Andy drove the car back to the castle, and as soon as he parked in front of the huge mansion, Liam alighted from the car, and walked into the building after putting the black box into his pocket in order to avoid any form of inquisition. As he ascended the stairs, the words he heard from Mr. Gary kept on resounding in his ears, and he tried to figure out what he meant by a familiar enemy. “Is Lord Darius related to me in any way?” He whispered only to his hearing, and when he was done with the last step of the staircase, he stood still, staring at space while he continued going through the ideas that crept into his mind.He had almost forgotten that he was meant to do something when he quickly snapped out of his long thought, and sighed heavily. “Those were really strange words.” He said just before he continued walking to his chambers with slow but steady steps. The moment he shut the door behind him, he walked to the cabinet beside his bed, and then pulled out the drawer.
Liam looked at Brina for a few seconds without saying a word, but several thoughts ran through his mind amidst the silence in the room. “What is it, Emrys? What is going on in your mind, Warlord?”“The message say only the blood of an heir can be able to make the words visible. How am I supposed to get the blood of an heir?”“You are an heir, Emrys. The reincarnation of Lord Phaunos himself, the first and most powerful heir. The message is clear, Emrys…” Brina nodded to affirm her words, looking at Liam with a bright smile on her face.“My blood…” Liam looked at the book for a few seconds, and when he had managed to resolve the conflict within him, he sighed heavily and grabbed the book before placing it back on the bed. He opened to the first page of the book while Brina took two steps forward with her eyes focused on the book on the bed. Slowly, he pulled out the dagger from his pants, and then he lifted his left palm to his face for a few seconds, trying to gather enough
Liam thought about the words he heard from Brina for a few seconds, and then he sighed heavily before returning his eyes to the book. He looked at the pictures of the elementals for a while before he flipped to the next page. Just like Brina explained, it was explained that the green stone that he wielded was the Master stone and the strongest link to the other stones which could be able to summon the other stones if they were close by. “I am going to leave you to study as much as you can, Emrys. Remember, mastering the art of perfection should be your first priority. Every other thing will follow eventually.” Brina said calmly, and before Liam could even think of a response to give to her, she vanished. “You didn’t even wait to hear what I wanted to say,” Liam said with a whisper, looking at the spot where Brina was standing as though she was still there. He sighed heavily just before he returned his eyes to the book, and carried it up with both hands to the table by the corn
Liam thought about the words he heard from the Butler while he struggled with the hunger that was inside him. The fact that he was already ready to eat breakfast before Alfred came with the message made him grunt slightly while he tried to maintain a smile on his face. “Who could that be?” He said with a whisper just before he pushed the chair backward and walked toward the Butler who turned around slowly and started walking toward the living room. Liam was still wondering who the guest was when his eyes caught sight of the last person he expected to be in his mansion.“Greetings, Lord Emrys.” Silas Prescott greeted, and then he started walking toward Liam who stood still with his brows lifted to form a furrow. “Mr. Prescott? I wasn’t expecting to see you.” “Well, I didn’t expect myself to be here this morning. But I realized that it was necessary for me to be here.” Silas stood in front of Liam and offered him a handshake. “I see. Well, you are here, we might as well get t
Silas paused for a while just to make sure that Liam was listening to him before he continued with so much enthusiasm written all over his face. At that moment, Liam was able to see a desperate man who could do anything just to amass great wealth and power, but he wasn’t surprised at all as he was expecting him to be that way. “We can take advantage of the war going on in some of the countries in Europe and Asia, we can even take advantage of the terrorism in most parts of Africa. Imagine the great amount of power we would have if we united the money we have and my connections, not even the government of the country or even the military will be able to stop us.”The moment Silas was done talking, he waited to hear what Liam was going to say, and even though he was silent for a while, he didn’t mind as he was hopeful that he was going to love his business idea. Liam forced a smile on his face while he looked at Silas who was still waiting to hear a response from him. The silence
The next morning, as early as the first flicker of dawn, Liam was up on his feet, standing tall in front of his mirror with a bright smile on his face. The joy that radiated inside him was unexplainable, and he tried everything he could to figure out the reason why he was happy. “A penny for your thought?” Brina appeared behind him, putting on a grey jumpsuit with a helmet on her head. Liam was surprised at her dressing when he saw her reflection in the mirror, and he was forced to turn around instantly to look at her. “What is that? What are you wearing?”“Oh, you mean this? You like?” Brina gestured to her outfit, looking at Liam with a bright smile on her face. “Hell, no! You look like a road worker, Brina!” “Well, I saw some men by the roadside putting this on, and I decided to try it out. I think I like the way it feels on my body. It’s so free and light.” Brina lifted her right leg, and that was when Lim realized that she also had black rubber boots on. “You are unbel
As soon as Liam heard the knock on the door, he turned to look at Brina, but she disappeared at once, leaving him alone with the ostrich which started whistling while it continued walking around the room. “Hey? Can you be quiet? Shhh!” Liam placed his index finger above his lips while he continued looking at the ostrich. The nervousness that engulfed him made perspiration run down his body as he thought of what to do. A few seconds later, the knock came back, this time, it was louder than the previous one, and Liam gestured his hands toward the ostrich in other to turn it back into a vase, but it continued moving around. “Can you stay at a place? Stop moving around!” Liam stole a glance at the door when he heard the knock for the third time. Realizing that he was too distracted and nervous to make use of his powers, he went after the ostrich and led it into his bedroom before he shut the door and rested his back against it. “Quiet, you creature! Quiet!” He said with a loud whi
Clad in one of the luxurious outfits he found in the wardrobe, Liam walked down to the dining hall with Noah’s backpack in his hand. He quickly had breakfast, and then walked out of the building only to see Rebecca walking toward him with a black tablet in her hands. “Miss West? I don’t remember asking you to come today.” “Good morning, Lord Emrys.” Rebecca greeted Liam while she took a few steps closer to him just before she stopped with a smile on her face. She remained silent afterward, but Liam waited patiently fit her to give an explanation regarding the reason why she was in the Castle that morning. “You still haven’t said anything, Miss West,” Liam said impatiently, and then he took a glance at the time on his wristwatch, realizing that he was almost late for school. A few seconds later, Andy appeared, and stood in front of one of the black cars parked next to Liam. He saw that Liam was standing with his Personal Assistant, and decided to wait patiently. “I have a
