Life After Prison

The following morning, Severin emerged from Diane’s room feeling reinvigorated. He fetched a bucket of cold well water to freshen up and soaked in the sunny weather with a pensive gaze.

“Another two days left…” Severin mumbled. had predicted a whirlwind of ruthlessness during the Starry Sky Battlespace, and he planned was to concoct some pills for his family before embarking on the arduous journey.

Since his breakthrough to paragon, Severin noticed a slight decrease in progress in his wives’ attainment levels. Diane, despite being the strongest among them after attaining level six supreme saint, was stuck in late-stage level six. She was still some ways away from making a breakthrough.

Felipe and the others, aided by the sixth-grade Crystal Spring Pill, were slowly catching up. They were already level five supreme saints. However, they still fell short of Diane and the girls. Such discrepancies in their strength levels pointed to their different talent levels.

His wives, along with Wuhlricht and Felipe, possessed element constitutions, putting them slightly lower than divine constitutions like himself and Karl-albeit not by much.

Meanwhile, Samuel and the remaining former Skyblue Sect elders were slightly less skilled, as they had only reached level four or level five supreme saint despite relying on the pills that he provided them.

Severin understood that geniuses were rare, and ordinary talents such as that of Samuel were the norm. With Diane widening the gap between them, they would be lucky to reach level eight or level nine supreme saint by the time Severin secured a breakthrough to level five paragon and was prepared to head to Midland.

As those thoughts lingering in his mind, Severin redirected his focus and decided to obtain some alchemical ingredients to use in crafting seventh-grade pills.

After breakfast, Severin made his way to the Alchemy Chamber.

Once he arrived at the entrance, Daniella’s voice beckoned him inside. “Come on in.”

A stream of light then glowed within the hall as Daniella appeared right beside Severin in a white robe.

“Greetings, Madam Daniella,” Severin greeted.

Severin came to the Alchemy Chamber to seek medicinal materials for the seventh-grade pills and also fulfill the task Oskar had instructed to him to do. The latter objective, in particular, was a requirement that he had to fulfill in exchange for receiving the Green Shield and Icicle Flame.

Daniella welcomed Severin warmly after knowing his desire to get materials for the seventh-grade Breakthrough Pills. As the Sixth Mountain’s peak master and an elder of the Alchemy Chamber, she had also received Oskar’s directive regarding Severin’s duty to supply seventh-grade Breakthrough Pills.

Sensing that Severin’s aura was that of a level third paragon, Daniella was in awe of what he had achieved and said in a somewhat envious tone, “How I wish I had your talent.”Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

If Severin’s rapid ascent from supreme saint to paragon could bring forth feelings of admiration from Daniella, then the ease in which he made a breakthrough within the levels of paragon was almost certain to elicit feelings of jealousy.
