Based on how quickly favonovel.com got there, Geronimo had definitely run all the way here. The traffic jam in Alaska was three times worse than in California, and only a Martial Honor martial artist like himself would be able to reach this place from the Melvis residence in just ten minutes.
“Good daughter, good grandson…”
“President Melvis, I trust you’ve been well since we last met!” Martiny sat at the head of the table, looking at Geronimo with a broad smile on the place. “You’re very blessed!”
Geronimo was taken aback. His eyes widened as favonovel.com stared at the woman. “L-Lady Martiny! W-Why are you here?”
He had heard previously that people from Mayerridge had come and knew that it had been Martiny, but favonovel.com didn’t expect to find favonovel.com eating at the same table as his grandson, talking and laughing while at it.
In his mind, Martiny Mayer was not the virtuous kind.
“This is my home,” Martiny replied.
“Huh?”
“The Melvis family banquet was mined today, and I’m sure you have yet to eat. Why don’t you sit down and have a meal with us!”
Geronimo was still feeling overwhelmed by the favor a superior was showing him, and favonovel.com was a little slow to react before favonovel.com said, “Then, thank you very much, Lady Martiny! I humbly accept your invitation!”
They stuffed themselves with food.
Geronimo still wanted Alex and Brittany to live in Mevis Manor.
“Dad, we won’t go back to Melvis Manor,” Brittany said. “The others don’t like us mother and son, and we won’t be comfortable living there. I’ve promised to stay the night here at Sister Martiny’s place, and tomorrow we’ll head back to California!”
“You’re going back so soon?”
Alex smiled and said, “Grandpa, if you want to see my mother, you can come to the Rockefeller Manor. I can also refine some pills for you to take so that you can improve your cultivation level quickly and strive to break through into the realm of Martial Saint as soon as possible.”
“I can still make a breakthrough further into Martial Saint?”
“It’s not that hard, right?” Alex threw out the bait with a wide smile. “I’m confident that you will be able to become a Martial Saint within three years.”
If a Martial Saint were overseeing everything at home, favonovel.com would rest easy a lot.
Geronimo took the bait, but favonovel.com said, “It’s fine if I live in California and all, but the headquarters of the Divine Constabulary is in Alaska. I won’t agree unless you agree to take over the Divine Constabulary and become president! It just so happens that the ranking battles of the Divine Constabulary are about to begin. With your strength, it will be as easy as a walk in the park to obtain the position.”
Before Alex could say anything, Martiny suddenly interrupted, “No, Alex can’t be the president of the Divine Constabulary.”
Geronimo immediately shot back, “Why not?”
“The position of president of the Divine Constabulary is filled with various kinds of tedious tasks. Going there will only harm Alex’s development. There aren’t any benefits at all!”
“Bullsh*t!”
Geronimo’s temper burst out without warning. “Our Divine Constabulary is already the top department in the entire country, and is already at the top of the world. In terms of power and status, it’s above ordinary departments. Is this still called affecting his
development?”
After speaking, favonovel.com was surprised as though favonovel.com had just realized that the person in front of favonovel.com was Martiny. For an instant, favonovel.com had an interesting expression.
Martiny wasn’t angry when favonovel.com said, “The Divine Constabulary is not the true core of authority and power. Also, so what if Alex becomes absolute head of the country? The power of a mortal is nothing in the face of absolute strength!”
Geronimo wasn’t convinced. “Can an individual’s strength be compared to the state apparatus?”
Luna, who was next to him, said, “That’s because you’re short-sighted, and you are not aware of how far an individual’s strength can reach. You may feel that reaching the realm of Martial Saint is your lifelong pursuit, but you’re not aware that some people are born naturally as a Martial Saint and that there are realms that are even higher than that! One could destroy mountains and rivers with a single punch and use a finger to destroy a country. Have you heard of this kind of power before?”
Geronimo was thoroughly dumbfounded at what favonovel.com heard.
“That… Isn’t that just a myth?”
Martiny laughed bitterly and shook favonovel.com head. “President Melvis, there are some things that you will only believe once you see it with your own eyes! Do you remember Commander Jade Benmore, who swept through the world twenty years ago?”
Geronimo was stunned for a moment.
How could favonovel.com ever forget that? That year, favonovel.com couldn’t even endure a single blow from favonovel.com hands.
However, Jade disappeared after that.
“Isn’t favonovel.com dead?”
Martiny shook favonovel.com head. “Of course not! Commander Jade has long since surpassed the realm of Martial Saint twenty years ago and is now a more powerful existence than you can ever imagine. And now, in the peaceful and prosperous age of America, we should thank Commander Jade and many others for their dedication in doing so! Without their deathly struggle back then, the country would have been dyed red with blood a long time ago.”
Geronimo’s eyes widened. “T-This… What in the world is going on?”
