Chapter 285: Worship by Returning Clansmen

?

Seeing such a large family, the two guards looked at each other. Why would someone even bring his whole family to visit and seek refuge?

After guarding the door for so many years, they had never seen such a ….

One of the guards stepped forward and asked respectfully, “Are all of you here to visit? Do you have an invitation…”

“What visit? We’re from the Nicholas family. Hurry up and report this!” The arrogant young man interrupted irritably.

In front of the crowd was an old man who seemed to be the head of the family. He frowned and said, “Yaben, don’t be rude!”

Then, his gaze landed on the guard who was shocked, and he said in a gentle voice, “We are all clansmen who had been separated from the main family previously. Now that we have returned to the ancestral land, quickly inform the primary family.”

The guard was dumbfounded. After he regained his senses, he immediately replied, “Y-You wait a moment! I’ll go now!”

As he spoke, he exchanged glances with the other guard and ran off to report.

Norton and the others were shocked to hear that the clansmen who had been separated back then had returned. Then, the entire Nicholas family clan quickly rushed to the door.

Even Romo was pleasantly surprised.

Soon, the head of the family, Norton, came to the door with a large group of people. When he saw the old man at the front, he stopped in his tracks, uncertain.

...

When the old man saw him, he was rather excited. “Are you Cousin Norton?”

“You are…” Norton hesitated.

The old man’s face was flushed. “Cousin Norton, I’m Koda!”

“Koda!” Norton was enlightened and excited. “Is it really you?!”

After 50 years, the young man from back then had become an old man. However, if he looked carefully, he could still see a trace of familiarity from his face. He finally connected the memories together…

The person in front of him was indeed a clansman who had been separated 50 years ago when the Nicholas family was moving. He was his cousin, Koda!!

“It’s me!” Koda strode forward and came to his side. “Cousin Norton…”

“Great! Come in with me and have a chat!!” Norton was overjoyed.

When the clansmen inside heard the conversation between Norton and the other person, they knew that this group of people were indeed from the same clan. All of them were overjoyed.

With the welcome of the Nicholas family, Koda and the others entered the palace.

After they had entered, Norton and the other core members of the Nicholas family led the dozen or so clansmen who had returned to the family to the conference hall to catch up with each other.

The other clansmen sat in the room outside, waiting. Several children and the younger generation looked over curiously, talking softly about the clansmen who had just returned.

Norton and Koda gathered to compare some details. Only then did Norton, the head of the family, confirm the identity of the other party.

As for the remaining ten or so people, although they also had the bloodline of the Nicholas family…

Whether it was true or not, and whether they could return to the clan… remained to be seen.

If they wanted to join the Nicholas family, they would definitely need the approval of the Old Ancestor.

Norton and the others sat quietly and listened to Koda slowly explain.

50 years ago, Koda and his father had also been intercepted by bandits on the way to the family residence. As a result, they had been separated from the large troop of the Nicholas family clan who were relocating. After that, they fled all the way and hid outside for a long period. After much difficulty, they reached the destination of the family clan’s relocation, but they could not find a single clansman.

Later on, they searched for a long time but returned empty-handed. After several twists and turns, they arrived at the small city west of Ferrero and settled down there.

Most of the people in the small city were ordinary people. The two of them quickly relied on their strength as Magi to establish themselves in the city and gradually became rich.

Koda had also started a family there. Now, he already had grandchildren.

As he had not been able to find them earlier, he had already given up. He thought that the main family had been exterminated by the Holy Light City.

Just as Koda felt that he would be cooped up in a small city for the rest of his life, he suddenly heard news about the Nicholas family. The Nicholas family had killed their way back to the Holy Light City!

When he heard that the Nicholas family clan was not only still around, but had also returned to the ancestral land, he became determined.

After he had dealt with the family businesses, he brought everyone back to the family clan.

Koda’s situation was similar to that of the clansmen who had found their family clan earlier. However, Koda and the others had been doing well later on… From the way this large family dressed, they should have been raised in wealth.

Then, the two groups of people discussed the recent situation and other details. Norton then got someone to send them to their room to rest and then made arrangements for them to pay their respects to the Old Ancestor.

At the door of the family’s conference hall, seeing the large family being brought away by the butler, Jimmy frowned and said, “Grandfather, they…”

Norton understood what he was thinking. He shook his head and said, “There’s no need for words. We’ll wait for the Old Ancestor’s instructions after they have performed the worship ritual for their return.”

Jimmy replied “Yes!” and said no more.

… …

On the other side, Koda and the others had been brought to a guest room by the butler, Abel, for a short rest.

“Tsk! What’s going on? We’ve just come in and we must pay our respects! He has not even given us some food to eat and is already hurrying us to bathe and change our clothes! The rules are simply taller than the heavens!”

After the door had been closed, the arrogant young man immediately threw himself onto the sofa and complained.

“Yaben! Don’t talk nonsense!!” Koda shouted.

Then, he carefully observed outside. After having confirmed that there was no movement, he looked at his grandson with a hopeless gaze.

Koda was a little nervous. “How many times have I told you this? When you are here, keep your personality away! This is not the Miher City earlier!”

Yaben pursed his lips and said perfunctorily, “Got it.”

Koda looked at the others and instructed, “Go and rest quickly. Be careful later. Don’t make any mistakes when you participate in the worship ritual for the return!”

The sun set and it was evening.

All preparations had been made in the ancestral hall of the Nicholas family for the returning clansmen’s worship ritual. Koda and the others had also come outside the ancestral hall to wait for the return worship ritual to be completed.

According to Norton’s arrangements, the ten plus people came to the ancestral hall to pay respects to the Old Ancestor of the Nicholas family.

On the tablet, a series of System notifications sounded in Romo’s consciousness.

[Ding! Received 10 Faith Points from the worship by the clansman. The Advanced Faith Doubling Talisman has been activated. You have received an additional 20 Faith Points.]

[Ding! Received 7 Faith Points from the worship by the clansman. Advanced Faith Points doubled… 14 Faith Points.]the

[Ding! Received 5 Faith Points from the worship by the clansman…]

… .

[Ding! Received… 1 Faith Point…]

[Ding! Received… 6 Faith Points…]

… .

[The total number of people who have returned to the family clan is 15.]

[The descendants who have returned have paid their respects to the Old Ancestor for the first time. This worship has a total of 87 Faith Points. The Advanced Faith Doubling Talisman has been activated. You have received an additional 174 Faith Points.]

Romo, who was floating in the void, frowned when he saw the ten-odd people closing their eyes and paying their respects one after another.

This group of people was different from the clansmen whom they had taken the initiative to find earlier.
