One more week went by in a flash.

Lucas and Martha frequented where Grey was being kept while his guardian was always there.

p-A- n-d-A-n-0-v-e-1、(c)om Grey’s condition was relatively better now compared to before and there even seemed to be an improvement in his cultivation.

Void had been hiding in Grey’s storage ring all this while. He naturally would not let them take Grey away without him.

Some time went by and Grey finally made some movements. His eyes twitched repeatedly before snapping open.

He stared at the same position for some time. After about a minute or so, he turned his head to properly see the place he was located. Seeing the unfamiliar scenery, he tried to get up hastily, but he was shocked when he noticed he couldn’t freely move his body.

‘Void…’

He called out to Void. This was the only one he could count on at times like these.

‘You’re awake!’

Void’s voice sounded in his ears after some time.

‘Yeah, and I don’t feel so good.’

Grey replied as he finally managed to get to a seating position.

‘You won’t believe what happened…’

Void was still in the middle of speaking when a figure stepped into the cave where Grey was being kept. It was a middle-aged man with a handsome face that had an uncanny resemblance to Grey. The man stood just over two meters tall and had a well-built body.

“Oh, you’re awake.” The man said.

Grey looked at the man in front of him who was very familiar, yet quite distant to him. It took him some time, neglecting Void’s voice in his head, he murmured in a somewhat confused voice, “Dad?”

“Grey.” Lucas nodded with a smile before sending out his spiritual senses to check on Grey’s condition.

However, he didn’t try to move closer to Grey since he felt guilty for leaving him alone with his wife for so long.

Grey was a bit apprehensive when the spiritual sense was about to touch him, but after thinking about it, he let it be.

“You’re alive?” Grey blurted out unconsciously.

Although he hoped for this, he was also a bit shocked by their reunion. To be honest, he didn’t think that when he would eventually meet his father, it would be after waking up from a coma. According to his plan, he would search for his parents and find them somewhere.

“Your mother didn’t tell you I was fine?” Lucas asked, stunned by Grey’s question.

“Well…” Grey paused.

He didn’t really know how to communicate with his father who he hadn’t seen for over ten years. If he recalled correctly, his father left when he was around eight or so, now he was almost twenty-two. If not for the resemblance he had with his father, he wouldn’t have even recalled the figure standing in front of him.please visit panda(-)N0ve1.co)m

“I know you have a lot of questions, you’ll get your answer.” Lucas said when he noticed Grey wasn’t saying anything.

“You left me and mom alone, for years.” Grey finally spoke after some time.

“I’m sorry for that, but I was powerless.” Lucas apologized, he knew multiple things were running through Grey’s head at the moment, so he wasn’t in a hurry to speak much. He wanted to hear everything Grey had to say first.

“Why?” Grey asked, this was the only question that had been going through his head for so long.

Lucas looked Grey in the eyes, “You see, it all started before your birth…”

Lucas went on to explain the reason for his departure and why he couldn’t go back to his wife and son even after so long.

He was avoiding one of the major issues that came with coming from a top Family, and that was fighting for the position of the Family Head. Given his talent, he would be the one to get it undoubtedly, but he didn’t want it. His parents as well as the Elders though, thought otherwise.

Even when one of his brothers wanted the position, they refused him, saying it was only right for Lucas to take up the position.

This caused hatred to grow in the mind of his brother and he decided to leave with his wife and go into hiding. The truth was, he wanted peace. All his life, he had been fighting. Even when he didn’t want to fight, he had been forced to fight due to some circumstances.

After getting married, he didn’t want that life for his family. He wanted a peaceful and happy life, unfortunately, that was not the case. Grey’s birth changed everything.

While Lucas explained everything, Grey listened attentively, making sure he digested all the things his father was saying.

Lucas just finished explaining when Martha walked into the cave.

“Mom…” Grey called out, a little more affectionately compared to when he spoke with his father.

The truth was, after staying with his mother for a longer time, especially during the period after his first test, he was closer to her than his father.

Martha looked at Grey with teary eyes as she walked closer to him and gave him a tight hug, gently caressing his hair.

Grey was already slightly taller than her at the moment, but it didn’t stop her from giving him the same treatment as she usually did when he was younger.

“How are you feeling now?” Martha disregarded Lucas’ presence as she studied her son.

It had been so long since she saw him and had been worried about his well-being.

“Better, I guess.” Grey replied after his mother finally let go of him.

“Where am I?” He asked soon after.

“Close to the Dawson Family.” Martha replied before casting a glance at Lucas, “Someone is afraid of taking you to the Family Manor.”

Grey chuckled slightly when he saw his father’s helpless expression. Surprisingly, they hadn’t changed much. Other than his father being a little distant, he was still as close to his mother as always.

“Martha, you know the situation there more than I do. Taking him there will not do him any good.” Lucas explained wearily.
