36

Not far away from the commotion that Daniel caused, Viston Jazz gazed outside the window and saw a sight that made him drop his cup of tea.

'Has the Great Master made his move...? Still...such a heavenly sight and I doubt that even those masters could perform such a feat...' Viston's admiration for Daniel grew.

"Father...was that...master?" Megan noticed the sight of her master and with her godly constitution and physiques, it was easy for her to sense and picture the commotion.

Moreover, she was aware that what her master did had something to do with heavenly laws and it was a feat that she knew was not easy to achieve.

With her knowledge and mastery of her talents, she was informed about certain knowledge that wasn't known in this mortal realm.

As such, her loyalty towards him had overly exceeded the common term of fanatics. And unfamiliar emotions that she didn't know had begun to show itself.

"Yeah, that was the great master and we should fasten our pace. It seems like we should ally with the Tristan Family" He announced.

"Alright Father" She smiled widely and being able to walk gave her the bliss of her life. It was a feeling that was hard to describe. It was like she had unlocked a hidden door that brought happiness and the key to that was Daniel.

Once Viston and Megan had fastened their pace, those behind them followed as well.

There were figures of hundreds of cultivators

who followed and represented the Jazz power force.

However, this wasn't used to threaten the Tristan Family, but rather to show their sincerity and also the powerful force that will be added and combined with the Tristan Family.

On the other hand, the Pilio Family members immediately were alarmed by the situation.

"W-Which great expert had we offended!?"

"W-What's going on!?"

"Are my eyes deceiving me!?"

"Heavens! T-This is a work similar to those of Immortals!" All of them had chaotic reactions and they feared what was happening to them.

"Which one of you is the patriarch of the Pilio Family?" Amidst their confusion and fear, Daniel approached a group of cultivators outside their mansion which had floated above in the sky.

Noticing a young man approaching them with an uneditable aura, all of them were tensed and they could sense that the young man before them was a behemoth.

"I'm the current patriarch. T-To what pleasure have we gained from an esteemed expert such as yourself?" The man who proclaimed himself as the patriarch introduced himself with a trembling body.

"It is not me that wishes to show myself upon you, but rather, it's something that all of you had gravely done" Daniel spoke as he pointed his finger to Fresia.

Now that all of them noticed the presence of a certain woman, their eyes widened from shock and no words could describe the confusion in their mind.

"How have you been Patraich Clint?" Fresia greeted with mockery in her voice.

"It must be nice to see my once-upon-a-time family and clan together with you" She added with a smirk.

"P-Patriarch Fresia...?" Clint couldn't understand what was happening and when he eyed the figure of Daniel and her, something clicked inside his mind.

"I-If it's-

Before Clint could explain, she interrupted.

"I'm not here for your nonsense nor do I wish to hurt anyone. Just let me talk with the Romenia clan and I'll be done soon" She didn't want to waste her time on these idiots and she just wished to settle her problems once and for all.

"T-This can be naturally done" Clint respectfully said. He wasn't an idiot to realize that Fresia was no longer the woman that he knew. Moreover, with such an expert by his side, there was no way he could touch a single strand of her hair.

Afterward, Clint brought Fresia to the mansion, and while the family members panicked, he calmed them down while ensuring that nothing would go wrong...at least for now.

In a room, Fresia was on one side with Daniel, and on the other side, there was her once-upon-a-time family.

They were trembling and vividly shaking as they were aware of the commotion previously, and the one who caused this was none other than the man who sat beside Fresia.

"I don't want to say so much and neither do I want to waste my time saying the unnecessary stuff. So I'll go straight to the point. What made you guys betray me?" Her voice was cold and there was no emotion in her expression.

It was as though what she saw wasn't her family, but a piece of trash that she can't wait for the garbage collector to terminate.

Her ex-husband and her 2 sons couldn't speak up. Their words were stuck in their throat and their mouths were twitching uncontrollably.

Daniel didn't interrupt and neither did he wish to do. He respects Fresia's wishes and these are the obstacles that she needed to overcome.

"Y-You never once loved me Mother" Eventually, the Eldest son spoke as tears began to flow out from his eyes.

"No matter how much I did or tried to prove myself, you never once praised me! You don't know or don't even care about what pain I'm going through. All you ever cared about was results and cultivation! Nothing more nothing less!"

He added and his years of anguish could finally be heard.

"And you know who was the one that comforted me when I was at my lowest!? When my mentality struct at its peak, I thought I could rely on my mother but No! The one that I cared about as my mother had said to me that all of these emotions are trivial! She didn't even care nor did she show any ounce of love!"

"Was it hard to give words of encouragement or a simple gesture of 'you did your best?' And yet all I received was more expectation and less love, so tell me, Mother, who could I rely on when my own mother wasn't there for me when I needed her the most!?"

His heart hurt and no matter what, there was still some form of love he had for Fresia as his blood related mother, but the pain he had gone through overwhelmed that.
