The Medallion novel Chapter 10

"Your Majesty, please rescind the order! Basil is your..." Lena's voice trailed off. Her face grew solemn.

"I have made up my mind. You don't have to speak for him. From now on, Basil is no longer a prince of the Holy Dragon Empire," the emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire said flatly.

"Don't worry. Father, it's a wise decision," Alston said with a cold smile as he walked up to him and glared at Rocky disdainfully.

Alston was the handsome prince who had stared at him with contempt. Rocky could tell right away that Basil's brother was not a good person. Elegance and handsomeness didn't guarantee a good heart.

'This emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire is so cruel! No matter what, Basil is his son! How could he deny his identity as a prince so easily?' Rocky thought to himself. Basil—or rather, he—was no longer a prince now, so it meant his extravagant lifestyle would come to an end. If he knew he would have ended up like this, he would never have touched the Holy Dragon Bead.

It was always happiness that came before a fall.

Priest Dean was also surprised by the emperor's decision, but he thought it was reasonable. He looked at Basil coldly with a disdainful smile. He seemed to want him to get out of the country as soon as possible.

"But Basil has bonded with the Holy Dragon Bead. He has attained the dragon spiritual power and becomes a spirit manipulator. Now he is the royal spirit manipulator who can manipulate dragons. So according to the law of the Holy Dragon Empire, he has to be trained and learn the spiritual method of the Dragon Master Clan with other royal spirit manipulators," the emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire announced another shocking truth.

Everyone exclaimed in astonishment again. Of course, they knew that 'royal spirit manipulator' was a mere title. The best advantage for becoming a royal spirit manipulator was having the opportunity to learn the spiritual method of the Dragon Master Clan, which was far superior to the regular spiritual method. For instance, when a spirit manipulator used the two spiritual methods at the same grade, the spiritual method of the Dragon Master Clan was much powerful than the regular one.

Therefore, every spirit manipulator hoped that they could learn the spiritual method of the Dragon Master Clan, but according to the law of the Holy Dragon Empire, only a royal spirit manipulator could learn it.

So for Basil, who had failed consistently in becoming a regular spirit manipulator, this was a tremendous deal!

"Your Majesty, he..." Priest Dean did not expect that the emperor would acknowledge Basil's new status as a royal spirit manipulator. He had expected the emperor should take away his identity as a spirit manipulator and seal his dragon spiritual power forever. To him, it made little sense that the emperor only took away Basil's identity as a prince!

Lena was also confused and did not understand why the emperor chose to do this. But she was glad to know Rocky could at least learn the royal spiritual method and get training. Things could be worse.

"Well, that's the end of the ritual. Priest Dean, take them to the beast farm and ask them to pick their own war beasts first, then take them to the dragon field and let them undergo the most strict training. Witch Lena, come with me," the emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire solemnly said to the Priest Dean. He and Lena then began to walk away, accompanied by a group of imperial guards.

Lena nodded at Rocky, her eyes filled with encouragement. Soon, she was gone, following the emperor.

Rocky smiled as he looked at Lena's receding figure. From the first moment that he woke up in this world, she had always cared about him. Compared with everyone else, this beautiful girl was as virtuous as an angel.

"That's it. I must make her my girlfriend, and..." Rocky was indulging in his imagination.

He soon noticed a group of people coming up to him.

Leading the group was Basil's brother, Crown Prince Alston, accompanied by some other princes.

"Basil, you are no longer a prince. Bear in mind not to tell others that you are one of the Royals. You are a disgrace to our name."

"What can you do even though you have bonded with the Holy Dragon Bead? You are still so weak that any spirit manipulator can easily kill you!"

"You don't deserve to be my brother!"
