Part 1: Ernest's duel
From MC's perspective:
The following day,
After completing the morning routine. I didn't want to cultivate. Rather, I decided to go to the mountain peak today.
Since I have accepted their request. Then I'll have to get ready. I think it would take a day or two to retrieve the item from Glass City.
After figuring it out, I decided to let Ernest know later.
An hour later,
After getting ready, I decided to go out. So I walked to the front door. But suddenly, I paused my footsteps.
There seems to be someone standing behind the door. A quick glint flashes in my eyes. The next second, I activated my perceptual ability.
Then I recognised the familiar figure behind the door. "Jonathan," I said in my heart.
A faint smile appeared on my face.
Creak~
Then I opened the door to greet him.
"You are alert!" Jonathan said while walking into the room.
Then I closed the door before sitting down opposite him.
