Chapter 273: One Less Annoyance.

After waking up the next morning, Luan got out of bed right after kissing Ingrid's cheek. Going to the bathroom, he washed his face and brushed his teeth. Leaving the room, walking down the hall, he soon reached the kitchen.

"Good morning, Luan." Without even turning around, Maira knew it was him.

Luan smiled gently, approaching his mother. He hugged her from behind and kissed her cheek. "Good morning mom." He added, "It smells delicious."

"I'm making pancakes with honey." Maira turned to him and laughed, "When I talked to Lenore, she said she had never tried it."

"Oh? Are you already wanting to please your granddaughter?" Luan raised an eyebrow, then he chuckled.

"You bet." Maira smiled. "It might be weird having a granddaughter her age, but the world is a mess. Things are crazy, there are a lot of incomprehensible things, but most importantly, I feel a great affinity with her, and I already like her a lot. "

"Mm. I understand that perfectly." Luan took her hand. "Thank you."

Maira patted his shoulder with her free hand, and laughed, "Fool, no need to thank me for something like that. She's family, regardless of how this all happened. I love you and I'm sure I will love her."

"I love you mom." Kissing her cheek again, he let go of her hand, then started helping in the kitchen.

"I know you do, and I love you too," she laughed.

Around that time, Zeus chose to make his presence known by roaring loudly and wagging his tail. Maira looked at Zeus, a gentle smile curving her lips. "Wait a minute, I'll take some food for you and Hercules."

"Hercules?" Luan looked at Maira, not knowing who she was talking about.

"Oh, I'm referring to Pooh," she smiled. "He grew up and became very strong. Calling him Pooh still is kind of ridiculous.I think he deserved a better name. That was the name Cristina chose, and Pooh, now Hercules, likes it a lot."

"I see." Luan had nothing against it. He approached Zeus and rubbed his beautiful black fur. The feeling was soft and pleasant to the touch. Because he had so much Qi in his body, Zeus felt so good. It was like he was getting a heavenly massage. He even purred in pleasant sounds like a small feline.

After finishing helping, Luan started to leave. "I'll be right back. I need to see something."

"Okay." Maira didn't need to know what he would do. If need be, she knew what he would say. After leaving the mansion, Luan started floating with clouds at his feet. In the air, his extra sensory perception expanded.

'I've tried so many with Fourth Order power...' The speed of some races to fortify themselves was greater than humans. It gave off a little sense of crisis, but not enough to keep him from moving against them. Soon his attention was taken elsewhere. At that moment the California portal had opened.

'Witch Isabela has returned...' In the next instant, Luan practically teleported.

Luan traveled rivers and lands at an amazing speed. Waiting for Isabela to get away from people, it didn't take long for her to arrive in a more deserted place. Before she even noticed anything different, Luan appeared in front of Isabela, and with a hand on her head, he made her pass out.

'Let's see…' Luan's mind started to investigate Isabela's memories; every last memory she had while in the tower was seen by him.

'That...' The instant he saw that she was about to be possessed, he began to lament thinking that he would have to kill this girl if necessary, however, soon he saw a young man appear and save the Witch Isabela. And then he heard the following words: "Cursed Leviathan! Damn Emperor of W-"

"Leviathan? And... The White Emperor?" Luan muttered. He was already suspicious before, but after this, he was pretty sure.

'Leviathan, what have you done?' Leviathan, which now no longer had a fully formed consciousness, was in an embryo state so to speak. It landed on Luan's hand gently, without exerting much force. Placing Isabela leaning against the nearest wall, Luan flew away unnoticed.

Seconds later, Isabela woke up confused. She didn't remember what had happened; she only knew that she felt dizzy right after she passed out, but why was she so naturally resting by the wall? Shaking her head, she stopped thinking about it since she still wanted to go home.

Luan returned to Brazil. By the time he arrived, everyone was already waiting for him.

"Luan, is everything okay?" Ingrid asked. She found the way he was behaving strange. His silence aroused curiosity in everyone around the table.

"Mm…" Luan looks at her. Sighing, he smiled a little. "I told you about the Witch Isabela who killed me, yes? She... She was killed."

"Dead? How, how did she die?" Lenore rose in surprise. She had already heard from her mother that Witch Isabela was as strong as she was, and she hated to admit it, but she was still a little weaker than Isabela.

"The body she owned was reset to planet Earth, so she went back to the 45th floor where her place of origin was. She was a parasite just like I imagined. The moment she tried to possess the Witch Isabela's body again, someone appeared," Luan began to explain, "He is also from Earth. By coincidence he found Witch Isabela at the time she was about to be possessed. Of course, I also intervened a little. I had put a seal on her body, making her body 'closed'."

"Is that why there was time for someone to save her?" Lenore guessed.

"Yes, but I don't think it's just that." Luan smiled. "You see, before, humans weren't so strong, as there was a lack of resources and the Earth's Qi was scarce, but with my help, some humans managed to strengthen themselves, and the man who helped her was the man who took second place in the tournament of the game I created. Thanks to that, he was strong enough to go to the 45th floor."

"So…" Catharina said, "Indirectly, this person helped you-  I mean, us."

"Yes, but not completely," Luan said, "The one he really saved was the Witch Isabela. I would have killed her if she had been possessed again."

"But I don't think you would want to kill an innocent person," Cristina said.

"No, but if I have to, I would," Luan said with a touch of coldness in his voice.

Everyone understood very well. As much as Luan could help other people, his priority had always been him and his family.

"Mom will be happy to hear this." Lenore drank some coffee, then her lips curled into a perfect arc. "She said many times how she hated the Witch Isabela."

"Changing the subject," Luan looked at Maira, "Mom, how is the company?"

"It's okay, son." She smiled, "The Online Survival game alone has brought a lot of credibility to the Dimas brand. The amount of investors who want to invest in the company can make twenty turns around the island. Many projects and proposals are being made. In fact, your grandfather is now President and many countries have made alliances with Brazil."

"I was going to ask about that next," Luan chuckled, "Grandpa is a wise person. I have some things to help the country get stronger and also help the allied countries. I'll talk to him later."

"I would like to meet him," Lenore said suddenly in her indifferent voice.

"Okay. You can come along." Luan looked at her.

"Mm." She nodded and continued to eat.
