Rod snapped back to reality, imdiately pulling back his hand. In front of him, Teresa had opened her eyes, looking at him with a gentle smile. Her red hair swayed beside her ears, giving her a noble yet charming appearance.
"You’re awake, Teresa. How do you feel now?"
Teresa didn’t seem to mind Rod’s actions. She looked at her hands, Spiritual Energy changing effortlessly at her fingertips. Although it was a very slight change, she could sense that her Spiritual Energy was no longer weak, but in an interdiate state between weak and strong.
The resonating Soul Trait was transforming her Spiritual Energy, emitting a characteristic of a more potent Source.
"Did I succeed?"
Ryanbeck imdiately rushed forward, exclaiming with joy, "Yes, you succeeded, Teresa! You finally beca the Commander. The White Spirit Inheriters aren’t without a future anymore. gan the fool was wrong. You are our pride, the pride of the Taboo Armant!"
Golden light flickered within Teresa’s soul as the 14th-level Spiritual Energy spread out. She said joyfully, "I am a Commander now. I can enter the real battlefield... Little Rod, it was you who helped , right?"
Rod laughed, "Yes, Ryanbeck asked for my help, and I ca right away. I didn’t expect it to be you. We haven’t seen each other for a long ti... It’s great to see you again, Sister Teresa."
Golden glimrs appeared in Teresa’s eyes as well. She spoke softly, "Yes, it’s been a long ti, Little Rod. You are already the Fire Son, your na resounding through Trolian. You are the strongest new star, a great hero of humanity. Your power has far surpassed mine; elder sister can no longer press you down and tear your clothes."
Her tone was full of regret, as if it was a pity that she could no longer do such a thing.
Rod felt a bit awkward. Once, there was a hidden branch involving the Spiritual Woman Group with many beautiful won, and Teresa especially liked to tear off his clothes while he was training, causing the won to watch in amusent. Now it felt like sothing from a previous Epoch.
"Uh, but now we can fight side by side, just as we promised before."
Teresa smiled, "Yes, as your follower behind you, after all, I am a strong Monarch, without the power of a Commander, I couldn’t keep up with you."
Rod nodded, "Thankfully, you took the leap that nobody else dared to take. Your courage really commands respect."
Teresa raised her eyes slightly, but before she could speak, Ryanbeck cut in: "Yes, Teresa is the bravest warrior in our Taboo Armant..."
In his mind, Asa imdiately said, "This man is lying. The Quantification wasn’t her intention; she most likely did it under his coercion. This path is unprecedented and extrely dangerous. He probably did it because of the resource conflict between you."
Rod’s face turned grim imdiately.
"Ryanbeck, I’ll give you one chance. If you don’t tell the truth, I can punch your head off, and Royal City won’t trouble . Replacing the Leader of Taboo Armant isn’t hard at all."
Ryanbeck’s face turned deathly pale at once. He could see the indifference and coldness in Rod’s eyes, obviously indicating that, to him, the re Leader of Taboo Armant was as insignificant as dust, with neither outstanding potential nor reputation, nor irreplaceable ability.
It wasn’t a threat, just a statent.
Upon realizing this, Ryanbeck’s psychological defenses collapsed imdiately. Like pouring beans from a bamboo tube, he told Rod everything that had happened.
It turned out that after receiving Rod’s support, the Taboo Armant still showed no improvent. anwhile, Great Priest gan’s Calier was highly effective in contrast, prompting Royal City to consider dismantling the organization, returning the Silver Oath to its pure role — suppressing the Abyss.
In order to continue, he had no choice but to take a risk, forcing Teresa into an unprepared Quantification. As long as an individual could erge from the White Spirit Inheriters who was a Commander, it proved this path was promising, and Royal City wouldn’t terminate the path.
But the ill-prepared Quantification failed from the start, with Teresa quickly descending into collapse. Ryanbeck had to seek help from Rod, which led to what transpired later.
After hearing it, Rod wasn’t surprised, as it aligned with what Asa said. It made sense for an Ancient Evil Thought versed in manipulation to deduce the ending from the start.
Although Ryanbeck’s actions weren’t a severe wrongdoing, forcing Teresa into danger was sothing Rod found very displeasing, so he said,
"Alright, I won’t hold you accountable, but Teresa will no longer be a mber of Taboo Armant from now on. She will join my Black Battle Group."
Ryanbeck’s face turned ashen imdiately: "This... this, Lord Rod, Teresa is my trump card..."
Rod looked at him coldly, "Do you have a problem with that?"
Ryanbeck bowed his head, wilting like a frost-bitten eggplant: "I, I understand."
Rod continued, "However, considering your rit, my material assistance will not cease. If you lack any soul material, you may co to . If there are new White Spirit Inheriters undergoing Quantification, you can find , and I will assure their ascension."
