Rise of Franz Chapter 16: Lost in Illusion: The Hunter and the Prey
"Little brother, are you really not going to the Royal Academy with me? With your talent, you'll definitely be accepted," Leona said in a pitiful tone to Franz. The family's examination had ended, and she had to return to the academy to continue her studies. Leona had wanted to drag Franz along, but the boy refused to go no matter what, which made her furious."Come on, little brother, go with me. There are so many beautiful girls at the academy. Plus, I have a great reputation there and can introduce you to a few... no, maybe even a few dozen!"Leona resorted to using beautiful girls to lure him. Franz could only smile wryly. It wasn't that he didn’t want to go—who wouldn’t like beautiful girls? But at the Royal Academy, he couldn't increase his strength. He grew stronger by killing monsters and leveling up, and while the academy had plenty of beautiful girls, there weren't any magical beasts to hunt."My friend, if you're not interested in th
Rise of Franz Chapter 17: The Price of Arrogance
"Fool, how could you do such a thing?"In the Bonaparte family, the Great Elder was furious, scolding Desmond. Desmond, in turn, remained silent, his head bowed in fear. The Great Elder’s face turned purple with anger, his eyes wide and his beard bristling fiercely. He pointed a finger at Desmond and shouted."You fool! Remember, Franz is the son of the head of the Bonaparte family, not to mention that he is now the family’s genius. And you, you think you're clever, sending someone to assassinate the family's genius? Do you think Duss doesn’t know? Fool!"Desmond, used to being arrogant, couldn't bear the fact that Franz had surpassed him. He resented Franz, feeling humiliated, so in his rage, Desmond hired an assassin to kill Franz. However, once his anger subsided, he remembered Franz's status and hurried to plead with the Great Elder. Desmond knelt down, clinging to the elder's legs."Grandfather, please save me. I acted out of anger. No, it was Franz who humiliated me! I don’t wan

Chakra exploded, slicing the bandit in half, blood spraying onto Franz's deep-red chunin uniform. The bandit stared wide-eyed as his body was severed, his face expressing disbelief, regret, and a whirlwind of emotions before he took his last breath.“Ding, congratulations to the host for killing assassin number 5...”Despite the bloody scene, the remaining bandit did not panic. Two others split in different directions, daggers in hand, charging at Franz. At this point, they abandoned stealth, opting for a direct attack.Franz brought his left hand's index and middle fingers together. He shouted softly:“Lightning Shock!”Electricity surged from Franz, forming hundreds of lightning snakes that lashed out at the two approaching bandits. They couldn’t dodge in time and were instantly struck, their bodies paralyzed and unable to move.Franz gripped the hilt of Cloudfall, ready to finish them off. However, just as th
Rise of Franz Chapter 19: The Compensation and the Mystery
“Ouch, that hurts.”“Young Master is awake!”As soon as Franz regained consciousness, he was greeted by Emon’s tear-streaked face, his eyes red and snot running down his nose. Franz looked around. This was his room, not the magical beast forest. Right... Emon. He struggled to sit up and asked,“Emon, did you bring me back?”Emon shook his head and replied, “No, Young Master, it was a mercenary group that brought you back.”Franz looked at Emon skeptically. He remembered the figure that had shielded him—it seemed very familiar. Yes, it was clearly Emon. But now Emon was saying that a mercenary group had brought him back. What was going on?“Examine Technique.”Name: Emon Level: 4 Status: Healthy Skills: None Franz frowned. Why were there question marks for all the details? But when comparing the information wi

“The person has compensated you with 3 million gold coins. I’ll give you 1 million, and the rest is my fee for negotiating. Also, if you need equipment, you can go to the Weapon Shop to pick it up without needing approval from the elders.”Franz realized that this card was similar to a credit card on Earth. 1 million—wow, that’s a significant amount. He had become a millionaire in just a few months. Suppressing his excitement, Franz smirked and said,“200,000 for negotiating is quite a lot, don’t you think? And I don’t need the Weapon Shop right now.”Duss seemed to understand what Franz was thinking and gave a mysterious smile.“You’ll understand the usefulness of the Weapon Shop in the future; others would be eager to get in. If you don’t need the 1 million, that’s fine.”“Oh, no, I didn’t say I didn’t want it. I’ll take the 1 million.&rdqu
Rise of Franz Chapter 21: The Call of Duty
The golden lion crest represented the Bonaparte family, one of the four great families in the capital after the royal family. Even a common disciple from one of these four families was not someone they could touch, especially since this crest was only possessed by the direct line of the Bonaparte family.“Seize these two and take them to the dungeon.”The captain quickly changed his orders, and the soldiers surrounded and captured the two young men. But Franz raised his hand to stop them.“Wait a moment.”Saying that, he sat down and gently patted the girl's head with a kind smile.“Little sister, what’s your name?”Unexpectedly, the girl, seeing the soldiers' attitude towards Franz, immediately knelt and begged.“Sir, please save my brother. Natasha is willing to serve you as a maid for life.”Franz frowned and quickly helped Natasha up, saying,“Hold on, tell

“How is the Golden Lion Guard's strength?”Franz asked with a serious expression. Forde clasped his hands respectfully.“Sir, the Golden Lion Guard has a total of 110 members this time, including 80 swordsmen and 30 archers. Please feel free to inspect.”Franz nodded slightly. He had no doubts about the Golden Lion Guard's capabilities. Defeating a single member would be a formidable challenge. He handed Natasha, who was sleeping on his shoulder, to Forde and said,“Please carry this child for me. Be careful.”To Franz's surprise, Forde grimaced and fumbled, unsure of how to hold Natasha properly. His earlier bravery seemed to have vanished. Franz laughed softly.“Never mind, I’ll carry her myself. You go interrogate the two captives and find out where they are holding the children.”“Yes, sir.”Forde, relieved, hurried off, fearing that Franz might change his mi
Rise of Franz Chapter 23: The Escape of Natasha
At noon, the weather in Muchen’s capital wasn’t too hot, but it was still enough to make people feel a bit sluggish. On the hill, the Iron Blood Clan had no idea that the men they sent to chase Natasha had run into trouble. Their camp consisted of rows of wooden houses lined up next to each other, indicating that this place had been used by them several times before. Inside the best-preserved house, an old man wearing a purple mage robe sat with his eyes half-closed on the room’s main chair, looking like a sage who had achieved enlightenment. A moment later, a swordsman entered, crossing his arms respectfully before speaking.“Master Zeko, the people we sent out have returned.”The old man nodded and waved his hand, signaling the swordsman to leave. Zeko relished the sense of superiority. Although he was only an Advanced Mage, he still held a certain level of respect within the Iron Blood Clan. It was well-known that mages on the Lion Continent were a rare breed. Furthermore, the impe

A wave of pressure from him shot toward Darius and his brother, causing them to step back in discomfort."Everyone, let’s maintain harmony. We can always negotiate," Garen said, stepping forward. Instantly, the oppressive aura of the deputy captain dissipated. Garen smiled warmly and continued, "Everyone here is a noble descendant of the court, and you should not offend us easily. How about we all take a step back and treat this as if nothing happened?"The reason Garen didn’t want to escalate the situation was because the enemy outnumbered them. Although he could defeat the deputy captain, he feared that while he was occupied, Elissa and the others might be in danger. The deputy captain hesitated for a moment as well; offending noble descendants in the capital was no small matter. At that moment, Darius spoke up."Get out of here, or I’ll call my father to bring an army and kill you all."Garen and Franz immediately sensed the danger. Sure enough, the deputy captain showed signs of h

Chapter 65: The Law of the Jungle
After three days, Franz had gained a basic understanding of this group. Janna was a priest in the sub-chapter of the Holy Church, calm and kind-hearted. Elissa appeared to be the daughter of some noble, with a childish, mischievous, and endearing personality. Garen was not Elissa’s subordinate but another noble; his aura radiated an unmistakable air of nobility. Darius and the other knight, Garpat, were brothers and nobles as well, but they were arrogant and looked down on Franz. The cold-faced swordsman was mysterious and known only by the name Shadow.During these three days, Franz worked hard to recover his chakra. Although he had used high-grade recovery potions, he still couldn’t return to his peak state. However, this was sufficient for now. He also received troubling news: Gamabunta was severely injured and couldn’t be summoned for the next three months. Over the three days, the group managed to hunt quite a few magical beasts, primarily level 4 and level 5. Because Elissa’s te

Hearing the young girl, Elissa quickly said,"Yes, yes, Miss Janna, hurry and save him, or he’ll die!"Janna teased with a smile,"Look at you, all flustered. Are you perhaps starting to care about him?"Elissa pouted and shook her head, complaining,"You're so annoying, always teasing me. Who’s paying attention to him?"Janna chuckled and walked closer to Franz. Her brows furrowed slightly, and she recited a spell."Holy Light Restoration Spell."A beam of holy light emanated from Janna’s hands and enveloped Franz, healing his wounds. In no time, his injuries cooled down, and his meridians stabilized. Amazingly, chakra had returned to him, even if just a little. Franz was overjoyed—this small amount of chakra was enough for him to open his Shinobi pouch."Thank you,"Franz said softly, as he was not the kind of person who wouldn't appreciate help. Janna had helped him recover some chakra, and that was already very helpful."Hey, you should thank me too!"Out of nowhere, Elissa poppe

Chapter 63: Rebirth from Nothing
Franz opened his eyes to a clear sky. The air felt fresh and pleasant.“It seems to be morning. Where am I?”As his consciousness returned, Franz sat up. His body felt weak, his limbs trembling. He was shocked to find that there wasn’t a trace of chakra in his body. Reaching for his Shinobi pouch to retrieve some healing medicine, he realized he couldn’t open it. Franz let out a bitter laugh. It seemed that using the Shinobi pouch required chakra.He surveyed his surroundings. It appeared to be a mountain range, densely packed with trees. Franz let out a sigh of relief. It was fortunate that no magical beast had wandered by while he was unconscious; otherwise, he might have died without even knowing why.“Ding! Congratulations to the host for killing a Battle Emperor. Reward granted…”“Ding! Congratulations to the host for leveling up to Level 57…”Franz sighed in amazement. He hadn’t expected that killing a single Battle Emperor would yield more experience than killing ten Battle Kin

Chapter 62: Phara's Farewell
Here’s the revised version of your text with polished grammar and phrasing for clarity and flow:Franz was dumbfounded. "Change his heart?" Did that mean he had to use his charm and seduce Mazunky? Surely Mazunky wasn’t that perverted. No way. Franz would rather die than lose his dignity. If Mazunky ever heard these thoughts, would he immediately break the seal and tear Franz to shreds?“Alright. I’ve said everything that needs to be said. It’s time for me to leave,” Phara said with a trace of sorrow.Franz eyed the old man suspiciously, considering a terrifying possibility. "Leave?"“Yes,” Phara nodded. “I’ll use the last of my remaining energy to restore the spiritual essence of the continent to its peak. At the very least, I’ll be able to create a group of divine-level masters to buy you more time.”Phara’s body began to glow and gradually disintegrate, much like his master’s had. As if suddenly remembering something, he added:“When you leave here, find the Holy Church and tell th

Chapter 61: Phara's Secret
“Young man, have you understood?”Suddenly, everything vanished, leaving behind a vast expanse of white space. In front of Franz, an old man sat cross-legged. His hair was long and white as platinum, his eyebrows as lengthy as those of the mythical Tai Shang Laojun. The skin on his face was slightly wrinkled, and his thin frame was draped in a white magical robe, blending seamlessly into the surrounding void.“Understand what? Where is this place? And who are you?”Franz asked a series of questions, his confusion evident. The old man smiled faintly and replied,“This is my domain. What you just saw was the history of the Violet Blue Star. As for me…”The old man paused briefly before continuing.“I am the young Phara you just witnessed.”Franz was astonished and blurted out,“Then you’re a god?”The old man chuckled softly.“I am indeed a god. Moreover, I am the one who brought you to this world.”It was as if lightning had struck him. Franz froze, his face first showing shock, then a

"Master..."All three of them couldn't hold back their tears. Even Mazunky shouted aloud, tears streaming down his face. The elderly man smiled contentedly at the three of them before his body suddenly began to glow and disintegrate into tiny particles, floating out of the castle and falling into the ocean below. From that point, chunks of the continents began to rise, and the tiny particles continued to settle onto the ground. A few explosive sounds followed as cracks appeared in the land, and streams of water erupted from the earth, forming rivers. Across the continents, green sprouts slowly began to grow, rapidly turning into towering trees. The remaining glowing particles spread out, beginning to form all kinds of life: first humans, then beastmen, elves, magical beasts... Hundreds of races appeared quickly, all with bewildered and confused expressions.The space changed again. The continents were now teeming with life, and various races swiftly built their own cit

Chapter 59: The Rebirth Journey
“Dead again. I’ve only been alive for two years, and I just lost my virginity. Why is fate so cruel to me?”Franz was extremely distressed. As he was pulled into the space, he felt as though his body was being torn apart. After regaining consciousness, he found himself in a blank white space.“I wonder where I’ll reincarnate this time. I wonder if I’ll need to drink the Mạnh bà soup when I reach the afterlife.”Franz mumbled to himself, lost in thought. He was certain he had died and was just waiting to be reincarnated.“Is it time already?”Suddenly, the surrounding space changed. Franz found himself floating in the air like a fragment of a spirit. Below him was an endless expanse of blue ocean. He tried to move, but to his frustration, he couldn’t even budge an inch, no matter how hard he tried.“Well, of course, I’m just a fragment of a soul,” Franz mutte

Chapter 58: Franz's Sacrifice
"Are you saying, Franz… Franz is dead?"Leona grasped Prince Second's hand in a panic, speaking urgently. Beside her, Elena’s eyes were welling up with tears, barely holding back her sorrow. When the two of them woke up, they found themselves at the Royal Academy. They were reassured only when the vice dean returned after leading a rescue mission and mentioned that Franz had died. This was something Leona couldn’t accept. Pecival spoke, his voice heavy with grief.“I’m sorry, we were late. By the time we arrived, Franz had already been sucked into a spatial magic void, into a black hole.”The two women looked at the vice dean in disbelief, seeking confirmation, but he only sighed and shook his head. Elena’s tears finally flowed freely. Franz was her love; wasn’t he supposed to promise to be with her forever? Why did this have to happen? Her heart ached with each beat, and her vision blurred with pain.“Don’t cry.”A shout broke Elena out of her pain. Leona glared, with bloodshot eyes
