Instead of going to his office, Adonis told Sho to drive back to the family mansion he got from the late chairman by pretending as his 'Hidden son' and took everything under control. From his private property to business, black marker shares and so much more were passed down to Adonis in just a night in secret.
Everything was so busy with the company that in the meantime, Adonis manipulated their memory and he became the next chairman. The existence of the chairman's wife and spoiled son was erased from everywhere so they thought they also died at the enemy's hand. The other cousins of the chairman were no match for Adonis so they had to cut off their high dreams of becoming the next heir.
So, the main house became Adonis's house.
The private property was near a mountain so it took them 10 minutes to reach there. The house was a huge mansion with so many statues decorated in the main garden.
The car stopped in front of the house and the three of them got off to enter it. Ivon was surprised to see its size.
"Master, this is our home from now on."
Two servants with mana inside their bodies opened the door and what he saw first was the burned painting of his previous self and Adonis'.
It was half burned because of the dragon guardian's crazy act but still, he was surprised to see he still kept it.
"Looks like you still love this painting."
Ivon touched the burned painting and felt the presence of the dragon guardian's mana. But it was lost so he didn't hold any regrets in his heart.
"Master. I wonder what the name of this body you're currently in. I want to know what my master really looks like."
I knew he was going to ask this question someday. I'm currently living my 4th life where I spent my life with 3 different identities. I have 3 names and I'm currently using the 4th one.
But if someone asks what my real name is, my mind will say Elerous without any hesitation. But saying my name Elerous is nothing but showing my neck to the executor.
Moreover, I don't have any memories from my 1st life so I don't have an attraction to the first name. The only name that triggers my heart is Ivon North, and Viktor.
But Ivon is dead in this world so I don't use it anymore and I don't like it because the church priest named me. So the last name North is acceptable.
So putting all of them together, I vote for the name Viktor E. North the most.
"Master.. is there something wrong?"
"It's Viktor E. North. My real name is Viktor E. North."
Adonis smiled to hear that his last name was also North so he ordered one of his men to make two ids immediately.
I wonder how much work he has done to accumulate everything in his grasp in just a week when I was busy playing around.
He told me that he was not going to let me do any work but the pressure he was carrying is way too much for him. I can't let my butler do all the work though. I need to do something for him at least.
There were only 3 people working inside the house than it was supposed to have by comparing the size of it. Since Adonis was the master of the house, he no longer had to do all the work.
But this time, it was different.
After Adonis found Viktor, he cut off 10 workers from the house and replaced it with only 3. He was again back to his position as a butler for his master and he had to start serving him again.
This house is really luxurious and well-maintained. I wonder what my identity is going to be now. Adonis' brother? Or his nephew…
Adonis came inside Viktor's new room and saw he was looking through the books on the shelves. It belonged to the previous master but since he was dead, Viktor became the real master so the room technically belonged to him.
"Master, we need to talk," Adonis said with a serious expression on his face.
"Sure. Let's go inside my dimensions room."
Viktor opened the door to his dimension room and took him into a secret room where he never let Adonis in before. It was a room with no gravity and everything inside of it was floating. Then, Adonis came back to his senses and couldn't find Viktor around him. So he said, "Master! Where are you?"
There was no response. So he tried to cast magic but nothing was working. It was a place that eats every magic that a person casts.
"Master… Is something wrong?"
"Adonis, what are your thoughts about me?"
A stranger's voice came from everywhere so he couldn't understand where it was coming from. The voice was different and it sounded nothing like Neul or Viktor that he used to hear. It was the voice of another person that he never heard of. But somehow he knew it was coming from his master so he said, "Master, you're a very kind person who looks after his dear people."
"Then, do you think I'll be able to take my next steps successfully? The next step of my plan needs millions of sacrifices. I might become the worst person ever to exist who kills the innocent without showing any mercy. Will you still follow me as a loyal knight?"
Adonis didn't wait for a single second and answered without any hesitation. "I vowed to follow you as a slave, master. And I do not hold any feelings towards any person besides you, master. So I will follow you and stand beside you even if the world is against you. But this time, I will protect my master and I promise that I won't fail. Please don't leave my sight anymore, master."
Viktor laughed and came out of the shadows to show himself in front of Adonis.
A man with snow-white skin with a golden hollow on his chest came in front of him with a soft smile. His face looked similar to Viktor Harvort.
His eyelashes were white as snow and his eyes were sparkling silver as it was reflecting on the light that was coming from no source. His long silver hair was floating like seaweed in space so he looked as if he was swimming in deep water. The floating hollow above his head made him look like an angel who came down from heaven and was ready to bestow mercy upon the helpless souls.
It was the real appearance of Elerous, the guardian of records.
"I am Elerous, the guardian of the record that you served for 17 years."
Adonis was staring at his face with his deep orange eyes. He was so astonished by his master's real appearance that he forgot to say anything. He was gazing at the beauty of his master.
Elerous looked at his face and float down to touch his face. In his real form, his body was bigger than Adonis so his face looked like a small human head in his hands. His real appearance was the size of a troll that stands more than 10 feet.
"Hahaha. Adonis looks so small in my real form."
"Master. Is this what you look like?"
"Yes. This is my true form and I can't show this to anyone but you. Now tell me Adonis, what do you want to tell me?"
"Master, I want you to rest and have fun in this life. You've been through a lot so that's why I'm going to send you to a hybrid school. This time, I will take care of everything."
Viktor was dumbfounded.
"Eh?"
"I'm going to take care of how you're going to live and that's why I'm sending you to a school where other hybrids study. I've already prepared the class you're going to attend so you don't have to think about the entrance exam."
"Wai..Wait.."
"Also, there's a person that I can't get through so I believe sending you is the best option. Since I shouldn't annoy a person who's more powerful than me."
Since when did he become a pushover..
"But why as a student? You could've sent me as a teacher?" Viktor asked.
"Because your new body is only 19 years old and there are some classmates of yours who attend the hybrid school. So I can't send you as a teacher. And rest assured, there will be no problem. You are stronger than that person."
Viktor frowned outside but on the inside, he smirked because this was also related to his next plan. He was about to search for that person Adonis just mentioned but luckily, everything went smoothly.
"Okay then, I'll attain the school as you wished."
"Thank you for accepting my request, master."
Viktor took Adonis out of his 'soul space' and told him to prepare a gaming room for him. He was happy that Adonis was eager to take care of everything but he knew that his next step was the hardest one of them.
Because this time, it will be the death of a very important character.
