.....Until my last breath, I will never forget this kindness." Patriarch Mars responded briskly and then he approached and took the four bottles while thanking him.
Yes, indeed even though the gift seemed kind of ambiguous since it was taken from the Patriarch's strongest three pets. But still, those drops of blood mean a lot to the powerhouse of the Healer family.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Granny Claudia clapped and said aloud, "How noble of the Lord Damien Darhk? First, my Grace took those three drops of essence blood from those three beasts because they were engaged in a battle earlier and my grace spared their lives in exchange for their essence blood. Now, returning back to the owner for his subservience in service of my Grace."
Hearing her words cleared the smoke clouding the minds of all the crowd and they began to see a new light in Damien Darhk-SLASH-Bobby. As a result of those few words of hers, their regard for him skyrocketed.
'Huh, classic! Really classic move. Granny Claudia, you're called Reverend not just for your strength because of how quick-witted you are to manipulate everything according to her whim. Hmm, mom is right about her. I need someone like her if I want to have a firm grasp over all the six olden families.' Bobby thought in his head.

"Loud and clear!" Everyone responded in tandem.
Soon everyone left the hall, leaving only Bobby, Patriarch Mars, and Granny Claudia.
Then Bobby and Granny were brought back to the Patriarch's chamber and they were entertained with their best wines, dance shows, and many other kinds of stuff.
After spending the day in leisure, Granny Claudia saw Bobby yawning and asked, "My Grace, what's your next plan?" And she glanced at Patriarch Mars giving a meaningful look as if telling him that they wanted to have a private discussion.
Patriarch Mars waved his hands, sending off all the entertainers, and said politely, "Lord Damien Darhk, let me excuse myself."
"That'll not be necessary at all. Just stay as I like you to hear my plan." Bobby said, gesturing at him to sit back.
Then he further added, "Now, I have Blood Moon Family of werewolves and Healer family of the witches on my side. Now, all I need to do is give a visit to each of the other three olden families; the Treant Guardian Family of elves, the Fiery Family of Chimeras, and lastly, the hotshot Blood Royalty Familly of Vampires. And about the Sixth family, the Protector family, I'll come up with a perfect plan to unify them too because they were once unified under my father Gregory Darhk. And I believe I can do that too."
Granny Claudia and Patriarch Mars Queen listened attentively the entire time.
'Hmm, I made the right bet this time. Hahaha… It turns out Lord Damien Darhk is the son of Lord Gregory Darhk, the sovereign of the Sixth Olden family.' Patriarch Mars Queen wondered in his head.
"My Grace, which one are you planning to visit first?" Granny Claudia asked once again.
"Mmm-hmm," Bobby hummed as if he was pondering and the beautiful smiling face of Diana Carver appeared in his mind and he responded, "The Vampires! I'll visit the Blood Royalty Family first."
Meanwhile, a guard's loud voice chimed, reporting: "Lord Patriarch, young miss has finally come out of the forbidden ground and she is here to wait for your permission to have an audience with you."
Patriarch Mars Queen responded, "I've some important guests here. Tell her to come to visit me some other day."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Eh, Patriarch Mars Queen, please be yourself at home. I'm temporarily residing here and there is no need for you to meet your daughter just because I'm here. It feels like you're leaving me in such an awkward situation. Just meet her, okay?" Bobby suggested out of boredom.
"Fine," Patriarch Mars agreed, and then he instructed, "Guard, let her in!"
Then he turned to Bobby and said in a pleading tone, "Lord Damien Darhk, my apology for failing to bring my daughter to today's gathering. Please, spare her."
"Patriarch Queen, I understand. Your daughter was in your family's forbidden ground. So, stop apologizing too much." Bobby responded while reclining on his luxurious-looking chair.
A few minutes later, the chamber's door opened with a sound, then a tall and elegant-looking brunette came inside walking with a long gait.
Seeing her, Bobby quickly pulled out his handkerchief and covered his face. And underneath the veil of the white piece of cloth, Bobby made a devilish grin and said telepathically in his head, "Hee-hee-hee, finally we meet again."
As the brunette glanced around, she spotted the Patriarch and approached him. Then she greeted, "Daddy, you seem to be in a good mood! Care to share with me."
Seeing her playfulness, Patriarch Queen warned her, "Eli, mind your manners. I'm here with Lord Damien Darhk." As he gestured his head toward the lad who was reclining leisurely on the luxurious chair while covering his face with a white handkerchief.
"Oh, I heard about the news just now about our family following a great and generous Lord Damien Darhk." Elizabeth muttered under her breath and she bowed slightly at Bobby and said, "Thank you, Lord Damien Darhk for going easy on my father."
She snorted in her head as she saw that lord Damien Darhk had not reciprocated her greeting.
Then she whispered in her father's ear, "Daddy, eight years ago, I met someone so stubborn in the Dwarka Planet and he stole something very valuable from me in the pretext of my weakness. Now, I would like to find him and deal with our unfinished business and teach him a good lesson for not searching for me for these long years after stealing my precious thing. So, I'm here to inform you that I'll take my leave today for the Dwarka Planet."
