Life After Prison by Silencieux

Chapter 2054

By Severin's initial estimate, he expected to encounter Celeste and Raymond at the center of the ruins. However, fate brought Raymond to him sooner than expected. With Raymond around, Severin was much more confident of securing the treasure on that mountain.

As anticipated, Raymond's arrival sparked countless discussions among the assembled practitioners.

"That's Raymond! The Grandiuno Sect's fourth true disciple!"

"Another prodigy graces us with his presence!"

"Looks like the treasures are going to slip out of our grasp!"

As Tobias witnessed Raymond's arrival, his already unpleasant expression soured even more. His guard was up as he glared at a formidable foe.

After observing Raymond's jovial exchange with Severin, Tobias cursed to himself, 'Damn it! Why is Raymond here too?'

Tobias might have been slightly confident in vying for the treasures if he only had to contend with Severin. Though he was afraid of Severin, he believed he might be able to hold his own against Severin. and secure at least one or two of the eight treasures on the mountain. He was already wary enough of

Severin and felt pressured by Severin's presence.

Having a level nine supreme saint like Raymond around was the final nail in the coffin that ended Tobias's

resolve. He was already considering retreating and abandoning the fight for the treasures. After all, Raymond's interests were the same as Severin's because they were both from the same sect. Challenging one of them was the same as challenging two at once. It was no doubt an unattractive prospect.

The memory of Severin injuring Sian haunted Tobias. He glanced fiercely at Severin and reluctantly

gathered his sect's members before leaving in search of other treasures.

'Better luck elsewhere', he thought.

Tobias's retreat piqued Raymond's/curiosity. As far as he knew, Tobias's strength rivaled his own, and they were both Southsky's celebrated prodigies. It seemed to Raymond that Tobias was afraid of Severin. He eyed Severin with a frown and asked, "Why did Tobias glare at you so ruthlessly before he left?" Even Severin was baffled by what happened. He offered a wry smile. "Haha, I suppose he's just terrified of

me."

Raymond's confusion grew. "Why would he be?"

At that point, their fellow disciples chimed in and began talking about what happened earlier.

"You might not know this yet, but Severin had never once lost the upper hand when facing Sian, Uzair, and

Tobias! He even wounded Sian..."

Disbelief appeared on Raymond's face. He was aware of the formidable strength that all three individuals shared, for their skills were not far beneath his. If he were under siege by the trio, his only option would be to retreat, rather than taking all three head-on and injuring one of them. Yet, the unwavering conviction in

their voices sowed a seed of doubt in his mind.

He turned to Severin and asked, "Is that true?"

Severin offered a helpless nod.

The confirmation that Severin had indeed injured Sian left Raymond speechless, and his eyes were wide

with astonishment.
