Chapter 1007
During that period, Skystream Province’s governor, Zeke, received an invitation from Severin to come over that morning as well.
“Why is Severin asking us to go over? I heard that he’s leaving Skystream City today, so I can’t help but wonder if it’s because he wants us to see him off. Why is he so full of himself when he’s just a county governor?” One of Zeke’s daughters could not help but pout unhappily.
Zeke chuckled and said, “Well, if someone else had asked me to go, I probably wouldn’t even entertain their request at all. But if it’s Severin, then I’d be more than delighted to meet him, even if it’s just to see him off!”
“But why? He’s just a county governor. You’re the province governor, so you are one step above him!” His beautiful daughter remarked begrudgingly.
Zeke smiled again. “You still don’t understand, do you? He’s a second-grade medium-rank alchemist who can refine countless top-grade pills. This shows that he’s close to breaking through to a second-grade high-rank alchemist! But that’s not the point, though. The mere fact that he gave us plenty of pills as a gift on my birthday is a sufficient enough reason for me to see him off.”
The grand-elder smiled and said, “Indeed! We must ensure that we have a good relationship with Severin. If he becomes a second-grade high-rank alchemist in the future, even forces such as the Stormy Moon Sect might wish to get him to join their ranks.”
The second elder shared the same views too. “That’s right. Even a single one of his pills will allow us to add another warrior emperor powerhouse into our ranks. The presence of such an individual in an organization gives them a significant advantage over those who lack such individuals. The combat strength and ability of a level one warrior emperor is about the same as several ninth-rank warrior kings!”
“Let’s go. We ought not to make such a big deal out of it if it turns out that we were called over to see him off. Severin, as the South County’s governor, is a cut above the other three. governors. He has a bright and boundless future ahead of him!” Zeke said earnestly.
Before long, they all arrived at the villa just as the four war gods had left.
“How’s everything so far, Fonzo? I believe your leg is now completely healed?” Zeke asked Fonzo with a smile after leading about a dozen or so people into the villa.
Fonzo immediately got up and greeted him back. “Mister Zeke! What brings you here? If I knew you were coming, I would’ve gone to greet you at the door!”
Zeke chuckled and said, “No need to trouble yourself. Mister Severin asked me to come here because he wanted to see me.”
Fonzo frowned suddenly. “That’s strange. All four of the war gods came here earlier today, and now you’ve come here too. I can’t help but wonder what business all of you might have with Mister Severin.”
