The King Of Warriors novel (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 628

Upon being ridiculed by Melanie, Jared felt so ashamed of himself. What was regarded as a child's play to the others was unknown to him.

“I can understand how you feel and your strong desire to know all these things. Trust me, you'll find the answers to all of your questions very soon. As for who she is, I'll have to tell you a long story...”

Rayleigh pointed at Melanie and began to narrate an old tale.

From their interactions, Jared could tell that Rayleigh treated Melanie as his own child.

He found out that Melanie was actually an orphan adopted by Rayleigh. When she grew up, Rayleigh learned that she had an innate ability to control people's minds through casting spells and sorcery charms.

Although she was an energy cultivator, she knew nothing else besides charming others. She did not even know the basics of gathering energy. In other words, any martial artist could easily take Melanie on and defeat her if she did not possess any charming ability.

Jared finally realized that the fearful expression shown on Melanie's face when Gavin cornered her was a true reflection of her emotion then. She did not fake it.

At that thought, he felt rather sorry for his own action.

Rayleigh asked, “Do you think that an energy cultivator will surely be better than a martial artist or a mage? That the former is a cut above the rest?”

Absolutely! Jared nodded.

Rayleigh smiled. “Actually, there's no difference between a cultivator, martial artist, and a mage. The only difference is the title of their rank. You're a cultivator now, but if you fight with a Martial Arts Grandmaster, they can easily beat you to a pulp with just one finger. So, do you still think that a cultivator is any better than a martial artist? Then again, the sky's the limit for a cultivator. There are endless possibilities and potential for one because the end goal is to become immortal. That's the ultimate dream for all cultivators.”

When Rayleigh mentioned the word “immortal,” there was a sparkle in his eyes, filled with all of his hopes and dreams.

He had longed to become one.
