Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 307

Isis could remember a time when Sheridan told her that she was the most qualified talent. It was a source of pride for her as well. But now, all he could talk about was how talented Rocky was. Isis heard Sheridan praise Rocky for his intelligence and aptitude. It made her feel uneasy, and she wanted to ask him who he thought was better, Rocky or her. Unfortunately, a part of her was afraid that if she did, she might not get the answer that she wanted at all.

"Isis?" She turned towards the voice and saw Marin approaching.

"Here you are!" Isis looked at Marin, smiling warmly.

"You weren't with the Commander in Chief, so I thought you might be here," Marin said, smiling back at her.

"I just want to see for myself if Rocky is as good as Sheridan said!" Isis told her quietly, voice as soft as the gentle flow of water in a deep pond.

"Oh? Could you be jealous of Rocky?" Marin said teasingly. It was the first time she had seen Isis like this. She had been close to Isis for a long time, and being her cousin, she could say that she knew her very well. It was the first time she seemed affected by something and not her stoic self.

"Why would I be jealous of him? No way!" Isis exclaimed vehemently as if it was the worst thing she had ever heard.

"We all know that Sheridan has a strange preferences. He used to praise you a lot but now he thinks very highly of Rocky. So, you must feel you're being compared." Marin smiled knowingly at her. She seemed delighted when Isis could not meet her eyes and instead looked away from her.

"You think so?" Isis would never admit to it but that was exactly what she was feeling. Her father, who never praised others, spoke highly of Rocky. Rocky must have something extremely special to get all these special treatment. Something she didn't have...

"There will always be someone out there who is better than us. It seems, my dear cousin, that you have finally met your match. And that is Rocky!" Marin looked smug and amused as she waited for her cousin's response. She thought Rocky was good but she didn't expect that he would cause something this interesting. She should thank him some day.

"That's impossible. He could be no match for me!" Isis said in an arrogant voice. She seemed annoyed that Marin would even suggest something like that.

Instead of answering, Marin just smiled at her silently. She turned back to where Rocky was, but found that he had left while they were busy talking.

After a while, the two beautiful figures on the roof faded into the darkness.

Meanwhile, Rocky had reached the lake located at the south of the base camp. As he looked around, he found there were a lot of buildings and pavilions around the lake. It would take a lot of time to find the red spiritual crystal.

Almost at the same time, three spirit-manipulating Deputy Commanders appeared nearby the lake too.

"Depths of a foggy place... What could it mean?" Rocky talked to himself as he surveyed the scene around him.

On the other hand, the three Deputy Commanders had sent out their beasts to search the area around the lake.

Rocky decided not to let Uriah join the search. Instead, he looked around and focused on interpreting the meaning of "in the depths of a foggy place near water". Lance had said that the one who decoded the meaning of the words would know the exact location of red spiritual crystal.

All of a sudden, a spirit-manipulated beast roared. Soon, two others roared in succession. Rocky ran to investigate and found that three spirit-manipulated beasts were nearby. They were snarling and pacing around a building like they had found something.

In response to the roars and snarl, three figures gathered around the building. They stayed wary of each other even as they entered into the building to investigate.

"Uriah?" Rocky suddenly noticed the lack of Uriah's presence.
