The phrase ‘former Supreme Leader‘ left Severin even more speechless. A slight twitch of his lips


    belied his amusement. He was not much older than Candy, and yet Candy was addressing him as


    if he was some old geezer. He smiled awkwardly and said, “Train hard, Candy. Dracodeus Temple

    will be under your care now.”


    Rachel and the other former hall masters remained after the others had left. She gazed at Severin


    with anticipation and asked, “Augustfest is only a month away. When should we leave, Supreme


    Leader?”


    Severin was rendered speechless. He frowned and said, “Why are you still addressing me as ‘


    Supreme Leader?”


    “Well, we’ve gotten used to calling you that. It won’t be easy to shake off this habit,” Rachel began


    with a meek smile.


    Larry smiled wryly and added, “Rachel’s right. We’ve always referred to you as ‘Supreme Leader‘,


    so it feels kinda weird not to call you that anymore. Your attainment is higher than ours anyway,


    so perhaps we should address you just as Mister Severin?”


    Severin cleared his throat helplessly. “That doesn’t sit well with me either. It makes me feel


    distant from all of you.”


    Mick chimed in, “Since you’re not keen on that and you’re no longer the supreme leader, I suppose


    we could just call you ‘boss‘.*


    Severin found himself at a loss for words when he heard someone older than him calling him ‘boss


    “We’ll call you ‘boss‘ then!” Larryughed and extended his hand to Severin,


    “Yes, that’s the perfect way of addressing our leader! No matter where you go, you’ll always be our


    boss!” Luke nodded in agreement.


    Severin contemted for a moment and then announced, “Fine. Anyway, there’s still a month left until


    August the fifteenth. Since none of you have been particrly busy recently, I will provide


    each of you with a pill. Focus on enhancing your attainment and achieving stability. We’ll be leaving in


    twenty days. We’ll probably take around four or five days to reach our destination if we


    move as quickly as we can. That would allow us to arrive a few days earlier.”


    Following his remark, he waved his hand and produced twelve pills. He levitated each pill in front of


    each of them ording to their respective attainment levels.


    “Your spiritual power is astounding, boss! These pills seemed to know which person it was meant for,”


    Larry praised Severin while epting the pill.


    “Of course. He lives up to his reputation as a fourth–grade low–level alchemist! I doubt the Skyblue


    Sect has anyone quite as formidable as he is,” Bowen quipped with a smile.


    Yidel expressed his gratitude after taking the pill and said, “Thank you, Supre- I mean, boss.”
