Chapter 94

94 Chapter 94: The coming together of two family members.

Kevin used his shadow void skill to appear outside the shadow and landed in front of the library.

But before he entered the library, he took a look at his Status which immediately displayed the amount of Exp he had.

Not thinking twice about the decision, Kevin immediately accepted to level up, while standing outside the library.

The night was cold and the snow was falling more than before. Kevin wondered if the queen might have left but something was hinting to him that she was still around.

He could feel an attraction towards her, perhaps it was because they were of the same blood. But, from the time he had set his eyes on her, he had that feeling of a close relationship with her, even before she removed the veil from her head.

Kevin had a lot of things to do for this week and the next few weeks.

He wanted to try out the VR game once again, he would say he was so interested in that game and couldn’t wait till they resumed classes the next day. Their first day at the academy was ruined, but tomorrow will be the second day they’ll be spending in the magical school, so he still has a lot of days left to play the game.

Another thing he wanted to do was to go to the black market to meet the merchant who sold the Triling rings to people. If he could obtain the lists of those he sold the rings to, his quest will be ten times easier than before.

But the problem is, he does not know where the black market was. He had no idea how to get there. Perhaps, maybe Lexa or Jeri would know if he asks them.

.....

Last but not least was that he needed weapons and armor. The system had told him he could provide him with any weapon he wishes, but Kevin is not a knowledgeable person in terms of weapons. He does not think he had eyes for nice and best weapons, so he’ll need an expert who could select the best weapons for him.

Or maybe the Queen might have someone who could take care of that for him.

Now that Kevin thought of it, he realized how lucky he is. He had always thought he was some poor child from a poor family, but now he realized that both of his parents were wealthy fellows.

His mother was the Queen of a specific world. His father was... maybe a rich guy from birth, he do not know. He just knew that the system was created by a friend of his father who was rich, blah blah blah.

‘Your father was a king, a great king.’ The System said.

‘What? A king?’ Kevin inquired again to see if he heard the system correctly.

‘Yeah, your father was a king in the human world and you are automatically the crown prince since he had no other female in his life apart from your mother. He would have come to see you when you were a kid but he was murdered by his family members on your fifth birthday. He didn’t know that your mother was pregnant with you, he would have come sooner. If not for the wizard, we wouldn’t have known anything.

On his last breath, he told me to find you and make you get stronger so you could ascend his throne, that’s why I granted you a system and also become an A1 to guide you to the right path.”

‘Is that so?’ Kevin was baffled and felt a little pity for his father. ‘I didn’t know that’s what happened.’

‘That’s why I’m telling you not to judge people without hearing them out.’

‘But, why was he killed, why did his family members kill him?’ Kevin asked in a curious tone.

‘Kevin, I honestly won’t lie to you. I can’t tell you that at the moment. If you want to know the truth, you must seek it yourself. Make it to the human world at all cost then you’ll be able to find more about your father.’

Kevin guessed that the system would say that. He has always been trying not to talk to him about his father or his past. It was a surprise how the system even revealed the little he said.

As soon as Kevin ended his speech with the A1 system, he received a message from the system.

He had long forgotten about the pain in his body. The pain he feels every time he levels up. With the thoughts and discussion he was having with the system, he was able to move without feeling much pain from the Evolution.

< Strength stat: 20

Now that he’s evolved, it’s time to take care of the next matter before going back to Lexa.

He walked towards Lina’s office, luckily, the queen and the wizard were still in the office. He could hear them talking to each other.

“Your majesty, be patient, your son will come back soon. Have faith.”

“How long do I have to wait,” The Queen said, tearfully. “If the king notices that I’m gone, there will be trouble. You know how possessive he is over me. I had to risk coming to see my son, the only child I ever gave birth to, even though I may get into trouble.”

Kevin breathed inwardly, and then outwardly before opening the door of Lina’s office.

As soon as he entered the room, he immediately ran towards the Queen and hugged her.

“I’m so sorry Kevin. I’m sorry for abandoning you, for not being there for you.” The Queen cried.

“No, don’t say that. I’m the one that should be sorry for not understanding you. I know it wasn’t your fault, it was just how things were meant to play out by fate. I forgive you, Mum.”

This was the first time he would be calling someone Mum and it felt weird.

The Queen glared at Kevin’s face as she heard that Kevin forgave her.

“You... you forgave me?” She asked.

“Yes, I thought about it all and decided to forgive you, my dad, and the wizard. I wish to let bygone be bygones.” Kevin replied.

“Oh, I’m really proud of you. Thank you Kevin for your forgiveness.”

“Ahem!” The wizard cleared his throat. “Queen, I think it’s time to go. The king...”

“Wait wizard, I need to talk with my son about some things before I leave. I don’t care that the king does.”
