Chapter 97: This Girl is My Daughter!

Fredrinn brought Avariel with him to watch the final round of the competition.

"My lord, that girl is…" Olivia stared at the little girl in surprise. Alice was also shocked, while Freya didn't show any reaction.

"This is Avariel. She is my daughter." Fredrinn smiled.

"What?!"

"You'll get to know more about her soon. For now, let's head to the arena." Fredrinn wanted to reveal his daughter to the people. He knew that he would face some backlash because of this, but he was prepared to confront them.

On their way out of the mansion, they encountered Margaret and Roland. The couple were excited to see Avariel, their granddaughter. Margaret even took the little girl from Fredrinn.

"Why does my granddaughter look hungry?" Margaret stared at Fredrinn suspiciously when she saw Avariel sucking her cute little thumb.

Fredrinn smiled helplessly. "She already ate her breakfast. I even prepared a few bottles of milk for her in case she is hungry."

"Good! At least you're thoughtful." Margaret snorted.

'Aiya. I'm no longer my mother's favorite child…' He shook his head with a wry smile.

When they arrived at the coliseum, everyone curiously stared at the little girl in Margaret's arms.

"Whose child is that?"

"Is she Madam Margaret's second child?"

"What a love little girl!"

Everyone had different reactions.

"Eh? Roland, is she your child?" Ludwig's eyes widened.

Roland didn't know what to say so he made eye contact with Fredrinn.

Fredrinn knew that it was time.

He took Avariel from Margaret and stood at the edge of the VIP's spectator section. He scanned the crowd with his gaze and proudly revealed the little girl in his arms. "Everyone, I have an important announcement to make before we start with the final round of the competition."

His words garnered everyone's attention. They were curious about what he was about to say.

"This girl is my daughter. Her name is Avariel Firecrown. She is a half-human half-sky race." His words were like a bomb that exploded in everyone's mind.

Fredrinn having a child was already shocking, but the most shocking thing was the child's bloodline. She actually had the blood of a sky race running through her veins!

Fredrinn had his reasons for revealing Avariel's bloodline this early on. It was so that no one would find it questionable when her wings developed. He didn't want to go through the trouble of explaining it so he might as well expose it now.

'I just hope that the sky race won't do something to her once they hear about this. If they lay a finger on her, I will…' His eyes flashed with killing intent that unconsciously leaked out.

Everyone at the scene felt this palpitating sensation. They guessed that it was a warning from Fredrinn. Even the Nascent Soul martial practitioners were afraid when they sensed his aura. Only the experts like the city lord remained calm under this overwhelming pressure.

"Congratulations, Sir Fredrinn! May the young miss have a healthy life!"

"Congratulations, Sir Fredrinn!"

Fredrinn smiled at the crowd and thanked them before he went back to his seat.

"Is she really your child?" Aubrey asked while looking at the little girl with a complicated look on her face.

Fredrinn nodded while gently stroking Avariel's head.

"What a cute little angel! Hello, Avariel! I'm your uncle, Lucas." Lucas wanted to touch the baby, but Fredrinn slapped his hand.

"Your hand reeks of alcohol!" Fredrinn glared at him.

"Come on, bro! Just let me hold her for a while!"

***

The sudden appearance of Fredrinn's daughter was more shocking than the ending of the competition.

Phillip ended up winning the championship after he defeated Elaiza in the final match. The third place went to Joseph, while Paul Gabriel barely made it into the top five.

After the martial arts competition ended, the guests were invited to a private banquet hosted by the Firecrown Household. No one rejected the invitation for this was the perfect chance to increase their connections with other martial households and renowned sects.

Fredrinn didn't attend the banquet since he had more important things to do.

"I now have 22950 Fate Points. That should be enough…" He muttered as he opened the Fate Shop.

He opened the servant category.

Fredrinn realized that he had almost made a fatal mistake. After defeating the Blackcrow Household, he had become overconfident. Luckily, he realized it in time or the consequences would have been disastrous.

The Great Vemune Continent was filled with hidden dangers. Even in the Star Wind Kingdom which was only a small dot in the continent, danger was everywhere.

Now that he had exposed Avariel, he had to prepare for the worst.

The current strength of the Firecrown Household might be at the top in Red Sun City, but on the grand scale of things, it was just a tiny martial family.

'In the Star Wind Kingdom, the strongest is the royal family. From what I know, the current king is an expert in the 5th Phase of the Void Tempering Realm. Other than him, there should be over twenty Void Tempering powerhouses in the Star Wind Kingdom. As long as we have someone at that level protecting the household, we should be able to quietly grow our strength.

We do have one, but his case is somewhat special…' Fredrinn thought about the eccentric librarian whose identity was still a mystery to him.

(Author Note: Void Tempering realm has 6 levels and they will be classified as phases. For example, Void Tempering 1st Phase, etc.)

'The only option left is to find a Void Tempering martial practitioner in the Fate Shop.'

Fredrinn filtered the selection and removed those below the Void Tempering realm. A moment later, the screen refreshed and displayed the profiles of a few individuals.
