“Father?”
As Daniel suddenly lost his temper and fell into a rage, Casey seemed a little confused. His arms twisted around his body unnaturally, and he appeared to be at a loss.
“Gerant, right? You are a talented person sent by the branch family to be the mayor of a border town. I remember that there is such a thing, indeed! Has your term ended? You can go back to the border now,” Daniel took a deep breath and said indifferently to Gerant.
Even though his words were very tactful, everyone could hear that he was secretly banishing Gerant to the border. In other words, he did not want to see Gerant there.
That made many people from the branch families look at Gerant with pity. Initially, they had wanted to curry favor with him because Gerant had platinum-tier strength and had a relationship with Watson. In the end, Gerant’s words just made Daniel unhappy.
Daniel had always stayed in the floating city and operated in the shipping industry. However, he was suddenly at the capital. Everyone knew what he was doing. He had heard of Casey’s great feat and wanted to show off. It was not even Casey’s credit but Watson’s. Gerant could not even imagine such a simple thing.
“It’s a pity. I had wanted to use Gerant’s favor to build a relationship with Watson, but now it seems like it doesn’t matter anymore! Watson was imprisoned in the dungeon because he was a genius and had too much pride. After returning to the royal city, he even contradicted His Majesty. I did not expect the people around him would also behave like that.”
Some of the people from the branch family could not help but shake their heads.
After experiencing the big battle in the sky, the Ptolemy family’s manor was also affected. Fortunately, Daniel was at the capital at that time with a large number of guards. In addition, he hid in the manor at the beginning of the battle, so he was not even injured. However, because of that, Daniel did not know much about what happened during the battle.
Daniel only heard that Watson had summoned his guards from the border, but he also had help from the sea folks and the dragons. He did not find it strange that Watson could do that. After all, Watson had let the sea folks and tens of thousands of slaves go when they were in the floating city. Perhaps the so-called sea folks that Watson had summoned were the slaves that had been let go.
After that battle, Watson was pardoned by the King and was allowed to leave the prison. The interval between Watson’s attack, the end of the battle, and His Majesty’s pardoning was very short, but it was as if it had been planned long ago.
It was not only Daniel who felt that way. The people from the other families also felt the same. No matter what, Watson was still the most powerful genius in the kingdom. There was no harm in trying to rope him into their family. However, after seeing Gerant rebuking Daniel, they dispelled the thoughts in their hearts.
After all, they were part of the Ptolemy family. Before roping in Watson, they first had to live well within the family.
“Master Daniel, you want to expel me from the Ptolemy family just because I spoke the truth to protect Young Master Watson?” Gerant raised his head and asked in return.
“Are you questioning me?”
Daniel’s eyes narrowed into slits.
“Gerant, don’t say anything.” Someone from a branch family tugged at the corner of Gerant’s clothes. Gerant did not care and shook his head. “I’m not questioning the head of the family. I don’t have the guts to do that. I’m just curious! But now I’ve roughly guessed his thoughts. I’ll pack my things and leave the Ptolemy family.”
There was no anger in Gerant’s expression. Instead, it was filled with disappointment. He had only been in the Ptolemy family for more than a day. During that time, he had found out about the conflict between Watson and the Ptolemy family in the floating city. He had wanted to resolve the conflict between the two, but Daniel’s actions at that moment made him feel a chill in his heart.
He did not feel that he had done anything wrong. On the contrary, Daniel had twisted the truth in order to show off his son. After being accused by others, he became angry out of humiliation. He did not have the bearing of a family head at all.
“There’s no need to wait. You can leave now! Seeing that you’re so protective of Watson, you should have a good relationship with him. I wonder if Watson will still take you in after he finds out that you’ve been chased away by the Ptolemy family.”
Daniel stretched out his hand and pointed outside the manor. “Gerant, from now onward, you’re no longer a member of the Ptolemy family. I’ll ask Watson how he taught his subordinates.”
“Seriously? He actually disowned Gerant?”
“Looks like the family head is really angry this time.”
A group of people from the branch families whispered to each other. No one dared stand up to Gerant.
Gerant’s face alternated between green and ashen as Daniel questioned him. He was silent and was about to turn around and leave when a youthful laugh suddenly came from the direction of the manor’s entrance.
“Master Daniel, I noticed you got so angry the moment I arrived! Calm down. I’ll be the one to instruct my subordinates. There’s no need for you to worry about it.
Everyone looked toward the direction of the voice and discovered that Watson was slowly walking into the manor. A fat man walked behind him, and he was winking at Gerant. He said, “Gerant, it seems like you are the same as me. You are not welcomed into the family either! I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been by Young Master Watson’s side for too long, but I feel bored when I look at those people who are trying to flatter me. It’s not that it’s not good to do so, but they haven’t found someone worthy to serve. Their standards are too low.”
“Lubin, it seems that you have the same thoughts as me,” Gerant replied and quickly walked in front of Watson. He knelt on one knee and said respectfully, “The Mayor of Monte Town, Gerant, pays his respects to Young Master Watson. I’ve made a fool out of you just now.”
“Get up. I’m here to pick you up. Next, I’m going to give you and Lubin a few missions.”
Watson helped Gerrard up. Then, he looked around and shook his head slightly. “The environment here is too bad. It’s not suitable for you anyway. I’ll give you two a decent place to live.”
The environment was too bad?
Watson’s words were like needles piercing the ears of the Ptolemy family members, especially when Daniel, whose face had already darkened. “Watson, I heard that you’ve achieved quite a bit in the capital and even obtained the title as the strongest genius in the kingdom. However, isn’t it inappropriate to speak in such a tone in front of me? Your master and I are old friends. No matter what, I am your elder.”
“Watson, you’re here!”
Before Daniel could finish his sentence, Casey had already rushed forward and stood in front of Watson with a smile. “I’ve just told my family about you. I’ve only had good things to say about you. I wonder if you can give me a potion that can upgrade a person to a platinum-tier angel. If you’re willing to do that, I’ll do anything.”
It was not just Casey. The sleeping bag dragon on his shoulder seemed to have seen his family when it saw Watson. It instantly left Casey and went to hug Watson’s cheek and let out an intimate cry.
That scene made the Ptolemaic family members feel a bit awkward.. Daniel’s face darkened like a piece of charcoal.
