Dawn Of Legend:Rise Of An Extra-Chapter 249 :In Exchange Of Cure

Lucas conversed with Julian freely, unaware of the two states scrutinising him from head to toe from the secret beside the wind.

"So, father, this is our brother in-." A man with silver hair spoke in a lethargic tone while rubbing his eyes and shut his lips feeling a dense killing intent choking him.

"Ellen, fuck you!" Kevin roared, almost scaring the shit out of his third son.

"Father, I am your child. You can't kill me."

"It would be good if you die. The world would have at least one less burden to carry." Kevin spoke angrily and his voice was filled with envy and jealousy.

If one asked who Kevin was, who he hated the most in this world. Then he would answer without any hesitation that he hated Ellen the most and always wanted to beat him.

And the reason behind this was not something complex.

His third son Ellen had been living the life that he always wished to live. Carefree with no worries and playing around all day to his heart's content.

Ellen's mother was Kevin's maid and childhood friend. Though she didn't have a prominent background, working under him, she had a vast connection to use if Ellen fought for the throne but this bastard had always managed to get out of his grasp and would disappear during important times.

"If only my father had another son, I wouldn't have hit my head taking care of an Empire filled with fools." Kevin cursed as he always felt that the Empire was a shackle around his neck.

"Father, can you stop cursing me to death with your eyes? Lazing around is an art that you don't have so just do what you are good at.'' Ellen muttered nonchalantly patting Kevin's shoulder but retracted his hands noticing his glare.

"Cough..So, I was talking about ...'

"Why the hell are you calling that asshole brother-in-law?" Kevin's face became red in anger, feeling that Ellen was rubbing salt on his wound.

"Huh?!" Ellen scratches his head acting confused and asks.

"Didn't you and Uncle Leonard have talked about this engagement? I heard about this when I was playing around."

Kevin facepalmed trying to contain his urge to slap.

"What we talked about was if Leonard had a daughter, I would make one of my sons marry her daughter and if possible she would become the Empress and it's not the other way around."

"Oh." Ellen made an understanding look.

"But what's the problem with Julian being with him if she really wished it?"

Kevin's expression darkened hearing Ellen's words. He couldn't even imagine his cute loving doll laughing for an outsider.

Hearing no reply from Kevin, Ellen continued.

"If my analysis is correct. There is a 99.99% chance that he is going to be the one. I know my sister very well. Except for the family, she had never dared to be close with any male. Though she didn't have the so-called disease she almost hated men to the core unless they were a bit decent." Ellen then pointed at Julian and spoke with a smile.

"And old man, do you see that look in her eyes? I can tell you that she seems to be conflicted about her own emotions and feelings at the moment. Her mind seems to be in a mess due to those unknown emotions...."

CLUNG!

All the hair on Ellen's body stood erect as he heard a scratching sound and turning his head, he was taken aback to see Kevin pulling out his sword.

"Why are unsheathing this sword?''

"To shove it in your ass so that you don't talk anymore." Kevin answered calmly, however, his eyes were saying something else.

The more Ellen described Julian's expression gracefully, the more his heart burnt. If Lucas wasn't Leonard's son, he would have hacked that piece of shit and wiped him off the world.

But he can do nothing now except feel sour with anger that he wanted to vent. 𝘧𝘳ℯℯ𝓌ℯ𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

.......

"There is also some other information beside this." Lucas pointed out in a diary and placed it on the table nearby with a blank expression.

"What's in that?" Julian asked curiously.

"Aside from the way to treat your condition, this contains information that might come in handy."Lucas cast a gentle smile

Julian's eyes shone with astonishment, her lips opening wide, almost asking how. However, she managed to stop her impulsive behaviour and a sudden thought came into her mind.

'Were all of those memories true? Did he regress? Otherwise, there is no way he could find the cure.'

The dream from which she woke up wasn't a simple one. She saw many crucial events which might or might not be true.

However, till the end of her life she didn't know a way to cure her curse.

Julian's eyes became complicated. She wanted to ask but she felt a lump stuck in her throat.

Swallowing her saliva, she asked, "What do you want in exchange?"

"Permission to move The Secret Order."

"You even know about that." Julian blinked her eyes though this time she wasn't shocked.

'Was there anything he didn't know? But according to my dream, I didn't create any secret order and was struggling to even live due to a curse. All of the things in this life are quite different to the point that this doesn't make sense.'

The more Julian thought, the more messy it became. On top of that, she felt a bit sour seeing Lucas exchanging favour for this when she could permit him if he just asked with a valid reason.

Julian bit her lips at the thought.

'Something is wrong with me. These unknown emotions are affecting my thought process. I was already bad at handling my emotions and it had become worse due to all these bullshit events.'

Julian peeked at Lucas subtly but seeing that blank stoic look, she felt frustrated.

She did not know why but she expected something else, maybe some sweet words but from the moment she woke up, he had maintained a clear firm distance and hadn't even asked about her current state.

He seemed to be on guard around her and treated her more coldly than before.

On the other hand, though Lucas was acting stoic his heart was beating wildly seeing Julian's displeased expression like that of a wife asking for her husband to calm her down.

'Damn! What's with that look?'

At that moment, Julian's expression was like an open book. There was neither any mask on her expression nor was she making an effort to hide it.

'I think she might have seen some things of the future as Future Lucas's interference in the world flow might have brought an undesirable effect which he warned me about.'

After a brief pause, Julian also calmed down a bit. She felt that she needed some peace of mind because this guy's presence was stirring her thought processes.

Taking a deep breath, she spoke.

"Okay! I will permit you if what's in this diary is worth it. So, let me first take a look and think about this."

Lucas nodded seeing Julian calming down.

After a brief pause, Lucas stood up abruptly and turned around.

"Your Hi...I mean the president, have a rest and please take care of yourself. I hope you will be fine."

Lucas walks back pausing a little.

'I hope that you can soar this time without anything dragging you and I will try to make sure that happens.'

CLICK!

Julian stared blankly as Lucas receded feeling a bit lost.

'Haaa…..I need to sort out my mind and feelings. I shouldn't be influenced by those memories. If I want to fall for him, I need to fall for the current him, not for the things that happen in future otherwise it would be an injustice to him. However, even before I came to know all this I couldn't refute the fact that every male I came across, I liked quite a bit but this guy always avoided the topic.'

'In that sense, his current and future selves are the same, not wanting to put down their ego.'

Julian pouted with a sour expression and was about to get up when a figure appeared before her, startling her.
