"Wait for a second. I've been aning to ask it to you. But, son, who is the little guy on your shoulders?" The father asked his son as he looked at the little white puppy on his son's shoulders. Klein, Delvin, and their mother looked at the little guy with stars in their eyes.
"Why didn't you introduce that little guy to us? Where did you pick him? He's quite cute. Wait, is it a he or is it a she?
"The mother stood up from her seat and walked beside Caleb and stared at the little guy with a smile on her face. She gave it a doting look and caressed the soft fur that was pleasant to her skin. Uh... Um...
Caleb scratched his cheeks and shrugged. "Well, I'm about to introduce him to you guys. That's why I'm here in the first place. And he's also the reason why I disappeared. Because I've... I've... I've tad a beast. And he's from the Yellow Zone. It seems not like it, but this little guy is my beast companion. And he's already a Sprout-level."
"And to make it clear, this little guy is a he. I've nad him Voli. Yes, you can call him by the na Voli. And, no... He's not a puppy. He's a bear. A thunderstorm bear. Caleb brought Voli to the top of the table and instructed, "Go, Voli. They are my family. Right here, the woman in front of you is my beautiful mother. And that is my father." Caleb pointed at his father who nodded at Volley with an approving expression.
'Hmm, where did my... So my son disappeared because he tad this little guy? And this little guy is actually a Sprout-level demon beast?"
"But how? Really? Wait, brother, so you're saying this is Sprout? How is that even possible? Aren't you also Awakening Realm? So... Huh? I can't understand it. Did you fight this little guy and beat him to the ground until he beca obedient? Or did you conned him to follow you? At least, I don't believe that you can ta an Awakening Realm or a Sprout Level Beast that is of equal strength to you. For the record, Sprout Level Beasts are stronger than their human counterparts. Right?" Klein asked suspiciously as he looked at Voli at the table and decided to ask so questions again to solve so of his doubts. "And this little guy doesn't look that fearso. He's small. He looks more like a puppy than a ferocious monster that you're describing to him. How could this little guy even break a wooden stick with his figure? You must be jesting..."
"Hahaha, you don't know. Well, don't judge him by his appearance. That's not his original look. If you saw his original look, I doubt that you would even ask that question." Caleb could not help but laugh. He understands where they are coming though...
Delvin went near Voli. On the other hand, Voli looked at Delvin, at Klein, and at his master's father, and mother with joy on his face. 'So, these are my master's family, as expected of my master's family. They also look powerful and aweso. Then there's also his grandfather. I can't feel his strength at all. Maybe his realm is even higher than ?' But surely, he should not be as powerful as my master, right?
As usual, Voli thinks that Caleb is the strongest, the most powerful, and the most aweso person in the world. Even if not, his master would easily surpass anyone in no ti.
Voli deliberately showed his big eyes to his master's family and pretended to be cute.
"Oh, this little guy is quite cute. Why are you saying that he's a dangerous monster?"
Their mother complained.
Caleb shook his head helplessly. "Well, guys, you won't understand until you see it."
On the side, the old man watched his family with a smile on his face. He was quite happy that they had such a good relationship and a bit regretful that he had not been part of it for a hundred years because he had so important matters overseas.
Without him, how could the family enjoy the bliss and the wealth that they have now? At least he had so contribution to them in so way and he just loves seeing the family and his son live such a peaceful life. However, the old man's gaze beca solemn as his eyes landed on his grandson and Volley, these two little guys. They're actually hiding their strength. 'Why does my grandson conceal his strength from his father and the others? At such an age, he's already just the realm below ... Not to ntion, that little bear on the table had the sa power level... What kind of peerless evildoer is my grandson!?'
Caleb looked at his grandfather as he felt his gaze with his sensitive perception...
After a hundred years overseas, then why would his grandfather go ho now? What does he intend to do in this small country? Is it because he's worried about his son, or because he just wants to say hello to them? At least Caleb doesn't think that such a strong person who was the leader of a guild would co ho without sothing important or sothing big happening. The question is, what big matter happens? Is it Alfred's death, or an entirely different reason than that? Why would a strong powerhouse care about a re butler's life? That doesn't make sense at all. So Caleb ruled out this possibility.
'Huh? He actually perceived my gaze? This grandson of mine is really built differently from others. He's a bit capable.'
The more he looks at his grandson, the more and more he feels satisfied. His son who doesn't have talent in fighting and the path of genetic warrior actually managed to give birth to such genius. The De Vera family is lucky to have such a genius in their family.
After living for how long, he knew that a person can rise to the sky and push others with him on top. One person is enough to change the destiny of a family to rise to a higher position in the world and hold the sky when it is falling. And now, in his family that he hasn't given much importance, there seems to be a son of heaven that was born, and it was his grandson.
Of course, he did not ignore them because he wanted to. He just can't visit them from being just because he wants to. The matters in his hands concern the fate of the entire world.
Still, in those hundred years that he spent overseas, he still made ti to contact his son to inquire about their challenges or make sure that the family didn't get in trouble with big forces. That's the only thing he can do to shield them from being stared at by other powerful forces. So it can be said that he protected his family behind the scenes, and he also gave them the resources they needed for them to rise to what they currently are.
