The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1161
In the end, Felix called Eunice again to postpone his dinner plans with Donna. Even though the person who died in the Webster family wasn't important, a few of Donna's friends from the murder mystery group had lost their lives for real. There was no way she wouldn't be devastated.The reason Felix stayed behind was a lingering suspicion. It was nothing concrete—just a hunch. But it was enough to make him want to stay in Notura City for a few more days.With nothing better to do, he decided to check out the location on the note he had been handed earlier. It led him to an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city."Are you sure you don't want me to bring a few more guys, Mr. Zeller?"The one speaking was Yadiel. Felix had called him over, too. Since they didn't know who was behind this, having Yadiel around could make things a lot easier."What are you afraid of with me around?" Felix asked.Yadiel looked embarrassed. He recalled his destroyed G-Wagon and quickly waved his ha

Seeing that Horace had finally calmed down, the middle-aged man standing nearby spoke up, "Mr. Sawyer, if you really can't let this go, there is a way to handle it."Horace shot him a dark look. "What way? My family has no ties with Yadiel. If things really escalate, he won't hold back. And if my father finds out that I got into a conflict with Yadiel over a woman, he'll kill me."Just from Yadiel's phone call, Horace could easily guess that Eunice had been putting on an act all along. Yadiel had business dealings with the Jamison family. That had to be the reason Felix escaped so easily."Damn it! He's just a food delivery guy. How dare he think he can land a woman like that?"He couldn't wrap his head around it. How was he any worse than Felix? The only explanation was that Eunice had some particular tastes that she had been hiding all this time."Mr. Sawyer, have you forgotten? Your father has Black Dog under his command, and he said you were allowed to use them once."Horace

When Felix returned with the coffee, he handed it over. In exchange, the person inside gave him a plastic bag. Curious, he peeked inside and found an autographed album."Lindsay Yarwood?"The name slipped out of his mouth as he looked at the woman on the signed album cover. She looked exactly like one of his high school classmates, who also shared the name Lindsay Yarwood.She had been quiet and reserved back in school, with hardly any friends. Most people barely knew anything about her. That would have been the end of it. However, on graduation day, someone pointed out something strange while looking at their class photos."Hey! Look at these two pictures. Doesn't Lindsay's face look exactly the same?"One was their graduation photo, and the other was a group picture from a school event back when they were sophomores. Upon closer inspection, they realized it was true. Everyone else had changed in some way. After all, three years had passed. However, Lindsay looked exactly the

"Thanks, but there's no way I'd sell something this valuable from an old classmate. I'm definitely keeping it," Felix said.Just as Lindsay was about to insist, Felix smiled and pulled out his phone. "Can we exchange contact info?"Without a second thought, Lindsay happily shared her number and even added him on WhatsApp. She had none of the aloofness one might expect from a celebrity."Lindsay, if you ever find yourself in trouble, something you can't handle on your own, try reaching out to me. Sometimes, things aren't always what they seem," Felix said.With that, he left. In a world filled with Malevolent Phantoms, running into an old classmate—especially one who was still so kind and genuine—was a rare and pleasant surprise. Whether or not she would actually contact him later wasn't something he needed to worry about.By the time he stepped out of the five-star hotel, it was already past 9:00 pm. He rode his electric scooter a short distance before turning into a dark alley.

Eunice was utterly terrified as she watched a burly man carry someone in and then roughly toss them onto the ground. It wasn't until then that she realized it was Felix.Horace grinned even wider. "That's right. If I remember correctly, his name is Felix Zeller, isn't it? Damn it! You'd rather mess around with some lowly delivery guy than give me a chance? You brought this on yourself!"With that, he gestured with his finger. "Wake him up!"Black Dog nudged Felix, and he came to."Are you awake now, Felix?"Felix looked at Horace, who was a complete stranger to him. However, what really caught him off guard was seeing Eunice there."My name is Horace Sawyer. Did you really think that getting Yadiel to warn me would be enough to keep you safe? "Watch closely. You're about to witness something unforgettable. In just a moment, your so-called goddess will be on her knees, completely at my mercy. This is the difference between you and me."Eunice's mind was racing. She knew Felix w

What was even stranger was the wooden figure in front of Horace Sawyer. A wooden… puppet? It had a cylinder-shaped head, square-shaped body, and round wooden limbs.Based on how Horace was still sitting on the ground with a horrified look, he was also confused about this. However, Felix sensed that this wooden figure had sprung out of Horace to block his attack! Felix felt like he was in a dream. He felt a terrifying energy coming from this wooden figure—somewhere along the levels of mastery of Transcendent Realm and Grandmaster Realm. What was this? Unless this wooden figure had combat power like that of Cordelia, Felix would not be a tough opponent."Is this a magical treasure?" he asked. This was his only explanation. Otherwise, how could it be in Horace's body and form to protect him?However, magical treasures were rare—how did Horace have such a thing?"Leave now, Eunice. Don't tell anyone about what happened here. Do you understand?" Felix ordered calmly.After placing

"How terrifying… Just a single trace of the soul's consciousness, and it's powerful enough to speak," Felix muttered with a sigh. The previous owner must have been incredibly powerful. After killing Horace, Felix destroyed the entire factory to avoid leaving any clues. Fortunately, Horace had picked a quiet place without any cameras, as he wanted to kill.It was in an alleyway beside the village, so there was less work to clean up. "Wait… Ashton?" Felix suddenly stopped, stunned. The name of the soul's consciousness mentioned seemed to finally register in his mind.As he thought about the terrifying strength, it was truly possible that it was Ashton. "Fuck, Ashton Willis… Isn't he one of the Eight Guardians under the Ancient Sage? Why did he attach so much importance to this small fry? Was he one of his direct descendants?"That had to be the only explanation! There was no other reason otherwise… Now that he had killed Horace, he could only hope that Ashton would find the mu
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1168
In Felix's opinion, even if Ashton found out about Eunice, he would ignore her once he discovered her memories were erased. "Mr. Zeller, Donna will be here soon," Eunice said. Felix nodded and said nothing in return. After tonight, he would leave Notura City, and he wouldn't have any relations with this woman anymore. After all, Horace's death had a lot to do with him.However, Felix didn't like owing anything. He took out a wooden box and handed it to her. "Keep this."Confused, Eunice opened the box and found it was the same pill her grandfather had taken on the plane. She stood up in shock. "Mr. Zeller! This is too valuable—I can't take this."Her grandfather was now completely healthy—even his doctor called to say that it was a miracle and that he couldn't understand it. How could she not know how precious this pill was?To put it frankly, if it was auctioned, it could be sold for billions! What was money for the rich? No amount of money could be worth a life-saving pill!

The guide said, "This is where the selected contestants rest. The yard is huge and has everything you need. As long as you don't leave this yard, you're free to move around. I'll bring you to your room now."The yard looked huge, with fixtures of bridges and flowing rivers. Felix even passed by a fake mountain. It was large enough for hundreds of people to climb, standing thousands of feet tall and looked quite majestically.No one on Earth or Aquamarinus could have built such a luxurious residence. Felix could even see a bar and massage parlor, showing how indispensable technology was in the universe. His room was luxurious, around 2000 square feet, and was decorated with traditional but modern touches. "This is your room. I'll take my leave now, goodbye." The young man left with a bow. Felix turned around and stood on the patio. Outside his room was a large lake, with even fish swimming inside."A new neighbor? Did you just arrive today?" The sudden voice came from the patio

Felix arrived at the location of one of Nine Flames, where the guards instantly collapsed, their eyes rolling back as they fainted.By now, darkness had arrived. He walked forward without any hesitation, his right hand touching the flame.There was no need for any special tools. The flame simply vanished, and only Felix knew that it was absorbed in an instant by his Starmark.With the disappearance of the flames, people in many places immediately dropped to their knees.The light that should have lasted throughout the night vanished, and the darkness of Desolated Lands descended almost instantly. Every light went out in an instant.Screams echoed everywhere, and panic spread like wildfire. Even though their loved ones were close by, they couldn't see them with their eyes and could only communicate through voice.Scenes like this were unfolding in many places, even in Cloud City."It's really started," Eira said. She was in Cloud City. Although Luigi was standing on her left, h

Despite Thiago's murderous glare and overwhelming killing intent, Felix wasn't scared. In fact, it made him smile.Due to the unique trait of the Dragon Rebirth, his opponent had to harbor a true desire to kill him in order for Felix to grow stronger. Otherwise, it would all be meaningless. At least so far, everything was unfolding just as he expected.Meanwhile, Holt was silently praying like crazy as he lay on the ground. The battle had already begun, and his companion had understood his message. This was their only shot, however slim, at killing Felix.As time passed and the afternoon crept past 3:00 pm, his companion started to falter. His attacks were growing sluggish. He hadn't been injured, but he was clearly on the defensive now.Seeing this, Felix completely lost interest. Once his opponent lost the will to kill him, the Dragon Rebirth would no longer grow.Still, the battle wasn't for nothing. He'd made solid progress and was a little closer to becoming a Celestial Realm
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1563
Felix had clearly found Holt's weak spot. These guys were so desperate to extend their lives that they turned the entire Aquamarinus into a breeding ground. Obviously, they were terrified of death. As long as there was even the slightest chance of survival, they'd take it.And sure enough, Holt immediately agreed. He pulled out some kind of device and flew off, clearly contacting his comrades."But even if I agreed," Holt said, "the three of us split up and searched in different directions. Even if they rush over, they won't make it until tomorrow."The fear in his eyes was obvious, so much so that Felix couldn't help but laugh."How interesting," Felix said. "You made a deal with the Ant Queen, right? Couldn't she at least give you something to help you move freely through Desolated Lands at night?"Holt shot him a bitter smile. "The Ant Queen's children—the soldier ants—are born hunters. That instinct can't be erased. And honestly, we've never needed to go out at night anyway."

Lumen flew out and quickly returned. Felix's expression eased completely, and with a step, he vanished from where he stood."Chasing me was fun last time, huh? Did you think it'd go the same this time?" he asked.When he reappeared, someone was already lying on the ground about ten yards ahead. It was a figure fully shrouded in a gray robe, a man named Holt Bovington.That was Felix holding back. Otherwise, Lumen's previous strike could've shattered Holt's soul on the spot."Felix Zeller? It really is you!" Holt's voice was full of shock. Whatever he'd planned to do was already too late. His soul had taken a devastating blow, and he no longer had the strength to fight."Yeah, it's me. Just like I suspected, you people really aren't all that strong when it comes to soul power."Felix had spared his life because he wanted answers."If you answer a few questions honestly, I'll let you live. Even with your soul badly damaged, I assume someone who knows about Nine Flames and Desolate

Three months later, deep within a mountain on Aquamarinus, a meeting was taking place. Who would've imagined palace-like structures hidden within the mountain itself?In one of the chambers, a sky-blue dome adorned the ceiling. Beneath it, three figures in gray robes sat cross-legged, their bodies cloaked in shadow. Their faces were completely obscured."I went to see the Ant Queen yesterday. There's definitely something wrong.""Enough with the vague talk. Be specific.""In just three months, the Ant Queen has lost millions of her children. Do you even understand what that means?"The atmosphere shifted as all three took a sharp breath. A long silence followed before one finally spoke, "Perhaps our earlier theory is right. Is someone hunting soldier ants in Desolated Lands at night?""It has to be. How else do you explain millions of casualties? At this rate, we're down to just a million soldier ants across the entire planet. If this keeps up, they'll be wiped out in a month. An

"I didn't expect you to be a doctor, too. Thanks," Myles said, but then suddenly froze. His mind started racing.Wait a minute! He took down a tiger of True Blood Realm. On top of that, he was extremely skilled in medicine. That could only mean…"You figured out who I am?" Felix asked with a smile, trying to put Myles at ease. Despite that, Myles couldn't hide his fear. "You're Felix Zeller?""That's right. Judging by your reaction, I take it I've become a traitor to The Recovery Association? Or maybe some kind of unforgivable villain?"The air grew a bit awkward, and Myles shot him a strained smile."Not exactly… It's just that you took down the Flame Monarch. That's kind of hard to wrap my head around."His expression shifted again."Actually, everyone's still pretty confused. When we woke up this morning, every city, town, and even the smallest villages received a message. Five days from now, the Flame Monarch is holding a Flame Ceremony."Felix paused, frowning. "What's t

With Lumen and Indigo attacking and the Infinite Shield defending, Felix held his ground. Occasionally, he cast minor spells that barely consumed any soul power. Even as the monsters surged toward him like a tidal wave, not one of them could so much as scratch him.Feeling the steady stream of energy flooding into him, Felix grinned. If things kept going like this, there was a high chance he'd break through to the next major soul realm—Soul Overlord Realm.If he could level up again during the elimination rounds, his odds of winning the whole thing would increase significantly. Especially since Soul Overlord Realm required soul enhancement, it was a whole different league compared to Aetherium Realm.Once he hit Soul Overlord Realm, he was confident he'd be able to go toe-to-toe in a soul battle with the powerful figure who had chased him during dusk.That guy didn't dare appear in Desolated Lands at night, which likely meant his soul wasn't strong. In that case, Felix might actual

The sun had already begun to set. After fleeing in a panic, Felix had no idea if there was even a single place ahead that could shield him from the coming darkness.A few minutes later, the presence chasing him within his domain disappeared. Logically, the pursuer should've caught up in less than ten minutes, but they gave up. Still, Felix didn't relax for a second. The darkness was about to fall, and that could only mean two things. Either the pursuer wasn't confident they could survive the desolate night themselves, or they assumed there was no flame nearby and Felix was as good as dead.Either way, this was the most dangerous moment yet.After sprinting several more miles, Felix finally stopped. All around him stretched a barren wasteland with no end in sight. Even though he had memorized maps to identify different areas, they were useless now. As darkness swallowed the land, all reference points vanished."Damn it! I guess I'll have to see for myself what the hell comes out i
