Emerald and Xavier were seated facing an enraged Gregor who sat in a wooden chair. a desk was in the midst of these three and on this desk were scrolls relating to politics and a gourd of wine.
Emerald had a gloomy face as she listened to Gregor
"After hearing my reasons I'll only leave you with two options, let me send him away or you'll go with him."
Gregor has decided to get rid of Liam before the beginning of the [Family evolution meet] that happens every ten years; it's a day when men from noble families come together to organize contests to evaluate and give new grades to already established noble families.
The king is also the overseer of this, even the emperor of great sun empire sends message with his signature to give his consent to this meet.
To noble families, this is like final exams that will determine if they are promoted or if they are going to remain on the same point while to Ordinary families it's a dream that's almost impossible.
Emerald tried pleading with him, but he was dead set on it.
"But Dad, little brother Liam is not cursed at all, infact he's even a better genius than myself, I'm sure he'll make dad proud in the near future, please dad don't throw brother away." Said Xavier.
"You, do you Know how cursed your brother is..... he won't be able to achieve anything in the future, it won't even be a shock if he doesn't develop a dantian" replied Gregor with a scornful face.
"But Dad, he's not up to the minimum age yet how are so certain?"
"So what, you want me to wait till then and get embarrassed, I'm sure your mom haven't told you how important reputation is to a growing noble family."
Xavier did not back down, as long as it was his little brother he won't mind fighting his dad with words.
He has been fed up with his dad nonsense sense of humor and his negativities whenever Liam is concerned.
As a big brother he always wanted his little brother to be there whenever he achieves anything, for example he wants his little brother to be the first person to celebrate with him when he break through any levels in his cultivation, he want his little brother to be there when he cuts his birthday cake and he'll be there for his little brother as well.
It was already too bad that Liam hasn't been given the privilege to leave the house like a normal person should.
It was already too bad that Gregor has, for all these years, hidden Liam from the public as though he was a plaque to his life.
Xavier was sharper with words than Gregor and the other party could only agree with him later on but he gave a very difficult condition that was very impossible and has never happened for once in the history of the great sun empire.
"I'll agree to your words to stop hiding your brother from the public and every other thing you have said only if you agree to my conditions. you willing to listen?"
"Yeah."
"Hmph, I'll give you guys three years, after this three years, you must reach the peak of human realm martial arts and essence cultivation and Liam must by then become a level five martial artist or a level five essence cultivator, if you can't complete these conditions by then.."
"Dad this is too harsh, little brother hasn't even birth his dantian yet and you are already giving such condition."
"If you don't agree to it you're only fooling your self, I'm giving you guys three years to enjoy life to the fullest"
"Fine. Agreed, no matter what, we'll surely beat the odd, mom let's leave." Xavier was annoyed at the same time he was sad about the whole phenomenon.
.....
Liam was still very young, only three years old, it's the age when he has to start meeting with friends and learning new things but he haven't gotten a chance to do so because of Gregor's bias nature.
Happiness was supposed to be the way he grew up, loved by his father but that was impossible.
Only his mom and brother treated him like a family and he was very grateful for that, but his dad was just a disgusting pain in the ass that he has to get rid off as soon as he has the chance to do so.
"Don't worry mom and big brother, I'll start training immediately, thankfully I'm now allowed to go out of the house like a normal child should."
Liam said with a determined tone.
Emerald was touched, then she pulled him into a embrace and cried her heart out. freewebno(v)el.com
Although it was impossible to achieve what Gregor as said, she didn't want to make her son less motivated so of course she gave him the courage and love she needed, she also prayed for him in her heart wishing that God of success will make everything possible.
Before one knew it, six months have passed the trio were mostly filled with joy and happiness.
