Just moments ago, Charles had slain a Level Forty Serpent without showing any reaction, his face devoid of any expression, as if he had merely squashed an ant.

And now he was asking if Blackrock had eaten?

"No, not at all." Blackrock replied. For some reason, as he looked into Charles\'s calm eyes.

He felt a surge of fear in his heart. No, it should be described as a fear of the strong!

This feeling only arose when he faced Lord Joshua.

Even now, with only three mystical beasts, Charles emanated an aura that belonged to the strong!

"Perfect, I haven\'t eaten either. Why don\'t we go inside and grab a bite? I have quite a few questions I\'d like to ask you." Charles said.

Blackrock nodded stiffly. He was now certain that Charles was not an enemy, but rather an ally.

In his heart, he felt not only curiosity about Charles\'s identity but also confusion about the questions Charles wanted to ask.

Standing at the entrance of the tavern, Lance gradually collected his surprise and stepped forward, saying, "The Robinson family has booked the third floor, and the payment has been made. Why don\'t we go upstairs for lunch?"

Charles pointed to Blackrock beside him and replied, "I have some things I want to ask him. It\'s not really appropriate with too many people around."

Lance responded, "It\'s just the two of you. I need to head back to the Robinson family to prepare for our collaboration, so I can\'t stay here."

Charles nodded and took Blackrock to the third floor of the tavern, where they found the largest private room and sat down.

Once all the dishes were served, Charles looked at the table piled high with delicious food.

He immediately summoned Mia, Mousie, and Max.

One person, three mystical beasts, and a Serpent indulged in a hearty meal.

After a hearty meal, Charles looked at Blackrock and asked, "How is Aria doing lately?"

Blackrock suddenly looked up at Charles. The name of the Serpent Queen was not something ordinary people could know.

"Mr. Charles, could you tell me about your relationship with Her Majesty the Queen?" Blackrock did not answer, he needed to understand the relationship between the two.

Charles scratched his head and pondered for a moment before replying, "Friends, I suppose you could say we\'re fairly close friends. Joshua is also aware of my relationship with Aria."

Friends, close friends?

Upon hearing Charles\'s response, Blackrock recalled his encounters with Her Majesty the Queen.

Each time, she was alone—strong yet exuding a sense of loneliness.

After a moment, Blackrock sighed and replied, "Her Majesty is very tired. There\'s a lot to deal with regarding the New Kingdom, and she\'s handling it all by herself. Lord Joshua is skilled in battle, but he can\'t help the Queen much."

"I see. I didn\'t realize she truly began gathering people from the Atacama Desert, hoping to restore peace and reclaim its former glory." Charles remarked.

He remembered the time spent with Aria, during which he felt she was just an ordinary girl.

The notions of a fallen nation and the bloodline of the Serpent Queen didn\'t seem to fit her at all.

Looking back now, perhaps during those days, she could be carefree, not having to think too much or bear too much responsibility.

"How is the situation in Atacama?" Charles asked his second question.

Blackrock sighed again and replied slowly, "The situation is very complex. Atacama is no longer the Atacama it used to be. There are many different factions, some are simply Serpent People, while others have backing from foreign powers."

"And there\'s the ever-watchful Stellar Empire. If it weren\'t for the fact that the Stellar Empire is currently embroiled in a struggle among the princes for the throne, the situation would likely be even more chaotic."

Listening to Blackrock\'s explanation, Charles could roughly imagine how difficult it must be for Aria to establish a new kingdom in such a complicated scenario.

Unfortunately, he was only a Level 4 Beast Master now and couldn\'t be of much help.

"Is there anything I can do to help?" Charles asked.

Blackrock voiced his curiosity, "Mr. Charles, can you tell me about your background? As far as I know, there isn\'t a Bryant family in Genosha."

"I\'m just an ordinary citizen." Charles replied.

Blackrock\'s eyes widened in disbelief. He couldn\'t fathom how an ordinary person could earn the respect of the head of the Robinson family and effortlessly kill Uda.

"Really, it\'s just that I\'ve been lucky. I have a Level 8 Beast Master as my mentor and a master-level alchemy teacher." Charles continued.

"E-eight Level Beast Master? A master-level alchemist?" Blackrock stammered, struggling to find his words.

"Yes, I\'m also a senior blacksmith, a senior alchemist, and a Level 4 Beast Master. I just became a Level 4 Beast Master a couple of days ago." Charles tried to explain in detail.

He genuinely wanted to help Aria and Joshua.

"..." Blackrock fell silent. He didn\'t know what to say to express his astonishment.

Could an ordinary person really train in blacksmithing, alchemy, and be a Beast Master all at once?

"For now, there\'s nothing you can help with. The fact that we were able to reach an agreement with the Robinson family has exceeded my expectations. The new kingdom can take a bit of a breather now." Blackrock\'s attitude became more respectful.

Charles nodded, and the two chatted for a while longer until it was almost time for afternoon classes, and then Charles left.

Inside Cyber Academy.

In Class A\'s classroom.

Zachary was still sitting behind Charles, with Camilla beside him.

They had both watched the video from noon, and Zachary had studied it carefully.

He placed himself in the perspective of the Serpent and realized that no matter how he struggled, he would end up just like that Serpent, being killed by Charles!

The discussions online about Charles were extremely heated, with countless people labeling him a monster of Cyber Academy!

Being a step ahead of ordinary people made him a genius.

Being two steps ahead of ordinary people makes one a genius among geniuses.

Charles, however, was far ahead of others and had undoubtedly become a monster!

This was still without him contracting a fourth diamond-quality mystical beast, if he did, his strength would surely increase.

Within the entire Class A, only Zachary and Camilla could get somewhat close to Charles.

The others were too afraid to approach Charles, let alone anything else.

"By the way, we\'re facing Class B\'s challenge in the next couple of days. I heard only the top five from Class B qualify to challenge Class A students. I wonder if anyone will challenge me." Zachary said quietly.

He was genuinely looking forward to someone challenging him, as it would give him a chance to vent his frustrations.

"Can you challenge anyone? I\'ve been a bit busy lately and don\'t want to face any challenges." Charles asked softly.

Zachary\'s mouth twitched slightly. He paused before replying, "Don\'t worry, no one would be foolish enough to challenge an unbeatable opponent."

"That\'s good, I don\'t want to waste my time." Charles replied.

Meanwhile, in a mountain range somewhere in Genosha, Grace watched the video on her phone as it slowly loaded to completion, her face filled with shock.

"How about it? Do you have confidence in defeating Charles?" her teacher asked.

Grace took a deep breath, exhaling slowly. She put her phone back in her pocket and looked at the dense forest before her, speaking with determination:

"In two years, I will definitely defeat Charles!"

Her teacher nodded and said, "That\'s the mindset of a strong person. Keep up the special training, and if you can persevere, becoming a Level 5 Beast Master will be within your reach!"

"With your talent, there\'s also a great chance you could become a Level 8 Beast Master!"

As if recalling something, Grace gritted her teeth and asked, "Teacher, do you think it\'s likely for Charles to become a Level 8 Beast Master in the future?"

The forest was silent,

With only the sounds of nearby insects and the rustling of leaves stirred by the wind.

After a long while, Grace\'s teacher finally replied, "He should be able to become a Level 9 Beast Master."

Grace\'s body froze in an instant. She stopped speaking and just walked deeper into the forest.

She wasn\'t the only one rapidly improving her strength.

In an unknown small town, inside a tavern,

Lily looked at the information on her phone. Her face first showed a happy expression, then shifted to disappointment.

After a period of training, she had progressed from a Level 1 Beast Master to a Level 2 Beast Master.

However, Charles had gone from a Level 3 Beast Master to a Level 4 Beast Master.

The gap between them seemed not to have narrowed, but rather widened.

This was because the higher the level of a Beast Master, the greater the disparity between them.

"Come on, Lily, do you remember your goal?" Lily quietly asked herself.

Everything she did was to get closer to Charles. She knew that Charles\'s future was bound to be very bright and that he could become an incredibly powerful Beast Master.

Chasing after Charles was destined to be a difficult task,

But so what? She just wanted to get as close to Charles as possible and be able to watch him!

...

"Good kid, I knew I didn\'t misjudge you. From this video, it seems you haven\'t even used your full strength yet." Ezra said after watching Charles\'s video.

He was very pleased with Charles\'s speed.

After all, it hadn\'t been long since he met Charles for the first time.

Moreover, Charles\'s fourth mystical beast was a diamond-quality mystical beast, which was already quite impressive.

In a good mood, Ezra intended to rest a bit longer, but unexpectedly, strange sounds came from the cave behind him.

The sound resembled a baby crying, yet also echoed the wailing of an old man nearing death, filled with sadness, despair, and various negative emotions.

A long tentacle covered in eyes slithered through the cave filled with broken flesh and blood, waving in the air, looking extremely eerie.

Ezra sighed, these creatures were becoming increasingly active. It seemed that the chaos in the world was not far off.
