"I haven't seen Dani in a long time. Too bad, it's rare that I have time to come." Garon shook his head. "Forget it, I'm here to see how my cousin is doing. If there's anything you need help with, just let me know."
Sophie looked at the once disobedient and willful brat in front of her. In the past, Achaia was addicted to gambling and was charmed by that bad woman Aquarius. Unknowingly, the once bad brat had matured and was able to support the entire Trejons family on his own.
"I don't need any help here. It's not easy for you either, the family's situation isn't looking good right? "
"Err …" Garon rubbed his nose awkwardly. The family's situation was indeed not looking good. He was the type that didn't like to manage trivial matters and would accidentally forget about the family.
"I'm working on it." He lowered his voice and replied.
"I believe you can do it." Sophie Hathaway patted Garon's shoulder. The two of them chose to forget the awkward matter of their engagement.
"Let me introduce, this is sister's good friend Sylvia." Sophie Hathaway turned her attention to Sylvia who was waiting at the side. "She's a little older than you, you have to call her sister."
"Sister Sylvia." Garon didn't have the valiant aura of a team leader at all, his mouth immediately called out without any hindrance. Looking at the side, Kid's mouth was agape. Comparing the two images that were too different, he had an inconceivable feeling of insanity.
"As expected of Sophie's cousin, both of you are so beautiful!" Sylvia generously approached Garon, circled around him and sized him up carefully. "Wow, you have a great body! Your muscles are not bad too. " She reached out and pinched Garon's arm without hesitation, the texture of his muscles made her gasp.
Sophie helplessly shook her head at Garon and smiled bitterly.
"Alright Sylvia, stop fooling around. This is my cousin Cia, oh, he changed his name now, Garon. "
Garon speechlessly looked at this long-legged beauty, circling around him like she was sizing up a rare animal.
"Alright alright, don't you still have things to do? Hurry up and do what you have to do! "Sophie stopped her friend's increasingly unscrupulous actions." Hurry up! "
"Ugh … Sophie, you don't want your best friend anymore now that you have a cousin?" Sylvia pretended to be pitiful as if no one wanted her.
"Don't you still have to work? Go! "Sophie couldn't help but pinch Sylvia lightly.
"Aiya! It hurts. "Sylvia was pushed out of the door by Sophie, and only then did the living room quiet down.
She turned around and realized that there was a small, child-like man in black beside Garon. This black-clothed man's presence was too weak. She had unconsciously ignored him just now.
"This is?"
"He's my colleague. He's currently working with me in King's City." Garon casually introduced him, not intending to explain further. The child's origin was mysterious, and was most likely related to totem users. As a normal person, Sophie Hathaway was involved, which was not a good thing for her.
Hathaway didn't ask further. She sat down and casually chatted with Garon about her recent experiences.
She originally wanted to ask Garon, but she didn't expect Garon to unknowingly ask her about her recent experiences.
After she returned to King's City, she continued to work in the Royal Guards. Recently, she completed a mission and was promoted to Captain. Her daily life was unusually simple. However, she spent a lot of time recently, so no one cared about Dani. She was a little crazy, hanging out with some rascals all day.
"You have to help me teach her a lesson. This girl doesn't even listen to me now! She even had a big fight with me yesterday. It's because I don't give her enough pocket money. "Sophie frowned slightly when she talked about Dani. "You guys used to play together. She might listen to what you say. I can't help it. "
"It's okay. That girl is currently in her rebellious phase. She'll be fine after a while. Wasn't I the same back then? I still have a lot of poems from back then stored at home. "Garon couldn't help but laugh.
Time passed little by little as he chatted with his cousin.
It was a pity that his cousin didn't have the qualifications to be a totem user. Furthermore, in the modification experiment, the mortality rate was too high and the pain was too great. Without the control of the peak secret technique, even if she was modified, she would only have the life of a cannon fodder.
It was best to live a peaceful life as a normal person.
Listening to his cousin talk about her life, it was peaceful and gentle. There was no fighting or killing, no scheming. There were only a few small conflicts and conflicts between family and friends. After a few days, everything would go back to normal. Most of the time, after a tiring day, her biggest wish was to eat a delicious meal, then take a comfortable bath and have a good sleep.
This kind of warm life, compared to his own life where he was constantly in the midst of killing and scheming, was much better.
Garon listened to his cousin's interesting stories and couldn't help but recall his own life on Earth. It was the same back then, just as ordinary, just as gentle.
"Sister Sophie, actually, I have something important to tell you this time."
"Something important?" Sophie blinked her eyes.
"If, and I'm saying if, something big happens in the Kingdom, I want you to head to this address immediately." Garon took out the note that he had written earlier and handed it to Sophie.
Sophie took it and glanced at it.
'White Phoenix Forest Academy?'
"Yes." Garon nodded solemnly. "You must remember. If there's a problem, you must bring Dani here immediately. "
Looking at Garon's solemn instructions, Sophie seemed to understand the importance of this matter. She also nodded solemnly. "Understood, I will."
White Phoenix Forest Academy was one of the few places in the Kingdom that hadn't fallen into chaos. This was because the dean was one of the two Grand Dukes in the Kingdom, Prynne's grandfather. He was one of the three strongest people in the Kovitan Empire.
If Alric was assassinated successfully, then this place would definitely be one of the places that wouldn't fall into chaos.
There were more than ten academies of various sizes in the Kingdom. White Phoenix Forest Academy wasn't very eye-catching because no one knew that its dean was one of the Grand Dukes. This academy's performance had always been very low key. Even the Obscuro Society didn't pay much attention to this place. No one would have thought that this academy had set up an extremely powerful Combined Tactic Formation.
If his cousin was in trouble, she would be able to enter here and save Garon the trouble of protecting her.
This time, he came here mainly to explain this matter.
The sky gradually darkened.
Sophie was busy preparing a sumptuous dinner to entertain Garon who rarely came over.
There were some precious foie gras and bird breasts on the table. There was also a large pot of fresh fish soup. These were rare delicacies in the Kingdom where resources were scarce.
There was also a wedge-shaped chicken surrounded by vegetables.
"This meat is a type of mutated monster meat that His Majesty just promoted. It's one of the few types of meat that everyone can eat. Try it? "Sophie picked up a piece of golden meat for Garon. Then she scooped a spoonful of thick black salad dressing and poured it over the chicken.
Garon took a bite. It was indeed delicious and tender, but the aroma was too strong and slightly stuffy.
"Aren't you going to leave some food for Dani?" He glanced at the kid who was eating heartily. This guy's stomach was like a bottomless pit. Every time he forked a piece of meat, he would finish it in a few bites. However, Sophie didn't pay much attention to him. It was obvious that the strange invisible ability was at work again.
"I've left some other food. It's fine." Sophie smiled.
At this time, the sky gradually darkened.
When the three of them were halfway through their meal, a muffled sound came from the door on the first floor. It seemed like someone had come in and closed the door.
"Sister! What smells so good?! "A crisp little girl's voice came from downstairs.
"It's Dani. She's back." Sophie frowned. "You have to talk to her. If she continues like this, I'm afraid she'll go astray."
"Alright. Leave it to me. I haven't seen her in a long time. " It was rare for Garon to enjoy such a peaceful life. Unknowingly, his mood had completely relaxed. He had a feeling that he didn't want to disturb this tranquility.
Soon, a young girl with shoulder-length black hair walked up the stairs. This girl was about eighteen or nineteen years old. She wore a tight white shirt that exposed her navel. Coupled with extremely short black leather pants, it revealed a pair of white and slender legs.
Originally, this outfit was just a little spicy. It wasn't much. However, after being modified by this girl, her aura completely changed.
The long sleeve on the left side of her shirt was directly cut off, revealing her white arm. There was even a black and complicated tactic rune tattooed on it. This rune didn't have any totem light waves. It was obvious that it was just a simple imitation tattoo.
The girl's pretty little face was painted with some heavy makeup, giving off a mature vibe. All five fingers on her right hand wore fake ruby rings. The rings were obviously imitating the tactic runes. There were many strange and beautiful patterns engraved on the rings. There were also some patterns that even Garon didn't recognize. Obviously, it was just a random design by a small merchant to increase the sense of strangeness.
The girl puffed out her chest and rushed up the stairs in a pair of black leather boots. Instantly, she saw the two extra people at the dining table. The child was unconsciously ignored by her. Her gaze immediately fell on Garon.
"Acacia!?"
"Call me brother!" Sophie's face instantly turned serious.
"What brother? Isn't he just a little older than me? Sister, I don't have any money. Give me some pocket money. "Dani pouted and walked to Sophie's side and extended her hand.
"No!" Sophie turned her head and ignored her. "I only gave you fifty silver rumbs yesterday. You've already spent it so quickly?"
Fifty silver rumbs were equivalent to five hundred copper rumbs. In the current Kingdom, a thousand silver rumbs were equivalent to one gold rumb. To a totem user, this was nothing. However, to a normal person, fifty silver rumbs were enough to cover the expenses of a family of three for a month.
Garon did some calculations in his mind. It was about five hundred to eight hundred silver rumbs on Earth. To a child, this amount of money would be spent in a day. No wonder his cousin who had a high salary was so angry.
"Isn't it just a small amount of money? Raffaele has three hundred silver rumbs to spend every week. "Dani was getting impatient." Sister, are you going to give it to me or not? "
"No!" Sophie replied coldly. "If you dare to steal things from our house and sell them, I'll break your legs!" Her voice went up an octave.
"Then you can try breaking my legs!" Dani shouted back without backing down.
"Alright, alright. It's just a small amount of money. There's no need to cause a conflict between sisters."
A hundred silver rumb note was gently placed on Dani's hand.
Garen chimed in with a smile.
"Wow!" Dani whistled. "Not bad Cia. I haven't seen you for a long time. You've become rich now?" She flicked the note and her mood instantly improved.
Just as Sophie was about to speak, she saw Garon give her a look, meaning that he would take care of everything.
She had no choice but to say nothing.
"It's about time. I still have some things to take care of. I'll come to see Sister Sophie next time." Garon stood up and said gently.
"Alright then. Come visit when you have time. You're always welcome here." Sophie nodded and stood up.
Garon and the child were sent downstairs by Sophie. Just as they walked out of the front yard of the house, Dani Hathaway ran out with them.
The little girl rolled her eyes.
"I'll send them off!"
Sophie was slightly stunned. She did not expect her sister to be so sensible. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Dani running in the direction Garon left.
On second thought, Sophie immediately understood what this girl was thinking.
This girl must have thought that Garon was a rich guy.
She was furious and wanted to chase after them. However, when she thought of Garon's last look, he seemed to have some ideas. She hesitated.
"Forget it. Let's see what Cia has."
