In the middle of nowhere, Clovis’ grandfather, Michael Hacfield, was staring at his phone while smiling. "That’s my boy. It seems that he has left the country. No one can stop him anymore. Should I warn that country not to do anything to him as well?
"No. I believe he will have the strength to take care of it himself. Besides, Gerald should be meeting him sooner or later. I guess I don’t have to worry about them.
"The only problem is these old geezers, trying to kill my descendants. Should I also hunt their successors as well to stop them? If not for the fact that a lot of countries will end up targeting my grandson because I interfere too much, I wouldn’t have played this stupid game.
"I just hope that he is able to do it." Michael let out a long sigh before glancing to the side. There was a tree that was so high that its roots pierced through underground and reached the magma, its trunk was so tall that it pierced the cloud.
"So, this is the World Tree. I guess gazing from the top of the world will be quite amazing. I wonder which country I should visit next to distract them." Michael smirked.

Clovis’ mother, Aisha, walked into the office while carrying out a document. "This is the item I need."
"Are you really going to operate on that kid?" Gerald Hacfield asked.
"Yeah. He is the younger brother of my son’s comrade, so of course, I would treat him. However, his situation is a bit too serious."
"Don’t tell me, you sneak out to check on the kid?"
"Of course not. I’m just searching for the medical record and making a few assumptions. Clovis is able to reach Tier 2 in less than a year, so he should be able to reach Tier 5 in another one and a half years to two years. So I have to be prepared."
Gerald paused for a moment. "Are you not worried about him?"
"How could I not be worried? We left him when he was so young. If not for the old man, I would love to stay with him, even if it means acting as if I’m just a normal person." Aisha sighed. "Anyway, Clovis and his team should be arriving by now.
"However, it seems that he is being chased by a person. The country is trying to retain him after knowing his potential and identity." Aisha crossed her arms.
"I know, I know. I’ll take care of that." Gerald paused for a moment. "Still, what is actually going on with him? I have heard about it, but I can’t really understand. The one with the super injection."
Aisha scratched the back of her head. "To put it basically, Clovis is able to move in that place, fighting against the beasts. The first clue is about him not having a single beast soul. The second factor is that his mind has been trained to a certain extent. Last but not least, it’s his unique potential.
"Father-in-law said the reason why he would never succeed in discovering the truth about this world is due to the first reason and his lack of potential. It’s like the barrier between Tier 8 and Tier 9. An invisible barrier that no ordinary person can pass through."
Gerald frowned. "But if I’m not wrong, Clovis’ teammates…"
"Yeah. I don’t know what his unique ability is. But if he can actually allow ordinary people to ’break through’ that barrier, the entire world will be turned upside down."
"Is that the reason for crazy prophets aiming for us?"
"Indeed. I’m sick of it, but if we don’t leave him, we don’t have enough numbers to protect him. Even though it makes me mad, it really can’t be helped. I don’t know why that mad prophet is trying to stop Clovis, but he is probably related to the truth of this world, considering his background is rather suspicious."
"Well… not that we can fight him since he is a Tier 9 human. Even if Father wants to beat him up, that crazy prophet will know and get help from other Tier 9 humans. Unfortunately, we can only sit back this time."
"Yeah. That’s why I want to prepare everything so that he doesn’t need to worry and can continue moving forward. This is the least I can do."
"Is that why you release the information about your student, Waold, regarding the beast soul?"
"Money, power, and connection. Those three are what he needs. That research is the only thing I can give to him right now." Aisha sighed.
Gerald smiled wryly. He also had given Clovis the Star Method, but just like how she felt, he always thought it wasn’t enough. Sadly, there was nothing they could do.
…
On the border between Axionia and Sabalom, two buses passed through the border post, with the team dispatched by the OpenSky Company taking care of everything.
If one looked at the bottom of the table, there was a thick brown envelope containing cash. The soldiers only proceeded with the usual procedure and let them go.
They saw nothing, heard nothing, and pretended there was nothing.
Due to Hana’s connection and bribe, the process went smoothly.
They were a bit nervous since they knew what was chasing them. Even with the team Hana dispatched, they wouldn’t stand a chance against a Tier 8 human. Hence, they had to be fast if they wanted to escape completely.
Not long after, a muscular old man wearing a long coat reached the border. He had cold eyes as he gazed at the peaceful border post.
The earphone on his right ear echoed, "They have been spotted through this border thirty minutes ago. But that’s all we can find. You need to go straight before going back within fifteen minutes, or we would end up alarming Sabalom."
"Alright." The old man replied with a deep, heavy voice. He leaped forward as fast as he could, his step was so powerful that it left behind a crater.
