Rise of the White Dragon

Chapter 290: Eating Out of the Palm of Your Hand

Saulo was happy to see Luan, Ingrid and, Lenore arrive. His smile grew even deeper, startling those who were used to seeing him generally act serious, especially these days now that he was President of Brazil.

“Child, come hither, let your great-grandfather look at you a little better,” Saul waved to Lenore.

Lenore felt nervous. It was rare for her to feel that way. In front of Saul, she felt an incredible familiarity. As a vampire, she was very sensitive to bloodlines, and Saul not being good at hiding it and not even trying to do that, Lenore could feel a very strong connection when looking at him.

After watching her for a few seconds, he laughed out loud and said a string of: “Good, good, good…”

Obviously, he didn’t know exactly how all this had happened. He just knew that something mystical happened, and his grandson already had a grown daughter. But, he wasn’t interested in how it happened; he was more open-minded in that regard, and if he needed to know, he believed his grandson and daughter would tell him.

Lenore’s expression was rigid, but Luan, who watched closely, could see a small glimmer of happiness in her eyes. Nilson, Luan’s uncle saw them arrive and entered, locking himself in his room. His memories were erased, but his fear of Luan was not. He was terrified just seeing him, it was so instinctive.

“Mr. Saulo, it’s done,” said a woman in her early thirties who spoke, wearing maid clothes. Slender and tall, with a slender back, straight and well-proportioned, she was of a rigid disposition.

Amelia Santos was a housekeeper who had been with Saulo for over 10 years. Her eyes when she saw Luan, Ingrid, and Lenore showed respect and admiration. It was a little different from the look she gave when looking at Saulo.

“Let’s go in,” Saulo said in a welcoming tone. Ingrid and Lenore nodded. Luan paused, then started walking. He ignored the sensual looks the maids gave him and walked to Saulo’s house.

Ingrid looked in the direction Luan had looked before and wondered, ‘What did he see or feel?’

When he didn’t say anything, she remained silent and continued walking.

After they were seated around a table, Saulo showed a serious expression, “Luan, what happened to cause you to come visit me without warning?”

Luan didn’t show any surprise at the question. His eyes deepened as he said, “I’ve made a new game update…”

For the next 20 minutes, Luan explained why he did this and about the concern of other races starting to revolt at seeing only humans evolve.

After hearing everything, Saulo gave his opinion. “It makes sense. I agree with that. As for the rest, let me figure it out,” Saulo smiled.

“Be careful for the next few days,” Luan warned, “There is a chance that some beings of other races are up to something, I have discovered a thing or two; likely they’ll try to attack my island, but just to be on the safe side, be on the alert. If anything happens, use this.”

Luan handed him a device. It was something round and flat, like a disk, with a button in the middle.

“By pushing the button, a barrier will form and protect the owner of the device,” Luan explained, “To be recognized as the owner, you need to use a drop of blood. Another thing, when that happens, I modified it a little bit to let me know you’re in danger. Don’t hesitate just because you don’t want to bother me.”

“Haha ha! What grandfather would I be if I didn’t ask my grandson for help when I’m in danger? As young people today say; don’t worry, your grandfather knows what to do.”

Luan laughed a little, feeling more relaxed. Even Lenore laughed at what Saulo said. For Ingrid it was no different.

“Since the serious conversation is over, let’s take a walk in the garden.” Saulo got up.

Sounds of chairs being scraped echod as Luan, Ingrid, and Lenore got up almost at the same time.

“Let’s go,” Luan said neutrally.

Soon they walked towards the back door. Before, the garden had not been half as beautiful as it is now. The current garden is a beautiful country full of romantic scenery.

“This garden started to grow after the last horde of monsters,” Saulo started talking, “Initially, I thought it was just accelerated growth because of the changes in the planet. After all, there were a lot of similar changes happening all over the world. But I was wrong; this garden has a higher and more concentrated density of Qi.”

“Yes, I can feel it.” Luan narrowed his eyes. He didn’t see anything extraordinary in the plants, not even the ones that were rare. In fact, they were all common flowers and plants, but somehow they were experiencing a special rate of growth.

“This is not so abnormal,” Lenore said with a neutral expression, “Mutation upon being exposed to Qi is common, especially in this location that has more Qi than normal. I assume that father did a formation here too, yes?”

“Exactly,” Luan smiled, glad his daughter was so smart.

“Then that’s it.” Saulo, who didn’t understand much about this subject, felt the explanation was simple enough for him to understand.

After observing the garden and talking for a while…

“Did you three eat?” Saulo asked, “Why don’t you three stay for lunch?”

“Yes, but before that, there’s something I want to show you.”

Without warning, Luan made clouds appear just below them, then the clouds began to take flight. As an experienced man, Saulo knew something was up and it didn’t seem to be simple. Saulo’s security guards were startled, but when they saw Luan, they knew President Saulo’s security was safe.

Before long, the four reached Ilha Grande. Ingrid’s curiosity was piqued. She got a little worried and looked at Luan. Opening her mouth, she soon fell silent. Luan didn’t show the slightest hint of concern. Lenore had confirmed the island’s defense before. Even though she wasn’t an expert in this matter, she knew that even someone in the Fifth Order would be able to break the defense.

On the horizon, it was possible to see a ship floating from the south towards the island.
