Chapter 996: Chapter 983 He’s My Brother
“What’s all this commotion? Disperse at once!” The Paris butler felt slightly embarrassed upon seeing the group of children who had run over to warn Muria.
In the eyes of the Douglas clan higher-ups, Muria’s potential was comparable to that of an official mber with an 80% compatibility with Star talent, and her status was the sa as that of her sister.
Still, this result was due to the inability to accurately asure Muria’s Martial Arts talent, leading to an intentionally conservative estimate. Even so, in the eyes of the clan higher-ups, Muria was destined to be one of the core mbers of the clan in the future, with a high likelihood of surpassing Daisy.
However, such assessnt results were not disclosed to the middle and lower echelons of the clan. Therefore, to the average Douglas clan mbers, Muria was just a Star Armor Master who was not serious about her duties.
This also led to Muria temporarily being unable to receive the respect that matched her potential within the clan, as her Star talent was only 64.68%. As for Martial Arts? Wasn’t that sothing that had been outdated by the tis long ago?
“Paris butler!” Seeing the elder butler speak up, the children who had created a scene before Muria obediently retreated to the side, their faces showing a look of awe.
“Young Master Jelos, let
take you to see your residence in the manor first!”
“Alright!” Muria nodded, then took the initiative to hold the elder butler’s hand, asking him to lead the way.
“Your pets?”
“Let them stay here by themselves, don’t worry, there won’t be any problems, they are very well-behaved.”
“Very well!” The elder butler glanced at the children, sighed helplessly, and then led Muria toward one of the central buildings in the manor.
“Young Master Jelos, they are all still sowhat immature children, please forgive any offense they might have caused. As a clan mber who is older than them, you should be more tolerant.”
“Clan mber? Their attitude clearly treats
like a country bumpkin who ca here to cling to power and curry favor. I haven’t seen them treat
like a clan mber,”
Muria smiled, neither agreeing nor disagreeing with the elder butler, “And besides, Paris butler, not only are they children, I’m also a child, I’m not yet of age.”
“They indeed have shown you so disrespect, and mild punishnt will suffice. Just make sure not to make too much of a fuss,” said the Paris butler, his mouth twitching at Muria’s words.
“Don’t worry about that, those little creatures I’ve raised all know their limits, and they won’t go too far.”
…
“That guy has only been in contact with the Paris butler for such a short ti and he’s already sucking up to him,” said Anna, a girl who for so reason had dyed her hair green, feeling quite indignant as she watched Muria walk away with the Paris butler.
“But you managed to get away today through the Paris butler, I don’t believe you can have the Paris butler stick by your side forever, we’ll see about that.”
Just as the green-haired girl prepared to leave after her threatening words, she suddenly felt a warm breath of air surge from behind her, as if a massive Giant Beast was panting behind her.
“I rember the reports saying that Jelos has raised a large number of Native species,” the girl realized this and stiffly turned around. When she did, she found a black Giant Beast had appeared behind her at so unknown ti, with strands of black hair fluttering in the wind revealing glimpses of fine, black scales beneath.
Ah———
Looking at the Giant Beast that seed capable of devouring her whole with a single gulp, the girl couldn’t help but scream, then due to fright and fear, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted on the spot.
Seeing that he had only quietly walked over and exhaled a breath, which was enough to knock out a young girl, Shifanlin’s raised Claws stiffened mid-air, and a look of astonishnt appeared in his eyes: he hadn’t even moved his Claws yet, so why did the person collapse?
“Anna!” Anna fainting from the sight of the sudden appearance of the Black Dog shocked her peers, so of whom timidly retreated while the others angrily summoned their Star Armor.
As formal mbers trained by the Douglas family, these youngsters, despite their age, had a high level of combat training. So after arming themselves with Star Armor, they spread out cautiously, forming a half-circle around Shifanlin.
“Is that a Black-scaled dog?” A boy suited in Star Armor looked at Shifanlin’s massive body with so shocked uncertainty. While it looked the sa in form, the size was not like what he had seen in textbooks.
“Who cares what it is, how dare it scare us, just kill it,” said one.
“That won’t do, no matter what, this is still Jenos’s dog. If we kill it, that ans we’re completely at odds with him,” another countered.
“What are you afraid of, his compatibility is just said to be 64%,” another chid in.
“But he’s also Miss Daisy’s brother!”
“Okay, just beat the dog to a pulp then,” they decided.
Shifanlin watched this group of children, who were arguing over how badly to beat him, with a hint of bemusent in his eyes, which was also noticed by the children.
“Why is this dog looking at us with such an expression?”
“Wait a second, did you guys forget? Jenos raised a pack of native species, and this dog is just one of them.”
A child cried out in shock as he looked at the convoy that brought Muria over. Besides the business luxury car leading the way, the rest were all large cargo trucks.
He had originally thought that these trucks were rely transporting Jelos’s personal belongings—it was quite normal for children from great families to move with a few trucks of stuff. Although there were a bit more trucks than usual, it wasn’t anything out of the ordinary.
But the sight of this massive black-scaled dog was deeply alarming. This black-scaled dog had undoubtedly co with the convoy, so where were the other native species Jelos was raising?
“Hey, are we being surrounded?” a little boy said with a trembling voice, noticing changes on the ground around them, with so areas cracking out of nowhere.
“Damn, it’s optical camouflage!” a little girl had a flash of spirit light as she shouted both in anger and fear.
And as she cried out, one after another, a monstrous giant beast appeared around them, looking down with a mocking gaze.
It was then that this group of brats realized that it wasn’t they who had surrounded the black-scaled dog; instead, they were the ones surrounded by a pack of ferocious beasts, including the black-scaled dog.
Ah—
Consequently, several screams filled with terror and despair rose into the sky above the manors. After all, these little fellows were still just children. Despite their broad horizons, exceptional talents, and top-tier star armor, they, too, were frightened by death.
…
“Aren’t you going to do sothing about it?” An elderly man chuckled as he watched the scene from a small house in the distance.
“Do sothing about what?” The questioned elderly man snorted coldly, his face displaying evident dissatisfaction, “Have they been attacked?”
“It looks like the clan’s training policy needs a change. The battle hasn’t even started, and a few have already run away, so have gone soft, and none dared to charge into the fight.”
“They are still children, after all. Don’t be angry. They have yet to experience a real battle; it’s natural for them to act this way. They’re young and still have a chance to be shaped.”
“The younger they are, the more they need to be taught. If not taught now, when they grow up and beco set in their ways, it’ll be too late.”
“Hm, indeed it’s sowhat embarrassing. It’ll be a joke if it gets out—scared like this without even a fight.”
“However, that youngster Jelos is interesting. Being able to ta such a number of native species and have them so obedient shows that his strength is enough to completely suppress them. We can raise his standing within the clan.”
“Let’s wait and see for a while. Now that Jelos is settling in, it’s inevitable that he’ll clash with so other kids from the house. We’ll observe his performance when that happens.”
“Mhm!”
…
In the bright white corridor, a young girl with dark waist-length hair greeted each dical staff who passed by with a smile, making everyone she t feel ward as if by spring sunshine.
Shortly after, the girl pushed open the door of a hospital room and saw inside a green-haired girl lying on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling. The newcor’s presence also startled the green-haired girl.
“Miss Desley, what brings you here?” Anna twisted her head upon seeing the girl walking into the room and her face imdiately showed a look of surprise and boundless emotion.
“I heard you were hospitalized, so I ca to see you. It looks like you haven’t been hurt,” Desley observed the girl on the hospital bed with an indifferent expression on her face.
“Thank you for your concern, Miss. I’m fine,” Anna’s face flushed with excitent and gratitude.
“If you’re fine, then why are you still lounging around here? Is the clan’s dical resources for you to waste like this?”
“I’ll get up right away,” Anna hurriedly rose from the bed, a nervous look on her face.
“I’ve already heard about what happened,” Desley said, looking at the girl standing uneasily before her. Her expression gradually shifted from calm to sharp,
“Who gave you the order? Who told you to warn my brother? I don’t recall ever giving such an order.”
“Miss Desley, this was my own decision. But wasn’t Jelos coming all the way to the capital just to bask in your glory and borrow your influence?”
“That’s my business, not yours to ddle in. Besides, I’ve never even t him, but he is my brother, on what grounds do you call him by na?”
The girl with dark hair had a chilling gaze, “If a similar situation arises again, you can willingly leave my side. I do not appreciate others making decisions for . Do you understand?”
“Understood.” Beads of cold sweat dropped from the forehead of the green-haired girl.
