The journey went on smoothly. After fourteen days, a blurry outline of the city wall finally appeared in everyone’s eyes.

Looking at the familiar city wall in the distance, Locke sighed in his mind and couldn’t help but recall the scene of his leaving here half a year ago. At that time, he was still a lonely young man with no practice base and the name of “loser”.

Looking at the city wall from afar, Locke suddenly felt a sense of teenage spirit, and his missing for Count Capet in his mind was growing exponentially.

‘Father, I went back.’

After saying the word in his mind, Locke turned to Kotter and said, “Uncle Kotter, we go first!”

He wanted to give his father a surprise, so he didn’t plan to send someone to inform Count Capet in advance.

Sleipnir responded and ran towards the direction of Kabia City. As he ran, his hooves gradually left the ground. Not long after, he entered the sky and disappeared from the sight of Kotter and the others.

At first, Kotter was shocked by Sleipnir’s flying skills. Fortunately, they were familiar with each other now, so he didn’t show much surprise.

‘Sir Count, Master Locke had lived up to your expectations. Now he was a strong man.’

Looking in the direction where Locke disappeared, Kotter smiled with relief. Taking a deep breath, he stopped sighing and waved his hand to signal the carriages to continue forward.

On the other side, as Sleipnir walked forward, the familiar streets became clearer and clearer to Locke. Athena also looked around the city curiously to see what kind of place Locke had grown up.

In less than a minute, under the command of Locke, Sleipnir flew directly into a building and finally landed in a yard.

Puff!

Locke and Athena jumped off Sleipnir’s back.

“This is where I used to live.”

Locke said intoxicatedly, stretching out his hands and taking a deep breath.

In the middle of the yard was a rockery, from which a stream of spring water flowed out. Below the rockery was a pool, where several goldfish were swimming freely. Beside the rockery, there was a spotless chair made of redwood and a table made of sandalwood. It was obvious that someone was cleaning it at ordinary times. There were also many flowers and trees neatly trimmed in the courtyard.

“I didn’t expect you to be such a romantic man.”

Looking around the delicate surroundings, Athena teased.

“I have always been.” Locke pouted.

After the failure of the last awakening of magic talent, he was depressed for a long time, so he found something for himself and paid attention to the layout of the courtyard and the planting of flowers and trees.

Sleipnir walked around the yard, nodded, and praised, “It does look good.”

Just as they were talking, a voice suddenly came from outside.

Looking at the door, Locke had a complicated expression. With the divine sense, he could see clearly the face of the person for the first time.

Standing next to Locke, Athena and Sleipnir didn’t say anything. They could feel that something was wrong with Locke.

Creak!

The door was opened.

“I didn’t know how is Locke, the bastard, doing now.”

“When I see him next time, I will teach him a lesson…”

The man was about 40 years old. He was tall with a little beard on his face. Looking powerful and tall, he muttered and walked towards the yard. However, before he took two steps, he suddenly froze and then stood there like a wood.

Count Capet fixed his eyes on Locke’s face as if to make sure whether he had a visual hallucination. After more than ten seconds, Count Capet tentatively called out, “Locke?”

Looking at the familiar and kind face of Count Capet, Locke nodded with a smile.

“Oh, my son, it’s really you!”

Seeing Locke nod, Count Capet’s eyes turned red. He rushed up and held Locke in his arms.

Count Capet’s shoulders trembled slightly with an excited face.

Athena and Sleipnir didn’t say a word. They just watched the two meet silently.

Half a minute later, Locke patted on Count Capet’s shoulder and said with a smile, “If you push harder, I’ll be strangled to death by you.”

“It would be better if you died. You brat, why didn’t you tell me in advance when you came back?”

Although complaining, Count Capet let go of Locke.

“I just want to give you a surprise.” Locke replied with an awkward smile.

Count Capet rolled his eyes at Locke and noticed the beautiful and dignified girl beside Locke.

“Let me introduce. This is my father, Wharton Capet.”

Locke introduced his father to Athena with a smile. Then he introduced Athena, “This is Athena, my friend.”

“Hello, Mr. Capet.”

Athena greeted Count Capet with a smile.

“Hello, Miss Athena.”

Count Capet replied. He felt a natural noble temperament from Athena, which must only be possessed by someone in a high position. He was sure that the beautiful girl in front of him was definitely not an ordinary person.

“Boy, that’s great. I can’t believe that you have deceived such a good girl back.” Count Capet approached Locke and whispered with a snicker.

Although Count Capet’s voice was low, Athena and Sleipnir were not ordinary people. They heard every word Count Capet said just now.

For a moment, there was a blush on Athena’s fair cheeks. Although she didn’t retort, she still glared at Locke, while Sleipnir looked up at the sky, pretending that he heard nothing,

“Alas! Father, we haven’t seen each other for a long time. Let’s talk about something else.” Locke cleared his throat and stopped Count Capet to talk more about the topic.

Seeing that Athena didn’t make any explanation, Count Capet was surer of this idea in his mind. However, at the same time, he felt a little worried when surprised. Icacia Continent was a place where strength was the most important. Locke didn’t know magic, nor did he have practice fighting spirit. Did he match with Athena?

“Hello, Mr. Capet. Call me Sleipnir.”

When Count Capet was lost in thought, Sleipnir waved his hoof and greeted him with a smile.

This eight-legged horse could talk! With his eyes wide open, Count Capet stared at Sleipnir, unable to react.

Although he was shocked, he waved his hand in a somewhat dull tone and said, “You… Hello.”

It took Count Capet for a while to recover from the shock. He looked at Sleipnir in amazement.

“Uncle Kotter might be here in half an hour.”

Noticing that Count Capet was stunned, Locke spoke out to pull his attention back, with a mysterious face, “Father, I have brought a lot of good things with me this time.”

“Good thing?”

Count Capet was slightly stunned, and then said crossly, “Don’t I know about Lister?”

He was a little worried and said, “Don’t buy anything expensive. Our family is not short of anything now.”

Locke smiled slightly and didn’t explain.
