Chapter 321 Same Position

Now that the contest was finished, Rocky thought he could finally relax. Sadly, he was wrong. Despite the conclusion of the contest, he still had a lot of loose ends to tie up. The two beauties stood before him were an excellent example. At any other time, he would've been accosted by two gorgeous women like Isis and Marin. But at that moment, he was a little scared by the strange glint in their look as they stared at him with narrowed eyes.

"What are you two planning?" Rocky stepped back with a shudder when they only leaned towards him and looked at each other instead of answering him. He felt like he was a student once again, waiting for a punishment after he had done something wrong. Which was just wrong because he was an adult who could control powerful beasts. He even crossed his arms defensively and puffed up his chest to cover up the discomfort he felt.

Isis and Marin rolled their eyes at Rocky's reaction.

However, Rocky's obvious discomfort made Isis realize as well the strange vibe that surrounded them. Maybe she had stared too much. Isis coughed slightly to conceal her embarrassment. She straightened her posture as if nothing had happened, and made it seem like she was only there for important business. She took out a little bottle from her sleeve and handed it over to Rocky.

"What's this?" Rocky asked as he took the bottle from her and looked at it with doubt.

"That's a healing elixir, very effective for body injuries including traumatic and internal injury." Isis answered in a casual way, acting as if she didn't care about it at all.

"That's the top elixir Isis treasures for herself." Marin whispered to Rocky when her cousin was distracted. Rocky couldn't help but be amused at the duo's antics.

"You didn't have to, thank you!" Rocky didn't actually need any elixir no matter how powerful the effects were because he possessed the magical saliva. Still, the bottle of elixir came from Isis so he accepted it gratefully. He didn't want to offend her in any way.

"Rocky, do you have any idea what you did? Why did you continue fighting after getting badly injured? You don't have to risk your life. It's only a contest. What if you were disabled or even killed just then? Did you even think about that?" It seemed that Marin merely gave Isis her time to speak, and now she deemed it her turn to scold Rocky. She really had been worried for Rocky during the match, especially when she saw that Rocky was truly in danger. She could still remember how blood rushed to her head and how her heart thundered in her chest.

"It's not a big deal!" Rocky answered nonchalantly, flapping his hand dismissively at them. At the critical moment o

but he appreciated their kindness.

"I've heard what happened to you from Miss Isis. I've been wanting to see you since last night but Miss Isis told me that you needed to rest. I didn't want to disturb you so I came for a visit today instead," Sue said, and her face scrunched up in worry.

"Never mind. I'm sorry I worried you." Rocky smiled at Sue kindly. He was about to say something else when the door suddenly burst open.

Marin entered the room authoritatively. She looked ready for battle except she carried a set of clothes in her hands.

"Commander Marin!" Sue bowed to her immediately.

Marin nodded at Sue and then addressed Rocky, "How do you feel now? Do you still feel sore?"

"Yes, of course! I'm aching all over. Commander Marin, could you do me a small favor? I want a massage so badly!" Rocky said as a devious smile crept at the corner of his lips. He exaggeratedly winced and whimpered suddenly, to gain her pity.

"Well, I don't mind. I could do you a favor... and send you to heaven now! Go change! And then come with me." Marin shouted at him and threw the clothes she was carrying to his face.

"To where?" Rocky asked, raising his eyebrow.

"Both you and Dunn were seriously injured yesterday, so the result hasn't been announced. They will announce who can be promoted to the Frontline Commander today. Everyone has already gathered up in the training field, waiting for you," Marin explained and then she left the room with Sue so Rocky could change.

Once Rocky finished changing his clothes, he walked out to join Marin.

"Do you know what it means that you have won the contest yesterday?"

"Of course I know! Now I'm a Frontline Commander, the same position as you are," Rocky said proudly, puffing his chest out and smirking at Marin.
