Nodding, Zeke agreed, “Okay. Deal!”
“Haha, I love dealing with decisive people! I'll get to be a Decanus when I've recruited ten people. By then, I
promise you all won't starve as long as I've got food to eat,” Hawkeye vowed.
As for the remaining time, they all spent it on the warship in boredom.
Zeke wanted to gauge their location, but he couldn't do so when they were on a vast expanse of the sea without
any marker.
In the end, he could only give up.
After sailing for two days and nights, an isolated island came into sight.
It was a solitary island, standing alone in the middle of the infinite sea.
It was gigantic, almost equivalent to a prefecture.
Casting one's eyes over, one would be greeted by the sight of the entire island blanketed by trees and weeds,
rendering it no different from a deserted island.
It boggled the mind to imagine a strong and massive sect with tens of thousands of people tucked away on that

“See? This is Theos Sect's territory. Isn't it huge?” Hawkeye crowed.
Yannick and Yoshua nodded ingratiatingly. “Yes, it's huge. Theos Sect is incredible!”
“Work hard for me. When I've become an executive in Theos Sect, this whole island will be mine. At that time, the
three of you will be my pioneers. I'll build mansions for you, bestowing you with wealth and glory. Haha!”
While Hawkeye spoke, he started daydreaming.
Zander shattered his fantasy, chiming in, “Okay, we're approaching Theos Island. You may all disembark now.”
Hawkeye hurriedly lowered a small wooden boat into the water. They would be rowing it to the island.
Zander, on the other hand, communicated with Zeke through energy. “What do you need me to do next, Great
Marshal?”
“Wait on standby and be ready to execute my orders anytime,” Zeke ordered.
“Understood!” Zander answered.
Hawkeye rowed the wooden boat. Shortly after, they reached the island.
On the periphery of the island were towering trees soaring above the clouds. It created an eerie vibe that was a
touch terrifying.
“From your first step onto Theos Island, you're a recognized member of Theos Sect. Henceforth, you can only be
loyal to Theos Sect. There will be no mercy if you dare betray us,” Hawkeye warned.
Yannick and Yoshua bobbed their heads fervently. “Don't worry, Mr. Hawk. We'll definitely remain loyal to you alone
henceforth.”
“Nonsense! You're to remain loyal to Theos!” Hawkeye corrected.
“Yes, yes!”
Once again, Yannick and Yoshua nodded earnestly.
Curious, Hawkeye threw a look at Zeke. “Aren't you going to say anything, kid?”
Zeke didn't want to pledge his loyalty to Theos, even if it was merely for show.
He represented Eurasia, and that was no joke at all.
Thus, he made up an excuse.
“Why, is loyalty to Theos mere talk? I think actions speak louder than words.”
Hawkeye burst out guffawing. “How glib, kid! Fine, I'll trust you and judge you based on your performance
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhenceforth since you're Zander's ex-classmate.”
Thereafter, the three of them went into the forest.
Yannick and Yoshua cautiously inquired, “Where are our parents housed, Mr. Hawk? Can we stay with them? They
are up in years and have trouble moving around. We can take care of them if we stay together.”
Regretfully, Hawkeye replied, “Your parents aren't on this island. I arranged for them to live someplace else, so you
might not be able to meet them for the time being. But don't worry. The living condition over there is a hundred
times better. So, you can rest easy.”
What?
At once, Yannick and Yoshua's guards shot up. “Didn't you say you sent them to the sacred land? Isn't this the
sacred land you were speaking of?”
“Who told you this is the sacred land? This is Theos Island. The sacred land is someplace else,” Hawkeye retorted.
Hearing that, Yannick hastily implored, “Can you please arrange for us to go to the sacred land as well, Mr. Hawk?
We'd like to stay with our parents. I beg you, Mr. Hawk. We'll remember your kindness for the rest of our lives.”
