Chapter 3688 I Might Have Thought Too Much
Although Floyd might still lag behind Xylas in terms of combat prowess, Floyd already had
what it took to escape unscathed. That was enough for Floyd to feel confident and proud.
He had improved by leaps and bounds over a short period, and Floyd felt no one in the
entire base was his match now. His improvement earned him Gloria’s acknowledgment,
which made Floyd even more optimistic and proud.
“Gloria, thank you for putting aside time to train me,” Floyd said gratefully. “Don’t mention
it. You’re talented, to begin with, or else you wouldn’t be able to reach this level with just
me teaching you,” Gloria replied, waving her hand.
Floyd’s face lit up when he found out that Gloria thought highly of him.
“By the way, Floyd, you should return to the base soon. Your master and the others might
worry about you. I’ll be able to keep tabs on any development in the Ecclesiastic Order
over here. I’ll immediately inform you about their plans if there’s anything,” Gloria added.
Touched, Floyd teared up upon hearing that, yet he suddenly felt bitter and spiteful as he

More precisely, he felt a deep sense of hostility toward Levi.
“Floyd, don’t blame Master. He must’ve attacked me because he believed someone’s lies,”
Gloria commented knowingly.
Her words drove the wedge deeper between Floyd and Levi.
As she expected, Floyd’s face gloomed when he heard her.
Everyone’s making things hard for her, yet Gloria’s still so understanding. Levi, you’d
better not cross the line!
With that in mind, Floyd said goodbye to Gloria and left for the base.
When he saw that everyone at the base appeared anxious and frightened, he felt even
more confident in himself.
In fact, the nervousness and stress he felt earlier completely dissipated when he saw how
fearful they were.
“I’ll be more influential here now that I’ve become powerful.”
Yet, little did Floyd know, the more excited he got, the deeper he spiraled into Gloria’s
trap.
It so happened that Levi was inspecting the base’s security when he saw Floyd walking
toward him.
Levi wanted to greet him, but Floyd was mumbling to himself as he walked past Levi as if
he did not see the latter at all.
“What’s wrong with Floyd?”
Levi wanted to say more but choked back his words instead. He was perplexed.
Floyd has always shown great respect to me. He’d never walk away without greeting me.
Don’t tell me he’s been training too much because he’s stressed out about the war. Well,
that might be it. He trains like crazy, after all. Given how tense the situation is, he’s
probably skipping meals just to practice. That must be it.
Levi felt at ease at the thought.
When he turned back, he saw Floyd walking away, still muttering.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSince Levi had been using the super-spiritual ley line to metamorphose, his hearing had
become a lot keener, and he could hear what Floyd was saying to himself.
“What’s so scary about the tripartite alliance? I’m a lot more powerful now. It won’t be a
problem for me to take down even the Paladins. I’ll show Master what I’m capable of! After
this war, I’ll also…”
Probably because Floyd did not continue his sentence, his voice trailed away, and Levi
could not hear anything else. Yet from what he learned, Levi could still figure out what was
on Floyd’s mind.
He must be disgruntled because I’ve been hiding my whereabouts from him. It’s only
natural that he reacts this way. After all, Floyd’s a sensitive person.
Despite Levi trying to justify what he heard, he still sensed there was something wrong
with Floyd, though he could not put a finger on what it was exactly.
“I must be thinking too much.”
Levi shook off that thought and decided to have a heart-to-heart talk with Floyd after the
war.
Since Floyd was an important disciple to him, Levi did not want Floyd to resent him.q
