Semua Bab The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection: Bab 231 - Bab 240

"Refreshing!" Inside a room, Hector and Felix had downed half a bottle of liquor in one go, and the smile on Hector's face grew even wider."It's always the best to drink with you, young man."Felix hadn't expected that the Veilflower Gabriel found was meant for the one and only Warlord of the East. He knew him because of Gerald. He'd met him more than once before. What left Felix speechless was how Gerald casually called him "Hector", as if his prestigious title meant nothing in Gerald's eyes.However, Felix couldn't do the same. He had to show respect by calling him "Mr. Downy". After all, the man was a hero who protected the nation.After hearing Felix's story, Hector furrowed his brows. "Do you need the Veilflower, too? That's going to be tough."The fact that even he found it difficult showed that the other person needing the Veilflower was equally important."Mr. Downy, about that old war hero you mentioned, did he fall ill?" Felix asked.Hector shook his head. "No

"Mr. Zeller, I'm sorry. I'm so useless!" Kneeling on the ground, Stinger looked up at Felix. Felix raised a hand. "You are indeed useless, but taking over a city's underground forces isn't something you can achieve with manpower and ruthlessness alone. You need a powerful person to back you up!"How did Kane manage it? It was all because he held the position of the deputy chief in Dragon Alliance, allowing him to act decisively without overthinking. "Now that things have reached this point, go ahead and do what you need to. I'll be your backer and back you up!"Since he was already involved, Felix wasn't interested in stepping back. People like Stinger could be quite useful in certain situations. Hearing this, Stinger became ecstatic. His hesitation and fear stemmed from lacking strong support. With Kane gone, he couldn't keep relying on him. It would be far too cowardly. With Felix's support, he could finally act without restraint. "Lord Jamison said he'll be here in half an

Just as Felix straightened up, the roar of engines erupted outside, and two military-green vehicles stopped at the gate. Zachary furrowed his brows, as anyone could tell that these were exclusive vehicles of the Phoenix Legion. However, he wondered why the Phoenix Legion had come. That was a question worth pondering.The car doors swung open, and Belle stormed out first, flanked by several armed soldiers."You are suspected of murder and assault, Felix Zeller. You are required to assist in the investigation." Zachary quickly stood up, pulling the elderly man along as he headed outside. With the Phoenix Legion involved, there was no way he could continue to trouble Felix. If he were to fall into their hands, even his father would have no way to rescue him. "You must be quite the arrogant guy, Felix," Zachary thought. "Even the Phoenix Legion is stirred up. It's a pity I can't kill you myself."Unbothered by Zachary's departure, Belle kept her gaze fixed on Felix. "Are you don

Sherlyn sat across from Ernest, fuming and pouting adorably. "Humph! Grandpa, you don't care about me anymore. You're not standing by my side." Ernest, relaxed in demeanor, handed her a cup of coffee. "Do I not care about you? Otherwise, would I have sent Jairo to accompany you? "You're getting more and more mischievous. After all, they're conducting an official operation. Do you think that just because I or your father is involved, they'll let you off unconditionally? What do we need laws for, then?" While she understood his point, Sherlyn was still upset. "I finally managed to come back, and I can only hang around for two days. I was looking forward to having dinner with Felix to bond with him, but the Phoenix Legion intervened. How can I be in a good mood?" Taking a sip of coffee, Ernest said, "You know Felix's situation. Everyone has a breaking point, and I suspect he's about to explode this time. The reason I had you go is to give someone a chance, but it's a shame." Ern

Belle burst out laughing."You're already a prisoner under arrest, and you still think you can kill me? Given my status, don't you know that just saying that is already a crime?"Unfazed, Felix asked, "Since you say I'm going to be sentenced to death, can you tell me why you hate me so much?"Belle's eyes nearly turned red with rage. Crossing her arms, she said, "Why? It's simple. You're not worthy of Ms. Summers. You should have broken off the engagement and gotten lost!"However, you act so high and mighty, as if nothing can truly catch your attention. You rely only on your status as a member of Dragon Alliance and your martial prowess. "Ms. Summers is kind-hearted and doesn't want to go against her grandfather's wishes, so of course I must eliminate obstacles for her. Ms. Summers's future husband should be an outstanding man. You, on the other hand, are nothing!"With that, Belle stormed out. Felix said nothing, only concluding that she was delusional, having completely ima
