In the morning, Dustin heard a loud knock on his door as soon as he woke up.
When he opened the door, he saw Grace standing outside with breakfast in her hands. She bought milk, bagels, sausage,scrambled eggs, and a lot of other things.
“Have some breakfast. | have to talk to you." Grace smiled slightly as she put the breakfast set on the table and sat on a chair.
"Thanks." Dustin didn't shy away. He started wolfing down as soon as he sat down next to her. Even though it was a normalbreakfast, everything tasted surprisingly good.
"What do you want to tell me? I'm listening," Dustin asked as he munched on the bagel.
"| got some news this morning. In a nutshell, there are three pieces of important news." Grace stood up and made two cups ofcoffee. One for herself and another for Dustin.
She then continued, "First, there's been a series of strange phenomena at the Sacred Wrym Summit for the past few days.According to my informants, it could be due to Dracan essence!"
“Really?” Dustin raised his eyebrows slightly and said thoughtfully, "The Sacred Wrym Summit is a good place. It's not surprisingif Dracan essence is detected there."
"Second, there's news that there will be a Combat Tournament at the Sacred Wrym Summit in five days. The winner will receivea secret treasure from the Ancient Sage!" Grace spoke up again.
“Combat Tournament?" Dustin was a little curious. "The Sacred Wrym Summit has always kept a low profile and they aren'tconcerned about world events.
"Why would they host a Combat Tournament? Also, what's this secret treasure from the Ancient Sage?"
"I'm curious about that too." Grace sipped some coffee and continued, "The Sacred Wrym Summit has always kept a distancefrom the rest of the martial world.
"This time, it's shocking that they are doing the exact opposite. Everyone in the martial world is very astonished to hear this aswell.
"As for the secret treasure, no one knows anything about it. The only thing that we know for sure is that this treasure is veryspecial due to the importance it holds for the Sacred Wrym Summit.
“Everyone in the martial world is making their way to the Sacred Wrym Summit as soon as they hear about the competition.”
The royal family was wary of only two places, one was the West Lucozian monarchy and the other one was the Sacred WrymSummit.
The monarchy had control of a very large and elite army and the latter was ruled by Arion Foyer, a very old Ancient Sage.
Even though these two places were in the territory of Dragonmarsh, they were not under the rule of the royal family. Well, to beexact, the royal family had no authority over them.
"There must be a reason behind this change. It's possible that it's related to the strange phenomena.” Dustin speculated.
“We'll find out the truth when we make a trip to the Sacred Wrym Summit." Grace smiled lightly.
"What about the third piece of news that you wanted to tell me?" Dustin asked.
"This is just hearsay. It hasn't been confirmed." Grace continued, "There's news that Arion Foyer, the Ancient Sage, has reachedthe Empyrean State and is about to attain celestial glory."novelbin
“Attain celestial glory?" Dustin was suddenly quiet after hearing that.
Arion Foyer was a legendary figure and his status as a living god was well established. He had lived a very long life, he wasalready approaching the age of 200 years old.
It was very shocking for the martial world as well as the authorities to hear about Arion Foyer attaining celestial glory."What do you think... Is the Ancient Sage attaining celestial glory? Or is he dying?" Grace asked in return.
"| don't know." Dustin shook his head. "The Ancient Sage has reached a level that is beyond our comprehension. | think it'snormal if anything extraordinary happens to him."
"That's true." Grace nodded in agreement.
There might have been past incidents of other ultimate grandmasters attaining celestial glory, but they were all a farce. However,it was a different case when it came to Arion Foyer.
For the commoners, Arion Foyer was a godlike existence. They wouldn't even bat an eyelid if something divine and miraculoushappened to him.
