Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 158 Secret Identity Arouses Curiosity

Seeing that Isis persisted in asking, Marin had no choice but to tell her all the details of what hadtaken place.

"Are you kidding me?! You really mean to tell me that Rocky, a petty officer, who knows his limitedstrength, managed to distract the Dark Heaven Insect at the fifth-level of the Earthly Stage all byhimself? Is he stupid? How bird-brained! Oh my God!" After listening to the dramatic narration, anodd look crossed Isis's face. She found it difficult to comprehend Rocky's weird behavior.

"But, you still shouldn't have awarded him the first-class military merit, though he has donesomething great. After all, he is not the one who killed the Dark Heaven Insect. He survived bysuccessfully distracting the insect by chance! " Isis shifted the focus to her concern that the award toRocky might lead to a flood of first-class merit awards and would make the awards depreciate."Indeed, I made that hasty award because I thought that he would not survive. To my surprise, hecame back safe. I could not figure out how Rocky dodged the attack of the Dark Heaven Insect, andwho really killed that monster,” Marin expressed her confusion and helplessness, since she could notrevoke Rocky's award. Taking back her decision would prejudice her prestige in the army.

"Marin, according to your description, it is true that this guy is a little strange, but, he should be verysmart. Otherwise, he would have been totally obliterated by the Dark Heaven Insect.” Isis seemed togrow more interested in this Rocky. His smarts made her more curious about who he was.

"That guy is not only strange, but also extremely annoying.” Marin recounted Rocky's disrespectfulattitude at the camp, seething with anger.

"Dear sister, I've never seen you hate a man so much. You are not yourself when you mention him."Isis was surprised at Marin's intense dislike of Rocky. Isis had grown up with Marin and knew herquite well. Marin was a forthright tomboy who, while being independent, was amiable and seldomdisliked anyone with a passion. Marin acted like a flustered lady when talking about Rocky, thoughseething with anger. Her demeanor made Isis even more curious.

"I just don't like him. Besides, he seems to have a peculiar identity. So, my dear sister, could youplease help investigate how Rocky was enlisted to the northeast military camp?" Marin suddenlyrequested.

If only Rocky knew that Marin was so resolute to investigate his identity, he would have felt worriedand rather uncomfortable. After all, his identity could not be exposed easily, or it would bring greatchaos and disturbance in the Holy Dragon Empire.

"Expel him from the military camp since you dislike him. Why do you still want to make aninvestigation? That is an easy solution, right?" Marin's behavior perplexed Isis.

"I..." In fact, Marin was unable to answer Isis's question. The truth was that she was determined todiscover Rocky's secrets which he tried to conceal so well.

Well, I'l send someone to check his background right away. If he is an enlisted man, there should bea record in our headquarters!" Isis clapped her hands and soon a pretty servant girl appeared, "Goto the General Affairs Division and check the recruitment records of the northeast military camp toreplace out the native place and identity of Rocky - a spirit manipulator.”

"Yes, Ma'am." The pretty girl sped away to the Division hastily.

"Thank you, Isis.” Marin nodded.

"It is rare that you show interest in a man, Marin. I ought to do you a favor. I would like to meet thisman if possible,” Isis said meaningfully, her eyebrows raised.

"Cousin, what does your favor mean? All what I do is just driven by my suspicions on his identity. Athorough investigation will much relieve my concerns and give me peace of mind. As a commanderof the northeast military camp, it is my duty to know more about Rocky since he serves in my army,”Marin explained quickly, catching the hints that Isis was dropping.

"It means nothing special, my dear. But why do you look so nervous if you have no interest?" Marinfound no immediate answer for Isis's question.

"Isis, stop playing for fun, or I'll go back to my camp.” Marin replied with embarrassment, visiblyuncomfortable.

"Never mind, I was just kidding. How about taking a break to cultivate? We have not cultivatedtogether for a long time!" Isis dragged Marin to the jade bed.

The two women took off their garments, sat opposite each other in a cross-legged meditativeposition, and stretched their arms to keep their palms touching with each other. The chilly smogfrom the white jade bed instantly surrounded the two delicate beauties.

After a long time, Isis opened her starry eyes, "My dear cousin, your cultivation is very close to thesecond level of the Heavenly Stage. Later I will give you a medium-level Dark Heaven Egg. I hope itwill help you make a breakthrough.”

"Medium-level Dark Heaven Egg? It's too precious! I can't accept!” Marin was astonished. As aCommander of the northeast military camp, she was entitled to a primary-level Dark Heaven Eggevery three months. But, it was much less powerful than the medium-level one, which wasconsidered a rare treasure for a spirit manipulator at the Heavenly Stage. It could help them quicklyreach higher stage, and was especially helpful when a manipulator was at the very top of theircurrent stage. The benefit brought by the medium-level Dark Heaven Egg was always beyondexpectation. Receiving one as a gift was no small matter. Marin was extremely touched

"Just accept it, my dear cousin!” Isis pretended to be annoyed. Undoubtedly, the rare medium-levelEgg sent as a gift without any hesitation showed Isis's deep love for Marin, since it was also verydifficult for Isis to get another one.

At the moment of Isis's urging, the pretty girl, who was deployed by Isis to retrieve the details ofRocky from the recruitment record, came back.

"Wait a moment, Marin.” Isis swiftly covered herself with the white light robes, stepped down thejade bed barefooted and went outside to meet the girl.

"Are you sure?" Isis felt quite surprised suddenly when the pretty girl whispered close to her withthe result.

"I am certain, Ma'am. I checked the record three times," the girl replied.

"Go take a break then.” Still very bewildered, Isis waved her hand to order the pretty girl to go. Thenshe went back to the jade bed.

"Isis, what is it?" Marin asked, seeing that Isis looked quite confused.

"Marin, in the recruitment records filed in our headquarter, no details can show that the spiritmanipulator Rocky was recruited and allocated to the northeast military camp. That is, Rocky is notamong the enlisted men..." Isis answered seriously.

"Really?" Marin was stunned by the astonishing result.

"In the recruitment records for the past several months, there is only one new entry, which has beenkept in strict confidentiality. What's even more confusing is that the entry has no details, not eventhe name. If Rocky is the only spirit manipulator recruited to the northeast military camp within therecent months, obviously the entry of recruitment belongs to him." Isis had never before comeacross an entry was treated with such strict secrecy. Even her father had no right to access thedetails of that entry. How strange!

"What?! Do you mean that..." Marin became more bewildered.

"If there is no error in the recruitment record, then the fact should be that Rocky's identityinformation is deliberately concealed for some reasons. And he must have a special identity or berelated to some secrets. He is really peculiar,” Isis said, rubbing her chin with her fingers.

"So, what is his identity? Why could it be hidden? He was never an outstanding manipulator andseems not to be a vicious guy." It was unimaginable for Marin that Rocky, a spirit manipulator whowas at best at the second or third level of the Mortal Stage, had a top-secret identity.

"I don't know. I've never noticed that entry before. But, my father may know something about it. Iwill go ask him. Goodness, cousin. I've joined you in being so curious about him!" A short profoundsmile of curiosity flashed on Isis's enchanting face. Her curiosity seemed to be incurred by theunexpected mystery arising from the boring military camp.

Listening to Isis, Marin also showed curiosity and astonishment under her attractive appearance.
