Jerry was filled with confusion.
"Forget it, wherever he went, it's none of my business. Even if he encounters danger, is there anyone in the entire universe who could possibly stand against my mentor?"
"Even just a projection of my mentor's clone would be more than enough to handle anything."
Thinking of his mentor's terrifying strength, Jerry's heart surged with confidence. Without any hesitation, he activated the spatial teleportation array and stepped into it.

"The disciple of the Blackgold Sovereign is almost here," Velen said, a flicker of anticipation flashing through his eyes. "I'll have a little spar with him first. Once I beat him so badly he doesn't even know where he is, he'll surely call for backup. Then, we'll finally get to meet the Blackgold Sovereign himself."
