He gasped out his request, “K-Kill me...”

“I'm afraid that's impossible until I get my hands on Missy's whereabouts.”

Jackson went dead silent as if he was about to change his mind and tell them the truth. Right now, the biggest temptation for him was being set free from this torture.

At that moment, a commotion came from below the mountain. Frowning, Zeke rushed outside to check on the source.

It turned out the members of Azure Dragon were in the middle of a conflict with another party.

“Stay right here until I'm back. I'm going down to figure out what's going on.” Zeke leaped off the cliff seconds after he delivered his instructions.

He surveyed the scene and took in how the other party was behaving arrogantly as they had a verbal conflict with Azure Dragon.

Curious, he asked, “Can anyone tell me what's going on?”


Alfred swiftly explained, “Great Marshall, they wish to request an audience with you. I told them we would revert to them as soon as we inform you of their presence, but they insisted on traveling to the summit and even started a fight with a few of us.”

Zeke tapped on Alfred's shoulder and assured him, “You made the right call to stop them here.”

The one leading the party broke the silence and greeted, “Hello, Great Marshal! It's been quite a long time, hasn't it?”

Zeke turned around and found the man familiar. However, he couldn't recall the identity of the man at all.

He asked, “Who are you? What brings you here today?”

“Tsk, how forgetful of you, Great Marshal. I'm Joseph Lewis, an inspector from Eurasia's Ministry of Celestial Affairs.”

Zeke finally recalled the identity of the man in front of him.

The Ministry of Celestial Affairs was the one in charge of overseeing the spiritual objects of the nation.

However, Zeke had a bad impression of those affiliated with the ministry since they failed to carry out their duties despite being paid a fortune every year.

Their negligence and laziness were the reasons those affiliated with Netherworld managed to steal so many of the nation's spiritual drugs. Eurasia was rich with resources, yet the ministry had only discovered less than one percent of them.

In fact, they probably confiscated more spiritual drugs from people that randomly stumbled upon them than they did by searching.

On top of that, Zeke had discovered the higher-ups of the ministry selling spiritual drugs to others more than once. They were the ones betraying the nation.
