Chapter 43: I Am Legend [Part 1]

Alessia had been feeling anxious over the past few days since her husband and son hadn't left the Smithy for nearly five days straight.

The only reason why she hadn't barged inside the Smithy to check their condition was due to the fact that the meals she prepared and left for them were always eaten, and a note would always be there when she came to retrieve it.

She could easily tell that it was her son's handwriting since her husband's handwriting reads like a language that hadn't been discovered by mankind yet.

In short, it was complete sh*t. Much worse than chicken scratches!

On the last note that she received, Thirteen mentioned that they were in a critical phase, so there was a possibility that they wouldn't be able to eat anything or leave a note.

However, it was also firmly stated that, no matter what happened, none of them must go inside the Smithy, specifying that if their concentration were broken, it might cause a backlash.

Suddenly, a powerful fluctuation reverberated in the surroundings, making Alessia, who was currently taking care of Remi and supervising Mikhail's and Shasha's training, look in the direction of the Smithy.

At that exact moment, a heavenly apparition appeared in the sky above their residence.

A golden sword glowed brightly, and the roar of a dragon reverberated in the surroundings, causing the Leventis Family, who governed this part of the Aldebaran Continent to look at the skies in awe.

"What is happening?" Lady Callista asked as she looked at the sky. "Hans, do you know what is going on?"

"No, Lady Callista... but." Hans' gaze became solemn. "Whatever it is, it is coming from the direction of Young Master Gerald's house."

Lady Callista's eyes widened in shock after hearing her Butler's reply.

"Get the car, Hans," Lady Callista ordered. "Wait, never mind. I'll just go there myself."

Lady Callista then jumped high in the air, creating a small platform to step upon, using it as a springboard to dash forward.

Hans didn't hesitate to follow his Mistress, activating his own skills to catch up to her. This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

Trisha, who didn't have such skills, sprinted toward the garage to use the car herself. No matter what happened, she must be by Lady Callista's side in order to provide support just in case she was headed to a battlefield.

Lady Callista and Arthur frowned after hearing her reply. The first thing they wanted to do was barge inside the Smithy, but now, they decided to just wait for the time being.

Although Arthur had disowned Gerald, he wouldn't do anything foolish as to harm him intentionally, especially since his wife, Lady Callista, was there with him.

"Michael, stand watch outside and make sure that no one comes here to investigate," Arthur ordered. "That Heavenly Apparition could be seen for miles, and I'm sure that the other Families are now aware of it. Feel free to call the Sentinels to stand guard, but do not allow them to enter within a thousand meters of this place.

"If anyone from the Monarch Clans or the Prestigious Family asks what is happening, tell them that I'm just trying out a new Martial Skill. Now, go."

"Yes, Father," Michael replied as he moved towards the main gate of the residence.

"Hans, help Michael to guard the surroundings," Lady Callista ordered. "Don't even let a fly enter this residence, do I make myself clear?"

"Yes, My Lady." Hans bowed respectfully before doing as he was told.

Arthur and Lady Callista then stood in front of the entrance of the Smithy with calm expressions on their faces.

They were very curious about what was happening, but they didn't do anything reckless and simply waited for any signs of movement on the other side.

Fortunately, they didn't have to wait long.

After an hour, the doors of the Smithy opened and an exhausted-looking Gerald came out.

"Alessia, stay here with the kids," Gerald stated. "Everything is fine."

He then looked at his father with a smug smile on his face before making a gesture for him and his mother to follow him inside.

Lady Callista and Arthur glanced at each other before following their son inside the room.

Arthur didn't like the smug look that his son had given him because he felt as if Gerald was looking down on him.

However, when his eyes landed on the four pieces of equipment on the table in front of him, his eyes widened in shock, making the smug smile on Gerald's face widen even more.
