Chapter 62: Adrian Guessed Successfully
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The White household had been particularly chaotic the past few days.
Ever since Old Man White had brought Adrian and Alice home.
Heart-wrenching screams could be heard coming from the hundred-year-old castle every day.
The servants had solemn expressions. They dared no make mistakes.
Their master, Old Man White, had not smiled for a long time.
“Young Master Adrian, please bear with it. Your legs are seriously injured. As long as you can hold on for a little while longer, I have confidence that you’ll recover…”
The doctor comforted him while controlling his medic-type Battle Beast to change the dressing on Adrian’s crippled legs.
“Damn that Locke! It hurts so much…”Adrian, who was lying on the bed, was covered in sweat.
Under Old Man White’s choice, the doctor did not use any anesthetic, because there was a chance that the method would leave a lifelong side effect, although it was very small…
However, for the sake of the White family’s reputation, Adrian had to endure everything.
“Mm… It’s been hard on you. A child of the White family is not allowed to be a cripple.” Old Man White, who was sitting on a luxurious leather chair by the French window, looked at his son’s situation. There was no discomfort on his face, and his heart was as calm as water.
After completing the treatment for the day, the doctor left after receiving his pay.
Adrian gradually calmed down. Just as he was about to curse a few more words. He found that his father was staring at him with a pair of terrifying eyes!
Under the glow of the moonlight, the old man was like an eagle eyeing its prey.
Old Man White was the first to speak. He scratched his exaggerated aquiline nose and said, “Do you know? All three of your brothers are the top graduates of the Federation’s Diamond Class, and you… seem to want to break this tradition.”
“No! Father, it’s not that I’m weak, but that Locke is really too strong!” I keep feeling that he’s different from us traditional Beastmasters. He seems to have some strange power that can make ordinary Battle Beasts stronger! “I’ve seen many Forest Series Battle Beasts similar to his two-headed snake… ”
“Tss…” The pain in his legs made him pause for two seconds, before continuing, “That kind of trash can only reach blue quality at most, but Locke’s one is a rose gold quality! It’s really very strange!”
Hearing this, Old Man White’s stiff expression finally twitched a little, but this was not from surprise. It was from anger!
Adrian’s correct intuition was extremely ridiculous to him!
It was even somewhat insulting to him!
Ever since the first Battle Beast was tamed by humans hundreds of years ago, the ways that Beastmasters improved their abilities and strengthened their Battle Beasts was constantly being perfected.
There were common knowledge that was made public, and there were also secret ways to do so.
However, no matter which method it was, Old Man White had memorized all of them!
‘What kind of strange way could make ordinary Battle Beasts become stronger?’
‘If there really was such a way, why would the people of the world still work so hard to earn money to hatch Beast Eggs?’
‘If Locke had truly possessed such terrifying abilities, why hasn’t he become the Emperor of the Federation?’
These words were clearly the excuse that this unfilial son had come up with because of his failure!
Old Man White suddenly stood up, and he glared viciously at the useless son of his!
He wanted to inflict bodily harm to him, but looking at how miserable Adrian was, he could not bear to do so.
Helpless, he smashed the door and left.
After returning to his study, he discovered that the secretary who served him had been waiting for a long time.
“Master, this is a reply letter from the Federal Academy and the Federal Academy…” The Secretary said respectfully.
After learning about his son and daughter from Instructor Ollie, Old Man White knew that they had violated the laws of the federation. Those crimes were enough to send Adrian and Alice to prison for a few years.
Therefore, he quickly sought help from the people in the court to nip this matter in the bud.
At the same time, he also sent a letter of complaint to the principal of the federal school, hoping that he could chase the little b*stard who hurt his children out of the school.
The letter from the court finally made him feel at ease. At least his children would be fine.
However, the letter from the Federal School made him fly into a rage!
“Bang!”
He directly smashed the office desk into two pieces!
The secretary seemed to be used to it and was not frightened. Instead, he picked up the reply letter from the school and opened it to take a look.
There was not a single word on it. Instead, it was a simple sketch.
Its content was a hand with its middle finger raised!
Naturally, Old Man White knew who it was from this was!
He roared angrily, “Hobrick! You old fart! I will fight you to the end!”
Secretary Mars sighed. He had never thought that the relationship between the two old men would reach such a stage.
Having followed Old Man White for more than thirty years, he knew very well that the two of them had a very close relationship in the past!
They were both talented Beastmasters and students of renown masters. They both had astonishing battle records and had gathered a large number of followers.
However, over twenty years ago, they finally began to fight over their different ideals.
From opposing ideologies, to insulting each other, to a showdown, a pair of good friends who used to talk about everything finally became enemies.
In the end, it evolved to the point where the higher-ups of the federation had to mediate.
As the White family was very rich, they used the white family’s huge funds to donate to the Federation’s Advanced Beastmaster Academy and obtain a certain amount of shares to temporarily suppress the anger of both sides.
This peaceful resolution had also allowed both sides to obtain the benefits they wanted.
However, in Mars’ view, all of this was just the calm before the storm.
“Master, please don’t be angry. If you allow me, I will sneak into the academy and kill this student who insulted young master and young miss…” Mars knelt down on one knee.
Old White looked at this loyal subordinate and finally calmed down a little. He clasped his hands behind his back and said, “With your strength, that kid will definitely die. But… I also feel that this kid’s background is not simple. First, investigate his background. If he has the support of a large family, we need to plan around it…”
“If he doesn’t! Then arrange for someone. You know what to do!”
Mars nodded and said, “There is only one result for daring to insult the White family… the whole family will be executed.”
This cold-blooded sentence sounded indifferent when it came out of his mouth.
“Hobrick, I’ll start by executing your student…”the killing intent in Old White’s eyes grew stronger.
…
During the next two weeks, Locke was in a good mood.
On one hand, there were no people like Adrian to bother him. On the other hand, he had gained plenty of knowledge.
Especially in terms of elemental knowledge, he had made a great breakthrough.
Not only was he was publicly recognized as the head of the Diamond Class in terms of combat, he was also ranked in the top three in the written exams.
With the help of the System, he felt that he was on the fast track of life.
After taking dinner, as usual, he cultivated Incantation.
However, his phone suddenly rang.
