"Ken, come on! Show him what you've got! Teach that wretched guy a lesson!" Queenie shouted as she clenched her fists. She really wanted to encourage Ken.
"Queenie, did you already know that Mr. Rookie had a spiritual beast at the King Level?" When she saw the excited look on her sister's face, Lucilla thought that there was something going on and asked Queenie immediately.
"Yes! I already know. I used to ride it before! It was amazing!" Queenie enthusiastically said as she nodded.
"Huh. When did you get along so well with Mr. Rookie?" Lucilla asked. She was really confused. She knew that her sister hated Rocky very much before, but later on her attitude towards Rocky suddenly changed drastically. Although she still called him "bastard", she somehow had long known that he had a spiritual beast of the King Level. It was difficult for Lucilla to understand the situation.
"What? Get along well with him? Are you kidding me? I hate him so much!" Queenie retorted as she shook her head.
"Well, you always say that you hate him, but why do you still play with his spirit-manipulated beast and learn the Beast Curing Skill from him? Answer me honestly, do you really hate him?" Lucilla asked immediately.
"Hmm, well... I just really hate him." Queenie was speechless. Although she thought she did hate Rocky, she didn't hate it when she was with him. On the contrary, she always felt that there was something about Rocky that attracted her. It made her feel that there was something blossoming between them.
"Queenie, tell me the truth. Do you like Mr. Rookie?" Lucilla asked in a low voice. When she saw her sister's incoherent and flustered look, she thought that this might be the reason why Queenie suddenly changed her attitude towards Rocky.
"What? How could you even think that?" Queenie was stunned by her sister's question. But, she immediately replied, "No. How can I even like him? I would die first before I even like him. Besides, he is your fiancé. The both of you will get married soon..." As she spoke, her eyes flashed with a bit of hurt and sadness.
"You actually don't have to care about me at all. It's impossible for me to be together with Mr. Rookie. Even if I do like him, we can never get married. He will eventually leave the Cao Clan and the Timber Deity Empire. And as the chief of the Cao Clan, I can't go with him when he leaves. But your case is different. If you like him, you can go with him when he eventually leaves. And being with him may be a good thing for you. I truly believe that he will take good care of you. So, please don't hide your feelings," Lucilla said gently as she breathed a sigh.
"What? Sister..." Queenie didn't know what to say after what Lucilla said.
At this moment, everyone in the beast arena suddenly let out a cry of great surprise.
In the arena which was shrouded by the strong wind, the Dark Ghost Shadow launched an attack on Ken. However, Ken suddenly disappeared from where it stood. It left without a trace as if it had vanished into thin air.
"What? How is that even possible?" Even Geoffrey found it hard to believe that this spirit-manipulated beast vanished all at once. He realized that Ken must have some kind of ability to hide itself. However, he was sure that it was still in this arena.
Soon enough, Geoffrey controlled the Dark Ghost Shadow to shoot countless wind swords all around the arena. He was trying to force Ken to show up, but his effort was in vain.
Just as everyone was guessing where Ken had gone, the Dark Ghost Shadow, which was floating in the air, suddenly seemed to be hit by something and flew back in an instant.
Although the Dark Ghost Shadow fought back quickly, its attack greatly missed.
