As Stephen finished, he looked up at the moon, shrouded by clouds up in the air.Taking a deep breath of the dank, cold winter air, he then sighed. 'I'll be honest—I'm not used to the coldness of the south, and I can't help remembering Charlie. During his first winter at the orphanage, he would be curling into himself under his blanket from the cold."The place was simply rundown and didn't have a room heater, and only a single sheet of glass insulated the windows. I really wanted to do something for him, but was worried that it would draw the wrong attention and had to allow him to suffer frostbite for the first time. I was in Eastcliff, only able to weep for him that winter…"Suzanne nodded and sighed. "The orphanage director sent photos of his limbs and ears getting bruised from the cold, and Madam Wade was often crying looking at them. But in hindsight, those hard times were essential for his life. Without it, there's no way he would have become the man he is today."Stephen no

After taking a few days' break at Aurous Hill, Charlie flew to Gaston down south.With the year-end of the Oskian calendar, the days were becoming colder, so Gaston was a good spot with its warmer climate.Tanya's last stop was in Rochester, and once the last concert was over, he would fly back to Aurous Hill immediately, and boarded a flight to the Maldives with his family.He was starting to feel spent after tagging along with Tanya's tour, and couldn't wait to get some proper rest during the Oskian New Year.It was not physical fatigue either—he just needed to set his mind at ease and unwind.But while he followed Tanya's tour to Gaston, a freighter had berthed in Gaston's East Harbor.It was an Oskian-registered freighter returning home. The crew would unload all shipments before taking a break, and then weigh anchor for another voyage to Europe.And amongst them was a geezer working as a chef, whom everyone called Mr. Marsden. In reality, he was Stephen Thompson, who serv

Both women traded glances, nodding at the same time as they put the pill in their mouths.Even before they took it, they could feel the abundant Reiki in the pills that threatened to burst out.Cultivators were always attuned to the presence of Reiki, and the mundane world lacked any they could absorb. That was why their senses were tingling as soon as they touched the pill.Fighting back their excitement, they ingested the pill.In an instant, the pill turned into a stream of warmth, as the abundant Reiki flowed straight into their stomach, and along their meridians to their Sea of Consciousness."They were mentally prepared for the Jumbo Cultivating Pill to be far stronger, but as they melted inside their bodies, they were shocked by the sheer volumes of Reiki.The Jumbo Cultivating Pill must contain a few dozen times the amount of Reiki in a single Mini Cultivating Pill!Pills were supposed to be medicine taken when you're ill. If the dosage is small, the effect would be weak

"Jumbo Cultivating Pill?!"Both women were left gaping in disbelief.Even if they had taken the Mini Cultivating Pill, Penny had never seen a normal Cultivating Pill, let alone the Jumbo Cultivating Pill.In comparison, Ruby was personally groomed by Fleur and heard her talk about the Cultivating Pill. So she knew that the normal Cultivating Pill was much better than the Mini Cultivating Pill, but also knew full well that she was not getting such a precious pill from Fleur.After all, aside from Fleur herself, only the Three Grand Elders had taken the Cultivating Pill.But now, Charlie had said he was giving them the Jumbo Cultivating Pill?!Just from the name alone, it must be even better than the normal Cultivating Pill, something which they never dare yearn for… let alone the Jumbo!And seeing their shock, Charlie chuckled, "As its name suggests, its better than the normal Cultivating Pill, and helps a lot for your present cultivation."Ruby and Penny were stunned beyond wor

However, Ruby knew that even if decapitation and taking the Regeneration Pill would clear the poison in their veins, it would not remove the self-destruct ward in their pineal gland.It was right in the middle of their brains, which was more than what they could hope to regenerate.-The next day, as Charlie visited the Champs Elys Resort again, he brought two improved versions of the Cultivating Pill he had just cooked out of a cauldron.To his surprise, neither Penny nor Ruby took a break last night, as they were both meditating in the room Charlie prepared for Penny.They were both touched to see Charlie, leaving last night and then returning first thing in the morning.Still, Ruby told him, "You don't have to worry so much, Mr. Wade. I'll take care of Ms. Singer.""I'm not worried," Charlie smiled. "Just dropping by to deliver presents."Both ladies were confused as to what present he brought them, while Charlie never said it either.Instead, he told them, "Sit down in med

After helping Penny settle in, Charlie drove home to Thompson First.In the first place, the Champs Elys Resort was on the outskirts of Aurous Hill, and between Luketown and Thompson First, so it didn't cost Charlie much time.After he left, Penny asked Ruby respectfully, "How long has it been since you came, Ms. Chain?""It hasn't been that long," Ruby replied. "I was just lurking nearby when Coldie Chardon blew himself up, and I was struck by the shockwave with fatal injuries. It was Mr. Wade who saved me.""Blew himself up?" Penny blurted, and quickly pressed, "Do you refer to Lord… I mean, Fleur Griffin's self-destruct ward she cast into our pineal gland?""That's right," Ruby nodded and sighed. "Back then, she told us it's a ward that would save our lives. If we find ourselves cornered and having no chance of winning, we just have to energize the ward, and it will preserve our essence."We had believed her and were even grateful for it, until Coldie Chardon cast it on the ve
