The Medallion novel Chapter 1458

After everything that had been discussed, Uriel left the hall first.

“Tessa, you’re lucky enough that you were able to merge with a martial spirit on your first journey to the Martial Spirit Graveyard. Hence, you must work hard from now on. You can’t waste such a rare opportunity.” Harrison wore a serious look as he tried to encourage her daughter.

“I will, Father. Don’t worry. You can expect that I won’t let you down. Besides, I can’t let Basil surpass me again. It’ll be too embarrassing for me. So, if there’s nothing else, I will go back now and have a rest.” Then, Tessa made a mischievous face and left before her father could say something more.

“What happened to my girl?!” Harrison said as he shook his head. He knew that her daughter was quite the stubborn type but he discerned that there was something else that changed about her. After thinking for a while, he told himself, “Since Basil came, Tessa has become more ambitious and competitive. If only she isn’t engaged to Miguel, I may even think that Basil is more suitable for her. Moreover, I can see that those two are extremely close. Now, I’m worried that those two might suddenly fall in love with each other! Oh, what am I going to do? It will be a huge headache for me!”

Meanwhile, Rocky and Ramon walked together on their way back. Neither of them seemed to be in the mood for a small talk, and the atmosphere was a little dull.

However, when they were about to part ways, Ramon couldn’t help but ask, “Hey, Basil. Did you encounter something after you drew away all those martial spirits? Why do I feel like you’ve suddenly become a different person when you came back? Did something happen to you?”

“Do you think so?” Rocky asked as if feigning ignorance.

Ramon just stared at him and slightly nodded.

“Wow, I didn’t expect that you’re going to see through me. Well, to tell you the truth, it’s because I’ve also fused with a martial spirit,” Rocky said in a soft voice. He was actually telling half of the truth. While he did fuse with a martial spirit, the whole truth was a bit complicated.

“What?! Are you serious? How did you even do that?” Ramon was stunned upon hearing what Rocky said. He was having a hard time believing him because it was known to be almost impossible for a warrior to fuse with a martial spirit without it being bound first.

“Shh, not so loud. Captain, please keep it a secret. I don’t want anyone else to know for the time being. You know that I might only get into trouble if the wrong people knew,” Rocky said in a meaningful tone.

“Yeah, I get it. But really? You’re not lying to me? You were able to merge with a martial spirit on your own?” Ramon asked, still in utter disbelief.

“Come on now. Why would I even lie to you? You know that you’re one of the few people that I can share my secrets with,” Rocky said with a faint smile.

“I just didn’t expect you to be so lucky.” Eventually, Ramon was convinced that Rocky should be telling the truth, although it was still a mystery to him how the young man did it. He speculated that there must be some more details that Rocky didn’t tell him.

Regardless of how he did it, now that Rocky had fused with a martial spirit, it was such a huge breakthrough. It was just normal for Ramon to be envious of him.

“Don’t worry. I will also find you a suitable martial spirit when I get the chance. I can promise you that,” Rocky said with a straight face. In his opinion, Ramon might be a bit dull and a little bit too old-fashioned, but he had a loyal and chivalrous heart. Moreover, he really thought that he was right to befriend him.

“You don’t need to console me. I know that it’s not easy for you to meet the martial spirit that you fused with. Besides, we still have to wait until next year in order to enter the graveyard again. Anyway, thank you for offering your help.” For Ramon, what Rocky said was just wishful thinking, so he didn’t take it too seriously.

“Well, who said that we can only catch a martial spirit in the Martial Spirit Graveyard?” Rocky said as he let out a cunning smile. If he let out all the martial spirits that he stored within his Magic Spiritual Space, he would probably scare the hell out of Ramon.

“What are you saying? There are other ways to catch a martial spirit?” Ramon asked as he narrowed his eyes.

“Well, something like that, but I can’t tell you exactly how. However, if you do me a favor, I can promise to get you your own martial spirit,” Rocky said in a scheming tone.

“Fine. I can help you. Just be sure to hold the end of your bargain,” Ramon said seriously. Although he didn’t like Rocky before, they got along these past several days and his impression of the young man had also changed a lot. Especially when he deliberately risked his life just to let Tessa properly merge with the martial spirit, he had to admit that Rocky was a nice person. It was just that there were a lot of mysteries surrounding the guy.
