After talking to Serafino, Kira decided to come back and check whether Marceline returned home for her grandfather. But to his dismay, the Zhou Ancestral Mansion was empty.

Even Grandpa Roland was no longer in the underground basement. But Marceline's scent still lingered around the house.

"Did she drop by?" Kira asked himself. He wondered where she hid Grandpa Roland. She couldn't bring him to Silvano's Villa because he became a vampire.

And the only person whom he could think of was Xyon. Among the people close to Marcelin, Xyon was the only person who knew the existence of other creatures.

He was the only person Marceline could trust when it came to her grandfather's welfare. But Xyon had to keep Grandpa Roland locked up in his casket, otherwise, Grandpa Roland might attack him and he would make him his food.

This was a dangerous and reckless move on Xyon's part. He couldn't control Grandpa Roland alone so Kira decided to ask Serafino to go with him. He just called him and they agreed to meet in front of Xyon's house. Kira gave Serafino Xyon's address.

After five minutes, Kira arrived at the entrance gate of Xyon's house. He used his vampiric speed to reach his home. He knew that Little Lowell was in Xyon's care as well. Marceline would definitely come to get Little Lowell.

Without ringing the doorbell of the gate, Kira jumped so high to enter Xyon's front yard. Upon reaching the door, he didn't bother to knock. He just pushed the door so hard and the door flew open.

Xyon, who had just finished locking the door of the underground basement where he hid Grandpa Roland, heard the ruckus in the entrance door.

When he went to check it, Kira's upright posture greeted his sight. Kira was staring at him with a serious expression on his face.

"Did Marceline come here?" He asked Xyon. His eyes roamed around, searching for her. But sad to say, he didn't smell Marceline's scent around the house. Even before Xyon could respond to him, he already knew the answer.



"Have you seen her in the mansion? Where is Lowell?" Kira's stern voice could send a chill down Xyon's spine. He looked cold and frightening tonight.

"Y-Yes... Lady Boss and I met a few hours ago. She took Lowell with her." Xyon answered him anxiously.

"Why did you take Grandpa Roland? What did she tell you?" Kira sounded like he was interrogating Xyon.

It did not take long before another person joined them. Serafino finally arrived. Xyon could tell from his aura that he was also a vampire.

'Damn! Am I in trouble? Why are they here?' Xyon's palm began to sweat from nervousness. He wondered if Kira and Serafino would hurt him or would try to take Grandpa Roland away since his Lady Boss was a werewolf. 'Are they fighting now? Is this the reason why Lady Boss is leaving Kira?'

"Answer me, Xyon." Kira's cold voice resounded in the entire house.

"Grandpa Toland should stay here as Lady Boss couldn't take care of him. That's what she said to me..." Xyon replied.

Serafino smiled seeing how frightened Xyon was while facing Kira. "My Lord, please don't scare him. He can't answer you properly if you are intimidating him." Serafino wanted Kira to calm down.

He could understand why Kira is being cold and grumpy tonight. He was just missing Marceline. He wanted to see her badly. It was his longing that was keeping him grumpy because he could no longer see her the way they used to be.

"Don't be scared. My Lord will not hurt you nor feed on your blood." Serafino joked around, trying to lighten the atmosphere. But unknown to him, his words sounded like a threat for Xyon.

"Kira... are you and Lady Boss fighting? Are you both breaking up?" Xyon asked him absentmindedly. He was nervous so he just said what came to mind.

However, his words made Kira's mood worse. He didn't like the word breaking up.

"Where did you get that? Is that what Marceline said to you?" Kira asked him through his gritted teeth, his eyes blazing with rage.

"No! NO! NO!" Xyon sensed danger so he took his words back. He waved his hands and shook his head frantically. "Lady Boss... didn't say those exact words. I just assumed it because..." Xyon stopped midway. He was contemplating whether to continue it or not.

"Because of what?" Kira felt annoyed when Xyon suddenly stopped.

Xyon bit his lower lip. He had to tell him the truth otherwise, Kira might use his mind ability against him. He would find out that Marceline indeed told him that Kira and she were no longer related to each other and she didn't want to hear Kira's name.

If Kira read it through his mind, who knows what he would do to Xyon? He was very jealous. To save his life from impending death, Xyon was forced to tell him the truth.

"Lady Boss said she is leaving Golden City..."





Kira's face darkened further upon hearing that, his brows knitting together in a deep frown. "Leaving? Where is she going?"

"To the Kingdom Phantasia... together with her real parents... her real family."

Crash!

Kira punched the wall next to him, creating a loud sound. Serafino and Xyon were stupefied when they saw Kira's boiling rage. He was mad!

"No Way! I can't let her go. I won't allow her to leave... with them..."

Without further ado, Kira turned around leaving Xyon's house. He left in a hurry. He moved as fast as the lightning speed. Serafino and Xyon were left in the house, just watching the blank space where Kira was standing a while ago.

The portion of Xyon's wall collapsed because of Kira's punch. "What should I do? Damn! Why did he have to destroy my poor wall!" Xyon complained, tugging his hair.

Serafino just let out a loud chuckle, tapping his back. "Be grateful that his punch hit the wall, not you."

Xyon's jaw dropped as he realized Serafino's point. He was right! If that punch hit him then he would die.
