Chapter 134

ผู้เขียน: Dreamy Fire
James wasn't someone who stood out. In school, he kept a low profile. It was unexpected for him to become wealthy. As expected, no one could predict one's fate.

Since they used to be classmates, the pretense of a class reunion was the most appropriate setting. If Jack had invited James alone, there would have been a high probability that he would have been rejected as they weren't close friends in school. There would be nothing he could do about it.

As time passed, their high school classmates entered one by one. Of course, all they engaged in was small talk. The people who had successful lives would take the initiative to speak up and ask about other people's work as well as questions about status and wealth.

At last, James arrived. He came together with a classmate, Harvey Johnson, who was known as Gray. His hair color was gray, which was why he acquired such a nickname. When Felix saw Harvey pulling the chair for James, he guessed that Harvey was like a minion to him.

    Upon hearing James say that, everyone understood the situation. No wonder Harvey made things difficult for Felix the moment he entered the room. It turned out they were doing it on purpose. They didn't hide the fact that they were targeting Felix at all.Jack narrowed his eyes and stared at James. "Before making Felix leave, I want to know how he has offended you."Felix was silent because he knew what Jack's temperament was."Do you remember the most beautiful woman in our class back then? She was my crush, but Felix was her boyfriend for two years. I've been holding onto this grudge for a long time."When Felix heard that answer, his expression became strange, let alone the others. Was this considered a grudge? What a joke. Just because James couldn't get the woman he wanted as his girlfriend, he didn't allow anyone to date her either? As expected, Jack chuckled because he was furious."Just because of that? It has already been so many years."However, James remained serious. "

    Felix didn't have a choice, so he sent Wendy a message and had her act as his girlfriend. What did that mean? She had always wanted to be his girlfriend, and now, her dream had come true. Even though it was just an act, she was satisfied with it."Wendy, come and take a seat."It was only then that everyone else returned to their senses. Wendy was very beautiful and had a great demeanor. Who would have thought that Felix's girlfriend was such an excellent woman?"Nice to meet everyone."Wendy greeted everyone before sitting beside Felix obediently. James had gone to the restroom, and Harvey was feeling unhappy about the situation's development. He couldn't believe that Felix was still showing off. He felt that Felix was going too far to support his lie.Besides, why would such a woman like Felix? It didn't matter, though. Something great would happen soon."Felix, your girlfriend is so beautiful. Is she an actress you hired temporarily?"Without sparing Harvey a glance, Felix sa

    Jack was dumbfounded. He didn't expect Felix to have such a wealthy girlfriend. Since James was the one who said it, it was most likely the truth. Upon hearing what James said, Felix smiled."If you don't fulfill your promise, you'll pay a huge price one day."Since James had openly challenged Felix, he was no longer frightened. He snorted and said, "I'll wait for you to make me pay the price!"Once James left, the private room fell into complete silence. After all, no one could be themselves when they were dining with the daughter of the Kinsley family."Jack, I have something to do, so I'll be taking my leave now. You guys can continue."Felix knew that the atmosphere would continue, thus he got up and left with Wendy. "Alright. Go ahead," Jack said.Jack was sincerely happy for Felix to be able to have such a girlfriend. It seemed that he had misunderstood the latter. The Range Rover must belong to Felix. It didn't matter who paid for it anymore."Thank you."After exiting

    "Our general manager has something to do last minute and has returned to the company. He told me to apologize to you sincerely," Joshua said.Upon hearing that, Xena got up. "Joshua, if you want to gain a high status, then don't play tricks. If you play tricks, you'll only suffer losses."Xena was the first goddess of war in Dragonia. How dare a mere general manager of Stellar Group deceive her? What a laughable situation it was. After listening to what Joshua said, she already knew his true motive. How could she continue to stay in the private room?A few minutes later, Belle entered the private room and looked at Joshua's dark expression. Helplessly, she said, "Look. I've already told you that Ms. Summers is extremely smart and that your trick won't work on her. Do you understand the consequences of your actions now?"Joshua clenched his fists. Then, all of a sudden, he smiled. "If so, I can only show my true value. Otherwise, it'll be impossible for me to ask her out to a meal a

    Looking at how proud James was, Felix couldn't help but interrupt him. "I'm listening."James snorted and acted prouder than ever. "You're unknowledgeable and think that the Kinsley family controls Avesburgh. In actuality, there are a few hidden affluent families that truly control the ins and outs of Avesburgh. And I'm the relative of one of the affluent families. Are you afraid now?"Felix's expression became strange. That explanation would make sense for James was so arrogant. "What a coincidence! I happen to know someone from one of the affluent families you mentioned. Since everyone's here, I should let you meet each other."Then, Felix pointed at a Porsche 911 that was nearby and made a gesture with his finger. He didn't say anything."Felix! Just admit that you're afraid. If you're a man, just admit it. Who are you trying to deceive?"When Harvey had just finished shouting, the door of Porsche 911 opened. After that, a woman got out of the car and slowly walked over to them

    When Felix heard that, he said without stopping in his tracks, "Of course, I'm curious. But it depends on you whether or not you want to tell me about it." Dora pouted. It was the first time she met such a man like Felix, but she couldn't do anything since he was very powerful."I hate you. You're no fun at all. I'm sure my findings will shock you. But even if you treat me in this manner, I'll still tell you about it. I want you to have a taste of knowing who the enemy is but can't take action."Upon hearing that, Felix couldn't help but turn to look at Dora. "Are you saying that even you can't do anything to the mastermind?"Dora nodded without hiding the hatred in her eyes. "That's right! That guy has a great support. I can't deal with him. Otherwise, my family will be in trouble. Besides, I don't have sufficient evidence."After standing in the same spot and thinking for a while, Felix chuckled and shook his head. "I think I know who it is. It's Ted Glover, isn't it?"Dora wi

    Felix's expression turned rather peculiar when he heard those words. He did not reproach Dora for playing both sides. Instead, he was surprised that Xena would come all the way here because of him. Had she discovered something? "I don't plan on causing trouble for anyone. After all, I'm a law-abiding citizen." Xena furrowed her brows. She stared at Felix for a long while before speaking again. "That's for the best. You know very well how unworthy you are. You think I came here because I was worried about your safety? You're wrong! If it weren't for your contribution in finding the Grimflower last time, I wouldn't care about you at all." She turned and took a few steps, then looked back. "People like you need to know their place. Living an unsatisfactory life should be the least of your worries. If you lose your life, you won't even have the chance to regret it." Felix smiled as he watched the car drive away. "It's better if you think that way." He went to the neighboring v

    "Nice to meet you, Mr. Holt Senior." "Well, well. Yvonne, you're quite a beauty with great poise. And to have Felix cook such a feast for you! Seems like you two have quite a special relationship." For some reason, Yvonne seemed flustered. "You must be joking, Mr. Holt Senior. Felix and I are just friends. His grandfather helped support me in the past." After Yvonne finished explaining, Ernest sighed. "No wonder Felix has such strong values. It runs in the family." The meal went smoothly. Ernest left early, as if knowing he should give the two young people some time alone. As soon as he stepped out, he called Sherlyn. "Grandpa." "My dear granddaughter, you have competition. Though I'm not sure of her exact background, in looks and other aspects, she's only slightly behind you." Sherlyn pouted. "Humph! Don't you have confidence in your precious granddaughter, Grandpa? As long as Felix isn't married, I still have a chance. But hearing you say that, I think I need to speed u

    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

    When Eira and Luigi saw that Felix was determined to go through with it, they moved instantly. Appearing right in front of him, they dropped to their knees."Please, Felix! For the sake of all those innocent lives, stop.""If you're really set on taking this flame, then kill us first."Seeing the two of them so resolute, Felix hesitated. The lives of hundreds of thousands—maybe even millions—now hung in the balance, all dependent on one decision from him."I haven't known you for long," Eira continued. "But from the way you avenged the 200 people of Innswood Village, I know you're not someone who kills without reason. You'd never turn a blind eye to the lives of ordinary people. "Please show them mercy. They've already suffered enough."Tears streamed down her face. The purpose of The Recovery Association was clear—overthrow the Flame Monarch, destroy the Nine Flames, and return Aquamarinus to what it once was. However, when it came to principles and morals, they were unwaveri

    Felix thought that Gerald's advice really was spot-on. If he hadn't achieved Extreme Mastery, he could still beat the Flame Monarch. However, his subsequent journey would have been difficult. Winning first place in the Rank-Ascending Competition to protect Earth would've been almost impossible.With a casual wave of Felix's hand, the Flame Monarch collapsed to the ground. Thankfully, no one was around to see it. Otherwise, they'd have been scared out of their minds.The most powerful being on Aquamarinus, the Flame Monarch, just got instantly wiped out by Felix. To Felix, it was like crushing an ant and required no effort at all."It's time to complete the mission," Felix said.Just like that, he vanished. His speed was insane because Nine Flames were all scattered far apart. Since travel was banned at night, he couldn't afford to waste even a second.Honestly, he was curious what it would be like to go out at night. However, after thinking it over, he decided it just wasn't worth

    Under the sunlight, Innswood Village looked even lonelier. If it weren't for Felix standing in the open field, the place would've looked like a dead town. Soon, a sound broke through the silent air. A person stood 30 feet in front of Felix. It was the Flame Monarch, whom Felix had met once."I really thought you were a member of The Recovery Association and that you'd laid a trap here. But it turns out, you're really alone."Felix replied, "I am a member of The Recovery Association, but why do I need a trap to kill you?"Oh? A member of The Recovery Association? The Flame Monarch smiled. "You're really brave, you know. You're the first person in Aquamarinus who dares to face me like this. Even the leader of The Recovery Association had been in seclusion, trying to reach Heavenly Realm before facing me."I don't know where you get your confidence from."Initially, Felix wanted to attack immediately. But he still had questions to ask. "There are only the two of us here. Sinc
