Henrick only asked the question out of curiosity because killing a demonic cultivator was a meritorious deed in the sect.

However, what he didn’t know was the demonic cultivator was a disciple of an elder of the outer sect.

​​

“Because he is the disciple of one of the elders and we both are the disciples with no master. So, even if we get the rewards for killing him from the sect, we will be later killed by his master for sure,”

Rall explained Henrick with a bitter look on his face. Saer also helplessly shook his head.

“What? Don’t you have a master? But both of you are high-level disciples, right?”

Henrick was shocked by Rall’s explanation and immediately asked some questions.

“Junior brother, are you really an outer sect disciple or an imposter?”

Both Saer and Rall didn’t know how an outer sect disciple doesn’t know the working of the outer sect.

“Senior brothers, I am a newly joined outer sect disciple and didn’t have much interaction with others in the sect,”

Henrick embarrassedly rubbed the back of his head as he briefly explained his situation.

“Okay”

Saer nodded his head before asking Henrick, “Do you have a master?”

“Yes,”

Henrick nodded his head but he didn’t say that the outer sect leader Gamos was his master.

“So, you are selected by one of the elders, right? It is a good thing,” Saer and Rall were not shocked at the fact that Henrick had a master because it was very common to have a master if any of the newly joined disciples showed even a tiny bit of talent, they were taken in by one of the elders as their disciples.

“Yes,”

Henrick didn’t dare to say his master’s identity and simply nodded his head to Saer’s question.

“You have much to learn about our outer sect and its working, junior brother,” Saer revealed a smile as he remembered the time he had entered the outer sect along with Rall.

“Since your master didn’t explain about the working of the outer sect means he must have a good reason for it. So, it’s better for you to ask him or wait until he says about it on his own,”

He didn’t give Henrick any chance to speak as he suggested to ask his master.

“Hm…ok,”

Henrick could only nod his head.

“Even though we have been for a while, we didn’t even introduce ourselves,” All of a sudden, Rall started speaking as he introduced himself and his senior brother’s name, “My name is Rall and my senior brother’s name is Saer.”

“Hello senior brother Rall, senior brother Saer,” Even though he was late for the greetings, Henrick still greeted them and introduced himself, “My name is Henrick.”

“Junior brother Henrick, it’s time for us to part ways now. By any chance don’t say about this incident to anyone because it will make things difficult for you,” Saer warned Henrick to be careful in the future and not to inform others about this incident.

“Huh?”

Henrick raised his brows at his words as he started thinking about what would happen if he informed others about it.

“Don’t think much, junior brother Henrick. Even though you have a master, if the master of the demonic cultivator learns about this situation, he will offer some benefits to your master and he will take care of you and us. So, until you think your master is reliable, don’t try to say anything,”

This time Saer didn’t say anything and let Rall explain about the consequences of this matter.

According to them, since Henrick was only a new outer sect disciple under one of the elders, his master would not have much attachment with Henrick. So, they asked him to wait until he completely trusts his master.

However, what they didn’t know was he completely trusts his master, the sect leader of the outer sect.

“I will keep that in my mind, senior brothers,”

Henrick finally got the revelation of how the elders of the outer sect could be and decided to be careful.

“Nevertheless, if you have any problem with an outer sect disciple except for two or three, just say my name and no one will dare to fight you,” Saer confidently said to use his name if he had any problem with other disciples before turning to Rall and said, “Let’s go.”

After saying that, Saer climbed out of the canyon.

“See you, junior brother, Henrick,” Rall waved his hand at Henrick and ran behind Saer.

‘Ding,

 The baby-fire monkey has consumed the dead body of a stage 3 body cleansing realm cultivator and broke through to mid-level rank 1 tamed beast.

Just as the two senior brothers left the small canyon, Henrick received a system notification that made him surprised and without wasting any time, he rushed towards the baby-fire monkey in the distance.

“Huh? It is asleep,”

However, his excitement increased, even more, when he saw that the baby-fire monkey still didn’t absorb the energy from the consumed dead body.

‘How did this little one eat something that is much bigger than itself without leaving behind a single bone?’

Henrick didn’t dare to disturb the baby-fire monkey because it was still absorbing the energy from the bear-type beast body it consumed earlier.

However, what made him puzzled was how could his fire monkey, which was around the size of his head, eat a beast dead body that was twice the size of his entire body.

‘Blurp’

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a blurb and looked at the baby fire monkey which opened its eyes and looked at him with excited eyes.

‘Eek eek’

It didn’t waste any time and jumped onto Henrick’s shoulder and let out some excited shouts.

“Wait wait. What happened. Why are you so excited about it?”

Henrick asked the baby fire monkey about the reason for its excitement and he was sure it was not related to its breakthrough.
