............"My Lord, your grandfather, Mr. Mark Veridian, was a respected Bishop in the Sacred Temple whom our Pope knew and trusted greatly. That's also the reason why this amulet was entrusted to him to find the Lord Heir," Gabriel Moretti replied, recalling memories of Aarav's grandfather."So he really had an important position! Here I thought he was just bragging about sitting with country leaders," Aarav muttered, recalling something his grandfather used to mention when he was just three years old.As he grew up, Aarav thought his grandfather was just trying to act cool in front of him. Now, hearing it from Cardinal Gabriel himself, Aarav realized his grandfather was truly a great figure.But then came another question: why did his grandfather go missing one day, and why did Aarav suspect his parents' death wasn't accidental?"Care to explain, Cardinal Gabriel? Why did my grandfather suddenly disappear one day?" Aarav asked, giving him a questioning look."Bishop Veridian, tr

............"Sigh...young man, if you're trying to be sneaky and make a surprise attack successful, don't release your bloodlust," Aarav sighed as he landed just beside a young man wearing a black full suit, who had been aiming his gun towards Phia and the others.His words startled the young man, causing him to jump back like a mouse seeing a cat."How did you get here...this...this...impossible! You were just down there...how?" The young man's brain seemed to short-circuit upon seeing Aarav's face, unable to comprehend how he had arrived on the rooftop just seconds after being down in the alley."I don't have time for your brain damage...you...!" Aarav grew annoyed before instantly appearing in front of the young man, his leg connecting with the young man's cheek in a swift axe kick."Bam...Thud!" The kick landed with force, knocking the young man down and causing the rooftop to cave in slightly beneath him. Aarav gave him a subtle glance before leaving the scene.Climbing back d

............Aarav slowly ascended the podium, his presence unconsciously radiating an aura that silenced the crowd, making them wait with bated breath for him to speak.As he stood over the crowd, Aarav's gentle yet captivating tone captured everyone's attention.They were curious about who he was and why they felt compelled to kneel before him."Hello, everyone. You may be confused or curious about who I am, and some of you may be anxious to cure your loved ones. But don't worry, everything will be alright," Aarav reassured them, his voice soothing and commanding their attention.The crowd listened intently, feeling a sense of security and comfort as if they were being embraced by a mother's warmth."I know it may be hard to believe, but God is real. He watches over us, keeping track of our deeds and granting us what we deserve. Today, I will show you a real miracle bestowed upon me by the God Elandor himself!"Aarav expected some reaction from the crowd, but to his surprise, no on

............After two days later, "Aria, listen, don't look so worried. Do your best in the test, and I'll be waiting to hear good news, okay?" Aarav stood with his sister Aria in front of Brook University of Talents, encouraging her as she was getting nervous before the admission test."Alright, let's go, young Miss. We don't want to be late!" Phia urged Aria, pulling her along as it was already time."Aria seems to lose confidence sometimes, huh? Astrid, do I have any prior commitments?" Aarav asked Astrid, who had become his sort of secretary after seeing him overwork himself."Hmm, no, not at the moment. We can wait for Young Miss at the cafe over there," Astrid replied, motioning towards a cafe across the street from the university."Chim... Welcome, dear customers! What can I do for you?" As they stepped into the cafe, a pleasant chime sounded, and a chubby man welcomed them."Get us your best coffee, please," Astrid requested, gesturing towards the chubby man who nodded and

............"Stop... stop!" Both guards halted him in his tracks, causing Aarav to sigh inwardly as he thought, 'As expected, this cliché scenario did happen. Here I thought I would be spared from this shit.'"Yes, gentlemen. Is there a problem?" Aarav smiled calmly, not showing any anger despite the situation.He felt amused rather than getting angry."Sorry... Mister, but... you can't go in!" One of the guards spoke, looking Aarav up and down, taking in his cheap pants and shirt, his ordinary appearance. Despite his above-average looks, the guards saw him as a poor plebeian. They gave him a disdainful look as they looked down on him."And why can't I go in? Isn't this a restaurant for public use? Aren't they doing business?" Aarav asked, guessing from the guards' looks what they might be thinking in their narrow minds."Yes, they are doing business, but not just anyone can enter the high-end restaurant and dine. Did you even look at your face, you poor pleb!" the second guard spa
