Chapter 1024

"Stop overthinking. Are you hungry? Let me cook for you," said Ophelia.

Felix nodded. He was more than just hungry. After months of surviving on fasting pills, he hadn't had a real meal in ages. His craving for food had only intensified.

Half an hour later, Felix was devouring the meal ravenously while Ophelia watched him with a beaming smile.

"By the way, Ophelia, why are you in a place like Ghosttown?" he asked between bites.

He wasn't worried about her safety. After all, her strength was indisputable. To be honest, even though he had reached the Transcendent Realm, he still couldn't gauge the true level of his fellow apprentices' abilities. Each had mastered different skills, making it even harder to deduce.

"I like it here," Ophelia replied with a grin. "I've killed plenty of scum, and now my reputation keeps most trouble away. Life here is peaceful and free, unlike the city. It's too complicated there."

Fair enough. The city was full of tangled power struggles where "killing to stop killing" wasn't an option.

"So, why did you come to Ghosttown?" she asked.

Felix saw no need to hide the truth from her. "Because of the Dragonspine. I discovered the final piece here in Martial City. It's with someone called the Skeletal Demon, who shows up in Ghosttown every full moon."

Ophelia's smile widened. "Tomorrow's the full moon, isn't it? Don't worry. Leave it to me. I'll handle it for you."
