Chapter 851

Author: Dreamy Fire
"A Dragonspine?" Felix stood there, totally stunned. "What's going on? Wasn't I supposed to get this after six months of service?"

Xena replied with a serious expression,"Now, you understand how crucial this mission is, don't you? They wouldn't have assigned it to you if it wasn't for the fact that Guneria already has intel on most of our elite agents.

"Thanks to the Chief Commander's endorsement, they decided to give you the Dragonspine early. It should boost your power significantly, right?"

Felix brightened up. "Yeah, absolutely. This definitely improves my chances."

Though Xena maintained a poker face, Felix caught the flash of concern in her eyes. He knew she was still wrestling with what happened to Sarah, and she just could not express her feelings to him.

But Felix did not press the issue. She needed to figure this out on her own, or it would all be a waste.

As sunset approached, the headquarters sent over the Dragonspine. The fact that Hector personally delivered

    As the leader of Skyward Guild, Terry did not even bother to look up as he spoke, "Go back to your training. This isn't your concern." The young man gritted his teeth, clearly unsatisfied. "I know you're wary of his Dragon Knight status, but my sources just confirmed Felix went to Guneria. Even though he booked under different names, my people were good enough to track him." Terry opened his eyes with a dissatisfied look. "You've wasted too much time obsessing over that woman. Fine. I'll grant you this last request. After that, focus on your training. It's quite embarrassing how you haven't even reached Martial Saint level at your age." The young man brightened up. He thought, "Felix, your Dragon Knight status might protect you back home, but you're nothing overseas. Thomas, I'll finally avenge you." Terry had also been frustrated with the situation. He could not touch Felix since he had both Dragon Knight status and evidence against Patrick's death. Any conflict would only hur

    "Luna, what a coincidence!" Felix approached Luna. Luna was equally surprised to see him here. "Felix? I can't believe you're here, too." The blond man shot Felix a strange look before leaving, which was easier than Felix had expected. "Are you okay?" Felix asked as they sat down. Luna nodded. "I'm fine. Thanks for stepping in." Then, she lowered her voice and said, "That foreigner was strange. The charm Reagan gave me activated, which means he was trying something. He's not normal." Given Felix's connection to Reagan, it made sense that the Starfires would receive such protective items. "Don't worry about it. He was probably just acting on impulse. What brings you to Guneria?" Luna smiled. "It's May! After your treatment, she rushed back home and immediately got tested. She's pregnant! I'm going to celebrate with her."May? She was from Wealthhealth Pharmaceuticals, so this could be useful. Felix had no connections in Guneria. He had planned to search for John alone,

    Felix cleared his throat. "Luna, you should head back," he said. Luna was clearly flustered. The suite was cramped, and they were sitting close. The sounds next door were too much for her to handle, too. "Oh... right." She stood up too quickly and lost her balance, landing right in Felix's lap. She felt something pressed against her bottom. Their eyes met as she leaned back, and time seemed to freeze. Instinctively, she kissed him. Though they had not spent much time together, what woman wouldn't be drawn to a man like Felix? He was handsome, capable, and powerful enough to subdue even Reagan. He had captured her heart long ago. The sudden kiss caught Felix off guard. He wanted to push her away, but his hands happened to land somewhere inappropriate. Combined with the constant sounds from next door, everything seemed to naturally progress from there.After what felt like an eternity, Luna stood up, her face crimson. "Luna—" Felix began, but she cut him off.She said, "I k

    "Is it because I'm a martial artist? How did he figure that out?" Felix wondered to himself. He got in the car without resistance. In a country flooded with weapons, anyone bold enough to show a gun was surely ready to use it. The submachine guns couldn't hurt him, but gunfire at an airport would draw massive attention. News coverage would follow, which would kill any chance of completing his mission. After all, who wouldn't make headlines after surviving multiple gunshots? "That's more like it," said the blonde man, satisfied with Felix's compliance. At his nod, the van started moving. Two hours later, they had left the city behind as they drove through endless desert, which was typical Gunerian landscape. They continued off-road for another hour before reaching a compound surrounded by high walls. Armed guards at the entrance meant this was no ordinary facility. "You can get out now!" As Felix stepped down, he could not determine the compound's purpose. A dozen gunmen sur

    "It really is you, Dr. Zeller," Elliott said. Jed stood dumbfounded. How did this random Dragonian martial artist know Elliott?Elliott might not have been a big deal himself, but his mentor was legendary. That was why nobody dared to disrespect him."My sincere apologies for the trouble, Dr. Zeller." That one demonstration from Felix had completely won Elliott over back then, which explained his respectful demeanor. "Jed, come apologize!" Jed complied immediately in fear. After all, his future depended on Elliott's good graces.Once they settled in a room with coffee, Felix asked, "You're conducting human experiments here, aren't you?"Elliott pondered before responding, "My mentor always said the most skilled Dragonian traditional medicine practitioners were also martial artists. Seeing you easily defeat Jed proves that point. I'm sure you noticed he isn't ordinary, right?"Seeing Felix nod, he continued, "Yes. We're doing biochemical human trials, but I can't disclose more

    "You'll show me what a Dragonian martial artist can really do?" Jed scoffed to himself. How scary could it be? If Felix didn't know Elliott, Jed would show him what his transformed state could do.The next moment, Felix threw a casual palm strike into the air. A thunderous explosion followed, blasting a hole in the wall big enough for a car to drive through. Jed and Elliott stood wide-eyed while the armed guards gaped in disbelief.This had to be a joke! How could any human do this? How could a palm strike from 200 feet away cause such destruction?The wall contained reinforced metal, so even an RPG could not breach it. Only a tank stood a chance. Yet, Felix had just demolished it with pure human strength."There are quite a few martial artists like me in Dragonia, some even stronger." Felix left them with that thought before getting in the car. He had exaggerated a bit for intimidation. Truth be told, his power level was rare even in Dragonia.Jed gulped at the sight. His s

    A cold glint flashed in Felix's eyes. "Did you find out where John lives?"Luna nodded but looked helpless. "I did, but May mentioned he hasn't been home for months. She learned this by chance, so she has no idea where he's staying now."Months? Felix frowned and wondered if he had been doing that since the lab incident. This bastard John was paranoid enough to abandon his own home. Was he that scared of dying?John spent money and connections just to watch airports, even here in Guneria. He was certainly a crafty old fox. "I know some people here. Do you want me to ask around?"Felix waved it off. "No need. John's too influential here, so your contacts might alert him."He had already investigated Wealthhealth Pharmaceuticals. It was a major corporation in Guneria, and with John's connections, he was thriving here. Without absolute certainty, any investigation could tip him off and make him flee to another country. Felix had considered asking Elliott's help but decided agai

    John's face changed when he heard Gage's words. He grabbed his desk phone and said, "Get me a ticket out of the country immediately—anywhere except Dragonia!"Gage just smiled silently, making John uncomfortable."To be frank, I'm really terrified. Elders' Council has tried multiple times, yet Felix is simply impossible to kill. His power keeps growing more terrifying. I'm just a coward with no powerful protectors like you. So, this is my only option."Gage nodded. He said with a smile, "We remember your service to the Council. Too bad you crossed into the Grand Elder's most hated domain. Otherwise, you'd have plenty of protection."John sighed helplessly. Business was about profit, so sometimes he couldn't control himself. Besides, how was he supposed to know what the Grand Elder hated?If he had known experimenting on those children would anger the Grand Elder, he would not have touched it no matter what. Though it had advanced his company's pharmaceuticals, losing the Grand Eld

    The moment the topic came up, Felix's gaze flickered, avoiding direct eye contact. No matter how you put it, even though Xena would also benefit from it, it still felt somewhat unfair. It felt that way, especially since they weren't in a relationship. If they were married or at least dating, it wouldn't be an issue at all."I'm exhausted. I need another two days to rest," he said.Billy scoffed. "I know your soul energy is depleted, but trust me. Your fatigue will disappear instantly once your souls merge. The feeling is beyond words. I'm sure you've heard from the Malevolent Phantom how irresistible Soul Binding is, even for those who've already experienced love and passion."Wait, what? Felix was speechless. It seemed that there was really no way out of it."Oh, one last thing. After you and Xena… you know, your soul energy will be completely absorbed and stored away. That means you won't have any left to wield a soul-bound weapon or use any soul attacks. Are you sure you still

    There was only one explanation—Felix really could heal soul damage."Of course, I healed him. Let me rest for a bit. Wake me up when the sun comes up."Felix was utterly exhausted. Even if an S-tier Malevolent Phantom appeared beside him, he couldn't be bothered to care. If Donna had truly wanted to kill him, she would have done it long ago. There was no reason for her to wait until now.As Donna watched Felix slip into a deep sleep almost instantly, her expression grew more complex.What kind of ridiculous joke was that? Even though Leonardo was a crossbreed, his soul had already inherited the traits of a Malevolent Phantom. While it wasn't exactly the same as a true Malevolent Phantom, the essence of his soul had changed.And yet, Felix had still managed to heal him. If word of this got out, it would shake the entire Malevolent Phantom world to its core.It was like finding out that some miracle doctor could cure any disease in the human world. People would go absolutely crazy.

    Leonardo's body suddenly started convulsing, and with foam spilling from his mouth, even a fool could tell something had gone wrong.Damage to the soul was entirely different from physical injuries. If one got a cut, even without treatment, their body would eventually heal on its own. However, the soul wasn't like that. Any damage was permanent and had widespread consequences. Even if just a fraction of an inch of the soul was harmed, the physical reaction could be extreme.Felix let out a long breath. "Finally got it out. It sounds easy, but doing it was incredibly difficult. Even with my soul energy, I nearly couldn't hold on."The level of precision required to make such an impossibly fine cut was beyond imagination. To do it without causing any collateral damage would require soul energy beyond comprehension.Of course, Leonardo's soul had been damaged. There was no avoiding it."At least he's alive. You've done all you could," Donna said.However, Felix just smiled. "That'

    At that moment, Felix turned to Norman. "Step outside and say the lines you've rehearsed. Then, I'll take your son with me. He'll be back by dawn."Norman was beyond relieved. If Leonardo could survive, nothing else mattered.He had long anticipated this day. Living on Earth, even if it wasn't intentional, he had killed more than one person. There was no way he'd be let off the hook.In the living room, Lina was in tears, bombarding him with questions, while Steve kept sighing heavily. No one could have imagined that a once-happy family would fall apart overnight."I'm taking Leonardo for treatment. I won't say it again."Seeing the scene unfold, Felix spoke up. With Norman's cooperation, things were going more smoothly. Since he had been assured that Leonardo would return safely, there was no reason for further resistance.The situation had to be handled strictly. There was no room for defiance.Just then, Xena arrived. She had actually been in Zuera since the day before but ha

    Norman looked into Felix's eyes and knew there was no room for negotiation. He lowered his head in silence.Seeing this, Felix dialed Donna's number."What's up?" she asked."I found a crossbreed.""A crossbreed? Oh, you mean a hybrid? What about it?"Felix had no choice but to ask Donna for help. No matter how he looked at it, he also wanted to protect Leonardo."This crossbreed is only three years old and seems to have inherited a soul-related trait. He just killed someone out of pure instinct."Before Felix could finish, Donna had already guessed the situation. She let out a chuckle, her tone carrying a hint of eerie amusement. "Let me guess, you want to save the kid?"Felix didn't bother denying it. "That's right. I want to know if there's a way."After a long pause, Donna's voice came through again, "There is! But I can only assist. Since he's just three years old and hasn't developed much yet, I can mark the part of his soul that drives his instincts. "You'll need to

    A trace of sweetness flickered in Norman's eyes, and he couldn't help but smile."Yeah, I never imagined it, either. Me, an A-tier Malevolent Phantom, actually falling in love with a human. I'm completely, hopelessly in love."Felix froze as he hadn't expected it to be true."You probably don't believe me. No other Malevolent Phantom would, either. But it's real. I truly love Lina. After experiencing what you humans call love, I was completely consumed by it. Maybe that's why, when we were together, our souls intertwined, and that's how Leonardo was born."Norman grew emotional as he spoke."Do you understand? When I realized that Leonardo had inherited the unique traits of a Malevolent Phantom's soul, I was overjoyed beyond words."But I regretted it instantly when I remembered where we were. Because it meant that if Norman was ever discovered, he would be in danger of being killed at any moment."And now, with your arrival today, I knew that moment had come. I just didn't expe

    The existence of crossbreeds was classified as top secret by headquarters. If word got out, even if the general public remained unaware, just the knowledge reaching certain members within headquarters would cause mass panic.Would you dare to question whether your partner might be a Malevolent Phantom? Would you risk wondering if your child inherited some of its traits and became a crossbreed? No one wanted to shoulder that responsibility.Take Johann and his team, for example. They had absolutely no knowledge of crossbreeds, and their resistance right now stemmed entirely from their own moral convictions."Sir!"Johann didn't dare stop Felix outright, but he raised his voice to make his stance clear. The others followed suit, not to mention Lina, who was still sobbing uncontrollably, and Steve, whose eyes were red with fury as he glared at Felix without a hint of fear."Mr. Zeller! If you're really going to take my grandson, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"Tears st

    "So what?" Lina asked. "Even if I lied, what does that person's death have to do with my son?"Felix suddenly roared, "Are you telling me that when you opened the door, your son never left your sight for even a second?""I—"Lina opened her mouth but suddenly found herself at a loss for words. That instinctive hesitation was the most telling of all."Get the car ready. Take her with us. We're going to Lina's house.""Yes, sir!"The convoy arrived at a luxurious mansion in Zuera. The moment Felix and his team rushed inside, they saw Steve sitting in the living room, holding a three-year-old boy in his arms."Mr. Zeller, why are all of you here?"Lina, restrained by Felix's men, screamed in a frenzy, "Dad! Save Leonardo! They're trying to take him away!"Then, she turned to Felix, shouting in fury, "You monsters! He's just three years old, and you suspect him of murder? I'll expose you! I'll take you to court!"By the time she finished, she was sobbing uncontrollably."Mr. Zel

    Even though Lina knew Felix held an unimaginably high status—so high that even Steve feared him—his continued questioning and the direction of his suspicions pushed her to the edge. The mere idea that her son might be involved sent her into a silent rage.She was a mother, and when it came to her child, she did not care who the hell the other person was."I'm just asking questions," Felix said flatly. "Just answer them. Don't make me start quoting laws and rights to get you to cooperate."His voice was so calm. For a moment, Lina wondered if she had overreacted, so she took a breath and continued.She explained, "He wasn't in the stall. It's way too small in there. I left the door cracked open so he could see me, and since I had the tether on, plus the nanny and driver waiting outside, I wasn't worried about him wandering off."Felix did not say anything right away. He stood there, clearly deep in thought.Silvercrest Restaurant might have been an upscale dining place, but it was
