CHAPTER 84 CLIFFORD FAMILY (4)

Eros: "Your Ancestor Emperor Charles sent us here to see if you're okay or not. It's a promise we must fulfill no matter what."

Katherine heard what Eros said and felt a little surprised. When she heard from her son that some people wanted to see her, she was very afraid.

She thought that these people are the assassins that killed her family 20 years ago and wanted to finish her and make the family completely disappear.

She told her son that they will leave the city in the morning as she was afraid that in the night, they will try to kill her.

Just when She was about to go out from the Shop with her son, 4 black hooded men came and entered the Shop. Katherine understood what was about to happen at that moment.

She took her son and run upstairs. Unfortunately, She was only a low leveled mage, Hardly at the 2nd level so she couldn't Mana that much in spells.

She only used the Mana and spiritual strength in Making weapons. The men took Leo and then cut her in the shoulder.

They let her swim in her own pool of blood and used their strongest attacks to guarantee her death. Fortunately, Eros and the others came just after the assassins left.

If they came just 5 minutes later, she could've lost her life. Both Sophia, Star and Eros healed her.

Eros was able to stop the blood loss and Star healed the internal injuries while Sophia gave her a pill to heal her shattered bones.

Katherine thanked them and asked them about who sent them. Eros answered her and this made Kathrine sigh.

She then told them about what happened to her this morning. She knew that they are very good people.

Sophia explained to her about Emperor Charles and his wish. After Kathrine heard all of this, she looked very surprised and her face. showed that she knew something.

Katherine: "Sigh, Who thought that the bedtime story father told me is true. We're really The descendants of the Great mage of the Era. He always told us that it was a secret that nobody should know. All these 20 years, I always thought why The Yodatya royal family will do such a thing. Why would they be interested in a small family that ruled over the old capital? We ruled under them without any thought of betraying them. Turns out that because of our blood, huh?".

Sophia: "Yodatya royal family!!!!???".

Katherine: "Yes, The crown prince came himself that night and gave the order. He gathered all my family and beheaded them. My servant sacrificed himself to let me run. I used a secret passage".

Katherine smiled as she looked at them and at the same time started crying. Eros who saw that came and started wiping her tears.

Eros: (Such beautiful can't cry. I will not forgive them).

[AN: Enter, THE MILF].

Kathrine didn't think that They will believe her. After all, why would they be interested in a little family but now after 20 years, she discovered why.

Aquila: "This also explains many things. Only the royal family can kill a whole noble family and no one will know about it".

Eros: "For now, we need to rescue the Kid. He's somewhere in the city. They must not have gone far. I and Aquila will go after them. Sophia and the others, return to the Ship. Pay Edgar and go out of the city".

Sophia: "What will you do exactly??".

Eros: "They must have gone out of the city to take him outside the city to the new capital. Katherine said that it's only been 45 minutes. Aquila will go flying after them to locate them. I will go and follow them in the Land. I just want to know, why would they take him and not you".

Katherine: "I don't know really. They just came, slashed and destroyed all the house and cut me then they took my son".

Eros: "Well, it doesn't matter. You take whatever you want with you to the Ship. Lina, give her one of those spatial bags. Take all your belongings and return to the Ship. Try and go south. Make sure to reach us in an hour, okay?".

Sophia, Saya, Star, Lisa: "Yes".

Katherine looked at them and started crying again as she tried to rise from her bed.

Katherine: "Thank you. I am really grateful for you helping me and my Son".

____________________________

Swoosh Swoosh Swoosh.

In the sky, you could see a shadow of a creature flying very fast that people could only perceive his shadow. He was none other than Aquila.

It's been 10 minutes since he moved from the Shop. He is flying now besides The south gate so he can find The Kidnappers.

On the other hand, Eros who activated Sunshine using Rhitta is running in the Main street towards The gate.

He activated Sunshine using His divine Axe so He can have enough power and also have enough control without destroying the city.

[AN: His control over his power with The Axe is better than using the power of the Sun because the Power of The Sun is wild and can endanger people around him. Compared to that, The heat inside the Axe can be controlled better and so he can't put other people in danger. He also can keep his transformation ON like in the night].

Both of them are now tracking them using their soul power and find any trace. They spread all the soul power towards the gate and outside. (also called Spiritual energy).

Finally, they noticed a little blue flying Ship. It was very different from all the Ships they saw till now. Both of them are sure that this Ship must be the one the Kidnappers used.

Aquila, Eros: "Found you".

Eros suddenly raised his power without any stop. Eros prepared himself and suddenly jumped and reached the Top of the wall in seconds.

Boom Boom Boom.

Random person A: "Ahhhhhhhhh, what happened? The earth suddenly split and a huge crater appeared".

Random person B: "I think I saw a young man standing there. He then yelled 'Found you' and disappeared".

Random Person C: "The guards must be coming right now, let's go".

Aquila, on the other hand, raised his speed and went directly towards The Ship.

[AN: For the theme song, it's Escanor theme song from Season 2]

Eros: "Cruel Sun".

Eros jumped from the wall and yelled the name of his attack. He then directed his paLm towards the ground.

The Sun flame ball appeared on his hand and he then jumped above it. Eros jumped above it and he started surfboarding the winds going directly towards the Ship.

He then reached Aquila. Aquila who seemed very worried about the kid and this showed on his face.

Eros: "It seems like you care for the Kid, Aquila".

Aquila: "Ah, No. In reality, I think that his talent is very good and that he has a bright future ahead of him. He doesn't need to die just because of his family past".

Eros: "Yeah, but you must remember. This world is a place where only The strong can be the one to decide. No matter how talented he is, his talent isn't gonna save him".

Aquila didn't say anything and just looked at the Ship. He didn't like to show it but because he was impressed by the Kid during their little battle, he didn't him to die like this.

Eros: "But that is also another reason. Only the powerful decide everything and so we decided that we're going to save the kid".

Aquila: "hahaha, you're right Sir Eros".

Aquila: (Kid you better be alright. Don't do anything that will make you risk your life. Just sit there and we're gonna save you).

______________________

[On the Ship].

Person 1: "Hahahaha, who thought that it will be such an easy mission. I mean, the crown prince told us to investigate the whereabouts of Kathrine Clifford just by a whim. Who thought that she survived and even had a kid".

Person 2: " Fortunately, we killed her easily and even took her son. The prince didn't think that she will have a kid and we don't know what to do with him".

Person 3: "Let's just take him to the crown prince and he will tell us what to do hahaha. Now, we will get a big reward and have enough money to live for the rest of our lives".

[AN: you idiot, he will just kill you to bury the secret. It seems like he didn't read many novels otherwise, he would've known such an obvious thing].

suddenly, they heard a voice coming from the sky and saying with a mocking tone.

Eros: "You idiots. He will just kill all of you to bury such an important secret. He will never give you anything. What do you think Aquila??".

Aquila: "I totally agree with this. The crown prince will be an idiot and a cripple if he let lowlife people like you survive".

[AN: You see, I told you. Any man who read web novels will think like that. Even Aquila who's from a different world know that]

The three persons looked at the two people flying in the air. One of them seemed to be a magic beast, eagle type. The other one is surprisingly a human who seemed to be flying thanks to a flame ball.

The three didn't understand how Eros isn't burning. On the contrary, it seems like he is just on a little chair.

Eros: "Well, Let's begin the punishment".
