“A mind-calming pill! Master, where did you get this?” Kent exclaimed after seeing the aromatic pill inside the wooden box.
With a smile, Peak Master Porus gestured for Kent to sit down on the chair and passed a cup of wine to him.
“This pill is an exchange item for your favor!” Porus uttered in a calm tone while thinking about his word to the old man.
“What do you mean, master?” Kent asked with a surprised look.
“Someone provided me this pill and information about inheritance grounds. But in exchange, they asked a favor from you.” Porus replied in a heavy tone.
“What favor, master?” Kent, who understood the heaviness in Porus’s tone, put down his wine glass and listened intently.
Take a deep breath. Porus asked, “Do you remember the young auction lady?”
“You mean the lady named ‘Jia’, master?” Kent stared with a questioning look. freёwebnoѵel.com
“Yes, she is the one. You should aid her inside the inheritance ground in case she asks for your help specifically. But if your life is in danger, you don’t need to follow her command. Can you, do it?” Porus asked before revealing the inheritance ground information to Kent.
Kent fell into a deep thought as he thought about the lady named Jia, and dangers lay ahead in the inheritance ground. She is definitely a burden for him. But knowing the information beforehand and having a high-ranking pill is definitely not less valuable.
“What you will suggest, master? Should I accept this deal?” Kent asked while staring back at Porus.
“Yes, you should accept it. As you don’t need to face any life-threatening dangers for her, it is a beneficial deal.” Porus replied before taking a sip from the wine glass.
After a short pause, Kent nodded his head. “Yes, master. I will assist the lady if she asks for my help.”
Gulping the entire wine in one go, Porus put down his cup and began explaining about the inheritance ground. “Kent, this time, the inheritance ground belongs to God of Storm. The second most powerful one among the 33 demi-gods.”
“One can receive powerful treasures and spells inside the inheritance ground. But the dangers will be laid on each step. You will get many chances to learn the three Dao’s of storm God, i.e., Water, Wind, and Lightening.”
“Most importantly, I heard that the inheritance of the lust goddess is hidden inside somewhere in the storm God inheritance ground. The mind-calming pill you received is specifically for this purpose. Use it wisely.”
“There are still four days left for inheritance ground opening. So, use this time to study more about inheritance ground and prepare yourself useful treasures. In any case, don’t forget that your target is to receive the inheritance of Storm God. Do not be swayed by the small treasures and some powerful spells. Always keep your mindset to see the bigger picture.”
Peak Master Porus continued to explain several things for the next one hour. Porus spoke every small detail he knew about the Storm God inheritance ground.
“Shh… I hope you will be the one who receive the Storm God inheritance. Take rest for tonight. Tomorrow morning, we will leave for the desolate lands using the teleportation gate.” Porus replied while sending Kent outside.
Kent bowed his head and walked towards his room. By the time Kent came back to his room, Fatty was already sleeping with a loud snore. With a smile, Kent created a sound barrier around himself and directly fell on the soft bed on the corner.
Even though Kent closed his eyes, the thoughts about inheritance ground swirling inside his brain.

On the top floor of Cauldron Inn,
Inside a lavishly decorated room, the girls from Ice Castle were sleeping peacefully. But at the edge of an open window, Princess Eila sat with a dull face.
She is holding her the ‘Frost Bite’ wand, which she recently purchased in the auction by spending a large sum. With a craving hand, the wand has gray-white design at the handle.
Her eyes filled with moisture as she stared at a group of small birds flying in the distant night sky. Images of her mother dying in the hands of a mysterious young lady are still flashing in her thoughts.
“Princess…!” A suddenly mature girl reached out to Eila in a whispering tone.
“I’m just staring at the sky. You go to sleep first.” Eila said while turning her head away.
“My lady, I can feel the sadness in your tone. Please brace yourself. Once you receive this inheritance, you can revive our sect back to its glory.” The mature lady spoke with concern while holding Eila’s palm.
Eila smiled helplessly after hearing what the mature lady said. Eila clearly knew how many powerful people will compete for the inheritance.
“Princess, what do you think about, Bald Lin of the Crimson Sun sect?” Suddenly the mature lady named June asked with an anticipated look.
“What do you mean?” Eila hurriedly turned back with a serious look.
“I mean, what do you think of him as your partner? Didn’t you mention that you will receive a partner who can take revenge for us and resurrect the sect again? Think about it, princess. At present, our sect doesn’t have any powerful backers. If the news about the death of our ancestor and elders leaked to other…!”
Eila immediately shut the mature lady with an angry glare. “June, don’t even mention about this matter. I know what you are implying. But I will try my best to take revenge on my own. Only in case I find a capable person who can really back our Ice Castle, then I will think of taking a partner. Otherwise, don’t even mention about these baldies and top disciples of other sects.
Every man always tries to get on our back with lies and false bravadoes. So, don’t believe any man by listening to what people say about him. If there is really a man who could take my revenge and support my Ice Castle with his strength, then I know what to do.”
Eila spoke in a serious tone and walked away from the window.
