Fredrinn Firecrown: The Weakest Villain

Time passed by, unknowingly.

The banquet hosted by the Firecrown Household finally began. Almost all the powerful martial households in Red Sun City were invited. There were even visitors from other parts of the Star Wind Kingdom. However, the most notable guests were still the members of the supreme households and Princess Danielle who came in the name of the royal family.

In the last few days, discussions about the Firecrown Household's heir spread like wildfire. It was said that he was only one step closer to reaching the peak of the Nascent Soul realm, an achievement that was unheard of in the entire history of the kingdom. This placed him in the same realm as the legendary geniuses written in history books.

Because of his rising fame, Fredrinn didn't dare step out of his study room. He just stayed there most of the time and monitored the progress of his closest aides.

At this moment, Fredrinn was sitting on Sean's back as the latter was doing push-ups.

Sean's face was covered in sweat and it looked like he would collapse at any moment.

"Are you tired?" Fredrinn asked while looking at his reflection in a hand mirror.

"N-No, my lord!" Sean gritted his teeth.

"Keep going. If you drop me, I'll tell Cain to increase your training time." Fredrinn chuckled as he put down the mirror.

"Y-Yes, my lord!" Sean's arms trembled as he pushed himself to the absolute limits. He only had a low-grade spirit root so he was very diligent in his physical training. It was even to the extent that he would overexert himself. He learned this self-torturing method from Cain.

Fredrinn turned his gaze to the side where the three ladies, Olivia, Alice, and Freya were gathered. They were sitting cross-legged while performing the breathing method of their respective cultivation techniques.

Upon closer inspection, one could see a faint glow from the markings on the ground beneath them. It was an array formation that significantly increased cultivation speed. This was an array that was engraved by Elder Ardul, their household's array formation maker.

Other than this array formation, they were also provided with top-notch cultivation resources.

With all these resources at their disposal, their cultivation had increased by leaps and bounds in just a short amount of time. Though most of it was largely attributed to their talent.

The ones who displayed the greatest growth among the four were Olivia and Alice. These two had excellent-grade spirit roots and coupled with their diligence, they continuously broke through as if there was no obstruction in their path.

Fredrinn activated his battle scouter to inspect their progress.

Olivia had the highest cultivation at the 7th layer of the Qi Gathering realm. She was closely followed by Alice who was at the 6th layer. Meanwhile, Freya who only had a superior-grade spirit root and even started later than them had just recently stepped into the 10th layer of the Body Refining realm.

As for Sean who had a low-grade spirit root… He was only at the 3rd layer of the Body Refining realm even after exhausting many pills and refined energy stones. He progressed at a snail's pace. It was truly regrettable since he was the most diligent in the group.

Suddenly, they heard a series of knocking on the door.

"My lord, it's me." Kristine's voice echoed.

"Come in. It's not locked."

"Alright. Excuse me." Kristine pushed the door and entered. She wasn't surprised when she saw them training. She was also among the select few that Fredrinn had trained. Because of this, she progressed considerably to the point that even she was astonished.

Fredrinn stared at Kristine and inspected her cultivation.

[Foundation Establishment 3rd Layer]

In just slightly over a month, she advanced by two layers! It was a progress that would have normally taken her almost two years!

"My lord!" She performed a simple salute.

Fredrinn waved his hand. "What is it?" He asked impatiently.

Kristine didn't make her wait and said. "Lord Roland is asking for your presence at the banquet hall. The main event will soon start and your presence is required."

Hearing this, Fredrinn promptly stood up. "Is it finally time?" He smiled.

"Yes, my lord." Kristine nodded.

Sean collapsed on the floor, exhausted beyond repair. He was breathing heavily like a dog who had almost drowned to death. His sweat trickled down his face before falling to the floor. Experience tales at m-vl-e-mpyr

Seeing this, Fredrinn smirked. "Sean, you better wipe the floor and make sure that it's clean when I come back."

Sean didn't even have the energy to utter a word. He only emitted a soft grunt to acknowledge his instruction.

"You guys stay here and continue with your training. It's not yet time for you to reveal yourselves to the world."

"Yes, my lord!" The ladies nodded in understanding. Fredrinn told them that they were his secret force, but they knew that they were still far from being of use to him.

After giving them a few more instructions, Fredrinn went to his closet and changed into the attire he prepared for the banquet.

Crimson Dragon Ceremonial Yishang [Epic]

- Increases the wearer's charm and endurance by 1 point.

- Flame spells at the Nascent Soul realm and below are automatically nullified.

Fredrinn spent 1500 fate points to buy this from the fate shop which left him with 7875 fate points.

The ceremonial yishang looked striking with its design. The dragon pattern at the back looked like it could devour the entire world.

When he wore it, his entire being seemed to have transformed into the progeny of the flame god! He looked sharp and devilishly handsome.

Of course, he didn't forget to wear the Armor of Eternal Strength beneath his yishang as an added assurance. Who knows? Maybe another idiot would come to provoke him at the banquet.

After making sure that his hair was nicely fixed, he smiled contentedly and left the closet.

"How do I look?" He asked the stunned Kristine.

"You look dashing, my lord." She promptly replied with a smile.

"Great! Let's go to the banquet hall." Fredrinn was ready to face the honored guests.
