The Medallion

As soon as Marcia and Rocky pulled out of the Dragon Master Clan, they received some much-needed good news from Moira. The members of the Mu Clan she had sent out earlier had successfully escorted Bryant and the emperor back to the Imperial City. There were some obstacles on the way, but with the elite forces of the Ximen Clan supporting them on Bryant's orders, the group had already returned to the Imperial City safe and sound.

Rocky and Marcia rushed back and headed straight to the Palace City.

They met Bryant and the others outside the emperor's chamber. Lena was with them.

"Master! Basil!" Sabina and Lucilla exclaimed as soon as they saw the two enter. They had been waiting anxiously for a while, and it was obvious that they had been worried sick. Seeing them alive, the group breathed a sigh of relief.

"Basil, are you okay?" Lena asked with great concern, seeing the wounds on Rocky's body.

"My dear disciple, how are you even standing up straight with those injuries?" Sheridan commented, staring at the bloodstains all over him. "I would have passed out a long time ago."

"I'm fine," Rocky assured with a smile.

"Did you hand over the spiritual treasure?" Bryant inquired, looking between Rocky and Marcia.

"No." Rocky shook his head.

"Then, how did you..." Bryant asked doubtfully, and then looked at Marcia. From the look in her eyes, he understood that something must have happened after they left.
