Zeke's eyes lit up. “So, if I had used refined spiritual iron, I'd have been able to make my divine weapon?”
“I guess so,” Ossa Dei replied with a sigh.
Argh, this is so frustrating. It only took Zeke nine tries before acquiring the ability to forge divine weapons.
Meanwhile, I had to train a hundred times before seeing some success and only managed to craft my first weapon
on the three-hundredth attempt. Then again, what's the use of comparing myself to him? All it does is hurt my ego
and add to my stress.
“You piece of trash!” Zeke suddenly scolded. “You've let the entire Southern Faction down!”
Those words, unfortunately, left Ossa Dei befuddled. “What do you mean? What has this got to do with the
Southern Faction?”
“If you had remembered to tell me about the refinement process, I would've succeeded in forging divine weapons.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt's because I failed that I had to take over the Southern Faction and attempt to learn from Draco. In other words,
the Southern Faction's downfall is entirely your fault!”
“What the f*ck...” Ossa Dei fumed. “You're just twisting facts and trying to shirk responsibility!”
Not wanting to waste any more time with Ossa Dei, Zeke turned his attention back to Draco. “Draco, how many
Spirit Stones does the Southern Faction have in storage?”
“About a thousand pounds in total.”
“Good. I want you to refine all of them.”
“I'm afraid that won't work, Mr. Williams,” Draco hastily replied.
“Why not?”
“We'll be gifting these Spirit Stones to the Legatuses in two days. Besides, refining them will take at least ten days to
half a month. If we delay the shipment of the stones and incur the wrath of the Legatuses, we'll be in trouble.”
To Draco's surprise, Zeke didn't seem the slightest bit worried. “That's fine. Ignore the Legatuses. I never intended
to gift these Spirit Stones to them, anyway. All you need to do is focus on refining the stones.”
Draco couldn't help but frown as his heart hammered in his chest. “Mr. Williams, w-what do you mean by that? Y-
You're not going against the Legatuses, are you?”
“The less you know, the better it is for you. Just do as I say, and you'll be fine.”
“Ah! Okay!” Draco replied.
Despite that, he still couldn't shake off the feeling of impending doom. How could he when he was sure Zeke would
throw caution to the wind and oppose the Legatuses?
There's no doubt that Zeke Williams is a powerful man, and dealing with one Legatus would be child's play for him.
However, there's a whole group of Legatuses, and they have a strong sense of unity. In other words, opposing one
of them would be equivalent to aggravating the group. If they were to join forces, not even Zeke and his team

time as a king?
“Ossa Dei, will a thousand pounds of Spirit Stones be enough to forge a divine weapon?” Zeke asked.
“It's more than enough if you're forging an ordinary divine weapon. However, if you plan on making something
more refined and powerful, you'll need at least a thousand pounds more,” Ossa Dei answered. “My advice would be
to make the best weapon you can. Using ordinary divine weapons is a burden for Celestial Class warriors, and only
the best weapons can help increase your attack power.”
Upon hearing Ossa Dei's advice and pondering for a while, Zeke finally decided to put in more Spirit Stones and
effort to forge a divine weapon of the highest quality.
That said, where would he find another thousand pounds of Spirit Stones?
“Draco, how many Spirit Stones can the Southern Faction collect in a day?”
“On a good day, we can easily find fifty pounds. Otherwise, we might not even be able to gather a pound of it.”
Needless to say, Zeke was exasperated.
Only fifty pounds of Spirit Stones a day? How long must I wait before I gather another thousand pounds, then? I
don't have the time for that!
