Rocky slowly woke up about half a day later, and he found that he was lying on a board in a temporary tent, with Marcia beside him, looking worried.
She had stayed beside Rocky the whole time he was out cold. At that moment, her mind was starting to drift, but Rocky's movement pulled her out of her thoughts. Marcia immediately moved closer to him, breathing a sigh of relief when she saw that he had finally woken up. "Basil, how do you feel?" she asked in a breathy whisper.
"I'm fine," answered Rocky with a dismissive wave of his hand. He moved to stand up, Marcia rushing forward to help him despite his words. Although he tried to make light of his situation, Rocky felt like his body got farther and farther away from him when he was about to pass out earlier. It was like he was about to disappear.
"It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have..." Marcia's eyes were puffy and red, and her voice was hoarse with guilt. She knew that Rocky risked his life because of her. If something bad happened to him, she would not forgive herself.
Marcia was right. She was, indeed, the reason why Rocky went all out to help the Mu Clan get rid of Rex. Rocky knew that her biggest wish was to help her sister Moira lead the Mu Clan against the Dragon Master Clan and wrest control from them to fulfill her father's last request. Therefore, for Marcia's sake, he had done his best to help her.
But he also knew that the last battle had gravely damaged his soul. Perhaps, if this happened again next time, he might never wake up again.
Later, when Rocky felt well enough to get up, he left the tent with Marcia. As soon as they stepped outside, he found the ruins left by the previous war, where the members of the Dragon Master Clan were busy cleaning up the mess and treating the injured.
As soon as Rex fell, the Mu Clan and their allied forces smoothly occupied the tribe of the Dragon Master Clan. Forces. Those who were originally loyal to Rex surrendered.
The internal strife of the Dragon Master Clan that had lasted for a long time finally came to an end.
Moira, who was directing several elders of the Dragon Master Clan as they cleaned the mess, rushed over as soon as she saw Rocky and Marcia. She stopped direc
t of nowhere, they would have no chance of winning.
"Reginald really colluded with another clan," Rocky said with certainty, his eyebrows furrowed.
"What are you talking about?" Marcia and Moira immediately asked, turning to Rocky at the same time with identical looks of confusion.
Rocky told them what had transpired when he followed Reginald. He revealed how he found out that Reginald had conspired with another clan, as well as the fight between him and Reginald.
Upon hearing this, Marcia, Moira, and the other members of the Dragon Master Clan were astonished. They didn't expect that before Rocky fought Rex, he had already locked horns with Reginald, and Rocky had even defeated him. Although Reginald was ranked quite low among the spiritual masters of the Dragon Master Clan, he was still a spiritual master. He was certainly not weak, but a human like Rocky had defeated him. Even though Rocky had also injured Reginald last time, this time it was a complete defeat. This showed how much Rocky had improved, and now, his strength had become terrifying. Perhaps, it could make any warrior of the spiritual race below the level of spiritual masters run for their mothers.
However, what surprised Moira and the others most was that Reginald was a traitor who had betrayed the Dragon Master Clan. This unknown army of the spiritual race was very likely to have plotted with Reginald, trying to take advantage of the internal strife of the Dragon Master Clan and reap the benefit!
