Cortus’ parents welcomed him with a tight hug, seeing as he came back alone. The couple kept whispering words of encouragement at their son, knowing how down he was.
His twins instantly tackled Rombus, grabbing a hold of both his legs the moment he jumped out of the cart, while his wife cackled, watching her husband drag himself. The two end up in a kiss when the guy finally got closer.
Chris remained inside the cart, quietly sitting on its side. The child stared blankly into nothingness, hiding within those crates and sacks.
Asron let out a heavy sigh when he gaze at him, but he did not speak and just went off to meet with his spouse, who was walking towards them.

They remained watching, waiting, and taking notes on everything that was happening.Their gaze focused on the individuals that were currently joyfully on a plot of land, digging, chatting, and laughing at one another. Eyes glowing red, ominous grins appearing on their faces upon seeing the few people that were there.Below, the three remained clueless of the beings that were observing them, as they were enthralled by their activities.Asron’s gaze was glued on Chris, focused on making certain that the youngster was properly moving his hips and arms with each movement.“Do not use that power of yours.
