Ascent of Hero on the Dragon Throne

"Odin, your assistant is really obnoxious," Valeria muttered under her breath. The whole way to the human race's territory, Gloria had been talkative and she was always close to Rocky. But that was not at the forefront of Valeria's mind. The strangest part was that Rocky had brought an apprentice pharmacist with them, and she caught the assistant staring at her with meaningful eyes several times.

"Who is being obnoxious?" Gloria immediately snapped, spinning to face Valeria with fire blazing in her eyes.

"Hey, don't be rude to Godly Genius Valeria," Rocky said to her under his breath, narrowing his eyes in a warning.

Gloria curled her lips. If she didn't have to hide her true identity, she wouldn't have been so obedient.

"We should find a place to rest first and then we can make our plans." The others agreed silently. Then, Rocky found a restaurant in the small city and ordered everyone some food and drinks.

"Do you know who our young master is? Settle down and come with us. Don't go causing trouble," the man threatened.

"Your young master could be a cat or a dog for all I care. Get away from me, or I will hurt you!" Valeria scolded.

"Beautiful, are you serious? Our young master is the nephew of the leader of the Sovereign Pavilion. He is going to attend the Spiritual Emperor Contest. Everyone he meets respects him. You will make him angry if you don't clean up your act right now," the man threatened, pointing an accusatory finger at her.

"The Spiritual Emperor Contest?" Valeria glanced at the arrogant, young master who was sitting on one side of the table.

"That's right. Our young master is strong so he will stand out from the competition. If you choose to follow him, you will benefit in the future."

"Him? Ha! He is just a low-level Spiritual Emperor. What's the big deal?" Gloria muttered disdainfully.

"What was that? Are you courting death?" the man snapped, sizing her up.
