"!!!" Both Aisha and Gerald looked at Clovis in shock. This theory might be correct. Although it was just a clue, this was enough to show that there was a way to go out.
Essentially, it proved what his grandfather was searching for existed the whole ti.
Clovis thought for a mont. "Well, there’s no way to prove it right now. In the end, this is just a gene. Even if I ask Mara right now, there’s no telling if she knows about it or not. Even if she knows it, do you think she will tell about it?"
"Fair enough." Aisha nodded in understanding.
Clovis raised one finger. "Still, it doesn’t add up. This is only about my unique abilities, so why would it require all of you to leave alone?"
Aisha let out a long sigh. "Previously, we were considering whether I should be with you or not. After all, I could take care of you to a certain extent. However, due to my reputation, it was best if I left as well.
"The reason was fairly simple. If we were with you, our enemies could track our location and find how far we were from you. This would allow them to make a move depending on the distance between us.
"On the other hand, if we remained hidden..." Aisha stopped, letting Clovis continue.
"Ah!" Clovis nodded in understanding. "It would create an illusion you were with . In this way, anyone that wanted to harm should just send lower-level grunts to sohow kill .
"If they sent soone with powerful strength, you might suddenly appear and kill that person, which was basically a huge loss for them.
"The sa applied to Grandfather. If a Tier 9 human ca, Grandfather would suddenly appear and launch an attack, which would definitely result in a catastrophe.
"To avoid this kind of attack, you remained hidden and forced the enemies to send people who were too low for your intervention. After all, they could also send this force to distract you and launch another ambush with their high-ranking people."
"Correct." Aisha smiled. "If it was too high, we could assu they were the main attack. If it was the sa level, we had no choice but to assu they were bait.
"Of course, I’m sure you have figured out why eting us would need to wait until you were a Tier 5 human... Albeit, this ti, the situation went out of control and we had no choice but to et prematurely."
Clovis nodded in understanding. "Yes. If it’s just Tier 0 to Tier 4 humans, they were so weak that both of you could kill them in one shot no matter how many of them ca.
"However, if they sent dozens of Tier 5 or even higher, both of you would need so preparations to handle it.
"This also reflected on my strength. With my group getting this powerful, it would be hard for them to eliminate us. In other words, staying together wouldn’t be much of a problem anymore because we weren’t that hard to kill anymore."
"Indeed. As expected of my baby, you’re so smart." Aisha hugged him while rubbing her cheek against his.
Clovis smiled wryly. "Does that an we will be living together from now on?"
Gerald was the one replying this ti. "That question should be answered by you."
"!!!" Clovis was surprised. Gerald ant if Clovis wanted them to stay together, they would respect his choice and stay here. However, it would cause a certain problem.
In the first place, he had reached this level without relying too much on them. So, it didn’t matter if they were going to stay together or not.
However, if they didn’t stay together, his parents could assu their roles again, protecting him from the shadow until he reached Tier 6 or even Tier 7.
Only after reaching Tier 7 would they be able to stay with him without fearing anything.
On the other hand, if they stayed together right away, the enemies would do everything they could to eliminate them.
And there was also one thing he had to put into the equation. It was the fact he would be training with Mara.
Even if he agreed, they wouldn’t et each other for quite a while.
Clovis paused for a mont. "Can I ask two questions before giving an answer?"
"Sure. Mommy will answer everything you ask." Aisha nodded happily.
"Who is our enemy? The one who forced us to live like this?"
"This..." Aisha hesitated and glanced at Gerald. Gerald was also not sure, but he ultimately nodded his head.
Aisha finally answered, "Prophet."
"Prophet? The third on the top list? Why would soone like him target us?"
"We don’t know either. According to your grandfather, there wasn’t supposed to be an enmity between them, but the prophet launched a sneak attack on him, which caused him to be injured. The ti he was with us was the ti he was lying low due to his injury."
"..." Clovis closed his eyes. It didn’t look like he could get the reason today. So, he just took a note in his heart and continued, "In that case, my second question is... Are you lonely?"
"!!!" Gerald and Aisha instinctively understood what this question ant. Clovis was simply showing his care and wanted to know how they felt.
"Mommy is touched! Let hug you a bit longer."
Gerald smiled, feeling moved. "We’ll respect your decision. We have let you suffer all these years. Even if you hate us, we won’t complain."
"How could I hate you?" Clovis shook his head. "I guess I’m too weak to have a complete family now. However, I promise that I won’t be a burden soon. Even if you don’t live with , I will prepare a villa where we can live together from ti to ti.
"It’s just... Right now, I have to leave my group for a while. I’m sorry for being a useless son and ask for your help again."
Gerald nodded in understanding. "Don’t worry. We’ll help your group to a certain extent and make sure they remain focused on increasing their strength."
