The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

"So, how is your Master?"

As he heard that question, a flash of coldness and killing intent appeared in the Scarlet King's eyes. It was the second time in the last few days that someone had attempted to get information about his "Master."

Regardless of the relationship forming between the young Atrox woman, as a master of Order, he would show no hesitation if he detected any form of deception.

"Why do you ask?"

The Scarlet King's voice was peaceful and revealed nothing of the ruthlessness and killing might inside his heart.

"Oh, weren't you supposed to meet him after forming a 9 Revolution Flame?"

Astrid stared at the Scarlet King with a confused expression as she remembered what this one told her when he showed the sphere with the Revolution Flame.

The Scarlet King's eyes twitched as all the killing intent in his heart was replaced by embarrassment that nearly made him burst into laughter.

"Unfortunately not. I spoke with Master through my computer ring, but he seemed to be in the middle of an important cultivation journey and could not meet me. He said I should keep working hard and wait for his call."

Astrid showed some disappointment in her eyes as she heard that.

"I see, how unfortunate. I was hoping you could get his help on some inquiries as I have hit a bottleneck in my theoretical understanding of the Revolution Flames."

"Oh, are you having trouble deciphering the chemical formulas for the 10 Revolution Flame?"

The Scarlet King was slightly disappointed that the woman was also stuck at that point, but he couldn't blame her since he found it hard to advance even with the innate talent given by the [Enhancement Module].

"Oh, no, I adjusted the process to create a 10 Revolution Flame about three weeks ago. Although I was waiting for you to prove it, I am sure it will be fine. I am stuck at the 15 Revolution Flame. No matter how many times I go through them, there are minute details that prevent me from success.."

Astrid softly shook her head as she explained her situation, and she immediately began to go through the chemical formula and mathematical equations to create a 15 Revolution Flame in her mind, which was good for the Scarlet King as it allowed him to hide the complicated smile on his face.

The Scarlet King could barely understand the process of the 10 Revolution Flame, yet it seemed that Astrid was already making headway to the 15!

Although there was a chance the woman could be lying, he knew her well enough to know she would not do something like that.

"Hm, what do you say if we test your formulas? During the creation process, we could gain new insight that could be helpful for the creation of a 15 Revolution Flame."

"Yes, you are right."

Not wasting time, the Scarlet King took a 9 Revolution Flame from his space ring and began to send new streams of Life Wave and vitality into it.

"Wait. First of all, don't send the Life Wave and vitality simultaneously. Do it in phases to maintain the flame's integral structure."

The Scarlet King had just started, and the young woman had already begun to correct his method. As expected, once he followed Astrid's advice, the flame grew more potent, and it was much easier to maintain it stable.

Keeping focused, the Scarlet King continued improving the power of the 9 Revolution Refinement flame, following Astrid's advice and ensuring he internalized the knowledge. Ultimately, the flame dissipated before becoming a 10 Revolution Flame, but neither was disappointed.

Going from theory to practice was a process, and while Astrid's advice was correct, putting them to work was hard. The Scarlet King sometimes took too long to apply the woman's advice, leaving flaws that led to failure.

Still, practice makes perfect. As the duo continued working, the Scarlet King kept improving, and in less than three hours, a shining flame with ten colors appeared in his hand.

Astrid and the Scarlet King smiled as they saw the shining flame and grew excited and full of thrill. Both looked at each other and saw the desire to push forward.

Following Astrid's advice and adjustments, the Scarlet King created an 11 Revolution Flame in a couple of hours and then carried on toward the next level.

Although they made significant improvements, they reached Astrid's home before they could complete a 12 Revolution Flame.

Usually, it was at this point they would each take their respective path, but the young woman stared at the Scarlet King for a moment before speaking.

"Will you leave Evernight again and only return for the gala?"

The Scarlet King stared at the woman for a moment. It seemed that she had been inquiring about him and knew about his patterns. After a moment, he softly shook his head.

"I have already experienced enough battles for the time being. I will remain in Evernight for the next month to consolidate my cultivation and insights."

The Scarlet King was not lying. While fighting and constantly pushing oneself forward was important, it was also essential to rest from time to time and consolidate one's cultivation base and battle insights.@@novelbin@@

"In that case, why don't you stay in my home? There is a guest room in the castle you could use. That way, we could keep improving your skills."

Astrid's eyes were calm as she uttered that invitation, but she could not hide the flash of nervousness in her eyes.

The Scarlet King stared at the woman for a moment as he heard the proposition. While he showed nothing, an internal struggle began to arise inside his mind. He had always kept his distance from the women, but if he were to accept, things would change, and she could very well make her way into his Life Matrix, something he had initially wanted to keep sealed during his time in Kronos.

Astrid could not help but grow nervous with the silence, and just as she was about to speak again, trying to calm things, the Scarlet King made a slight bow toward her.

"It will be my pleasure to accompany you."
