The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor

"He couldn't have cheated," said Nash. "This guy is that strong, there's no doubt about that. If he hadn't been there, I would've been able to get third place.

"Yet, I was pushed out of it because he was there, which means the results are right. This is reality, and you have to accept it even if you don't want to!"Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

With how Rudeus was at that moment, even if Rudeus accepted that Fane managed to get first place, Rudeus would not accept that Fane was powerful. He would even say that the leaders from the other two continents were just too weak.

Nash's words halted Rudeus' thoughts. Rudeus might not know how strong the rest of them were, but he knew very well how skilled Nash was, yet Nash only got fourth place!

There was a big gap between Nash and the other three. In truth, Rudeus was just a hair stronger than Nash. With that comparison, Rudeus could more or less tell.

When the others heard what was said, they slowly began to accept that Fane was just that skilled. Rudeus' whole body trembled as Nash reached out to pull Rudeus back.

He could not allow Rudeus to stay. No one would know if Rudeus would snap.

Fane raised an eyebrow, not wanting to bother interacting with them too much. He walked away from the center where the most important alchemists were and headed back to his corner.

At that moment, Rudy and Aaron stood upright excitedly.

The one person who could accept that Fane had gotten first place the most was Rudy. Before Fane even entered, Rudy was already sure that Fane would get good results.

The truth proved to be just as he thought, and in fact, it was even better than Rudy had thought. Fane got first place and a golden treasure!

Aaron no longer knew what to say. Even his expressions were a little twisted as he finally understood Rudy's strange behavior and words from earlier.

Rudy's confidence in Fane was not

baseless. In fact, Rudy knew that

Fane was that good, hence his confidence. After Aaron understood that, he took a deep breath as Ke viewed Fane as though he

There had been six groups prior, and 60 incredibly skilled alchemists had entered. Not a single one of them had gotten a golden treasure, but the man in front of him did. His results were even quite a lot better than the second and third place.

Fane was an absolute monster in Aaron's eyes.

Fane waved at the two of them and sat them down. He retrieved his mat from his storage space and sat in his old spot.

They were still at the fringe of the inner city, but thanks to Fane, the corner had attracted the attention of all alchemists present. Everyone looked in their direction and constantly talked.

Fane did not even need to think to know what they were talking about. They were shocked at his skill and curious about where he came from. 1

Fane did not care about any of that at all. As long as all of them kept to themselves and did not challenge him, they could say what they wanted to.

Rudy lowered his voice and laughed. "It looks like this wasn't hard to you at all!"

Fane furrowed his eyebrows,

shaking his head after thinking about it. "I can't say that it wasn't hard; it's difficult in its own right. It was just that it was easier for me than it was for everyone else."
