(From MC Perspective)

Then I headed straight towards the location.

Sometimes later, Inside the inn’s room.

“Mr. Jonathan, why did you pick this spot?” I said in a displaced tone. It’s been a while since I came here. But Mr. Jonathan came a couple of minutes later.

Seeing Zack’s displeased tone. Mr. Jonathan was surprised. He said to him, “What happened Zack, it’s unlikely for you to act like this?”

I composed myself after hearing his words. It’s true I’m acting out a bit. Then I told him to create a sound barrier around us.

Mr. Jonathan activated small artefact to form invisible soundproof barriers around them. Then looking at Zack’s face he said, “Now you can tell me what’s going on, without worrying about anything”

I took a deep breath and said, “It’s Crimson Hall. They told their students to collect information about me. I happened to bump into one of their students. That guy kept on following me to collect information. To silence him I killed him in the end.”

Hearing that Mr. Jonathan was stunned , he took a deep look at Zack for a moment.

“Are you scared?” He said.

I shake my head, why would I? If not that guy would have exposed my whereabouts. It will certainly pose a life threatening situation to Elder Thornton and Mr. Jonathan.

I still remember how helpless I felt facing the Elite Assassin. I don’t want to face that kind of situation ever again.

Then I added, ” From his mouth I also learnt that Crimson Hall’s elders were waiting at the Northern border. I bet they are planning to eliminate me.”

Mr. Jonathan appreciated seeing Zack’s calm and resolute face. He thought Zack would have killed him out of anger. But hearing his words and after observing his expression. He felt Zack pre planned to kill him. Otherwise he would be nervous. Then he sighed, feeling that his master ‘s decision was right to select Zack as his disciple.

It’s important to get used to killing and all otherwise someone will end you in the end.

Then he commented, “You did good, there is no need to worry over it. I will handle the remaining things. Just give me his corpse.”

Hearing that I passed him the corpse container. Mr. Jonathan placed the corpse container in his storage ring. Then to lighten the mood, he revealed, “The Master was impressed by your performance at the Star Tower Challenge.”please visit panda(-)N0ve1.co)m

“What?” I replied.

My mood literally recovered to normal. Though I felt uncomfortable killing him. But it was necessary. Yet now after hearing Mr. Jonathan’s words. I finally smiled.

Mr. Jonathan added further, “Yes, Even though the Star tower in Outer post is in basic standard. But it’s enough to determine the quality of Warriors born here; Especially, You have completed 18 floors in it. Which is not lower than inner post warriors.”

Hearing that I’m stunned for a moment. I noticed one particular sentence from his mouth. I performed no lower than inner post warriors. That means, my performance is just regular when compared to inner post warriors. What kind of place is the inner post? To breed powerful warriors. I can’t imagine the strength of extremely talented evildoers.

For a moment, I really want to fight against them. I’m both body and essence cultivator. Nobody knows about it even my teacher. I got help from both of my powers to reach the 18th floor, but I got thrashed on the 19th floor. Recalling the 19th floor, the images of those monsters flashes before my eyes.

I thought about learning them after going back home. But now I feel it’s good time to ask Mr. Jonathan. There is a chance he might know. Since he is from an inner post, his knowledge is higher than the rest of us.

Seeing Zack go into deep thinking, Mr. Jonathan called out his name. “Zack?”

“Ahem”

“Mr. Jonathan, I have something to tell you?” I said.

“Hmmm, Go ahead,” Mr. Jonathan replied.

Then I described the situation that I faced on the 19th floor. I also told him about the characteristics of those giant monsters.

Mr. Jonathan’s face looked normal at first. But when he started to listen to Zack. His face changed drastically to disbelief. But soon he recovered his face and continued to listen to Zack. But there is a small ripple in his eyes. He couldn’t believe what he heard just now.

Including the Master and himself, Zack did well in that Challenge. But it’s very strange for that kind of special beasts phantom to appear in that challenge. Looks like the outer post Star Tower is not as simple as it seems. I need to tell my master about it. Then he observed Zack again.” If not for those special beasts. He might have advanced to several floors.” He thought to himself.

He knows Special beasts were not simple. Even inner posts warriors face a hard time dealing with it. But he doesn’t want to tell Zack right now. This matter requires his Master’s permission. Unless his master allowed it he won’t tell it right away. Seeing Zack is looking at him for an answer. He felt conflicted yet he said, ” It is really strange. I haven’t heard of such monsters. Don’t worry, I will look into it.”

I felt a little bit disappointed hearing his answer. Even he himself doesn’t know. Looks like this will remain a mystery for now. But I need to work harder even now. My goal is now competing with those inner post warriors now.

Then I commented, “Mr. Jonathan, What I have to do right now? Elder Thornton will be busy for a while. I don’t know how long I will have to stay in the Star Tower Guest house.”

Hearing that Mr. Jonathan told him after he disposed of Darius’ corpse.. Until then I have to stay in the Star Tower guest house.
