Mi'lady we are under attack.

"Exactly, the Hakiku family are the only ones with the unique skill to forge weapons like this." Vlad stated.

Gigz paused and sighed before resting his back on the chair, "So what now? What do you think they are after?" He asked.

Vlad folded the handkerchief back and gave one of the maids to take it back inside before responding.

"I don't know, it's safe to say, their goal reaches far more than just having fun,".

"Well knowing this, I could help strengthen securities around the town just to be on the safe side." Gigz offered.

"That would be most appreciated." Vlad thanked.

They suddenly heard the footsteps and neighs of horses moving toward the mansion, Gigz stood up and went to check.

With a smile on his face, he turned and looked at Vlad, "My son has arrived, shall we go, Duke Vlad," He uttered with a smile.

Luke, the first son of Gigz, got down from the carriage with a woman wearing a white uniform standing beside him.

She had blue ponytail hair and green eyes, with a white uniform that wa perfectly fitted on her body.

Luke got down from the carriage and took the mansion in, "It hasn't changed a bit over the years." He muttered.

He and his assistant walked towards the door and standing at the entrance was Gigz who was patiently waiting for him.

"Father." Luke uttered, he walked up to Gidz and gave him a quick hug before pulling away.

His eyes were roaming about before he faced his father back, "Father? Where is she? I don't see her anywhere." He asked curiously.

Gigz laughed, "Don't be so impatient my boy, she's waiting for you inside, come on." He said and walked into the mansion.

Taking a deep breath and setting his clothes, Luke walked in after his father, the inside caught his eyes as he found himself looking around.

"This way, my son." Gigz led.

"Alright." Luke responded.

Following his father, he walked straight to the dining room where Vlad and his two children, Erza and Christian were seated.

As soon as he spotted Erza, a smile hit his lips, he was staring at her so hard that he didn't hear when his father was calling for him.

"Luke!" Gigz yelled.

"Yes! Father?" Luke immediately snapped out of it and replied to his father.

"I sure hope you haven't forgotten the Duke of this town, Duke Vlad the war Lord?" Gigz asked.

Luke smiled in response to the question, "Of course not, it is an honor to stand before you." He said.

"The honor is all mine, do have your seat." Vlad said calmly.

Gigz and Luke sat down on the chair and they began dining, after they were done and the maids were bringing in dessert, Vlad asked a question.

"Luke… are you prepared for the engagement?" Vlad asked.

Erza chocked on her food from the surprise as she started coughing as soon as Vlad asked the question. She picked up a glass of water and began gulping it down.

Luke had a smile on his face when he heard the question, "Of course, I am your Dukeship" He replied.

"Dukeship?" Christian muttered to himself as he tried to hold down his laughter.

"Great, exactly what I needed to hear, the engagement will be held in two days…"

"What!"

Erza interrupted Vlad as she yelled, standing up from her chair and slamming her hands on the dining table.

"Father? This is not right. Do I not get a say in this?" Erza yelled.

Luke stood up from this chair too, "Erza? Are you perhaps opposed to our engagement?" He asked with a bit of sadness in his voice.

Erza looked to the side, "I need to use the restroom." She uttered and ran up the stairs to her room.

Gidz and Luke were both shocked, looking at Vlad to see if he could explain what was going on.

Vlad just grabbed his wine, "She's probably going through puberty." He uttered before sipping his wine.

......

Erza ran into her room and slammed the door before falling flat on her bed, "God I hate this house!" She yelled.

She slowly lifted her head from the bed to look outside the window to see a bird pecking on the glass.

Erza stood up and opened the window, but the bird just ended up flying away, she groaned and rested her head on the window.

"Engagement? I'm pretty sure I can take him one on one, I don't wanna marry someone weaker than me." She muttered to herself.

She then noticed that Luke and his father were boarding their Carriers to leave for their home.

"No wait!" Erza shouted.

She ran out of the room and down the stairs till she got downstairs, but she was already too late.

Vlad, Gigz, and Luke had already gone, Erza sighed and was about to go back inside when she spotted Sebastian watering the garden.

A smile hit her face as she called out, "Sebastian!" She yelled, waving at him to come over.

With Sebastian's help, Erza took another carrier and rode after Gidz and her father to see if she could catch up.

Sebastian was seated beside Erza in his usual Butler uniform, looking left and right continuously.

"Are you okay Sebastian?" Erza asked when she noticed his movements.

Sebastian sighed, "leaving the mansion was not a good idea Milady, I don't think your father would be happy about this." He said.

Erza diverted her eyes with her hands tucked as she looked outside through the window, "it's not like I'm going somewhere else, I'm just going to meet him." She said.

The place went awkwardly quiet for a while, until Erza uttered, "Sebastian what is that?" She asked.

"Is that a Cyhyper?" She asked.

"Cyhyper?" Sebastian moved closer to look and saw something like a wolf charging toward their Carrier.

"Look out!" He yelled, pushing Erza's face on the chair.

The huge wolf slammed against the carrier and almost knocked it off balance, but the rider was quick to increase the horse's speed.

Erza stood up from the chair, panting heavily from the way Sebastian held her face on the chair.

"Sebastian… were those?" She muttered.

Sebastian grunted, "Damn it!", folding his hand sleeves up, "Milady we are under attack, whatever you do, don't move an inch from where you are." He said with a serious look on his face.

Following the carrier from behind were giant wolves, numbered four, chasing down the carrier with incredible speed backing them up.
