Adrian was amazed by how sophisticated the mansion looked. If he didn't know better, he would have thought the house was even bigger than the castle itself. “Brother… this place is huge,” Macy whispered to Adrian. Adrian smiled. “Do you like it here?” He asked her. She nodded coyly and he chuckled. “Very soon, I will own a place like this. And you will live with me,” Adrian told her. Macy smiled at him. “It is good for you to dream brother. But remember, we are nothing. We mustn't dream too high,” she said to him in sadness. But Adrian stroked her hair. “Trust me, Macy. I will take care of this,” he said to her. “Take care of what?” A woman suddenly asked behind them. Both Adrian and Macy turned around and saw a servant standing there. Her face was twisted into an angry glare. “What the hell are you two doing here? Who let you in?” The servant asked, eyeing their worn-out clothes and bad shoes. Adrian sensed her attitude. “We have a meeting with Master Draco. Jade asked us to wait here,” Adrian replied with a frown, but the servant scoffed. “Thieves! You're fucking thieves aren't you?” She screamed out, pointing her finger at them. “What are you talking about? We are not thieves,” Macy replied to her but she gasped. “Oh dear, the poor girl has been brainwashed. Not only are you a thief, you're also a kidnaper!” The servant yelled at Adrian. “What fucking bluff are you on about? Do not spill accusations at me,” Adrian replied to her calmly. “Or what? What will you do? Huh! Will you rob me too?” The servant suddenly dashed at Adrian and grabbed his shirt. Macy gasped as she tried to rip it. “Come on, I dare you! Hit me! I'll send your fucking ass to the dungeons you pathetic thief. Your days of thievery are over!” She kept dragging his shirt until he pushed her off him. The servant fell on her butt. A pained cry escaped her lips while she raised her hands in a frenzy. “Help! Do you want to rape me? Somebody help me!” The servant started to scream. In no time, two guards rushed in, each armed with a sword. They helped her up and aimed their weapons at Adrian. “Take him! He's a thief! And he tried to rape me!” She accused. “That's a lie. My brother did none of such things!” Macy countered. The servant’s eyes flashed hot. “Brother? Take the bitch too. She's an accomplice!” The servant accused even further. The guards then focused on Adrian and Macy “You both needs to come with us, now!” They commanded “We are going nowhere with you,” Adrian replied to the guards who scoffed. “Your thieving ass should be begging for mercy right now and still you taunt? We shall skin you alive and give your bones to the dogs!” The guards cursed and just as they were about to attack Adrian, a sharp voice cut through the air! “What the hell do you think you're doing?” Jade slowly descended from one of the floors as vines guarded her down. Adrian was amazed. She has earth magic. One of the rarest kinds of magic there is. “Lady Jade. Thank the heavens you're here. This thief came in here and was causing trouble -” Jade slapped the servant immediately! Both guard exchanged glances as the servant held her cheeks in shock “You dare call a revered guest in this house a thief? How dare you!” Jade growled! “I- I didn't know - I thought he was a thief-” “Shut the fuck up! Stop talking! Your voice irritates me!” “Lady jade-” “That's it. Your fucking fired! Get out of this house now!” Jade snapped at the servant. “No, wait, please!” “Drag her out of here!” Jade commanded the guards. They quickly did what they were told. While the servant's screams filled the room, Jade turned to Adrian and bowed before him. “I am so sorry for that. Please, follow me. Master Draco will see you now,” she told him and pointed to the vibes that had formed a cushion. Adrian chuckled and stepped on them. But when Macy tried to follow, Jade held her back. “He will see you alone,” she told Adrian. Adrian, uncertain, nodded. “If anything happens, scream.” He tried his luck and said inside his head. He wasn't a telepath and couldn't send such messages, but he just had to try… “Okay, brother… I hear you,” Macy replied telepathically. Adrian was surprised. And so was she. Did he just send a psychic message? What other surprises would he discover about his powers? That thought lingered on Adrian's min while the vines slowly elevated, raising Adrian to the fifth floor in the grand mansion. It was time to meet with this mysterious Master Draco. And Adrian had no idea what to expect.

Chapter 150
150. The cheering inside City Hall refused to die as different rebels walked up to him to congratulate him. Henry wanted the floor to open up and swallow him whole. “Alright, alright, shut up!” He said to the next one who came. Nobody listened and someone threw a blanket at him. Kael nearly fell over laughing. “I’ve never seen anyone look so embarrassed after kissing a beautiful woman.” “I hate every single one of you.” “No you don’t.” “You’re right.” Henry sighed. “Unfortunately.” Mira had sat up again, looking equally embarrassed. “They’re acting like we got married.” “Give them time.” Kael said. “Someone will probably organise a wedding by dinner.” “KAEL!” The former knight laughed even harder. Henry sat beside Mira’s bed. “You should rest.” “You should rest too.” “I wasn’t nearly crushed by a building.” “Yes, but I know you carried a lot of people back here today.” “I’m strong.” Henry said, and Mira burst into laughter. “That’s off
Chapter 149
149. Henry hated that scream immediately. When he got to Mira’s site, she was nowhere to be found, but he could hear loud screaming from someone. The kind of scream people made when they thought they were about to die. "Shit." He dropped the blanket he was carrying and turned around. Kael picked up the blanket and ran beside him. "You can’t just run when you hear a scream." "I can’t find Mira!” Henry exclaimed, still running. The scream came again, but this time it sounded weaker. Henry was sick to his stomach. Mira. Please don't let it be Mira. He begged in his mind. It couldn’t be her, not after everything she had already done to help people! The giant tower still stood in the distance like a giant middle finger aimed at the entire kingdom. “FUCK YOU!” Henry spat at it as he ran through the wreckage. Kael followed behind. "Slow down!" "I can’t afford to!" Henry said, throwing himself over obstacles and jumping like a kangaroo before he slid beneath a lar
Chapter 148
148. Henry was in the middle of losing an argument with Kael in the major city mall. There was a supply run and he had volunteered to be part of it, but as they stocked up, they argued. "I'm telling you, that's a terrible idea." "It's a brilliant idea." Kael replied. "No, it's terrible." "Brilliant!" Mira walked past both of them carrying medical supplies. "You're both idiots. Be quick so we can leave." "See?" Henry pointed at her. "She agrees with me." "No." Mira replied without stopping. "I think you're both idiots." Kael laughed. The rebellion base had become surprisingly lively over the last few days. There were more people in the "family". So that meant more training, more planning, and more arguments. For the first time in months, things almost felt normal for Henry, save for attacks. He had become more used to the environment. Henry sat on a wooden crate and looked at Kael. "So you're seriously saying we should put explosives under a bridge?"
Chapter 147
147. "Selene, answer me!” Selene wasn’t looking at Adrian, her eyes were on the stone instead. What the hell would she say to him? Selene didn't know, so she didn’t respond. She stared at the ball for a second before quickly closing her fingers around it. “Selene." Still nothing. She shoved the ball into her pocket and looked away. "We need to get the children out first, Adrian. Everything else is secondary." Her voice sounded strained. Adrian nodded and slowly got to his feet. His throat still hurt from where the warden had nearly crushed it. He looked at Selene, and shook his head. He had so many questions that were practically exploding inside his head. What kind of magic was that? Why had she lied about being able to do magic? What else had she lied about? How many other things was she hiding? He shook his head. No, he needed to concentrate on the kids. Most of them looked terrified. Adrian swallowed his questions. "Right, the children.” Selene looked

Chapter 145
145. The stolen palace records were spread across the large table in his study. Adrian went through them with a frown on his face. "This makes absolutely no sense." Selene sat opposite him, reading through another pile of papers. Adrian frowned as he went through some documents. The handwriting was so bad he had to struggle to understand what was going on in them. "What does that line say?" He said, showing Selene a page. She squinted. "Deserving prisoners" A few days had passed since they stole the documents from a palace archive. Most of it was boring, all about taxes and mundane reports, supplies, there was a report about a man arrested for punching a goat. Adrian finished up with that batch and opened the next one. DEVELOPMENT FOR SUPPLY AND POWER, the top read. This was the most intriguing one so far, he told Selene who shrugged. “That sounds like they’re talking about power to use for machines.” “I don’t know.” Adrian said as he took out the cover. T
