"Are you here to give me another type of flame!?" Her eyes lights up.

"Yes."

"That is certainly great news!"

"The great news that I’m talking about isn’t the flame, your older sister has broken through, her strength is now comparable to that of Wuk and even I, unfortunately, she might not be able to return here for a long time."

"Why!?" Her sister’s breakthrough should had been a happy news, why does it feel like bad news instead.

"During her breakthrough, she creates a bridge that connects Beast World to Martial World, she wants to use this opportunity to try and conquer that world, she might not return for a long time."

This time, Scorchy was stunned, her older sister’s dream was quite shocking.

"Don’t worry, I know that all of you are ambitious, if we ever find a world that’s ruled by magic, I’ll leave it to you."

"We’re walking the path of conquest?"

Sean becomes silent, then sighs, he nods his head.

Even though, he doesn’t want to, in order to improve the strength of their world and also Beast World, they had to participate in the war of worlds.

"Don’t think about it too deeply, right now, there’s only one mission I have for you."

"To breakthrough to gold rank!"

"Yes!"

He then shows her a fiendish looking flame, it has a tinged of blood red color with intense black colour in the center.

This is a fire made from Chaos Qi, he’s confident that Scorchy can absorb, she can absorb any flame, no matter what source.

Besides, he was the one giving her the flame, she doesn’t need to fight to subdue it.

She opens her mouth and the flame was absorbed into her.

Her tier immediately Increases by one, sensing the powerful energy from her body, he smiles and left.

He might give her the flame associated with molten property, basically a fire that’s filled with golden Qi.

Once she fully absorbs the power of the chaos flame, she would definitely reach tier 9, one more flame and she’ll be on the verge of breaking through.

Inside Beast World, Dorgaron senses the flame element in the Fire Plane was growing stronger and he can’t help but pout.

He knows that Sean was helping Scorchy reach gold rank, he needs to do better if he wanted to catch up.

"I should ask for master to bring more variety of aquatic mystique creatures in this world."

Back home, Sean shares the great news about his impending breakthrough, he decided to focus in building the space gate, he just need to wait for Scorchy to completely absorb the fire that he had given her.

They were happy for him, they had never doubted him.

Just like that, a few more days passes by, the creation of space gates has renewed Sean’s understanding towards the space element.

"Sean! Scorchy is calling for you!" Jericho, who just returned from the city shouts.

Sean, who was carrying a large metallic part stops what he was doing.

His eyes lights up in excitement, he gently puts the part down and flashes besides Jericho.

"Is Scorchy here?"

"No, this message comes from Jasmine, it seems that she doesn’t want to alarm you, so she had me tell you."

"Okay." He immediately disappears.

Jericho looks at the giant circular object in front of him and he can’t help but sigh.

Both and him worked hard to find enough materials in the wild for this project.

If they didn’t have the members of the Gold Family helping them, they wouldn’t had succeeded.

Fortunately, their city is known for it’s abundance of metal element and ore veins.

"Lord Jericho, wouldn’t you agree with our proposal?" Suddenly, his eyes twitches when he hears a familiar voice besides him.

Bones expression changes as he quickly runs away with Earth Escape.

Jericho has a headache dealing with this situation, suddenly, another familiar voice appears.

"Oh my! What do you want to ask from my fiancee?" Missel appears, she was smiling at the man but outwardly protecting Jericho.

The man falters, if it was anyone, they might be confident in intimidating them but both Missel and Jericho are a class of their own.

The former is now the successor of her family and it was improving quickly, nearly reaching the standard of a great family.

Jericho, is different, his strength comes from his own, his potential that’s equal to that of Kommi, at silver rank, he can already put up a fight against gold rank, capturing him is impossible and killing him is incredibly difficult.

There’s also the fact that if they successfully kill him, they would face the wrath of Sean and his family, no one dares to do this.

"Sorry, I’m just leaving, we’ll talk with lord Jericho in another day." The man left with his group.

Jericho was relieved and hugs his girlfriend, no, now, his fiance.

Bones returns, he looks around and didn’t see the man and sighs in relief.

BOK!

Jericho smacks him in the head.

"What kind of teammate are you!? You actually left me behind!"

"Sorry, it was out of instinct."

Jericho grits his teeth before releasing a sigh, he can’t really blame this little brother of his.

Bones was taken advantage by those people, he was drugged and was nearly taken advantage of by multiple females, fortunately, his Earth Lizard has saved him.

"The Flame Clan is getting desperate." Missel mutters.

"Well, both the remaining two major families have connections with Sean and his family, especially, the Evergreen Family, both Wuk and Jasmine owes them a life debt, those two aren’t ones to be ungrateful."

"Yeah, meanwhile, in the Gold Family, Nima is friends with Sean and is Hina’s best friend, not to mention, Sean was a former member of their mercenary group, including Chika, they also have a close connection to the Black Ape Dojo, right now, they are the strongest of the three major powers."

"Only the Flame Clan has no backer, not to mention, Flame Prince isn’t as strong as dojo master Zack or family head Evergreen."

"Hmph! They are already rich! They own nearly all the alchemy industry in the city and yet they are still greedy for you!" Missel angrily stomps the ground.

Sean is unaware of the many troubles his friends and students has encountered after their return, right now, he’s mainly focused in cultivating.

When he arrives at the volcano, he sees Scorchy’s mage tower was still the same as before, it seems that she has put more focus in her cultivation.

"Had you completely absorb the chaos flame?" He asks.

She nods her head, seeing this, he was relieved.

He then summons a golden flame that contains a sharp presence.

"Here, take this, hopefully, this will be enough to push you to the peak of your tier."

She absorbs the flame and in just a short while, her tier went from tier nine to tier ten, her breakthrough requirement also appears.

Requirements for breakthrough: (1) Absorb ten different types of flame [8/10]; (2) Create ten magic sprlls [1/10]; (3) Develop Mana Core into a higher tier; (4) Gather enough spiritual energy; (5) Absorbs a fire type core of at gold silver rank.

Seeing the require, he was stunned, it seems that her future path is definitely related to Mana.

He then summons two more flames.

"These two flames are called yin flame and thunderflame, use them to complete the first requirement for your breakthrough, I can help you with the last requirement also, but for the second and third requirements, it will a test for your potential and intelligence, I shall not interfere with it."

She nods her head, she had already completed one spell, she’s confident that she can create more.

For the mana core, she wasn’t really worried, she has been studying the structure of her core and she has absolute trust in the quality of her mana.

The only thing that was supposed to be difficult is finding different types of flame, fortunately, this problem is solved by Sean, she doesn’t need to have a headache about going in a journey searching for such rare objects.

Meanwhile, back on the city, Sean and the others resumes building the enormous space gate.

The amount of resources they poured in this project, the manpower that’s always on the clock, and the time they spent was immense.

Even with Sean’s help, they only managed to reach the preliminary form of the structure, still, the powerful pulse coming from it causing the surrounding space to twist.

"Master, I obtained some news regarding the plants that are capable of enduring infusion of space element."

Sean, who was inscribing a formation, stops slightly before continuing.

After a while, a giant formation can be seen lying in the floor in front of the space gate.

The large formation was created from his own blood.

"Where are the plants?" He recovers instantly, he had to focus or else, his body would automatically stops any bleeding.

"It came from the two dragons, they had chased after the subordinates of the Abyssal Church in the inner zone and found them using different objects to summon their leaders, in these objects, some of them are actually seeds."

"I’m the only one that has affinity towards space element amongst us, leave the search to me."

"You had been working nonstop for this past couple of days, shouldn’t you rest for now."

"I can’t, the space gate is now on the verge of being completed, we can’t be lacking in our preparation and the plants are too important to just ignore."

"I understand, this the map of the inner core and this spot is where the two dragons killed the guy before they were chased back to Golden Paradise by the people you defeated."

"It’s not that far, it seems that the two dragons only managed to reach their current realm is because they were blessed by this world, no wonder they aren’t as strong as they are supposed to, their ascension is not really complete."

Jasmine agrees with his words. "After all, I can’t help but feel strange with just how many things happening simultaneously."

"You’re right, something has definitely happened to our world but we don’t have any information on it."

"Should we let some of the evolution planners look up to it?"

"Yes, the fastest and safest way to survive a great shift is to gather enough information, sadly, our zone isn’t as developed as the top three zones."

"I heard that the people from Zone C has multiple researchers, it’s practically their community, how about we recruit people there?"

"Are you trying absorb other humans from other zones?"

"Yes, we are sorely lacking in terms of population after the invasion, if we want to develop forward, we need more people."

"You’re right, once I reach gold rank, I’ll travel to the other zones." She becomes silent.

"Are you trying to shoulder the responsibility of protecting this world? You know that we have Beast World."

"I don’t know why I came in this world but I know that I was sent here for a purpose and protecting this world might be one of them."

"You had been contemplating such a thing since you were a child."

He wants to tell her the truth but finally decided to keep quiet.

"Probably, you know, I’m not really into that saying with great power comes great responsibility, I wield my power for myself and my family, protecting this world is in my interest."

"Sorry, let’s talk some more later, I’m going to check the location, I hope that Liliaghant is powerful enough to induce growth to them."

He disappears, leaving Jasmine confused but his words did help settling some of her thoughts.

"So, master wants to be the guardian of this world, if that’s the case, everyone must pitched in, I won’t accept lazy freeloaders that wouldn’t work for his goals and ideals."

She returns back to her office and starts releasing some papers and documents in her device, she has discretion to make a path for the future of the city without asking Sean or anyone as she’s the city lord.
