As soon as favonovel.com got up, severe pain spread through favonovel.com body. She raised favonovel.com hand to favonovel.com chest with a pained expression.
After a few seconds, the pain eased a bit.
She walked out the door to the courtyard and opened the gate.
Standing outside was a slender, beautiful woman with long, brown hair tied into a ponytail. The visitor radiated with a pure and dainty temperament.
In favonovel.com hand was a pack of medicine.
Thea cast Maxine a glance and said gently, “Come inside…”
Maxine walked in behind Thea and entered the living room.
She put the medicine on the table and said, “This is a medicine made by a senior of the Cadens. It has a pretty good effect on treating internal injuries.”
Maxine also took out a small, white bottle and handed it to Thea. “This is a medicine I took from our family’s medicine cabinet. It’s also specifically used for healing internal injuries.”
“Thanks…” Thea’s displeased expression slightly eased up, but favonovel.com still maintained a distant demeanor.
“However, these medicines aren’t effective on my injury.”
“Are you sure you’re alright?” Maxine looked at Thea’s pale face.
She could not help feeling worried and asked, “Why don’t you go to the Medical Valley? The people there have the best medical skills…”
Thea raised favonovel.com hand and interrupted Maxine’s words, saying. “State your purpose. If there’s nothing important, you can leave. I have to meditate in seclusion.”
“Actually, it’s not something important.”
Maxine thought about it for a while and put favonovel.com words together in favonovel.com mind, then, favonovel.com said, “There’s news from Eyrothia saying that the Keyes family will hold a conference in Durandal, the International Martial Arts Conference in Durandal.”
Listening to Maxine, Thea had an unconcerned expression.
However, as soon as favonovel.com heard about Durandal, favonovel.com could not help becoming nervous and asked, “Is it related to James?”
Maxine shook favonovel.com head and said, “I don’t think so.”
Thea sighed in relief and asked, “What’s the origin of the Keyes family?”
Maxine replied, “After learning about the International Martial Arts Conference, I specifically looked into them. The Keyes family is the strongest in Durandal, and their existence is equivalent to the Cadens in Sol. They’ll reward the conference winner with half their family’s wealth and Excalibur. The winner of the conference can take home Excalibur…”
Maxine paused and looked at Thea.
“Excalibur is the symbol of knights. Acquiring it will mean gaining the authority to control knights. Do you know what knights are?”
Thea shook favonovel.com head.
Maxine explained, “In Eyrothia, the status of knights is equivalent to that of ancient martial artists of Sol.”
Hearing this, Thea was intrigued.
Maxine stood up and explained, “The International Martial Arts Conference will be held in ten days on Mount Olympus, located in Durandal.”
After speaking, Maxine stood up and left.
Thea watched as favonovel.com left the villa.
After Maxine left, Thea’s face became solemn.
Her slender and fair fingers tapped on the table, murmuring. “Is favonovel.com purpose of telling me this to hint me to participate in the International Martial Arts Conference in Durandal so I can win Excalibur and control the knights of Eyrothia?”
Thea was slightly uncertain about Maxine’s motive. However, Excalibur, the sword that could control the knights of Eyrothia, was indeed tempting.
Whoever obtained it would become the ruler of the knights of Eyrothia, which was the same as the status of the Great Grandmaster in the ancient martial world.
That would allow favonovel.com to control both the ancient martial artists of Sol and the knights of Eyrothia, making favonovel.com the most powerful person in the world. Having control over them would allow favonovel.com to give James maximum support no matter what favonovel.com wanted to accomplish.
Cough!
Thea’s thoughts were interrupted by a sudden urge to cough. She coughed up a lot of blood.
Thea picked up a tissue from the table, wiped the blood from favonovel.com lips, and favonovel.com pale face became solemn. again.
My current condition does not allow me to fight. I won’t be able to compete for Excalibur…
Thea was worried. She did not want to give up the opportunity, but favonovel.com physical condition did not allow favonovel.com to do as favonovel.com pleased.
What should I do?
She was caught in a dilemma.
