Chapter 629 Revealing The Truth

"It's not good, young master. He is a very vengeful person. He will definitely come–"

Max placed a finger on her lips, silencing her. He then looked into her eyes and confidently said, "If he comes, he will leave his life here. So, don't worry, okay?"

Lily wanted to argue, but seeing his confident gaze, she kept silent.

Then, a moment later, she quietly said, "We can't afford to kill him. He has a strong backing."

Max shook his head, "We'll worry about it when he returns. For now, I have something more important to talk about."

...

Because Sera and Claire were there, Ruo and her grandfather didn't dare leave. After a while, Ruo started talking to Sera and Claire.

The old man was a little worried initially because he knew not everyone was like Max. However, Sera and Claire didn't seem bothered by Ruo's constant chattering. In fact, they were responding to her every question.

Watching them happily talk about random things, he fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, Claire said, "Little Ruo, while we are living here, you should play with my son, Kevin. He is the same age as you."

Silence!

Ruo's smiling face turned gloomy when she heard her while the old man snapped out of his thoughts.

Seeing this, Claire frowned and asked, "Is something wrong, little Ruo?"

Ruo shook her head, and forced a smile on her face, "There's nothing wrong, milady. Please excuse me."

Saying this, she stood up, bowed toward them before leaving the living room.

Max had only realized this after he joined the Cloud Academy and read information on the dantians. At that time, he had felt very lucky to be transmigrated into such a wonderful family.

If he had transmigrated into any other family, he was fairly positive that family wouldn't have acted the same. They would have enquired about his encounter and would ask him to share it with them. If he had not, they might have used extreme measures and his life might've become a living hell, unlike now..

Of course, he was a bit extreme in thinking like this... there would definitely be other families who love their children the same and would be selfless enough to not covet his fortune.

Still, this didn't stop him from becoming grateful to the Garfields. This was also why–in addition to the fact that Original's memories were affecting him–he truly started treating them as his family.

'I truly overestimated my intelligence and underestimated theirs.' He thought self-deprecatingly. 'I wouldn't even be too surprised if Ashton had already realized I'm no longer his son. Though I truly hope he did not.'

"Young master... if that's the case, you should be careful. Although Master Ashton had controlled the information about you not being able to sense mana, some should already know it. Once they find out you have become a mage and have progressed so much in just a little more than half a year... things will become very dangerous." Lily worriedly said,

Max grabbed her hand, and chuckled, "Don't worry. No one had come to bother me about this until now. Besides, things are already very dangerous."

"What do you mean?" She asked,

"You'll know once I'm done telling you everything."

Max continued. "You guys weren't wrong. I truly had a fortunate encounter..."

He told her about the system and with that, Lily became the first person to know the truth.

"...No wonder you started improving so fast once we started doing that." Lily muttered in realization.

She felt warm and fuzzy inside, realizing he trusted and loved her enough to share such a big secret with her. At the same time, she became worried.

"Young master, how many know about this?" She asked,

"About the system? Just you. Anna, and Emily though, know that I can become stronger by having sex."

Hearing this, Lily sighed and said, "Young master, you shouldn't have told me about it either. The more people know about it, the more in danger you'll be."
