The Medallion

"Valeria, it's too dangerous. Just stay here." Since Rocky knew that this task would be far too dangerous than the previous ones, he didn't want Valeria to take the risk.

"Ha! You're trying to get rid of me again? No way! I will go with you this time, and that's final!" When Rocky went to the territory of the human race alone, Valeria felt a deep sense of emptiness in her heart. She clearly knew that it was because she didn't want to be apart from her husband. Hence, even though Rocky wanted her to stay behind again, she would definitely not agree this time.

Hearing her firm response, Rocky could just shake his head and smile bitterly. It was not his intention, but it seemed that he accidentally made Valeria really fall in love with him.

"All right. If you really insist on coming, then go with us," Rocky finally agreed, which actually surprised Valeria.

"Really? You're serious?" Valeria thought that it would take more than that to convince Rocky, so she did not expect that he would agree to let her come that easily.

"Yes, of course. After all, you are the Godly Genius of the Flower Fief. It means that you are also qualified to compete to become the successor of the king. I think that it will be unfair of me to remove that opportunity for you. So, yes, come with me and give it a try." The main reason why Rocky suddenly changed his mind was that he had once promised Valeria to make the Flower Fief benefit a lot in exchange for her agreeing to his plans. So, now that a rare opportunity presented itself, he thought that it might be a way to fulfill his promise to her.

"What? Me, a successor? Don't joke around. I have no intention of taking that role..." Valeria immediately dismissed the idea, a bit frightened of even thinking about it. After all, being a leader of a fief was nothing compared to being a leader of the entire Shura Race. She thought that she would never be capable of taking on such a huge responsibility.

"Ha-ha! Why are you being too serious and gloomy? I was just kidding. Even though we may not become the successor, it will still be very advantageous for us to pass the challenges in the Ghostly Demon Land. There is a huge chance that we are going to be promoted to become royal members. If that happens, it will be beneficial for the Flower Fief. Don't you think?" Rocky elaborated what he was really thinking.

"We can become royal members?" Valeria was a bit stunned as she repeated what Rocky said.

"Yes, Odin is right. Once you pass the training inside the Ghostly Demon Land and help Princess Layla become the successor, then you are definitely going to be promoted and become royal members. It also means that the Ghost Fief and Flower Fief will receive generous benefits!" Gilbert affirmed.

"I see. But I am not really after those things right now. I just want to—" "That's it, sir. Both I and Valeria will go."
