The Medallion novel Chapter 14

Of course, Rocky was not alone in his behavior. The other twenty-nine young men looked as though they had seen some kind of rare treasure as well. The sight of such a gorgeous woman had sent them reeling, but there was also a look of fear on their faces. Apparently, they all knew her identity. Although she was extremely stunning, she also looked very mighty and serious. Almost no men dared to stare at her for a long time, for fear of bearing the consequences of offending her.

The only exception was Rocky. He was still looking at the woman with great interest, his eyes wantonly scanning her figure.

By this time, she already reached him. Knotting her long, slender eyebrows, she glared at him accusingly. "Why did you dilly-dally just now? Didn't you hear my order?" she yelled intimidatingly. The other men flinched.

"Did I dilly-dally just now?" Rocky responded stubbornly, boldly looking right into her eyes. He had no idea who she was and didn't fear her at all.

As she grew closer to him, he felt her exude a very strong spiritual power as if it were to wrap him from all directions.

"Just have a look at your teammates," the woman said as she pointed at other young men behind him.

Rocky then realized that he was the only one that lagged behind. Behind him, the other twenty-nine young men and their own war beasts had all lined up orderly and stood solemnly like well-trained soldiers.

"Master Mia, there is no need to be exasperated about him. Unlike the other well-trained young men, he was a little prince who was accustomed to an extravagant life. He never received any training or had to work hard for anything. Although he has now been demoted to a civilian, he seems to think that he is still a little prince. So, he is lazy and slow and always disregards law and authority. In the future, I hope that he will receive more rigorous training," Priest Dean said as he walked down from the carriage.

"I've received the message from a carrier pigeon. According to the message, I presume he is Basil, the prince who has fused with the Holy Dragon Bead?" The woman immediately steered her attention to Rocky with a look of surprise. Yet, immediately after, she regained her composure.

"You're right! It's him." Priest Dean nodded.

"Then why is his spiritual power so weak, almost like he doesn't have any to speak of?" The woman was puzzled.

"That just goes without saying. There are always some lucky good-for-nothings in the world." Priest Dean looked at Rocky with a sneer on his face. He was obviously implying that Rocky was worthless.

"Is this your war beast?" The woman glanced at the little beast in Rocky's arms and frowned slightly.

"Yes, is there any problem?" Rocky raised the little beast and shook it gently in front of the woman.

"Why did you choose such a good-for-nothing war beast? It doesn't even have the potential to be even a first-star war beast," the woman asked bluntly.

"Hey, how do you know it's a good-for-nothing? Although my beast looks normal, its real power should never be underestimated! I thought you were different from other people. But apparently, I was wrong," Rocky said in a disappointed voice. Immediately, his good impression of the woman reduced.

"You…" the woman snapped abruptly. Hearing Rocky's disapproving and disrespectful words, she was both offended and inexplicably ashamed.

At that particular moment, the little beast roared twice, turned its head from Rocky's arms, and looked at the woman with its two innocent eyes.
