Hearing Julius' explanation made the whit figure sigh as if he had been winning a game of chess for the entire time but in a single turn, he had been checkmated.

"Well, I guess I've been beat. What is it that you want now?" the white figure asked Julius.

"You should already know what I want from you. There's only one useful thing you can provide me, that being magic!" Julius demanded.

"Okay sure, I'll let you start learning magic but first I need to know your status points and your levels," the white figure requested which Julius agreed to. Even in the realm he was in, Julius was able to access his database.

"Wow, I didn't even realize that I managed to rank up that much. Although my cultivation through battle level is a bit disappointing," said Julius as he announced his rank, level and status points for each aspect.

"I guess I can allow you to start learning magic. It shouldn't be too difficult for you due to your skill status points being so high. However I would recommend that you wake up for now and then you return once you go to sleep since you wouldn't want to raise suspicion about you learning magic," the white figure said and before Julius could even agree, he had woken back up from his slumber.

"You took a bit longer to wake up than the last time you did this, did something happen?" Jun asked with a worried expression.

"No no, it was nothing. I managed to absorb the scroll fine. I want to test it out right now," said Julius as he got up from the ground with his hand placed forward.

<<Secret Art: Ruby Dragon>>

Just as Julius had hoped, the secret art allowed him to summon a dragon of his own. However unlike Jun, Julius' dragon was crimson red as it resembled that of a ruby.

"Wow," Jun said as he was left baffled as he had spent over a year trying to learn the dragon summoning secret art using the chanting method and now his student had done it within just a few minutes. To add salt to the wound, Julius didn't have to use any of his stamina to summon the ruby dragon while Jun had to use a majority of his stamina for secret arts as powerful as the jade dragon.

"Master Jun, now that I have my dragon, can you give me the other scrolls as well, I want to learn them already," Julius asked which his master looked back at him with a straight face.

"Nope. I already said that I would only allow you to get them once your training was over," Jun replied to his student.

"Fine! It's not fair but I'll wait until my training is finally over. I can already feel the end coming," said Julius with ambition.

"Fair? What would you know about fairness? You were blessed with having the ability to master anything without having to go through the gruelling part of it. You have a second entity which acts as your guardian angel when you're in danger and you were also born into a royal family. You're the one who doesn't know anything about fairness," Jun said in his head but not to his student as he couldn't allow his disciple to learn that his teacher was jealous of him.

"Well, you've got you hands on the scroll you wanted so what do you want to do now?" Jun asked his student.

"I think it's time we visit Dae and Knight," Julius said with an eager smile on his face which made Jun sigh.

"Look Julius, the reason which I've been avoiding them is because they're held prisoner inside one of the great kingdoms. If you were to go there, we could get in to a lot of trouble since we've already messed with Mary and Steward. If we keeping going like this, the rulers of the great kingdoms might just decide to hunt us with their combined power," Jun explained.

"Please, I've been working so hard so that I wouldn't have to worry about them and you even saw what I did to Steward. All I want is to get those two on my side and I'll be happy for quite a while," Julius said with his puppy eyes as he begged to go to the great kingdom.

"Okay fine! But we don't be going in out casual cloths. We'll be robbing the place! As such, we'll need to get our selves a couple masks and black attire. To add on, we'll also be taking your dragon to the kingdom since if they see my dragon, they'll catch on but with your one, we'll be able to be I recognizable," Jun finally agreed which made Julius happier than he ever imagined he would be.

In just a couple of months, the Julius who was so formal that he even talked to his parents formally along with everyone else. The child who viewed as everyone as nothing but trash. The prince who had been trained since he was but a child to become king as everything would be handed to him. The peak of arrogance known as Julius who had always put up a fake front had changed into a man who found pleasure in training. Julius began to care for those below him and wanted to make a better world for them. He had begun to use his power and influence to actually cause a positive change in the world as he continuously trained in hopes of taking down those who wished to continue the cycle of unequal footing between people.

"What are you spacing out for? We have to go get ourselves some robbery attire then we have a great kingdom to rob. You can be getting distracted!" Jun said to his student as he himself was already in the ruby dragon. With a joyful expression, Julius also got on the ruby dragon as he commanded his pet to begin flight.

"You don't know how to fly this dragon right?" Jun asked.

"Nope!"
