Another week had slipped by since Sam had accepted the quest prested by the Codex.
One fine morning, an unexpected guest arrived at Sam's house. It turned out to be the sa individual who had be tasked by Hela and Lorraine's mother, the matriarch of the Hailstorm clan, to keep an eye on them.
Sam regarded the person bowing before him with a hint of confusion. "Who the hell are you?" he inquired, his curiosity piqued.
The newcor, Takashi, maintained his respectful posture as he introduced himself, "Young master, my na is Takashi. I am one of the subordinates of the Matriarch of the Hailstorm clan. I have be ordered to escort the young master and young miss, along with our two princesses, back to the Hailstorm clan."
Sam couldn't help but think, 'Did he just address as 'young master'?' He exchanged glances with his mother, Hela, and his aunt, Lorraine, both of whom wore expressions of surprise.
Hela, ever the inquisitive one, questioned Takashi further. "How did you ev find us? Did my mother ask you to monitor us?"
Takashi explained, "Wh Young Miss Sophia left the Hailstorm clan, the Matriarch ordered to follow her. This evtually led to discover this location and the existce of our young master."
Lorraine chid in with her own question. "Does my mother know about him?" She gestured toward Sam.
Takashi t Lorraine's gaze and nodded. "Yes, the Matriarch is aware."
Lorraine couldn't help but roll her eyes in exasperation at the situation.
Takashi, who had be quietly assessing Sam from head to toe, couldn't help but be tak aback by the young master's appearance and aura. "This is our First Princess's son, huh? He's incredibly good-looking," he thought to himself. "He might just be the most handso person I've ever se in my life. And that aura of his... it's so oppressive.
I've never felt this kind of reaction from anyone, not ev the Patriarch."
Sam, noticing Takashi's intse gaze, raised an eyebrow. "What's on your mind?"
Takashi finally broke his silce. "Um, young master... may I know your na?"
Sam replied with a simple, "Sam Flareheart."
Takashi's eyes fell upon the presce of another red-haired girl among them. He inquired, "Princess Hela, may I ask who this young woman is?"
Before Hela could provide an answer, Sam decided to speak up. "This is Alia Scarlett, my future wife," he declared confidtly.
In response to Sam's proclamation, Hela and Lorraine exchanged knowing glances and rolled their eyes, while Sophia fought hard not to strangle Alia right th and there. As for Alia herself, she blushed deeply, a clear indication that she was developing feelings for Sam as well.
"Scarlett?" Takashi appeared bewildered by Sam's words. He couldn't help but recall vague news about the heiress of the Scarlett Vampire Clan who had run away two years ago.
Takashi couldn't hide his surprise as he realized, "She was with them this whole ti?"
After so deliberation, Hela and Lorraine made a decision about their next course of action.
"Alright, we'll go to the Hailstorm Clan th," Lorraine conceded, accepting that their mother now knew about them. "It seems we have no other choice."
Takashi nodded in agreemt, ready to make arrangemts for their journey. "I will summon our guards from the Hailstorm Clan as soon as possible to escort us," he assured them.
However, Hela had a differt idea. "No need for that," she said firmly. "I don't want news about the existce of my son to spread throughout the Azure Dragon Contint."
In the world of cultivation, only a 40% of the tire realm had be explored.
Among these explored lands, approximately 0% was divided into five contints: the Azure Dragon Contint, the Vermilion Phoix Contint, the White Tiger Contint, the Black Tortoise Contint, and the Yin-Yang Contint.
The Azure Dragon Contint was ho to various creatures, including dragons, vampires, Lamia, Ghouls, werewolves, and more.
It was also the location of both the Hailstorm Clan and the Flareheart Clan.
"As you wish, First Princess," Takashi responded respectfully.
Hela couldn't help but steal a glance at Alia, who was looking at Sam with love-filled eyes. She th turned her gaze to Sam, who was returning Alia's affectionate look with a possessive one of his own. Hela sighed softly, recognizing the undiable connection betwe the two.
Hela had another request to make of Takashi. "Also, one more thing. Don't tell anyone about seeing Alia with us, not ev my mother. Do you understand?"
Alia and Sam both turned their atttion to Hela as she mtioned Alia's na.
"But," Takashi began to protest.
Hela cut him off with determination. "No 'buts.' Alia is soone important to my son, and I will bring her with us to the Hailstorm Clan. This matter must not be leaked to anyone. If you're concerned about my mother finding out, I assure you I will handle her. Just don't mtion seeing Alia to anyone. Do you understand?"
Takashi sighed and reluctantly nodded. "I understand, as you say."
"Good," Hela nodded in satisfaction.
Sam, concerned about the situation, voiced his worries. "Mom, are you sure about this? What if Alia's father cos looking for her?" He held Alia's hand protectively, treating her like a precious treasure.
Looking at this sight, his Aunt Lorraine and his big sister, Sophia grited their teeth. They also wanted to treated like that by Sam.
Alia, however, had strong feelings on the matter. "I don't want to marry that Tomasz Wichura. I would rather die than marry soone as despicable as him," she declared with evidt disgust.
Sam tighted his grip on her hand and declared firmly, "I won't let anyone steal her away from . The one who is going to marry Alia is , and no one else." His possessive tone left no room for doubt about his determination.
