“Open the door for me at once. I need to wash and change!” Hearing that, the guild member opened the door and ushered Hogster in, fearing that Hogster would make things difficult for him. Hogster was a temperamental person. He would be doomed if he offended Hogster. His life in the guild would never be easy again. Hogster could not be bothered with the guild member and simply left. He had to go back to wash and tidy up his appearance. Before he returned to his room, he bumped into his father, who was passing by the door. Alain Bacon was a clean freak and would never allow such sloppiness. He almost went mad with anger when he saw a man with a foul smell appearing in the guild. “What’s up with your appearance?” Alain was not a fool and immediately recognized his son. He trembled in anger when he took a closer look at his son. Hogster started crying at the sight of Alain. In his panic, he wanted to hug Alain. Alain backed away, unwilling to have any contact with him. “H
“In that case, let’s show them the power of the Hexa Guild. I’ll send some powerful members to raze that shabby place to the ground!” With a wave of his hand, Alain summoned an elder and ordered him to take some people and deal with Philip. Hogster was very excited when he saw that elder, who was very strong. He would regain his dignity once this elder took action. “Let me go with the third elder. I want to see Philip begging for mercy at my feet. I want to show them the power of the Hexa Guild!” Hogster said aggressively as if he was sure that Philip would be dealt with. Alain did not refuse Hogster's request. Even if Hogster had not brought it up himself, Alain would have asked him to go along. Practice required a stable mind. After suffering so badly, Hogster’s mental state had definitely been greatly affected, so he had to recover from that blow. The best way to regain his confidence was to deal with the culprit or better, kill him. “Third Elder, I’ll count on you. I’m
Before Hogster could go into his room to clean up, Alain could not bear it any longer and performed a cleansing spell. Hogster was finally clean and no longer smelled. “Third Elder, wait for me. I’ve been locked up for a while and haven’t adjusted yet!” As Hogster chased after the group, the other members ran so quickly that Hogster could not keep up. Dennie ran faster, hoping to lose Hogster. He was so weak that he would not be able to help Dennis even if he caught up. Soon, Petal City became boisterous as a large group of outsiders in uniform entered the city. They looked angry as if someone offended them, so they were probably here to cause trouble. The onlookers panicked at this scene and gave way to them. No one wanted to get beaten for no reason, so they would rather avoid the outsiders. Dennis was full of disdain at their reaction. “What a bunch of cowardly commoners.” They looked like lowly civilians whose lives were worthless. Dennis always enjoyed gazes of adm
Lazlo had tried making contact with someone from a guild back then, but they ignored him and even mocked him, which was a great blow to him. Due to this, Lazlo vowed to develop his family so that he would not lose out to the guilds. No matter what he did, however, there was a big gap between a family and a guild. The guilds were too strong. The members they trained could easily crush normal people. On the other hand, a family placed more importance on wealth, so the two parties pursued different things. Even if Lazlo wanted to pursue power, he could not develop his people without a proper technique on hand, so he could only give up and focus on running his business in the end. He wanted to ride on the coattails of the guilds, but it was easier said than done. He vowed to get in touch with these people even at the risk of his life if he ever found a chance. He had no idea that he had missed the best opportunity to forge a connection with a guild. If he had treated Vanna a litt
At this time, one of Hogster’s followers stepped forward. He had been with Hogster the whole time, so he was aware of the situation. He felt very sorry for himself when he suffered a beating together with Hogster previously. “That’s right, we’re no match for him. He’s very strong. Even though Hogster is a young prodigy, he couldn’t get an upper hand at all. This man also has a powerful rabbit. You must be careful not to fall for their tricks!” The guild member kindly warned Dennis, but it sounded more like mockery to Dennis' ears. Dennis’ scowl grew bigger. He felt like these people were joking with him. “Young lad, I don’t want to make things difficult for a junior. Since you’re in the wrong, just apologize to our young heir on your knees and we’ll consider this matter over. I don't want to take action against you.” Dennis was very concerned about his reputation and did not want to tarnish it at this age. It would be a disgrace if anyone found out that he took action agains
Hogster nodded. That was indeed the case. “That's right. I never said anything bad about the third elder and his son outside of the guild. Don’t put words in my mouth!” Dennis’ face turned stiff upon hearing this. That stupid Hogster actually admitted it. Now, he had no idea whether he should get angry or not. If Hogster denied it, Dennis would give him the benefit of the doubt no matter what. However, he actually admitted it! Philip felt a little anxious for Hogster. He would despair if he had such a stupid person under his command. Dennis grimaced. He was put on the spot and at a loss for what to do. As someone who had weathered many storms, he had no idea what to do. “I never thought you'd be this kind of person, saying bad things about others behind their backs. If I were the third elder, I’d forget about helping you now. You’d better apologize to the third elder right now,” Ronan added fuel to the fire. The man in front of him was his love rival. He would never give
“Third Elder, I’ll leave this to you. I want you to kill everyone else and catch Vanna so that we can get married. Let's see whether her family will agree to it or not!” Hogster waved his hand, trying to act domineering. He smirked cruelly as if he really thought of himself as a domineering young guild leader. “I heard that her family is looking for her. In that case, Vanna must have run away from home. She abandoned her family just to avoid the marriage. Why do that?” Hogster was right. Vanna did run away from home. “Let’s see if you have what it takes to take my wife away!” Ronan stepped forward. He knew that he represented Philip’s strength. It would be a disgrace if he allowed Hogster to take the upper hand. Carlos glanced at Philip and knew that Philip called the shots. Carlos did not want a fight to break out. After all, the Hexa Guild was quite well-known. Combined with the slight connections between the two guilds, it would be bad if their relationship turned sour.
Dennis did not know how powerful Ronan was, but he was disgusted with Hogster. He felt upset when he thought that he had to stand up for him. Dennis wanted to persuade both parties, at least to smoothen things out, but he was now caught in a tight spot with no way out. “I’m sorry, young man, but I have my duty to perform.” Dennis shook his head helplessly. Although he loathed Hogster, he was the third elder of the Hexa Guild, after all. His duty was to take Vanna away. “I have to take Vanna with me. There’s some communication between the Hexa Guild and the Celestial Palace. If you want to find out more, you can ask the leader of the Celestial Palace.” Dennis did not want to fight these young people. He just wanted to take Vanna and quickly leave this place. Ronan did not comment. Since Dennis had voiced his opinion, a fight was all it would take. The most powerful one would have the final say. The loser would leave, and the winner could do whatever he wanted. Just when Hogs
“What do we do with him?” Carlos asked. He wanted to skin the hooded man alive. Rabbit bared his teeth. “Kill him! Take off his clothes and hang him outside for everyone to see!” At this time, Alain finally noticed the commotion on this side. They were very noisy, so everyone kept looking over, trying to see what happened. Alain saw a familiar man lying on the ground. “What’s going on?” He walked over for a closer look and saw the hooded man! “What’s this? How could this happen?” Alain was dumbfounded. The onlookers had been watching, so they knew the situation. “What happened?” Alain asked in agony, wondering what happened. A kind onlooker explained, “Oh, don’t you know? That rabbit knocked the hooded man out!” Alain was taken aback by that remark. “How is that possible?” Alain was full of disbelief and thought someone had done something behind the scenes. Although he knew that the rabbit was powerful, he did not think it was strong enough to deal with the hooded
“You went too far! I’m well-respected wherever I go. How dare you treat me as a pet?” Although Rabbit had lost his memories after turning into an inanimate puppet, he could still deduce what had happened from Philip’s remarks. The hooded man was embarrassed to hear a rabbit reprimanding him. “If I can take you as my pet, that’s just a testament to my ability. If Philip couldn’t control you, what’s the big deal if I took you for my own?” The hooded man had always seen Rabbit as a pet, never a friend. Rabbit’s only purpose was to entertain him and fight for him. “Philip, leave this guy to me.” Rabbit was eager to take care of this guy. Carlos glared at the hooded man, certain that he had never seen him before. The hooded man also turned his attention to Carlos. From the match earlier, he knew that Carlos was from the Celestial Palace. In that case, he would have no reservations. He wanted to get to know someone from the Celestial Palace anyway. He ignored Philip and Rabbit
“What?” Carlos suddenly felt that maybe that rabbit in the hooded man's arms was Philip’s pet. “Stay here. I’ll take a closer look. I have a feeling that the guy is more than meets the eye. I think he was the one sneaking around my house.” After saying this, Philip walked over briskly. He had never seen such an arrogant thief. The guy was bold enough to appear in public after stealing someone’s rabbit. “Did you steal that rabbit from me?” Philip approached that man and asked solemnly without beating about the bush. The hooded man was taken aback by Philip's direct approach. “When did you appear behind me?” The hooded man was horrified to know that someone had snuck up behind him without his knowledge. It was as if Philip was immaterial. Feeling Philip's strength, the hooded man dared not say another word. He thought he was undefeatable, which was why he decided to watch the fun in person, but he got careless. “Are you saying that this rabbit belongs to you? Why don’t you
Jeff sneered at this scene and knew that it was time for payback. He did not plan to kill Hogster at first. After all, he was the young heir of a guild and represented the Hexa Guild. However, Hogster had pissed him off thoroughly. He had to kill Hogster at all costs. Thinking of this, Jeff raised the sword in his hand and stabbed Hogster. With that, everything was over. Alain closed his eyes at this scene. He shook his head in helpless agony. Due to the technique that he practiced, he could not have another child. Although he had been working hard to groom Hogster over the years, he had not stopped trying to get another child either. However, none of the women could get pregnant! Hogster was his only child so far. Unfortunately, his only son was dead. Under Jeff’s attack, he turned into dust and vanished without a trace! “How did things turn out this way?” Alain aged drastically all of a sudden and looked very haggard. The hooded man watched the scene warily, shocked
“What's going on? What drug did he take? It’s so powerful!” Jeff exclaimed in horror. All his attacks were ineffective, so what about Hogster’s attacks? At this time, Hogster attacked Jeff. His invincible mode would only last a few minutes. He had to seize the opportunity to take Jeff down. However, Hogster was not worried at all. In his opinion, dealing with Jeff was just a matter of seconds. “Go to hell!” Hogster made his move. He launched a killing move without holding back at all. Jeff was no match for Hogster at all. He was sent flying and fell to the ground miserably. Everyone looked at him with pity. Jeff spat a mouthful of blood and looked at Hogster in horror. Hogster had become so strong that he was no match for him at all. “Hehe, is that all you can take?” Hogster sneered. He was about to kill Jeff when the latter took out a pill from his pocket and swallowed it. It was the same pill he had taken earlier. Sure enough, Jeff was back to normal after taking
“Wow, I feel so good as if I just had a massage.” Jeff praised Philip in his mind. After taking the pill, he recovered instantly. Even the ailments he had been suffering from in the past were healed. He was in such good shape that he could face Hogster with no problem. He even felt that he could resist Hogster’s attack this time. Philip nodded. Jeff was quite good. He had thought that Jeff was already defeated and would not even be able to move. However, Jeff forced himself to take out a pill and swallowed it. “He’s quite good at persevering and has a bright future. You can consider grooming him,” Philip said to Jamie. Jamie was surprised to hear such a high assessment from Philip. Jamie attached great importance to Philip's suggestion. Since Philip said so, he would develop Jeff properly. “Aren’t you very full of yourself? Keep going.” Jeff rushed forward and started beating Hogster up. Hogster was already dying and could not put up a fight at all. “Stop!” Hogste
The Hexa Guild had lost the earlier match, so Hogster was upset about it. Their guild should be undefeatable. They should have made a name for themselves by now, but everything was ruined. Although Hogster did not know why the Celestial Palace was so powerful, he had a feeling that they were cheating. “I’m the pride of the Hexa Guild while you’re just an ordinary member. Don't even think about resisting me,” Hogster said calmly, clearly looking down on Jeff. Of course, Jeff was not to be outdone. “My favorite hobby is to beat someone while they're down. Your guild's reputation is so bad anyway. Why bother holding on to it?” His remark struck the Hexa Guild’s sore spot, and all the members scowled at him. Indeed, the Hexa Guild had a very bad reputation. They could only recruit ordinary people who could not join other guilds but yearned to practice. “Hehe, cut the crap. We’ll know the outcome after a fight!” After saying this, Hogster charged at Jeff with a weapon in han
It would do the Hexa Guild no good to keep Vanna alive, so they would not allow it to happen. Although the members of the Hexa Guild were angry, they quickly cheered up. There would be several matches with the Celestial Palace to go. They could not lose their fighting spirit because of this trivial matter. “Let’s see how powerful the Celestial Palace is. I refuse to believe that we’re no match for them.” Hogster decided to take the stage because the upcoming opponent was just an ordinary member of the Celestial Palace. They were not very strong. In his opinion, an ordinary member could not be very strong. It would be easy to win this match, and it would save him a lot of trouble too. It would be bad if he faced a dark horse like the previous match. The hooded man saw the performance of the Celestial Palace and was surprised by their extraordinary strength. However, he did not notice anything unusual. He simply thought that it was their usual strength. Since they were so str
“This is interesting.” The hooded man glanced at the people discussing this matter and felt expectant. He could not wait to meet Philip. On the other hand, Philip was watching the competition and had no idea what was going on. “Oh, I see, you’re the young lady of the Celestial Palace. I thought you were very powerful, but this is all there is to you.” Vanna’s opponent was an ugly woman who was very upset with her beautiful appearance. Vanna looked at her mockingly. “The outcome has yet to be determined. I don’t think you’re any better either.” After saying this, Vanna looked at the other party, waiting for her to make the first move. The ugly woman was furious at Vanna’s provocation. “Very well. Since you don’t know what’s good for you, let me show you what I’m capable of!” After saying this, she attacked Vanna as if she were ready to get rid of her. She had received an order from the guild leader to deal with Vanna properly. The Hexa Guild had initially planned to qu
