Noah's statement made the three nobles gasp in surprise.
The battle had happened almost two years before, which meant that Noah had become a rank 2 mage by the age of eighteen!
A monster!
An unparalleled genius!
Their thoughts couldn't be calmed in a short amount of time, Noah was the youngest rank 2 mage that had ever existed in the cultivation history!
Noah didn't mind waiting for them to accept the situation, he was cultivating after all, his real intentions were to buy enough time for him to recover.
"You must have gained a lot from your cooperation with the Royals, their missions aren't always that ethical though."
Daniel spoke, seemingly hiding a different meaning behind his words.
"I did some bad stuff if that's what you're asking, I'm not really ashamed of my actions. I needed resources and they were willing to pay, that's it."
"So, would you sell yourself to them just to continue cultivating?"
Troy was still heated.
Noah's last revelation had surprised him even more, he had finally understood that he had never been Noah's equal.
"Yes."
Noah didn't explain further but his eyes seemed to be enveloped by a dark light.
The nobles watched as his aura became colder, he resembled a beast encircled by enemies.
'Does he see the entire world as his enemy?'
Daniel had that thought seeing Noah's reaction.
'Alone. He is completely alone in a world that wants to make use of him. He hid his element for so long and secretly worked with the Royal family through all this time only to reach my level. Admirable.'
Daniel praised in his mind.
He had realized long ago his privileged position.
Not only his family was one of the most powerful among the noble families, but he had also been nurtured as the main heir since his aptitude was discovered.
The reason why he had so many spells of the light element was that his family had spent an exorbitant sum of money to purchase them, sometimes they have had to deal with other countries to purchase them.
Yet, a man younger than him who had no support whatsoever managed to reach his level.
'I wonder to what length he had to push his moral compass to obtain such strength.'
Talent had only a small influence on the improvements of a cultivator.
Resources and hard work were the means by which someone could become strong.
"So, what do you want to talk about?"
Daniel had internally recognized him as his equal, it was time to hear his intentions.
Noah turned his gaze toward him before speaking.
"The Royals speak quite openly about some of their political struggles. I know about the Cause and how the noble families want to use you as a flag for their revolution."

"And?"
Daniel's eyebrow arched as Noah compared him to a flag.
"The Royals have been trying to tighten their leash on me for quite some time already and I don't have the strength to escape their control. Yet, there is a power that is planning to depose them and that could give me the freedom that I want. I want to join the Cause."
