The young man flew back home without any care of what was going on in the world. The whole thing was undetected, and only thing people came to find in the cargo ship was a pile of dead bodies, all the terrorists in the holding area had been shot in the heads. Another thing that caused the Eagle nation government to be shocked was how the assailants managed to walk in and out of the place. None of them could come up with any explanation for what happened in this place, after all, this was basically in the middle of nowhere.

...

It was dawn when the plane landed on the private airstrip of the Utopia Research Center, since it was a vertical landing, none of the people saw anything. Leo moved the plane inside the hangar, then he opened the cockpit and looked at Francis, who was standing on the ground with red eyes, he was showing typical signs of the sleep deprivation. Leo took a deep breath and replied, "Francis, you need to handle the leveler, the vertical landing just now scared me to hell."

Francis scratched the back of his head and then said, "Well, Sir, this is still a prototype and I am very happy that you made it back in one piece."

Leo shook his head and stood up from the seat and stepped out of the cockpit and said, "Have someone from the staff pick out the old man inside and give him medical attention. Also, increase the security parameters, none of the people are allowed to get out of the research center. Do you understand?"

Francis nodded and replied, "I will relay the message to Master Markus, also, Sir, they have sent a message. The raids have been conducted successfully, all the people involved in attacking Director Markus have been neutralized."

Leo sighed and nodded, as he said, "I am heading back home, have Markus come here and then handle this thing on his own."

Francis nodded silently, Leo had given in a lot of time, and he should not move around much now because many people would be looking at them all. Leo walked away, got on his bike and drove back to home. It took him a couple of hours to ride back from the high north to Angkor City.

After entering the house, he called Snow, thankfully she picked up the call herself, and asked, "Hurt anywhere?"

Leo shook his head and replied, "No, I am fine, any chatter?"

Snow nodded, "They are asking around but didn’t find anything. Thankfully both things happened at the same time, so they have too much to handle now."

The young man nodded, and asked, "How are the kids?"

Snow smiled and replied, "They are fine, Lily is a good baby-sitter, and she is a stern elder sister. I don’t have to mind that, at least these two would be disciplined in the future. You have no idea how much they babbled the whole morning, Ma called me twice to ask if it was normal."

Leo chuckled and said, "That is good, as long as they are happy. I will be back at night. I plan to catch some sleep before I leave."

Snow nodded and replied, "Eat something while you are at it."

Leo took a deep breath and talked with Snow asking how she was doing and the rest, before he sighed and closed his eyes and fell asleep. He was not sleeping because he was tired, it was because he was mentally tired, flying a plane seemed easy but he had to make sure that he didn’t run into any of the commercial flights, because the plane was still under development, and there was a chance that something could go wrong and so Leo was alert to handle the situation as soon as something went wrong.

...

Lily looked at the tab and said, "Baba came home safely."

Anastasia nodded while she watched the trio as they sat on the carpet in the living room. The old lady looked at Lily and asked, "How is your school going, I have been very busy these days."

Lily nodded calmly and replied, "Yes, I am doing good grandma, but I miss Teacher Verse, although the teacher in this school is nice, but Miss Verse was so much better."

Anastasia nodded with a smile and said, "You can go to meet her when you visit Angkor City, just focus on learning the things they teach you in the school."

Lily hummed and before she looked at the Jules and said, "Jules, you naughty boy, don’t you dare to paint Elle’s face."

Elle smiled at Lily and Lily smiled at her, Anastasia shook her head, the youngest and the eldest gang up on Julian, and the poor boy was on the verge of tears. However, Lily sensed this and then she said, "You are a smart baby, if you treat Elle well, she will also treat you well no? We must not harm others, and be nice, but if someone tries to harm you, don’t bother, do what you should, and big sister will help you, okay?"

She coaxed Julian and then guided the two people to paint on the sketch pad. The twins learned it all with great joy. After half an hour, they finished handling it all, and Lily praised them both and gave them fruit jelly as reward.

...

Dawn was shocked by this person’s arrival. He ignored the questions and analyzed the enemy. Since this guy had already attacked him, it meant he would not walk away uninjured. The only thing that he could do was fight.

The enemy before him had a pale complexion. His build was lean, and bones were apparent under the skin. Dawn thought of the reason behind his appearance and mumbled, "Necromancer."

His words surprised the person, and his icy blue pupils constricted for a blink. He asked in a hoarse voice, "This is your last chance. Tell me who you are."

Dawn stood up straight and said, "Who I am is not of your concern. However, I did not expect to meet a necromancer here. What is your name? Or have you forgotten everything under the influence of Yin?"

The necromancer did not say anything and just moved in to attack Dawn. The latter was not going to stand ideally. He moved back quickly and took the sharpened chopsticks from his sleeve. Dawn planned to use these as his weapons. He was weak, but he was not inexperienced about the enemy.

When he was in the heavens, Dawn had seen his fair share of battles, and Necromancers were the people he disliked the most. He focused on the enemy before him and avoided the attacks.

Strong necromancers’ nails were filled with cold corpse poison. Once infected, the poison rendered the victim useless and slowly gnawed away at their vitality. Dawn did not want to die a painful death so early. He dodged the attacks; in his eyes, the necromancer was not doing anything that required him to exert himself—just mindless grabs and scratching attacks.

It was like running away from a child chasing behind him quickly. Dawn was not in a hurry, and he was thankful for the open space he had for himself. If he were to meet this guy in a closed space, then given his present situation, he would not have been able to react. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

The necromancer growled like an animal and asked, "Do you only know how to run away? Were you not very arrogant just now?"

Dawn did not reply; he was thinking about how to kill this guy. There were only a few methods to take down a Necromancer. The most effective one was to trap the necromancer inside a yang energy formation. However, Dawn did not have any such material on him.

Se, he chooses the next best option. This option required him to get closer to the enemy and stab him with his chopsticks. The yin energy may give one explosive strength, but it also has drawbacks. The practitioner’s vitality would gradually weaken, and if they were not careful, then just a love tap would injure them. It was not until they had reached a higher level of strength that they became invulnerable to physical attacks.

Dawn could figure that this guy was still in the initial stages, probably because he did not know how to harvest the energy efficiently. Deciding on what to do, Dawn took a deep breath, controlled the Yang energy in the void, and covered the tip of his chopstick with it as he moved close to the enemy.

The necromancer smiled with a maniacal gaze. He thought his words had provoked his prey, and now he could kill Dawn. However, his assumptions were proved wrong. Just as the Necromancer leaned in to claw at Dawn, the latter suddenly stopped and took a side step.

The necromancer was surprised but woke up from a strong pain in his abdomen the next moment. He looked down and found a pair of chopsticks stabbed in his body. He grimaced and reached out to pull them out, but he froze and wailed.
