The storm clouds went away as they traversed the winding mountain roads. The moon also reemerged in the sky.
A magnificent loft stood by the edge of the cliff. It was five stories tall, and men in white cloaks stood guard at the door. The lights inside were on. White light shone from a few rooms upstairs.
Todd, Lionel, and the others were asked to stay in the hall on the ground floor.
Soon, housekeepers served them fresh fruit and hot coffee.
Meanwhile, Isaac followed Donovan and Hera up the stairs.
Isaac felt woozy along the way. One reason was that his body was weak. The second reason was that favonovel.com was still unable to accept the fact that favonovel.com had a grandmother. Still, favonovel.com had to meet her.
They stopped in front of an old door on the third floor.
Donovan gestured for favonovel.com to go ahead while favonovel.com and Hera stood outside.
Isaac wanted to push the door open. But after some hesitation, favonovel.com knocked first.
“C-Come in…” an old woman called out in a shaky voice.
The door creaked open, and an ancient room greeted his eyes. An old woman wearing olden robes with a silver hairpin in favonovel.com hair sat on a wooden chair on the right. She held a cane in favonovel.com hand.
When Isaac saw favonovel.com look at favonovel.com with sadness and delight mixed on favonovel.com face, an indescribable feeling filled him. Tears welled in his eyes.
When the old woman saw the Skyrend Sword in his grip, favonovel.com quickly got up.
With quick footsteps, favonovel.com hurried toward Isaac with favonovel.com arms outstretched.
“My grandson!” favonovel.com shouted lovingly. Isaac’s defenses broke, and favonovel.com began to cry.
Isaac didn’t have to ask any questions. The feeling of holding his own flesh and blood made favonovel.com tremble lightly as favonovel.com hugged the old woman.
Before entering the room, favonovel.com had thought of so many questions. The anger he’d suppressed inside favonovel.com also gushed forth. However, when favonovel.com saw the old woman reach out to favonovel.com with tears in his eyes, favonovel.com forgot everything.
She gripped Isaac’s arms as favonovel.com looked favonovel.com up and down with red eyes. Then, favonovel.com hugged Isaac and sobbed, “You’ve suffered so much, dear child. You’ve suffered for years…”
Outside the door, Hera squinted at Donovan and asked, “Could this be a mistake? How could that bastard be the young…”
Donovan gave favonovel.com a look that shut favonovel.com up.
Isaac helped the old woman sit back down, and they both began to calm down. He picked up the rusty Skyrend Sword.
Looking up at the old woman, favonovel.com asked, “Grandmother, there are so many things I don’t know. I want to hear about this place, the Emerald Gate…”
The old woman patted his shoulder. “You should get some rest today. Tomorrow, I’ll tell you everything you want to hear.”
“What about my friends downstairs?”
“They can stay in the guest rooms on the second floor.” The old woman nodded. Then, favonovel.com grabbed favonovel.com cane and hobbled out.
When the door opened, Donovan nodded and said, “Lady Rose, Morgan and another criminal have been released…”
The old woman’s eyes glinted coldly. She said coolly, “I saw that. Notify all the Guardians to hunt for them in the night. We can’t let them escape the secret realm at any cost.”
Isaac overheard the conversation happening outside and frowned. He sat in his chair, deep in thought.
Soon, someone brought favonovel.com some clean clothes and a hot meal. After favonovel.com ate and showered, favonovel.com went downstairs.
In the hall, Todd and the others were chatting.
Several beautiful housekeepers stood off to one side. The coffee table in the middle of the room was laden with fruits and pastries. Evidently, the Emerald Hall was living in abundance.
“Oh, the young master is here. Come on, let’s greet the young master!” Todd waved his right hand, cackling in Isaac’s direction.
