Fernando was in his office, making preparations for his trip. It had been more than 7 years since he had assumed his responsibilities in the capital. When he was about to discuss the last document, he felt something approaching at high speed. Fernando's sonar expanded. He saw Felicia's flying ark approaching. He was surprised. Why would she use her ark to travel such a short distance? Fernando sensed who was in the ark.
When Fernando saw inside a frown appeared on his forehead, in the ark he could feel 7 people, in particular two were very fighting and one of the people fighting was John his son the other was a lady he did not know.
With just a thought, Fernando's figure flashed and he disappeared from the office to appear outside Venhorst Castle , in the next second, Catarina's figure also appeared by his side.
The flying ark descended from the air and floated a meter above the ground, Felicia jumped out carrying John in her arms.
Alex, Isa and her family came on their own from the flying ark, Isa helped her sick mother along with her aunt, the commander who was trapped in the earth prison, with a swing of Felicia 's hand , the commander flew out of the ark and crashed to the ground.
When Fernando and Catarina saw this scene, it was as if their hearts were stabbed, it was a shock for both of them, Catarina took John from Felícia in her arms and a tear ran down her face.
-What happened?
Fernando was furious, unable to control his killing intent, a pressure fell upon everyone present, Alex, the commander, Isa and her family all fainted, they could not resist the killing intent of a superior being, even if that killing intent was not directed at them. Even Felicia was a little scared.
—Who was it?
It was just a question, but when Felicia saw her brother's eyes, she felt like she was being sentenced to death.
—Keto
Fernando called, but at some point he had already arrived, when Ceto felt the anger and never thirst for blood in his lord's words he shuddered, he in all these years that he served the Venhorst family , even on the battlefield he had felt so much thirst for blood coming from Fernando, he did not delay in responding.
—My lord?
—Bring the healers to John's room.
Before leaving, Ceto sensed Alex's condition through his sonar, when he concluded that everything was fine with Alex, he followed his master's orders.
Catarina didn't pay attention to her surroundings, she simply entered the castle and made her way to John's room. Fernando held back his desire for blood a little , he looked at Felicia with great anger, he almost struck her, if it were someone else Fernando would have already attacked and asked only after giving vent to his anger.
— Felicia , what are you hearing? Who did this? How come you didn't protect him?
Felicia pointed her finger towards the commander and spoke in a trembling voice.
—He was the one who did this to John.
Fernando said just one word.
— Graviton
The commander's body floated and stood in front of Fernando, the earth prison that Felicia had made shattered, he intended to crush him using gravity, bone by bone, he would slowly crush him while extracting some information, then he would crush him completely until there was no corpse left to bury, but then he felt the evolution level of the commander who floated in front of him, he could feel that it was only a level 2 primary being, how is this possible?
Fernando gave up on the idea of crushing him to death, he waved his hand and the commander's figure crashed into the flying ark and fell to the ground, he raised his hand towards Felicia and made a grabbing gesture.
— Graviton
Without resistance, Felicia was enveloped in a gravitational field and was attracted in front of Fernando, the gravitational field was contracting, crushing Felicia's body, she did not resist because looking at Fernando she could now only feel anger, the bloodlust was not directed at her, with each word the gravitational field contracted more and more.
—Now you tell me, how? You could kill a primary being with just a look, and then you come telling me that someone at such a weak level left my son in this state, how could I accept that? After all, what do you hear?
Fernando wasn't stupid when his anger subsided a little, he soon understood everything, there was only one scenario It was possible for Felicia that a higher being would not be able to protect John from someone so weak. The anger that was about to subside a little flared up as if someone had thrown fuel on the fire.
you protecting them?
When Fernando saw that Felícia wasn't saying anything, he knew he was right.
—F* ck , what the hell were you doing, what's more important than protecting your nephew.
Fernando's sonar never left John's body, it was only making so much noise because although John looked bad none of his internal organs were hurt, he could feel that the injuries were only on the surface. In fact the baby inside the egg did a great job healing John's body from the inside out.
—F* ck . f* ck . f* ck
Fernando cursed several times and said all kinds of bad words, he undid the gravitational field and Felicia was free, the murderous intent in the air dissipated completely, after another thirty minutes of cursing all of Felicia's ancestors, which ironically were his too, he calmed down, he was still angry and worried, but now he could control it.
Only now did Fernando notice that there were a few more people with them, they were all unconscious, he only recognized Alex, a gentle spiritual energy was generated in Alex's body and the others, gradually everyone except the commander regained their senses, Fernando looked at Felicia and asked.
—Who are these people?
Felicia shook her head and said helplessly
—I don't know who they are, but John said to bring them.
The wolf family was very scared, they huddled in a corner, to them Fernando was like a madman full of rage, the worst thing was that they felt Fernando's bloodlust before they fell into unconsciousness, Isa and her aunt hugged the sick woman, she was pale, it was not known if it was from the illness or just fear or something else.
Fernando and Felicia's eyes, four pairs of sharp eyes looked at Alex at the same time. When Alex felt the questioning gaze of the two higher beings, he shivered, in fact Alex was very lucky today, he only had shabby clothes and a few scratches here and there, he just fought with the silver-level mercenaries.
When the commander arrived, Alex was only paralyzed by the dark element, when it was his turn to be tortured and eventually killed, Felicia fell from the sky, for Alex, Felicia arrived in time, John was not very lucky, he was only a fingernail away from death.
—Who are they? Felicia asked.
Alex spilled the beans, he told everything that happened from the moment they entered the city of Novo Redondo, he talked about how they met little Isa at the market and how they ended up in this situation, Fernando and Felícia listened to the whole story without interrupting Alex.
After the story Fernando sighed and many thoughts went through his head, he looked at Felícia and said.
—We're not done yet
Felicia didn't say anything, she also didn't tell what happened to her, Fernando noticed that some employees were watching the whole scene, Seto had also returned, Ceto was also a father, he was worried about Alex, his son, before even leaving the first time he used his sonar to feel the condition of his son, this calmed him , it didn't make him less worried.
—You take care of everything here, right?
Fernando pointed his finger at the wolf family and said.
—Take good care of them, they are guests of the Family, find a good place inside the castle for them, help them recover when the healers treat John, send them to take care of our guests.
Fernando was about to leave, he took a look at the family of three and spoke to Ceto.
—Prepare some clothes for them too.
Ceto picked up Alex and bent down to help the wolf family, but some maids joined him. Ceto saw that the family was a little scared, he smiled and said in a welcoming voice.
—You don't need to worry, you will be well taken care of here at Venhorst Castle , my lord and lady are kind people.
The wolf family followed Ceto and the maids, Felicia packed up her flying ark and followed Ferdinand inside, but first Ferdinand ordered two guards to take the commander to the castle prison, he wanted some answers. He didn't ask Felicia what she was doing or where she was, he wanted to see John with his own eyes, he also wanted to comfort Catherine, he left everything else to deal with later.
***
Fernando and Felicia arrived at the hallway, at the door that gave access to John's room there were two guards, when they saw their master, they opened the door and let the two in. As soon as the two entered, they saw an unexpected scene, the two healers were without any elemental power.
As soon as the two healers arrived, with Catarina's help, they bathed John and changed his clothes. When they used healing spells, something strange happened. They were high-level healing spells. They tried to restore John's vitality, but all of his vital energy was being diverted somewhere inside John's body. They used all of their elemental power. They became exhausted. It was only when they were empty that they finally stopped. It was like trying to fill an empty bucket . The amount didn't matter.
The baby inside the egg saw life energy being poured into John's body, he raised his little hand and absorbed every spell, until the healers ran out of elemental power, the baby converted it into crimson energy, and effortlessly healed John's body.
Those outside only saw the crimson energy enveloping John's entire body, all the wounds regenerated at a visible pace, now not even a single scratch could be seen, there was only a crimson glow on John's body.
—How is he?
Fernando asked, Catarina pointed with her eyes to John's body, it even seemed like he was just sleeping, when Catarina's gaze crossed Felicia's, even though she didn't say anything, Felicia understood what Catarina wanted to convey with this look.
Felicia was shocked by the situation, she saw the precarious state John was in before, but now there were no injuries left, John was just a normal person, he hadn't even stepped onto the path of evolution yet, how could he have such a high recovery rate? Felicia wanted to ask all sorts of questions, but since she was responsible for John's misfortune in some way, she decided to remain silent.
Time passed and the day gave way to night, Fernando and Felicia were having dinner in silence, Felicia told Fernando everything, she talked about the three priests, Fernando got angry, but in the end he couldn't do anything, everything was over, John was fine and Felicia was his sister, Catarina was angry in her own way, she didn't say a word to Felicia, she just gave her looks that Felicia understood, but sometimes someone's silence was worse than any kind of words of reprimand or threats.
Catarina stayed in John's room the whole time, she didn't even leave during dinner time.
***
The next morning
John opened his eyes, he saw Catarina sleeping right next to him, he saw that Catarina's eyelids were a little wrinkled, it was a sign that she hadn't slept all night, for Catarina she wouldn't get tired easily, after all she was an average peak being, she was only like that because her emotions were reflecting in her body.
John felt touched, in his past life he had lost his parents very early, he was between 5 and 6 years old when his father and mother suffered the accident that cost them both their lives, at the time his sister was very young, just 1 year and a few months old, in this life he had parents who took care of him and protected him, he was only worried about his sister on earth.
In another half month it will be 8 years since John came to this world, according to this world's calendar John was born on October 8, 2017 and now it is September 17, 2024, John wanted to take advantage of the time he still had in the Venhorst territory , Fernando his father had already warned him that as soon as he was a level 1 primary being it would be when he left for the institute.
John was now at most 2 years old, after these two years he would have to leave the Venhorst territory , seeing his mother sleeping so beautifully like that, he decided not to disturb her, he left the room without making a noise.
***
John arrived at the dining room and saw Fernando, his father, and the woman who somehow saved his life, he greeted them both.
—Good morning, dad.
When John was about to greet the woman, he discovered that he knew nothing about her. He tried to ask first, but the woman just said that she would introduce herself if Fernando didn't kill her.
Felicia, who was taking a bite of honey bread , saw John's confusion, she gave a beautiful and sweet smile, Felicia is a beautiful and attractive woman, this smile would enchant any man, John has seen countless beautiful women before, there were thousands of beautiful women just a click away on the entire internet, but the woman in front of him was a wild, scorching and dominating beauty.
—Come give your aunt a hug.
Felicia walked over and hugged John, as he was short and Felicia was a slightly tall woman, the top of John's head brushed against Felicia's full breasts, unfortunately he didn't feel the expected softness, Felicia was wearing a piece of armor that covered her breasts, John only felt the hardness of the armor.
But in John's head a word buzzed, your aunt, since when did I have an aunt? Why didn't anyone tell me anything? John thought.
—Auntie ?
Fernando smiled and introduced Felicia to John.
—Junior , this is Felícia, your aunt, she is my older sister.
When Fernando spoke the last word, Felicia almost spat blood and quickly ratified Fernando's words.
—Your father is joking, I am his younger sister.
Fernando knew that his older sister had reversed the birth order of the two, and whoever said she was the older sister would have a problem, so he gave John a wink and said with a fake cough.
—This is Felicia , my younger sister.
John found it strange, but for him the key point was the word, aunt, whether she was younger or older didn't matter to him.
