Chapter 132: Rythen's Potential

Azure crosses his arms, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. "Your Majesty, if you're looking for help, I've got a great subordinate right here." He gestures toward Rythen, who freezes, his eyes wide with disbelief. "Rythen here can help you fight those Kharaksa."

Rythen snaps his head toward Azure, his voice breaking with panic. "Sir, I just broke through to the elite warrior stage! I don't think I'm ready for something like that!"

King Veris observes Rythen with an appraising gaze before turning his attention back to Azure. "I don't mean to disrespect," Veris begins, his tone even yet firm, "but an elite warrior of this caliber is common in the kingdom. High-end elite warriors like you, Kallith, and myself—those who've mastered the depths of their strength—are exceedingly rare. Only five such warriors exist in the entire kingdom."
