The Most Satisfied Reincarnate

Bastian and Leona did not respond immediately to Weston's question, but their eyes showed that they were cautious. Looking at their expression, Weston shook his head, then chanted a spell; the view turned grey, once again obstructing the way out.

Bastian and Leona were shocked. They immediately chanted a spell, preparing for the worst scenario. Leona's Ice Spear began floating around her body, but the size was not as big as before, while Bastian's sword was enveloped in flames, flickering every second.

The two had been exhausted after the battle, but they could use their skill to at least protect their child and stall for time.

"Relax...no need to panic, it's just a precaution against spying. Now you can speak freely, trust me." Weston created five seats and one table using earth as material.

Seeing that they were still doubtful, Weston then sat at one of the chairs. "Come sit, No poison, no trap, we can talk."

Bastian stepped forward and took a seat, glancing at his wife while nodding.

…

After they'd all sat down, Bastian glanced again at his wife. Leona just shook her head while giving him a hand sign, which means 'Ok.'

*ehm*

"Hello, Grandmaster, sorry for keeping you waiting. My name is Bastian, and this is my wife, Leona. We are merchant..."

"Cut the crap. I know you are not just a mere merchant when I saw your injury and that woman spell."

Stretching his head, Bastian felt awkward. "I see, okay, I'll be honest with you. I'm honestly a merchant while my wife is a former noble from the Imperial Empire."

Weston widened his eyes when he saw Bastian could keep lying. "Do you think I am a fool? With such bad acting, there's no way you are a merchant," he said while glancing at Leona's figure.

"Then what are former nobles doing here? Why are you bringing trouble to this peaceful kingdom?" Before, Weston's expression had been relaxed, but now he was very serious, with anger in his eyes.

When she saw her husband acting, Leona was also surprised. Since when have I had a clown in my family? She thought. But after she felt the anger seeping from Weston, she said, "We are sorry for bringing the assassin to your kingdom; we are tired of running and want to stay in one place."

Ah, so that is it.

I'm right about my mother; she was noble.

And my mother was carrying a secret. This is the power; the weak can only obey and ask for mercy while the strong can manipulate the situation.

Unconsciously, Desmond stared coldly at Weston. Noticing this, Weston glanced at him with a smile. Weston's eyes began to spark.

  "Good, you chose a great place; you can serve in the army for this kingdom.

The conflict between the North Empire and the Imperial Empire happened five years ago. So this incident is just a warning to us that my estimation is correct.

The Imperial Empire is planning something big. No need to be afraid, I will protect you if you want to become citizens of the North Empire, and I will not ask why the Imperial Empire is targeting you," Weston said in a severe tone.

Why is he so adamant about protecting my family? After all, we are just outsiders who just came to this kingdom, as I know.

Requesting to become a citizen from an unknown region is easy, but getting approval is a bit harder. After all, you need several days to process the documents. But it must be said that Weston's offer, along with the benefit of joining the army, is generous.

"Sorry to be presumptuous, but can I ask why the master wants to protect our family so much, even though we just arrived at the North Empire?" Bastian asked politely but failed to hide the killing intent in his eyes.

Desmond noticed that Weston had paused for a moment before closing his eyes. Standing up, he said, "To be honest, we lack combat troops. Then I heard a Master Wizard had appeared; I knew this could be a huge problem. Not only that, but the Master Wizard is usually an important person, so we also can decrease the Imperial Empire's combat troops.

I must step forward because we don't have many Master Wizards nor dual-class stationed everywhere then; when I saw that you guys are a Dual-Class and Master Witch pair, I tried my luck to recruit you just like this.

I know family is the weakness for every person, which is why I must value that. Maybe if you are not dual-class or a master witch, I'll just let you free and without offering."

The mother's rank will be higher than the father's.

From the conversation I heard, my family often moves places to take shelter. It's a very tempting offer, but it turns out that my mother's secret is more troublesome than I thought.

Glancing at each other, my parents nodded. "We will accept your offer, master, but we have one request."

"State the request," Weston said happily.

"We want our background to be kept secret and our children to enter the North Academy."

"We want our children to protect themselves and live happily," Leona supported.

"Easy thing, I will be happy to help young talent become an asset in this kingdom. Just hold my hand and you will automatically become residents of the Northern Kingdom using my authority."

Bastian and Leona agreed by shaking his hand. Suddenly, a blue light surrounded all of Desmond's family in a moment, then faded out.

"Welcome to the North Kingdom; I'll send one of my subordinates tomorrow to give you a brief explanation." Usually, Weston was unwilling to do such a small thing because he succeeded in recruiting great talent; Weston's mood was very good.

"Thank you. Master, may we be excused." Bastian spoke with a tired tone.

"Yeah, after all, you guys just got out of an attack," Weston answered with a smile on his face.

-In Ship Dining Room-

"After three years of touring, we can finally settle down. Ah, this is a relief," Leona spoke, her tone filled with relief.

"Mommy, are we going to stay here?" Alice suddenly asked.

"Yes, my love, do you not like it? If it's not safe, we can still move to the South Empire," Leona answered with a smile on her face.

"No, I like this city. It is so beautiful. I see many pets around here," Alice answered with an excited expression.

It looks like my quiet life will start from here. Let's be prepared if things go bad.

System, look for the fastest way to increase my strength in a short time.

[

System Conclusion: If the host wants to be strong quickly, it is suggested to kill a monster from beasts. It will be added to your combat experience and monster energy if possible.

]

Huh...so what use does monster energy have for humans?

Currently, monster energy is of no use for humans. Still, the system can convert 1.00 monster energy to 0.10 unique energy if the host wants.

Ah, that is very useful for me, but for now, what should I do?

[System Conclusion: Host needs to keep meditating.]

[....]

Any other way?

[System Conclusion: No.]

[....]

Alright, now I have to wait for the time to pass. It's so troublesome in this baby form.

-In the Imperial Empire palace, the residence of the king-

The minister was delighted when he found out about Leona's location because the plan he had prepared three years ago was finally being carried out. He waited until he heard that the assassin who was in charge had failed to kill Leona.

"Hahaha. It doesn't matter how many lives are lost; I will get that secret. Butler, relay my message and send more assassins to torture and kill her after you get the information."

On hearing this, the butler, who was always standing beside the minister, clapped his hands, and many assassins appeared simultaneously in the throne room.

"Yes, my king!" All the assassins answered in unison and then disappeared.

"Hahahaha.... soon, it will become mine, haha."
