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

After using a needle on an employee for information, Felix learned that no one could access the top ten floors of Wealthhealth Pharmaceuticals without John's permission as the CEO. Even his secretaries worked below the tenth floor.Even if he got in, a forced entry would alert John immediately. He would be gone before Felix reached him. …Around noon, a Maybach emerged from the underground parking garage. It was followed by five identical cars without license plates.From what the employee said, Felix knew this was John's vehicle. But he detected three people in each car through his senses. Having never seen John, he could not distinguish his energy from the others.The six cars split up at the first intersection, making tracking nearly impossible. "Forget it. I'll focus on treating Yasmin's cousin first. I'll have to ask Elliott for help later," Felix concluded.…Around 3:00 pm, Felix and Yasmin arrived at a suburban residential area. Guneria's vast territory and relatively

Yasmin helped Linda up, then turned to Felix. "Dr. Zeller, you can treat this, right?"He was the first to identify Linda's condition, so surely that meant hope. Why else would Linda be so emotional?"There are two options. Please sit down, and I'll explain."Only after Felix spoke did Linda return to her seat, her attitude completely transformed. "Please go on, Dr. Zeller."After a moment's thought, Felix said, "First, I can use acupuncture to control your condition and reduce it to once a month."Before he could mention the second option, Linda's face fell."Is there no complete cure?" She never wanted to experience the unbearable itching and disgusting scales again."There is, but it requires something I don't have. We need to find the person who caused your condition."The substance in Linda's body wasn't exactly a toxin—it was more like a hormone that had fully merged with her hands. Even with Felix's expertise, he could not completely remove it. The only alternative was a

"I can't ask him to meet me. He hasn't blocked me but won't respond to messages or calls. But I know where he lives. He's a painter, so he barely leaves his house," Linda said. Things would be perfect if he were still around. "Give me the address. Yasmin and I will go. You stay home and wait for our news."After sharing the location, Linda added quietly, "Dr. Zeller, you won't hurt him, will you?"Yasmin covered her face in exasperation. Even after what he had likely done, Linda was still worried about him. Love really did make people hopelessly blind."Wake up, Linda! Dr. Zeller's here to treat you, not hurt people! I'm the one who won't let Pierre off easy. Say one more word, and I might slap some sense into you!"Hearing Yasmin's threats, Linda fell silent. In the car, Felix smiled. "Ms. Qualls, you're quite perceptive."One sentence cleared Felix of responsibility while hinting at Pierre's fate. No wonder her father trusted her with Qualls Pharmaceutical at such a young ag

Though Pierre remained silent, his wide eyes confirmed Felix's suspicions."You're causing harm to others at such a young age instead of doing good deeds. Linda is suffering while you paint comfortably here. Don't you know what you've done?"At Linda's name, Pierre broke down in tears. "It wasn't intentional! I swear! I... I just wanted to touch the skin of the person I loved. Is that so wrong?"Then, his voice rose to a shout. "Did I choose what family I was born into? I'd rather be normal than have these disgusting hands!"Felix helped Pierre's gloves back on and signaled Yasmin to turn around. She immediately launched into him. "So, you knew what would happen when you touched Linda, yet you did it anyway?"Pierre wept harder. "No! I didn't know until afterward. I'd never have touched her if I knew. I love Linda enough to die for her. How could I possibly hurt her?"After checking Pierre's pulse, Felix shook his head. "Early on, one scale would have sufficed. Now we need both

Just one glance at Pierre's hands had frozen a Martial God like Yasmin. That just showed how terrifying Fish Men at higher levels had to be.The mutation rarely passed down in the Lannerby family. Sometimes, entire generations were skipped. Pierre's father's generation had none, yet Pierre inherited it.His family sent him abroad for protection. Despite the prevalence of guns, Pierre's abilities kept him safer here than in Dragonia. The "Fish Man" title had been passed down through the Lannerby bloodline since ancient times. Their reputation as the Thief Guild's nemesis was one-sided—their power affected everyone, not just thieves.Felix realized the Fish Men had been holding back. Thief Guild believed touch was necessary, but mere eye contact at their scaled hands sufficed. Those with purple scales and above had full control over their powers.The Lannerbys' vendetta traced back generations. People from Thief Guild had stolen something precious, creating a blood feud. The Lanner

Yasmin stood speechless. She had never seen Linda smile like this before."After you left, I did a lot of thinking! I love him deeply, and now, I know he still loves me. Since I'm already affected, I can hold his hand without worry now, right, Dr. Zeller?"At that moment, Pierre broke down as he sobbed uncontrollably."Linda, are you absolutely sure about this?" Since their clasped hands were behind them, Yasmin could safely offer her counsel. Linda nodded, kissing Pierre's cheek. "Yes, Yasmin. I'm certain! Though it's unbearable, I'm okay with it. Having Pierre by my side is enough. "After experiencing love this deep, I doubt I'll ever find someone who loves me this much again."Pierre pulled away from her and donned his gloves. Then, he cupped Linda's face, giving her a gentle kiss. "Linda, I'll love you forever, but I don't want you remembering the man who hurt you."He moved lightning-fast. As he pulled out a small axe, he swung it toward his left wrist."No!" Despite bei

Yasmin said, "Dr. Zeller, I know it's a lot to ask. If it's too troublesome, we can forget about it."Felix was about to refuse immediately, but the mention of Wealthhealth Pharmaceuticals piqued his interest. Since the vice president was involved, he thought he might be able to infiltrate the company and find John after disguising himself. "Sure, I've got nothing else going on anyway," Felix agreed, which made Yasmin beam with joy as she repeatedly thanked him.At that moment, Felix decided to tell Yasmin that his current identity was inconvenient once they reached the restaurant. After donning the Shadow Mask, he could dine as another medical expert without issues. However, just as they parked the car and Felix was about to speak, his phone buzzed with a text from an unknown number."Felix, it's John Reynolds. I know you're in Guneria, and I know how desperately you've been trying to find me. Here's your chance—come to this location tomorrow night. Of course, I'll und

"I don't see a trace of sadness in your eyes," Felix said.The very first sentence made Zayden visibly uneasy. He quickly explained, "I'm the head of this family. If I break down in tears, what will happen to everyone else? We finally found our long-lost daughter, only to be separated again by life and death. I don't even know how to describe this feeling."Felix remained expressionless."Just be honest with me. We've gathered enough information to confirm that you never had a twin daughter. If you tell the truth now, Donna can return home safely. Otherwise, I can't guarantee anything."After speaking with Donna earlier, Felix had instructed Harith to investigate the Webster family. There was no record of Donna ever having a twin sister.After a long silence, Zayden finally said, "Alright. You're the legendary healer and a representative of the headquarters. I trust you'll handle things fairly."You're right. My daughter is dead, and I'm not sad at all. In fact, I feel relieved
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1159
At this point, there was no way Donna hadn't figured out what Felix was implying. Her mouth dropped open in shock."Oh, my God! Are you saying it's my twin sister?"Felix's expression was just as intense. "That's right. She looks exactly like you. I've seen her with my own eyes. Facial recognition technology isn't advanced enough to tell the difference. Her face could definitely unlock your phone."Without wasting a second, Felix instructed Donna to stay put and immediately rushed out."These Malevolent Phantoms are too cunning."The Malevolent Phantom must have somehow found out about her twin sister and used it to their advantage. Perhaps the Malevolent Phantom had used some other method to threaten the Webster family to secure a safe identity.Felix finally understood that Helena and Tony couldn't have left behind a foolproof strategy for every possible scenario. Learning about the Malevolent Phantoms would have to be a slow and meticulous process.Initially, he thought a Mal

There was no doubt that Donna was innocent. The surveillance footage clearly tracked her movements from the hotel to her home without any irregularities.Perhaps because Felix had helped her family, she naturally felt more at ease with him than with the others here. Forcing herself to stay calm, she started thinking carefully.About ten minutes passed before her expression suddenly changed. "Wait! I just remembered something! Felix, can you get my phone back?""No problem."Once the phone was brought over, Donna, still wearing plastic gloves, immediately turned it on. She opened a WhatsApp group chat."Look, Felix. This is our group chat for the murder mystery game. I started inviting everyone at 2:00 pm yesterday."As her fingers moved across the screen, Felix observed every detail. The chat clearly showed the time and location of the meeting, along with everyone's confirmations."See this message? It was sent by one of us at 3:10 pm."Felix frowned. There didn't seem to be an

"How did you figure it out?" Felix asked.He quickly calmed himself. That A-tier Malevolent Phantom had killed so many people without leaving a single trace. Could Harith have uncovered something so easily?If it were true, Milo would probably die from sheer frustration.Harith pulled out his phone to play a surveillance clip. He explained, "This is a suspicious individual we spotted last night. If we start with him, we'll definitely find the key to this case."However, the moment Felix glanced at the footage, his expression turned strange. The suspicious individual in question was none other than he himself, disguised as a rugged man."You don't need to investigate that man. That person is me," he said.Harith was stunned. Fortunately, as a martial artist himself, he knew that disguising himself was an easy feat for Felix. Hence, he didn't question it."My lord, the interrogation of Donna is complete. Per your instructions, we haven't let her go yet. However, we haven't found a

"Where's Welson?" Felix asked."He was taken away by the Law Enforcement Team. I heard they came straight from headquarters, so I couldn't do anything."Last night, Felix had confirmed that everything seemed fine. Nonetheless, he still played it safe and had Yadiel assign another person to monitor the security room. Meanwhile, Welson stayed in the room next to 303. His job was to report immediately if anything suspicious happened. Yet, something still went wrong."I see," Felix said.Arriving at a base on the outskirts of Notura City, Felix presented his Dragon Knight ID. Moments later, someone rushed over."Greetings, Dragon Knight. I'm Harith Labelle, under the command of Lord Cairo."Felix nodded and walked inside. "Take me to the person from Room 302 first.""Yes, sir!"As one of Cairo's men, Harith knew exactly what Felix was in charge of in Notura City. There was no need for further explanation.Inside a room, Welson stood up in shock the moment he saw Felix. He was te

Felix knew he was not seeing things. The woman knocking on the door was definitely Donna. But considering the Webster family's status in Notura City, why would she have to be in a place like this? Moreover, why would she be meeting with five other people? It made no sense.Questions aside, the moment five people matching the target's age and gender range had gathered, Felix knew it was time to act.Rushing from the surveillance room to a spot just outside Room 303, he immediately activated his Grandmaster Realm's domain. Within this field, he could sense the presence of every living being inside.Malevolent Phantoms had a fixed pattern—they could only consume a person's soul after assuming their form and making physical contact. That meant the Phantom had to be inside the room at some point.Even though Malevolent Phantoms could suppress their energy, they still could not escape the detection of his domain, which he had tested it before.All he needed now was the final person to

The man said, "Flip the last card. No matter what it is, you'll get at least 500 dollars. If you refuse, I'm giving you a bad review. Do it right now."Since Felix had already fully committed to his food delivery role, he knew just how devastating a bad review could be. There was no choice—he had to play along. He said, "Alright."The hotel suite was filled with six people gathered around a poker table, playing Hold'em. Felix was not an expert but knew enough to understand what was happening.Four community cards had already been revealed—A, A, K, K—and the young man who pulled Felix in was demanding that he flip the final card. Judging by the stacks of poker chips on the table, this was no small bet. Why they were letting a delivery guy reveal the last card was anyone's guess.Felix flipped over the final community card with everyone watching—another Ace. The young man burst into laughter, shouting, "Four of a kind! I got four Aces!"He slammed his cards onto the table, his exc

Felix had never heard of the title "legendary healer" before. Stacy asked, "Aren't you Mr. Felix Zeller, the legendary healer?"Felix was puzzled. "Yes, I'm Felix Zeller, but I have no idea what a legendary healer is." Stacy suddenly became excited. "Oh, my God! I'm actually standing in front of the legendary healer! Even Mr. Lemuel Morris, the number one master healer, admitted that his skills couldn't compare to yours. "Ever since the title of Miracle Doctor was established, you've been recognized as the strongest master healer alive!"The entire room fell into stunned silence. Even Eunice had never expected that the man she randomly met on a plane was the very same legendary healer who had shaken the entire Dragonia two years ago.No one had ever seen him, and no one knew what he looked like. Yet today, he was standing right in front of them."All that legendary healer nonsense doesn't matter." Felix sighed. He thought Lemuel and the others were really getting caught up

The girl, Stacy Barnes, looked completely unimpressed, as if Felix's phone call was nothing more than a pointless attempt to save himself from getting embarrassed. In her mind, no matter who he called, he would still end up leaving in embarrassment.On the other end of the call, Silas fell silent for a moment before letting out a bitter chuckle. "Just got back and already swamped, huh? Well, let's catch up when you're free. So, you found out I took in a new apprentice?"Felix raised a brow. "Yeah. What's the story there?"Silas hesitated before sighing. "It just kind of happened. Maybe I was just looking for something to take my mind off Zara."Felix knew how much Silas cared for Zara, and he had no doubt about that. He replied, "Zara's fine. She made it through the worst of it, and she'll be back to full health soon."He had been so busy since returning that he had completely forgotten to update Silas about Zara's condition. When he left Martial City, he had checked in on her—her
