Chapter 1730
The First Heir
Philip looked startled. The meaning behind Fennelâs words was obvious. This was similar to a
herdsman who should just let the livestock graze. Why tell the sheep that they could still graze outside
of this area and there were in fact many other places that they could graze?
âIn that case, whatâs the world like in the one ten-thousandth?â Philip continued asking.
Fennel thought about it and decided to tell Philip in the easiest way to understand. He took out a
dagger from his pocket and handed it to Philip while saying, âUse the dagger and slowly approach the
middle of your eyebrows with it.â
Philip took the dagger, looked at it glittering in his hand, and did as he was told.
In that instant, Philip suddenly felt a strange sensation in the middle of his eyebrows. It was a tingling
sensation of oppression, stinging as though electricity was passing through.
Fennel saw the change in Philipâs expression. He took a sip of liquor and said, âThis is the human
bodyâs self-protection. You can also understand it as a kind of energy, an aura.â
âEveryone has such potential. It only depends on whether you can develop this potential yourself. Such
people are exactly the talents sought after by the Nonagon,â Fennel said lightly.
Philip put the dagger down and that discomfort in the middle of his brows slowly disappeared.
âIs this related to the vigor you spoke to Venom about?â
Fennel nodded and said, âThis is just a term for it. Like I just said, whatâs in the glass is called liquor.
Vigor, or aura, is the disciplesâ term for this force. The existence of the Nonagon is to select geniuses in
the country who can develop vigor or aura. After going through layers of selection and sending them
inside the door, theyâll be given more professional lectures and training to manipulate their vigor to a
height that ordinary people canât understand.â
Philip was silent. His face was gloomy as he finished the liquor in his glass in one gulp.
What Fennel said was too astounding. He naturally knew the many mysteries of the human body.
The Nonagon was an existence that developed the potential of the human body?
âIsnât this the movie âLucyâ turned into reality?â Philip asked.
Fennel smiled lightly and said, âLucy exists.â
What?
Philip was dumbfounded!
Someone like Lucy actually existed?
âYou can think of me as someone like Lucy, but Iâm somewhat different from whatâs shown in the movie.
Everyone who enters behind the door has their own peculiarities. Itâs a different world that subverts
your worldview and also a place with infinite unknowns.â
There, you can never know just how many secrets there are in the world,â Fennel said, his eyes looking
vague as though he was thinking of a lot of past events.
Philip kept his mouth shut, his heart already in turmoil. It turned out that what he had seen was not the
true side of this world.
âBetween you and Reed Williams, whoâs more powerful?â Philip suddenly asked, his gaze burning.
