Chapter 544 - Inspecting the Island (1/2)

Megara held a bitter expression as he looked towards Kevin in front of him. He was pretty sure that he could win, but the fight just now proved to him that Kevin was not weak at all. His eyes held deep hatred that he hurriedly concealed again.

”Many thanks for the pointer, Clan Head.”

Kevin nodded nonchalantly and moved his sword away. He walked back to the group of people on the side. ”Let's have some rest.”

”Yes, Boss.”

As Kevin and the others walked away, Megara picked up his metal rod and slammed it on the ground. He felt rather angry and annoyed.

Why?

Why did he still lose against that man? He had painstakingly trained his body like a madman, but he still couldn't defeat Kevin. It was so vexing that he wished for nothing but throwing tantrums.

”Elder Megara?” one of the men asked worriedly.

”I'm fine,” Megara answered curtly. He stood up and inspected his metal rod. As it was made using one of the strongest metals in this world, there was hardly any damage to his weapon. However, he still remembered the feeling when his metal rod clashed with Kevin's sword.

It was very heavy. The weight of Kevin's sword was too heavy.

'Can normal people achieve that large improvement in their strength?' he mused to himself as he walked away. His real plan had not over yet. If his strength alone was not enough, he still has other means he could do.

Megara stared straight to the front, his eyes glinted with maliciousness. No one would be able to sit in that position if it was not him.

…

Later that afternoon, another group of elders came. The island turned livelier because they were busy arranging the event that would take place the next day. Many of them were assigned for some tasks while the rest of them have other things to do.

”Rei, are you familiar with this place?” Patrick asked when he guided the young girl to the buildings.

Kanae shook her head. She had only been here a couple of times in the past and each time, she never had the chance to look around. Aside from the building areas over here, she has never seen the other part of the island.

”I'll take you to my most favorite place. Follow after me.”

Patrick grinned and walked away. The other people quickly made way when Patrick passed by their side as if this man was a plague. No one was brave enough to challenge this young man because they knew the bitter end everyone who tried would have. Unless they have strength far surpassed Patrick, no one dared to challenge this man.

Kanae followed after Patrick calmly. They walked past the building areas to the rocky areas on the east. Although this island was not too big, it still held more parts that were filled with nature completely. The west and north side of the island was completely forest as only the south side of the island that was turned into buildings.

The rocky areas grew steeper and higher before it stopped in a rather sharp end. Patrick sat down on one of the rocks as he grinned.

”Welcome to the secret cliff.”

”Secret cliff?” Kanae asked curiously.

”Yes, this place is covered by the building and trees, so no one knows that this is actually a cliff to the sea,” Patrick pointed to the east, where the rock ended. ”If you fall there, you have to face the violent wave because it's quite far from the beach.”
