"Hah... To think that my grandfather would call me back to the house. He must be planning to reprimand me because I did something reckless." Hana let out a long sigh while taking off her robe.
"Miss. Your grandfather is waiting for you in the dining room." The butler extended his hand, urging him to go.
"Yeah." Hana nodded nonchalantly, completely missing the slight change in the butler's tone.
Since her grandfather had been waiting for her, it would be bad if she let him wait for too long. She hurried to the dining room, which was guarded by another old butler. His strength was the same as her own personal butler.
"Mhmm? Raka, you're here? Not inside?" Hana tilted her head in confusion. "You're my grandfather's personal butler, right? Aren't you supposed to serve him inside?"
"Welcome back, Miss. Please enter." The old butler didn't answer her not because he looked down on her but because there was no need to answer. After all, the moment he opened the door, Hana would get her answer.
Inside the dining room, the table seemed to have been changed from the usual long tables to a small table for only six people.
Her grandfather was sitting on one side, while another old man sat on the opposite side. To her surprise, her grandmother was the one pouring the tea for both when normally it was either the butler or the maid who would do it.
The old man had a rather thin frame, but it was brimming with youthful energy. More importantly, she noticed that the old man seemed to be muscular. The muscles weren't big but appeared very refined.
Seeing how her grandmother was the one serving them, it seemed that this old man was much more important than she thought.
Hence, Hana entered the room and walked gracefully to her grandfather. "Grandfather. I'm sorry for making you wait."
Michael stopped and sat back down before saying, "When you do something wrong, you should be punished. That's how I have been teaching my son and grandson. And I have administered the punishment. With this, I won't hold any grudges against you or blame you any further."
Hana obviously understood what he meant. She just never thought that Michael Hacfield would visit her family personally.
"Th-Thank you very much, Master Michael. I'd like to apologize for my reckless action." Hana's voice was still shaking, but she seemed to have regained a bit of her composure. She acknowledged that she was wrong after all.
"Well, because of you, the situation will become much more volatile after this." Michael looked at Hana before extending his hand. "Please take a seat first."
"Y-yes." Hana hurried to her grandfather's side and sat next to him.
"So, have you gotten anything from him?" Michael asked with a serious expression.
Hana's body tensed up, wondering if she should tell the truth or not. After all, this was a top secret. Then again, Clovis and Michael's relationship was extremely good, so she thought it would be alright.
"Yes." Hana nodded weakly.
Michael fell silent for a moment. "Is that so? Is it related to the Beast Soul?"
"!!!" Hana raised her eyebrows, surprised that Michael knew about it. Did he have the information already? Or was it his research?
"You don't have to think much about it. The ones conducting that research were my daughter-in-law and her student, so of course, I know about it." Michael glanced at Hana's grandfather. "Here is the deal, Jeremy Skylark."
He raised his head with a grim expression. "Yes?"
"Because of your granddaughter's reckless action, those people have begun to move. Hence, I'll distract them personally. In exchange, I want you to do two things for me." Michael raised two fingers. "It seems that my grandson has deemed your granddaughter to be worthy of an ally. I won't say anything about it, but please don't do anything reckless for the time being. And the second thing is..."
