Chapter 1561
Birk, well aware of Meldrick’s sentiments, observed the latter’s displeased countenance and knew
that Meldrick was deeply unsettled. However, he paid little mind to Meldrick’s frustration because
his talents were still rather ordinary. Furthermore, Severin’s alchemical prowess was remarkable,
even surpassing that of the two grand elders, while Meldrick had no aptitude for alchemy
whatsoever.
Meldrick sat down beside Birk. He had been promoted to protector a few days ago, and it was
supposed to be a cause for joy. However, his mood has plummeted since then.
After a moment of contemplation, he began, “T’d like to express some of my concerns about Sofia
marrying an unaffiliated practitioner. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for her to marry a sect
leader’s son or a gifted member of our sect? Aren’t you worried that her reputation might be in
jeopardy after you allowed him to marry someone like that?”
Birk’s silence prompted Meldrick to continue, “Worse still, that man already has two wives. Shell
just be another addition to his harem. Given her character and status, there’s no telling whether
she would face hardships in the future.” novelbin
Birk, however, wore a smile as he replied, “I’ve met him. His talent and character are indisputably good, while his attainment is also commendably high. As a bonus, he is also a very accomplished alchemist.”
After pausing briefly, Birk added, “They have a rather harmonious relationship as
well, and I don’t foresee any discord among them. This, to me, is good enough.”
After confirming the man’s identity, Meldrick inquired. “This young man is Severin, correct?”
Birk nodded. “Yes. He’s a third–grade alchemist with astounding talent.”
“Third–grade alchemist!” Meldrick’s expression soured upon learning that Severin was a third- grade alchemist. Severin’s attainment would probably be at least a level five or level six warrior emperor, so it was no wonder that Birk held him in such high regard.
At that moment, Meldrick realized that he could not hope to keep pace with Severin’s accomplishments despite his persistent efforts. Severin and Birk might be a third–grade low–rank or medium–rank alchemist, but Meldrick was at most a third–grade low–rank alchemist. Birk’s glee could be explained by the sheer number of third–grade low–rank pills that were given to him
Meldrick could only smile wryly and make a respectful gesture toward Birk. “I understand I am in no position to say anything else if you are satisfied with him. He excels in almost every aspect
fine.”

He then turned around and left. Birk could only shake his head in resignation. Deep down, he
knew that Sofia held no affection for Meldrick, and several members of neighboring sects were
miles ahead of Meldrick in terms of talent and various other aspects. Meldrick’s affection for Sofia
would remain unrequited forever, regardless of how much effort he put in to win her over.
