BXBX NOVEL Chapter 39 Family Talk
As the group prepared to travel back to the city, Luis addressed them with a stern expression. "Everyone, do not share anything about your experience. Even if someone becomes suspicious, you must remain silent."
Knights following Luis nodded. They were not fools to reveal a huge secret to others. If this thing is known by other forces, it will bring huge trouble and disaster.
-----
Once back in the city, Luis gave the knights a holiday for 2 days. They could meet their family and lovers, rest, and do other things in these two days.
Satisfied with their progress, Luis returned to his training routine for a few hours before heading to the library. Although the Hartmann family has been established for a short time, there were a lot of books in the library.
Luis took a deep breath, then began to read the book with a calm mind.
Night gradually passed. The stars dotted the sky.
Early the next morning, Luis opened his eyes in bed with tired eyes. He began to freshen up and had breakfast. He took out the magic stone that mother had given and gave it to Pipi to absorb.
\'Good thing we have that magic stone mine,\' Luis thought with a small smile. \'Feeding Pipi would bankrupt us otherwise.\'
He took Pipi to roam around the city. Tomorrow he will go in the Northern Wasteland Battlefield, and it will take years before he returns to this city again.
He knew his identity and enjoyed his whole day fully with Pipi. Eating from stalls, listening to the story in tea houses, and many more.
After roaming around the whole city, he made his way towards the Main Castle. He is going to meet Father and have a conversation with him.
Luis knocked on the door and entered inside without saying anything. Coming here for 8 consecutive days, he had already regarded this as his own room. Anyway, in the future, everything in this place will be his own.
"Father, I want to know how many army units you have assigned to me."
Felipe looked at Luis dead in the eye. He shook his head and sighed slowly, "You will know about it tomorrow. Liam, Biggs, Steve, Marcos..."
Luis Heart skipped a beat when he heard the name recited by his father. These were all the old guys who followed his grandfather and were now helping him in the cultivation world.
Luis looked and gulped nervously as Felipe finished speaking all the names.
Felipe looked at Luis for a moment before continuing, his voice serious.
"Everyone has their secrets, son. I don\'t need to explore yours. After all, you are my child!" Felipe began talking seriously, "But those old guys, they are the seniors who greatly contributed to the early establishment of Barony. Treat them well."
Luis nodded hearing this. His expression was very serious, he will take care of everyone around him.
"Your mother was extremely opposed for you to enter the battlefield at such a young age. I argued with your mother, and finally she accepted it."
"I believe in you, Luis. One day, you\'ll be the eagle that soars above the Hartmann Family."
Felipe Baron chuckled and said to Luis. He didn\'t question where those old guys disappeared. Instead, he encouraged him.
"I won\'t disappoint you, Father," Luis replied, standing up straighter. "I\'ll lead our family to new heights. You can trust me."
Felipe nodded, waving his hand to signal that their conversation was over.
As Luis walked out of the room, many thoughts swirled in his mind.
\'It seems Father has already noticed . Are there secret Shadow Guards to protect those old guys?\'
With his mind full of thought, he made his way to meet his mother. If he doesn\'t see her today, he will be unfilial as a son and gather resentment from the family tigress.
He quickly reached outside his mother office and knocked on the door.
"Mother, it\'s me," Luis shouted from outside the door. There was silence on the other side.
"Come in," Olivia\'s normal voice sounded after some time.
Luis opened the door and saw that her eyes were red, as if she had been crying. Luis stared at this and didn\'t know what to say.
Olivia gestured for Luis to sit. He walked forward and sat down at a loss for words.
"Do you really have to go to that place, Luis?" Olivia asked softly, breaking the silence. "You have no idea how terrible war can be"
Luis hearing this met her gaze, his resolve unwavering. "I must go, mother. I want to become stronger along with my army. In the future, I want to protect the barony and even avenge my grandfather."
At the mention of his grandfather, Olivia\'s expression changed. A smile formed on her lips. She looked at Luis closely, as if seeing something new.
Luis became unconformable as he noticed his mother\'s looks.
"You are still young to know all the truth." She said, her voice tinged with sadness in her smile. Luis noticed the tired look in her eyes and felt a wave of curiosity, but he pushed it down. Now wasn\'t the time to uncover family secrets.
"Mother, I came here to ask for some little help." Luis started speaking his true intention, hoping to shift the mood.
Olivia raised her eyebrows, signaling for him to continue.
"I hope that I can get some extra Life Potion tomorrow. At least 30 is needed," Luis said, grinning a bit sheepishly.
Life Potion is a liquid that contains a large amount of life energy that nourishes the body. It helps in awakening life seeds. If taken after awakening the life seed, it nourishes the life seed, making it stronger.
"You don\'t have to worry about this; you will get more than 50." Olivia smiled and said, not trying to remember the truth of the incident back then.
Luis\'s eyes widened in surprise. "You\'re the best, Mother! I love you much more than father."
"You can leave now. I have work to finish." Olivia dismissed Luis with a face full of happiness.
Luis walked out of the room full of smiles. He didn\'t expect he would receive so many life potions.
"I hope you can stay strong and don\'t crumble in that cruel place," Olivia, who was inside the room, whispered to herself as she stared at the closed door.
