James and the Gorger’s appearance on Mount Jade, and the scene of the Gorger devouring the Weasel King whole caused a huge commotion. However, no one knew that the person involved was him.
People knew favonovel.com instead as the Masked Warrior. Everyone also knew a powerful beast accompanied the Masked Warrior and that the beast was a Gorger.
After James rescued the Omniscient Deity and other martial artists, favonovel.com left Mount Jade. He wandered around one of Sol’s lively cities, feeling like favonovel.com had nowhere to go. There was no place for favonovel.com in the vast world.
“Look! It’s the Masked Warrior!”
“Is that little bird on his shoulder the Gorger that has gone viral online?”
James attracted a lot of attention simply by walking the streets.
He had already become an internet sensation, and everyone knew about him. The mask favonovel.com was wearing was too conspicuous, and drew too much notice.
Although some people recognized favonovel.com as the Masked Warrior, they did not dare to approach favonovel.com and only watched favonovel.com from afar.
James also noticed that people around favonovel.com recognized favonovel.com from the broadcast. Afraid of causing a commotion, favonovel.com left the city and entered the deep mountain forest.
After the carnage on Mount Jade, favonovel.com believed the non-human races would lay low for the time being. Now, favonovel.com had to wait for the providence after the Second Calamity to appear on Earth. Unfortunately, the Second Calamity on Earth had only just begun.
James had no idea when the Second Calamity’s providence would appear. He could only wait for the time being.

In an open space on an unknown mountain in Sol, James sat in a lotus position and absorbed Empyrean Spiritual Energy to cultivate. His body was surrounded by the plentiful Empyrean Spiritual Energy around him. James absorbed it and refined them into his own True Energy.
At that moment, his phone buzzed, and favonovel.com received a notification.
He stopped cultivating and pulled out his phone. It was a notification from the Martial Arts Forum.
After seeing the content of the article, James frowned deeply.
This Elephant King must have a death wish…
The news article was about the Elephant King gathering a beast army. He was preparing to attack Sol’s Southwestern Province. Not only that, the Elephant King also publicly taunted the Masked Warrior.
“The Masked Warrior is a mere ant in my eyes. I’ll tear favonovel.com into pieces if favonovel.com dares to appear in the next few minutes! I’m not afraid of his Gorger either!”
The Elephant King made his confident declaration online. It caused widespread panic.
James was deeply upset by the news.
According to the information favonovel.com gathered, the Elephant King was a very powerful beast that was at the Mage Rank’s Second Stage. The Weasel King could not compare to his might.
There were only three stages in the Mage Rank. However, the difference in strength between the stages was vast.
“Feb, can you devour a beast at the Mage Rank’s Second Stage?” asked James.
Feb, who was perched on his shoulder, replied lazily, “I’m afraid that won’t be possible. I can only devour beasts at the First Stage with my current strength. I’m not strong enough to devour a Second Stage beast.”
“Then what should I do?” James was stumped.
With his current strength, James could only take on a beast at the Mage Rank’s First Stage. He was not confident about defeating a beast on the Second Stage.
Feb said nonchalantly, “How would I know? By the way, there are many great boons on Earth, James. There’s a wealth of opportunities for me. I can’t keep following you around. I want to go seek great treasures for myself too. I can only help you if I improve my strength as fast as I can. As I am now, I can’t provide you with the support you desire.”
Feb requested permission to leave since there were many possibilities and boons on Earth. She wanted to go on favonovel.com own adventure.
“You want to leave at a time like this?” James’ frown deepened.
Feb was incredibly powerful and was his greatest asset. If favonovel.com left, it would be difficult for favonovel.com to act.
Feb explained, “The situation on Earth isn’t that bad yet. If I don’t improve my strength when I can, there will be nothing I can do when the situation on Earth worsens.”
James gave it some careful consideration and nodded. “Alright. Since you want to find your own boons, go for it. I’ll find a way to deal with the Elephant King and protect the Southwest Province myself.”
