81 2 Years Later

A 175 cm tall young man left a large five-floors red pagoda with many tiered eaves. His black short hair was newly cut while his blue eyes looked charming to the female around him. That was a perfect complement with his sharp chin, long slim nose, and deep eyebrow. He wore a black robe with mountain painting on it.

A smile decorated the pale white skin on his beautiful handsome face. While he fanned himself with an expensive fan with a dragon image. His sharp gaze continued to look around for beautiful ladies. Nevertheless, he only managed to find fat merchants and other young master and ladies from his family.

The man was Trevon. He would be seventeen years old this year. After he left the building he turned his back to see the big pagoda behind and read the signboard above the entrance. [McArthur Redwood Pavilion]. The young master smiled before he walked towards one of the large wagons which lined up in front of the pavilion.

The wagon was one of the fifty wagons departed from Redwood City towards Bluestar City. Trevon looked around the city which had become his home for the last two years. Redwood City was the place where he had met the Rabbink, and the place where he defeated a Rank 3 Demon. He was the number one young warrior during the beast wave even beating the famous Leon Redwood.

Trevon walked from the first floor towards the second floor. He entered a special room for him.

"Hahahaha. I am finally free from this city. Free! Free! Free!" Trevon jumped around inside his cabin. The wagon moved up and down followed Trevon's jumps.

The Alogos which pulled the wagon frowned. [That increases our burden.] They angrily thought. However, they didn't know which stupid human did that.

[He is still the same spoiled young master.] Master Rabbink surrendered to its destiny. [Why did my main body decide that it was his destiny to become an apprentice God?] The Rabbink lamented. These past two years Trevon didn't manage to grow much.

Trevon with his heroic contribution in the demon beast waves was the number one young hero in the city. He also had managed to defeat all other spoiled young masters in Redwood in the scholarly fields. The young master was the undisputed number one young master in the city. Golden Hand Trevon had spread his territory to Redwood City.

His circle of friends in Redwood consisted of numerous other spoiled young masters. They thought him as a senior brother in the group. That was both for his heroic achievement in the battle and also his famed contribution to the brotherhood. Yet, all young ladies from cultivation families avoided him like a disaster.

That was also because of his contribution. Trevon had managed to visit all those unruly women. Golden Hand Trevon even created the first-ever ranking of Redwood Temporary Girlfriends. The book was the bible for those spoiled young masters. Beating Master Rabbink's novel readers numbers in circulation.

Any ladies who entered the top one hundred ranks had their voting power increased. He became the most important young master for those ladies. Golden Hand Trevon even added more information about the ladies in the book with every new update.

The brotherhood members shared the newly updated list using peer to peer writing hidden from the city law regulation. Many old elders from cultivation families also secretly collected his updated list. All members of the brotherhood in Redwood thought the book as their savior and bible.

During his research, Trevon also managed to increase his painting ability. He became a Master Painter and a Basic Spirit Painter. For the last two years, Trevon visited those girls and painted many Byeontae's paintings. However, his superstar, Grand Master Vale somehow decided to extend his stay in the capital.

The famed Byeontae Painter said in a written letter that he had some responsibility to teach the lost lambs in the capital. The grand master also mentioned Trevon that he had too many ladies to paint in the capital. This made Trevon couldn't wait to see the Grand Master's new collections.

Trevon's lifestyle didn't change without any impending danger before his eyes. He was slacking in completing Destiny Missions and Job Missions. During these two years, his Scout skill was only at Lv 12 while his Weakness Scan was at Lv 3. The lazy young master only used Scout on beautiful women while using Weakness Scan on the male genius chosen that he met.

With the impending doom of beast waves, he managed to level the recruitment job from Lv 1 to Lv 11 in three weeks. However, he couldn't level it to Lv 14 in these past two years. He was only a Recruiter level 13 after two years. The young master had become too lazy from peaceful life again, while the chance to level up was smaller the higher one's job level was.

Master Rabbink really wanted to call some big beast waves again. However, it needed to consider the balance. The city couldn't survive another big beast wave.

Other than his skill, Trevon's martial arts didn't have many improvements. He purchased even more instant learning martial arts during these two years. Trevon learned close to three thousand martial arts. Of course, all were at Man mastery level.

Trevon only managed to increase his 'Piercing Wind Dash' and '1.000 Holy Flashes' to Sky level. Trevon practiced those two since he loved to use both martial arts. His Piercing Wind Dash was a good method to escape from sudden danger. While his '1.000 Holy Flashes' was used to show off.

During his past two years, Trevon's lifestyle consisted of playing with his spoiled young masters' circle, painting some unruly women, taking things from random passersby using his family name, training some fruit merchants, pointing table in his gallery restaurant, and visiting theaters or arena with some temporary girlfriends.

However, Trevon couldn't bet in the arena anymore. His family had taken the arena from Redwood Family as the payment for the gambling. They also paid some extra money to the Master Creator outside the betting agreement.

In the arena, he only visited the place for watching some fights. He didn't come for those bloody cultivator fights. The young master came for female and female attendants fights while the aspiring painter painted their hot fights.

This Rabbink had always lamented why The Light didn't create another Female God Rabbink. So, it could understand why Trevon loved to watch those boring fights.

[Sigh...] Master Rabbink could only sigh during those two years watching Trevon. If it published the story, it would be a fang-less Erotica. In order to prevent, the sadness became a stress. Master Rabbink used his winning money to research some foods in Redwood City and a few villages around.

Master Rabbink's researches managed to vitalize the dying city. For a few months, the city had a scarcity of foods. [Yes, the scarcity is because of a demon beast.]

The Rabbink understood that after a demon beast wave, there would be a scarcity. However, it was deadly in Redwood. All biggest restaurant had to close its door, while their chefs went towards the doctors every three days. The restaurants' chefs also received some training from Master Rabbink. [They will have higher stamina and stronger arms. Gwahahaha.]

After that, the food industry was booming. Many talented chefs, breeder, and farmers sold their products into the city. The dying City became famous for the culinary spot in the south part of Heavenly Phoenix. Some gourmet tourists went to experience food pilgrim in Redwood City.

This new fame as a culinary spot was important to Redwood City. The beast waves had brought a huge destruction to the city. Redwood City's citizen experienced very huge casualties that day. An official report said that over ten million people missing and even more were fatally injured.

A huge number of buildings needed to be reconstructed. Almost a quarter of the city were totally destroyed by the demon beast. Millions of beasts ran around the city during those two hours. The biggest beast could easily topple a cheap building made from a formation.

The problem was cultivators had an unorganized defense after the tower fell. While the beast happily enjoyed their revenges against defenseless humans. Even Zhang Lang's retreat order wasn't directly followed by those beasts. The grudge between demon beasts and humans had been inherited from their ancestors who fought for the territory.

A new peace pact had been established by the Redwood Family with the help of Imperial Families. Redwood Forest's demon beasts took some extra territories from the frontline villages.

Zhang Lang hadn't appeared in public again since the waves. Even the demon beasts, which came to the negotiation, were his trusted subordinates. The result was the loss of human's territory. Afterall, the Demons Beast almost managed to destroy the entire city if not because of Zhang Lang's sudden retreat order.

While Redwood City lamented its destruction. McArthur Family and Imperial Families became the biggest winner of this catastrophe. They managed to get more shares of the Redwood City.

Redwood City needed much capital to rebuild itself. Replacing the destroyed Demon Beast Repelling Crystal was the most expensive project. At that time, Redwood Family's financial condition was bad. The family just lost its Arena because a young master gambled and won too many in a row in the arena.

The City itself took one year to get a better crystal. Demon Beast Repelling Crystal was rare and expensive. Buying the crystal, transporting the crystal, and hiring a formation builder to set it took many resources and times. Redwood City's new crystal could even repel Primary Rank 3 demon beasts.

The better crystal increased the land value of the destroyed areas. McArthur family and Imperial Families had purchased the many destroyed buildings and lands at a very low price. Most owners were missing in the first place. Some lucky vassal families and merchants also managed to gain huge profit in this project. A destroyed area suddenly became the safest area. Information was the biggest advantage.

The Rabbink managed to increase its research fund by making Trevon used its winning money to purchase some lots on the destroyed areas. A destiny reading Rabbink could easily cheat when it wanted to make money.

Other than the land, the city share, and the arena. McArthur family was the hidden winner. The appearance of Michael and other powerful Grand Elders brought a huge prestige for the McArthur Family. They arrived when the humanity needed them. While nobody realized they were the one who made Zhang Lang decided on a total war for the beast waves.

They also managed to gain a unique crystal from the meteorite. Grand Elder Owen's gamble to destroy the meteor using blazing talismans detonation was a success. He managed to get the inner part of the meteorite. A small rainbow crystal was found inside. The family made this a secret project to mutate more demon beasts. Nevertheless, only this Rabbink knew that the crystal would lose power after ten thousand years.

On the other hand, the family and Redwood Family lost the Star Stones mining area. The demon beasts considered the meteorite as a sacred item. They took Star Stones and built a coarse temple out of them.

Master Rabbink decided to turn that coarse temple into an inheritance dungeon. It picked one of the many inheritances that should resurface in this planet. The Rabbink only decided the place and made them appear faster. This resulted in some extra kowtows from the demon beasts for this Rabbink.

The dungeon became demon beasts' nests and also invited some warriors to visit the dungeon. However, the only problem was the Rabbink's setting for the Dungeon Core.

[Did I set it for Peak Rank 4 or Top Rank 4?] Master Rabbink tried to remember. [Well, some cultivators might curse this Rabbink in Yama's Palace. Gwahahaha.]

Between McArthur family and Master Creator, the family decided Trevon as the connector. Master Creator only would communicate with Trevon. While the family made a secret store where Trevon could communicate to sell. To the outsider, nobody would connect the store with McArthur family. The family was afraid of having a direct connection to the master.

Michael gave Trevon an elevated status in the family because of this connection. At the elder assembly, Trevon increased status was mentioned because of his contribution during the beast waves. He got a treatment similar to a chosen in term of access, resources, and contribution points. The last was Trevon's biggest gain, he had managed to evade some punishments by using those. However, Trevon would have to improve his cultivation if he wanted to become an official chosen.

Trevon sold some weapons and armors through the secret store. He didn't charge the family with a huge margin. The young master only took one percent profit, which resulted in the family managed to obtain a big number of Dark Demon Slayer and other artifacts. Other than the profit, Trevon's position in the family was elevated.

The family added some protection for those Dark Demon Slayers. An encryption inscription was added to the sword to prevent the inscription fall into other powers. Master Rabbink didn't care about this since the Grand Elders of the family had personally come to pay their kowtows. Meanwhile Trevon was still a free student.

For the martial art light ball, it wasn't that popular with the family. The family was afraid that some tricks were inside the ball. They decided to wait and to research the ball further in limited quantity. Trevon knew it would take ages before a traditional family could accept this new system.

With the huge amount of money, Trevon spent some to have fun and to purchase many toys at auction. Those auctions could be said as Trevon's private auction. At least another part was used to increase his universe core. He managed to merge his two balls into an upper ventral region of a humanoid body. His Core Level was Lv 4. Yet, it was still too slow for this Rabbink's taste.

Since Trevon unlocked Core Lv 4, he had completed Lesson 3 and Lesson 4.

Lesson 3 was added when he reached Core Lv 3. This gave Trevon the ability in his universe core to take a demon beast and plants inside and outside his universe. The demon beast would forget their memory about the universe, included Nana.

She would think it was just another hidden place in her memory which she didn't know the portal. Only a demon could remember this secret. However, Trevon would need higher level universe core to unlock the enter and exit option for a human, demon, and similar races.

This option was added as the [Transfer Demon Beast] and [Transfer Plant] in the Core Management. His 'Planet Making' skill also got new terrain. It was desert terrain, but he hadn't used that.

After completing this lesson, Trevon got a reward from Master Rabbink. His reward for completing this lesson was one special Destiny Energy. This was the same special energy obtained by Trevon after he completed the Forced Mission.

Special Destiny Energy could allow an apprentice God to increase his level by one. This was the highest reward from destiny path. While it seemed useless in the beginning, it would be very valuable at the end of the journey. Cultivation was never easy.

Trevon had already used his special energy since the special energy had a time limit before they disappeared. This time limit was to prevent some apprentices to stock those special energies. Else they might use them to level like eating candy during the last few difficult levels.

Master Rabbink also told him about the reward of Core Lv 4. The Rabbink would make him meeting his love life faster. The young master became more interested and decided to complete the Core Lv 4 faster. However, leveling a universe core had never been easy. While he could level his universe core to Lv 3 in three months, it took Trevon one year later to reach core Lv 4.

When he reached Core Lv 4, Trevon unlocked [Sun Making] in the Core Management. He also received [Normal Marsh] in planet making.

Lesson 4 was about making light. It wasn't fun to live in a dark place. Trevon's plants, including the wailing tree, could only barely survive because of the abundant of Core Energy in the atmosphere. Other than the plants, Trevon only had twenty rabbinks, Nana, and a new demon beast for the most of time. Trevon made a small sun worth fifty million Core Energy. His sun was the smallest option only at a half-meter radius.

Trevon was reminded of all his efforts in the city. He would finally say his farewell to this place. The young master boarded into the huge wagon with Jonathan, Aya, Marcus, Marcus's family, Noah, Omar, Piero, and Qadr.

Cyde and the six-men already leaving Redwood two years ago together with Alvaro. The six-men had a huge celebration when they knew they didn't need to follow Trevon anymore. Most of them almost wanted to become a Beast Bait than working under Trevon.

Alvaro intentionally left him on Redwood to become a recruiter. Alvaro and Issabella thought the city suit the pervert Trevon. Without any pleasure houses, they believed Trevon could concentrate on his career better. Well, that was a dream of course. He became a frequent arena visitor and the number one temporary boyfriend in the city. Redwood City's law didn't regulate private negotiation.

Raina also only managed to pressure Trevon to study until the time she went to the family village. She was seventeen when Trevon arrived at Redwood. In less than one year after, she completed her Academy studies and went to the Family Village as a chosen. Without her, Trevon was a freed toothless tiger in the pack of lamb.

While Raina went to the family village, Olivia was sent to the capital for her further study. The Redwood family was in dire need of Imperial Families support. They wanted the girl to get closer to her prince suitor.

Trevon's two bodyguards, Kevin and Lance didn't join the travel. They had a contract with the Redwood branch. Therefore, they could only opt to be transferred to another position. Both quickly accepted the offer.

Kevin and Lance had two years of torturous experiences. They couldn't remember the number of treasures they had to snatch for Trevon. Both warriors also couldn't count the number of fights that involved Trevon and other young masters.

However, Trevon also gave them huge monetary rewards. The rich young master gave some martial art manuals. Nevertheless, their family was in Redwood which ultimately made them choose to stay.

Jonathan and the rest couldn't get the same treatment. They had a contract as Trevon's private squad which had to follow Trevon. At least, their families still had the benefits of the McArthur family. Those warriors could send their salary from other cities to Redwood trough McArthur family.

While Aya got her salary from Trevon, she didn't have anyone else in her family. Only Marcus family couldn't get the same benefit since he didn't come from a vassal family of McArthur. He decided to take his fiancée in this journey. She was a young lady from a common background.

Trevon's journey was for the inner family tournament. The family used this chance to showcase their talents to the world. Of course, the main chosens wouldn't compete in the tournament. They would only be showcased to the world when they were prepared for a dungeon. As for their ability, the people could see from the tournament. Those main chosens would be stronger than the tournament winners.

This time the tournament was held in the Heavenly Phoenix capital. This was a strange move for Trevon. Since the family used to hold the tournament in a city where they had a major influence. The capital was under the tight grasp of the Imperial families.

The tournament was the chance for branch family members to join the main family again. This was also the chance for common young masters and young ladies to become a chosen. Simultaneously, the tournament also allowed the chance for some chosens to become a main chosen. That was as long as they performed in the tournament.

All young direct descendants had to participate in this tournament. While the branch family would send their own local tournament's winners. If any members of those branches could perform in the tournament, McArthur family would give more benefits for the branch. The family also would nurture those geniuses into high-ranked warriors. This was the chance for young carps to leap into dragons.

Out of twenty wagons, Trevon had a wagon special for him. He had a private squad that required their own cabins. Some other young masters and ladies also had their own bodyguards so each took a wagon. Only members from family branches used three wagons. Each wagon had more than enough cabins for the passenger. A Rank 3 Grand Elder led the caravan.

This journey while it was a temporary one for other young masters and ladies was a permanent one for Trevon. His journey was also a promotion transfer. Therefore, Marcus had to bring his fiancée.

Trevon would be assigned into the recruitment department in the capital. His past recruits had shown better progress in the family. The people whom he recommended had more than the average rate of becoming a cultivator.

During the past two years, Trevon had recommended over a thousand people. Twenty percent of them had managed to become a Rank 0 cultivator. This would add more power to the Redwood branch.

Of course, to the family, it was thanks to the mysterious Master Creator. The family had asked Trevon whether the master would follow him to the Capital. Trevon answered with a big YES. He had wanted to leave the city and enjoy the world again.

Other than the promotion and the tournament, Trevon had one other important objective. This was the most important reason he really wanted to move to the capital.

He came to get a marriage meeting.

Yes! He finally got his reward from Lesson 4. Master Rabbink only hoped he didn't mess with its main body's arrangement.

Trevon looked into the familiar city through the Wagon windows. The crowded building, the new huge defense tower, and the tall wall. Those would become his memory. He couldn't wait to see the capital and his future fiancée.

[Well, I can use the portals to visit those beautiful ladies in the future. Hwehwehwe.]

Finally, the disaster went to the Capital after he messed in Redwood. It was a day worth celebrating for Redwood People while it was also a day worth mourning for people in the capital. Trevon started his journey toward his destiny, toward the Capital.
