The Author Is Speechless

Chapter 73: New Home

The little girl in the laboratory became fully healthy after she was healed with the holy magic of Viktor's crest of the holiness of his right hand. Her father was astonished to see him use holy magic on her so casually. So he thought he might want something more from him.

"Did you just use holy magic?" The man asked.

Viktor winked at him and nodded yes.

This girl's powers are different from an average person. She has a strong mana circle around her heart and she absorbed my holy magic pretty well. Well, it's all in her bloodline if I want to praise her.

The man who's standing in front of me is called the demon of the east. He's a master of sword and his main mana source is the eastern cultivation technique. He was the leader of the Dae Huun Sect and the richest man on his continent. But he lost everything after a civil war broke out and her wife died by leaving her newbie daughter. He took care of his only daughter by leading his life as a traveller. But his misfortune took another leap into his life and took his daughter's everything.

The poor man just wanted to live his life happily with his family but that darn villain just messed up everything.

But what is he going to do now? Since his daughter is all healed, he must've thought about going back to his continent to reclaim his power.

At that very moment, The man kneed in front of him and said, "I am forever indebted to you, my master."

Eh?

Viktor was left speechless.

"What are you doing?" Viktor asked.

"I'm respecting my new master who saved my daughter's life. I sold everything I had just to find a cure but I failed. This was supposed to be my last trip. I almost made up my mind to give up. But when you helped her, my heart almost stopped to see my daughter come back to her original state! Please, take me as your slave or whatever you want. Just let my daughter live her life. I will be your dog for the rest of my life!!"

The man burst into tears while begging close to Viktor's feet like a dog. He was feeling uncomfortable because he didn't like to see people begging like that in front of him.

So, he sat on the floor and said, "Please don't bow before me. I don't like it. And you're free from debt. If you wish, I can appoint you as a personal knight, not a slave. And your daughter will receive full treatment to help her grow as a fine lady. And I pay my companions a lot of money."

But the man started to cry more after hearing his words. To his eyes, Viktor was like a god who came straight from heaven to save him from his unfortunate life.

"I, Sadat Inu, pledge my loyalty to my new master. I will sacrifice my life if my master wants, I will kill everyone if my master wants. I am a loyal knight of my master."

"I, Viktor Harvort, accept the proposal of a traveller, Sadat Inu who pledged his loyalty to me. But my knight isn't obligated to sacrifice his life for me. My knight's priority will be to save his life first."

Inu was shocked to hear his words. "But master, why can't I sacrifice my life for you?"

"I'm not weak. I'm the strongest person who's living in this world. So, don't be silly to do such things."

The little girl woke up after an hour of her treatment and both of them became a part of Viktor's family. Now, Viktor has five members in his family.

The next day in the morning.

"Hiiii! I'm Ibuki Inu!! I heard that you gave my father a job! Is that true?"

A little girl came to Viktor running on her small legs with the brightest smile that ever existed on earth.

His heart skipped a beat.

"Oh, my heavens! Isn't this our little Inu? Do you like your dresses?"

Viktor picked her up and started to walk towards the carriage. It was moving day, so he had to prepare a lot of things to leave his house.

"Yess! I love my dresses!! Thank you for the dolls too, master Viktor!!"

"Oh my, you know my name?"

"Yes! Papa told me your name is Viktor Harvort. And papa told me to call you lord. But I choose to call you master Viktor like papa."

Viktor laughed when he heard the little girl's sweet words and told her to call him whatever she wants.

"Master, the preparation is done. We are fully prepared to leave." Adonis opened the door of the carriage and Viktor went inside with the little girl. Sadat Inu was riding on a horse outside to guard the carriage and they started their journey to the Harvort residence.

To be honest, I didn't want to move into the duke's house at first. But his behaviour and the actual Viktor's mother was eager to see him. So I had to change my decision and agreed to his proposal.

His father already declared his second son as the heir of the Harvort family. So, Viktor's inheritance chance was zero. But when he saw that I don't have any interest in his lands and power, he decided to bring me back to the family as the first son.

But I don't get something. Why didn't he say anything about my existence to my younger brothers? I'm going there now but they don't know anything about me. They are just living their normal life as they did for all those years.

It took the carriage to reach the Harvort residence in only ten minutes. So, it made Ibuki a little disappointed. She thought that the ride would take a whole day.

The gates to the Harvort residence opened and three carriages went inside by following a maid of the house. The main house was so big and luxurious that Ibuki and Kathryn kept staring at it. But Adonis's expression looked as if he was disappointed in something.

The duke and a woman with silver eyes came out of the house to greet Viktor. The duke was happy to see him but the mother's face was telling something else. It was a mixture of happiness, guilt, sorrow and loneliness. Her feelings were turning into tears in her eyes and they reached the dry ground.

"Baby… my baby Viktor. Mom is so sorry. Mom …hicc...hic..mommy missed you so much!!" She ran to Viktor and held him immediately to let loose her cry out all those tears she was holding in her heart. She was a helpless mother who had to leave his son all alone just to save his life.

Even though it wasn't his real mother, his tears came out of his eyes and vanished before it drops from his razor-sharp chin.

Is this how a parent loves their children? They don't want anything for exchange. They just want their son to be healthy and alive.

"Son, welcome back."

Viktor looked at his father and saw a soft smile on the corner of his lips.

"Thank you, father."

The reunion made all the maids and workers inside the house surprised. It became a hot topic in just a minute, so the Duke called his youngest sons inside his office room 10 minutes after Viktor's arrival.

The office room's air was colder than the rest of the house. An intense pressure was flowing around and then, the door to the office room opened.

Two young men came inside the room with confused expressions. They were also worried because their father never called them together out of the blue.

The tallest of them asked, "You called us father? Is there something wrong?"

"Have a seat." The duke answered with a rough tone of voice.

Viktor was sitting right in front of them but they didn't even feel his presence. He was glaring at his brother's face because they looked similar to each other. The second son of the house was tall, short silver hair with purple eyes. The perfect replica of the duke.

But the youngest one was the same as Viktor. He had silver eyes and long hair. But he wasn't as tall as Viktor.

"Henry, Feros, I know you have a lot of questions about the closed wing of our house, right?"

Both of them were startled to hear his question because they were forbidden from asking any question about it. They weren't even allowed to set foot inside the upper section of the house. It was called the closed wing.

"But father, you were the one who told us not to ask anything about the closed wing. Even the butler of the house forbids any maid from entering the wing. But why is it open now?"Henry asked.

"Because the owner of that place is back home. I want to introduce someone to you guys now. Don't be too shocked."

Viktor turned off his invisibility skills and became visible out of the blue right in front of them. Surprisingly, Feros was the first person to turn his head to Viktor's face.

Both of them became too shocked to see another person who looks just like them. They were unable to process what exactly was going on.

"This is Viktor Harvort. Your eldest brother."

Henry and Feros knew who Viktor was, but they never saw Viktor's face in the office before. Not even inside the military grounds. But there was only one person named 'Viktor' in the Vestrain kingdom. So they immediately understand what kind of man he was.

Viktor looked at those faces full of surprise and said, "Did I surprise you guys? I only found out about you two a few days ago."

"You're…you're that Viktor right? The branch director of the United peace organization?"

"Yes. And I assume that you are the heir of the Harvort family?"

Henry nodded his head yes.

"You don't have to be that scared of me. I won't be fighting for the inheritance because I'm too busy with my work. And I agree to come here because of my mother and father's request. So, you don't have to be on your guard all the time."

"Viktor is right. He's here to stay with his family for 10 to 20 years. Then he will leave."

Both of the brothers were confused to hear his father's words. So they ask the reason behind it. And found out Viktor wasn't just a strong man, he was a 9th class magician.

"I had no idea my mother gave birth to such a monster."

Viktor laughed when he heard Feros's words. And said," You're right. Our parents are strong."
