The Medallion Chapter 1017 The Most Wanted Thing Was To Take Revenge

"Mr. Rookie, is there anything bothering you?" A sweet voice came from behind Rocky, startling him.

He whirled around and saw Lucilla, who walking gracefully toward him.

"Chief Lucilla, what brings you out here?" Rocky asked with a faint smile pulling at the corners of his
mouth.

"Please, call me Lucilla. I just wanted to thank you for protecting Queenie that day. If it weren't for you,
Mr. Rookie, she would have been in danger," Lucilla said gratefully. She greatly appreciated what
Rocky had done for her and the Cao Clan, whether it was intentional or not.

"It's no big deal. Anyway, it's the last time." Rocky calmly shook his head.

She couldn't help the gasp that escaped her lips when she heard his words. Her face paled slightly, and
her hands trembled by her side. Although she was mentally prepared, she didn't expect that this
moment would come so soon. "Are you leaving so soon?"

"I have finished what I planned to do in the Timber Deity Empire. There is no reason for me to stay.
Besides, I have other important things to do," Rocky said bluntly.

"I see..." she murmured quietly, looking pitiful and sad.

"What's wrong? Are you missing me already?" replied Rocky jokingly, as his own way of lightening the
mood.

"Maybe you are right, but I know you won't stay for me, Mr. Rookie," she answered straightforwardly.
From the start, she had a feeling that Rocky could not be hers alone, so she did not harbor any
illusions.



"You are right. I cannot stay, but you can consider going with me, as long as you are willing to let go of
everything you have now," Rocky said tentatively.

"Mr. Rookie, you know I can't do that... Even if I want to, I can't!" grumbled Lucilla, frowning cutely at
him.

"That would be a pity. I thought something more could grow between us, Lucilla." Rocky pretended to
be regretful, but Lucilla could see the boyish smirk he was hiding.

"You are so mean. Stop teasing me! You are going to leave already, so why are you making me think
about all these things?" As Lucilla spoke, she suddenly leaned forward in Rocky's arms and continued,
"When I'm with you, I feel safe. I feel at home. I can put down any disguise and act like an ordinary
woman, but we are not destined to be together. Perhaps, you are the only man in my life who has
successfully charmed me. I'm afraid that if I let you go, I will regret it for the rest of my life..."

"I understand. Take good care of yourself, okay? This could be our last meeting, or maybe, we will
meet again someday. But I cannot stay here any longer," Rocky said frankly. After all, if he returned to
the Holy Dragon Empire and regained his status as Prince Basil, he would not be able to appear in the
Timber Deity Empire again, at least not aboveboard.

Hearing this, Lucilla's eyes turned red, and it took every ounce of her self-control to stop herself from
crying. She took a deep breath, calming herself because this was the last time they could be together.
She didn't want him to see her in such a pitiful state.

"I'll go inside first." Then, Lucilla left Rocky's arms. She looked at Rocky with a smile, her beautiful eyes
wet with unshed tears. She tried to look strong, but the sadness in her eyes could not be concealed.
She gave him a final nod and left.

"You are quite an affectionate man!" At this moment, a coquettish voice sounded. Rocky turned his
head and saw a graceful figure in the moonlight.



"Why are you here? What did the emperor say about the spiritual treasure?" Rocky asked curiously. He
had immediately recognized the figure, just by hearing her voice. It was Alyssa.

"That's none of your business. You don't need to care about the spiritual treasure. Didn't I say that I
would talk to you after the treasure hunting game was over?" Alyssa glared at Rocky.

"Oh, yes. Sorry. So many things have happened today, so I forgot." Rocky nodded immediately.

The two of them went to the pavilion by the lake where he and Woods had met before. At this moment,
the quiet lake was an enchanting sight, as it reflected the crescent moon, with barely a ripple in sight.

"When are you going back to the Holy Dragon Empire?" Alyssa asked straightforwardly even before
they had entered the pavilion.

Rocky took his time, sitting down before he answered. "If you don't have anything else for me to do, I'm
going to leave in two or three days."

"If you just go back like this, aren't you afraid of causing trouble?" Alyssa asked. Her voice sounded
worried, while her eyes were narrowed suspiciously.

"What kind of trouble? If I go back, everyone will be happy, right?" Rocky said with a faint smile. Of
course, he also knew that it was not as simple as he had said. However, he didn't want Alyssa to know
too much about him, especially the things related to Alston.

"Maybe it's true for most people, but for Alston, the eldest prince of the Holy Dragon Empire, it's hard to
say, isn't it?" Alyssa asked shrewdly, her dark eyes boring into his very soul.

The casual name-drop immediately alerted Rocky that she knew more than she was letting on. Maybe
she had known from the start, or perhaps she had found out more along the way.



"Did Prince Woods tell you something?" Rocky asked after a short pause.

"I guessed it by myself. I've already found out that my brother was hiding something from me last time
when you were all attacked. And when I found out that you were the prince of the Holy Dragon Empire,
I was already suspicious. Not long ago, after I confirmed some information, I was sure that the person
who attacked you was the eldest prince of the Holy Dragon Empire. He is your brother, who is also the
successor of the next emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire, Alston. Well? Did I get it right?" With
Alyssa's intelligence, how could she not suspect that there was something strange about the attack
against Woods and Rocky? And the fake death that Rocky arranged was enough proof that there must
be something wrong.

Later on, she suspected that her brother must have been hiding something from her. When Rocky
appeared later, she felt that all of these could not be a coincidence, so she also asked Laney to gather
information secretly, especially information about him when he was still in the Crimson Dragon Group.
As a result, she learned that when Alston was in the Crimson Dragon Army, he kept raising objections
against Rocky and almost put the Crimson Dragon Army in trouble, which had nearly fulfilled the wish
of the Timber Deity Empire. Therefore, after some speculation and analysis, she was sure that the one
who attacked Rocky and her brother was the eldest prince, Alston. And it should also be Alston who
leaked Rocky's route to her to deal with Rocky. That was all part of his plan.

In her opinion, the reason why Alston tried so hard to get rid of Rocky was that he was worried that
Rocky would threaten his position as the successor, so he tried his best to deal with him.

In this case, everything made sense.

"I really can't hide anything from you, can't I?" Rocky said calmly although it seemed that Alyssa had
already put together everything.



"So, now that you are going back to the Holy Dragon Empire, your priority is taking revenge on Alston,
right?" Alyssa asked as if she had seen through Rocky's mind.
