Chereads / Way Of The Darkness / Chapter 135 - Explain

Chapter 135 - Explain

" Hello. Is this working correctly? Yes, Master, it's working fine. It's a recording, so hurry." Lu Yao heard two voices from the recorder, one of them was Delvin's, which she was quickly able to recognize, while the other was unfamiliar to her, but it somehow filled her with warmth.

Lu Yao wasn't able to pinpoint what and where this feeling originated from, but she was sure it resembled how she felt when she was with her mother.

"For some reason, I cannot explain right now, you cannot see my body, but I wish you to know that I am your father. My name is Lu Aven, I don't know if you know about me, but I have been kidnapped and imprisoned for a long time before you were born. I'm sorry for leaving you and your mother. I-I don't have anything to compensate you with, and your mother is d… Your mother is now dead, and I wasn't there for her. I have nothing to justify myself, and I don't hope for you to forgive me as I never will. However, I wish to protect you even if you don���t wish to see me or talk to me…. I wish to know at least that you are safe." Lu Yao heard the man from the other side of the recording, his voice was frail and cracking, and every word he said made her heart pang with pain and longing.

Longing for her mother. Longing for her father that she never met and longing for the person who was able to make her trust him and borrowed himself so deep inside her that she didn't want to separate from. Lu Yao was longing to see Xue Mo.

"Uncle Delvin, here is a person that you can trust. He was the butler of our family for as long as I remember. He is very close to your grandparents and is like an uncle to me. If you wish to know anything, you can ask him. You won't find anyone stronger than him under a Soul Grade world. Although this might be a presumptuous request, I-I would like to meet you….." Lu Yao's father, Lu Aven, continued as he vouched for Delvin, who was now confirmed as a butler.

Although Lu Yao was a skeptical person and wouldn't believe just anything, even more so a recording device that only let her hear a voice that claimed to be her father, but Lu Yao somehow was able to tell that it was her father and some fake.

Lu Yao's bloodline resonated and churned when the voice was first heard, making Lu Yao sure that it was her father. Although Lu Yao wanted to meet him, she also knew that there must be a reason that he didn't show himself, since Delvin said this is a communication and a recording device, Lu Yao knew that he could have just shown himself or made Delvin connect him to her by the weird device, Seeing that he didn't do that confirmed Lu Yao's suspicion that something is wrong.

Lu Yao confirmed Delvin's authenticity by her father's words making her less on guard when near him, although she didn't let her guard down completely, for Lu Yao even slightly to let her guard down, showed how high her trust of her instincts and that the man who talked was her father is.

"What happened to him? Speak." Lu Yao commanded Delvin.

Delvin didn't feel annoyed, but on the contrary, he felt happy that the Miss was talking to him even if it was in a cold voice.

"Reporting to the young Miss. Although I am not supposed to relay this to you, however, since you are young, Miss, I will tell you." Hearing Delvin's serious tone, Lu Yao suddenly had a bad feeling.

"After The ole Master and the old Madame saved Master from those bastards of the blood colt sect and annihilated them. Master at that time was about to be raped by the sect master's daughter secretly. In retaliation to not taint his body and keep it clean for your mother, the Madam, Master did something that almost got him killed. After reaching a certain level, people would be able to start burning their power and life force for a little boost in power." Hearing what Delvin said, Lu Yao was both happy and sad to find out that her father was a faithful man that would even risk his life than to submit and fail her mother.

"The Master at that time was extremely weak due to having lost his blood and becoming weak over the years of constant blood extraction. So when he burned his power and had his level with his stats drop, he almost died and lost power, almost becoming a cripple. It was at that moment that your grandparents, the ole Master and the old Madam, arrived to see him in that state. Quickly taking out a recovery potion, they kept feeding them to the Master until his condition stabilized. After demolishing the Blood Colt sect, the Ole Master and the Old Madam took the higher echelons as prisoners and tortured them to death, before taking their souls out and torturing them even more till nothing of their souls was left making them unable to reincarnate in the future." Even after describing how they got their revenge and saved her father, Lu Yao wasn't happy to know that her father is in a critical condition and wanted to see him.

Seeing the sad look on Delvin's face after he remembered what happened to her father, Lu Yao decided to change the subject for now, and ask a question that has been bugging her for a while, "How did you know it was me? My mother made sure that no one can recognize me as to protect me, but you called me young Miss without hesitation as soon as your eyes laid on me, so how?"

Lu Yao was genuinely curious. Her mother told her that no one would be able to recognize her, not even her grandparents, unless she revealed her identity to them and confirmed it by a bloodline test.

An embarrassed look appeared on Delvin's face as he replied, "Actually, Young Miss, it was your grandfather's doing. He has a skill that will enable him to see the future for a limited time, and it was this skill that let him find your father before it was too late. It was, in truth, an accident. After hearing that your father was married to the Madam and still hadn't come to introduce her to them, they were curious to know who your mother is. So they used it. Nobody knows about this skill of his. That is why your grandfather was able to find the place where your father was confined. When the ole Master used the ability, his energy depleted fast, but before his strength was emptied, he saw scenes of your father being in a frail body and him almost being raped. Before the skill was utterly exhausted, he saw you coming here. Although your grandfather usually doesn't and shouldn't have the power to know what world you are in, ole Master was able to track you down and confirm what world you will be in before it was too late. However, the reason I knew that it was you was when your father woke up and talked with your grandfather. He explained everything that happened to him including him leaving and getting kidnapped before you were born and about your mother's skill to lock your form to protect you from danger after hearing about your grandfather's vision." Delvin explained everything in one breath, causing Lu Yao to wonder where he had stored that much oxygen in his small body.

Lu Yao concentrated carefully to spot any lie, but she found none, which forced her to believe that Delvin was telling the truth.

Lu Yao suddenly felt conflicted about what to do and where to go in the future. Her reason before to get stronger was so she can free her father and meet him, but now that she knew about her grandparents having saved him which leaves her with nothing to do, made Lu Yao who was given drive, power, and perseverance through the cause of saving her father feel lost.

Lu Yao didn't know what to do now, but she did know one thing, the thing that was on her mind ever since she learned the truth from Delvin. 'I want to see Mo'er.' Lu Yao had that lingering thought that kept pulsing in her mind now and then and decided that as soon as she is done here, she will go and meet Xue Mo. Maybe she can even finally express her feelings to Xue Mo since nothing is stopping her anymore.

"Delvin, I need you to do me a favor."

"Anything for the young Miss." Delvin had gotten used to Lu Yao ordering him after talking to her all this time.

"I want you to���.
