The Lost Heir Of Sargent WHY DID YOU BRING ME TO THIS PLACE?
"Mo... Mom, is that you?" He called out once again, it was her, his mother, Marie.She looked younger, panicked, running barefoot, tears streamed down her face, as she held a baby in her arms carefully, as if she is protecting the baby from someone or something.A voice boomed from behind her."You can’t hide him forever, Marie! You think you can fight fate? You think you can protect him from what he is?" She didn’t stop. Didn’t even turn around.Just held the baby tighter, he can say it for sure, that baby infant was none other than him.Christian felt cold all over."You’ll never touch him! I'll never allow anyone to touch my baby," she screamed. "Not as long as I’m alive!" Thunder cracked above. Lightning split the sky. Christian wanted to run toward her, call out to her, but he couldn’t move. His body was frozen, as if trapped in a distance, "Mom... mom, can you hear me? Please look at me..." Hiding behind a huge tree, she gently glanced at the baby in her embrace, "My de
The Lost Heir Of Sargent DO YOU REALLY THINK WE DESERVED ALL OF THAT?
"Actually," Charles began, only to be disturbed by the manager, "Mr. Charles..." Charles frowned at the manager, "I'm speaking to my nephew, can't you see that?" The manager whispered something in Charles's ear making Charles's face become pale filled with panic.Immediately getting back his composure, Charles said, "I'll be there in a minute..." As the manager left after a glance at Charles, Christian stared at Charles's face with confusion, "Is everything okay?" "Umm, I think so, but give me a moment, kid," Charles said as he stood to leave. "I need to speak with someone real quick, if you don't feel okay being here, you can wait outside for me." Christian nodded and stepped out of the restaurant. The cool night air brushed against his skin as he took a deep breath, "It's seriously suffocating inside," he glanced back at the restaurant one last time, "What a strange place, I prefer not to come here again..." Just as he took a breath in relief, his peace didn't last longer and
The Lost Heir Of Sargent IT'S TIME
"Do you want me to take care of it?" Charles raised an eyebrow, Christian shook his head, "Let's not do that uncle, it's okay even if they didn't learn anything, they lost a lot, I can understand that from their words, no matter how angry I'm at them, still wanting to ruin them to extent of having nothing isn't acceptable, I can't be that heartless." "Are you sure?" Charles asked hoping Christian would change his decision, but Christian nodded his head confidently, "Yes, I'm sure, everyone deserves a second chance to repent for what they've done, they deserve too, it's okay if they learn, it's okay even if they don't, as long as they don't mess with me, I don't need to bother about them, let's ignore this here itself." Charles gently ruffled Christian's hair, "You're just as kind as your mother." Christian smiled at him, and as they got into car, Charles started the engine, while Christian asked, "That manager and this restaurant, both not normal right?" "What made you feel that?"
The Lost Heir Of Sargent YOU MUST FIRST KNOW ABOUT OUR ORIGIN
"Prepared for what?" Christian looked kind of confused, "Are we going to do something or what?" Lord Sargent said with a soft voice, "Let's go, if not we will be late." "Huh? Go where grandpa?" Despite Christian's confusion, none explained anything to him, they're on their way already, he is just following behind them like a puppy who is afraid of getting lost.They're not getting into cars or anything else, just on their feet walking right within the estate keeping him clueless making it hard to figure out, the Sargent estate was vast-too vast for Christian to have explored all of it yet. Even after many weeks of staying there, the place still held so many unfamiliar corners, rooms that seemed untouched, and corridors that whispered of history far older than he could understand.But nothing could have prepared him for what was about to happen that evening.Lord Sargent had told him very little, just giving small clarification about going somewhere, but the way he said it made it
The Lost Heir Of Sargent SHOULD I ACCEPT THIS AS MY FATE?
"Solaris?" the weight of that name is heavy, it rang familiar in his ears, stirring something deep within Christian.Like a whisper at the edge of his mind, something he should remember but couldn't quite grasp."Isn't it a place I asked you before, Grandpa?" He asked with a confused face, not understanding why his grandfather brought up that name now, when previously he didn't say anything no matter how much he insisted on knowing about that place."Yes," Lord Sargent nodded. "It is the birthplace of everything. Our bloodline, our legacy... our power."Christian's brows furrowed. "You're saying this isn't just a rich family with a long history?"Liliana chuckled softly. "Chrissy, the Sargents aren't just wealthy, we are one of the oldest and most powerful bloodlines in existence.""Powerful how? Superpowers?" Christian asked, crossing his arms.Lord Sargent gestured towards the strange objects around them. "Yes, the powers which normal people feel difficult to understand but too norm
The Lost Heir Of Sargent I'M READY!
"You might also become a Guardian of Solaris just like your mother," Lord Sargent said with a gentle smile looking at Christian who is a spitting image of his daughter.Christian turned to him, confusion clouding his features. "Guardians? What does that mean? What's the role of a Guardian?" Liliana and Charles exchanged an unreadable glance before Lord Sargent continued."Protectors, Guardians are protectors of this place Chris, your mother was one of the few who had access to the realm of Solaris, since it's not a place for everyone and a place only the awakened can reach." The word ‘awakened’ stirred something deep inside Christian as he remembered Ezra's words.The strange energy he had felt within himself for weeks-the inexplicable strength, the heightened senses, the nightmares that felt like memories-everything suddenly seemed connected."Why didn't anyone tell me before about this?" He asked, his voice low but edged with something sharp more than curiosity, "No matter how man
The Lost Heir Of Sargent I'M A TRUE SARGENT
"Don't be nervous, Chrissy," Liliana tried to cheer him after looking at his pale face, Christian forced an awkward smile, "is it obvious?"Liliana nodded her head, Christian chuckled nervously, "well, I can't help..." Liliana gently rubbed Christian's back, "It's okay, everything will be fine." Soon, the golden door that had stood like a sentinel at the heart of the chamber suddenly shimmered, the constellations etched into its surface rearranging one final time before dissolving into light. In its place, something else showed up, it's an ornate mirror, tall and attractive, its frame of obsidian entwined with delicate golden vines that pulsed faintly, like veins carrying some ancient energy giving familiar vibes with an earlier golden door.The chamber fell quite all of a sudden sending nervous shivers in everyone's spine.Even the golden veins on the walls dimmed slightly, as if holding their breath.Christian stared at the mirror, and his heart pounded so hard that it's almost a
The Lost Heir Of Sargent WHO AM I REALLY?
"Second trial?" Christian stood with renewed confidence after shattering the illusions of the first trial. His legs were still unsteady, but his spirit sparkled brighter than ever. He could feel it, the determined fire inside him, finally no longer flickering in doubt.Liliana helped him steady himself with a gentle hand on his arm, her eyes glittering with pride and lingering worry."You good?" She asked quietly, "Is everything okay? You're not injured anywhere, are you?" Christian nodded, brushing dust from his pants. "I think I'm okay aunt." She fussed over his dusty hair. "Ugh, look at you completely messy!""It's okay, aunt," he smiled at her as she is wiping off dust from his face.Charles didn’t say anything but gave him a short nod of acknowledgment. Lord Sargent, as always, was composed, but Christian saw something shift in his eyes, pride.Then, with no warning, the chamber changed once again keeping all of them anxious for a couple of minutes.The golden veins in the w

AFTER ALL GE IS YOUR NEPHEW
"Why would I even hurt him?" Rosaline got offended by Charles's hurtful words, "I might've acted in rash out of anger because of what I've seen just after opening my eyes, that doesn't mean I'm heartless enough to hurt a person who helped me." Gulping hard the yelp in her throat, she said, "I'm already feeling guilty after seeing him in this condition, do you really have to speak like this with me?" "Is it the same Rosaline I knew?" Charles felt inwardly in shock, "Why is she acting so emotional? Is she for real?" However he didn't speak anything further after listening to her, and allowed her to get closer to Christian.The room had fallen into an uneasy silence after the exchange of conversation in between Charles and Rosaline.While she stood rooted in place, her eyes fixed on Christian’s unconscious form lying on the bed she had just awoken from. The faint glow of the golden sigil on her chest had long faded, but the weight of what it represented pressed heavily on her.No one
IS THIS HOW YOU'RE GOING TO TREAT YOUR SAVIOUR?
"Uncle, do you really think I’d assault a sick woman?" Christian asked, his voice still hoarse with exhaustion, but frustration is evident in both his face and voice.Rosaline threw the covers off and stood abruptly from the bed. "Sick woman? Who are you calling sick? I was just sleeping, you brat!" Christian scoffed and crossed his arms at her foolishness still not accepting her condition, "Sleeping? Excuse me, for how many years now? If you don't believe in a brat like me, ask your biological father the one standing beside you..." Rosaline blinked in confusion, and turned to her father in disbelief. "Dad? What nonsense is this guy speaking?" Charles stepped forward, placing a steady hand on Christian’s shoulder. "He’s not lying, Rosaline… you’ve been lying on this bed unconscious for the past three years, and today only you woke up for the first time after three years." Lord Valemire nodded his head agreeing with Charles's words, "It’s true, Rose, you collapsed from some unknown
AM I DREAMING OR IS IT REAL?
"I don't know what I did, I'm tired as hell," Christian sighed wiping off the sweat from his forehead, Ezra chuckled hearing to him but still beaming with pride because of Christian's selflessness and efforts to save a complete stranger.The room was quiet again, as neither of them spoke.Christian remained seated near Rosaline’s bedside, the faint sound of his own heartbeat filling the silence. The black smoke had disappeared after the purification pill took effect, but his relief didn’t last long.A sudden wave of thick, inky darkness began curling around Rosaline once more, moving like a serpent seeking its prey.Ezra’s voice immediately reached Christian, "It’s returning, her energy is too weak to hold off the evil energy, the curse is eating away at her from within, and trying to corrupt her soul..." Christian frowned rubbing his temples. "But I already gave her the purification pill, what more do I do? Any spell?" Ezra sighed, his tone filled with urgency. “One pill isn’t eno
ARE YOU READY TO TAKE RISK FOR HER?
"Mr. Charles, Master wants to meet you," a guard announced, bowing respectfully at the doorway, "He is waiting for you in his study." Charles turned to Christian with a conflicted glance, the guard informed, "Master wants only you to meet him, Mr. Charles, he said young master Christian can wait in madam Rosaline's room till you come back for him." "Ummm... But, my nephew," Charles hesitated, and Christian who knew this is the opportunity for him to be alone with Rosaline has said, "It's okay uncle, I can wait here till you come back, so, don't worry about me and go to meet Mr. Valemire." Charles nodded and caressed Christian's hair, "I think it's better for you to wait inside the room itself, I’ll be back as soon as possible, stay here only till I come back." Christian nodded quietly like an obedient child.Charles then looked at the maid standing nearby. "He’s a bit shy around strangers, he'll be staying in Rosaline’s room till I return, please look after him." The maid blinked
SHE IS INSIDE
"Ezra, can you pull that curtain away?" Christian groaned sleepily not wanting his sleep to be disturbed, while Ezra sighed, "It's already morning Chris, day by day you're becoming lazy." With a huff, Christian got up and sat, "Ms. Thalia isn't here, at least at times like this, am I not supposed to be happy and enjoying?" "You can," Ezra said with a smile, "but you need to wake up too from the sleep, you can't be sleeping whole day..." Christian shook his head, "Last night, I've been thinking Ezra." "Thinking? What?" Ezra looked confused.Christian said, "Today, let's go and meet Ms. Rosaline." "Huh? Are you sure?" Christian nodded, "yes, whole night I've been thinking about that only, finally I took a decision, if we wanted to do something, why we should delay it? Let's go there..." "Do you think you're their son-in-law?" Ezra rolled his eyes, "It's not as easy as you think to go there whenever you wants and to leave when you wanted to, you need permission for both going and
ISN'T IT FAMILIAR TO YOU?
"I didn't mean that," Liliana shook her head. "They've tried everything, every physician, alchemist, enchanter, and healer, worth their name, but they couldn't even find out what's wrong with her."Christian was surprised to hear that, and immediately, he remembered about his uncle, "Wait... What about uncle Charles? He is named as a miracle doctor who can save anyone, even a dying person can be saved by uncle, why didn't he try to help her? Do we have any issues with them?" "No, Chris," Liliana gently placed her hand on Christian's hand, "Both of our families are so close to each other for decades, in fact Rosaline is a very good person, she even saved my life once, out of that gratitude, I took Charles to their home hoping he can help her, even Charles attempted to heal her for me." Christian straightened with an anxious face. "And?" "He failed." Her voice was quiet now, threaded with frustration. Christian looked surprised after hearing to Liliana, as far as he heard everyone p
WHERE IS SHE NOW?
"Where are you going at this hour?" Ezra asked, looking at Christian who is walking out, Christian said calmly, "Ummm... I'm going to the library...." Ezra scratched his head with a clueless face, "Library? At this hour? Are you crazy?" "No, I'm not," Christian said turning on the torch in his mobile, "I couldn't sleep, so I can't just lie down and do nothing, so I want to take a walk, rather than going here and there, I just want to the manor library to find books related to Valemire family." Ezra couldn't say no to Christian, so silently followed behind.Christian slowly made his way towards the manor library without making a sound, as he doesn't want to disturb anyone late in that night."Did you ever went to that library?" Ezra asked, Christian shook his head, "No, I just got to know directions to that library through James, but this is the first time, I'm going there...." Ezra hummed, "So, you knew nothing about this library?" "No, do you know anything?" Christian asked with
YOU THINK SOMEONE DID?
"Chris," Amelia gently tapped on Christian's hand, "Are you okay? Why did you keep your face like that? Still thinking about your grandfather's words?" Christian mumbled out of hesitation, "I'm scared... I'm worried too, that I might not be able to keep up with the expectations you all have on me, what if I failed? What if I...." "You're thinking too much, Chrissy," Liliana laughed, as she couldn't handle the serious look on Christian's face, "Do you even know what Charles had done when Ed has asked him to handle a meeting with foreign delegates?" Christian looked curious to know, Liliana shared the rest of the story, "Ed gave all the details but this man messed up, he read out something else rather than the he is supposed to discuss, he spoke about financial report as if they're in the company as an auditor, what should we do with this guy?" Everyone burst into laughter including Christian, Betty said, "Even Ed was nervous, because he is supposed to work under Lord Sargent, the g
THAT'S VERY DIPLOMATIC!
"So, what are you planning to do now?" Ezra asked, tilting his head in genuine curiosity as Christian stood by the window, eyes fixed on the pale morning sky.Christian rolled his eyes so hard he nearly saw his brain. "Salsa dance, wanna join? Maybe I think, you're already an expert..." Ezra snorted, laughter bubbling up. "What a sarcastic guy! Just like his mother."Christian spun around, with a sarcastic tone, "My mom would be proud of me. You know, she loved a good twirl while we played around, and guess what, when I saw her fight, she twirled in the same way sealing that gate, and dodging shadow beasts, my mom is good at everything." Ezra flopped onto a nearby armchair, one of the fluffiest in the room, and folded his arms. "You’re practically a fountain of levity this morning." Christian raised an eyebrow. "Levity? I was thinking more along the lines of a snark tornado, but yes, levity works." He paced, calmly looking around, "Maybe I could start by writing a strongly worded
