The Medallion

Gilbert knew that he couldn't just bestow Rocky the power to be the deputy leader. After all, it would be like nurturing a snake in his bosom. He wouldn't know when Rocky would bite him to his death. On second thought, if he didn't grant Rocky the power to be his deputy, he might lose the young man's trust. In that case, he might refuse to fight alongside him to resist the other powerful leaders.

Whatever path he took, Gilbert knew that he would be in deep trouble. At this moment, he was completely at a loss.

"Sir, you don't have to give me an answer outright. It doesn't really matter if you think about it for a few more days. However, before you agree with my request, I won't see the Godly Genius of the Flower Fief," Rocky said with a straight face.

Hearing this, it was as if Gilbert felt that a gun was pointed at his head. If this was a chess game, he was about to lose because he didn't have anywhere to go.

"If there is nothing else, I will go back to the Ghost Palace first." After saying this, Rocky turned around and prepared to leave. However, he was quickly stopped by Gilbert. "Hold on!"

Rocky stopped on his tracks and was a bit surprised. Then, he turned around and looked at Gilbert.

"Fine. I can give you the position to be my deputy leader. With it, you will have the power that is only second to mine. However, I have one condition! You must swear to the gods at the ceremony that you will be loyal to the Ghost Fief!" After carefully weighing the pros and cons, Gilbert eventually chose to compromise.

"No problem, sir. I will do it," Rocky answered without a hint of hesitation.

"Then, let's go to the Fragrance Palace to see Godly Genius Valeria right now." With that, Gilbert immediately stood up and led Rocky to the Fragrance Palace.

Since Rocky got what he wanted, he just followed Gilbert with a faint smile on his face.

Not long after, the two of them arrived at the Fragrance Palace. There, they saw Leticia in the outer hall. As soon as she saw them, she immediately stood up to greet them. At the same time, her gaze instantly fell on Rocky.

"Greetings, Leader Gilbert! I am guessing that this gentleman is the Godly Genius. What a surprise!" Leticia sounded rather enthusiastic, but Rocky could clearly hear the dissatisfaction and sarcasm from her voice.
