Chapter 2184 You Are Awake
She packed her stuff and left with her grandmother, Emma. It was a big day for The Cardinal Hall, everyone was just waiting for Forlevia to finally make her debut in the fighters’ scene.
However, The Cardinal Hall kept Forlevia’s departure a secret. Aside from them, nobody knew Forlevia had left.
Not even an hour after Forlevia’s departure, Celia couldn’t take it anymore. She had no children of her own, so she led a lonely life until Forlevia showed up. Now that the girl was gone, Celia just couldn’t take it.
“I’m going with her!”
Celia was about to follow Forlevia, but another elder advised, “No. You can’t keep her safe forever. She has to grow up eventually.”
His colleagues glared at him. “Fine, then you stay here. We’ll go!”
Apparently, everyone else had the same idea as Celia. It hadn’t been too long since Forlevia had set off, but they were already like cats on hot bricks.
The elders were just waiting for someone to suggest that they follow Forlevia. Of course, they supported Celia the moment she made that decision.
Noticing her colleagues’ support, Celia looked at them, and they left immediately.
“I…” The remaining elder was flabbergasted. “Hey, wait for me! I wasn’t being serious. I miss her too!” And he went together with them.
Everyone else was speechless. They couldn’t believe the elders would leave The Cardinal Hall, for that had never happened before.
With that, the elders went straight for Forlevia. Once they saw her, they heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. However, they didn’t get close. It was fine that they could see her from a distance.
“There, this is fine. We’ll just follow her quietly. We should never disturb her.”
“Yeah. We won’t get in her way. She can deal with anything that comes in her way, but if she’s in imminent danger, we’ll assist her. That way, she can train herself, and we can keep her safe,” Celia said.
Everyone else nodded. Good idea.
“Know what your problem is?” Celia chided, “You’re too rigid. Guess you old gits have been staying in one place for too long. I mean, no harm done even if we follow her right?”
“Yeah! No harm done!”
The elders grinned like children. As long as they could see Forlevia, they were content. This way, Forlevia could train herself up, and they could help her if she was in danger.
If they stayed in The Cardinal Hall, they wouldn’t be able to save her in time even if they knew she was in danger.
“Besides, we can go on a vacation too. It’s been a while since we’re out and about.”
Nobody argued, since Celia had a point.
……
Forlevia went on her journey, though unbeknownst to her, she was guarded by a group of elders. They were the most powerful bodyguards anyone could ask for.
The first thing Forlevia did after leaving The Cardinal Hall was pay her grandparents a visit. It was then she realized her father had already disappeared for three years, and there was no news about him.
Even Kirin and the others went missing. But most importantly, her mother became the public enemy and a cold-blooded murderer.
Forlevia almost went insane when she found out what happened to her parents. “What happened to you, Mommy? And where are you, Daddy? Come back, please!” she shouted.
……
At the same time, Cyrus plopped down on the floor, a look of despair filled his face. However, for an instant, he seemed to see Levi move.
Am I seeing things?
“Are you awake?” he quickly asked.
