"What are you talking about?" Sherlyn pouted. "My grandfather truly has something important to discuss with you."Felix sighed, deciding to be direct with her. He genuinely didn't want her to waste her time on him. "Sherlyn, you deserve better happiness. Don't waste your time on me."Unexpectedly, Sherlyn wasn't angry. Instead, she smiled and said, "Don't worry. If I ever feel there's no hope at all, I'll leave. A woman's intuition is quite accurate, you know."Since she had made up her mind, what else could Felix do?Just then, footsteps sounded again, and Felix stood up quickly. To his surprise, even Sherlyn's father, Isaac, was there. It seemed that this matter wasn't a simple one. However, what could Felix possibly help with? After all, to everyone else, he was just an ordinary person now. He had no plans to reveal that he had regained his strength as his current situation was rather nice."Hello, Mr. Holt Senior and Mr. Holt."After the three of them sat down, Isaac broke

Just as Ernest finished speaking, a loud, grumbling voice came from inside the room."Ernest! Who are you calling an old man?"The voice sounded robust, hardly like that of a sick person. Ernest put on an embarrassed smile. The man was, after all, his old superior. His rebukes were warranted.As Felix passed Nala, he ignored her entirely. However, he had already picked up on something–the relationship between Lionel and Nala wasn't an ordinary one. Given the way Ernest spoke to her, they might even be family."If Ernest hadn't brought you, I wouldn't even let you set foot inside this door, Felix!" Nala's gaze was impassive, but her disdain was palpable. She wasn't one to be swayed by emotions, but the incident with the Walsh family had infuriated her. Although the agreement with the Walsh family still stood, it grated on her that someone she had labeled as useless dared flaunt himself in her presence. Had he come to curry favor with Shadowdragon Warlord using his past ties with

How could that be possible? Hadn't Felix lost his martial abilities? Silas personally confirmed it, and she had been there to witness it. However, just one month later, he had not only regained his strength but also ascended to the Innate Realm."Very impressive, young man. It's remarkable that you reached the Innate Realm at such a young age!" Lionel chuckled, clearly impressed. It made him even happier, especially because Felix was a patriot.Nala, her expression conflicted, shot Felix a hard look before turning and leaving the room. Since he had reached the Innate Realm, it was clear that his medical skills had not only returned but likely surpassed his previous level. She couldn't possibly continue to argue."Did you ever refine a specific bone, My Lord?" Felix asked once they were alone in the wooden house.Lionel's gaze shifted instantly. "Can you detect that bone's presence? Felix nodded. "Yes, and I'm certain that your current condition was caused by that bone."In fact,

As days passed, Nala never left. She would only enter the wooden house after Felix had finished his treatments. Over time, Felix also discovered the presence of an elderly person living somewhere nearby. This person only appeared during mealtimes, bringing them food. Felix figured he was likely there to protect Lionel.On the fourth day, after finishing his treatment, Felix stepped outside and saw someone approaching."Zara?" he called out.Felix was surprised. He hadn't expected to see Zara here at such a time and place. Her face, as always, could only be described as unattractive."Felix!" Clearly, Zara was equally stunned to run into him here. But the next moment, she quickly looked away. "My… my mentor told me not to speak to you."If it hadn't been for this reminder, Felix would've forgotten about the conversation with Silas and the promise he had made.At that moment, Nala appeared, and Zara hurriedly spoke up. "Lady Nala, this is a new medicine my mentor developed. It ca

In a karaoke center in Canraville, Felix sat alone in the private room, surprised that Jack hadn't arrived yet. He thought to himself, "What a flaky guy."He took a moment to assess himself, and a smile spread across his face. His strength had once again increased since he had two pieces of Dragonspine in his body. Honestly, Felix felt like he was dreaming. Because of this, his fascination with the Dragonspine deepened, but he also had one lingering concern in his mind.After thinking it through, and since Jack and Vanessa hadn't shown up yet, Felix got up and walked to the lounge area in the center's main hall. He then dialed the strange number from before.Perhaps because of Lionel, Gerald answered his call after a few rings. "Did you succeed?""Yes, Mr. Hoffman. You might not believe it, but I found out the true cause of Lionel's condition."Gerald scolded him immediately, "Drop the suspense, you little brat. Tell me right now!"Felix couldn't help but chuckle. So Gerald was
