Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian) novel Chapter 829

Galen didn't even bother to ask Chase for his opinion.

Chase stayed quiet, though he cursed under his breath. He knew Galen was the strongest among them. Then, his gaze shifted toward Zia, Esme, and Elsa.

Thalia looked at him disdainfully, while Osric and Galen wore the same expression of contempt. They were well aware of Chase's true nature.

"Come here," Chase said, pointing at Esme.

She had the lowest cultivation base in the group and hadn't reached the Divine Realm, so logically, she shouldn't have been chosen. But he wasn't interested in her strength. Instead, he was drawn to her appearance. To him, she was the most attractive after Lillian.

Esme clung to Sebastian's arm as she grew uneasy under Chase's lingering stare. Sebastian frowned because he had long figured out that Chase was a scumbag. Judging by his name, it was easy to guess his sect practiced dual cultivation.

Back in Coreland, Sebastian heard rumors about a sect notorious for this practice. It was a breeding ground for vice, where hierarchy meant nothing. The sect leader and elders typically sought out female disciples to practice dual cultivation.

These disciples were either naturally promiscuous or they were coerced and forcibly taken in. The willing ones were fine since mutual consent existed, but the others faced grim fates.

The sect leader, elders, and some elite male disciples didn't care about these women's consent. They would just remove their pants and force themselves on them.

Beautiful female disciples, in particular, attracted unwanted attention and couldn't escape their fate. As a result, many were tortured to death. For someone as stunning as Esme, being in such a sect would lead to a truly tragic end.

But Sebastian understood the danger of acting impulsively. Asher was at least an eight-star demigod, maybe even nine, while Sebastian was only a three-star demigod. The difference was a staggering six stars. Sebastian knew he wouldn't stand a chance in a fight.

After the first round, the second selection began. Galen went first and chose Gina. While her skills weren't quite up to Sebastian's, Galen noticed that she was several years younger and had more potential for training.

Next, Thalia selected Elsa. Then, it was Osric's turn, and he picked Gideon.

Chase was last again. His gaze darted between Zia and a female disciple from the Infernal Gate. The men didn't even factor into his considerations. After a brief pause, he chose Zia.

Then, it was time for the third round, and Galen went first again. "You," he said, locking eyes with Sebastian.
