Khan was surprised to see such a straightforward man. He had always hated the roundabout way of human interaction, so he was pleasantly surprised to find Philip otherwise. He did not hate humans in general, just those who had twisted personalities and evil intentions. Those people were a great danger to monster beasts. Many people liked to hunt monster beasts for fun or kill to get their inner cores to improve their strength. There were many ways to improve one’s strength, and killing monster beasts to get their inner cores was the worst option. However, he was also aware that beasts killed each other too, just like humans. The friends Aslan brought to escort them back were pretty good, and Khan was happy. After seeing Philip, he felt that maybe things were different from what he imagined. Philip’s mannerisms surprised Khan. There were many people in their group. Fortunately, Philip had many houses too. “Let’s get you settled down first. The villa behind us is for you,” P
The kid frowned at the sight of Khan’s frantic look. “What's so precious about these pills? If you want them, just take them. Don’t disturb us from having our class.” His understatement completely destroyed Khan's outlook on life. “What’s wrong with kids nowadays? They don’t even care for precious pills like these and treat them like jelly beans. Hehe, since you want to give them to me, then don’t regret it!” He carefully put all the pills into his pocket, afraid of ruining them. Aslan could hardly hold his head up. He thought having such a family was something to be proud of, but these people were simply embarrassing him right now. “Everyone, please behave yourselves and don’t embarrass me!” Aslan rushed out in exasperation, trying to stop his father. Khan smacked him, almost knocking him into the wall. “Dad, you can tell me if you want more pills. I can give you as many as you want! You’re embarrassing me by taking the pills from these kids!” Aslan took out a handfu
Aslan only recalled that he had a storage ring after Khan mentioned it. “Do you like this storage ring very much?” Aslan glanced at his father curiously. “Dad, don’t you even have a storage ring after being around for so many years? What a failure. I got one not long after I wandered out!” Aslan mocked his father. The others laughed at Aslan’s provocation. Khan clenched his fists, wishing he could beat up this unruly son. Aslan was simply asking for a beating for saying such things in public. Aslan did not show him any respect as the king of the monster beasts! “Dad, if you like it, let me give you one each.” Aslan expressed his opinion before Khan could speak. No one could call themselves a member of the villa without this standard equipment. Besides, such things were just a byproduct of the kids’ daily practice, and they could have as many as they wanted. Even if they wore one on each finger, there would be enough storage rings to go around. Aslan even felt he could b
Sure enough, the other monster beasts were caught by horror and disbelief after getting the rings too. They checked their rings with pride, excited to get a storage ring. This thing was so rare that they had not seen one before, but they received one so effortlessly now. Khan excitedly grabbed Aslan, who was caught off guard and almost stumbled. “Tell me how you got these rings!” Khan wished he could get into Aslan's mind and find out the truth. Aslan shrugged and said, “The kids made the rings, and that’s their teacher.” Aslan pointed to Philip, leaving Khan in disbelief. He never dreamed that these things belonged to Philip. “How can you own so many storage rings at such a young age, and how can your people make these things?” Khan asked in confusion. Khan was not interested in the smithing technique. After all, monster beasts were unable to make pills or weapons by nature. He was just curious about Philip’s background which allowed him to develop his force so lavishl
Aslan nodded. It was all thanks to Philip. He was very lucky to have Philip teach him. “I'm different from them. They learn really fast, but I can only make a little progress with Philip teaching me step by step. In fact, this is my limit. Philip suggested that I should forget about alchemy, but I think I did good enough for a monster beast.” Philip was not aware that monster beasts could not make pills. He simply thought Aslan was not cut out for it. Usually, Philip only had to guide them a little for them to improve by leaps and bounds. Aslan, on the other hand, required his personal guidance to master the technique. As a monster beast that could breathe fire, Aslan could not even control fire properly! Philip went to great lengths to teach Aslan how to make pills and finally gave up. Aslan simply had no talent for it and would be better off just being a bodyguard. After Khan received Aslan’s affirmation, he turned to Philip with blazing eyes. “Everything is like a dream!
Philip shrugged and asked someone to invite Elijah over to give Khan a surprise. When Elijah appeared, Khan almost had a mental breakdown. Since Elijah was here, it meant he was at his wit's end and came here for help. “You look familiar. You should be that kid from back then. Don't tell me...” Khan said in despair. Elijah nodded in embarrassment. He had met Khan on several occasions. However, he was very young back then, so he did not expect Khan to have an impression of him. Khan was dejected by Elijah’s response. He turned to Philip and forgot all about alchemy. Everyone would perish if this matter was not handled well. “I don’t know what to do, but I've joined forces with all the major guilds to deal with those creatures together.” Elijah knew that Mistral Temple was not as strong as before, but with Philip's help, he managed to gather many forces together. They could play a big role at critical moments. Khan nodded helplessly. He was not very confident about joinin
Philip handed a storage ring to Aslan and asked him to distribute some things. “Give these pills to everyone. We’re likely to face various dangers from now on. It’s important to restore our strength quickly.” There were various pills to heal injuries, restore energy, and improve their strength. Philip also prepared a lot of herbs for them. Compared to people from Mistral Temple, the monster beasts were more of his own. Seeing this, Aslan was excited and knew what Philip was up to. “Don’t worry, Philip. Leave it to me!” Philip simply nodded. Aslan took his father and the others to the room, leaving Elijah behind. Elijah knew that Philip had given them a great opportunity. He wanted to request for the same but stopped at the thought of his identity. Philip had given him enough weapons, and it was already a great favor. There was no need for him to request more. “You can tell them more about the sealed land when you have time and discuss with the other guilds to find a way
Alton scowled. Who was not having a hard time? “Have you heard of Treasure House?” Mark asked worriedly. He wanted to seek Alton’s help to get rid of Treasure House. However, Mark had no idea who stood behind Treasure House, so he could not help but worry. He was guarded against such an unfamiliar force. Alton glanced at Mark with a glint in his eyes. He was just about to seek Mark’s cooperation to deal with Treasure House, but Mark turned up at his door first. In that case, he would speak his mind. “Treasure House isn't only going to increase the popularity of my city, but it can also drive economic development here. Why do you think I should help you?” Alton spoke directly, obviously asking for benefits. “Bijou Parlor has always been sharing long-term profits with you. Once our business is affected, your profit will drop significantly too. It won’t be that easy to find someone to treat your son by then,” Mark said. Mark was quite confident that Alton would remain on h
