The Medallion

"Leader, are you really sure that you will allow the Godly Genius to be under Esteban's care? Even you know that he is famous for his unsociable character. I'm afraid that if Odin had somehow offended him, something bad might happen to the Godly Genius!" an elder said, expressing his worries.

"No need to worry. Esteban should know what he is doing. He has been in the Ghost Capital for a long time, and he had never accepted a disciple even once. It just means that there is indeed something special with the Godly Genius." From Gilbert's words, one could see that he had the utmost confidence towards Esteban.

On their way back to the Ghost Palace, Rocky had been constantly nagged by Esteban. He deeply regretted letting Rocky go with him. As a result, they were in big trouble.

It was not actually a bad thing that Rocky was chosen to be the Godly Genius. However, his real identity would cause a lot of trouble once it was leaked out.

"Is it possible the deity did not find out your real identity? Well, it would be strange that she gave her divine power to you if she knew who you are." Esteban was extremely baffled. Logically speaking, with the deity's power, it should be easy for her to find out Rocky's identity. Moreover, according to the tradition, all of the Godly Geniuses should have come from the Shura Race. There had been no precedent that a human or a member of the spiritual race had been chosen as the Godly Genius.

"That's impossible." Rocky shrugged with a smile on his face.

"Well, then, you mean she didn't punish you even she knew who you are!" Esteban added.

"Yes. She even tried her best to persuade me into accepting her divine power. Actually, I was not willing to do it at first. However, she laid some tempting conditions, so I eventually agreed," Rocky answered bluntly.

"What? Are you kidding me?" Esteban could not believe what Rocky said. He could not help but question what was going on in the deity's mind.

"I am telling the truth. There is no merit for me to lie about this," Rocky said with a straight face.

"So, did you see what the deity looked like?" Esteban asked out of curiosity.

"Nope. I just heard her voice," Rocky replied as he shook his head.

"I see. Then—" Esteban still wanted to ask him about a few more things, but Rocky immediately interrupted him. "Hey, old man. When did you become so talkative? It's not like you."
