Life After Prison

Chapter 1666
goes without saying that you’re a very integral part of the sect!” Wohlricht said before clarifying, “While it’s true that we are a
middle–class first–tier sect, the gap between us and the upper–class first–tier sects is so huge that it becomes extremely
challenging to bridge that gap. The number of royal saints in our sert is far less than the other sects, and let’s not even get
started on the attainment level of our royal saints. We don’t have enough level seven or level eight royal saints to compare
ourselves to them. This difference exists because their sect has a fourth–grade medium–rank alchemist. The strongest of the
upper–class first–tier sects, the Horizon Sect, even has a fourth–grade high–rank alchemist.”
Wahlricht then took a breather before adding, “Middle–class first–tier sects like us lack even a fourth–grade medium–rank
alchemist. Most of them only have fourth–grade low–rank alchemists, and even that bodes well for their sect.”
“I never knew that the gap between a middle–class first–tier sect and an upper–class first–tier sect is so huge. I thought the
difference was minor.” Severin finally understood why Wubiricht thought twice about letting him enter the Paradise Secret Realm
after learning about his true alchemical prowess. With a smile, Severin reassured Wahlricht, “Don’t worry, I’ll be careful, and I
won’t let you down.”
Wuhlricht nodded. “Let’s continue then.”
Sofia and Diane swiftly picked their weapon of choice. Due to the elder’s previous objection when Sheila chose a seventh- grade
weapon, Sofia and Diane chose weapons that were one grade lower. Nevertheless, their sixth–grade weapons were still very
remarkable.
Selene then asked, “What about me? Is my attainment level too low for me to choose a high–level weapon?”
Wuhiricht smiled and offered, “Allow me to select a first–grade spiritual weapon for you, Selene. I have here a short sword that
pairs excellently with your current level of attainment. It’s not overly heavy, and you’ll find it very comfortable to wield.”
Selene’s eyes sparkled with excitement as she thanked him. “Thank you, sir.”
Wuhlricht promptly picked out a short sword for Selene. The group then proceeded to move on to the third floor to choose a
combat technique.
Once they had all made their choices, Wuhlricht excused himself while Severin and his family made their way back to their
residence. Upon their return, they were surprised to see several disciples kneeling on the ground with thorny vines wrapped

around their torsos
Severin looked at the people and asked puzzlingly, “My seniors! What is going on here?” He recognized those individuals as
members of the patrol team who had intercepted them when they arrived at the sect yesterday. They seemed to have come over
to apologize after learning of Severin’s true status, fearing that Severin might not take too kindly to them in the future.
“We apologize for our mistakes, Elder Severin! Please don’t poke fun at us! We do not deserve to be addressed as ‘senior‘ by
you. Rather, we should be referring to you as “elder‘ or ‘senior‘ instead, Rano said with a woeful expression. He had been under
the mistaken impression that Severin held a grudge against them for their previous behavior and was deliberately calling them
‘seniors‘ to rub it in.
