Chapter 69 (1/2)

Kerin had almost jumped on to Marcus for a hug but Melova held her back. They were really happy once they knew that they were a Guild. Marcus felt haughty when he saw how much they had liked his new guild name.

Before parting Marcus whispered to Luka about how he felt the rumour could be possibly true and asked him to tell his informant to Delve deeper into the matter and then report back to him as soon as possible.

Marcus knew deep inside, this was going to be a race against time. The One who finds the secret first..WINS.

Soon they were off to their own ways. The Guardians promised to meet each other the next day. The Day when they'll raid the Dungeon.

......

A surprise awaited Marcus as he returned, his destroyed house and the Open Ground along with the woods had been repaired. It must've been the work of Dave, He thought.

His House was repaired the same way it was before, which was good because in it didn't give him a weird feeling when he stepped on to the carpet sprawled on the wooden floor.

Walking into the same land but differently modelled house would have left a tiny bit of guilt and remorse within the 18 year old young man.

He felt guilt and remorse because it was and wasn't because of him that the house broke down. Marcus thought It was because of his negligence that the God was the first one to land the attack and at the same time he kept on saying that the God attacking would have caught anyone off guard even The Flame Emperor himself!!.

But thinking about the recent past wouldn't do him good anyway and he chuckled when he realized that the house had broke down the second time the previous day.

With a handsome smile etched on his polished face, Marcus opened the door. Albert and Reiren were already inside, chilling in the Living room.

Evy and Iris were like always, playing in their room.

Albert peeked from the whitewashed wall and shot a familiar glance and a warm smile. Marcus shot one back and called back his attire before walking towards the hall and to the stairs.

Only a black trouser covered his chiseled body when he took a step on to the stairs, his head bobbed to the voice coming from the Television.

WAIT.

Marcus's eyes were wide open as he turned his body towards his parents. His eyes darted from his father's surprised face and then to the black box fixed on the wall which was broadcasting some sort of reporting...

TELEVISION??!!!!!!!. ONLY THE KING AND LEGENDARY SEED USERS HAD TELEVISION CONNECTIONS IN THEIR HOMES.

”Dad, How..When...who?”

Marcus's voice struggled to find words as he stared like a moron at the TV, his fingers pointed straight towards it.

”Heh?”

Albert snapped but soon understand what his son meant.

”Ah, The Television became something common after you went...missing. Surprisingly the production speed of these things suddenly blew up and it was being set up for sale and they were cheap, but not so cheap that the field working me could afford it”

Marcus was always the first one to understand matters the first time they were spoken, because he thought it was just time consuming if he asked it again instead of just thinking it through inside his mind.

”Ah, I see..No wonder the Skyscrapers were weird and lighted up”

Marcus slapped his forehead as he remembered his trip to Dave's villa last night.

The Skyscrapers were displaying advertisements for various types of magic potions and necessities on huge screens. They had piqued his interest highkey (To a very high extent) that Marcus got lost inside his thoughts.

”Then It must've been Dave who gave this right??..I thought so..”

”No”

Marcus's words were cut midway just as his father denied.
