he right to pursue me now. You're getting closer to my ideal of what a man should be," Xena remarked.

At this, Felix could not help but laugh bitterly. "I really don't know what to say to your narcissism. Think what you want. It's just one month, then we go our separate ways and never cross paths again." His attitude enraged Xena.

"Did you seriously think being known as a teenage practitioner would make me chase after you? Let me tell you something. You'll never be able to catch up to me. I'm about to become Dragonia's first female Warlord and stand as equal with the Four Great Warlords. "Do you really think you have the right to act high and mighty with me?

"Think carefully. I'm willing to give you a chance because you've proven your worth. If you miss this opportunity, you won't get another!"

He answered and couldn't help but smile bitterly, for it was Gerald. "Have you been missing me, Felix?"

Felix felt helpless. "You're calling quite often lately, Mr. Hoffman."

"Do you think I want to? Someone used a Miracle Card, Would you rather I handle it myself?

A Miracle Card? Felix guessed it must be the one he had sold at the Golden Prime Auction. He had wondered why nothing had happened with it yet. Clearly, he had jinxed it.

Meanwhile, Rosalie was pouting somewhere in Dragonia. "Karina! Can't you go easy on me? I came all this way to visit you, and you're being so mean!"
