The Medallion Chapter 1828 He Has Come Back

Since the wedding ceremony was now completed, the alliance between the Ghost Fief and the Flower
Fief had finally become official. Because of this, most fiefs naturally saw them as a huge threat.

Two days after the wedding, the godly voice descended on the nine fiefs, announcing the result of the
Spiritual Emperor Contest held in the human race. Since no Godly Genius was able to win the first
place, no one obtained a reward this time.

Actually, Rocky was supposed to be rewarded, since he won the championship using his identity as
Basil. But of course, even Mikayla could not afford to expose his human identity, so she also pretended
not to know about it.

At the same time, a new training quest was announced. But upon hearing it, all of the Godly Geniuses
were bewildered by its content. This time, the Godly Geniuses were asked to choose a side in the
upcoming war and help them win. Of course, there were only two choices; it was either the Shura Race
or the joint forces of the human race and the spiritual race.

Obviously, this was a baffling quest, and no one understood the meaning behind it—except Rocky. The
moment he heard it, he instantly knew that this quest was specifically designed for him.

In this war, the joint forces of the human race and the spiritual race could not lose. Losing the battle
meant that the Shura Race would gain the power to rule the entire continent, which would further push
the Holy-Evil World to its destruction. Of course, this was not something the gods wanted. If this
happened, even they would not be able to do anything to save their world.

On the other hand, for other Godly Geniuses, this quest seemed so trivial. After all, as members of the
Shura Race, why would they even think of siding with their enemies? In their opinion, as long as they
made sufficient achievements in assisting the Shura Race to win the war, they would definitely
accomplish the task.



Aside from Valeria, no one among the other Godly Geniuses knew that Rocky was actually a human.
Hence, there was no reason for them to doubt the purpose of the quest.

After the next quest was issued, the fiefs also began to make their plans. Some wasted no time and
geared up for battle, but others chose to contemplate some more. In particular, the Ghost Fief and the
Flower Fief could not just make a rash move. Since they were supporting Princess Layla, who was
originally opposed to the war, they might not actually participate in this quest.

Fortunately for Rocky, this gave him enough time to carry out his plans.

In order to move freely and deceive others, on the second day after their wedding, Rocky and Valeria
announced that they were going to cultivate in seclusion.

The dual cultivation technique of the Flower Fief was known to be unique in the Shura Race. This way,
even if they went away, it would not arouse suspicion from others.

At this moment, Rocky was in the Ghost Palace, preparing everything he needed before he set out for
the human race.

"Old man, I will go back to the human race with Eunice tomorrow. It might take a while before I'm back,"
Rocky informed as soon as he finished his preparations.

"I see. I'll also get ready. I'll come with you two," Esteban said in a very casual way.

Of course, when Rocky heard his response, he was in a daze. He was so surprised, wondering what
Esteban was talking about.

"Why the hell are you so surprised? I am also a human. Why can't I go back to my own people?"
Esteban raised his voice and glared at Rocky.



"Well, yes. Of course, you can. But what are you going to do there?" Rocky asked in confusion.
Although he knew from the start that Esteban was also a human, he did not know much about his
background.

"You guys are going back to the Di Clan first, right? I will accompany you," Esteban answered after
hesitating for a while.

"Can you already tell me what your relationship with the Di Clan is?" When he first took Eunice here
with him, Esteban immediately showed a rare affection to her upon knowing that she was from the Di
Clan. From then on, Rocky surmised that Esteban had a close relationship with the Di Clan. Now that
the old man suddenly said that he wanted to go back with them, Rocky obviously became even more
curious.

"Why are you so impatient? You will know once we get back!" Esteban did not say anything more and
proceeded to prepare his things.

Rocky could just shrug his shoulders, thinking that Esteban was right.

The next day, Rocky, Eunice, and Esteban all left the Ghost Palace in disguise.

Meanwhile, the army of the Shura Race was already summoned by Prince Zain, and he was about to
send out a spearhead of fifty thousand soldiers. They were to go to the border of the human race to
begin the war against them.

Moreover, among the spearhead, two Godly Geniuses were assigned to act as generals. One of them
was Israel.

After a few days of traveling, a beast descended from the sky and swiftly landed into the yard of the Di
Clan.



Then, three figures came down from the back of the beast, which were actually Rocky, Esteban, and
Eunice.

Colton, who had just come back from the spiritual race, welcomed the three as soon as he heard that
they would return. However, it seemed that he was just expecting to see Rocky and Eunice.

"Uncle? Uncle Esteban! You came back!" Colton exclaimed in surprise.

"Colton? Is that you? You are such a grown man now. You were just a teenager when I left," Esteban
replied, feeling somewhat nostalgic.

When Rocky and Eunice heard their conversation, they could just silently look at each other in shock.
Never did they expect that Esteban would be Colton's uncle, meaning that Esteban was actually the
brother of the former chief.

"Yes! You were gone for so long. We even thought that you might be already dead!" Colton said
excitedly. He was still overcome by emotion upon seeing his long-lost uncle.

"I don't want to interrupt your heartfelt reunion, but what the hell is going on here?" Rocky butted in,
wanting to know every detail.

"Fine. It's actually a long story, but I guess I should start from the competition for the qualification of the
next chief held many years ago…" Just remembering the old days made Esteban heave a deep sigh.
He began recounting what happened back then when he was still in the Di Clan.

It turned out that in order to choose the next chief, Jaiden Di selected a few promising candidates from
the members of the clan. Then, he asked them to undergo various trials to determine his successor.

The former chief and Esteban were among the chosen candidates, and apparently, Esteban was the
most powerful competitor for the position. Back then, he was still very young, full of potentials, highly-



spirited, and his medical skills were unmatched. Even the former chief could not compare to him.

However, Esteban went to extremes in everything. In order to achieve his goals, he would sometimes
go for an outrageous method, just so he could prove himself. Therefore, in the final trial, he decided to
use a very risky method, costing him the chance to become the successor.

For this very reason, Esteban left the Di Clan in a fit of pique, saying that he would set out to train even
harder. In order to spite his father further, he went to the territory of the Shura Race, also intending to
make his strength surpass the limits of the human race. However, he did not expect that because of his
excessive pursuit of strength, he would spiral into madness and was eventually hunted by the members
of the Shura Race. Fortunately, Gilbert managed to save him. Since the leader of the Ghost Fief
acknowledged Esteban's unparalleled wisdom in medicine, he was assigned to become the doctor of
the fief. Then, years after, as if providence working its way, Esteban incidentally saved Rocky, who was
also closely related to the Di Clan.

Hearing the whole story, Rocky, Colton and Eunice were filled with complex emotions. They could not
help but think that they were actually bound by the threads of fate.

"By the way, I heard from Basil that my father was accidentally trapped in an unknown dimension while
exploring the Holy Heaven Palace but was successfully brought back. After that, I contemplated a lot
and deemed that it might be the right time to come back and take responsibility for my actions in the
past," Esteban declared in a low voice.

"I see. Grandfather will be very happy once he knows that you finally came back. Unfortunately, your
reunion might have to wait a little more. He actually entered the Holy Heaven Palace again not long
ago," Colton said with regret.

"What? Why would he do that?" Rocky could not help but exclaim in surprise. After all, he knew the
extreme dangers brought by exploring the place.



"He said that he wants to explore the Holy Heaven Palace as much as he could for the sake of the Di
Clan. But he also assured us that whenever the clan needs him, he will come back right away," Colton
explained.

"I see. I did not expect that I wouldn't be able to see him after all," Esteban sighed, a bit disappointed
with the news.

"Don't worry. He should come back sooner or later. I'm sure that you two will have the chance to meet,"
Colton said firmly, comforting his uncle.
