The Cheat Seed

Chapter 21

"I knew you could do it Marcus"

"I knew you could make it out"

The Old Man, The Flame Emperor said to Marcus zs he paced slowly balancing himself on the bamboo cane on his right hand.

"What Happened to you?"

Marcus asked the barely standing man in front of who had bulging biceps and ripped body before.

"Ah, You know Marcus, my time's up"

"Oh, I am sorry to hear that"

All of the anger he had, vanished when he looked at the feeble old man.

Marcus took a deep breath and said.

"I'll make sure, you get a proper burial"

The Old Man stared blankly at Marcus and let out a sigh.

*Pat*

The Old man patted Marcus's shoulder when he reached him and smiled.

Suddenly the old man pulled his hand and his head bobbed back. The Flame Emperor looked at Marcus with his eyes wide open.

"OH...My" He pressed his hands against his chest as he looked at Marcus in surprise.

"What happened?"

Marcus as always was puzzled.

"What the hell did you do in there?"

The Old man asked Marcus, his hands still on his weak and skinny chest.

"Where?"

"In the Dungeon, I sent you to"

"Oh there?, just some casual grinding."

The Emperor's jaw hanged in air as he heard Marcus.

"What type of a casual grinding did you do to become like this, you Monster?"

"Huh? What are you blabbering Old man?"

Marcus probably didn't know but The Flame Emperor had his own 'Cheat System' in hand.

The Appraisal skill which the Flame Emperor had could appraise anything. When he came to contact with Marcus, all the information about his progress appeared right in front of him.

Marcus had broken through his limits and it was off charts. This was not what he was expecting. Even The Flame Emperor when put through the 3 guardian trials was only able to achieve till infinity break. He was happy and was also jealous.

The Bit of jealousy which was rising in his chest vanished as soon as he remembered something.

"Ah Marcus, what you have achieved is just magnificent and amazing."

The Old Man said regaining his Old Emperor voice tone.
