Grandpa Yofan looked at that elder and shook his head.
"No, Daniel. The esteemed sacred beast can't get out of the prairie as she wished to. The family head has to be the one fishing her out…"
Grandpa Yofan paused a bit before continuing.
"Only then the esteemed sacred beast will help our family. That's the rule of any sacred guardian in charge of protecting a family."
Because of the rule, when a family head of a family with a sacred beast couldn't get the sacred beast' recognition, their family would deteriorate just like the Sloan Family.
The previous Sloan Family head, Ainsley's father, didn't get the sacred beasts' recognition, resulting in even more deterioration.
Ainsley was the one that slowly lifted the family when she finally contracted one of the sacred beasts.
However, all of that was useless. In the face of this sudden invasion, what could the baby do?
Grandpa Yofan knew that Ainsley was strong, and she had lots of potential. But he didn't expect her to be a hero to save the family just to harm her foundations.
No. My adorable family head has to live well. If she grows strong enough in the future, the Sloan Family can be revived anytime…
So, I can't drag her down!
Grandpa Yofan was already determined to keep Ainsley away from this sudden invasion.
"Huu…" Grandpa Yofan lifted his weary face as he looked at the night sky with no stars at all.
The full moon was still there, but it seemed to be the last moon that the Sloan Family would ever see.
'Ain…'
Grandpa Yofan clutched his wounded chest as he wobbled forward. His clothes were dyed in his enemies blood, yet his own blood was also mixed there.
There's no way he didn't sustain any injuries whatsoever since he overused his abilities and even tried to protect his men.
Alas, the old man didn't even have more than 30% energy left in his body.
His black hole ability was still sealed by those 10 neutraliser ability users, so he could barely use it now.
Plus the energy expenditure was too high. He couldn't use his black hole ability anymore.
Else he might die.
Grandpa Yofan closed his eyes as he stood in the backyard, so close to the battlefield. He put his hands behind his tattered robe and slowly let out an exhausted sigh.
'Ain...how are you doing there?'
The old man's face turned paler as time went by. His breath was getting shorter and shorter…
He's obviously already at his limit.
Yet, his mind didn't linger around his own self. He still had time to think about his beloved family head, the one he saw as his own granddaughter.
'Ain, are you doing alright?'
The old man coughed blood once.
'Is there anyone bullying you at the capital?'
His body shook. Sweats drenched his back.
'Ain, are you making money just fine?'
A faint smile hung on his face, yet blood trickled down the old man's lips.
'Ain...did you make any friends?'
Grandpa Yofan couldn't help but smile when he thought of Ainsley.
Even when the situation in the battlefield was getting more chaotic until the 9 generals had to step in, the old man still wanted to savour this moment to think about Ainsley.
After all, this might be his last chance…
As he might not even live past midnight.
'Ain...I hope that you will always be safe and sound…'
Grandpa Yofan let out a soft chuckle amidst the screams and cries of the battlefield.
'Ain. I hope that you're enjoying your time...and you're laughing happily right now…'
At the same time, at another place, Ainsley was laughing happily, surrounded by the big shots.
"Hahahaha. Twank ywou, Gwandpa and gwandma!"
She received gifts here and there.
"Zack, look! A good item!"
Her name spread throughout the casino…
"That's the Godtoddler. She's a miracle!"
The guests at the auction hall were trying to butter her up.
"Miss Godtoddler! Nice to meet you! I– "
"Miss Godtoddler!"
"Miss!"
She face-slapped the Aretha siblings.
"Hahaha. That's the power of my luck manipulation!"
Bidding for the elf.
"I have to get that elf!"
Planning for the Sloan Family's bright future…
"Our family shall sell potions!"
She's living for the brightest future.
In the meantime, unfortunately, the war had entered the fourth wave.
The ability-user troops from the enemy side had started to charge into the battlefield.
"ATTACK!!"
The Sloan Family's 300 ability users also joined in the fray together with the 9 generals.
These people gave it they're all.
They fought, fought, fought, until their last blood.
"AHHH!"
"NOO!"
"KILL!"
"FOR THE SLOAN FAMILY!"
CLASH. CLASH. BOOM! BANG!
The sound of abilities clashing with each other. The helpless scream and the never-ending cries.
The voices which were full of hope for the Sloan Family…
Everything entered Grandpa Yofan's ears as he looked at the battlefield with a blank look.
He knew that his role in this battle would end soon. He didn't even have energy crystals to replenish his energy to fight. His old body was dragging him down…
The 6 elders were getting exhausted. The barrier protecting the mansion had started to dim down. It would break anytime soon.
The Sloan Family members breathed their last breath one by one, bit by bit.
The sheer number of the enemy troops suppressed the Sloan Family members. The dark brown ground had turned into crimson, dyed in blood.
The war continued for one hour...but the Sloan Family still persisted….
Until the big boss entered the battlefield.
"Hoo...the Sloan Family is a tough nut to crack, hm?"
A blue-ish figure rose to the air.
A pair of white wings spread across the night sky….
The Pegasus had entered the battlefield.
