“Stop! Without permission, no one is allowed to enter the Mansion of Lord Onard.” Aditya was secretly a little surprised after sensing that both guards actually were Peak 3rd order cultivators.
“Did the two of you forget who I am?” Hearing the familiar voice, both guard’s bodies trembled as quickly got on their knees the very next moment. How can they not recognize this voice when they have been hearing her voice for years now? Even though Julia left for a few years, everyone in the castle still remembered her.
While Aditya looked at the huge Castle in front of him. The Castle was the grandest and most luxurious Castle he has seen so far. Eleven massive, square towers form a protective barrier all around the castle and are connected by lower, thick walls made of yellow stone.
Elegant windows are scattered thinly around the walls in seemingly perfect symmetry, along with symmetric crenelations for archers and artillery.
“Are you not going to let us in?”
“Please accept our apologizes.” A great gate with tall wooden doors was opened up for Aditya and Julia to enter. Just as Julia step foot inside the castle, a certain someone who was sitting at the dining table sensed the familiar Aura.
“My child has returned.”
Boom!
While Julia led Aditya on a small path to arrive in front of a second door to the castle. Before she can push open the door, a figure opened the door faster than Aditya can react and hugged Julia.
“My child!!! I missed you so much.” Under the moonlight, Aditya was shocked seeing the woman that literally looked like the mature version of Julia.
Just like her the woman also had long purple hair. Julia’s mother was wearing a black long dress that perfectly hugged her curves. Compared to Julia, the woman’s body was more developed and her figure was more seductive and breath-taking. Her breast and back were bigger than Julia’s. While Julia had the charm of a beautiful virgin goddess, her mother had the mature Aura that gave her a unique charm.
While the mother and daughter hugged each other and looked lost in their own little world, Aditya’s eyes fell on the man standing 5 meters away from him. The man was looking at Aditya like he was looking at his biggest enemy.
‘He must be Julia’s father.’ Julia’s father was 6 feet tall man with short black hair. The man had a muscular body. Standing in front of this man was like standing in front of thousands of enemies. The way this man looked at Aditya was like he owed him millions of gold coins.
‘Why is he looking at him with so my hostility? I never even met him in my entire life.’ Aditya also realized one thing he cannot sense the men’s cultivation. This means that Julia’s father was at least a 4th order or maybe he was a 5th order cultivator.
The man looked like a savage animal who couldn’t wait to rip Aditya in half. He had this wild Aura around him that unconsciously made others feel afraid of him.
After a long Hug, Julia noticed her dear father was standing behind her mother. “Dad” 𝓲𝓫𝒓𝙖𝓭.𝒄𝙤𝓶
The wild savage lion melted down and became a cute puppet in front of his daughter. Aditya was shocked seeing how this man changed. One moment he was fiercely staring at Aditya like he was going to kill him, the next moment, he is hugging his daughter like it was the most gentle thing in the whole world.
‘Why I am receiving glares?’ Julia’s father angrily glared at him and the next second his expression softened as a happily smiled while patting his daughter’s head.
“My daughter, father has missed you so much. Next time please don’t leave without informing papa.”
Julia’s mother observed Aditya for an entire minute. The more she looked at her son-in-law, the more satisfied she looked. Right now Aditya wasn’t using his disguise, so her mother was able to see his real face.
“My apologies for the late introduction. I am Sophie Onard. You can just call me mother. And this is Adam Onard, Julia’s father.”
“There is no need to apologize aunty. My name is Aditya Bainnith.” Aditya bowed his head while introducing himself.
Meanwhile, after hugging his daughter, Adam looked like he has been satisfied. He walked in front of Aditya. “So it was because of you that my daughter left home. Kid, it looks like we will need to talk in private.”
“Honey, you can talk with Aditya later. They just arrived. Both of them just be tired.” Sophie gently smiled at Aditya. “Please come in.”
‘Wow! What a gentle mother! If only Julia was gentle as her mother.’ Aditya looked at Julia. She seems to have guessed his thoughts. She just coldly glared at him which again made him sigh. ‘I guess she has inherited a part of her father’s fierceness.’ 𝑖𝑟𝘦𝘢𝒹.𝑐ℴ𝘮
Aditya was a little shocked seeing a man who exactly looked like Watson standing before him and bowing his head. “Aditya let me introduce you to Walter. He is Watson’s twin brother.”
“Good evening, young master.” Aditya nodded his head in acknowledgment.
“Aditya, why don’t you take a shower and get changed before joining us for dinner? Since my daughter has returned with her fiance, I will make a feast tonight.” For a moment Aditya was dazed by how kind Julia’s mother was. She was the perfect wife material. Even though she was the wife of the duke, she was very humble, kind, and gentle.
“Knowing that you were going to come, I already have prepared a bedroom room for you. Walter, please show Aditya his bedroom.”
“Young Master, please come with me.” Aditya and Walter left.
“I suddenly remembered I have some work to do. I will be back before dinner.” Before Adam could take the first step, Sophie grabbed his shoulder. “Honey, since I am going to make a feast, why don’t you help me?” Knowing that his wife had already seen through his intention of bully….cough….meeting Aditya alone, Adam could only follow her to the kitchen.
“Where is Zak?” Julia asked while looking around.
“Your little brother already has gone to sleep. Should I send someone to wake him up?” Sophie asked her daughter.
“No. I can just wait till tomorrow and surprise him. Mom, I am also going to my room.” Sophie and Adam walked to the kitchen. In the house of Onard, Sophie was responsible for cooking. No maid or servant was allowed to cook for her family. She felt as a mother and a wife, it was her responsibility to cook.

“Young master, do you mind telling me a little about my brother? It has been some time since I last saw him.” Currently, Walter and Aditya were walking in the corridor.
“Watson is doing well. It was because of Watson that I can manage my Kingdom.”
“Haha! My brother always has been talented when it came to management work.”
“By the way, Does Watson have a family here?”
“Unfortunately no. Watson swore to follow lady Julia when she was born. I and Watson have been working as a butler for more than a century now. While I got married about 90 years ago, Watson stayed single.” Just like Watson, Walter was also a Mid 2nd-order cultivator. It seems both brothers did not have much talent in cultivation.
“Young Master, this is your room.”
“Thank you, Walter.”
“Haha! Young Master doesn’t have to thank me. By the way, the next bedroom is lady Julia’s room. If there is nothing, I will take my leave now. If you need anything then just call me.”
Seeing Walter leave, Aditya immediately did not enter his room. He instead stared at the room next to his. ‘Did Julia’s mother purposely arrange my room next to her daughter’s?’

After entering his bedroom, Aditya took out two pairs of clothes and put them on the bed. His bedroom had a double bed, white cushions, a light red carpet laid on the floor, a table, a wardrobe, and a couch next to the window.
Grabbing the white towel, he entered the bathroom to take a long shower. After traveling for 2 days, he was finally getting time to take a long and relaxing shower.

“What do you think of Aditya?” Adam asked as he cut vegetables for his wife. Because of his fierce and wild nature, Adam was given the nickname Wild Lion. If outsiders saw that one of the strongest Duke on the continent, the man who was famously known as the Wild Lion, was cutting vegetables for his wife, they would end up having a heart attack.
“I think he is suitable for our daughter. Everyone makes mistakes. We can’t just judge this Aditya based on his past actions. In just two months, that boy created chaos in the eastern region. Building a 3-tier kingdom in just 2 months. In my eyes, there is no one who is more suitable than Aditya.”
