101 He Would Attack Our Family

Trevon was waiting in his room. He sat on a spirit wood chair and took the time to smell the fragrant tea aroma.

"Knock... Knock... Knock..."

"Who?"

"It is me, Aya, Young Master." Trevon heard Aya's voice. She seemed a bit sleepy from her voice. It was softer than what she was usually.

Trevon walked toward the door and opened it.

"What is this?" He looked at Aya who seemed to hurriedly get out of her sleep. Her hair was still disheveled in some parts. The young cultivator also only wore a simple outer robe.

"The elders ask you to prepare. They will call you soon."

"Fine. I am not going to sleep." Trevon felt a bit sleepy, but the tea had helped him to wake. He knew he would be asked many things.

"I will be waiting outside then." Aya bowed. She took a place before meditated on a lotus position.

Trevon took a blanket from his storage ring. "Use this! I only have you and Marcus now. If you see anything dark above, go into my room."

"Yes, Young Master." Aya took the blanket.

Trevon returned to his room and washed his head to refresh himself. He changed his clothes before enjoying his tea while reading more novels again. [Sigh... These heroes were so cool. If I only have half their bravery.]

"You are not bad! You win the first match. This Rabbink will cheer you to win the next match." Master Rabbink encouraged Trevon.

"Blurtt..." Trevon sprayed the tea in his mouth. "There are more fights?"

"Of course, a blessed child of God against an arrogant young master. Their battles will never end."

"Don't tell me his destination is the capital!" Trevon looked at the Rabbink.

"This Rabbink couldn't tell you the detail. You have to uncover the detail yourself. This was why I gave you a mission to hear the rumor. If you prepared based on the rumor, you might even reduce his Hero Armor two times."

"What do you mean, Rabbink?" Trevon saw the bonus before about Hero Armor, but he hadn't had the time to ask it to Master Rabbink.

"Every time you force a child of God into a near-death end, a special blessing is activated to make them survive the impossible. You have to deplete the blessing before you can defeat them."

"I don't understand." Trevon admitted.

"Have you read the novel and found the hero always survived by an inch?"

"Yes. All novels were like that." Trevon nodded. He always wanted to be like those heroes which made the death became afraid of them.

"Why could the hero survive?"

"Because they are the main character?" Trevon hoped the answer was yes. He had a novel written with his name. [I will survive toward the end, right?]

"No. There are stories with bad endings. Hero Armor is the reason. Some people also called them luck or Hero Aura. This saved the hero over and over. However, to balance thing, Yet, there is a limit to this cheat. This aura can recover, but it will take time." Master Rabbink floated next to Trevon. It landed on the table. The Rabbink used its materialization ability. An image of a green young man appeared on it.

Trevon loved that. It was easier to know from the seeing.

"The child of God is a person blessed with special power and destiny. Actually, the universe is the one which blessed them with lucky destiny." Master Rabbink materialized shining particles in the air and poured it toward the green young man. The materialize young man filled with some energies. His body turned shining.

"When the child is in danger, a part of the blessing will be consumed. It will activate the Hero Aura. A loser might suddenly get the strength to make his comeback. Even it could make the hero survived the impossible." The materialized young man showed a similar thing. He made a comeback from a fight, fell into a crater but survived, and sucked by a tornado but survived.

"Even better, after they survive those dangers, they will always meet with a lucky encounter." The materialized young man found a treasure chest.

"However, this luck will consume the energy. Until one day it will be empty if the child of God doesn't wait for it to recover." Finally, after repeating the lucky survivals and treasure gatherings, the energy was gone from the man. His body turned dimmed and dimmed.

"Without the blessing, this child of God will be the same as other people. Only after this, a child of God can be defeated." Master Rabbink ended its story.

"I want those. I want to face danger and survive easily like them. Hahaha."

"You can't have it. It isn't in your destiny." Master Rabbink complained.

"What? This is unfair."

"You have Young Master Aura. That is balanced." Master Rabbink said.

"Young Master Aura? What is the benefit of this aura? He remembered activating it on the beast wave."

"First, you will always have a lucky chance to get a backing. If you don't have a backing and activated it, somehow you will find someone to back you."

"That is not bad."

"Second, you will live a happy and extravagant life. If you have lack of money you can activate it, to solve your problem."

"Yeah! I start to feel good having this aura. Wait! You didn't tell me when I was poor after you took my treasure."

"This aura is also something not easy to refill. You will need it for the third effect during the beast wave. This aura will make you harder to kill. No matter how many times you lose, you will always come back stronger as long as you haunt the child of God for revenge."

"This is similar to those Hero Aura. I even come stronger." Trevon felt happy.

"Yeah... However, usually, those young masters have to pay a price."

"Eh?" Trevon didn't feel he would like the explanation next.

"Like selling your soul or body to evil grandpa."

Trevon started feeling the cold sweat on his back. "You are not an evil grandpa, right? My body is only for my fiancée and my future wives."

"What?" Master Rabbink materialized a fist. "Who wanted your furless and non-fluffy body?"

"BAK..." Trevon felt happy even when the punch was painful.

"No matter what! I don't like anything evil." Trevon had read those young masters in the novel became stronger, but they become an insane monster in return.

"Do not worry! You would be fine as long as you don't get defeated."

"Yes. I won't get defeated." Trevon felt relaxed. He poured some tea into his cup again.

"However..."

"Please, no!"

"This aura had a weakness."

"Gah!" Trevon knew it would be the bad news. "Weakness?"

"Yes, you will have a bad luck if you get closer to a child of God."

"What do you mean?"

"Like in the normal hero story. When you want to get close to a lady, if your love rival was a child of God, you will lose."

"What?" Trevon was devastated.

Those perverted children of God in the novel always monopolized the beautiful jade-like beauties. Even worse, those children of God also female attractors. Wherever they go all ladies threw themselves into the children of God. A slap and those ladies would fall in love. A kiss and those ladies would never forget about the hero. A wrong drink and those ladies would need the child of God to save them from aphrodisiac.

[No. No. No. I will never get close to a child of God. They are enemies of other men.] Trevon decided.

"Too bad, a young master aura always attracted those children of God." Master Rabbink said. "They would take your girls, take your treasure, or your position."

"They are evil!" Trevon slammed the table.

"In their eyes, you are the evil. You forced yourself into a girl. You monopolized treasures and often grabbed it forcefully. You even used your background to get your position."

"What? No."

"You want to deny? Gwahahaha. What have you gotten with your own ability?"

"Eh?" Trevon had to think. Since he was young, he got all the treasures from his family. His money actually from his father. His martial arts and cultivation technique were from his family. Even his fiancée was from his parents.

[She didn't get forced, right?] Trevon asked himself. [I am not that bad, right?]

"Of course. You have managed to get destiny energy from your own effort. Congratulations!!!" Master Rabbink threw some confetti in the room. It tried to influence Trevon to do more missions.

Trevon felt happy. [Yes, I have done something with my own power. Those missions.]

"Good! You should start doing some missions soon." Master Rabbink cheered Trevon. "There is more mission available. You can start by learning another flashy martial art!" Master Rabbink encouraged Trevon.

"I will later after I arrived at the capital..." Trevon had planned to work hard making achievement trough missions.

"EH! Wait! I also have made those Super Sexy Restaurants. It gave me some profits. I also a master of several profession." Trevon complained. He wasn't that brain dead. "You just want to make me do more missions. Can I have a holiday for a month or a year? I have been tired of table-pointing for the last two years."

"BAK..." Master Rabbink sent another punch.

"You are one of the laziest people who I have ever met. Two years and you still a Peak Rank 1 warrior? Poor Rabbink. Poor Rabbink. My other students must have become a Rank 3 warrior by now. Haven't you read those heroes in the novel leveled faster than rabbits joining?"

"I took the save but steady path." Trevon said.

"Yes. However, the troubles wouldn't wait for you. You have always to be one step stronger than the trouble."

"Eh?"

"For example, you managed to win today. However, the Debt Collector met another lucky chance today. The Lone World Killer would help him to remodel his body. The next time you meet him, he would be stronger than now."

"Sh*t!"

"You even captured his brother. Do you know what happened to those children of God when you hurt people closed to them?"

Trevon turned pale. He started to feel some cold sweat.

"He would chase you back."

"No. I have to save his brother." Trevon stood from his chair and went outside to save the captured Debt Collector.

[What?] Master Rabbink couldn't believe it. A young master was getting out of character and wanted to save a child of God's friend.

"You have a good intention, but that is too late. He had already been captured by Imperial families. You can do nothing." Master Rabbink said. "No matter what, the Debt Collector had already become your enemies, even if you save his brother."

"Because I am a McArthur?"

"Yup. You and the Debt Collector are destined enemies. You have enjoyed the benefit of McArthur family. Therefore, you will also get the trouble from being in a family with other troublemakers."

"Can't I just live a carefree life?" He had just passed his first kill, and then another big trouble appeared.

"Yes." Master Rabbink looked serious.

"Eh? Seriously." Trevon didn't know Master Rabbink would answer yes.

"Quit any worldly desire. Pride, Greed, Lust, Envy, Gluttony, Wrath, and Sloth. Become a Monk!"

"..." Trevon didn't want this. He didn't want to die a virgin man.

"Your elders are about to call you. You will face some questionings. Remember getting stronger is your path to your desires. Gwahahaha." Master Rabbink disappeared while taking the tablet away.

"Knock... Knock... Knock..."

"Yes?"

"Grand Elder asked you." Trevon heard Ernest's voice.

"Wait a minute!"

Trevon took his belonging to his storage ring. He opened the door and saw Ernest was outside. Other than him, he also saw Marcus. His bodyguard was fine.

"Please follow me, Young Master!"

"Yes."

Trevon was led by Ernest to the Command Room. the Goldcave Pavilion consisted of several buildings. While its size couldn't be compared to the pavilion in other cities, it was very big compared to other buildings in Goldcave.

The style was similar to other Heavenly Phoenix luxury buildings. Several pagodas with many courtyards made the beautiful complex.

Trevon followed Ernest passing several courtyards with beautiful blue glowed garden. They arrived at a large five floors pagoda. Ernest led Trevon to the highest floor. They passed several examinations by family guards before they reached the meeting room.

"Knock... Knock... Knock..." Ernest knocked one of the doors.

A young man in elder robe opened the door. Trevon didn't know the elder but he was sure that the elder was another old warrior of the family, unlike his appearance.

Ernest whispered to the elder and the elder nodded.

"You are Trevon McArthur?" The elder asked Trevon.

"Yes."

"I am Elder Satin McArthur. Follow me! We need some information."

"Yes, Elder." Trevon looked at Aya and Marcus. Both waited outside with the guards and Ernest.

Trevon was brought to the meeting room. Inside, he saw fourteen elders seated around a large table. Some were the elders who followed the caravan, the others were unknown elders whom Trevon hadn't met before. Including Elder Satin, there were fifteen elders in the room. This was a bit short compared to the assembly in Redwood or Bluestar.

"Trevon greets Elder Assembly." He had to follow the protocol. Sometimes Trevon wished to be like those heroes in the novel. They didn't need to have one meeting and another. Nevertheless, he lived in a family with many heads. A meeting was necessary to make sure the family moved as one goal.

"Good Morning, Trevon." Grand Elder Pieter greeted Trevon.

"You are Trevon McArthur, son of Alvaro McArthur?" Another elder asked.

"Yes." Trevon knew the best method in an Elder Assembly interrogation was to answer as needed.

"Based on the information, you were at Melody Cave." An elder asked.

"Yes, Elder."

"Tell us what happened!"

"Yesterday, I met with a young master. He introduced me with a place called Melody Cave." Trevon told the story of how he came to Goldcave, how he met with Rado, and how he hired the twin ladies to make some paintings. Nevertheless, he told as if the painting was a normal painting.

The elders gave an understanding look. They had heard the report of Trevon and his debauchery in Bluestar.

"I was in the room when suddenly people screamed..." Trevon told the story. "We then fought our way into the outside."

"What do you call those monsters?" One of the elders asked.

"Fallen Body. That was what Master Creator told me." This wasn't a lie.

"So, based on Master Creator's words, we need to do some Holy element purification?"

"Yes, Elder." Trevon answered.

All elders in the room looked into an elder. The elder was a beautiful woman with long hair. "I have read about that method. However, it is hard to do it. The ritual would take thirty minutes. I also haven't tried it before." She seemed the one who in charge of such a thing.

"How could we fight an undying enemy?" Another elder shouted. "If we are careless, we would turn into one of them. We should recall our warrior from fighting in the front line."

The elders continued to debate. Trevon only stood in front of while hearing the elders shouted at each other.

"So? Your current fighting method is using a talisman to intercept him from using his poisonous vial?"

"Yes, Master Creator who told me that." Trevon blamed everything to the Rabbink using the lying trick. Actually, the talisman was his biggest advantage. He was rich and could use many.

"I am not. Why don't you take credit for your achievement in front of the elder? Gwahahaha." Master Rabbink suddenly appeared before Trevon.

[Sh*t Up! I don't want to be considered as a chosen candidate.]

"They can't hear me." Master Rabbink disappeared again.

Those elders continued their debate on how to fight the fallen bodies.

"Fine. Based on our information, only the formation at Melody Cave was broken. Do you know why?"

"Master Creator. He didn't like being confined, so he broke the formation." Trevon had practiced removing his lies. Besides, the Rabbink really who gave him the method to break the formation.

"A formation?"

"Yes."

"Did he tell you how to break those barriers?"

"No." Trevon shook his head. He didn't know how to explain. While he could break the barriers, but he used his cheat skill to do it.

"Hm..." Those elders looked into Grand Elder Pieter.

"I can vouch about Master Creator." Pieter spoke. "I have been around Trevon for two years, we all knew he was there from the foods, but even I couldn't detect him. Breaking a formation is no problem for him." Grand Elder Pieter had received the report of missing foods in the city. Even those in a secure vault could also disappear.

"Could you ask him to break some formation for us?" One of the elders asked. From his position, Trevon assumed that he was similar to Charles.

"Eh? There are still some barriers in the city."

"Yes. There are a few. Some of our elders are discussing with other families, whether we should break it or not."

"I might be able, but there will be some fallen bodies inside." Trevon said.

"Yes. That is why we are discussing right now. Some of our warriors also trying to contain the monster."

[Eh?] Trevon knew that his family actually used Elder Assembly as an excuse to delay the time as long as possible. They didn't want to be the first to enter the dangerous territory.

"Elders! I want to say something." Trevon raised his hand.

"Yes. You may speak." The assembly leader also raised his hand to keep people silent. All elders stopped their discussion.

"When I told the attacker that I am a McArthur young master. He said it is just earlier than planned. Our family is one of his targets." This was the most powerful trick of a young master could use. Asking for help from his family. Poor children of God couldn't do that, only a young master could use this advantage.

The room turned silent.

"What?! Could you swear on Aurmoth and our Ancestor that it was true?" Another elder spoke with a grave tone.

"Yes. I can swear on our Ancestor. I believe sooner or later he would attack our family. Perhaps in the capital!"

"Are you serious, Trevon?" Grand Elder Pieter frowned.

[This is similar to the rumor.] Grand Elder Pieter also sent a spiritual sense to communicate with the meeting leader.

"Yes. It is not only that..." Trevon told the story how he tried to return to the pavilion but met the Debt Collector on the way.

"Trevon contributed to the capture!" One of the elders shouted. "We could use this to get the access to the captured attacker. We must eliminate this danger to the family."

"Yes. Let us go to kill those attackers!" Another Elder also exclaimed.

Trevon sighed. Only if the family in danger, the elders would react. If it was unrelated families, they would sit and wait for the benefits. That was the face of cultivation family.

"You should wait outside, Trevon. The elder will continue with our discussion."

"Yes, Elders." Trevon bowed before left the place. He waited outside for five minutes.

"You will get your lucky chance soon. Gwahahaha." Master Rabbink appeared next to Trevon.
