The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection

Felix chuckled. "You're a grown man, yet you're still hung up on things like this! Not just anyone can be my follower. Sure, some might see you as cowardly or disloyal, but I've always believed people can change. So stop worrying about how others see you, and even more so about how I do."

Felix tossed a pill over. "This is a new formula I developed. It's designed to boost the strength of those who mastered Blood Realm. Give it a try."

"What?" Selmer quickly caught the pill. It turned out Felix hadn't forgotten about him after all. "Thank you, Mr. Zeller! Thank you!"

In truth, Felix had created this pill a while ago. However, he wasn't sure of its effects or whether it might even be harmful. So he hadn't dared to let Selmer use it. However, after the success of the Windseeker Pill during his mission in Guneria, Felix was confident that the medical text's descriptions were accurate.

Even the most basic pills from the text could enhance the strength of warriors who were already considered elite by modern standards. It showed just how valuable traditional medicine was. With these resources, Felix was convinced that building a formidable army was only a matter of time.noveldrama

On his way to the clinic, Felix made a call. After several rings, the line was finally answered.

"Who's this?" the other party asked.

"Surely you haven't forgotten my voice already, Mr. Walter?" Felix hummed.

The person on the other end was Stamford from Skyward Guild, who had previously reached out to Felix. "It's... it's you, the Dragon Knight! How could I possibly forget your voice?"

In reality, Stamford was sweating bullets. He knew Felix had returned to the country three days ago. That only confirmed the man Skyward Guild had dispatched to Guneria must have perished. That was no ordinary man either-he was someone who mastered True Blood Realm. Yet, they had failed to eliminate Felix. However, Felix wasn't demanding an explanation, which left Stamford on edge. "Let's not beat around the bush," Felix said flatly. "Tell Terry to explain himself

within a week. If not, don't blame me for what happens next."

With that, he hung up.

Felix didn't intend to pick a fight with Skyward Guild. At least, not yet. As the largest sect in the country, they boasted several men who mastered the True Blood Realm. Charging in alone would be suicide. For now, he would bide his time and see how they responded.

The same went for the Greene family. Though they crossed a line, Felix wasn't ready to face them head-on. Patience was his only option for now.

When Felix arrived at the clinic, he immediately noticed the peculiar atmosphere. Melissa stood frozen against the wall. Even when she saw Felix, she didn't greet him, but instead kept gesturing with her eyes. Inside, Xena was facing off with Nala. Though neither spoke, the tension was thick.

"Who would've thought a mighty queen would be reduced to an assistant in a tiny clinic? How amusing.", Xena smirked.

Nala wasn't about to back down. "Right back at you. The famed Phoenix Warlord is spending time in this unremarkable clinic! How ironic."

For some reason, Xena's frustration grew at the thought of Nala spending time with Felix.

Finally, she turned her gaze sharply to Felix "Felix, would you make the decision now if I told you to?"
