Chapter 144: Dragons > Humans

After cleaning up Sienna, Ryan found an unoccupied bedroom and activated a portal into his palace.

He ordered two guards to watch the room outside the portal and then made his way toward the training tower, not for work, but to check on the girl's progress.

As he got close, however, he saw Timmy and switched his path.

"Timmy, how goes your training?" Ryan asked, seeing the slave boy he saved.

"Master Emerald!" Timmy responded as he halted his sword midswing to turn and bow in Ryan's direction. "My training is going well, Master. Teacher Priya has been doing a splendid job."

Ryan had instructed Priya to give the boy some lessons since Ryan now knew that everyone could become cultivators. Timmy's skill that allowed Ryan to resurrect him would make him a key asset in the future.

"The boys are doing good, my Lord," Priya said. "He's a natural."

"Is that so," Ryan said, arching an eyebrow.
