- May 29, Saturday afternoon – Brazil, Big Island -
After enough and rest a lot; that's exactly what Ingrid and Luan did, and when they woke up they were all making as little noise as possible until they saw the couple come down from the second floor.
The mansion that was built on the island was big, even the living room. Catharina, Cristina, and the rest were with many children around watching cartoons on the 100-inch television.
Now that the worst was over, they were just waiting for Luan to send everyone back, as he was more practical with his skill.
It was raining outside, or rather outside the island, as the clouds around the island were under Luan's control. For many of the Elite Squad family members it was a unique sight they wanted to enjoy, especially a small hill made up of small monster cores; just getting close they felt a terrible feeling.
Let's be honest, no one is a saint, some thought and took some of these monster cores, as they knew they were expensive, however, Pooh and Zeus were too scary and were close and kept an eye on everyone who tried to get close.
The thought of stealing was gone as quickly as it came. Only the greed that took over them, but they gave up when they knew they would put their lives at risk.
'There are so many, why does it have to be so petty?' Those who tried to steal think as they walk away in fear.
When Luan appeared with Ingrid, they jumped in fright, as Luan's red eyes passed them, it was as if he could read her thoughts and see her soul. They felt naked in front of him, with everything exposed for him to look at. With a cold look, he just stared, but that was enough to make them shiver with fear.
However, Luan was not unreasonable, they were relatives of his subordinates, they 'just' tried to steal something from him, although if it was anyone else, it could be intolerable, he let it pass through merits won by the Elite Squad who were loyal to him.
"I will be sending you all back to your homes." Luan's voice was cold. It wasn't fast or slow, but it was extremely overwhelming.
They came back to their senses and nodded unconsciously, the coldness around Luan passing as he felt the grip on his hand and saw Ingrid smile at him. "They are part of the family of their subordinates."
The girl's voice was soft and it sounded like it was covered in a layer of honey; sweet and sticky.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was flirtatious and kind.
"I know." Luan sighed and eased all the pressure he put on them.
"Let's go get our kids." Seeing his coolness lessened, they sighed, not that they're silly, they saw some of them try to steal but didn't say anything.
Glancing gratefully at Ingrid, they entered the castle-like mansion and picked up their children.
Luan created clouds and sent them all to where he got them before. Although he is indifferent to those who are strangers to him, he still made a point of being especially careful with the relatives who are his subordinates. Even the employees of Dimas Corporation had help from Luan, although he didn't bring them to the island, he saved a lot of them using Cloud Origin and Spiritual Trees,
This made the Elite Squad's conviction that they chose the right person to follow. Mainly some who noticed the actions of their family members. Though afraid to mention it here, they intended to reprimand them later for their actions.
Luan's attention was directed to the Elite Squad. He said with a neutral expression: "All of you tried hard, spend 5 days here on the island, I will teach you 4 different techniques now that you already have the power of the Third Order. And you Elijah, make the effort and get to the Fourth Order, you can't have a weak leader, you know that yes?"
"Yes," Elias said with a goofy smile, "I'm already close to clearing and connecting all the meridian veins."
"I know." Luan scoffed and said, "I didn't ask about your current status, I told you to make an effort, understand?"
"Of course, I'm trying hard!" Elijah patted his chest in understanding.
"Mm. I'm leaving, I'm going to talk to the giants. I'll let them into the tower too." Luan told them and left with Ingrid.
"He didn't even wait, and he left so quickly…" Elias sighed and looked seriously at the Elite Troop: "Okay, let's get back to training. We still have to improve our coordination with the Origin of each one."
Elias finished speaking and looked especially at Arlinda, her Origin is by far the strangest and most life-saving. She could predict disasters and other things, if this is well trained, she will be indispensable support... In fact, she has already become someone indispensable in the group, and despite being very rich nowadays, she was not arrogant and liked simple things, she even started dating Bruno Campos with an interest in getting married.
So Arlinda was following them to the tower with her daughter. Because she could finally let her daughter have some fatherly love. Although Bruno Campos is a little childish for his age, 25 years old and a little younger than her, they liked each other, and that was what mattered to her. She finally got to be with someone she liked...
Leaving aside everything they had, be it worries or even insecurity; the Tropa de Elite group returned to training.

"Little friend Luan." The giants were happy when they saw him arrive and saw Ingrid beside him, and added: "I brought your little wife this time, she is beautiful." They smiled.
"Thanks." Ingrid smiled graciously at them. As it was floating on the cloud, they were looking directly into their faces.
"Haha! No need to thank, we're all sincere, we don't say things we don't think." Ryu laughed out loud. They are like that, sincere and hated lies, that's why they said what they felt and they are often hated because of it, but they don't care, they prefer to be hated than being liars.
"Little friend Luan, you surprised everyone again." Athena giggled, which was rather high-pitched but not unpleasant.
"I didn't do it alone, my girlfriend helped." Luan wouldn't take all the credit. It was more because of Ingrid that it ended so quickly.
"Oh, so she's amazing too, as expected from little friend Luan's wife." They laughed and continued to call his wife instead of his girlfriend.
Well, Luan didn't seem to mind, and Ingrid was particularly happy, although if she were to get married, she still wanted to have at least one small ceremony. She was a woman and dreamed of wearing a wedding dress.
Ingrid looked out of the corners of her eyes and saw him smile at her. Her heart can't take it. Why was she so affected even now?
Ingrid took a deep breath and calmed down.
The giants laughed at the couple's interaction.
Soon the conversation got down to business: "As I said, I can let you enter the tower and get stronger, as well as help protect your territory with an illusory formation that will be able to hide even from living beings in the Fourth Order. All I ask is that you use your strength to protect my relatives in the tower."
"Mm, your terms are good, and following your mom's lead doesn't look bad. She's the woman who drove a fighter jet, yes?" The smartest of giants, Ariel asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Yes, she is my mother and with her were my two sisters," Luan confirmed.
"Okay, I agree." Ariel was the decision maker, and after hearing the proposal, thinking, and rethinking it, he found it appropriate to accept.
"Haha, it's a shame we can't go with our little friend Luan and his wife, but leave it to us, we'll protect your family!" Ryu hit his chest hard and said with a big smile.
Luan smiled and said, "Okay, so I won't be stalling. I'm going to start training."
After that, Luan left Ingrid floating on the cloud alone and left with another one, he surrounded the perimeter that was the territory of the giants and started scattering big stones of Qi and soon a formation started to be created, but he still cast 6 types of talisman different and 5 spells.
In total, it was enough to last 5 years. It was enough for them to get to the Fifth Order by then.
"Done." Luan has returned.
The humans that before tried to get closer, they couldn't even manage, it was as if they saw something that prevented them from continuing and went the other way.
Even if the giants didn't care, now humans couldn't randomly walk into the giants' territory.
"Very good!" Ariel praised a lot. He was very surprised, he could barely understand half of what Luan did.
"Now I'm going to send you to Ilha Grande as soon as I get there," Luan told them.
*
After visiting his grandfather, and seeing that Saulo was fine and the formation was still active, Luan returned to Ilha Grande with Ingrid.
The giants are already there.
"All ready?" Luan asked.
Now they would be divided into 2 groups, those led by Elias and those led by Maira.
Ingrid didn't go with them this time, she would go with Luan to the 50th floor. Now she was confident that she could follow him and not be a burden to him. She had the Strength of 8 dragons. Because of Dual Cultivation and the blood, she refined from monsters with Luan's help.
Luan on the other hand had the strength of 9 dragons. He only managed to get one step ahead of Ingrid because of her technique, if not, he could have been surpassed by her.
