Chapter 1098: Chapter 776 Roger’s Cabin: LV3!

Kenneth grit his teeth; the fusion process was far more painful than he’d imagined. He wasn’t sure what liquid Roger had given him to drink, but as the armor began to cover him, signs of recovery appeared in his injuries.

"You’ve sacrificed too much to reach the Fifth Tier," Roger frowned. Of course, he had no grounds to criticize Kenneth given the circumstances.

After all, Kenneth did this partly for self-rescue and, in a way, helped Roger considerably.

Emil and his nephew truly played a pivotal role in Roger’s return.

Moreover, without Emil’s warning, Roger would have been completely ignorant of the Lord of the Mist, leading to many complications.

Though he didn’t express it, he was genuinely grateful to both Kenneth and Emil.

"Relax, you’ve injured your source. Don’t even think about moving forward; surviving is a blessing."

"However, with this armor, things have changed. Since physical source recovery is impossible, external methods can compensate."

"You and Emil come from the same clan; this armor is indeed the essence of his blood’s strength. As he said, due to his rule properties, the power is unleashed more effectively after death."

"What I need to do now is to reverse this process, using his essence to offset your source loss. At that point, the armor will merely be a superficial guard; the true strength will transform into you."

Kenneth easily understood Roger’s explanation, yet executing it seemed nearly impossible.

A mastery of many powers of rules was required, each needing high proficiency.

"I can’t do this; doing so means killing him!" Kenneth struggled to sit up.

Roger was stern, "Emil is already dead. Accepting his power and inheriting his legacy is what you should do."

"The situation is complicated. Your half-brother wants to kill you, and your father..." Roger shook his head.

"To be honest, if you can’t fuse Emil’s power, I’d even forcibly take you away, because staying here means a path to death!"

"Please don’t do this, Mr. Roger!"

"I can’t leave!"

"I know my father; he’s powerful and suspicious. Once he decides something, it’s hard to change. If I leave here, then my mother... I’m afraid he’ll do something terrible."

"So Mr. Roger, I beg you to help me one last favor!"

With that, Kenneth knelt on the ground.

"Please help me save my mother!"

Fearing Roger would misunderstand, he quickly explained, "Don’t worry, I have some ideas about this issue already, just lacking a trusted candidate now."

"First, we go through the special channel back to the Ancestral Land. I will take the initiative to attract his attention, allowing you an opportunity."

Kenneth lowered his head to the ground, "I know this request is excessive, especially as it’s already your second time saving me."

"But to rescue my mother, I really have no other option left. To achieve this goal, I would pay any price."

"Including my body, including my soul!"

Roger’s cheek muscles twitched, for although he knew the mentioned body referred to the strong power and bloodline of the Silver Dragon Clan.

These words inevitably led to misinterpretation.

"There must be some misunderstanding," Kenneth spoke again.

"Uncle Emil once speculated through some clues about changes in my father, also mentioning the pursuit of my mother in the past."

"He said he withdrew from the competition because my mother told him she already had someone in mind."

"He and Mother were innocent."

Sighing, he continued, "What I didn’t expect was... Patrick turned out to be my brother."

"What exactly did he do?"

"Did Uncle Emil know nothing about this, or did he pretend everything never happened?"

The two brothers, one honest and upright, one narrow-minded and suspicious.

Moreover, now Emil was dead; discussing the past would be difficult.

"Maybe Emil knew after all."

Roger said.

"Is Emil’s wife still alive...?"

Kenneth shook his head sadly, "She’s already passed away; she died after giving birth to Patrick."

"Patrick was a premature baby. It’s rumored he suffered unknown injuries before birth, which made him physically weak and slowed his growth in power."

"Uncle Emil paid a great price for his current achievements, something even Father doesn’t know."

"At that time, I was already an adult but was focused on learning and cultivation, thus knowing little."

"All I knew was Uncle Emil was deeply sad and even left for a long time."

Truth be told, Roger didn’t know Emil long, but through some actions of the Remnant Soul, he could infer the character of the Main Soul.

His unwavering support for the weak, adherence to promises, disregard for life and death, pursuit of honor without being overly rigid.

His actions truly lived up to the title of Dragon Saint.

If this were the case, then Emil likely knew the real truth.

Roger could hardly imagine the situation faced by a man whose wife, whether willingly or forced, bore a child of his brother.
