Chapter 97: Reunion

"Good, Allynna. I will give you a month to practice bringing this bag and reach the peak in 15 minutes. If you can master it, we will go to a special place where you could cultivate your ability much more easily...."

"Another place to cultivate?" So far, she’d only done it on the peak of the Mountain and his grandfather’s island. Now he’s going to take her to a new place? Makes her curious.

"Yes. Hurry..." He said and started to walk fast. Allynna has no choice but to follow his pace. The two of them walked in the dark. A small spotlight on their chest helps them see the path ahead. After 10 minutes of walking, Allynna didn’t feel tired yet, but after 30 minutes of walking, her back started to feel heavier. It was as if the bag on her back had doubled to 80 pounds.

She checked the bag several times, but the contents remained the same.

How could the weight rise?

"Allynna... it’s only in your mind. Don’t think about the weight or how heavy it is. Just walk straight without thinking! And don’t even think of storing that bag in your mind-space." Leon slightly chuckled when he heard her thoughts.

"I’m just kidding, brother." Said Allynna with a little laugh... when Leon caught her red-handed.

Indeed a few times she wanted to keep the bag in her mind-space, she thought Leon would not see it because he was walking in front.

They walk again without speaking.

Leon is right. When she stops thinking about the bag, she feels her step more lite, and her back no longer feels stiff. Without her knowing, they had reached the peak.

They need almost two hours to arrive, and at the same time, the sun starts to rise. It was beautiful when a shade of orange appeared on the horizon. It’s not the first time she’s seen the sunrise, but she always feels amazed every time she sees it. It was hard to take her eyes off the rising sun.

"Your Highness..." Allynna suddenly hears a man’s voice call Leon. She turned her head to see behind. She was surprised because the familiar man followed them to the peak.

Why does he follow them here?

Allynna then looked to see Leon. Now Leon also saw the man in front of them...

"Xavier, why are you here?" Leon asked in an annoyed tone with an unfriendly face.

"Your Highness, apologize if I disturbed you and this young Lady. I just want to practice too. And accidentally I saw you guys here..." This is the best excuse he could think of at the moment.

Seeing the clothes this man was wearing made Allynna laugh in her heart. She knew very well this man was lying. How can he train in a suit and ankle boots!?

Xavier was amazed to see the girl in front of him. His sister is really alive and thriving.

Last night after he finished talking to Leon, he wasn’t sure if he could sleep. Afraid, when he woke up later, all of this was just a dream. Not real. He also worries Leon will erase his memory when he sleeps. He knew very well that Leon could do that.

Xavier didn’t want his seventeen years of waiting to go away just like that. He needed to hold back his sleep for a few hours until he could talk face-to-face with his little sister. So, he decided to stay overnight at Leon’s castle to see his little sister early in the morning.

Geoffrey provided him with a guest room on the first floor near the lake. But he can’t sleep at all. His mind couldn’t stop thinking. There were so many things he wanted to ask his sister and planned what she would do with her.

He stood by the window blankly, staring at the flower garden illuminated by garden lights for hours. The night was so quiet, he didn’t hear the sound of the nocturnal creatures, and even the wind didn’t seem to blow. The trees in the distance seemed to stand stiff as if frozen. After many hours of standing, he finally felt his legs stiffen a little.

He walked to the couch. He wanted to sit back and relax his legs, but he stopped abruptly. Faintly, he heard Leon talking to someone in the backyard. Instantly he turned his back and looked out the window.

He can see Leon walking with his sister to the lake in the dim light. They both wear black training outfits. Near the lake, they disappeared.

Immediately he felt worried, but when he saw Leon and his sister appear across the lake, near the forest, his worries faded.

But still, he frowned in perplexity.

Why did Leon take his sister into the forest when they should be sleeping?

Was he going to ask his sister to leave this castle to avoid him?

Damn it! Leon must have changed his mind, he must avoid them to meet.

Xavier quickly grabbed his dark green coat on the sofa and promptly exited his room.

In a hurry, he scolded Leon in his mind for setting up a shield on his castle, making him can’t teleport within this castle. He had to run faster than his usual run towards the lake area. Luckily he wasn’t too late because he saw Leon and his sister talking. He deliberated, hiding his presence and hearing their conversation.

When he hears their conversation, he feels amazed because Leon is willing to accompany and guide his little sister to do physical exercises to the peak. He secretly kept a safe distance to follow them, afraid Leon would notice his presence. In luck, Leon seems occupied talking to his long-lost little sister.

Xavier could not bear to see his sister, who was exhausted several times. He wanted to help her carry the backpack on her back. Still, overhearing their conversation that her sister was doing this physical exercise to enter Royal Intelligence, he refrained from interrupting their training session.

After almost two hours, his sister finally completed her exercise. Fortunately, Leon’s mind was only on his sister, so he could also arrive at the top without Leon noticing him.

Now, Leon and Allynna’s eyes were staring at him, but he couldn’t say anything more. He just smiled at them, enjoying the moment of his official reunion with his missing little sister.
