"Levelling up has never felt so better," Evan muttered under his breath as he felt the newfound power surging through his veins, filling him with an indescribable sense of strength.

"It's amazing. I can now do so much more."

He knew that with a majority of his soul pockets now unlocked, he could store more ice-type soul energy within him and directly use it to unleash devastating attacks on his enemies.

It might not mean much to a Soul Fusion Realm Cultivator, but it meant a lot to him.

After all, he could show a part of the potential of the Breath of Frost Technique in battles as he had more than several hundred units of ice-type soul energy stored in his soul pockets.

"Status screen," Evan said.

Evan stared at his status screen, and his eyes brightened up as he took in the information displayed on it.

"Wow," Evan breathed. "I've come really far in a really short time. No one would believe that I grew so strong in only a day!"

He added one skill point to the Inspection Skill.

[The inspection skill has leveled up]

[It has increased to level 1 from level 0]

[You can inspect anyone below your cultivation level with a 100% success rate!]

ραпdαn૦νel [You can inspect anyone one to ten levels above you with a 75-50% success rate!]

"Level it up again," Evan said.

[Two SPS consumed]

[The inspection skill has advanced to lv 2 from level 1]

[The skill will be 100% effective on anyone below your level and anyone one to ten levels above]

[There's a 10 to 40% chance of the skill failing to work properly if you inspect cultivators or creatures 11 to 15 levels above you!]

[It can be used to detect a person's status]

[It can be used to gain a basic description and the background of a person! The success chance depends on the difference in strength]

[Th inspection skill can not be cast more than once a day on the same person!]

The level 2 inspection skill was infinitely better than the level 1 version of it. There was just no comparison!

"I should get home before it's found out that I am missing."

He was feeling heavy, so he unequipped the magic sword and the gauntlets, and with a thought, he put them in his inventory. His action caused his strength to decrease by 12 points, his stamina to decrease by 10 points, and his agility to decrease by 2 points. Although his agility decreased by an entire 2 points, he was faster than before as he was not carrying a sword or wearing a thick and weighty gauntlet.

He then hurriedly returned to the Frost Clan estate on foot through the secret underground passageway that was connected to his chamber.

Evan meticulously tidied up his room, double-checking that everything was in its proper place before proceeding to conceal the secret mechanism behind his bed. He and his father had worked tirelessly on this contraption, and it was imperative that no one else discovered it.

Once certain that it was undetectable, Evan unlocked the door to his chambers and summoned two of his many servants to assist him in taking a bath.

His body was caked in grime, dust, and blood, leaving him feeling utterly drained and in dire need of cleansing. A refreshing bath would surely aid in alleviating his exhaustion.

The two young servants promptly moved to answer his call. One possessed a striking beauty that was difficult to ignore, while the other had a charming cuteness that was equally captivating.

Upon seeing Evan's appearance, they were taken aback.

"Did he get into a brawl with someone?" Rose said, "Why does he look so messy?"

"Shh! Don't let him hear you. Do you want to end up like Sir Havelock?" Lily reminded.

"My lips are sealed. I won't say a word." Rose said, closing shut her mouth.

They remained silent the rest of the walk towards him, knowing full well what happens to servants that attract his ire. The lesson Havelock had recently learned had sent ripples throughout the manor, making each servant discover the need to fear Evan.

They were acutely aware of the Crown Prince's status and the need to maintain proper decorum in his presence, and they acted on their teaching for the first time in years.

First, it was the right thing to do. Secondly, they didn't want to be taught a lesson like Havelock.

They escorted him to a restroom with a majestic pool. They promptly filled it with water and warmed it to the perfect temperature. They added something like a body wash to make it soapy, and they spread petals all over it.

Both servants were easy on the eyes, and it was easy to notice that they were meticulously trained and exceptional at their job.

Evan would have gladly rewarded them for their services if he were not aware of their allegiance to Havelock.

The probability of any good feelings developing between him and these servants was automatically reduced to zero when he inspected them and found out that they were Havelock's minions!

"Let's just do what I came here."

Evan began to slowly remove his blood-soaked clothes. As a prince, he was used to taking baths in the presence of others. Not to mention, he felt confident in his body. So he wasn't hesitant about stripping to his underwear in one go even though his attendants were still around him.

His chiseled and toned physique was revealed as he took off his clothes, and it immediately caught the attention of the two young and healthy maids present in the restroom.

They couldn't help but stare at him in admiration, their faces flushed with an appreciation for his rugged masculinity.

While looking at Evan, Lily leaned towards Rose and whispered into her ear, "Can you see it?"
