Chapter 351: Father and Son

After spending a day without going anywhere enjoying the tournament, the crowd finally got a 6hours break. Of course, the crowd was reluctant to leave as the tournament was getting better and better by rounds. Unlike the last tournament where the participants had to find their own room which led to unnecessary battles and enmity, this time the tournament committee gave room for each participant in their own expenses.

At the moment, Michael was sitting in a lavish room. The large bed on the left side corner was neatly tied like in 5-star hotels. The room smelled of jasmine and freshness. In addition to the bed, several pieces of furniture such as a large round table, sofas, and seven feet mirrors were neatly arranged to make the room cozy yet spacious.

The golden rays of light coming from the majestic chandelier lit the room as Michael was sitting in front of the round table flaunting his muscular upper body.

“Damn it, I need to fix this before going to bed” Michael looked at the broken pieces of APD lying on the table. He was still drenched in the blood of Alex.

When he fought with Alex, the APD got broken by Alex’s spear. It was nothing but broken pieces of junk metal.

“And where is this lizard?” He cursed after waiting for Nightmare to show up. After waiting for half an hour, he could kinda guess that the dragon had fallen asleep with Claire.

After the battles, he reeked of blood. He liked to take a shower now more than anything else but unfortunately, the room had no shower as the cultivators used Arch energy to clean their bodies. Although using Arch energy was efficient and not tiresome, Michael used to take showers. His mind always calmed when standing under the shower, letting the water droplets wash the blood and his tension away.

The most he could do at the moment was wipe off the blood from his body and use the arch energy to clean himself.

“Fuck, I have no healing potion left” Michael cursed looking into his system storage. It had been so long until he restocked the 90% pure healing potion in his system storage. He was pretty busy dealing with Guardians and Hades.

“Okay I will fix the APD first and then brew a new badge of healing potions,” Michael thought in his mind. Sliding the chair back, he seated himself. A few deep breaths made him feel slightly rested.

“That snake better come back to me in one piece” Michael mumbled while cleaning the blood off of his arms. Usually, she would take care of him by giving him playful massages and cleaning the blood off of places he couldn’t reach.

Knock!

His train of thoughts regarding Gaya’s whereabouts got interrupted by a trio of gentle knocks on the door. He willed the system to show him the environmental map as he saw three figures waiting outside the door. He activated his X-ray eyes to see two female figures and one male figure. One of the women was at the Core Strengthening stage level 6 which caused a frown to form on Michael’s forehead.

“Who is there?” Michael asked while pulling the swords on the table closer to him.

“Its…It’s…” the man outside opened his mouth, changed his mind, then closed his mouth.

“Ghost, It’s Diana, Diana Winston”

When Michael heard the familiar voice, he was surprised. However, after giving some thoughts about Andrews’s situation, he just sighed.

“Give-” Ghost wanted to say ‘Give me a minute so he could put on a robe to cover his body yet the man opened the door quickly, it was more like he barged in.

Michael would have sent a bolt of lightning through the man if he didn’t know Diana. The man who abruptly opened the door was a dashing man who seemed to be in his mid-thirties or late thirties. He was wearing a rainy cloud gray V-neck shirt that covered his obvious chiseled chest. On top of the V-neck, he draped on a long white fur coat that looked cozy. His black pants contradicting the white coat still formed an unusual alliance to make him look stunning.

Just like Michael, the man sported a stubble beard. His shoulder-length black hair wasn’t too neatly combed nor too messy. His bright blue eyes stared at Michael while his facial muscles twitched to form a gentle smile.

The man seemed to have inherited all the good genes to be born with a perfect jawline and a handsome face. It was obvious the man was Diana’s husband, Lord Ethan Winston. There was something different about Diana though. Michael couldnt put his finger into it but he knew something’s different about her other than her shocking jump from Core Formation stage to Core Strengthening stage level 7 in such a short amount of time.

Everyone had their own secrets thus Michael chose not to mind her secret of such heaven-defying cultivation speed. Beside Diana was standing Emelda, the elder sister of Diana. For some reason, she was avoiding direct eye contact with Michael.

“Lord Ethan I presume” Michael reached his hand out to shake but Ethan remained still looking speechless.

“Ethan” Diana stepped forwards before putting her hand on Ethan’s shoulder.

“Yeah” her touch quickly brought Ethan back from his daze,

“Ghost” Ethan shook his hand but to Michael’s surprise, he suddenly embraced him,

“Huh, what’s happening?” Michael mumbled being squeezed by Ethan,

“Ethan let him go” Emelda squealed,

“It’s just he wants to thank you for everything you did for us. He’s just feeling a little bit emotional” Diana tried to make the situation less awkward for Ghost. She didn’t want Ghost to become suspicious of them.

“You’re getting blood on your coat, Lord Ethan” Ghost said as Ethan finally realized what he had done on impulse and let Michael go.

“Please, take a seat” Michael gestured at Ethan and the ladies towards the sofa beside them.

He then quickly took a towel to wipe off the blood from his body. After they seated themselves on the sofa, Michael pulled the wooden chair and sat backward on the chair.

“Congratulations for getting yourself allied with the Kane Family, Ghost” Diana smiled,

“Yeah after what happened to Alex, it would be good to have an ally like Kane family behind you” Ethan nodded after Diana.

After Michael killed Alex, everyone thought Ghost was done for as Alex was the next heir to the Fisher Family. However, as promised, Ashton personally came to the battle stage and announced that Ghost would be the best man for Adam Kane at his wedding. In addition to announcing this, Ashton also made sure everyone understood that Ghost is Kane’s family and his personal friend. Hence, even if the Fisher family tried to avenge Michael by trying to kill him, they would face the wrath of the Kane Family which would soon ally with House Oswen to become the strongest family in the Royal land.

Celina fainted on the spot after screaming out loud Alex’s name. The MorningStar sect brought her away from the battle stage before another battle between Ghost and Celina exploded. The MorningStar sect had already lost a star disciple and they didn’t want to lose Celina too.

Many people including some disciples of MorningStar sided with Ghost though since he did give Alex the chance to surrender. Moreover, everyone knew Alex was going to kill him and never would have given Ghost the chance to surrender.

The coordinators who oversaw the battle were gonna end up biting the bullet as the committee would blame them for not stopping the battle before Ghost killed Alex.

“Well Alex didn’t give me any choice, did he?” Michael was still cleaning the blood off of his arms while talking to them. He had no idea that he was talking to his father, mother, and aunt. They were his family. Diana and Ethan wanted to hug him tight as they could and say he’s their son. But how could they do that? They abandoned him, at least Diana was thinking she had abandoned him. However, only Emelda knew what really happened that night when Noah and Ghost were born.

Every scar Diana saw in his body squeezed her heart, it felt like someone slowly stabbing her heart with a rusty nail. His body was riddled with scars.

Both the scars he got from the earth and the scars Abras got started to appear on his body. He could remove those scars with the help of a potion but Michael wanted them to remain as they were because it reminded him of all the pain, struggles he went through in his life.

“I doubt you left your security detail to come here to talk about Alex,” Ghost asked with a sliver of a smile on his face,

While Michael was wiping off the blood from his right chest, Ethan noticed a ‘J’ shaped burn wound on Ghost’s skin. That burn wound seemed nastier than his other scars. It was almost a couple of inches inside Ghost’s skin.

“This one?” Michael looked at the scar on his right chest. It brought some bad memories back before his eyes. IF anyone else asked about it, Michael wouldn’t have answered but since Ethan and the Winston family could be another ally for him, he chose to answer them.
