Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian)

Chapter 589

A grandmaster was not necessarily a viscount, but a viscount was always a grandmaster.

Each viscount was formidable, holding a powerful position and commanding respect. They were rewarded with lands, including at least three small towns, and received a salary of 1000 gold coins. They were regarded as local rulers.

Next to Irvin walked a woman wearing a veil. She walked gracefully and had a striking figure with large, dark eyes. Although her face was hidden, she did not seem very old.

"Who is the woman next to Mr. Legrand?" Sebastian asked curiously.

Kyle rolled his eyes and said, "Don't you know anything? she was the daughter of the Netherworld Sect's leader, Kaitlyn Gardner. Everyone says she's even more beautiful than Heather.

"But she always wears a veil, so very few have seen her face. She's also a prodigy and the youngest viscount in the area. She's not even 18 this year. I wondered which lucky man would get to marry her. He would probably wake up smiling in his dreams."

Sebastian wasn't impressed by Kyle's infatuation. Kyle hadn't even seen what Kaitlyn looked like and was already so eager.

Sebastian wasn't interested in either Kaitlyn or Heather. After all, he believed that Fressia was incomparable to them.

"Greetings, Ms. Gardner and Mr. Legrand."

Everyone greeted them, and even Heather emerged from the carriage.

As expected, Heather was very beautiful and elegant. Dressed in luxurious silk, she stood out and was the center of attention.

Irvin said loudly, "First, on behalf of the Netherworld Sect, I'm here for our recruitment assessment. This time, Ms. Gardner and I will be overseeing it. The rules are the same as before.

"Anyone under 30 can participate. Each person will receive a number plate. Then, you will go to Misty Forest, which is 30 miles away, for the assessment.

"Once the assessment starts, you must snatch other people's number plates. Each plate is worth one point. You need 60 points to pass, 100 points to be considered excellent, and over 200 points guarantee admission.

"During the assessment, you can only take number plates from others. Killing is not allowed. Anyone who violates the rules will be disqualified. Is that clear?"

"Yes!" Everyone answered in unison.

Then, they lined up to receive their number plates. When Sebastian received him, he noticed it was a simple metal plate with a faint, unique energy fluctuation, likely for anti-counterfeiting.

After getting their number plates, the group followed Irvin and Kaitlyn to the Misty Forest. The forest was huge, with a radius of dozens of miles. It was always shrouded in fog all year round, with low visibility.

As the participants entered the forest, those who were weak or from smaller groups quickly rushed into it to avoid being robbed immediately. Sebastian was no exception, though Kyle urged him to run.

Just ten seconds after entering the forest, a red fireball shot into the sky, signaling the start of the assessment. "Hand over your number plates!"

Not far into their run, a large group of people surrounded them-at least a dozen.

Kyle and the others were alarmed.

The leader of the group, a tall man, sneered. "Don't even think about resisting. While we can't kill you, we can still cripple you."
