The Seven Deadly Child
Bad News
"Are you calm now?"
"And, Jasia, calm yourself too!"
Currently, Theo was using his Gravity Field Technique. Although according to Theo this technique is still not very effective in real combat, because it is too wasteful to spend the Mana gravity, but Theo sees no other way to resolve the misunderstandings that are being faced. He did not want to hurt these guards because they were just doing their duty, on the other hand Theo also did not want these guards to scare Kalina.
After seeing the situation calm down a bit, Theo pulled back his technique. Then throw something at the old guard earlier.
"Look, out of all the people here, you're the only one who can see things more wisely, so I hope that token can solve this misunderstanding."
The old man who received the token from Theo trembled his hand when he realized that the one in his hand was the official family token of God, the token was silver, with the family symbol sculpted in it, above the symbol there is the writing of the number three, and now it is lit up brightly, which indicates the owner of this token is the true young master of their third house.
Family tokens are usually divided into three types. The first was the gold token, which only the Lord and his brothers had. Next there is the silver token, which indicates the owner is the children directly from the Lord. And lastly there is the bronze token that signifies as a distant family of God, usually owned by the elders.
While the number above the symbol is only on gold and silver tokens, which indicates the order of birth of the token owner. The family token itself can not be faked, because this token is made using a special method that is tied to the bloodline, just dripping blood on it, then the token will light up, and the token will be, confirm the truth of the owner's blood.
"I'm sorry for my carelessness young master, I can't manage well my colleagues!"
Realizing that the one before him was indeed their third young master, the old gatekeeper immediately kowtowed in apology. And then followed by all the other gatekeepers.
While the young guard who had previously snapped at Theo, reacted even harder. Realizing he had offended the young master of his house, he became frightened and immediately went forward prostrating under Theo's feet.
"Young master, forgive this blind little man, not being able to see anything properly! Please forgive me!" His hands were trembling holding Theo's feet.
"Hmmmm... You know your mistake now huhh??" Dengus Jasia, looked very satisfied.
"Jasia, stop it, all these misunderstandings are also a little caused by your overly explosive attitude." Theo again massaged his forehead looking at Jasia's attitude.
"But young master, I just.."
"Already, already... The important thing is that all these misunderstandings have been cleared up, I was wrong not to show the token from the beginning." Theo cuts off Jasia who looks like she still wants to protest.
"And you, quickly stand up, all of you stand up. Better get back to their posts. This thing's over here, I know you're just running errands." Theo told the young man in front of him and all the officers to stand up. Not prolonging the problem.
"Next time be more careful. You guys even scared a little girl!"
Upon hearing Theo's words, all the guards became relieved, and soon obediently returned to their respective posts. Only telling the old guard who was previously ordered Theo to stay.
"Because it's calmed down, please explain what happened correctly. Why is the city closed? Theo asked the old guard.
"That problem, actually." the old man began to explain the situation.
According to the guard, a few hours ago, there was a sudden attack by several intruders. These intruders managed to enter the main castle and wound the Lord using a secret weapon that had been laced with poison. Although the identities of these intruders are unknown, many suspect that they are people from the rebel faction.
Theo's facial sharpness soon became bad as the old guard finished his explanation.
"My father's been poisoned? How's he doing now?" Ask Theo, looking very worried.
"That's what…."
"I'll forget it, I'll see for myself." Before the old guard gave an explanation, Theo cut him off. He knew he wouldn't get too good information about his father's condition from this old guard.
"Jasia, I'll move quickly from here, you accompany your sister to catch up, we meet again at the main castle." Theo.
"Good young master." Jasia answered immediately.
Without delaying the time, Theo leapt through the gate, and immediately moved swiftly leaping from one roof to another down the city buildings. He used his Mana Gravity to lighten his body.

"I'm home.."
Theo was pensive when he arrived in front of the main gate of his family castle. It has been 4 years or exactly 400 years when calculating the world of illusion as well. It's been a long time that Theo left home.
Theo only regained his senses from his daydream when the castle guards shouted asking for his identity. But once they can see Theo's face more clearly. They were immediately surprised.
"Your third young master? That really was you?"
One of the castle guards immediately recognized Theo's face. These guards had been working to guard the castle of the God family for nearly half of his life. So they could immediately recognize Theo without him having to issue his token.
"How can you. don't you…"
"Forgot that now, now quickly take me to my father's place!" Theo cut off the guard's words, he wanted to rush to see his father's condition.
"Ahhh. good! Please come through here young master!" Without delaying the guard showed me the way.
After walking for a while, Theo arrived in front of the treatment room where his father was being cared for. He hesitated to open the door in front of him for a moment. The one in the room was her father, one of the most important people in her life, whom she had not met for a very long time. This made his heart flutter, there was a hint of fear in his heart. However, driven by worry, he ventured to open the door.
"I told you, no one comes into the room first!"
Just a step into Theo's room, he was snapped by an elder. Theo recognized this elder, he was the 7th elder, the old man who was also a family doctor, the leader of the Alchemy science development division in the house.
"Ahhhhhhhhhh…. It can't be..!!!"
But after the elder turned his head and saw the person who opened the door, his expression immediately turned startled. Like seeing a ghost.
