Chapter 342: Daycare Center
Rex, who had very tan skin at the moment, sat nervously on the steel chair as his father with three men in black robs glared at him.
“Do you know why we summoned you back to the family island?” Theodore asked as the others glared at Rex.
“Ahh... You forgave me?” Rex asked. For the last month, he had been assigned as a mining supervisor in a desert country for breaking Luke's leg after catching him with his fiance.
Although Rex didn’t break any rules, he was punished by Theodore who didn’t like his sons fighting. He was supposed to work there until the end of the year.
“Of course not, but something urgent came...” Theodore said.
“Oh...” Rex frowned.
“Let’s get straight to business. Did you or did you not teach Lara this martial art!” Theodore asked his son very coldly as he pushed forward a folder containing a precise description of the art he taught Lara.
Rex frowned for a second, looking at the two men who were from the inquisition hall before he replied. “I did!”
“YOU BASTARD! HOW DARE YOU...” Theodore flared up immediately.
“Esteemed father, you told me to!” Rex quickly interrupted while looking strangely at his enraged father.
“WHAT? I told you to teach her the family martial arts!” Theodore said.
“Yes... Isn’t this the family martial art?” Rex said, malign Theodore frown, looking at one of the men then back at Rex.
“I am the one asking questions here!” Theodore scolded. “Read this quickly and tell me, is this the art you taught Lara... Especially the part marked in red!”
“Oh...” Rex frowned and looked at it, reading it twice... “Yes it is!” he nodded.
“Who taught you this?” Theodore asked, frowning a little. He didn’t expect Rex to come clean this fast.
“You did!” Rex replied, frowning a little as if he didn’t understand what his father meant.
“WHAT? I didn’t teach you this!” Theodore scolded, putting another paper on the table. “What I taught you was this... The original family art. Do you see the difference?” he asked, getting a little angry.
Rex quickly compared the two. “No... You taught me the first one... I clearly remember it!” Rex said. ”It is the one I practiced!”
“WHAT ...” Theodore wanted to scold, but one of the men held his hand.
“Are you sure?” the man asked Rex.
“Yes!” Rex nodded. He didn't seem to be lying
The man frowned and looked at his partner who shook his head.
“Let us see then... Can you practice it here in front of us?” another man said.
“Ah... yes...” Rex nodded. It has been a while since he did this, so he relaxed his body and closed his eyes then began to practice...
Everything went fine...
“You are practicing the normal art... not the one you taught Lara...” Theodore suddenly said.
“No... I am...” Rex paused... “Strange... “ he said as he held his head. He seemed a little disoriented. “No... I swear this is the art I know... why am I practicing it wrong?”
“I see...” one of the inquisitors said, looking at the others. “Rex... You can leave for today, stay on the island for two more days though, and don’t practice that art anymore...” he added as Theodore frowned looking at his son.
Rex nodded and stepped out... He looked a little lost but seemed to not dare question his father.
“He was telling the truth...” the man who was silent until now spoke. “My skill didn’t detect any anomaly!”
“And he never practiced the modified art... He couldn’t even apply it...” the other said.
“What does this mean?” the last one said.
“Someone brainwashed him...” Theodore replied as he squinted his eyes. “I need to go over everyone Rex worked within the last three years...” he said.
“Probably... I will ask my men to see if they have anything...” the first man said with a smile, watching Theodore ponder over this matter... Of course, Rex was lying, but so was the inquisitor!
“Theodore... When you called us yesterday, you said you had some other thing you needed to tell us about....” one of the men asked.
“...I didn’t manage to get it... We will talk about this later...” Theodore replied. He wanted to get the diary from Victor earlier, but when he went to the mansion before heading to the family island, Victor was not there.
According to Margret, she took Lily and Lin to some secret place to have tons of fun and should return in a couple of weeks. She seemed a little annoyed that he didn’t take her too...
Theodore wanted to stay and get to know his daughters-in-law, but after overhearing two of the new loli maids discuss how they were surprised when they saw their young master's giant cock, he decided to return when Victor was home.
He had to admit, he was feeling a little jealous. Not because of the lolis. He was not into that shit.
It was just that his wives never talk about him like that...
In Victor’s mansion, there was even some stupid maid singing a lullaby about how her young master’s train took her to heaven!
Why didn’t his wives and concubines sing for his ‘train’? Was Victor bigger or faster than his?
Damn it!
“Theodore....Theodore... Why are you spacing out?” One of the men asked after Theodore paused suddenly in mid-sentence.
“Sorry... Just thought about something important...” he shook his head.
“Oh.... I see...” one elder said, frowning.
; ; 4/10 Fruits have been eaten!
“It is about time for lunch...” Victor said while shaking his head and then looking at Tulip. “Juicy... let me teach you how to fry eggs!” he said.
“...” Tulip frowned and said nothing as Victor began to set up his portable cookware.
“KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA...” Suddenly a high-pitched scream alerted them, making Victor frown.
“Juicy, Start preparing food, This emperor will be back in a second!” Victor told Tulip as he quickly jumped and ran toward the source of the scream, about two miles away.
There, near a grand tree, a naked white-haired girl was covered in blood as she desperately fought a group of other men who wore strange silvery fur coats.
Victor looked at the girl and frowned. It was as if he had seen her somewhere before, but he couldn’t remember where and when and that was strange by itself.

Another one... This little girl was a scion too damn it!
Did the same thing happen in his previous life too? Did scions flock to this dungeon like flies flocking to a piece of shit?
It seemed like, this place had some very strong artifact that was even managing to fool the scion’s world protection.... With every second, Victor was affirming his guess about the nature of this place... He needed to start implementing his plan soon!
Looking at the girl and the hooligans around her, Victor could only sigh and move to help her.
He had the feeling that because of the danger in this dungeon, the world and destiny were pushing Scions toward him. In a way he was right, despite Victor’s plan to use them, by staying with him, their life and destiny would not be harmed.
What was he again? A scion daycare center?
Whatever...
“Ah...What a hot girl...” someone suddenly said, it was Liam who was panting after he following Victor from behind. Victor flashed him a very dangerous glare then quickly hid it after he realized what Liam’s plan was.
Damn it... Victor cursed at himself, he was a little fooled by Liam’s weak appliance. This guy was a fox! He must be planning to make Victor reveal all his trump cards or even his identity... And maybe even get him a little weakened!
Ever since Victor met him, he had been trying to ask around to no avail.
Regardless... Victor would have done the same if their roles were reversed.
Be it a fox or a rabbit, they were all destined to be slaves!
Liam’s voice alerted the men who turned and looked at the sound source....
PSHHHHHHH............
They didn’t see what hit them as a screaming fat man fell on top of them, pushing them to the ground after Victor grabbed and threw him at them in a split second.
In a matter of moments, Victor used their shock to start a massacre.
