Chapter 603 For Survival



Huff! Huff!

Huff!

Standing beside the bed, looking at peacefully sleeping Lily, Max was heaving deep and hot breaths, his fists clenched tight and his face flushed.

Just as he had expected, after he used up his bloodline energy by healing Lily\'s Mana core, his lust had intensified manifold and it was still increasing. Little Max was already as hard as iron while his sapphire eyes had already turned a dark shade of pink, indicating his bloodline affecting his state of mind. Breathing heavily and exhaling hot, almost fiery breaths as though there was lava boiling in his body, and his body full of sweat and shaking as he was about to lose control of his body, he looked more like a beast in heat and less like a human.

"How annoying!" He muttered, before taking out his communication crystal, "Emily, I\'ve healed Lily. Take care of her. I need to take care of something, but I will return soon. So, don\'t worry about me."

After putting the Communication Crystal away, he rushed out of the room and inn before rushing into the eastern side of the middle-city where most of the local population of the capital lived.

Swoosh!

Across the Avan Inn, the Inn where Max\'s group was staying, in the local restaurant sat a few people who were unlike other customers as they weren\'t eating anything. Instead, they were staring at the Inn through the windows.

The restaurant owner and employees weren\'t happy since they were occupying the tables for free but didn\'t dare say anything because when they arrived, those people had revealed their identities… They were the servants of Four Great Noble families, who apparently were here to keep an eye on someone who was staying in the Avan Inn.

\'These cheap bastards! Spy on whoever you want but if you are going to occupy the tables, at least pay me….\' The restaurant owner thought, cursing them in his mind.

Just then, the expressions of the \'spies\' changed while one of them started saying, "He is out. Let\'s inform…"

Swoosh!

Before he could even complete his sentence, however, Max rushed away at a speed that was comparable to an ordinary early-stage Five-star mage, and quickly disappeared from their sights.

Before he could even complete his sentence, however, Max rushed away at a speed that was comparable to an ordinary early-stage Five-star mage, and quickly disappeared from their sights.

"What happened?"

"Did he know he was being watched and escaped?"

"What do we do?"

"Let\'s just inform the family."

Although the noble families weren\'t exactly on friendly terms with each other, the low level subordinates like them didn\'t have any disagreements and on common missions, they were used to cooperating with each other.

In the Fuller family\'s estate, Mike Fuller, the person who met Max a while ago, who was also the patriarch of the Fuller family received the news of Max\'s hurried departure from the Inn and frowned.

From what his subordinate told him, only Max left the Inn, his companions were still inside the Inn.

\'Even if he is worried about the noble families taking action against him, he won\'t leave his companions and escape alone. He didn\'t seem that kind of a person.\' He thought, \'Then what happened? And… where had he gone?\'

After thinking for a while, he pressed a formation button on his desk and ordered, "Send Pyke to my study."

A few minutes later, an ordinary looking man wearing brown robes arrived. He looked a little nervous, and afraid because every time he was called to the patriarch\'s study like this, he was assigned some mission where he almost lost his life a few times. Even though he was a member of the Fuller family, he didn\'t inherit the Fuller Family\'s bloodline, which was related to Metal Refinement, which was the reason why the Fuller family was the leading weaponsmith family of the kingdom, instead, he inherited his mother side\'s bloodline, something that made him an expert in tracking people. With his bloodline ability, he could track Five-star and if he was lucky and King rank mages were careless, he could even track them despite him being just a three-star mage.

Since he was an expert in this area and the family often needed to track some people down for various reasons, he became the person the family went to every time they needed him to track someone down. That was why he knew he was called here for another tracking mission.

\'I just hope this mission won\'t be as dangerous as the last one.\' He prayed in his heart. Last time, the person he was tracking, a mid-stage Four-star mage, had realized he was being tracked and almost lured him into a death trap, the memory of which still haunted him.

Seeing him, Mike\'s assistant notified Mike of his arrival. After Mike gave permission, the assistant let Pyke enter the study. When he saw the family patriarch, he respectfully bowed, and greeted, "Greetings my lord!"

Mr. Fuller nodded, and without wasting time, he went straight to the point, "I have a task for you, Pyke…"

50 minutes ago… Arasia Family Estate…

In a large chamber, three people were gathered. Two of which were the Arasia family Elder and the Dalton Matriarch who Max met a while ago while the third one was a graceful middle-aged woman with the same pigmentation of hair as Flavia, the Arasia family\'s overlord, Silvia Arasia, a peak Five-star mage.

"How sure are you that that brat has the Valiant Family\'s heirloom weapon that Thunder Family is after?" Silvia asked the Dalton Matriarch.

"100%." The Dalton Matriarch replied.

"Oh? How come you have this information but the Royal Family doesn\'t?" Silvia wondered.

Since the Royal family was the strongest, and was after Valiant Family\'s Thunder Sword, they should have gotten this information way before the Dalton family, but from the Royal family\'s behavior, she knew they didn\'t know Max had the sword, heck, they didn\'t even know Max was Ashton and Hannah\'s son.

The Dalton Matriarch smirked, "It\'s because the Royal family is too strong."

"Ah, I see." Given the worldly experience of the Arasia Matriarch, she immediately understood what Dalton Matriarch, Helen, meant by those words. It turned out the party who first got this information, which she could easily guess was Count Wiley, didn\'t dare to share it with the Royal Family in the fear of losing out the benefits he could receive if he shared this information with some family other than the Royal Family because if the Royal family went back on their word and refused to give him what he deserved, he wouldn\'t be able to do anything about it.

As for why he thought the Royal family wouldn\'t give him appropriate benefits for such an important piece of information was because of two things… First, the going war wasn\'t cheap and just like every other family and organization, the Royal family was also trying to preserve their wealth, and second and the probably the real reason why Wiley chose not to tell them was because of the Extraordinary Worth of the Thunder sword.

Given how precious a Monarch rank artifact was, if the Royal family after acquiring it decided to keep it, they would surely want to erase every trace that could lead anyone, especially the Valiant and more powerful and ruthless Thunder Family, they would surely be destroyed since lusting after something they didn\'t have the strength to keep was a sin.

As for why he didn\'t have the same concern about the Dalton family was because he knew the Daltons would never dare to keep the sword and would hand it over to the Thunder Family in exchange for their protection during the war.

"It\'s for the best that the Royal family doesn\'t know about it. Let\'s quickly take it from him. Then, we\'ll go to the central plains to deliver it to the Thunder family." Silvia said before turning toward the Elder, "Elder Wilfred, you take Elder Christine, and Elder Ava and go keep an eye on the place where that kid is. Once you get the chance, kill and bring back the sword."

"Yes, Matriarch!" Wilfred nodded.

"Remember to be careful to not leave any evidence of your presence." Silvia gravely added. Wilfred nodded and left the place, feeling excited. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

\'We no longer have to worry about our family\'s survival once we get that sword.\' He thought before sighing, \'Don\'t blame us kid, we\'ll have to do everything we can to ensure our survival.\'

Though Claire had given him her address when she invited him to visit her when he had time, it would\'ve taken quite a bit of time to find her house if not for his bloodline ability. With it, he arrived in front of her house just a few minutes after leaving the Inn, and knocked on the door.

Pa! Pa!
