"How is it, fellow Maximus? Could I have your permission to have your daughter as an apprentice?"
Seeing Goldfiend push his guts even further, Maximus frowned.
"No, the children of I, Maximus, didn't need anyone to teach them what to do."
"Besides, you are just a mere Apex Sovereign. What else can you teach my daughter?"
"This—" Hearing the words from Maximus, Goldfiend grew speechless.
What a mere Apex Sovereign?
This is already the peak power of the world.
Countless people died on the way to climb here.
Reaching tier 9 is not something one could achieve with just resources.
One needed talent, time, and resources.
Just one missing, and you are doomed to only live a few epochs.
Maximus, a tier 8 brat, dared to mock that he was only an Apex Sovereign?
How dare he?!
If not for the mysterious backer of Maximus, how dare a mere emperor talk to him like this?
