The Medallion

"The Purgatorial Tripod must be returned to the royal family. Odin, if you are smart enough, do not make this more complicated. If you insist on going your way, then I will also be forced to deal with this matter according to the law of the Shura Race!" the king said seriously. In the end, he could not let anyone outside the royal family possess the Purgatorial Tripod.

"I already professed the very reason why I cannot hand the Purgatorial Tripod over. If you still want to take it from me by force, then I'm afraid I will do my best to protect it with all my might," Rocky answered with a straight face. Even if he ended up deliberately disobeying the order of the king, he would never give Enoch the chance to steal the Purgatorial Tripod. After all, this would only cause a large-scale disaster that would be irreversible.

After hearing Rocky's firm words, the whole palace was taken aback. No one expected Rocky to blatantly refuse the king's order. This was indeed equivalent to disobeying the authority of the entire royal family.

"Do you see it now, Your Majesty? This guy definitely has ill intentions!" Enoch immediately uttered, adding fuel to the fire.

"Odin, does it have to reach to this extent?" Layla reminded Rocky. Of course, she did not want things to become more chaotic. So, she tried to convince him not to do it this way.

"I know what I am doing. You don't have to get involved in this matter," Rocky told Layla in a serious tone.

"I already gave you all the chances to make this easy for you. Guards, arrest Odin!" Seeing that Rocky remained stubborn, the king eventually lost his patience and ordered the warriors at the Shura Realm to seize Rocky.

"Your Majesty, please wait a moment!" Layla protested. Of course, she wouldn't just sit idly while they did injustice towards Rocky, who had been a huge help for her.

Previously, you clearly said that whoever obtains Phillip's soul power and comes back first will become your successor. But when Odin and I came back and handed it to you, you did not appoint either one of us as the next ruler. If this information spreads out to the rest of the Shura Race, I'm afraid that it will not cause anything
