Adam started to listen to the story that he has been looking for all this time, he silently waited until Wendy told him the story and then he could understand what exactly happened. But the main problem was that there are no records left after the fall of the Church of Dawn and there was no way of knowing what exactly happened other than the stories passed down through generations.
“Because God Commanded it,”Wendy felt her mind go blank as she heard the words from this young man, and her guard and lifetime friend Gerard had a similar expression in his face ‘God commanded it?’
Adam felt weird as he made his way to the palace again, today there was no one with him but no one stopped him either. However, the number of eyes on him has increased drastically, maybe due to his appearance in front of the imperial court have made the change-making people have more interest in him but it was not very comfortable for him as he is not used to being the centre of the attention. Especially with an exposed face, and the gazes are much different from what he felt as a refugee. Some had envy, some had jealousy and some carried a hint of hostility but it is also at a negligible level.
Next morning Adam had a tough time handling and getting Amy ready for the first day of school. Last evening was also chaotic in the Han family home as only after he returned from the palace, he informed that Amy can attend the school from tomorrow. The couple was happy about Adam’s decision and Mrs. Han did not hesitate to immediately look for suitable clothes for Amy to wear in the school and also, she started complaining about Adam surprising them with such news without warning before. And Adam again managed to stun both Josh and Lilly as he told the story about the Empress wanting Amy to be present at the palace to train.
Adam made his way to the Palace with hurried steps with Amy in his arms, he managed to get the Empress angry yesterday and he is not ready to kneel like that in front of her again. He asked Amy to have her lunch at the school and let her settle down before taking her to the palace.And by the looks and joyful expression Amy looked to be having a great day with the Saintess Wendy's teaching this lifted Adam’s mood more, he is happy that he learned the basic body tempering
Adam did not know what he should think, it is a great honour to train under the Empress and be her apprentice, but the problem is this is his sister, and he is someone who already has a path toward the Church of Shadows. Truly he is the owner of both Shadow sanctuary and the Church in the West Coast city; this is accepted by the guardian spirit and his ally the CHurch of Shadows too. And the woman here is not someone to believe in gods and if they fail to convince her to allow the Church of Dawn to be resurrected, sooner or later they will find themselves on opposite sides of each other. Because of this having his sister under the empress will not be a good thing. ‘What is she planning? He is having doubt about whether the Empress is still suspecting him, although it is not impossible to think that he is still not out of the woods, yet he doubted that the Empress has an idea to use his sister as leverage. ‘Whatever I will face this as time goes’ Adam knows he is not ready to face th
As usual, he made his way out of the palace in the evening it was almost dark again as he carried the excited Amy in his arms out of the palace. Although he is not having any security today, at night it is not a problem for him especially with all the shadows dancing in the dim light he felt as if he is at his strongest and there is no reason to worry about the safety of his sister. Zen Long knew he made the right decision as he walked toward the Market district with four other people. Adam has made his way into top, far more than anyone can imagine, and once the news gets out, he didn’t know what to expect from others. Already Adam is close to the Empress, he is the only man who has entered her majesty’s private garden and the time he spends in her presence is much more than many other officials.More than anything else this boy is weak, he hBlood Wolf Chapter 65: I Have Too Many Enemies
That night was an important one for Adam, he learned a lot during the conversion. Lord Mason is indeed the wise old man who knew many things related to the Crimson Empire and its history including which are related to other kingdoms too. Although this is not the history Adam is looking for, most stories Mason told him during the conversation was Naval to him. And it helped him to fill many places he is not sure about. And the most important thing is, in the long history of the West Coast city where Adam knew many things happened five thousand years ago. Although lord mason only knew about a small part of the history that gave him a good idea about the noble families. Adam didn’t think this old man would be so friendly and talkative after a few drinks. He was kind enough to explain all about the noble merchant family of Barn and their history to him too.He also understood that Jason and Dave are both people with something against each other. Those two started arguing with each other f
