265 Ch. 265 'Farewell'

"Is the master that strong?"

"Yes. Even way stronger than me. I don't even know which one is stronger, between him or Sir Zephyr."

Niken was taken aback when she heard this statement. To her knowledge, Zephyr was the most potent wizard in this world. She had not heard of anyone capable of defeating Zephyr, but Kazuto told her that he didn't know which one was stronger between the mix-blood wizard and the beastmaster?

"Why are you talking like that? Hasn't anyone been able to win against Sir Zephyr all this time?"

"That is true. But that's only because the beastmaster has never challenged him. Even though Sir Zephyr has more than two magic circles, he is only a mix-blood offspring. While the beastmaster… I feel the energy of two purebloods within him."

"Two pureblood energies?"

"Wizard energy as well as a werewolf."

"What you mean is, he's both a pureblood wizard and a werewolf? How is it possible? Each offspring could only inherit one of its ancestors."

"The birth of a person who has two pureblood genes is rare, but it doesn't mean it is impossible to happen. Usually, the offspring of a pureblood will follow one of the genes shared by both parents or become a mix-blood, which only inherits half of the paternal or maternal gene. But there are rare cases where the offspring inherit strong genes from both parents. This child is called a hybrid."

"A hybrid?"

"Correct. No matter how strong a wizard or Elementalist is, they won't be able to defeat a hybrid that easily. His power, his strength, and his cultivation are twice as strong as the strongest one in this world."

"Kazuto, you..."

"Don't worry too much." Kazuto understood what Niken was thinking. "I will neither challenge him nor fight him."

That's why Kazuto didn't want to hone his magic skills and turn the white cub into an adult. As soon as White Alpha became an adult and was ready to have a lifetime contract bond with him, Kazuto would have to face the current beastmaster, and the two of them will fight until one of them dies.

For now, Kazuto preferred to avoid the beastmaster and focused more on honing his Elementalist abilities.

"Then, what should we do about the dark beasts that enter this world?"

"We have no other choice but to fight them. I hope the Ace force will deal with it immediately before there are many victims."

Niken nodded in agreement while letting Kazuto lead her head against the man's broad chest. She sighed with a content heart when she felt the warmth of her lover's embrace that enveloped her petite figure.

"How about you? What made you wake up?"

"I felt something."

"Something?"

"I don't know what, but I feel restless. I feel like someone is coming to me, or maybe at this time, I am coming to it. To be honest, I do not know what I am feeling right now."

Kazuto patted Niken's back gently and rested his chin on top of the girl's head.

"I won't let anyone touch you. Don't worry."

Niken's eyes grew cloudy at this.

'I won't let anyone touch you.' How many times has she heard this statement? In the end, the person who said this was severely injured and left her.

Niken hated herself for being useless and getting weaker as time went on.

She did not know that there were so many people who could be hostile to her. Right now, her mind is already occupied with thinking of a way to defeat Muyun and the white knight. But it turned out that many people were after her apart from the two of them.

Even Sir Zephyr, who seemed kind and helpful to her, had the possibility of wanting to kill her brother.

The person who looks like a friend turns out to be an enemy worries Niken. In the future, will she have to face her own friends when her friends change sides?

Meanwhile, in the VIP car room where Lionel was sleeping, someone visited the man.

"Lionel, Lionel."

Lionel opened his eyes while blinking several times before finally seeing his best friend's face with a confused look.

"Danzel? What are you doing here? How did you come here?"

Because Lionel just woke up from his sleep, his brain was not functioning as it should. But when he realized that Danzel's body looked transparent, covered in the green glow, he understood how that man suddenly appeared inside the sky train carriage traveling at high speed.

"Is it time already?"

"Yes. My equipment had left me and is in the new Elementalist Knight's hands. I came here to say farewell to you."

"What about the others? Have you told them?" Lionel remembered Danzel staying in Bieger to lead the young Elementalist knights to find their power source. He wondered if his friend had told the Elementalist Knights about his retirement.

"Not yet. I just told them my job was done and I was going to a faraway place. They will find out when the new green knight came to the academy."

"How can you be sure your successor will come to the academy?"

Danzel laughed as he saw Lionel's eyebrow raised as he looked at him. "Lionel, you will meet him in the southern country later. I can feel his energy from here.

"…" Hhhh… Lionel didn't know whether this news was good or bad.

"My time is running out. Goodbye, my brother."

Lionel gave a thin smile while looking straight into his best friend's eyes. "Farewell, my brother."

Just as Lionel finished saying his farewell, Danzel's figure disappeared, and he returned being alone in this room.

An Elementalist knight who had just been deserted by his equipment would have one chance to be where he wanted in an instant.

Danzel took this opportunity to meet him so that he could say his farewell.

Lionel was honored to have this farewell, and he will never forget the man he has been with for decades.

He hopes that Danzel could find someone who can fill his heart in his new destination and live happily there.
