Chapter 73 Downfall

Two days after Galen visited and did those pictures transferring stuffs, the Ladies of the ling clan hasn't been the same.

The shame started by first letting them lost the guardians of a king.

Oh, just one king, it was a matter that could be sighed over and then as they were still in the moment of sighing over it the next mischief befall them in the form of another guardians breaking the contract with them.

Oh, simple another one they could sigh twice over this and it will be over.

It happen for the third time, the fourth and then the fifth, they wanted to Sigh but their mouth refused to do so.

Then came another level of shame, when the kings that has terminated the contract with them began signing the same contract with the people of the Gregor family.

They even apologized to him for the harm they have caused his family, the Injustice and the misuse of their powers against them.

They went as far to giving financial gifts and materials gifts such as weapons and security formations.

This was something they didn't think of doing during the time the contract with the ling clan lasted.

Well, it was expected because they won't dare to make their kingdoms be summoned in the court.

Courts in this empire are graded into two categories, the kingdom court and the empire court.

If one was summoned to the kingdom court, they might be able to bribe their way out with the use of money and their authority as kings of the Kingdom.

Also, they can even use their authority and close the case without having to make a presence.

But the empire court was like the heavens, the peak of courts.

Lawyers are as rare as treasures in this world, to find one was difficult not to talk of the amount they are expected to pay for the service of the lawyers.

It might cost up to half a million to see one, it might even cost more than that.

This compared to gift was something too vast.

The Gregor family started gaining reputation while the reputation of the Ling clan kept falling.

..

After reuniting with his family, Liam enjoyed a moment of strong and blissful joy especially from the sister he never had, Julian.

'ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ No(ve) l Bi n',

She was an angel, she was very kind and was easy to forgive and forget, she was just five though but she was already showing that her feature will be great and without too much flaws.

He practiced sword fighting with Xavier, this time he was trained in advanced sword techniques that he didn't even imagine he will ever be able to learn and such age.

He trained determinedly, with a strong heart and a will to learn.

In just two days of practice he was able to comprehend a few of the stance and moves of the corporate sword technique that he was learning.

This was quite slower than it should have, but it was great because he didn't depend on the system and trained with his own mind and body.

Everything he memorized was stored in his brain like normal people do as well as the techniques playing in his head as expected from normal humans.

At the moment, he was in his personal room in a cultivation state, the energy covering his body was dense and there was a primeval stone in his grasp which he was able to obtain from Bradley.

He did not know if Bradley was a cultivator with a demon core like him and he hasn't even bothered to ask but something inside of him tells him that he is a cultivator with a demon core, from the way he was always filled with primeval stones.

Till this day, he haven't felt a single bit of cultivation from the dude but he was certain that he was a really powerful dude hiding his true strength.

With the primeval stone, he was able to absorb the energy in it and now it was sending out wisps of demonic energy into his body.

p Knock knock.

He had two knocks on the the door at the same thing, his eyes opened, a cold glint dimmed as he placed the primeval stone inside his inventory and walked towards the door to open it for the visitors who have came to his room at this early hours of the cool evening, they were no other than Cornelia and Julian.

The only two young female that he has a connection with at the moment, one was his first, best and only friend, the other was his little sister, cute and super friendly to a fault.

Seeing the two of them, he scratched his head and walked them until his room.

His room was big and was painted with shiny white emulsion, it was sparkling as a florescent crystal lighting up the room, giving out a unique florescence glow.

Although it was big, the things inside weren't that much and thus the room was a little too spacious.

There was only a wardrobe, a futon, a bed and other basic furnitures found in both the houses of the rich and poor.

"Big brother, why do your love being inside your room, big sister said you are always like that, is it because you are bored?"

After inviting them inside he sat on the futon while he let the two sit on the bed, Julian who has been with Cornelia; those two bonded too quickly.

Julian asked with a cheerful cheeky smile on her face, Liam was kind of confused with her question.

Although he knew that it wasn't a lie, he was kind of antisocial and preferred the time spent Increasing his strength more than anything else so he was more of an indoor type big brother which contrasted his little sister who was more of the outdoor type.

He scratched his head and answered with a smile.

'',

"You can say I'm antisocial, sorry about that. you won't like a weak big brother over a social big brother, would you?"

Julian pondered before giving her sincere answer.

"A strong big brother is awesome, a social big brother is awesome but a big brother with both of them is super awesome."

Liam smiled, too bad he wouldn't want to be super awesome.

At least for now, he will go with the awesome big brother title, the super awesome was more of a big mountain that will take a lot of time to climb.

For now Xavier will be the super awesome big brother.

He patted her head lovingly and gave her a peck in the middle of her fore head.

"Julian, big brother Xavier will always be the super awesome big brother while I'll be the awesome one, if you combined those two, that you means you have Greatly awesome big brothers, Right, don't you like that?"

"Umm, greatly is good" She said.

Cornelia watched as Liam converse with his little sister, she was jealous.

She was the daughter of a mighty powerhouse and her big brothers are also formidable powerhouses as well but they aren't at home all the time, it wouldn't be an exaggeration if he she say she can't recall the face of three big brothers.

Julian spent some more time with him, playing and discussing, she was later called by emerald who wanted to take her out alongside Xavier, she asked Liam to come with them but he refused politely.

This made Emerald to be unhappy feeling that he wasn't the cute loving son to her anymore because she has lived without him for a long time.

Although Julian pouted at his reply, she was fast to tell her mom what kind of big brother Liam was and she quickly cheered up.

After they left, Liam was alone with Cornelia in the room but he didn't feel awkward, she stood up from the bed and hit him lightly in the shoulder before dragging him out of the room wordlessly.

Liam was speechless as she did so, she wasn't stronger than him in anyway but he didn't want to stop himself from getting dragged outside by her.

She took him to a place in a place in the house and took out a temporarily sealed scroll and passed it over to him with a calm smile, without hesitating he took the scroll from her and read through it.

It contained a letter from the famous Saint Ice academy, from the central Kingdom of the empire.

A very famous school with a long history, it was well known for their training and lessons revolving around the ice elements, this academy has created several legends like the first and second ice saintess of the great sun empire and the Myriad ice lord.

These legends wrote their own histories with the ice element.

It was a really super famous and strong academy.

After reading through it, he folded the scroll and passed it to her with a smile,

"Congratulations Cornelia, I already saw this coming, with your ice bloodline and your ice phoenix, I knew you would soar high" he said calmly, but he noticed the frown on her face and stopped talking looking at her with a slightly surprised face.
