The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 83
The debt his parents owed? Felix took the papers from Jolene and instantly frowned. "These are the company's debts from back then. What do they have to do with my parents?" To his surprise, his words made Sabrina's body tremble with sheer rage. "Bullshit! My family had the least company shares back then, and we needed to pay off these debts before anyone acknowledged our worth. "Why else would I sell cars when I could've enjoyed my life as an heiress? Anyway, it all comes down to your parents' debt from back then. We've already paid back the debt, so it's only natural that you pay us back."Felix inhaled deeply, suppressing the blazing flames in his chest. He feared he would rip the two women to shreds if he unleashed his rage.These relatives of his had gotten a share of the company back then, yet they were now shamelessly doing this. "Mark my words. Don't blame me for taking extreme measures if you dare come to our house again."Jolene spoke up when Felix turned on his heel

"We're all involved in this industry. Plus, I'm here to join in the fun today. Please forgive me for the intrusion." Jordan kept a low profile, causing everyone to applaud him more enthusiastically. Of course, he ended up sitting at the first table in front.That said, his smile dropped once he saw Felix."Mr. Lowell, I hope you won't think I'm being immature and foolish for saying this—but shouldn't Avesburgh's Traditional Medicine Association have stricter guidelines when accepting new members in the future?"Simon, who had also sat down, furrowed his brows in confusion. "What do you mean, Dr. Hall?"Even an idiot would understand the situation after seeing Jordan viciously sneer at Felix. "To my knowledge, this Felix guy is a doctor from the countryside. His medical skills are mediocre, which we can ignore, but he sometimes scams people! "I fear Avesburgh's Traditional Medicine Association's reputation will be damaged if people discover such a person can join your associatio

Felix strolled down the street and had unknowingly arrived at a downtown area. There, he saw a woman in her 30s. Her eyes were red and swollen as she actively spoke with people who passed by. "Miss, do you have the ametrine blood type? What about you, sir? Do you have ametrine blood?"Alas, her efforts were unsuccessful. Passersby who were nice would reply, "No." As for those who had fouler tempers, they treated her like she was a lunatic. Some even shoved her away. Even so, the woman continued her task of asking around for that specific blood type. Felix could tell the woman likely hadn't slept for several days from her haggard appearance. "Sir, do you have the ametrine blood type?" She stopped Felix in his tracks to ask the same question."Is someone in your family ill and needs to have extra blood in case of transfusions?" Felix replied. It was the first time someone had asked her a question in response. Her gaze was bleak and devoid of hope. Yet, she wanted to vent her em

A smile appeared on Felix's face as he said, "There's no need for that. Knowing your good character, you'll surely raise your daughter to become someone who can contribute to her country well. That'll be the best repayment."At the same time as he left, a woman stood before a huge floor-to-ceiling window in a room elsewhere. The view of her figure from behind alone was enough to make one's imagination go wild.Someone entered the room and spoke up at once. "Miss, we've just received news that the DNA you've been searching for has been found in one of Avesburgh's hospital's databases."The woman didn't look back at the former, nor did she turn around. Only her slight chuckle filled the air. "Is that so? It seems that when there's a will, there's a way." "But, miss, even the Zeller family has given up. Why are you still putting in so much effort to search for it?"After a brief silence, the woman's voice rang out again. "He's my fiancé, after all. Wouldn't he find his life a little

"Dr. Cane," Felix greeted Wesley with a smile. Although they had never met before, the fact that Felix appeared at this specific time meant that he was undoubtedly the apprentice of the miracle doctor. "You're even younger than I imagined." Even Wesley was careful to speak in a respectful tone when he addressed Felix. The first reason was because Felix was the miracle doctor's apprentice. Secondly, Felix's medical skills were indeed superior to his own, so he had no right to be resentful. The miracle doctor had only taken on this one apprentice throughout the years. This spoke volumes about Felix's talent. Felix said, "Let's focus on saving the patient." Wesley didn't notice that his own apprentice was standing frozen on the spot. He led Felix into a bedroom, where a woman and a month-old infant were present. "Dr. Zeller, this child is my great-grandson. He was born without innate energy, and I truly have no way to help him." It turned out that the child was lacking in in

"Dr. Zeller, you can decide on how to deal with him. He brought this upon himself!" Wesley didn't even want to know the details of what happened. If he didn't make his stance clear right now, he himself would get in trouble once Gerald turned up. "Confine him for five years and ban him from stepping out into the world!" Felix left after saying that, leaving Jordan with a bitter smile on his face. The same words Felix had spoken earlier in the morning at the Traditional Medicine Association echoed in Jordan's mind. He hadn't expected Felix's words to come true so quickly, nor did he have a chance to resist. "Mr. Cane, I'm sorry," Jordan said. Wesley patiently listened to Jordan's explanation. Then, he sighed and shook his head. "In the end, it's all because of a woman's charms! Luckily, Felix isn't a ruthless man. If he really wanted to kill you, I wouldn't have been able to protect you, either."What else could Jordan do? He felt nothing but a sense of relief. "Mr. Cane, s

The goddess of war, Xena Summers? Kane was even more confused. What did Xena have to do with this? "My nephew will be coming to Avesburgh in a few days. His goal is to marry Xena," Daniel explained. Kane furrowed his brows. This seemed like a personal matter. How did it involve Dragon Alliance?"Mr. Rush, forgive me for speaking frankly, but I still don't understand." Daniel stood up, as if he already expected Kane's reaction. "I came here just to notify you, as you have the most widespread influence in Avesburgh! My nephew also wants to join Dragon Alliance, but he lacks the necessary qualifications. "However, everything will fall into place once he marries Xena. At that point, Dragon Alliance will rise to a new level with the goddess of war on our side. I'm sure you understand the implications."Daniel turned to Kane. "If my nephew needs help, you wouldn't refuse to lend a hand, would you?" Kane smiled and said, "Of course not. This is a small matter." However, he kep

So many benefits? Sasha hesitated for a moment as she thought of Felix's indifference toward her. Ted continued, "Heh! I know you're worried about Lord Kane. I knew about Felix's connection to Lord Kane a long time ago, but so what? I'm still going to teach him a lesson! Why? Because the backing of the Glover family is something even Lord Kane can't compare to." Sasha's doubts dissipated with his assuring words. The frustration of unrequited love would turn into hatred easily. Moreover, she never had much affection for Felix to begin with. Her recent change of heart was purely due to Kane's influence. Now, even that concern was taken care of. Why wouldn't she take advantage of another prospect with a better opportunity? "Mr. Glover, I'll do whatever you say, but I have one condition. You can't let anything like that night happen again. I'm not a promiscuous woman with loose morals," Sasha said. Ted sneered inwardly. The people he hired this time wouldn't spare a glance at a

At this time, Felix finally went to Quinley's house. The funeral hall had been set up, and the villagers were watching. With his arrival, everyone quickly made way for him.Perhaps it had already been explained, but no one showed hatred to Felix for what he did, nor did they worry Wagner and his companions might come back for revenge."Dr. Zeller! Thank you… Thank you for getting justice for my Quinley!" Her parents rushed to greet him, falling to their knees and thanking Felix. Their only remaining son followed behind.However, only Lincoln was left beside the corpse, mourning like he had lost his soul. "Please, get up. My deepest condolences," Felix replied gently.After lighting up a few candles for Quinley, Felix, who was about to leave, told Lincoln softly, "Come to me when you feel better."When he arrived at Leandre's house, there was a bottle of wine on the table along with two side dishes. "Quinley's family is going to move to town. With the hundred silver coins, they

A secret? Felix watched Leandre leave after speaking. That meant that it wasn't the time yet. Of course, Felix didn't expect anything much. Although he could see that Leandre wasn't as simple as he seemed, Leandre had been in Innswood Village for so many years.How powerful could he be?…As the sun rose, so did Kathlynn. Wagner was extremely happy. "Kathlynn! You're finally awake!"After Kathlynn shook herself awake, she looked down at her body, confused. She felt around and muttered, "I'm… I'm completely healed? I can only feel a slight ache now… What happened?"The last thing she remembered was the moment she was attacked. The injury was so horrible that she couldn't forget the feeling. She thought she was a goner for sure."We got lucky. We found a doctor in Innswood Village, and he saved you."A doctor? She followed Wagner's finger and was surprised. A doctor from a village could actually help her?As she thought of this, she stood up and said, "Thank you for saving me

Wagner glared at Felix, gritting his teeth. "You'd better help her! Otherwise, you know what will happen!"Felix showed no expression as he said, "I'm a doctor. If I say I can do it, I definitely can help her."Wagner took a deep breath, and he felt something he had never felt before—humiliation. "What must he do?""Tell him to follow Mr. Campbell. He shall kneel and pray before Quinley's body before compensating her family with 100 silver coins!"The rough man almost fainted when he heard the request. "Kneel and pray? How dare you ask me to do that?"Him, a fighter, kneeling to a mere villager? How could he withstand such humiliation? Even Wagner was furious by this request. He looked at Kathlynn lying on the bed and held back."Follow the chief and do as you're told!" Wagner barked.The rough man wanted to argue, but Wagner clenched his fists and said angrily, "Was I not clear, or are you deaf?"Hearing this, the man could only glare at Felix angrily before following the he

There was a clang as the tool in Lincoln's hand fell to the ground. He rushed outside, grabbing the woman who sent them the news."What? Quinley is dead?"The woman could no longer hold back her cries. She pointed at the group of fighters angrily. "One of their people is a monster! He raped her and killed her!" She screamed, "I don't want to live anymore. I want to die!" Just then, a man's voice came from behind her, "Why are you crying? Your daughter is lucky that I took a liking to her! Yet, she slapped me and forced my hand to kill her. She got off easy!"He was a rough-looking man, and he glared at the woman in contempt. The woman, Quinley's mother, Susan McLoughlin, wanted to rush forward in anger, but Leandre quickly stopped her. Even with everyone in the village, they couldn't fight against these brutes. Susan would die if she rushed up to fight the man now."I'm going to kill you!" she screamed again. Leandre held her back, but he couldn't stop Lincoln, whose face w

"Dr. Zeller, my father picked some mushrooms and cooked them for you!" a pretty girl announced as she walked into the clinic. Felix instantly smiled and thanked her, "Thank you, Quinley!"On the other hand, Lincoln blushed as soon as Quinley Salvatore walked in. Their feelings for one another weren't a secret at all. However, Quinley's family disapproved of him, as he had been incompetent with a disabled father before.But now, with Lincoln learning medical skills from Felix, of course, her family had a different opinion now."Lincoln, help me send Quinley off."While eating, Felix wondered whether he should leave or not. He hadn't seen anyone else outside of the village for a whole month now. Leandre seemed quite knowledgeable, but he was also wary of Felix. So, it was almost impossible to get information from him.When the sun was about to set, Lincoln suddenly ran in. "Mr. Zeller! Six fighters came into the village, and one of them was seriously injured!" he exclaimed anxio

"Do you remember anything at all?" Leandre asked as he walked over. Behind the Waverlys' house, Felix sensed Leandre's approach, but he didn't show it. He quickly pretended to be startled. "Oh! It's you, Mr. Campbell."Leandre smiled and took out a smoking pipe. "I used to look out in the village like this every night when I was young."Felix turned back and sighed. "Although I haven't exactly experienced it, I keep feeling that there's something terrifying in the darkness…"Leandre nodded. "That's for sure. Otherwise, how could so many people have died? Even the powerful fighters never return once they leave for Desolated Lands at night."Felix had a feeling that Leandre might be hinting at something else, but he pretended not to notice and turned to look at the fire in the east. "Thank goodness, the flame is there to protect us! Otherwise, I'm afraid there'll be no one left alive here."Turning to the flames, mixed emotions reflected in Leandre's eyes. "Yeah, Nine Flames are t

With a thump, Lincoln dropped to his knees and began thanking Felix, tears in his eyes. Every motion came from the heart."Get up, come on," Felix said, helping him back to his feet. "We met because of fate. Besides, if you hadn't led me out of that forest, I'd probably be dead by now."As Lincoln was lifted up, Mateo was already getting excited. "Hurry! Help me outside. I want to see what it looks like out there!"Out on the village path, two older women were walking side by side, gossiping and chuckling softly."Right? That guy got chewed out by Kimberly so badly that he couldn't get out of bed for three days. Serves him right!"Just as they were laughing, they caught sight of Mateo standing at the gate. They greeted him cheerfully, "Mateo!"He smiled back warmly. "Not asleep yet?"But before they could respond, both women froze mid-step. Their eyes widened as they stared in disbelief. Mateo was standing upright on his own. Lincoln stood a full yard away, not even close enough

Lincoln's jaw practically hit the floor as he stared at Felix in disbelief. "Felix, are you really a doctor?"Felix gave a sheepish smile, his expression just as confused."Yeah… I just remembered it a moment ago. No wonder I had flashes of those silver needles. Maybe it's because you talked about all this. It helped jog my memory. Thank you, Lincoln."Lincoln grew excited. "Then, Felix, can you heal my father's legs? He's been dreaming of walking again…"People from small villages had no idea what it took to treat legs that hadn't moved for a whole year. However, it actually worked out perfectly for Felix.What he needed right now was a safe place, away from danger, where he could think through the whole situation with Nine Flames. Everything else was secondary.Putting on a hesitant expression, Felix sighed. "I can try, but I don't have any silver needles with me."When the Starmark transported him, everything that wasn't part of his body or soul had been left behind on Earth.

Leandre just took a few puffs of his pipe. "He can stay the night at your house. That's final."With that, he walked away.His tone was firm and unquestionable. With Leandre—the chief—showing his authority, Lincoln didn't dare protest any further. He could only give Felix an apologetic look."Sorry, Felix. I didn't know Leandre was so wary of outsiders."Felix chuckled. "It's fine. I'm just grateful he let me stay the night."Innswood Village was visibly poor. There was not a single brick house in sight. Everything was made of straw and wood, barely holding together.The village was small. According to Lincoln, only about 300 people lived there.On the way in, Felix had also learned that Lincoln's father was still alive, but he'd broken both his legs a year ago while out foraging. Since then, he'd been bedridden, and all the responsibility of supporting the family had fallen on Lincoln's shoulders. Honestly, Lincoln was as filial as they came."You must be Felix. Thank you for
