Three weeks passed quickly, and Moss had grown a lot, reaching level 27. After testing his level, Moss opened the system’s panel with anticipation and clicked on the class evolution information.

A familiar window popped up again, “Level 30 evolution route: Holy Light Knight, Great Dark Knight, Hell Knight, Elite Knight.”

‘Wait, is there a new condition?’ Moss was delighted when he saw the question mark behind Holy Light Knight had turned red.

He quickly clicked on it and found there was indeed a change in its contents.

“Holy Belief value: 315/500.”

“Mount Growth value: 56/100.”

“Total Mystic Realms cleared: 68/100.”

“Miscellaneous: Insufficient Holy Belief value, unable to display more information.”

‘Will there be a new notification when my Holy Belief value reaches a certain point?’

Moss looked at his Holy Belief value and the new hidden condition and thought the two were linked. It seemed he needed to quickly increase his Holy Belief values so the system would reveal the hidden condition.

The direction of Moss’s efforts also became more apparent. Besides learning about the hidden conditions, Little Seven’s growth also excited Moss.

‘Little Seven is growing pretty quickly.’

Moss touched his interspace ring, and a charming smile appeared across his face.

…

A mock college entrance exam took place during the weekend. The end of that exam meant the students could independently arrange their time for the next four weeks.

Smug smiles appeared on students’ faces as they exited the exam hall. They knew the mock test was relatively simple. The students were happy, but the teachers were frowning.

The mock test was easy because the students combined their previous knowledge and experiences. Still, the mock exams could not compare to the actual college entrance exams.

Moss and the Guardians were in a good mood after the mock exams.

“What’re you guys’ plans next?” Moss smilingly asked when he saw the rest of the Guardians exiting the exam hall.

“I’ll head home for now, Captain Moss. I’ll adjust the rest of my preparation plans when the teachers reveal our mock exam results,” Baylon said to Moss with gratitude in his eyes.

The Guardians could persevere through anything because of Moss’s help and encouragement.

“I’m returning to my family. They attach great importance to my performance in the college entrance exams. My grandpa wants to guide me personally.” Bass was reluctant but did not dare go against his family’s wishes.

“I want to see my mother before looking at the mock exam’s results. I might return to school later too.” Initially, Alan did not feel comfortable when the others talked about their families, but after some thought, he felt even more eager to see his mother.

“Where will you go next, Moss?” Mill blinked her big eyes and asked.

“I have nothing to do except go home and see my parents. I haven’t thought of anywhere else to go,” Moss calmly replied as he thought of what else he could do.

Still, if he could not find an answer, he would continue training in school or visit the three-star Mystic Realm near his grandfather’s home.

“W-Why don’t you come to my house to train?” Mill said charmingly, her cheeks flushed red.

“That would be great!”

“Mill is also applying for the top ten institutes, so you two can discuss some things together.”

“Yeah, I think so too.”

The others said thoughtfully. Then the three Guardians excused themselves, leaving only Mill and Moss alone.

“I-I don’t think I should impose on your family,” Moss responded to Mill’s offer.

“Oh, no, it’s okay. My family initially opposed it because they had a rule: non-family members below level 20 aren’t allowed to enter the family’s secret training base. Still, I already told my family about you, so they expect me to bring someone home to train with me.”

“Yeah, but it’s because your family has internal resources that I can’t go,” Moss said.

Mill panicked when she heard Moss’s explanation.

Sure, her family opposed it, but they immediately changed their minds when they heard Mill would bring Moss with her. They even insisted that Mill bring him over because it would benefit her to train with someone like Moss. Mill also promised she would bring Moss along when she returned.

It was fortunate no one else knew about Mill’s thoughts. Otherwise, they would cause a misunderstanding.

Mill bit her lip slightly and did not know where to put her hands. Her anxious expression was rather adorable.

Suddenly, she smiled till her eyes resembled crescent moons. She said, “Moss, you haven’t made up for my lack of sleep during the elite training program. You were supposed to protect me at the dorm while I slept but didn’t. Do you remember?”

Moss was stunned as he quickly recalled his countless memories with Mill. Finally, he remembered what he promised Mill during the elite training program. “Y-Yes, I remember that.”

“Good, now you can come home with me, and we can train together. Then I’ll consider us even,” after saying that, Mill skipped toward the school gate.

However, she noticed Moss did not move, so she pouted and pretended to be angry. “What, are you going back on your word again?”

“I-I’m not going to be at your home for just one day, right? I-I’ll need to pack some clothes and stuff.”

“Nope! My family will have everything you need.”

“B-But I must go and see my parents before leaving.”

“Okay, then let’s go together. We’ll set off from your home once you’re ready.” A sly smile flashed across Mill’s face.

Still, Moss refused to budge, so Mill immediately revealed her girly side and urged, “Principal Na’er once said that there’s no time like today, so let’s start now.”

Mill pulled Moss toward the school gate as she spoke.

…

Mill’s meal at Moss’s house was the most delicious and complete meal she had recently eaten. She was indeed tired of eating at the school’s cafeteria.

Mill finally tasted Alexis’s superb cooking skills as she kept putting food into Mill’s bowl. After speaking a bit, Mill almost burped at the dining table a few times but had strong self-control. Otherwise, she would ruin her image of being a wealthy family member.

Moss tried to enjoy his mother’s cooking, but Ray kept exchanging glances with him. Moss was sincere as he answered all his parents’ questions, but he did not know how much his father understood or misunderstood.

Although Moss had trouble enjoying his meal, he saw his parents’ delightful smiles before leaving again. He felt great comfort in his heart.

…

Moss and Mill’s journey was quiet the whole time. When Moss finally opened his eyes, he realized the car had already driven into a huge manor. He looked around for a long while but could not find an end to the manor.

The manor exuded a sense of history, and gold inlay littered the building. It was as if the manor was telling the world of its nobility and antiquity. The considerable-sized holy sword symbol on each building’s front represented the family’s noble class.

Soon after, the car stopped, and Mill woke up from sleep. Then an older gentleman opened the car door and respectfully greeted the duo, “Welcome Home, Miss Mill! Welcome, Young Master Moss!”

Moss was stunned that someone had called him young master. However, that was not the only thing that shocked him. He realized the older gentleman was not an ordinary person.

The older gentleman’s spiritual power and aura were far more potent than the Deans from the top ten institutes. Moss could not help but admire the great swordsman family even more.

“Let’s go, Moss. This is our butler, Fox,” Mill introduced the older gentleman to Moss.

Moss nodded as Fox smiled and bowed in response. As soon as the three entered the manor, Moss was shocked by what he saw. There was a dome atop the four stories high structure, and crystal lamps littered the ceiling. It resembled a vast galaxy when Moss looked up.

Under the galaxy-like dome ceiling was a banner with the words “Welcome home, Young Master Moss!” It was attention-grabbing for sure. Various flowers and colorful ribbons were also under the banner, which looked extravagant.

Countless balloons rose toward the ceiling when they walked in. It was as if colorful hot-air balloons were floating toward the vast galaxy. At the same time, more than 20 tall men in black suits shouted in unison, “Welcome home, Miss Mill! Welcome, Young Master Moss!”

It was all simply magnificent.
