Chapter 1768: Rest and Reward
That day, while wrapping up a body-tempering experiment in his laboratory, Sein received a report from the fox maiden.The new Ocean King, Orric, had just left the Ashen Fortress. Unsurprisingly, he had once again failed to secure an audience with Sein.
Sein knew exactly why he had come.
That was precisely why he chose not to see him.
It was not that Sein refused to lead an expedition into the Arid Expanse Worlds. Rather, his grandmaster had no such intention for the time being.
Since the subspace war ended, Sein had not seen Feylis for quite a while.
She was likely still pushing toward the peak of Rank Six.
Unlike White Stella, who had a powerful father, Feylis’ ascent was not something that could be accomplished in the blink of an eye.
It could take a decade—perhaps several.
Fortunately, the wars in subspace and the surrounding star domains had largely settled down, so the Magus Alliance’s leadership was unlikely to assign Feylis any mandatory missions in the near future.
Beyond his grandmaster’s breakthrough, the escalating conflict in the Arid Expanse Worlds was another reason Sein preferred to stay out of it.
In recent years, Sein and his team had focused solely on the Aquaria Star Domain.
