As soon as Benjamin appeared outside the White Palace, the media cameras quickly captured him hugging Emily.
For a moment, the whole world was cheering for Benjamin and Emily, and this scene would be used as Benjamin's signature song in the future.
"Emily?" When a soldier saw Emily, he rubbed his eyes in disbelief and exclaimed in surprise.
Emily, who was nervously hugging Benjamin's neck because there were too many strangers around, heard this familiar voice. She turned to look at the soldier who called out and asked softly with a dazed look in her eyes, "Dad?"
"Emily Kyle?" The soldier asked again after seeing her clearly. "God, I'm Duke Kyle, your father."
Emily, who had not seen her father for a few years, looked at Duke in disbelief, "Daddy?"
"Yes, baby, I'm Daddy, God," Duke quickly took out a picture frame pendant necklace from his clothes and showed Emily's picture to the confused crowd.
"I'm Emily's dad, I'm Emily's dad," Duke explained incoherently.
After seeing the picture clearly, everyone believed that Duke was indeed Emily's father.
Rickard, the black man beside Duke, slapped him on the shoulder, "Buddy, we've worked together for three years and you've never told me that you have a daughter."
Sunday quickly reported to William, "Sir, these two are the Delta Squad Leaders who helped the Black and White Specter clean up the clues at the Ancestor Crossbow Island."
After being reminded by Sunday, William remembered watching a video in his memory. Duke did seem to be someone who had helped before.
Looking at Duke and Rickard, William could not help but wonder if these two guys were the two main characters in "The Rise of Cobra".
Although Duke looked thinner now, the more William looked at him, the more he felt that he was the soldier called Duke.
He could not help but have a strange thought. He did not expect Duke to help him out of fear of trouble, and he also saved his daughter unknowingly.
Unfortunately, even though Emily recognized Duke, she had not interacted with him for a long time. In the six-year-old Emily's heart, her father did not give her a sense of security as compared to Benjamin and William.
So after looking at Duke, Emily turned her head and leaned on Benjamin's shoulder, ignoring Duke who wanted to hug her.
"Alright, the crisis hasn't come into contact yet." The delta commander who came along looked at Duke and Rickard and directly ordered.
"Duke, you and Rickard stay here to protect Mr. Barrel. The rest of you, follow me downstairs and clean up all the bandits. If possible, rescue the hostages directly."
"Understood. Thank you, sir."
Duke, who missed his daughter, was not in the mood to fight at this time. Of course, he was willing to stay and protect his daughter, and the black man, Rickard, was also not dissatisfied.
Just like that, William, Benjamin, Banning, Duke, Rickard, and Little Emily stayed on the roof of the white palace.
The other deltas began to clear out the bandits.
After a few minutes, a gunfight inevitably broke out. For a moment, gunshots rang out violently, and there were even explosions from time to time.
This scared Little Emily. She pursed her lips and reached out for William to hug her.
William only hesitated for a few seconds before Emily began to cry. William, who had never taken care of a child before, hurriedly took Emily.
After coaxing for a long time, the little guy was still trembling in fear. William had no choice but to use his body to block everyone's line of sight and cast a healing spell on Emily's back.
The magic quickly took effect, but what surprised William was that Emily seemed to be very talented in magic.
The effect of the healing spell used on her was surprisingly good, even too good. It was as if the shackles on her body had been unlocked.
The magical energy that was everywhere actually slowly flew in and out of her body.
For a moment, William suspected that if he taught the little guy meditation, she might soon become a mage apprentice.
At the same time that William was surprised, he hesitated whether or not he should teach Emily magic knowledge. However, this idea didn't stay in his mind for long before it was rejected.
No matter how cute, smart, and sensible the little guy was, he wasn't his child. Who knew what unpredictable things would happen in the future if he taught Emily.
A six-year-old child didn't have the shrewdness and shrewdness of an adult. If he was exposed, William, the initiator, would definitely be in trouble.
Unless he could find traces of other people using magic in this world in the future, as an egoist, he would never teach his trump card to anyone else.
Emily's reaction was very straightforward. Just as he had worried, the little girl closed her eyes and felt for a moment. She then hugged William's neck and whispered, "Mr. Devonshire, why do I feel like there are so many little lights flying around?"
"Is there?" Looking at Emily's clear eyes, William couldn't help but cast a dispel spell on Emily.
"Don't go, don't go." Emily felt the magical energy leave her. "No, please don't leave me."
"Emily, what's wrong?" Duke, who had been paying attention to his daughter, hurried over and asked with concern, "Baby, are you feeling unwell?"
"No, no, go away. Dad, you're scaring the little elves. Go away."
Emily was simple-minded and didn't understand why the magical energy left, so she directly thought of Duke as the culprit.
"It's fine, it's fine. The little guy might be hungry and hallucinating because of low blood sugar." William hurriedly comforted Emily and turned to explain to Duke, who was full of regret.
He then whispered to the fuming Emily, "The little lights might have left because they don't want Emily to tell others. As long as you keep it a secret, they might come back soon."
"Really?" Emily asked with glowing eyes.
"Maybe, we'll know once we wait patiently. But, Emily, are you hungry? Let's eat something. Maybe the little lights will come back soon after we're full."
"Alright." Emily tilted her head and thought for a moment before whispering, "Then I want to eat something. Also, Mr. Devonshire, you'll help Emily keep it a secret, right?"
"Of course, of course I'll keep it a secret for Emily." William nodded with a smile and dispelled the spell on his hand.
He asked Duke for a special forces chocolate bar and tore open the packaging to pass it to Emily.
In order to let her favorite little lights come back sooner, Emily took the chocolate bar and started crunching on it.
After eating a few bites, she closed her eyes and sensed for a few seconds. After eating a few more bites, she sensed for a few more seconds. After finishing the chocolate bar, a smile quickly appeared on Emily's face.
She happily whispered in William's ear, "Mr. Devonshire, I feel those little lights again. They're really back."
