Chapter 11: 11 : Madam Clark
On an extsive island, an army of Grand Master mages guarded a black mansion. The mansion is built at the edge of a cliff.
Several evolved magical beasts were guarding this mansion from the skies. The mansion is fortified from all sides with magic cannons, mortars, mana blasters, eruption gines, and comet cauldrons.
In the extsive sea, the small mansion gleamed like a dark moon in the sky. The grandmasters were changing their positions from one place to another, maintaining a circular barrier a the mansion.
At the cter of the mansion, a royal hall is constructed with advanced mana stones. A majestic throne was placed on the high d of the hall. Before the throne, rows of rock chairs were sculptured on each side.
At prest, the tire hall is in deep silce as a lady in a gold cape adorns the throne in exalted posture. Several people of differt ages and gders sat on both sides of the hall, facing towards the throne.
Sev females in dark cloaks with black fingers sat close to the lady on the throne. These are the sev witch sisters who swore to protect the throne lady.
Just beside the throne, a strong man with bulging muscles, holding a large gold mace, stood in protection of the lady on the throne. With a cold face, that muscle guy stood like a pillar of support for the lady, whom he treats as her elder sister.
"Your Highness…" A middle-aged man wearing a red clock stood from his seat. "The Valkyrie organization continued to interfere in our missions. They are seriously targeting our bounties to increase their reputation." The middle-aged man said it loudly without lifting his head.
The lady, who was busy checking the revue reports on the throne, turned her gaze towards the man who spoke. "Mr. Sand, do you think we have time to care about these small flies? Having some resistance is also good for the organization\'s growth. Ask our assassins to act fast next time."
The throne lady replied while staring at the losses countered through the Gold Skull Organization, which is the free bounty organization established for assassins a the world.
After giving the final speech, the lady gestured for everyone to leave. In the large hall, she sat with her personal guardians.
"Lady Clark, how much time are we going to wait for revge? We have ough wealth equal to a hidd family. We must strike the Aries family soon." The first witch among the sev witches spoke in an ardt tone.
"Number , do you really think we have a chance to win against the Aries family? In front of power, no wealth stands. We still need more powerful mages and witches.
Most importantly, we need one man who can master the celestial bow. Until th, we will gather our strgth." Lady Clark, the head of the Clark family and the owner of several businesses and secret organizations throughout the blue planet, replied with a serious face.
"But lady…" The second witch tried to interve, as they all know mastering the celestial bow is an impossible feat.
"Please leave me alone. I need some time to think." Lady Clark declared as she closed her eyes.
"Yes, your highness," the sev witches said, flying from the hall.
Just as everyone left, the muscle man who stood beside her bt down and passed a flashing pearl orb to Lady Clark.
"My lady, your sister st a message." Anjan, the muscle man, spoke in a humble tone.
As Lady Clark took the pearl orb, which is custom-made with several features, a young man\'s video played on the glass orb. He is other than Kt Clark. The video was recorded wh Kt spoke with her aunt for the first time.
"He looks exactly like his father." The lady muttered in a weak tone. Anjan saw a rare emotion on her face, which he had never se in years.
After watching the video several times, she noticed the message attached to the video.
"How could 5,000 gold suffice for him? She didn\'t ev sd any weapons for his protection." The lady uttered it after reading the message.
"My lady, giving him more wealth would only bring danger to him." Anjan spoke with a smile as he finally saw motherly love from the woman he respected and followed for years.
"Anjan, he is the son of Aries family head... he should get his privileges. Ask my sister to sd some weapons and skill books for his protection and more coins. My son suffered all these years with that damn curse. At least from now on, I should show my sincerity to him."
Lady Clark replied as he stood up to leave the throne room.
Late in the morning, the sun is already shining high in the sky. Kt oped his eyes from his deep slumber. As there was no pressure to go to school, he rested peacefully.
Without ev getting up from bed, he picked up his phone to check out the school forum. Just as he swiped on the Sky orb, Kt saw a new message glowing in the Spell-Chat interface.
The profile seemed familiar to him. While wondering about the person who st this message, Kt tapped on the message.
Instantly, a bold image of a young teage girl showed up on the orb. The girl in the image is bt down in front of the mirror with a kinky face. Her snow-, bulging mountains were clearly visible in the image.
"How big…" Kt muttered while taking a closer look at Luna\'s image on the sky orb. "Why did Luna sd me this type of picture? She used to scold me for staring at her." Kt thought while checking her images from head to toe.
After some time, he oped the attached voice note tagged with the image. Luna\'s sweet voice sounded loudly inside the room.
"What? Tycoon…? How did she get my sky orb contact information?" Kt muttered with a confused face. After much thought, he finally realized that Luna didn\'t know his original idtity.
Without any delay, he kept his Spell-Chat profile name as Tycoon and st a message to Luna. "Who is this? Do we know each other? Who gave you my contact information?" Kt asked a series of questions to clear his doubts and moved onto the school forum.
*** Flash… Flash… Flash news… "Secondary Maze Competition: Prize money worth 50 gold coins."
"The Sky Family\'s yearly maze competition is approaching. Everyone, please register your name to participate in the competition. Winners will have a chance to learn an \'A\' grade skill book."
The school forum displayed a flashing banner at the top. Kt immediately clicked the image to read it in detail.
