“I will be choosing the room at the far end of the hall. Opposite from you guys because I want to have some alone time during the stay. I want to figure out what is going on with me relating to all those dreams. Please…” Adrian made up a drama at the dinner table so he can act secretly out of supervision.
“….” Malcom was silent for a bit as he doesn’t know what to say. His son is only 10 years old. Leaving him unsupervised will threated the heir of the family. He then turns to Amanda for the answer.
“Sigh… okay. But the servants need to stay in the seco

It was midnight. The moon gloriously shining on the sky, shone on the gazebo at the courtyard of the Cross estate. A rhythmic tune of a guitar and the beautiful voice of a boy echoes in the middle of the night under the gazebo. Ralph walks in to the courtyard following the melody and bows to the singer. “Ah… You are back.” Adrian stops the strumming and pays attention to Ralph. “Yes, young master. I have successfully fulfilled the mission. Here are the insignias that you hand over to me. It was helpful. Thank you for your consideration.” Ralph hands over the insignias to Adrian. "That is good. Everything is settled here. The town and Cross Catch. All we need to do is wait. There is 2 days more for us to depart to the capital. You can get some rest.” Adrian shows a calm smile. “Young master, you met with Kathleen and went to the hospital during the day alone?” Ralph asks what Adrian does when he was gone. “It was just a short trip. Don’t worry.

After dismissing Ralph, the king looked at Arnold. “Arnold… swear to me and the gods that this meeting never happen.” Elijah said in a serious tone. “Hmm? Ah, yes, Your Majesty. I swear by the gods and by your name this meeting never happened. I was never here.” Arnold was confused at first but he does anything as the king ordered him to. “Good. You can leave now” Elijah nods and dismiss the Royal Knight Commander. “As you wish Your Majesty.” Arnold kneels in front of the king and queen then leave the throne room. “That is a very shocking information. Demonic beast from the underworld. Miasma and all. I think I have read about the underworld when I was studying in the Dawn Kingdom.” Charlotte said in a solemn tone. “I also have encountered some ancient records about this. My father keeps it in the basement of the library where the other ancient records are kept hidden. The question is how does that 10-year-old boy knows? Who is he real

Inside a wide indoor training room under a glorious palace, two children are circulating mana under the guide of their father. It was a rare occurrence as their father is a king. The king of the Twilight Kingdom. “Hmm… that is good. Charles, you are getting better at this.” Elijah praises his son. “Really? Ouch. Dad?” Charles opens his eyes then smiles brightly at his father but he got a knock on his head. “Focus, Charles. Keep at it, Chelsea. You almost reach 2 Star stage.” Elijah said to his daughter who did not say anything and keep circulating mana. Charles looked at his twin. He snorts and gets back to circulating mana. Elijah smiles seeing the twin’s interaction. A sibling competition is always welcome but seeing his children behave like this he thought it is adorable. “Charlotte is with Marie. There are no meetings today. Everything is handled but the new trouble brewing across the kingdom is worrying. The problem is we don’t kn
Chapter 61: ‘Experiment’ Begins
Some of the children had mana as they are the same age if Adrian. The weird thing that Adrian discovers is that their mana is totally absent. He knows they don’t have the same capabilities as Adrian’s mana mastery. Adrian had read about poisons and already made a book of ‘Herbology’ that Marylyn borrowed. Inside the book Adrian had a note about ‘Rigor Poison’. It’s a clump of elemental mana that is mixed with the creature’s blood. It is feed into the victim, to put them in to a deep sleep state while preserving the body condition. In short, it is a food preserving method for the monsters. It is hard to detect externally but they can be spotted or detected in the change of the victim’s blood. It can be cured by a standard antidote or Light spell: Cure to counteract the poison. “Is he new to this job?” Adrian stares at Jonah begun to trust the young priest less. “Ahem… Priest Jonah… Have you tried to use ‘Cure’ on the children?” Adrian questions the pri
Chapter 60: Victims of Miasma
“I’m done changing. Let’s head towards town and see the situation.” Adrian is now wearing a new set of noble clothes. Ralph picked out a slick black theme set. He did not shy to splurge on the clothes with 2 gold coins. As Adrian strides into town, the people stare at him with awe and admiration. They did not forget to compliment on the new clothes he wore with a nod. Adrian looks dashing as he always does. The first place he visits is the town’s hospital. The hospital is just a 1 storey building and it is not too big. Upon entering the hospital, priest and patients are roaming in the halls going from room to room. The rescuers and the children totalling 23 people involved must on their beds, either sleeping or groaning in pain.

Zig zagging to dodge projectiles shot by the swarm of lake imps. “Keek.. keik… kek..” The sound of hundreds of lake imps chasing after Adrian. The swarm is led by the Lake Imp King. Its size is as big as a hobgoblin, almost 2 meters tall. Its not difficult to differentiate them. There is only one of them had a massive difference in size then the rest of them after all. Also the blue crown is a huge give out. “Hehehe… I’m just trying to make a choice. Either I exterminate all of them….” Adrian is actually thinking while humming a song? “Of course, just kill of them!
