Chapter 1755

“Indeed, it wasn’t in the grandiose arena of the Airspace Group that I was bested by

Xarri,” Rhett admitted, his voice carrying a touch of nostalgia as he surveyed the room.

“No, it happened right here.”

Rhett regarded Emmanuel with a look of admiration, clearly impressed by his sharp

analytical skills. With a knowing smile, he continued, “For reasons known only to us, we

arranged a private duel here. We clashed swords until the break of dawn, and

ultimately, I emerged defeated.”

“But I see no trace of your defeat,” Emmanuel responded immediately, his gaze

unwavering.

Rhett chuckled, a sound rich with amusement and acknowledgment. Emmanuel’s

words weren’t intended to offer him an easy escape from his admission. “I was

defeated here,” Rhett confessed, pointing to his heart with his thumb.

Emmanuel’s expression shifted to one of surprise and intrigue, his curiosity piqued by

the story that lay between Rhett and Xarri.

“You bear a striking resemblance to him,” Rhett remarked, his eyes meeting Emmanuel’s

with an intensity that seemed to penetrate his soul. “In the depths of your eyes, I

glimpse a vast sea of stars, harboring limitless power.”

Emmanuel offered a bitter smile, reluctant to accept such grandiose praise. If he truly

possessed boundless power, how was he unable to save his wife and Claudette?

Rhett’s compliments felt almost too contrived, like a balm for a wound still aching.

However, Rhett didn’t think his words were too much. Instead, he turned his attention to

Emmanuel’s wounds, examining them with a discerning eye. “Did you clash with

Scarlet?” he inquired, his tone filled with both curiosity and concern.

“Yes, that’s right,” Emmanuel replied with a nod, a bitter smile tugging at his lips. “She

came close to finishing me off.”

“Surely she must have been astonished by you,” Rhett remarked, despite not having

witnessed the battle himself. His words sent a shiver down Emmanuel’s spine, as if the

older man possessed an uncanny insight into events he hadn’t seen.

Could this man be some kind of seer? Emmanuel wondered, his curiosity mingling with

a sense of awe.

Rhett’s expression grew serious as he said, “Scarlet is a once–in–a–century genius, a

force of nature with few equals. Even I cannot best her. The fact that she sought you

out means you possess extraordinary abilities. Surviving an encounter with her is proof

that she’s taken notice of your strength. She desires a worthy adversary–a fair fight to

truly test her mettle against yours.”

Emmanuel was momentarily taken aback. He knew Scarlet was indeed formidable, but

could it be true that even Rhett found himself lacking in comparison? Or was Rhett

merely being modest?

“You… you must be the destined king that Xarri foretold!” Rhett suddenly declared, his

words striking Emmanuel like a bolt of lightning.

“Why do both you and Quell speak of this prophecy?” Emmanuel asked, his curiosity

piqued and his heart racing. “I’m eager to understand how Xarri came to make such a

prediction.”

Regrettably, Rhett averted his gaze, his expression distant. “I am not Xarri. I do not

claim to understand all of his thoughts. But he once harbored the same dreams you

hold.”

“Liberate the Dark Night Islands?” Emmanuel interjected instinctively, his voice tinged

with urgency.

“Indeed,” Rhett confirmed with a nod. “He yearned to achieve this long ago, yet he

doubted his ability to succeed. When he reached the summit of the Dark Night Islands,

he found himself akin to a lone wolf, isolated and without allies.”

Emmanuel felt a pang of recognition at these words. It was a profound sorrow to walk a

path unshared by others, to bear the weight of solitude when your vision demands

camaraderie.

“But now, you have arrived,” Rhett said, turning to Emmanuel with a knowing smile. “Will

you be the Wolf Warrior who unites the scattered pack, forging them into an

unstoppable force?”

The winds of change sweeping across the Dark Night Islands had not escaped Rhett’s

notice. Xarri had possessed great strength and remarkable wisdom, yet he had lacked

the unique charisma Emmanuel wielded–the ability to inspire others to follow him

willingly.

His strength made others revere him, and the lower ranks felt he was unreachable,

having no courage to follow.

But Emmanuel was different. Now, all the night wolf members were changing because

of him. Even the Doggo Team was willing to work for the Black Wolf Team.

The strength of the Doggo Team was not to be underestimated. This was already a

great achievement on Dark Night Islands. The forces on the island either faced

extinction or were forcibly suppressed, never voluntarily working for another group.

If this change continued, the resulting power would be terrifying.

Perhaps, this ability was called leadership?

Emmanuel suddenly asked him, “Do you know where Xarri is now? Since we have a

common goal, we can become good friends.”

Upon hearing this, Rhett shivered slightly again.

This man’s thinking was indeed different from anyone else on Dark Night Islands.

On this island, others thought about how to defeat and surpass others. This man

thought about befriending someone he had never met and who might threaten his

position.

“This might be your magic, something Xarri and I don’t have.”

Rhett suddenly laughed. “Xarri and I have an agreement, but we were never friends, just

competitors who respected the agreement.”

Emmanuel smiled nonchalantly.
