CHAPTER 500 ROCKY'S SURPRISE
"Silver Wind was injured. Even Sheridan didn't know how to heal it. Sheridan advised me to go to
Rocky," Marin explained.
"He also knows how to cure spirit-manipulated beasts?" Sabina asked in surprise.
"Yes. He is a disciple of Sheridan. When Verdanim was injured before, Sheridan told me it couldn't be
cured. But Rocky was able to treat Verdanim into complete healing." Marin shared.
"Wait, you mean Sheridan?" Sabina pointed out. She shared a knowing look with Marin. This material belongs to .
"Yes," Marin answered. Her lips formed a tight smile.
"You mean Rocky is a disciple of the most powerful beast tamer in the Holy Dragon Empire and the
Wild Spirit Land," Sabina gasped. "That is impressive!" It turned out Rocky was more than just a simple
commander. Sabina was in full shock. She had been hearing about Sheridan since her youth. Legend
had it that he shared the same master with the priest of the Holy Dragon Empire. He was extremely
powerful and he was well-known across the land. Then, for reasons unknown, Sheridan disappeared. It
would have been great to have met Sheridan during his peak, and lucky to have met him after his
seclusion. For Rocky to have him his guide, he must have felt a huge honor. Sabina felt a tinge of envy.
Even if Sheridan had been under the radar for a while now, no one had surpassed his Beast Taming
Skill and Beast Curing Skill.
"Sheridan has passed on all of the Beat Taming Skill and the Beast Curing Skill to Rocky. Rocky had
learned all of that excellently already," Marin added.
Sabina stiffened. "Marin, did Isis say anything after she woke up?"
"She admitted to knowing what happened between her and Rocky. But she held no resentment. She
talked about Rocky really calmly. It was strange." Marin was confused. Isis never liked Rocky, perhaps
much more now that he took her virginity like that. It was odd for her to spare him.
"Really? Then she also confirmed that Rocky really did that to her," Sabina said coldly.
"She claimed that Rocky only did it to save her. She would have been dead if he didn't comfort her
desire," explained Marin. Marin's heart ached for Isis. She trusted Isis' judgment and would like to think
that her cousin knew what she was doing. The important thing was that Isis was safe.
"Then what about the Commander in Chief? Does he know that he accused Rocky wrongly?" Sabina
inquired further.
"Uncle recognized his lapse in judgment. But it would be useless to entertain regrets now. He's just
worried that Rocky might refuse to try to cure Silver Wind because of this." Marin was worried.
"Let's see for ourselves. If he refuses, then we will beat him until he saves Silver Wind." Sabina
decided. For her, nothing couldn't be solved by force.
Marin was taken aback by her conviction. She forced a smile and followed Sabina to the beast farm.
Isis arrived at the beast farm and the sight of Rocky forced her to a halt. Suddenly, waves of memories
flooded her mind and body. Her skin remembered what his touch felt like. Images from that day they
spent together kept flashing in her mind. It took much effort for her to restrain her desire.
Her brain went blank. Suddenly, she couldn't remember what she went there for. Before she could say
something, Rocky already felt her presence. He looked up and saw the hesitant face of Isis. He did not
think she would still want to see him after what happened.
'Maybe she's here to seek revenge. Maybe she wants to kill me, ' Rocky thought. Something strange
rose inside Rocky as soon as he laid eyes on Isis. But he ignored it and walked towards Isis.
When Isis realized what she was seeing, she felt embarrassed. She too had the urge to run away. She
realized she wasn't ready to face Rocky but it wasn't because of fear or anger. She wasn't ready
because memories of their shared passion were too fresh in her mind.
"What brought our Deputy Commander in Chief here?" Rocky approached Isis with a smile on his face.
His tone of voice suggested nothing special.
Isis felt relieved. She allowed herself to loosen up. "Have you been avoiding me? Rocky? Do you feel
guilty?"
"Why should I feel guilty?" Rocky calmly replied.
"You know exactly why," Isis insisted. Her brows furrowed. Was he trying to pretend that nothing
happened?
"I don't get it. Do enlighten me, Deputy Commander in Chief." Rocky continued playing innocent.
"Seriously?" Out of all responses Isis prepared for, she least expected Rocky to act dumb. She gave
him a stern look and tried to find the courage to articulate things directly.
"Well, what exactly did you want from me?" Rocky was now convinced that she did not come there to
fight him.
Isis decided to let go of it and prioritize Silver Wind's condition. "Silver Wind is badly injured," she finally
said. "Even your master could not do anything about it. He said you may be able to help Silver Wind.
Rocky, I know my father hurt you, but please..." Isis was interrupted.
"Where is Silver Wind now?" Rocky asked.
"Inside my Magic Spiritual Space." Isis was surprised by his willingness.
"Open it immediately," ordered Rocky. Rocky knew what Isis was about to say. He couldn't fault Lance.
He knew that if he was in his place, he'd be more vengeful.
Isis opened her Magic Spiritual Space to let out Silver Wind, but before she could, Rocky entered it.
"Hey!" she called out. Isis was shocked. Rocky needed protective measures before he entered a Magic
Spiritual Space. A spirit manipulator in the lower level would have difficulty inside the Magic Spiritual
Space of higher spirit manipulator.
Before Isis could say anything, Rocky was already inside. She did not expect Rocky to be so reckless.
She feared that the space would weaken Rocky, so she followed him inside. Once inside, she was
baffled to find Rocky standing calmly, looking completely undisturbed.
Rocky was observing Isis' Magic Spiritual Space. He was surprised to find it to be much smaller than
his. He figured that it wouldn't be able to accommodate Silver Wind and a few people.
"This place is quite small." Rocky looked at Isis.
"Small? Are you serious? I doubt yours isn't anywhere a tenth as large as mine." Isis did not look
pleased. She thought her Magic Spiritual Space was large enough to even accommodate a huge war
dragon.
However, perhaps it was much smaller compared to Rocky's.
"Are you okay? Entering my Magic Spiritual Space with your current strength must have been difficult
for you." Isis looked genuinely concerned at Rocky.
"I'm fine," said Rocky. Indeed, he looked quite composed.
Isis stared at him from head to toe. She couldn't understand how at ease he was. Any other ordinary
spirit manipulator would have felt suppressing power as soon as they stepped inside her Magic
Spiritual Space.
But if Isis knew that Rocky had been in the Magic Spiritual Space of a spirit manipulator at the Divine
Stage, then she wouldn't be surprised this time.
