Chapter 56: Chapter 54: All Laws Unite, Tier Ten Legendary

That was to be expected.

Putting the quality of the ingredients aside,

the chef at Ice Wolf Castle had been recruited from a small town in the Ice Wolf Domain.

In contrast, the inn’s chef was clearly much more professional, his culinary skills far surpassing those of the chef at Ice Wolf Castle.

It only took Roy five or six minutes to finish his breakfast. He then stood up and walked toward the inn’s main entrance.

Just as he was about to reach the entrance, he ran into Allen and Miria, who were just coming downstairs.

Roy took the initiative to greet them. "Good morning!"

"Morning! Have you had breakfast yet?"

Allen nodded and asked in return.

"I just finished. I’m about to go out for a walk."

Roy replied casually.

That’s what he said, but his true purpose wasn’t to take a casual stroll. He planned to visit the pharmacies in the Royal Capital to see if he could find any Alchemy Materials for Basic Potions.

Over the past few months, he hadn’t spent much time on Alchemy, so his Alchemy Level was still stuck at Tier Two.

Before deploying to the Tulip Domain, he intended to stock up on enough Alchemy Materials to conveniently craft Basic Potions during the war.

"Let’s go together. We were just about to head out to run some errands ourselves."

Allen said quickly upon hearing Roy’s response.

Roy didn’t want Allen and Miria to know he possessed the Alchemy Skill, so he shook his head and said, "That’s all right. I’m used to walking around by myself."

"Alright, then!"

Allen sighed, a helpless expression on his face.

Roy said no more and left the inn under their watchful eyes.

Once his figure disappeared from view, Miria frowned. "He’s definitely not just going out for a walk."

"What makes you say that?"

Allen looked at Miria, confused.

"A gut feeling!"

Miria replied with a serious expression.

Er...

Just as Allen was about to say something, Miria continued, "Go meet the Royal Capital’s contact person by yourself."

"Are you planning to follow him?"

Allen’s brow furrowed instantly.

Miria didn’t say a word, simply nodding.

"Is that really necessary?"

"It’ll be awkward if he finds out."

Allen said quickly.

"He won’t be able to spot me!"

Miria looked at Allen confidently.

Allen fell silent.

After several seconds, he continued, "I know you’re skilled at concealing your tracks and aura, but he’s not like the people you’ve assassinated before."

"He broke through to become a High Tier Knight after only half a year of Cultivation. He must have some extraordinary qualities that we don’t know about."

Seeing the serious look on Allen’s face, Miria first rolled her eyes at him, then said with a smile, "Since when did you become so naive? Do you really believe he only started his Cultivation Breathing Technique six months ago?"

"I’m not denying that it’s possible for an ordinary family to produce a genius, but he definitely isn’t one."

"If he were, he wouldn’t have been so resistant to the Cultivation Breathing Technique when he was twelve."

"The fact that the Old Baron didn’t force him to practice the Cultivation Breathing Technique proves that before the age of twelve, he showed no signs of being a cultivation prodigy."

"Otherwise, the Old Baron would never have stood by and watched him waste his talent."

"Before his coming-of-age banquet, how long had it been since you last saw him?"

Allen frowned and replied, "Three years. I saw him at the Old Baron’s funeral, and the next time was his coming-of-age banquet."

As soon as he finished, Miria continued, "You two went three years without seeing each other. How can you be sure he only started the Cultivation Breathing Technique a month before his coming-of-age ceremony, and not right after the Old Baron’s funeral?"

"If I’m not mistaken, he began the Cultivation Breathing Technique right after the Old Baron died."

"The reason he’s cooped up in Ice Wolf Castle all day is so that no one finds out he has already started his Cultivation Breathing Technique."

"As for why he and his brother would do this, it’s simple."

"On one hand, it’s to keep others from knowing the Wesley Clan’s true strength. On the other, it’s to build hype and create the illusion that a cultivation prodigy has appeared in the Wesley Clan."

"And from the looks of it, their plan has been very successful."

"Even you believe he’s a once-in-a-generation prodigy, to say nothing of everyone else."
