章 86: Unmatched

Sat within the Mansion's hall, Uncle Seth looked at Adonis with a smile.

He'd been growing so fast.

'The liittle bastard is becoming like a mix of the two. How terrifying.'

While Adonis didn't know much about his parent's past, Uncle Seth knew all about it.

There even was a time where like most men of the world, he attempted to court his mother, only to nearly die to the fury of a certain old man.

These memories flooded Uncle Seth's mind and he smiled but seeing Adonis stand there, alone, without any family, a bitter wave of hate erupted.

No child deserved such a fate and yet, the little boy he saw in front of him had no other choice. He could only keep growing and growing until the stars were within his reach.

It pained him.

'I'll protect him for you, Caesar.'

When Adonis was younger, forced to slave his days away studying for his royal studies exams, he'd developed a myriad of nasty habits to pass the time.
