The news had spread far and wide. The calm sea was bustling with activity.
A new disciple of Mystic Fire Guild was about to be born!
This news made many people's hearts throb.
Other than that, a large group of ambitious youths also took the risk. Far away in the dark forest area in the corner of the East Continent, there was a dense fog. Some of the trees had already rotted, becoming a breeding ground for fungi in the forest, gradually disintegrating.
Ronald sat down on the sofa and stretched himself comfortably.
"Please have breakfast, my lord." Gina floated toward him. She was dressed like a princess, and she was as beautiful as one. Her shoulders were bare, and she had a voluptuous figure.
Perhaps it was due to Ronald's care that Gina's figure became even more devilish than ever. Furthermore, her face was rosy and her skin had become even more delicate.
"All right." Ronald rose from the sofa and joined Gina at the table.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
Suddenly, someone banged on the castle door.
Gina looked at the door and used her wind elemental power to float over. She held an umbrella in her hand, looking very adorable.
Creak!
The door opened, and Alpha and Delta's faces were filled with excitement, panting heavily. Behind them, Blake's figure appeared.
After a week of recuperation, Blake's injuries were almost completely healed, leaving only a shallow scar without any after effects.
It was for this reason that Delta became even more excited. Every day, he thought about how he could please Ronald and be his follower.
"Brother Ronald." Blake had a smile and sharp teeth. No matter how he looked at it, he looked like a devil with ill intentions.
"What brings you guys here?" Ronald was a little surprised as he looked at the three of them and asked with a smile.
"My lord, there is news that has been spreading throughout the continent recently," Delta said with a fawning expression.
"News? Is it related to me?" Ronald asked in surprise.
Hearing that, Alpha nodded and said, "My lord, you may not know, but this news is about to spread across the entire continent. Almost everyone is talking about your name."
"What is it?" Ronald could not help but ask. He believed that he had not done anything major in the past week.
Apart from the battle with Blake, there was almost nothing else that he could remember. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be news about him on the continent.
But now, for some reason, the entire continent was in an uproar? Presumably, it had nothing to do with his actions.
"Mystic Fire Guild sincerely invites you to become one of the new Seven Disciples." Delta hurried to report.
Immediately, Alpha shot a disgruntled look at Delta and said nothing more. He should have been the one to announce it, but this damn guy beat him to it.
Ever since Ronald displayed such terrifying swordsmanship and healing abilities, Alpha and Delta had become competitors, fighting for the right to follow behind him.
However, this was only their own wishful thinking. The two of them were fighting intensely like a raging fire.
"Seven Disciples of Mystic Fire Guild?" A hint of surprise appeared on Ronald's face. He immediately smiled faintly and said, "I'm not interested in anything like that. Whoever wants to be one can take my place. I won't get involved in this mess."
"Huh?" Even Blake was stunned. He was once one of the Seven Disciples, so he knew very well that as one of them, there was nothing to lose.
Other than asking him to take action when the continent was in turmoil, there were no other requirements. However, the situation on the continent had already stabilized, and a great upheaval was rarely seen in almost a hundred years.
Therefore, basically, being one of the Seven Disciples did not need him to put in too much effort for the East Continent. Not only that, but he would also obtain the authority of the East Continent, so why not?
At the very least, Blake could use his authority as one of the past Mystic Fire's Seven Disciples to do whatever he wanted in Black Forest. Moreover, he wouldn't be noticed by the East Continent. No matter how many people died here, the East Continent would turn a blind eye.
"My lord, aren't you going to consider it?" Delta was a little surprised and asked.
"There's nothing to consider. I can get whatever the Seven Disciples can. Why should I have anything to do with Mystic Fire Guild?" Ronald smiled calmly.
What authority could the Seven Disciples of Mystic Fire Guild bestow upon him? What could these powers do? He could do all of this by relying on himself, and he didn't need to rely on the authority of Mystic Fire Guild at all. Not to mention that he had enmity with their guild. So, why would he need to make an unnecessary move to cooperate with them?
"Brother Ronald is right," Blake said with a smile.
He felt a sense of oppression as he stood in front of Ronald. How could someone who could heavily injure him covet the power of the Seven Disciples? This was a joke! As long as Ronald wanted it, he could do it with his terrifying strength.
"You're my lord, indeed. You don't even want the name of the Seven Disciples." Alpha immediately gave a fawning smile.
"My lord, should we spread some news and let the people of Mystic Fire Guild know that you don't want to become one of the Seven Disciples? But if that's the case, Mystic Fire Guild will make a move on you.
"After all, you don't want to become one of the Seven Disciples and that means that you don't want to join their guild. This way, Mystic Fire Guild and even the East Continent's royal family can't sit by and do nothing." Delta thought for a moment and said with slight worry.
Indeed! In reality, Mystic Fire Guild had given Ronald two options.
The first was to become one of the Seven Disciples. Then, everyone would live in harmony.
The second option was to refuse becoming one of the Seven Disciples. As long as Ronald refused, the people from Mystic Fire Guild and even the East Continent's royal family would naturally think about the worst-case scenario.
Refusing to become one of the Seven Disciples meant becoming enemies with them.
As such, Mystic Fire Guild naturally wouldn't treat Ronald too well. It was even possible for them to send people to kill him as soon as possible.
"Do I need to be afraid?" Ronald could not help but smile lightly. He said calmly, "Even if all the experts of the East Continent come, do you think that I will lose to them? If they dare to come, then be prepared and groom them again."
Silence!
Alpha and Delta were both stunned by Ronald's bold words. Even Blake had to admit that he himself did not have the courage to do so!
Even in the face of the entire East Continent, his fearless spirit was deeply admirable.
From these words, it could be seen that Ronald was confident in his own strength!
Blake smiled as he recalled the scene of being heavily injured by Ronald. He would always feel especially secure with such a strong person as his neighbor.
"My lord, you are strong, so you are naturally unafraid of them." Alpha and Delta looked at each other and then at Ronald with eyes full of admiration.
