“I will be going out of town to kill Barry in the next two days, so they won’t keep sending assassins over
to Cloudtopia.” Skylar explained.
Apparently, he would always face his enemies head on.
“Yes, sir!” Dianne replied as Skylar returned to the table.
“Is something wrong, Skylar?” Yulia asked while Valerie looked over with a concerned look.
Valerie was still shaken by what happened that morning, but she decided to stay silent in front of Yulia.
She could guess that it must have to do with whatever happened that morning since Skylar looked
serious.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I need to leave Cloudtopia for a few days. There is something that I need to deal with.” Skylar did not
want Yulia to know too much about how violent things were especially in front of Lola.
SInce Yulia had faith in Skylar, she decided to let things slide. Besides, Skylar did not want her to
worry, so all she could do was support him unconditionally and not question things to the very end.
SinceYulia did not probe, Valerie decided to change the subject. However, Dianne soon returned with a
pitch-black envelope.
It was stamped with gold foil and it was none other than a sacred declaration of war.
However, Skylar did not care about the envelope as he tore the letter open. There was a piece of letter
stating that someone would be waiting for Skylar in Tawnley two days from then. The letter was signed
by Barry.
It was Barry!
“Interesting.” Skylar could not help but laugh at the letter. He could not recall anyone from the Northern
borders who dared challenged hiim and somehow a nobody like Barry was bold enough to challenge
him. He wanted to allow Barry to live for a few more days, but he did not expect Barry to be that eager
to meet his maker.
Interesting, how interesting!
“Tell him that I’d be accepting his challenge in two days.” Skylar threw the envelope back to Dianne
after that.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yes, sir,” Dianne replied after accepting the envelope.
“Where are you going, daddy? Can you bring me along?” Lola asked.
Skylar shook his head and said, “Didn’t you sign up for a singing competition? Valerie is here to teach
you how to sing. Make sure you win for me, okay? I’ll be back in two days. Look, you won’t be able to
have fun if you tagged along since I’d be busy. So you should just stay home and practice well. Don’t
you think that’s a good idea?
Skylar had decided to kill Barry in Tawnley in two days, so it would be inconvenient for him to bring Lola
along.
“Well…” Lola was hesitant when she heard that. She wanted to go with Skylar because she did not
want to be away from him. However, she was able to learn how to sing from Valerie. When Skylar
noticed her hesitance, he whispered, “If you stay at home and sing, I promise to give you a baby sister
after this, okay?”
