Arad left after Liu Feng's behemest request. He finally was alone.
"Wow! I almost died there! What would have happened if I did? I wasted my last life toiling for that bastard because he took Ah'Li from me and kept her somewhere, but to think that in this life those same regrets remain. I wanted to have a good life, but I focused far too much on having an empire, a power of my own that I could truly say was mine, but it seems that my inferiority complex to that bastard has gotten the best of me. I should focus more on myself as a project. It's time to realize that I need more than power. I need friends and family. Ever since I got here, I subconsciously avoided and alienated most of the people here chasing after a few pipe dreams. I need to stop doing that."
Liu Feng suddenly found himself with a midlife crisis. He was torn that he was on the death step, and his only visitor was Arad. He felt immense regret swell up inside of him. He just sat upright with his eyes blank. He truly looked like he was dead. Then, someone knocked on the door.
"Come in, the door is unlocked."
Much to Liu Feng's surprise, Amelia came in. She was all dressed up and looked gorgeous. She had a bouquet in her hands.
"Thank you for helping my brother. It is my obligation to give you these flowers. My father also sends his wishes. He said that you must be careful. It is not every day that one finds such a wonderful rival to play with. As for the rest, you can just read for yourself. I will be leaving now."
"That's all? I almost died and I'm here all alone, surely you should give me company."
"No thanks. I don't want to.", Amelia pouted and quickly walked away.
Liu Feng laughed to himself. He thought, "Well that's something that you didn't have then, in that life. Don't give this up. Protect this one properly."
Liu Feng was about to go to sleep, when he heard another knock. He called out,
"Come in. The door is unlocked."
This time, Sylvette walked in.
'Sylvie! What a surprise. I haven't seen you a lot after the first week of school."
Sylvette smiled. She replied, "Well, you had been cold and distant to all of us since you and Amelia talked after the first day. It seemed that you were a different person. Well, the western club of Aegon sends you their regards. The club members were preoccupied with, well, because you shook up the club landscape by destroying the Glade club, all the others were scrambling to recruit the members who were left. So, I was sent to personally wish you. The others will give their regards tomorrow, when hopefully this all settles down."
Liu Feng scratched his head and smiled. "I certainly did not expect that the effects would reach even people like you. By the way, what is the news on Steve? He almost killed me and ran away."
"Well, after the incident, he was nowhere to be seen. In Fact, the Glade King is in the academy right now with his troupe, so I should warn you right now. He is very short tempered. We are just the children of Barons. We must be careful. The Kleins are very prideful people, and they certainly will act against you because of your feud with Steve. ", Sylvie spoke, but her eyes did not waver and were settled on Liu Feng's face. She looked truly worried and dark circles could be seen in her eyes. Liu Feng noticed them as well, but he did not have anything to say. He truly did not know how to bring up the matter.
"Thank you very much Sylvie, the information is very useful."
Sylvie blushed, and left.
Liu Feng finally got some peace and quiet. He did enjoy the visits, but he did need the rest to recuperate. He laid down on the bed and closed his eyes. He took a deep breath and was about to go to sleep, when all of a sudden, the door burst open. A large man came in and laid down a chair in front of Liu Feng. Liu Feng opened his eyes and got up. He saw a middle aged man enter behind the large man. The large man was holding a huge chair, one with more plush cushioning than the one next to Liu Feng. He came upto Liu Feng and kicked the chair away. Once he did that, he laid the chair down. The middle aged man walked forward and took a seat on the chair. The large man stood behind the middle aged man.
"So you are Liu Feng? The last person who saw my son? Well, this is an unfortunate loose end. Well boy, what did you see?"
"Who are you? What the hell are you doing here? I am still resting and I don't wish to see anyone right now. Why don't you go back and visit later?"
"Boy, who do you think I am huh? I am a king! You should kneel before me. Even if you are injured, you should take the pain and suck it up, but bend the knee regardless."
"You are the King of Glade? Well aren't you arrogant? Kicking open the door of a patient? Aren't you afraid of the repercussions of Aegon?"
"Do you really think that Liu Man will fight with Glade for someone just because they are surnamed Liu?"
"Well, he will if that person is his son. Leave this place now. I will not be entertaining any visitors. Please contact my cousin to make an appointment. I have to rest now."
The large man came forward and said, "Should I take care of this imprudent fool, Your Majesty?"
"Calm down.You idiot! Now, you said that you were Liu Man's son? Interesting. Let's play a little game then shall we? I will speak with Liu Man. If he is wrong, then I will be leaving with your head, and NO ONE will stop me."
He took a communication stone seemingly from nowhere. Liu Feng was surprised. He was sure that he sensed some mana involved, and his eye fell on a magic crystal on top of the ring of the king of Glade.
"It looks like there is a spatial magic stone as well. I definitely need to take a look into that.", he thought to himself.
The communication stone connected, and Liu Man's voice came out. "What do you want Tyrion? I am a busy man."
"Well, I am here at the academy, and there is someone here that is claiming to be your son, and he is also named Liu Feng, like your son. Is he? If he's not, I have some unfinished business with him."
"What the hell? You are with Liu Feng? Leave him alone, Tyrion. He is my son. I heard what happened. Let him get some rest. I will arrange for you to speak with him tomorrow. Leave the poor boy alone."
Tyrion just crushed the stone in his hand, ending the communication with Liu Man. He then looked at Liu Feng.
"A pity. I wonder why the prince of Aegon is hiding as a commoner in this place? Well, I will be coming tomorrow. You better prepare a few answers by then."
Liu Feng nodded, and Tyrion left. The huge man slammed the door behind him.
"Come out now Arad. I need you to do something."
Arad came out of the shadows like a ghost. It seemed that Liu Feng knew that he was there along with him, because he called him all too naturally.
"Go to Steve with a mask. He doesn't know that you were the one who took him yet right? Interrogate him in any way possible. Ignore the rules that respect human life. This one is just Glade scum. The entire family seems to have something to do with demons. I could feel the dark aura from Tyrion. I need answers fast, so that Tyrion does not fixate on me. It is better if one or two of his arms are mutilated. That way, Tyrion's rage will be directed towards the perpetrator, and as I was in the nurse's room all along, he will look anywhere except here."
Arad nodded and disappeared.
"You just got very dark boy. I know that you are older than you seem, maybe in your mind, but that was a vicious command that you gave there, and you gave it so casually. You do realize that you will lose the power of the spirits if your soul turns dark right?"
"Lose the powers of the spirits? What do you mean?"
"We are peace loving people. We love kind hearted creatures. I have no idea what you have been through in your past, but I am warning you. If you fall into that depraved state, you will be shunned by all spirits. Forget being the child loved by mana, you will be the one hated by all mana."
"Well, just ignore that. I was really angry at them. They don't even deserve to be called humans. To betray the entire continent and side with the demons is already one side of it, but they wanted to eliminate me like it was an ordinary thing to do. They are just inhumane. They must be taken care of right away."
"I agree, but that is no reason to betray your own morals. Remember, you are fundamentally different from them. You need to have a clear heart, or you will start facing trouble in the future. Just trust me, and calm yourself. ", Primitus advised Liu Feng
