"Your sister is asking when you will finally settle down," the Green Family Patriarch said with a bright smile before darting out.
Nelia was stunned and then kicked the door angrily. "I’ll never settle down, damn it!"
Melia, who was already a distance away, shook her head when she heard her sister’s roar. Knowing her sister’s temper, Melia would actually feel that it was strange if Melia could settle down. Who could possibly withstand that fiery temper of hers?
At this moment, Aya and Evan were making their way back. The two of them didn’t talk much but at this moment, Evan suddenly said, "Aya, that’s not an ordinary metal, right?"
When Aya took out the metal, Evan had already noticed that this was not an ordinary metal. Even though he himself didn’t know why, but something inside him seemed to be telling him that this metal was very precious and even tempting him to get it.
But this metal belonged to his cousin sister.
So Evan would not take it away.
He just observed the metal before infusing his own mana inside and then felt as if there was a faint connection between him and the metal. But this connection was so faint that if he didn’t touch the metal directly, the connection would be cut off.
"Yes, it’s not ordinary," Aya admitted.
She had never shown this metal to anyone, but she felt that Wansu City might not be peaceful in the future. Whatever the Fourth Head of the Wansu City wanted to do, there was bound to be turmoil in Wansu City.
And this metal plate could be said to be a backup Aya prepared.
Even if she was not entirely sure whether it would succeed or not, but she had to be prepared.
"Father or Uncle shouldn’t be able to get it," Evan said slowly. "And there’s not many places that you can get it in Wansu City."
Metals were really precious in Wansu City because it was hard for them to truly get the high quality ones. The few that were usually circulated in Wansu City were usually the ordinary metals and could only be made into lower quality weapons.
While it could be used, but it would not last long.
Aya looked at Evan, not sure what her cousin wanted to say.
While Aya hid many things from the people around her, but those who interacted more with her should be able to notice some things more or less.
Among them, Evan was the one who had come into contact with Aya the most.
"I don’t know what you’re planning, but I believe in you, Aya," Evan said seriously. "I believe you will not harm me."
Aya heard Evan’s words and smiled faintly. "Thank you."
"No need to say thank you." Evan chuckled and looked at the White Family Residence. "I don’t think I can help you much but if you ever need help, you can say it and I’ll do my best."
After that, Evan ran to the White Family Residence.
Aya watched Evan’s back and smiled faintly. She was glad that her cousin trusted her because Aya definitely couldn’t tell anyone about the Fourth Head of the Wansu City’s matter. There were also many other things that she had to hide.
’Teacher’s matter... I hope it will not turn out to be the worst.’
Slowly, Aya went back to her own residence.
The next day, Silas informed them that they should train on their own because Silas wanted to see the Fourth Head of the Wansu City and talked about his mother and Rafi’s matters. While the businesses were important for the city, but Silas didn’t want to put his mother in danger.
What he wanted was for the Fourth Head of the Wansu City to check on Rafi more.
But the Fourth Head of the Wansu City felt that it was unnecessary. He believed that Rafi was nothing more than a businessman and that his presence was good for them. Even if Rafi and Silas’s mother ended up together, it would not bother the Fourth Head of the Wansu City at all.
And the Black Family Patriarch also agreed with this approach.
The conflict seemed to be heating up.
Just hearing about this made Aya a bit worried about Silas.
And just when Aya thought that nothing worse could happen...
"Fourth Head, someone had stolen the information list of the magic warriors that we recently investigated!"
In the middle of the night, the Fourth Head of the Wansu City was awakened once more.
When he heard what his subordinate said, he trembled in rage.
"Find that person at all costs!"
The information of the magic warriors were extremely important because the Fourth Head of the Wansu City had been investigating a few suspicious people who were of rank 5. These people were all suspected to have reached rank 7, so they were still being monitored.
Inside the list that they had compiled, the Fourth Head of the Wansu City also asked them to write their schedule.
If this information leaked out, the Fourth Head of the Wansu City would be a joke.
Moreover, the matter of safety for these magic warriors would also be a question mark.
Many magic warriors rushed over and traced the person who stole it. But when they saw the direction where the thief went, they were surprised and hesitant.
Because this person had entered Black Family’s forest.
The Black Family would not let any outsiders enter through this forest so easily.
"Black Family Patriarch..."
The Black Family Patriarch saw them and took a deep breath. "I’ll send my people to chase after the thief. This forest should be a dead end since there’s a barrier at the end..."
"Black Family Patriarch, the barrier was opened from the forest!"
"That’s not possible! I’m the only one..." The Black Family Patriarch paused when his words reached here.
Because he felt that he had forgotten something important.
