Chapter 189: Richard’s Friend

The Next Day;

Tyler left the Ice Dimension with three coins and visited the nearest Star Plasma Pavilion.

This branch was located quite far away from Coastal City. He wasn’t trying to hold back his cultivation.

So, the guards immediately noticed his cultivation and called out their manager.

Tyler was taken to a separate room and asked to wait for the arrival of the branch manager.

He didn’t have to wait long.

A minute later, a middle-aged man wearing a black suit walked in and extended his hand.

"Welcome to the Star Plasma Pavilion, Sir!"

He didn’t recognize Tyler, but he felt his strength. So, the tone he used while talking was quite respectful.

"My name is Tyler Grant, and I am here for a package."

He said while taking out three coins belonging to the Star Plasma Pavilion.

When the branch manager saw the three coins, his eyes widened in shock. He controlled his emotions and said.

"Please wait a minute! I will talk to my superior."

He quickly took out his phone and made a call. He explained everything to his superior and nodded several times.

After he cut off the call, he turned towards Tyler and said.

"Sir, my superior has sent the package, but it will take ten minutes. Would you like to have a tea while waiting?"

Tyler shook his head.

"No, thank you! By the way, I want to buy a Spear Technique. Do you have any?"

The branch manager hurriedly replied.

"Of course, we have plenty of spear techniques. Let me guide you!"

He said as he took Tyler to another room on the fifth floor, where he showed several bookshelves.

He went through several scrolls before picking three specific scrolls.

"Sir, these three are the best Spear Techniques we have."

Tyler took the three scrolls and opened them.

[Azure Sky Spear Technique]

It was a special fourth-grade spear technique that was capable of piercing through a mountain with a single thrust.

The power of the mana gathered at the tip would transform into a destructive beam of blue energy.

Because this technique was a one-shot art, he felt like he could master it in just a few days.

[Jade Snake Spear Technique]

This technique was rather complete. It consisted of nine different styles of spear movements, each connected to the others.

Once unleashed, they could not only be used individually for defense and offense, but when all nine moves were used, the power would multiply by five times.

This kind of improvement was so massive that Tyler was immediately attracted to it.

And those nine moves were also perfect for him to understand and practice spearmanship.

[Blazing Sun Spear Technique]

Unlike the first two, this technique was attribute-based. It transformed his mana into flames that could be used for spearmanship.

There were a total of three moves: a thrust, a sweep, and a defensive move.

Looking at those techniques, Tyler thought for a moment and took all three of them.

The manager showed no dissatisfaction, but he did have a question in his mind.

"Sir, can I ask you something?"

Tyler glanced at him and nodded.

"Why have I not heard about you before? Possessing one coin could be a coincidence or even stealing, but you have three coins."

"These can’t be stolen; otherwise, the Pavilion would know about it. But I know every single founder of the Pavilion."

"None of them have the surname Grant!"

Hearing that, Tyler thought for a moment and asked.

"Do you know about the Grant Family of this country?"

"Huh? Grant Family? Why have I not heard about the Grant Family in this country? Are they hidden families?"

The manager asked with some confusion.

Tyler froze.

He would be an idiot if he didn’t realize what his father had done.

He erased the memories of his family from the minds of others.

He was speechless. He couldn’t imagine that solving the problem for his family meant just erasing their memories.

But considering the technique of his parents, that made a lot of sense.

’Looks like I need to visit the family soon.’

Tyler thought to himself before answering.

"Yeah! I come from a hidden family. But I am also the head of the TG Company."

The manager’s eyes lit up.

"Sir, you mean the company that Daisy is running?"

"You know Daisy?"

Tyler looked at him with a surprised expression.

The manager nodded.

"Everyone from our Pavilion knows about Daisy. She is the only manager who became a Branch Manager with the strength of a Warrior."

"Her work ethic has always been impressive."

Hearing that, Tyler smirked

"That’s right! She has managed to build the TG Company so far."

They talked for a while until his package arrived.

It came in a metal box. He took the box and said goodbye to the branch manager before leaving the Star Plasma Pavilion.

—————————

Somewhere in the Central Continent;

"So, he has finally arrived. If I am not wrong, he is only eighteen, right?"

A woman’s voice rang inside the room.

"Yeah! But that makes sense, doesn’t it? His father was no less talented than he."

A male voice rang soon after.

"But it has only been eight months since his awakening. It seems like he has perfectly inherited the talent of his parents."

"Tsk! My memories of the Grant Family are fading away. If I remember correctly, he created the TG Company and that weapon which killed a Grandmaster."

"No wonder they would send a Lord to kill him."

The woman’s voice sounded quite surprised.

Inside the room, a lady wearing a tight white dress that barely hid her breasts and lower body sat on the edge of the bed.

On the bed, a man with a naked chest lay.

He looked at his woman and said.

"He managed to somehow transfer all the people to another place. Maybe it is something his father left for him."

"No! I understand, Richard."

The woman looked at the man and said.

"He won’t leave any protective measures for his son. He would rather let his son die and use Time Technique to resurrect him than save him."

Hearing that, the man shuddered.

"Damn! That guy is crazy. No wonder he was able to leave behind his six-year-old kid for no reason."

The woman rolled her eyes.

"What do you mean no reason? He has gone to the Spirit Realm. When are we going there?"

"Let’s wait! I want Alex to meet him."

The man sighed.

The woman narrowed his eyes and said.

"You want Alex to be his friend? You know we don’t need to do that, right? You are Richard’s sworn brother. There is no need to force this kind of friendship."

The man shook his head and said.

"You don’t understand men, Mera. If I am in any kind of trouble, Richard would do everything in his power to save me."

"But he won’t do the same for my son or my father. He would help if he can, but he won’t put in the same effort."

"For us, brotherhood is important. If we are not connected by blood, our relationship will remain strong."

"If Alex becomes his friend, he can slowly develop the same relationship that I have with Richard."

"That boy has more potential than Richard."

He moved closer to Mera and placed his hand around her waist.

"Baby, there is a secret that he has not told you. There is a special energy in the universe that can improve a technique."

"I can ask him for that energy for you and me, but I can’t ask for that for our son. Because that would only make me look like a leech."

Hearing his words, Mera couldn’t help but sigh.

"There is no need to think so much, Hal. Alex has his own life. Just like Richard, sometimes, you need to trust your children."

Hal rolled his eyes.

"I am thinking for that brat. Do you know how reckless that kid is? He dared to go to the Dragon Clan to steal the Egg of the Fire Dragon."

"If it wasn’t for my reputation, that bastard Moxu would’ve killed him."

Mera chuckled.

He was indeed reckless, but she knew where he inherited that recklessness from.

This was also the reason why Hal and Richard became such good friends.

One was reckless from the outside but very cunning and thoughtful from the inside.

The other was thoughtful from the outside but restless from the inside.

Richard had caused a lot of trouble on all five continents, and his partner in crime was always Hal.

But one day, he suddenly came to them and told them he was planning on going to the Spirit Realm.

This took them by surprise, but that was also the first time they had seen him so serious.

Mera knew something bad had happened to them, but Richard and Alice were already stronger than them.

So, she didn’t know how to help them.

That’s why they had remained in the Lower Realm for so long instead of going to the Spirit Realm.

Although they couldn’t help their friends, they promised to help their son.
