"Here. Take him." Ian picked up the kid that was clinging to him like a monkey and placed him on the King's hand. "Uh.. yeah.." The King hesitated for a moment, seeing the kid flailing around in his arm but then held him properly. "You two... Stop it." Next, Ian removed another two babies that were clinging to him from left and right and placed them on the chair. "Should we continue our lunch? There's a lot I'm curious about.." Ian said as he sat down on his seat. Ian wanted to know why the rumours about the King were so severe and what exactly happened for him to put his brother behind the bars. The King nodded his head and took his seat. The royal robe fallen onto the floor was picked up by one of the guards and taken away. "But before that, can we have a proper introduction?" The King requested. Ian nodded his head since it was reasonable enough. Although they were comfortable with each other since they had met in good terms and even had that kid's certificate of inn

It was a silent reunion. Both the parents and their child were too surprised, happy, emotional and relieved to utter a single word as they hugged each other tightly. Ian and Rick was watching from the side as the happy reunion took place in front of them. A few minutes passed, and a certain someone started to feel a little jealous. "Hey! Let me in too! I also want to hug!" Rick, the King who didn't look like a king at all right now, shouted and expressed his jealousy. His brother and sister-in-law both looked at his puffed cheeks and laughed, wiping the tears that were continuously flowing from their eyes. "Come!" The big brother called his younger brother, and the younger brother ran up to his brother and joined the family hug. They were finally together. They were finally reunited once again. Ian quietly stepped back and went outside the room, giving the family their own personal time to enjoy the moment. His two kids waiting outside the door also looked moved by the whole si

"I can cure him. Completely." Ian repeated his sentence word by word to make it easier for Rick and his family to understand, digest or register. And yet, everyone still kept looking at him with an expression of disbelief. 'Did they lose it?' Ian was honestly curious. As he kept looking back without repeating himself for the third time, Rick looked like he managed to get a hold of himself as he stood up from the chair. "Ian... Can you.. please.. repeat what you just said?" And this time, although he was asking Ian to repeat himself, it was more of a request for further explanation. Ian nodded his head and spoke again- "I know you guys must've tried every possible method to cure your brother during all these times." He said calmly as he looked around. The simple looking room had hundreds of mana devices installed in it, controlling the different factors of the atmosphere as well as blocking the outside mana, filtering it and letting it in etc. "You must've brought all the renow

"I'll lend some to you, okay?"Ian said he'd lend the magic stones to Rick while grabbing his shoulder. Ian was in a hurry. He wanted to leave as soon as possible so he chose the quickest and most effective method. Ian's initial plan was simply. Find Riley's family, have a chat with them, and then decide whether he would leave Riley to them or take him for himself. But things had gotten a little more complicated. Not only did Riley turn out to be a Prince and perhaps even the future ruler of the tribe, he also got to meet a remarkable a remarkable individual like Rick. Honestly speaking, if it weren't for his respect for Rick and his struggles, he wouldn't have really cared whether the previous King died or lived. It all stemmed from his relation with Rick, which Ian wanted to maintain for a long time. "You'll lend me...?"Rick repeated Ian's words like a parrot as he looked at him with a blank expression. "Yeah. I'll lend them to you. So don't worry.."Ian nodded his head. "No

'Not lie.. But also not worry them?'The Phoenix repeated Ian's words and asked back. Ian nodded his head and asked back. 'Yep. Should be easy, right?'The Phoenix repeated Ian's words in his mind for a few seconds, a vein was popping out on his forehead as he kept thinking and thinking. And at the end of his thought process, he decided that-'Like hell it is!'It wasn't easy. He decided that it wasn't easy at all. All of Ian's people's were extremely knowledgeable, not just comparing to kids their age, but also compared to adults. Ian was always filling their head with new knowledge and information, even while playing around. And even without that, they all had a certain hunger for knowledge which he noticed clearly specially in Ash. The way that kid always holed himself up inside Ian's bedroom and kept reading one book after another looked like his life depended on it or something. And they also grew. Faster than anyone and everyone around them. It was fascinating to watch. And
