Andrew chuckled, not hiding anything as he said, "I'm getting there. I can now handle most ordinary martial emperors. However, the seal on my energy core is still there, so I haven't officially stepped into the martial emperor realm yet in terms of actual cultivation level."
Jerome exhaled deeply and said with admiration, "You're truly a prodigy among prodigies. As the leader of the Southern Martial Union, I've seen countless talented individuals. But compared to you, Andy, they're all just ordinary. A genius is nothing compared to you. I made the right choice."
His choice, naturally, referred to following Andrew.
Andrew nodded. "In that case, you should rest. Tomorrow morning, we'll watch the negotiations between Corbin and Koda first. Then, I'll find an opportunity to make contact with Koda."
Jerome agreed. "Good, let's do that. Andy, you should get some rest, too."
With that, he left Andrew's room.
Andrew lifted his hand, and the greatsword resting by the bed flew straight into his palm. Feeling the cold steel of the hilt, he murmured, "Buddy, looks like we're going to fight side by side again."
Godslayer sent a pulse of excitement back into his mind.
Andrew chuckled, closed the window, and prepared to rest. Yet a sudden pure-white silhouette appeared in his line of sight.
Down below, under the moonlight, the Institute's lakeside garden looked breathtakingly beautiful. The night was completely still. A man and a woman stepped onto the little bridge for a late-night date.
Even though they were far away, Andrew instantly recognized the woman by her outline and posture.
