Chapter 237 I Will Return Soon

I looked at the trio, observing both Emma and I, before I asked them,"do you have any more questions?"

Their faces said that they had a lot of questions, but before they could ask any of them, I stood up and stretched a little before speaking,"I will answer all the questions later this evening. Linda, Reeve, both of you are coming with me and Irene keep training harder. I have provided you with a study schedule and also… take these." I took out a few mental enhancement lotions and gave her as I continued,

"Apply this to your body and during the nights of the full moon, try to train as much as you can. As for the other days, train normally, as I told you to follow."

Irene nods at me before focusing on the lotions I just gave her. As for Reeve and Linda, they kept pondering a little over something before Reeve stood up, spoke,"I will be meeting you in the evening then," and left from there.

As for Linda,"why am I involved in all this? What does it have to do with me?" she asked with a really, really confused expression before I spoke.

"Well. I have something which I would like to ask you about later on. Honestly, it is a hunch, but well… We both will get to know that when time comes… For now, you can say that I am taking you there to confirm something."

It was vague and it probably might have made her more confused than before, but I assured her that her life was not in any danger at all. Though, not really believing me, she signed a mana contract with me, making sure I wasn't lying.

Only after the contract was bound, she finally relaxed before both of them left from there.

I looked at Emma and said,"I guess I will be leaving from here now. I will see you in a week, then."

Emma looked at me before she moved in close and hugged me tightly before speaking,"I will be going to work now. The hospital was understaffed today because some of the staff went on a group picnic while a few others fell ill."

I narrowed my eyes at her for a few moments before I said,"you should sleep."

She shook her head and spoke,"It's fine. You are doing so much for so many people so slacking off on my own work which I should be doing, doesn't seem a nice thing, does it?"

For the next few seconds, I contemplated whether I should force her to sleep or let her go to the hospital after healing her using my magic. Healing her would make her do all the work properly without much adverse effect on her body but…

If she does not sleep, her mental state won't exactly get the rest it requires. All the things she heard last night… She needs at least some sleep to let that all sink in.

"Well, after some consideration and thought I have decided that you won't be going to the hospital today. I will make you sleep using my charm magic and we will meet after a week from now. Take care, Emma. Cya," I spoke with a smile as her eyes began to open up wide slowly.

Then I used my charm magic to make her fall asleep before I took her to the bedroom where Clair was sleeping last night and then put a blanket on her.

Having Emma with me kind of made me glad that I met her. Maybe I wanted to tell all that had happened to me or perhaps I just wanted to have someone who could understand me even if just a little… but I guess I am glad that I did what I did…

And with this, my work was done here.

'Now, to meet them,' I thought as I moved towards the place where I called Willam… as well as Lucas.

I moved out of my villa, took a car to the place where I called both of them, and within 30 minutes, reached there. It was a fancy but empty restaurant run by Laurentz themselves.

You can call it a Laurentz's meeting place, as most of their meetings happen here in this place.

Reaching the restaurant, I opened the entrance door and looked around to find a bunch of people sitting in the corner seat. Moving closer to them, I found another familiar face, which I was kind of expecting.

"Hey Cristine, you are here as well?" I asked as I observed Cristine before looking at Lucas, who was there. Looks like William wasn't here yet.

"How can I miss something like this? Anyway, you are quite daring… or I should say, it's how you have always been. Doing things that no one expects," Cristine speaks with her eyes concentrated on me with a smile on her face as if she was enjoying this very much.

Lucas looked at me with a glare before he said,"you better have a good reason to do this." I smiled back at him with a chuckle before the restaurant's door opened and the golden-haired, aged man walked towards all of us with a serious expression on his face.

I observed him walking towards me and then sitting against Lucas as he observed Cristine first, then looked at me.

William Laurentz looked at me and spoke with a slightly odd face,"you really do things that one can never anticipate. I thought I had started to understand you, but what you have done today makes me question what goes on inside that brain of yours."

The man I first met in the facility where I was trapped, the lapdog of Lucia and the Vampire King. Second son of King Laurentz of the Western Continent, William Laurentz, then turned to look at Lucas with a narrowed gaze as he finally spoke.

"How long has it been that we have sat together like this? Perhaps it has been a decade already, hasn't it? Lucas, my dearest son. Tell me, how are you?"
