Missy innocently responded, “Earlier, I felt a strange aura in the East, beckoning me to go toward it. I couldn't
control my legs or the direction I wanted to go. But with that said, that aura made me feel comfortable. The closer I
got to it, the more magical it felt. It seemed as though I was flying.”
Hearing that, the deep frown on Zeke's forehead disappeared, and a smile appeared on his face instead.
“Oh, it's nothing to worry about, Missy. That aura is good, and there is nothing evil about it.”
On the other hand, Lacey still seemed apprehensive, and she worriedly asked her husband, “Zeke, what happened
to Missy?”
“Lacey, do you remember that Missy has strong sensing capabilities?”
Nodding her head, Lacey replied, “Yes.”
“Well, Fortuna just gathered at Throne Lake,” Zeke explained.
“Since Missy has sensing capabilities, she was first to notice the arrival of Fortuna, and it strongly attracted Missy.
Therefore, she could not control moving in the direction where Fortuna was.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLacey could finally let out a breath of relief.
She was previously afraid that Netherworld had cast a spell on Missy to take control of her.
“Lacey, let's head to the temple,” Zeke suggested.
“We can let Missy bathe in Fortuna. It may or may not bring her fortune, but it definitely would not harm her.”
Lacey nodded in agreement.
With that, the family of three headed toward the temple.
The area was packed, making it difficult for them to maneuver around.
Despite so, Zeke was not planning to use his privilege by using the VIP entrance to avoid the crowd.
Since it was a blessing, he wanted to share the joy with everyone else.
Yet, after they took a few steps forward, Zeke sensed someone following behind them.
As an Ultimate Class martial artist, he had a strong sixth sense, and it was no feat for him to notice such things.
The person must be courting his death for stalking my family and me!
Zeke tightened his fists.
However, there were too many people present for him to do anything.
His wife and child were beside him, and countless villagers were heading to Throne Lake to catch a glimpse and
experience Fortuna. Thus, his hands were tied.
Given so, he decided to meet that person in private.
He asked Lacey, “Lacey, are you thirsty? Do you want to sit down with Missy to have an ice-cold drink?”
Instinctively, Lacey wanted to reject his offer.
In spite of that, she realized that Zeke's expression seemed grim, and he was giving her an odd look.
As such, she understood his intentions and nodded. “Sure.”
Following that, Zeke brought Lacey and Missy to a drink stand and got them to sit down.
Then, he headed off to look for the man in black who was following them.
Seeing Zeke walk over, the man realized that he had blown his cover.
Therefore, he quickly stopped by a toy stand and pretended to play with an item.
Despite his efforts, Zeke walked up to him and patted his shoulder. “Hey, could I borrow your lighter?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe man shook his head. “I don't have one.”
“Is that so?” Zeke snorted before he released his energy, pressing it against the man in black.
The stalker was only an ordinary martial artist. Given so, he could not hold up against the energy from an Ultimate
Class martial artist even though Zeke only used a tiny bit of his strength.
As though Mount Ymir was crushing him, he could barely breathe. His body felt like it could break down anytime
soon.
Painfully, he choked, “O-Okay, I'll lend it to you!”
That's more like it!
Grinning, Zeke finally let go of the man.
Leading Zeke away from the crowd, the stalker stopped beside a car. They then got into it to chat privately.
“Do you want to end your life by yourself, or would you like me to help you with that?” Zeke coldly stated.
What?
Instantly, the stalker felt a chill down his spine.
