Chapter 998
Westville? Felix thought about what Barry had mentioned. The Xavier family's Battle for the Bride was happening in a few days.noveldrama
"Are you going to Westville for the Xavier family's tournament, Madam Goddard?"
Deborah's expression turned strange. "So, you do have romantic interests! Here I thought your mind was filled with nothing but martial arts and alchemy. I didn't think you'd know about the tournament. You're not going to try your luck, are you?"
Felix rubbed his head, slightly embarrassed. "Stop teasing me."
Deborah laughed. "Janet Xavier isn't quite good enough for you, though her sister Nerissa is remarkable. Too bad she's already engaged, or I might have played the matchmaker."
Taking advantage of the opening, Felix quickly asked, "Really? Do you think highly of Nerissa as well, Madam Goddard?"
Deborah nodded. "Of course! That woman has strong principles and excellent character. Among the Top Ten Menaces, she's one of the few who meet my standards. Whoever that mysterious fiancé is, he's quite lucky."
Felix found it interesting that even Deborah thought so highly of Nerissa. His instincts had not been wrong. "Then, I'll join you tomorrow, Madam Goddard. It'll be good to lift my spirits."
...
Back at Tranquil Clinic, Laura was tidying up. Her overall condition had greatly improved from before.
Thanks to the pills Felix cultivated in his spare time, Laura had successfully reached the early stage of Blood Realm. Though this level of power meant little to Felix now, she had been the first person to help him upon entering Martial City. Thus, he still treated her well.
"Mr. Zeller."
Felix nodded slightly and went upstairs to call Nala on the phone. "I'm following Madam Goddard to Westville tomorrow. If nothing goes wrong after I return, I plan to meet up with you and fulfill my promise."
Nala was excited. "Really? That's wonderful! I've waited so long for this day."
"Don't worry. When have I ever broken my word?"
The Maximus family's threat had been minimized, especially after Ezra's warning. They likely would not dare to make any major moves.
As for the Grand Elder of the Elders' Council, he would indeed pose a threat and was likely at the mastery of Transcendent Realm. But
had reached the early Transcendent With his Lone Paragon
stage. With his Lone Paret
activated and a few life-saving items, he needn't fear leaving home.
Regarding Nala's situation, Felix had asked Deborah about it since he now trusted
her completely. The answer shocked him.
Nala's nemesis was actually Martial
City's third-ranked alchemist, second only to Deborah. That elder
specialized in poison pills, making it
nearly impossible to counter with
normal antidote pills. The only
sotution would be getting the
original antidote.
Coming downstairs, Felix was surprised to see Deborah sitting in a chair. Meanwhile, Laura was standing nervously nearby with an innocent look.
"Don't blame her. I told her not to disturb you," Deborah said.
Felix walked over. "Madam Goddard, is something wrong?" After all, they had parted ways just now.
Standing up, Deborah smiled. "The Empress has come to North City. I just received the news. Would you like to pay respects to Martial City's strongest woman with me?"
The Empress from the royal family? Felix's thoughts flickered. Wasn't that Cordelia?
What do you think?
