My Aloof Sisters Asked for My Forgiveness



Pop...

It was as if a barrier within Zion's body had shattered. His pure energy surged freely through every part of his body and filled him with an overwhelming sense of strength.

He felt like he could split mountains and tear through the earth with a single strike.

Snapping back to awareness, he felt a fiery heat coursing through him. He let out a loud roar and thrust his palm against one of the thick stone pillars in the restaurant.

A deep palm print appeared on the pillar. He had nearly punched through its massive structure...

Staring at the mark he had left, Zion's eyes widened in disbelief.

With his previous prowess in the ninth grade, he could barely leave a faint impression on such a pillar, let alone something this profound.

"This is..." Zion stammered as he tried to find his words.

"What happened, Master Fox?" he finally asked as he snapped back to reality.

Dustin smiled faintly.

"I infused a trace of my pure energy into you. It helped to lift the obstructions in your body and allowed you to break through," Dustin said casually. "W-What?!" Zion felt his entire body shake.

"Are you saying... I've broken through to the sovereign grade?"

Dustin nodded.

Zion quickly summoned his pure energy and focused inward to examine the state of his body.

The energy coursing through him at present was a raging torrent compared to the trickle he had known before.

"I... I've really broken through!" Zion exclaimed in surprise.

He had been stuck in the ninth grade for years...

He had spent years fretting over that boundary in frustration. Many times, he had almost lost his mind.

Who would have known that today would be the day that something impossible would become possible?

He had reached the sovereign grade!

"Thank you, Master Fox!"noveldrama

Zion bowed deeply to Dustin. The gratitude he felt could not be conveyed by words alone.

This was a favor too immense to ever repay!

"Master Fox... are you alright?" he asked in concern.

Using one's own pure energy to elevate another's martial level was a perilous technique. It was often severely draining to the doer. Dustin's action had pushed him into the sovereign grade, so Zion assumed the damage to Dustin must have been great.

Yet, Dustin remained unruffled as he waved his hand dismissively.

"A mere strand of pure energy is nothing to me.

"Consider it your reward."

He was not lying. Given his level of mastery and his powerful pure

energy it indeed wa

for him to help Zion with the breakthrough.

Zion was more shocked than ever.

It was difficult for him to estimate Dustin's prowess.

"No ordinary Martial Saint could perform such a feat. Master Fox, your abilities are beyond my imagination!"

Zion's respect for Dustin was absolute.

"From this day forward, I will serve you with unwavering loyalty and will do anything for you!" he declared solemnly.

Before, his allegiance to Dustin had been bound by the authority of the Martial League's Supreme Token. But from then on, it stemmed from genuine admiration and respect.

'One strand of pure energy, and it propelled someone to the sovereign grade...'

Allison's face showed a flicker of mixed emotions.

'He truly is a man worthy of my approval...' she thought as her gaze filled with admiration for Dustin.

Shawna was unfamiliar with martial

arts, and she could not grasp the details of the conversation between Dustin and Zion. But she, too, was deeply shaken.

After all, Zion was the branch leader of the Martial League in Grayvale. He was a man even Clayton had treated with caution and respect. Watching Zion bow so humbly to Dustin, Shawna finally understood the vast difference between her and Dustin.

She realized she barely understood Dustin.

He was a man capable of casually spending tens of millions on a luxury villa and commanding the submission of Grayvale's elite figure. Shawna's face was unreadable as an undeniable sense of distance settled over her. Somewhere deep inside, her feelings were shifting.
