Chapter 310 - Harriet Hunt

The greyish clouds filled the sky, preventing the sunlight from coming through like border guards. The foliage slowly danced with the howling wind. The gloomy sky warned the ground about the upcoming heavy rain through drizzles. While the drizzles were slowly transforming into a heavy downpour, Ethan came to the garden where he saw his beloved wife sitting on the bench holding the newspaper.

He was holding the same newspaper as his wife. In her sorrow, Diana didn't even notice Ethan sitting beside her.

"First edition eh?

" Ethan tried to open with a joke.

"It's not your fault, Diana

" Ethan wrapped his arm around Diana's shoulder.

"I lost him because I was weak. Wasn't that my fault?

"

"You weren't weak, the sky hall was too powerful. You know that, everybody knows that. You had no choice. If anyone to be blamed, it's Skyhall

"

"Our son stole bread because he was hungry

" she completely broke into tears after speaking those words. Diana couldn't even imagine what he went through. The overwhelming sadness made her heart bleed. As a man, Ethan wouldn't cry like Diana yet even his eyes teared up when he read that.

"We'll get through this Diana, like always, together. I promise you, we will reunite with our son

" He wiped off the tears from Diana's face while lifting her face to look her in the eyes

"You can now cultivate without Skyhall knowing. No matter how long it'll take, we must reach the immortal stage. Then we'll have a lifetime making up to our son

"

Ethan had full confidence in Diana reaching the Immortal stage because she was the number one prodigy of the entire world. It only took her a month of cultivation to go from the Core Formation stage to the Core Strengthening stage. Her monstrous cultivation speed was what drew the attention of Skyhall in the first place. She was meant to be the Holy Maiden.

Even to this day, the name Harriet Hunt would shake the Awor Continent. Before he heard everything that happened with Sky Hall, he thought only he and Diana's two sisters knew that Harriet Hunt is Diana. Ethan had to fake the three sisters' death to leave Awor continent. If anyone knew she's still alive, it would be only a matter of days before the royal family as well as the Hunt family storm into Elon to take her away.

As far as Diana was concerned, her talent was more of a curse than a blessing. She lost too much because of her talent. To the outside world, Diana was happy for her childrens' talent except she was more worried about them than feeling happy for them. She didn't want her children to suffer the same fate she does because of their talent.

Diana never regretted leaving everything behind in Awor. If she hadn't left her family, her two sisters would have been married off to some wealthy old men while she would have ended up as the Holy Maiden. Diana's parents viewed the three of them as trophies instead of as their daughters. They wanted to use them to increase the Hunt family's influence and power.

Because of her decision to leave Awor with her sisters, they were blessed with peace and a happy family. She never imagined the price for leaving her life on Awor behind would be her son.

"One day he will understand everything Dian

" the heavy downpour came with a thunderclap. Flashes of lightning flashed across their eyes. With the climate, Diana's mood also changed.

"Sky Hall

" The veins in her eyes began to pop up, making her eyes redder and redder.

"You know Ethan, I was trying to run away from being Harriet Hunt

" she stood up from the bench,

"I can't run away from who I am

" for a second when the lightning flashed, Ethan could swear he saw Harriet Hunt, the raven beauty of Awor. In his mind, her golden hair transformed into raven black while two swords appeared in her hands.

Raven black hair, two swords, black dress from top to bottom, that was the Harriet the entire Awor continent was afraid of. If Ethan had seen Ghost, he would have been startled to see the similarities between Harriet and Ghost.

"I'm gonna make every single one of them who hurt my son pay. I am Hunt, Harriet Hunt and I have a score to settle

"

***********************************************

Meanwhile back on the Abyssal, Michael was standing in front of a giant mirror. He was in his grey sweatpants staring at his naker upper body in the mirror.

Various degrees of burn wounds, bullet wounds, and scars riddled his body. Three days ago when he woke up, the scars he had when he was on earth as well as new scars magically appeared on his body. The system asked him to upgrade it if he wanted to know how and why the scars appeared.

Those scars brought some bad memories. Moreover, Michael wondered why these scars suddenly appeared. He didn't know the Ghost soul piece and Abras soul piece are slowly merging together into one as they were when he was born in this world. With the soul pieces merging, they brought the scars back. This change was visible to his eyes. What wasn't visible is that his mind and heart becoming one entity instead of two which were Ghost and Abras.

Until now, he thought he and Abras were two different people. The truth was however, they were the same. Only because of Sky Hall, his soul was split into two, one piece ended up on earth and grew up to be Ghost while the other grew up to be Abras. Fate had brought the two pieces together once again.

As he was staring at his body with mixed emotions, Gaya was whistling her favorite music while counting the gold coins they got from the restaurant. Nightmare was helping her by counting the stacks with her. Vedora just stood on Gaya's shoulder, supervising the two of them.

"Hey, do you want to know the total collection or keep staring at your own body?

" Michael put on his T-shirt before jumping into the bed with Gaya.

"Hit me with it

"

"Good, you're back

" She pinched his cheek playfully

"Well, we earned a whopping amount of 1.2million in three days. Because of your **ing generosity, we need to give 20% of the earning to the sect so they could develop the river town. That would leave us with 960,000 gold coins

"

"What about the cost of buying the ingredients and paying the wages?

" He wiggled himself from the pillow to Gaya's lap. She didn't mind as she would sometimes rest on his lap and he would do the same.

"I'm coming to that. Approximately we're spending 60,000 on both of them per month, so it's no biggie

"

"No biggie? You know how many people we could feed or help with 60,000 gold coins

" Nightmare rolled his eyes

"Quit whining you big lizard. We're swimming in millions of gold. Compared to that, 60,000 is like a drop

" Ayag retorted.

"You're a bad influence on the little girl

" Michael twisted Gaya's ear looking at Ayag.

"Who are you calling a little girl? I'll ** you up

" Ayag bore her teeth after being called a little girl by Michael.

"She's a bad apple, I know that

" Gaya chuckled instead of defending Ayag to make the little hydra even more furious.

"Hehehe bad apple

" Sarba, the silver head, chuckled with the rest of them as Ayag began to hit him in the head.

"Jokes aside, we need to cut the cost of buying the ingredients. When are they gonna start cultivating the fertile lands around the river town? If we could produce what we need in the river town, it'll save us the gold coins of buying them from the other towns and kingdoms while improving the economy of the river town

" Michael asked. He let Gaya and Claire handle these kinds of things as they had more knowledge and experience compared to him.

"Old man Reiner will take care of cultivating the lands so we could start producing veggies and stuff. We can improve the fishery by getting the fishermen new boats, building new docks. That still leaves us with exotic meat and seafood. There's no way we can get them in the river town. Reginald said he will introduce some of the contacts we could use to get these things for a cheaper price. I'm thinking about letting Raylene and Gloria handle the negotiation. After all, Gloria is the manager and Raylene should come out of her shell

"

"I agree with that. Raylene is still too timid

" Nightmare agreed with Gaya's plan.

"You're right, let them handle it

"

"It's settled then

" Gaya laid back on the bed with Michael. She rested her head on his hand as Nightmare and Vedora curled between them.

"I was talking to Raylene the other day, she said there are a lot of things to be done before the marriage

"

"Oooh, I'm listening

" Michael winked at her,

"Kids here you perverted bastard

" she quickly tried to cover Nightmare and Vedora's ears but she neither had enough hands nor time to cover their ears before they heard and realized the hidden meaning behind Michael's words.

"Lord Lucifer

" their playtime was interrupted suddenly by Aria. They heard her voice in their ears through the earbud.

"Go ahead Aria. Did you find anything?

"

"Lord Lucifer, Dark Queen, I'm at the harbormaster's office. The container I told you about, belongs to the Guardian guild. They are going to load the container into a ship

"

"Do you think the girls are inside?

" Gaya asked.

"I'm not sure but something's precious inside as the container is guarded by men in full plate armor. By the looks of them, they must be very powerful. Plus, they are doing constant routine checks, timed guard changes

"

"Do you know where the container is going?

"

"No Dark queen, no mention about where it is going in the manifest

"

"Don't engage them, we are coming

" Michael jumped off from the bed with Gaya. In a blink of an eye, they both transformed into Lucifer and Dark Queen.

"Let's go hunt

"
