Chapter 85
"My red note I couldn't go to my mother's house that day and see her because of Ray's appearance... he stopped me for some reason and told me and promised that he would let me see her later... It's been a while and I'm here at my uncle's house and my roommate Ace Alert... I've had news of Jasper's death some time ago. And the entry of Angels into the intensive clinic...!! See if I am the reason again!!! Weiss is doing research whose content I don't know!! He was focusing and saying it was something for me! Is he planning something? "
Ace Alert stood up from his bed and looked at Carl who was sitting at the desk writing in his new note.
Ace: "I'm going to visit Ray.."
He said it and then ran outside as if he had discovered something new!!
He arrived at the mansion that carries Simon and his colleagues in the service of Ray..
Enter him and they bowed to him!
Ray smiled at him from afar, "I've been waiting for you..."
Ace walked towards him with a smile and entered his study room while Simon calmly adjusted his glasses: "Young Master Falcon has improved significantly in his relationship with this human lately..."
Alford shrugs: "I owe him the reason that Triss is back here..."
Ace sat on the bench and opened the papers he brought with him..
As Ray and Danny approached, he bit his shoulder and drank softly.
Ace: "I have good news...
First: Based on the books that I stole from a world without a name.. It turns out that the quadripartite contract is distinct from any other contract so that breaking it does not cause any complications
Second: Mr. Thomas will not be able to seal the quadruple contract again unless he knows what happened in breaking the seal...
Ray pulled away, "What do you mean? What happened?"
Ace looked at him, "I don't know if Mr. Thomas and Regent knew that when I broke the seal bearing Regent's force, some force entered my body...this force that entered is preventing them from re-seal."
Ray: "Wow, that's great news."
Ace: "But there's still a problem."
Ray asked, "What is it, little scholar?"
Ace: "He can seal me with him.. I mean the four-way contract and me together.. until you regain the strength that entered me.."
Ray: "I understand that if he wants to seal it again and block the way between the two worlds, the power within you must be with him.. and since it entered your body, you will also be sealed."
Ace: "Yeah...that's why my contractor was always telling me to stay away from Thomas Smith...because if he knew I was a new part in this seal..."
Ray interrupts him: "It remains to find a way to bridge the path between the two worlds..."
Ace smiles at him, "I didn't know you'd help me if I asked for help."
Ray: "You idiot, I don't want my older brother to leave again.. so I'll do anything for him.. Then it's a nice feeling to expel savages out of their world forever.. I have to thank your contractor, whom I haven't met before.."
Ace holding his collar: "Your thanks have already arrived..."
Ray thought: "Don't you think we can seal a force the size of the Quadruple Contract?"
Ace: "Why would someone have to sacrifice? We have to find another way..."
Ray sighed, "Phoenix has dealt with many savages who have entered this world.. so I think that Phoenix and his little Rex and sometimes Eric are still resistant to them, we have time to think some way.. Speaking of which I miss Eric's blood.. I'm going to meet him.."
Ace sighed and stood ready to head back to Nicholas' house as Ray walked out the window.
........
Eric was leaning against a wall, panting from exhaustion, parts of his clothes torn and some scattered wounds on his body.
He raised his head when he sensed someone was coming to see Ray.
Eric sighed, "That's you..."
In an instant he was in front of him biting his neck and drinking from it..
Eric mumbles: "Fuck..."
Ray whispered and coldly: "Eric... I won't forgive you if Angelus dies..."
Eric's eyes widened a little, and Ray said, "Yes, I know you killed Jasper, and I did what you did to Los Angeles and many of the things you do that you hide from everyone.
Eric furrows his eyebrows, and what does Ray want from him?!
Ray: "Stop hurting those dear to Carl Smith, do you understand?"
Eric coldly: "I'll do whatever I like... in the end you don't have a single piece of evidence against me... My next move will really amaze you!"
Ray was a little surprised he really doesn't have evidence except that he smelled Jasper and Angels in Eric before.. that's all..
........
Ace came home and quietly entered it..
He walked towards Catherine, who looked at him with an eyebrow raised, seeing a wound he was trying to hide on his shoulder.
Ace: "Okay, well.. Misfortune number two was feeding a vampire nothing but.."
Catherine: "Did you learn this method from Carl ..! Oh my God, it will distort your innocence..!"
Ace seriously sat across from her: "You've gotten really good with him and I hope this happens between Carl and Eric..."
Catherine sighs: "That kid, so he won't visit his mother or ask about her; how do you want me to help you?"
Carl Alert came out of his room holding Kanzi's hand: "Mom, we're out!"
Karen came out of her room: "I'm going with them mom!!"
Catherine smiled at them: "Don't be late, kids!"
They nodded in agreement and left the house while Ace remained bewildered as he unintentionally stared at Catherine.. he was just discharged..
Catherine: "What now!?"
Ace: "I'm trying to solve problems.. and make Carl happy.. to prevent his father from stamping him.. and live happily with his father or mother.. and come back as a normal child.. and live like everyone else.."
Catherine was silent for a while, then said, "Okay, I want to help."
Ace was surprised as she continued wearily, "Don't look at me like that; yes, I want help. Is there anything wrong with him? I want to correct my mistakes with him."
Ace smiled as they heard applause.
She turned to see Carl Smith walking out of his room and applauding her with a smile..
Catherine sighs: "Now, you're laughing again...?"
Carl Smith: "I feel like I want to wear a diamond tiara! I'm going to visit my father and borrow money from him"
Came out of the house to Katherine's surprise!
Ace smiles at her: "You know, this boy loves you..."
Catherine: "Well, me too."
Still in shock, Carl Smith had a completely different personality with her! Nicely feisty too.. close to her like a child spoiling his mother..!
Catherine: "Okay... I'll try to talk to Eric... is that okay?"
Ace nodded in agreement as she picked up her phone...
..........
Thomas put his hand on Carl 's head coldly.
Carl was serious and here he is in front of his father!!
Carl Potter: "A.. Dad?"
Thomas: "Baby Carl, do you still want me to seal your power?"
Carl quickly replied, "Yes, sure!! But.. the world still has intruders from..."
Thomas interrupts him: "We will deal with them, not you."
Carl closed his eyes quietly, as if waiting.
A faint light appeared between his hand and Carl 's head, then he removed his hand, and Carl raised his head and looked at his father in amazement..
Thomas mumbles: "As I expected, we need the key."
Carl was surprised: "The key???"
Thomas whispered: "Ace Alert..."
Carl changed the subject: "Dad, can you lend me some money?"
Thomas, surprised: "Yes, of course...!"
He took out a bank card pocket and handed it to him: "Take whatever you want, it is yours."
He threw his phone hard on the ground and broke it to pieces and looked very angry..
............
Eric angrily: "My mother is trying to mend the relationship between me and Carl !!!! The worst is that he lives with her!! He took my father and now my mother!! who was in my class since I was young!! This is happening!! And those children of hers.."
Ray, surprised: "What's wrong with you?!"
Ray sighs and half-smiles: "Oh my God, what's this jealousy!"
Eric punches him in the face: "Shut up!!"
Ray took a few steps back..
Ray wearily: "What do you really want!? You could have approached your parents as naturally as anyone would but you're clumsy!"
Eric did not answer him, but started to take out what was in his chest with a real fight with Ray in which Ray had to use his strength to start defending himself and return Eric's strength..!
Ace ignored being someone who now doesn't know his family in order to finish his first goal...
She's almost going crazy.
She's standing and checking her babies, all three of them have come home, but..
Carl has a wound in his right arm.
Kanzi is crying with a few wounds on his arms, legs and even his back.
Finally Karen It was just a small scratch on her palm..
Catherine was surprised: "What happened to you!!?"
Carl was silent as he looked at Ace, he had come to treat Kanzi's wounds, he was the most hurt..
Catherine repeated angrily because of her fear for them: "What happened to you, why this silence!!? Who hurt you!?"
When they heard the bell, Carl stood up to be surprised by Phoenix.
Carl hesitated: "H.. Are you going to tell her?"
He ignored him and walked inside and stood in front of Catherine.
Catherine raised her head and gasped lightly; It is not his custom to visit.
Phoenix nervously, rubbing his head, trying not to look into her eyes: "Mom, I came to tell something very important..."
Catherine suspects that he is related to her children, as he comes a little later: "Say quickly..."
The background of this dialogue between them was Kanzi screaming and crying while Ace sterilizes his wounds..
Phoenix: "Actually Eric did this..."
Her eyes widened and she turned to look at her children.
Catherine looks at Phoenix when she sees their silence: "No way, they are his brothers!!"
Phoenix holds her palms and says softly, "Mom... did you forget that Carl Smith was also his brother...?"
I got nervous and started to worry.
Yes it was his brother but she was hurting him and making Eric do it..
Yes, he was his brother from his father.. and now he is harming his brothers from his mother..!!!
She looked down helplessly, feeling remorse.. I felt it a lot in the last days of Carl Smith before he left.. and now the regret grows more..
She is the reason Eric hurt her children..
Her tears faded, and she began to sob quietly.
Her baby and spoiled by Eric.. He is no longer her little one who listens to her.. He is no longer that child whose mother's words are number one in everything..
He grew up and became a rebel.
Phoenix: "Actually I... I want you to try with him, okay?"
Catherine pushed him angrily: "What have you lost control of and throw everything at me!? When you made him take pleasure in..."
"you"
They turned to Lyria Eric, standing at the door, leaning against the wall, staring coldly at them.
Eric rolls his eyes: "Where's the professor?"
Catherine walked towards him silently and then grabbed his collar and pulled him closer to him.. her little one became taller than her..
Catherine: "What is this disobedience, huh? When was the last time I saw you!? And why would you hang up the phone in your mother's face..."
Eric looked coldly at his mother's angry features; It was not the anger that he had seen in the past.. Her anger was the wrath of reproach and anxiety over him.
She left his collar quietly when he didn't answer her and hugged him tenderly on his head..
Then she dragged him to his brothers: "Eric, these are my little ones and they are your brothers; hurting them means hurting me...so treat them like an older brother who protects them, okay?"
He looked at them coldly; Carl and Kanzi were both avoiding looking at him while Kanzi screamed in fear and cried and Ace was suffering with him in treating his wounds..
Eric: "They are not my brothers; these kids have taken my mother's attention from me..."
Her eyes widened as she recalled a similar situation; He was innocently asking why they hurt his brother Carl and she answered him simply..
"This is not your brother, this is what your father took from you."
She replied nervously: "It's not true; I love them and I love you; neither of you will take me for the other.. Eric. Don't think like that you've become a man..."
Phoenix gasped as he suffocated, but Eric pushed him with a grudge and then walked out amid his mother's calls, but disappeared at his newly acquired speed..
Catherine looked toward Phoenix: "What happened between the two of you!?"
Phoenix scratches his head as he looks sideways shyly: "Actually...nothing."
Karen: "Mom, my brother Phoenix was fighting with my brother Eric to protect us...I think that's why Eric seems so angry with him.."
Catherine sighed, "Oh my God..."
Phoenix raises an eyebrow, "What?"
Catherine raises her phone: "I'm going to get along with Thomas Smith. He should keep a close eye on Eric."
Phoenix drags her phone and quickly turns it off with tension and anxiety: "Listen to me, mom, we'll be fine.. I'm going after him."
Then he ran outside while Catherine sat, moving her hands nervously and was surprised when Ace ran after him..!
..........
Phoenix looked behind him when he felt Pace follow him.
Ace: "Mr. Phoenix, what are you up to? Why did you tell the lady what Mr. Eric did... don't you agree?"
Phoenix stood until Ace arrived beside him.
Phoenix softly looked hesitant as if he was confused about something: "It's none of your business."
Ace: "Okay, I'll tell you something that will surprise you."
Phoenix looked at him while Ace said seriously, "Mr. Eric... my little master set a goal..."
Phoenix's eyes widened and he looked forward, his heart starting to throb as Ace said, "Please let's go to him.. I'm afraid he's taking revenge on you with your son!"
Phoenix did not rule out this and carried Ace to use his power to reach his palace..!!
And Ace's prediction was correct.. Eric was trying to hurt Rex.. He was in his ward..
Rex was thrown with a wall behind him and very lightly cut him while there..
Phoenix surprised: "Ray??!!!"
Ray was protecting Rex and fighting Eric!!
Eric angrily: "Leave me Ray or I'll kill you!!"
Ray: "Then kill me then go to Rex!!"
Rex surprised: "Oh my God!! What happened to my uncles!"
Ace is checking out Rex.
Phoenix: "Stop!!"
Ray and Eric stopped and turned towards him.
Phoenix: "You've always been with you!! And come to hurt my son, Eric!!? You hurt me as a kid!? Damn!! That's the reward for always standing by your side!!"
While Eric stabbed Ray in the stomach, Ray coughed directly.
Eric coldly: "Well that's your reward; isn't he the one who distorted your purity?"
Phoenix and Danny ran from Ray: "Are you okay?"
He said worriedly as Ray's eyes turned dark red as he stared at Eric sharply..
Ray: "That was just a past that had nothing to do with you! Phoenix and I are now brothers!"
Phoenix was surprised as he looked at him and then swallowed his saliva trying to hide his fear of these evil eyes..
Phoenix noticed that Ray's wound was healing.
Phoenix whispered: "Thank you for protecting Rex."
Ray whispered: "It's for him, not for you.. Back off."
He stopped, staring at Eric sharply.
Phoenix whispered, "Okay..."
perplexed, he stood and stepped back; How could his enemy protect his little girl and love him like this? Is he serious about being just past?? Then it didn't bother him if he was honest in what he said!?
Ace hides his fear and says in a loud, serious voice, "Mr. Eric! May I speak to you in private!?"
Ray turns to him: "I don't allow! You are my food and I won't let you down!"
Eric smiled cunningly and raised an eyebrow.
Ace: "But!!"
Ray interrupted him: "He killed someone and is torturing him. Don't you fear for yourself!"
Ace and Rex were shocked.. Phoenix was also shocked because Ray knew about this..
Well killing isn't unusual for winged people but.. Eric?
Eric quickly ran up and picked up Ace to jump out of the window, and Ray started following him.
Phoenix dangling from Rex and looking at him sadly: "Baby, I'm sorry it's all because of me..."
Rex looks the other way silently.
.........
Carl Smith entered the house with a present in his hand.
He looked at Catherine in amazement, feeling her sadness as she cracked her hands nervously..Kanzie was very much dressed while lying on the sofa..
He did not notice Carl Alert because he hid his wound under the sleeve of his shirt; Karen's wound was minor, so she's no longer hurt like Kanzi.
He approached Catherine and offered her a gift.
She raised her head in amazement, and said with boredom, "Open it, Princess of Drama."
He's laughing again...
I grabbed her angrily, tearing her with all savagery, and then stopped in shock; He was serious! In front of her is a diamond crown..!
She raised her hand in disbelief as he took it from her and dressed her with a sweet smile...
He quickly turned away and smiled sarcastically: "Wow, Countess Catherine is in front of me!"
Catherine grumbled: "Stop being sarcastic, kid."
Then she looked even sadder.
He came close to her and looked at her, "So?"
Catherine looks at him out of the corner of her eye and then suddenly hugs him gently.
Catherine: "I'm sorry Carl .. I'm really sorry for everything.. you're my little boy.. I still remember the rainy day I held you in my hand's house on the day I joined your father.. I.."
He felt her tears, smiled sweetly and hugged her as well: "Oh, you old man... what..."
She pushed him angrily while holding back her tears: "Shut up!"
He laughed happily and hugged her tightly: "I have already forgiven you for everything!! You have proven to me your change, old mother! I still remember your kindness in my early years before you turned into a ferocious beast!"
Catherine let out an annoyed cry: "Every day you come out with a title uglier than before!"
She rolled his cheek and muttered in annoyance as she looked at the other side: "Bug.. I knew from Ace that he was trying to bring you back to a normal child, so.. let me help you baby."
Carl asks: "You're really doing this... by staying at your house..."
She smiled sweetly and then kissed his forehead: "I'll do more.. I'll help Ace with that.."
"And she started trying to persuade me to break the contract.. I was very happy.. I was deprived of my mother for a very long time.. and I met my father's coldness a lot.. I felt everything that was being restored with my ex-wife, do you believe? Can you believe my red note!! She is indeed a mother..yes she is a mother..!! And since she married my father previously, so she is my mother too..!! Yes, she is my second mother, as Ray said in the past... that I'm lucky, I have a father and an honest man!! I wonder what would happen if I went to my mother's house and met her husband?? "
