Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?



What?

Are their eyes deceiving them?

There was Wei Gia, old Gia's son... And Ghu Dwo, Old Ghu's son.

Julius' eyes were burning with rapture, seeing the famous military devil of the east standing on the opposite side. 

Like Old Gia, Wei Gia was famous, exceeding his father's accomplishments. 

The 23-year-old Julius stared at the 29-year-old Wei Gia, also shocked that Wei Gia looked a year or so younger than himself. 

(-_-)

Don't tell him... It must be that these people of the east have special genes, right? 

As for Elric, he recognized Ghu Dwo, shocked that the outstanding Ghu patriarch was there.

This... This... 

Elric swallowed hard, his thoughts running chaotically. 

He didn't know the Haru, Endo, and the rest, but thought they should also be powerful. 

And if that's true and all these people were followers, imagine how powerful this Grandmaster fellow was? 

Goosebumps... Goosebumps...

Everyone, including Berry and Harry, had stern faces, their eyes still focused on the chopper door Haru was opening. 

Old wise sage man with an exquisite cane... That was the image they had. 

So who can tell them why they were met with a 17-year-old boy instead? 

(?_?)

"Grandmaster!" Haru and the others saluted as if confirming his identity for many to see. 

[Everyone]: "_"

Hold on... This was the Grandmaster? This little brat? 

Confusion, disbelief, doubt. 

Who would believe it? 

.

Wiggins shook his thoughts, calmly making his way toward the group of arrivees. 

What? Do you expect him, a powerful military field marshal, to be scared of a little beat? Impossible! 

He and everyone else felt he probably inherited his position from his father and nothing more. 

They would treat the boy with caution. 

But as they say, respect is to be earned, not forced. So don't expect them to treat this brat like these eastern people do. 

Hmph!

The initial fear and worry in everyone's eyes died down. But Haru, Old Hou, Endo, and the rest didn't care much about the changes in these people. 

As they say, real gold shines anywhere. And the Grandmaster would definitely shine brightly.

"Welcome, Grandmaster... I'm Field Marshal Wiggins; here are field marshals Harry and Berry. And for your client, Mr. Elric, this is he."

Wiggins wasted no time with a brief introduction, and Haru did the same on behalf of Dorian. 

Who made the Grandmaster hate lengthy talks?

Everyone noticed that when Haru was introducing them, he addressed Endo, himself, and Old Hou as Elders... While calling the rest disciples. 

In the end, he heard they were from the Heavenly Tian Academy? 

Where was that? Never heard of it. 

The group inwardly noted this name for later, especially secretary Kim. 

They'll have to research it later. But for now, it was time to get down to business. 

Very quickly, everyone found themselves moving alongside Dorian at his pace. 

And as they moved, so did their lips, updating these eastern foreigners with all information gathered. 

"Lasers, movement detection gadgets... You name it. We've tried our best to locate any signs of them but failed. So pardon our disbelief. But how sure are you that they're still alive and hiding on the hilltop?"

Dorian only nodded lazily, letting Haru talk. "My Grandmaster is never wrong. If he was... Wouldn't he know it?"

(-_-)

.

Everyone was speechless with how much faith these people had in the brat.

Soon, they reached the mysterious hills, and everyone from the academy suddenly turned grim, leaving Elric and the others confused. 

"What's going on?"

"Did you guys see anything?"

-Silence-

No one answered their questions, only making the scene grow tenser than it already was.

F***! 

Many had no choice but to wear their heat and night vision glasses while they walked. 

But who can tell them why nothing was still showing up when these academy people were so tense? 

Wei Gia narrowed his eyes, seeing the thick heavy purple mist swirling the air in a spiral manner. 

No. 

The mist was like a cloud circling above all 4 strange hills, with its heavy focal point stationed above the 5th hill in the middle of all 4.

It was almost as if a portal was about to open above the mysterious hills. 

The air was gloomy, and the trees dull and weak in vitality.

Appearances can be deceiving.

To the mortal eye, nothing was wrong, but for those who broke out from their mortal shells, it was a while different ball game. 

With their 3rd eye, they could see that the many veins and channels coursing through the trees were constantly robbed of their natural vitality of qi.

Everything in this world carried qi, and nature blessed heavenly aura. But they could see the most was turning this aura into a dark one, which later fed the mist. 

Wei Gia knew it was an evil formation linked with the surrounding hills. But how to destroy it?

He couldn't see where the formation started or ended.

Dammit!New n𝙤vel chapters are published on

'Is this the difference between the elders and myself?'

Wei Gia clenched his fist, knowing he still had a long way to go if he was going to be a Formation Master!

.

Like so, the group advanced through the scene, feeling the strange winds hit them now and then. 

In silence, they moved. But Elric and the non-academy crew kept staring at Dorian, trying to see through him.

'What is his plan? Could it be that there was a mysterious and hidden trapped space that can only be detected by some strange eastern technology?'

Curiouser and curiouser... 

Everyone felt Dorian and his academy group were indeed a mysterious bunch. And in no time, they reached the central hill. 

No frogs... 

This was yet another matter Elric, and everyone else noted. 

How strange. 

The group finally ascended the narrow path, and all stood on the mass gravesite, Elric could hear his pounding heart in his ears.

'Daughter... Daddy is coming for you.'

"Quickly, Grandmaster. Show us the way... Take us to them!"

Yes! Yes! It was time to take them there. 

Dorian raised his brows slightly. And for the first time since he came, many saw a different expression on his face. 

"Take you there? Sure... But first, do you believe in fairytales?"

"..."
