Rocky took the box, as well as the token, and put them away without even looking at what was inside the box.
"Don't you want to see what the reward is?" Ramon asked, seemingly more curious than Rocky.
"Well, I can check it later. Since it's from Master Harrison, I'm sure that I won't be disappointed in it. By the way, I went back to the Martial Spirit Graveyard and was able to secure some spiritual treasures this time. I want to hand them out to our team members. These should be able to help them improve a lot!" Upon saying that, Rocky took out a big bag from his Magic Spiritual Space. Then, when he opened it, the members of the Cloudlet Team were bewildered by the number of spiritual treasures at the Spirit Realm.
Their eyes lit up and they were in disbelief that Rocky was really going to give those to them.
"Come on, guys. Select what you think would suit you, but be sure not to get too many," Rocky said as he urged the members of the Cloudlet Team.
Immediately after, they rushed up and took their time to pick what they could.
"By the way, was it you who recommended me to become the deputy captain?" Rocky asked Ramon while the other members were still busy checking out the spiritual treasures.
"No, it wasn't me. Besides, it has only been a few months since you arrived here in the Sword Spirit City. Logically speaking, you shouldn't be promoted to that position just yet. Perhaps, it must be Master Harrison's doing. He personally made an exception for Miss Tessa's sake. So, if I were you, I would work very hard from now on. Don't let him down. Do you understand?" Ramon warned sternly.
"Of course! You can expect that I'll do my best," Rocky said with a confident smile.
After Rocky was formally promoted as the deputy captain of the guard team, his fame quickly rose in the Sword Spirit City and he caused a great sensation. Of course, as the news reached Miguel, it made him rather furious. Unfortunately for him, Rocky was far stronger than him, so he couldn't do anything about it. Moreover, now that even Harrison thought highly of Rocky, it was even more difficult for him to deal with the newcomer. Therefore, what he could right now was to seek Xavier's help.
"Young Master Miguel, what can I do for you?" Xavier asked straightforwardly upon seeing Miguel. He knew that since Miguel was visiting him, he must want something from him.
"I know that you already heard about Basil being promoted as deputy captain of the Cloudlet Team. With his current strength, he might soon become the captain. Are you not worried that he will become a great threat to you?" Miguel tried to speak in a roundabout way.
"Well, yeah. You're right. But until he becomes the captain himself, I don't think I should worry about anything. Why don't you go to Ramon? Isn't he the one you should warn? After all, his position is the one at risk," Xavier uttered coldly.
"Ramon is a stubborn fellow. He's not the type to question the decision of Master Harrison. In fact, even if Master Harrison replaced him with Basil as the new captain of the Cloudlet Team, he would never object. Therefore, it's useless to talk to him." Miguel spoke dismissively, also knowing that Ramon and Rocky had gotten close recently.
"So, where are you going with this? Do you want me to help you deal with Basil?" Xavier had actually known from the start what was on Miguel's mind. He also speculated that one of the main reasons why Miguel wanted to deal with Rocky immediately was because of the newcomer's close relationship with Tessa.
"You are indeed brilliant. Don't you feel that something is wrong with that guy? I think that he somehow managed to deceive both Master Timothy and Master Harrison. Think about it, they didn't expel him from the Sword Spirit City, and now this? If this goes on, we don't know what Basil could eventually do. The Sword Spirit City might be put in danger! Therefore, since there's no way to deal with him openly, it has to be done in secret." Miguel pretended to be motivated by righteous indignation.
"Then, what do you have in mind?" Xavier asked directly.
"That's the thing. I don't know what to do, so I came to ask you for help. With your profound experience, you should know how to deal with such kind of person. Am I right?" Miguel remarked, attempting to flatter Xavier.
"Yeah, maybe. But what will I benefit from helping you?" Xavier asked shrewdly.
