Chapter 93

As early morning came, Lennox secretly slipped out to meet with Rafael. The two came to an agreement, Lennox will sponsor him financially and Rafael will have to take the alchemist exam and enter the alchemy tower.

Working as his lackey, as well as his personal alchemist. Although Lennox had a general knowledge of alchemy, it's still inferior to an expert. In the past, he didn't need to learn it, since there was nothing he couldn't do. As for now, around 97% of his powers are sealed, in addition to his human body, the necessity of an alchemist hit the roof.

Unexpectedly, Rafael promised to set off within a few days. He and his family were already preparing to head towards the dark Elve's area.

' he seems to be excited...'

With that, Lennox returned back to Bernard's mansion, hoping that Everly is still asleep. He is not fond of acting like a wife in an affair, but Everly is surely to throw a tantrum and it's quite annoying to deal with.

After arriving at the mansion. Lennox didn't shamelessly head to their room, but waited for her to find him at the main lounge on the first floor. He stood in front of a large painting, which seems to be a family portrait.

In it, a rose-haired man sat on a couch holding a newborn buddle of joy, seemingly, Everly. The man had gentle features and a warm smile, one look and you could see paternal flowing from his eyes.

' is this her so-called master? That's quite the pretty face he has '

On his right stood her second brother, Yoon. Lennox has seen him before in the tracking stone device. The same yellow-brownish eyes and dark blue hair, the only difference, he looked a bit younger. On the left stood a red-haired soft delicate boy-

' What the fuck???? Is this is the general???!!! '

Just as he had these thoughts, Lennox heard footsteps of tiny feets stomping on the ground. Needless to say, that's Everly....and she is angry.

Lennox sighed. He slowly turned around, expecting her to start crying. Lennox barely managed to see her dark expression before a "clang" sound faintly rang in the vast room, followed by a sharp pain rushing from his abdomen towards his head.

Only after his legs gave out and fell back, did Lennox feel the warm liquid streaming out of him-

' SHE STABBED ME???!!!!!!! SHE FUCKING STABBED ME?????!!!! IS THIS IS MY BLOOD??! WHY IS IT RED????????! '

Everly didn't pull her sword from Lennox's stomach, instead, she pushed it out of his back, railing him on the ground.

" WHY IS ALL OF YOU ARE SO EAGER TO LEAVE ME?!!! "

Her high tone made Lennox's ear buzz for a while. He was so shocked to pay any attention to his torn guts. A fierce light flashed in her bloodshot eyes.

" I WON'T ALLOW IT!! I WON'T ALLOW ANY OF YOU TO ABANDON ME!!!! IF I AM NOT YOUR CHOICE THEN NOBODY IS GOING TO BE!! YOU CAN'T RUN FROM ME!!! EVEN IF YOU DIE I WILL PULL YOU OUT OF THE DEAD!!!! "

Lennox's eyes shook for a second. His already pale skin paled even more, either because of blood loss or because his newly adopted granddaughter went crazy!

' holy cow!! This girl is insane!!!!! '

It was until Everly's disorderly breathing calmed a bit, did she speak again. Her eyes streamed with tears like rivers, soaking her cheeks in no time. Her aggressive appearance can no longer be seen, as if it never existed, now she resembled a puppy in distress.

" I don't want to be alone. Don't abandon me....*hic, I will be good, I won't cause trouble so please....please don't leave me "

Her voice trembled as it slowly turned to whispers. Lennox's mind couldn't catch up with these events. For the first time in both of his glorious lives, he was humiliated and severely injured by none other than his ungrateful granddaughter! The annoying ball of fluff that always roamed around him stupidly, turned out to be a hypocritical psychopath!! And most shocking of all, a Love that is adorned by God and cherished by heavens is facing a lack of love???!!!

' WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON???? '

Although he is already dead, this human body is not! If he keeps bleeding this way, thing won't be good. Lennox inwardly sighed, he raised his head to look at the miserable Everly.

" well, I wasn't planning on ditching you here, I don't really understand what goes and come in that little head of yours "

Everly looked at his face. Her tears kept pouring but she still answered while pouting.

" Everly's brain juice is shady, it's full of water. I am not really smart so if I made a mistake please tell me I will fix it, otherwise, I wouldn't know why Lennox is angry. I will do anything just don't leave me "

"...."

' are you doing this so I would forgive you for stabbing me? Well, guess what bitch, you succeeded.... '

What can he do when she's acting all pitiful like this? Forget it, at least he is not dead...well, he is actually.

" calm down, you did nothing wrong, it was a short come from my side. How about you pull this sword first before I die from blood loss? "

Everly finally noticed the pool of blood under them. She ruthlessly pulled out her sword, causing Lennox to jerk his head in pain. His vision turned from white to black to white again, his entire body felt numb.

With light moves, Everly stood, wiped off her tears and Lennox's blood, then quickly ran towards the door saying:" I will go call gramps to heal you, wait here don't go anywhere! "

"...."

' by all means, do you really think I will go anywhere? Let alone standing, I can't even move a finger- '

Everly's departing back hasn't yet disappeared before Lennox's sight turned blurry. He felt his head weighing a ton, as darkness gradually invaded his vision.

He passed out.
