“You’ve offended Heavenfall Pavilion, and now you’ve provoked Bloodbane Palace. I’m afraid you won’t be able to stay in level two any longer…” Jemima let out a sigh as spoke.
“I don’t plan on staying in level two for too long. With my abilities, I can easily reach level three. I’m determined to break through level three. Once I do that, no one in the celestial realm would dare to mess with me!” Jared exclaimed.
At level three and below, Jared found himself friendless, even Arthur didn’t care for him. He had to rely on himself for everything.
However, once had broken through level three, had quite a few friends in the celestial realm, Whalreth, Baal, Hadad, Divinus, and Hellion.
There were also Infinides and Leonidas, both of whom were immortals of Roaring Storm Monastery in level four.
Additionally, while ascending the Celestial Stairway, had won over Kishor, Ararat, Zevon, and Sidney. These individuals were all immortals from realms higher than level three, and they had pledged to serve for three hundred years.
By the time Jared ascended beyond level three, wouldn’t need to be so cautious anymore, as was no longer a target wherever went.
“Stop blowing your own trumpet…” Jemima rolled eyes at Jared. She found it hard to believe that Jared was capable of knowing anyone beyond level three.
Jared merely chuckled, not uttering another word. It was only natural for Jemima to think was boasting.

Back at Bloodbane Palace, Nymeria was seated in the grand hall, with the four men in black trembling in fear as they knelt before her.
“Did you say that Jack was killed by Jared?” Nymeria asked with an icy tone.
“Yes, we saw it with our own eyes. There’s no way we could be wrong!” declared the leader of the men in black.
“Why? Why would Jack go looking for Jared? I don’t remember them even knowing each other, right? Moreover, I’ve already instructed Vastis to spread the word that no one is allowed to cause trouble for Jared!”
Nymeria began to exude a murderous aura, causing the men in black to tremble even more intensely.
The leader of the men in black cautiously reported, “M-Mr. Jack had heard from Heavenfall Pavilion that Jared possessed a magical item from the ancient ruins. That’s why attacked Jared…”
“What a fool!” Nymeria suddenly slammed hand down in frustration, causing the table in front of to shatter.
Vastis stepped forward and advised, “Ms. Nymeria, please calm down. Mr. Jack is your younger brother after all…”
“Hmph, I don’t have such a foolish brother!” Nymeria narrowed eyes. “It’s clear that Heavenfall Pavilion is trying to leverage on others to do their dirty work. I can’t believe that fool actually fell for it. Who exactly from Heavenfall Pavilion instigated Jack?!”
“It was Mr. Draycott. He was the one who informed Mr. Jack about the magical items,” the leader of the men in black hastily responded.
“It seems like Heavenfall Pavilion wants to use us to test Jared’s abilities. Vastis, you must find a way to teach Dexton from Heavenfall Pavilion a lesson. We need to show them that we at Bloodbane Palace are not fools to be taken advantage of!” Nymeria spoke with a chilling tone.
Vastis slightly furrowed his brows and said, “Ms. Nymeria, now that Mr. Jack is dead, how are we to explain this to Bloodbane Lord when leaves solitary training?”
“Blame it on his own stupidity. No one else is at fault here. Besides, my father has more than one son. It wouldn’t matter If a few were gone,” Nymeria said in a casual tone.
Although Jack was younger brother, they were not full siblings. He was the child of Dincelius, Bloodbane Lord, and another woman.
Bloodbane Lord had several women with whom shared intimate relationships. Hence, the number of children fathered was quite high.
Since Nymeria was the oldest and most powerful, not to mention clever, was entrusted with the affairs of Bloodbane Palace after Dincelius had sealed himself away for solitary training.
“Ms. Nymeria, what should we do with these individuals?” Vastis inquired, pointing at the four men in black.
“What good are they if they can’t even protect their own master? Die…”
With a swift wave of hand, Nymeria caused the four men in black to vanish into thin air, not even having the chance to utter a scream.
