Emmanuel definitely intended to deal with Gautier, but he didn’t yet have the

excuse or time. So, he simply reassured his sister, “As soon as the opportunity

présents itself, I’ll make sure to kill him. Better to eliminate the threat now

than let it fester.”

He didn’t plan to discuss it with Mackenzie. Instead, he would act first and

inform her later. While eliminating Gautier might bring some complications-

like leaving the branch office without a manager–someone so deeply

scheming couldn’t be allowed to remain.

Meanwhile, at the Lannister Estate, Hank was standing guard outside a room

where Gwain was in seclusion, practicing the Dragon Tome. Hank’s job was to

ensure no one disturbed him.

It had been three days since Gwain went into seclusion. Hank had no idea

how Gwain’s training was progressing, but word had reached him that in

three days, Yorick would be arriving in Zovince. His plan was to challenge and

efeat the Eight Supreme Grandmasters before facing the Lannister family.

With the whereabouts of the family patriarch unknown, the Lannister family

would undoubtedly need Gwain to step up. If Gwain couldn’t master the

Dragon Tome in time, they’d be humiliated and potentially lose their standing

in Zovince overnight.

“Hank, how’s Mr. Gwain doing?” Wyatt Lannister suddenly appeared,

addressing Hank.

“Oh, look who’s finally here to check on Mr. Gwain,” Hank sneered, his attitude

sour. He hadn’t forgotten that Wyatt had kept his distance for almost two

weeks after returning to Zovince. Like many of the other younger Lannisters,

Hank suspected Wyatt was eyeing the position of heir.

Cut the nonsense!” Wyatt shot back coldly. “If I had any ambition to take

over, may I never die a peaceful death! Besides, even if I wanted it, I’m not

capable. My talent doesn’t come close to Mr. Gwain’s.”

“Why have you been avoiding him like the other young Lannisters then?” Hank

demanded.

“I’m not going to discuss that. The situation right now is too complicated the

Martial Saint is coming, elections are happening, and the West End is dealing

with disasters and bandits. All of Chanaea is in turmoil, and every faction in

the Lannister family has its own agenda. It’s a mess…” Wyatt rambled for a bit

before getting to his point. “I came to check on Mr. Gwain’s progress.

Historically, for the Lannisters to survive chaotic times, we’ve always needed

a leader who could stand strong, but right now, the family is in a precarious

position.”

“Yeah, I’m worried about that too,” Hank admitted, now that he was sure

Wyatt had no ill intentions toward Gwain. “Mr. Gwain’s reputation exceeds his

current strength. Frankly, he’s not only unprepared to face a Martial Saint-

he’s not even on Emmanuel’s level.”

They had all been present in Eldoria at the Quill family residency when they

saw firsthand the terrifying power of Emmanuel’s strikes. If Gwain had been in

Emmanuel’s place that day, he wouldn’t have been able to produce such

overwhelming force. They underestimated Emmanuel strategically, but

tactically, they took him very seriously.

Click.

As they spoke, the door to the room suddenly opened. Gwain stepped out,

and both Hank and Wyatt rushed forward to greet him.

“Mr. Gwain, you’re out! How’s your progress with the Dragon Tome?” Hank

asked eagerly.

TEMU

Wyatt quickly noticed something was different about Gwain. His aura had

changed, becoming much colder than before. His once refined and elegant

demeanor had been replaced with a steely, almost chilling presence,

especially in his eyes–they no longer held the warmth of a gentleman.

“Heh, I can feel my internal strength has grown considerably. If I could

practice the complete set, I’d be truly invincible!” Gwain said, lifting his hands

and feeling the surge of power within him.

“That’s incredible, Mr. Gwain! If we can capture Roselynn or kill Emmanuel and

get Gautier to hand over the second half of the Dragon Tome, once you’ve

mastered it, you’ll have nothing to fear–not Yorick nor anyone else in the

world!” Hank shared in Gwain’s excitement.

“How about testing your strength first, Mr. Gwain?” Wyatt suggested,

remaining level–headed.

He had two motives. First, he wanted to gauge how much stronger Gwain

had become. Second, he wanted to see if there were any flaws in his training.”

Something felt a bit off to him.

Alright!” Gwain agreed, eager to put his newfound power to the test.

However, half an hour later, after smashing stones and trees in the backyard,

Gwain found himself clenching his teeth in frustration. What Emmanuel had

figured out in just one night took Gwain three days and nights of intense

practice to realize–he had raw power but couldn’t fully use it. His bottleneck

was significant: no matter how much power he built up, the output was

limited. His endurance might have improved, but against someone like

Yorick, he would still be defeated within three moves.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Gwain. It’s likely because you’ve only practiced half of the

Dragon Tome. The fact that you’ve made progress in just three days is Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

ure enough, Gwain gradually calmed down, though he still gritted his teeth.

“D“mn that Gaution! He insists I have to take down Ernmanuel before he’ll give

me the second half. But right now, I might not even be able to defeat him!”

Wyatt was relieved that Gwain still had enough clarity to realize his limits. If

he had rushed off to confront Emmanuel without thinking, it would likely have

ended in humiliation.

“Mr. Gwain, we could go after Roselynn instead,” Hank suggested. “She’s a

much easier target than her brother.”

“Good idea!” Gwain praised him.

“What? Someone actually dared bully you?!” Hank’s temper flared instantly.

Although he acted as a loyal retainer to Gwain, in Zovince, Hank was a figure

to be reckoned with. As a first–class martial retainer of the Lannister family,

few would dare mess with his fiancee. The last time a clueless scion offended

Violet, Hank broke the guy’s legs, and the scion’s father even came personally

to apologize.

“Yes, it happened at Empire Heights Mall in Zone 3. You have to come and

teach them a lesson!” Violet continued sobbing.

“I’ll be there right away!” Hank promised without hesitation. But after hanging

up, Wyatt chuckled at him. “Weren’t we supposed to help Mr. Gwain find

Chapter 2055 Gwain Emerges From Seclusion

Roselynn Lowe? Or are you hoping to find her at your fiancee’s side?”

“Uh… well…” Hank fumbled for a response, caught between duties.

“Go ahead. When I find Roselynn, I’ll let Mr. Gwain know that you were off

playing hooky!” Wyatt teased before walking away.

Hank sighed. He had already promised Violet, so he couldn’t back out now.

Besides, it wouldn’t take long to handle things at the mall, and searching for

Roselynn wasn’t exactly an urgent task. He decided to deal with Violet

problem first and then focus on finding Roselynn afterward.
