274 Chapter 274

Before departing, Lucas' gang met in the bar to celebrate.

Lucas found it unbelievable that he had managed to survive his first year among this group of monkeys scratching one another.

CLANK!

The sound of glasses colliding with each other resounded.

Taking a large chug, Parth made a satisfied expression like that of someone in the middle of the desert that had found an oasis.

"Haaaaah!" Parth chuckled.

"This feels like heaven."

"Drunkard!" Lucas along with everyone sneered.

Parth just ignored them and spoke,"Brothers from other mothers, it feels great to be in your team."

"With people like you around, we will soon shake the world!" Parth shouted.

"You want to shake the world when you can't stop yourself from shaking," Charles smirked.

"Roan, don't listen to him. The young master is jealous of this almighty Parth who can bring down his reign."

"Blaahhh!"

"Why don't you claim that in the training ground tomorrow," Frederick spoke while staring at Parth.

Parth just averted his gaze and focused on drinking while asking Roan to buckle up for a drinking competition.

"Sorry, I just drink for fun, not for competition. And it's better to be accompanied by a girl rather than you." Roan answered indifferently, pushing Parth's shoulder aside.

"This nerd had grown some balls after getting into 3-Star. Roan, remember the wise words of this daddy. Big balls hurt more when hit."

"Just shut up," Roan closed his ears.

Lucas smiled seeing his friends bantering with each other.

His eyes swept around everyone present out there.

Seeing them, Lucas was sure about one thing, he had made some good friends.

Charles had changed his class from a villainous young master to a third or fourth male lead.

Roan had grown from being a nerd to a person giving scholarly vibes which were further supplemented by those two round glasses.

Although he may still look thin, underneath his clothes, his body has grown a lot.

His family pack had been upgraded to six pack and his muscles weren't bulky in any sense but with only a touch one can know that the scholarly mage doesn't fall back in hand-to-hand combat.

Combined with his long red hair reaching the shoulders, he looked quite handsome.

On the other hand, Frederick had stepped further ahead on the path of the protagonist by starting to open up to others.

Frederick might be stronger now however, Lucas wasn't much worried about it as he was a little short of buying a diamond-

grade bloodline.

Taking it would surely give him a boost.

And if one looks at Parth...

It's better to not talk about him and have a headache.

"Lucas, when are you leaving?" Frederick asked, seeing Lucas' dazed expression.

Fredrick's voice snapped him out of his thoughts.

"I am going to catch the train in the morning," Lucas answered.

"Your place is quite far from here. As far as I remember you have to take two trains and after that, you have to take a wagon or rely on your feet to reach your hometown." Charles spoke.

Lucas nodded and said,"Yeah, it will take almost a day or more. It depends on the wagon."

"By the way, Lucas, I got to know that the territory where you live is not under any noble house. It seems to be some sort of free land. Except for the Leonhart clan guarding the borders, the land is owner free." Frederick spoke.

Lucas raised his brows with a surprised expression.

"This is the first time I have heard such a thing."

"Maybe it's under the imperial's hands," Roan said to you.

"Maybe or maybe not. Land under the Imperial laws is demarcated but your hometown isn't." Frederick answered.

Lucas raised his brows, feeling that Frederick must know something.

"Let's leave that matter."

"We are here to enjoy not to discuss troublesome things," Lucas muttered and everyone resumed the joyous occasion.

...

The sound of a bustling train resounded, while gentle beads of snow kept pouring around.

After the drinking party where he barely drank any due to Parth making a mess out of the party, Lucas waited for the train but he wasn't alone.

Besides him stood Jeanette giving him a stern gaze.

Lucas sighed as he put down his phone after having a chat with his mother who seemed to be jumping in excitement.

"Can you stop that look? It's unsettling." Lucas said with a slight frustration,"People are looking at us as if I cheated on you."

"Not my problem as you were too busy to have a proper talk with me and only now arranged time for me just as you are about to leave."

Lucas stared at Jeanette's grievous expression.

"I have joined Skies as you said and would go to the Northeast after a few days but before that, I wanted to ask one thing."

Lucas met with Jeanette's fierce gazes burning with ferocity.

"David...Can I fulfill my revenge?"

"Do you even know where he is or what he is doing now?"

Lucas halted a moment before giving an answer,"Why did you follow me till now if you don't believe in me?"

"It's better to go with the flow than to be static. Though it was brief, I have grown a bit."

Lucas smiled and looked up at the sky,"As long as David is alive out there and you are strong enough to defeat him, you can have your revenge. The only thing is we have to find out where the bastard is hiding now."

"So, how do we find him out?" Jennette asked curiously.

"Situation..A situation would arise where Omen would be forced to come out. David may be in disguise or use a pseudonym but...."

Lucas pointed at his golden eyes glowing brightly.

"These eyes of mine can see through everything."

With his insight skills that can be used to see stats, he can indirectly see through disguise.

Jeanette didn't know from where the guy got this much confidence but his words along with his aura had a certain conviction.

'Let's just believe for now. It's not as if I have anything better to do. Maybe working with him will hone my skills and I can seek revenge on my own.'

Jeanette after a brief talk left allowing Lucas to finally breathe in relief.

But just as she left, Lucas felt a cold overbearing aura from behind. He didn't need to look back to know who the person was.

"Your Highness!"

"When in Academy you call me president and outside Princess or Highness, why can't you just call me by my name?"Julian's cold words echoed in his ear to which he didn't reply and kept smiling much to her frustration.

'Meeting with you is already risky. If I start calling you by name, my neck would go missing.'

An uncomfortable silence lingered as both of them looked at one another.

Julian then much to Lucas' surprise extended her hands and demanded,"Hold my hands!"

"Huhh!" Lucas tilted his head in confusion.

"Don't misunderstand. It's winter and my hands are cold. I forgot to wear gloves as I hurried on my way here." Julian spoke with a blank expression.

"Quickly hold my hands and warm me up."

"Ohhh!" Lucas' lips curled upwards. He wasn't that dense to know what she truly wanted.

Some things didnt needed to be spoken to understand and after staying her for almost 6 hours day and from bits of the future, he knew what she meant.

"I understand." Lucas nodded and held Julian's long slender hands. It was soft, delicate and bigger than him.

But much more than that...

'Holyshit! It's so cold!!'

Lucas started shivering as Julian's hands were cold...As cold as a frozen block of ice. Lucas felt as if her hands were sucking his body here.

Julian and Lucas walked by strolling the daily platform under the soft flakes of snow falling.

Both of their hands clasped to one another tightly and surprisingly neither of them felt uncomfortable.

Lucas saw that Julian's emotions were a bit unstable and she looked a bit sentimental.

"Today is a fine day," Lucas muttered looking at the sky.

Julian's lips twitched seeing him looking around instead of her.

As they passed by, Lucas noticed people looking at him weirdly again and when they passed beside a mother-son duo, the mother pulled her son aside and spoke.

"Did you see that guy? He is playing duality. A good man shouldn't do this and play with a young maiden's heart. Do you understand what I said?"

Lucas, who heard this, almost slipped.

At first Julian held her laughter, but as she heard more, she wasn't able to hold back and laughed aloud.

"It's not funny," Lucas grumbled, staring at Julian's dazzling smile.

"Your Highness, why did you take the trouble to come looking for..." Lucas' words paused as the train he waited for arrived interrupting the peaceful atmosphere.

Julian pulled out a ring and gave it to Lucas.

"What's this?" He asked curiously.Follow current s on novelenglish.net . ꜰɪre.ɴet

"It's vestige armour. Think of this as a gift for helping me."

After a brief staring exchange, Lucas nodded.

"Thank you!"

"Farewell Lucas," Julian spoke softly while waving her hand. There was a bit of sadness in her voice.

"You don't need to say that. We are going to meet soon." Lucas chuckled and hoarded the train.

Julian looked at Lucas and then with a sudden motion, held Lucas's collar, pulled it and kissed him on the cheek, shocking him.

Then she separated with a smile and the door of the compartment closed off and the train started to move.

Lucas just stood there frozen due to Julian's sneak attack after which he screamed.

"What the hell!"

"Was I just kissed?"
