CHAPTER 370
The tasks at the port made Denver feel more and more nervous. After all, if this ceremony were to fail, it’d stop him from overcoming Hawkers one day, which he really wanted to do.Feeling heavy in the heart, he returned to Rose Tower using a movement technique he called Flash Step.This was written in the list of techniques Sheryl made for him, which he had used in the past.“I don’t remember using it, but my body seems to still remember it,” Denver thought. “I don’t feel strange using it.”Denver arrived at the balcony using this technique and startled Catherine from behind.She got a little scared, which made him laugh. “You need to hone your senses using aura.”“I did, back in the caves. Don’t you remember?” she retorted. “I was just focusing on the flight technique, so I didn’t sense you coming.”“If you’re struggling, I can help,” he touched just one of her hairs, but she could feel it.“Sure, since you know my ability, you can tell me your thoughts,” she put her arms on her wai

In Rose Park.Catherine was lying on the ground, huffing and sweating very much. But there was a faint smile on her face.Sheryl looked at the mild cut on her forearm. “You were only able to cut me because I lowered myself to a base level. Don’t forget that.”“Haha,” Catherine laughed. “I’m happy that I progressed even if it’s only a little.”“Don’t be too satisfied, or your growth will freeze,” Sheryl warned. Her forearm injury healed pretty fast.“Whoa, did you take the red pellet?” Catherine asked. “You healed fast.”“No. It’s because of the forest ability I have,” Sheryl replied.“But trees can’t heal, can they?”“Some trees do,” Sheryl said. “Don’t act like you know everything there is to know about trees. There are some plants that eat insects, and then there are some monstrous vines that even devour wild beasts and any passerby. If you underestimate them just because they can’t scream or don’t look intimidating, you're going to suffer in the future.”“Thanks for your advice,” C
CHAPTER 368
Leo Adler left the house with a positive impression on Diane, which was exactly what she wanted.“He didn’t say goodbye, but he at least smiled,” Diane thought as she waved him goodbye. “This is a good start.”After Leo left, she locked the door so that Jamie wouldn’t tell her to go out.“What does your son do, Uncle?” Diane asked Jamie.“Save your energy. Leo stopped loving after his lover died.”“Oh, no. How did she die?”“He killed her.”Diane’s heart shook for a second. “W-What?”Jamie put the empty tea cup down. “She acted like she loved him, then stole his money and ran away. He was going to let her go, but then he found out that she also cheated on him. So, he tracked her down and killed her by stuffing all the dollar bills she stole down her throat.”Diane swallowed her breath. “I-Isn’t that true cruel?” Just thinking about a person dying from having cash stuffed in their mouth sent shivers down Diane’s spine.“She wanted the money, and he made it so that she could take it to
CHAPTER 367
In the morning, a piece of news was announced by the council.When the news reached Sheryl, she was quite disturbed by it. “R-Rankers Festival? Why now of all times?”“Why are you sweating?” Catherine asked. “Is it bad for us?”“It isn’t just a festival. Anyone from any group can compete with anybody,” Sheryl said. “A non-ranker can challenge a ranker, and even a ranker can also challenge a non-ranker. Refusing a challenge for a ranker means he’ll lose his position in the rankers. A non-ranker, on the other hand, will lose his rights to ever becoming a ranker if he refuses a challenge. Even those who aren’t part of the king’s blood must participate.”Catherine’s eyes widened. “It definitely sounds scary, but it’s only one fight, right?”Sheryl exhaled audibly. “No, one person can be challenged ten times in a day. And the festival goes on for a fortnight.”Catherine was stunned. “Y-You mean fourteen days?! What the hell kind of a festival lasts that long?”Sheryl’s jaw hardened. “The l
CHAPTER 366
In Lumia town.Diane finished eating breakfast in a hotel and then came to Jamie’s house.She knocked on the door multiple times. “Can you hear me? I’m so hungry. Please open the door. Let me inside. Or I’m going to starve to death! I’ve already cleaned the front yard. What more do you want me to do?!”No matter how much she begged or yelled, the door wasn’t opened.“Should I break this damn door and force myself in?” Diane gnashed her teeth.[Don’t make such a stupid mistake.] Sandy warned her. [If he gets angry, you could even lose your life.]“Tsk, then what can I do? Do you want me to waste my time here?” she barked. “Help me with a good idea, you asswiper!”“Who are you?” A voice came from behind her.She turned around.A tall man with dark brown hair was staring at her with an unwelcoming gaze. He had an eagle tattoo on the back of his right hand. He looked to be in his mid thirties.Whether it be looks wise or dressing wise, he was near-perfect.“Don’t you know that it’s manner
CHAPTER 365
The next morning.Denver hadn’t slept through the night as he was busy healing himself.Thanks to the healing methods Sheryl prepared for him, he was able to slightly move his fingers now.“The cooling energy of the atmosphere, she said,” Denver smiled.He briefly remembered the time he clashed with Ingrid and used an opportunity to slip through space and dodge Ingrid’s attack.“When I was jumping through that space, I briefly felt as if I was jumping into someone’s eye,” he thought. “It appeared as if the earth itself is shaped like an eye. It was a weird imagery. But it might hold something key to realizing more about the depths of the supernatural state of the world we live in. I might have a breakthrough in my spiritual aura, too.“I need to read more about spiritual aura, but the books related to it are found in the Hawk Library, which is owned by the council. I don’t have a good relationship with it. There’s no way they’re going to let me read the books I want. Will any other ra
