Chapter 354 - Empires Descent ( Part 2 ) (2/2)

”Wallace, why did just visit us now? Have you eaten yet?”

”Ahh… I haven't yet.” Wallace smiled as he replied to her mother.

”Let me prepare now…”

The young man felt relaxed being here as he felt guilty about Ace's situation.

'Ahh… I should bring him here next time.'

Wallace smiled at the thought as he brought out some gifts to his family. He used his dimensional storage space to store the 7th Generation Mana Artifacts that he received from Aeolia.

He knows that these advanced level Mana Artifacts would certainly help soldiers or magicians in real battles… Giving them to his people might be more beneficial if one would look at it.

However, he wanted to ensure the safety of his family first.

He lost his family in his previous life, but now, he wouldn't let it happen.

It is as simple as that…

That is why he doesn't think that it's a waste giving them the latest generation of mana artifacts. He only wanted to provide them additional security.

”What are these, Brother? Wait---”

Clarice asked but she suddenly had a hunch about the item in front of her.

”Is this the 7th Generation you've mentioned before?!”

Even Chase and Elaine were shocked after seeing Wallace's gift.

They could see a small bottle with black liquid on it. They thought that it's some kind of unique potion or perhaps some tonic that has been popular recently…

”Son, is that true?”

”Yes, mom… This is the Seventh Gen…”

”Haa~ I didn't think that I would live until the creation of 7th Gen…”

Chase muttered after hearing his son's confirmation.

His thoughts weren't baseless considering the gap between the Fourth Gen and the Fifth Gen, then the Fifth Gen to the Sixth Gen Mana Artifact.

Decades if not centuries would pass before another Generation was made… They have just heard about the 6th Gen that has been a hot topic a few weeks ago…

However, Wallace is already introducing the Seventh Gen to them.

”How does it work?”

”You can say that it will help us magicians create a synthetic mana core, a sentient mana and…”

Wallace shared his knowledge about the 7th Generation and spend the whole day with his family.

He discussed to them his plans, he told them the places they needed to hide in once the Empire descended… He also let his father explain the progress of their task about the Inheritance Pill.

Finally, he left them a couple of superior combat automatons that he pulled out from his dimensional storage space.

”Right… One last thing, please don't sacrifice yourself when we're in danger… You have to trust me… I'm very strong, mother… father…”

Wallace seriously looked at his parents before glancing at the rings on their finger…

Chase and Elaine squinted their eyes after noticing this.

They were a bit surprised but they also couldn't hide the happiness in their eyes after seeing that Wallace looks so reliable even at a young age.

They nodded at their son and promised that they'll trust him.

The young man smiled and left the town after a while…

He already completed his arrangements for his family.

***

Wallace returned to his command center within his territory at Mt. Ravencroft.

”Did anyone look for me?”

[ Yes. Charles Mavis visited once. He hinted that he discovered the floating island you're hiding and wanted to get into one. ]

”Urgh… Anyone else?”

Wallace understands the man's curiosity but he can't allow him there at this time.

[ None. ]

”I see… How's the situation above?”

[ The Empire's Fleet just passed over the Moon Base and is now heading here. Ace also wanted us to finish all the preparations. ]

”We've been ready for several days now…”

Wallace smirked as he sat down on his chair and closed his eyes…

Finally, it's time for them to act.
