt, but why would he help now? Especially with so many people on the other side, stepping in carelessly could drag them all into trouble.Felix, standing off to the side, couldn't help but chuckle. It was amusing to see a young woman make such big claims. He didn't need to ask to kno

"Mr. Gray, I… I'm a subordinate of Jason," the group leader said."Get lost!"The simple command was delivered with such lethal force that it was like a bomb exploding. The group leader took two steps back in fear. As he quickly retreated, he said, "Yes, yes! Thank you, Mr. Gray!"In an instant, all the troublemakers scattered, and everyone in the store turned their attention to Isabella. Even her manager was left in utter shock.Isabella really did know Kurt. With just one phone call, she solved such a huge problem.Even Isabella herself couldn't believe it. She quickly ran over and handed the phone back to Felix."Thank you, Felix. I really don't know what I would have done without you."She wondered what kind of person Nelly's friend was, that he was even acquainted with Kurt Gray. On top of that, Kurt had even addressed him very respectfully.There were plenty of people who could afford a Range Rover, but only a few knew Kurt. The difference in status between the two grou

Inside a temporarily requisitioned shop opposite Tranquil Clinic, everyone wore tense expressions. Their disbelief was evident in their furrowed brows and doubtful gazes."Confirm the information again. I find it hard to believe," said a burly middle-aged man, his imposing presence hinting at years spent in a position of power.He was none other than the Warlord of Thunder, one of Dragonia's five mighty warlords, and a figure of immense authority and influence."The suspect currently holding a hostage in the clinic has claimed over the phone to be Candace, ranked as the Five of Hearts among the Thirteen Aces, a group of Super S-rank wanted criminals. It's still unclear whether the claim is genuine," Alistair reported.This was precisely why the Warlord of Thunder was skeptical. The Thirteen Aces, and not just any member but the fifth-ranked, appeared suddenly in a bustling city and personally called the authorities—it was absurd to the extreme.Xena, the Phoenix Warlord, was also

"Inform Candace that the owner is on their way. Let's stabilize the situation for now. What do you think, Warlord of Thunder ?" Xena asked tactfully, giving the Warlord of Thunder the respect his position warranted.He nodded. "That's workable. But convincing the owner to go inside—that's the real challenge."When faced with a ruthless and murderous criminal like this, stepping in would be as good as a death sentence. As an official organization, they had to disclose every detail without hiding anything. It was a daunting task, as any ordinary person would likely shrink back."I'll handle the persuasion," Xena offered. "Let's move to the shop next door. Too many people might make the owner more nervous."A few minutes later, Alistair entered the shop, his expression slightly unusual."Warlords, the owner is here," he informed them."Good. Send them in, and you step out," Xena instructed.But Alistair hesitated, standing rooted to the spot, prompting Xena's displeasure."Is some

"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
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
