BXBX NOVEL Chapter 382 382
The officials of the Federations felt as if they were in utopia…
The reason? n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
It\'s because Leon\'s presence was a pain in their ass as every time he popped out, someone got fucked up.
Now to add further salt to the injured, there was the son of Woods, a menace of another level that cut with the slightest disagreement.
No wonder, people call him Wood\'s Cutter.
Thankfully, the eldest Wood had been quiet for decades, otherwise his tale was also famous as he chased the enemies holding a metallic and flipper that was made of one of the strongest materials by someone.
To say things like grandfather, son, and like grandson.
And with subsequent generations, the level of menacity just increased.
In Woods Estate on Earth...
A man stood at the edge of the garden, coaching down holding a water pot while singing softly with a gleeful expression.
The man may look young but he was almost 100 years old and had just gained his youthful vigor back just a few months back.
He was none other than Arthur Wood, whom people were already calling the Grandfather of menacing monsters Leon.
People who knew him during his young days knew very well that this guy had so much fiery trouble which was inherited by his son Stephen and the mantle had been passed to his grandson, evolved, and upgraded.
In the garden Arthur and Lia enjoyed a rare moment of peace and warmth in their old age.
The garden around them was bathed in the soft glow of twilight, flowers blooming in vibrant colors. Arthur, despite his advanced years, looked youthful and rejuvenated as he gently watered the plants, a reminder of the vitality that had recently been bestowed upon him.
Even though Arthur appeared young, he was keenly aware of the weight of his years. He understood that this newfound vitality was a gift and made a conscious effort to stay grounded and mindful through his cultivation practices. He was determined not to let the appearance of youth cloud his wisdom and experience.
As he finished tending to the garden, Arthur turned to return to their home, his steps light and peaceful.
But when he saw Lia, his heart sank. She stood by the window, her back turned to him, and the solemnity in her posture was palpable.
She seemed to be staring up into the sky probing something.
This was the first time in many years that Arthur had seen her with such a grave and pensive expression.
Lia\'s face was serene like a calm lake yet shadowy and inner turmoil.
Her usually composed demeanor was replaced by an evident emotional struggle that was evident as she clutched the hem of her skirt tightly as if seeking comfort from the fabric. The contrast between her normally calm and confident demeanor and her current state was striking.
Arthur approached her cautiously, his brow furrowed with concern. "Lia?" he asked softly, his voice gentle. "What\'s troubling you?"
Lia turned slowly to face him, her eyes reflecting a storm of emotions. She struggled to find words, her usually clear and decisive tone faltering. "Arthur... It\'s about Leon," she began, her voice barely above a whisper.
Her voice sounded calm but Arthur who had been with her for a long time knew something was off the moment he heard the name, he asked again"What did you say?"
"I\'m worried about him."
A brief silence lingered followed by Arthur crackling into deep laughter.
"HAHAHAHAAHAH!"
"Lia, are you trying to act funny now? Danger and that brat...Did you forget who he is...Even danger in itself is afraid of..."
BOOOOOOOM!
A slipper slammed into Arthur\'s face but he didn\'t dodge because he was quite used to it. When his lovely wife would be angry, she would throw her shoes or slippers at him in a fit of anger.
But this time there was a problem, because the moment it hit him.
At first, his face was contorted and distorted. A cracking sound echoed in the next instant.
BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!
Like a missile, his body shot back and slammed on the wall. It didn\'t stop as he shot beyond and got plastered for a moment. After a moment of dizziness, he shook the slipper and saw Lia blinking innocently and his expression turned grave.
"You...You forget to control your strength!"Arthur muttered with shock. He was too shocked that the watering pot in his hands fell down
This matter was no joke cause if she flicked using 0.001% of her power, then he would burst and die.
"Leon...What happened to him..."
Arthur\'s heart was set ablaze and he asked loudly.
Hearing this, Lia looked up and said"Lightening Tribulation!"
Arthur\'s heart squeezed and taking a deep breath, he walked towards Lia, grabbed her hand, and assured her, "He will be alright..."
But he got no response from Lia. He didn\'t know why Lia was acting like this. Though he hadn\'t ever seen her like this, Arthur knew every moment of her she had been calculating to take the best possible steps.
Even the step and breath she inhaled seemed to be calculated as if not to disrupt balance so in such scenarios losing control of her power was impossible her worry overwhelmed her.
Arthur\'s heart ached at her words. He placed a comforting hand on her shoulder, understanding the weight of her concern.
"We\'ve done everything we can to guide him," he said. "He\'s stronger than we might realize. But I know how much you care for him. We must trust in the path we\'ve set for him and in his strength."
Lia nodded, though her expression remained troubled. "I hope you\'re right," she said quietly. "The path of fate is so uncertain, and sometimes I fear for what lies ahead."
"This tribulation will be just the beginning. He won\'t be failing here but after the grand event of Dimension Ascension is unlocked, the real play will begin while he has to face the world without any trump cards."
"Every power except his own would be meaningless there."
Arthur took her hand in his, offering a reassuring squeeze. "Whatever happens, we face it together," he said. "And we\'ll always be here for him, no matter what."
At that moment, Lia raised her head and stared at Arthur, "Do you know where he is going through the tribulations?"
"Where?"Arthur asked with confusion.
"Near to the place we met."
Arthur\'s eyes dilated and he screamed abruptly.
