The knight walked a few steps in front of Zick, catching the reign of the horse from one hand, leading it to walk beside him.

They reached the entrance of the estate in a few minutes, where two knights stood besides the gate like guards.

The knight who was leading Zick here walked forward and ordered the guard knights to open the gate.

Opening the gate, both of the knights bowed their heads, One of them had a surprised look on his face after seeing Zick. This knight was present in the knight\'s training ground when Zick had started training a few years ago.

Zick looked at the estate that he hadn\'t seen from a long time with still a expressionless face, Nostalgia rose within him.

\'It hasn\'t changed at all....\'

Entering through the door a huge hall appeared in front of him.

"tell Von to meet me right now"

"Yes sir!"

Answering energetically, the knight headed towards where Butler Von might be.

Putting the bag above one of the couches, Zick sat on the other one beside it waiting for Butler Von\'s arrival. He could almost feel everyone\'s presence in the estate and so he was able to find some people he didn\'t know staying in the estate.

\'The other heirs.....\'

It seems some of the heirs returned, completing the mission given to them. There were totally three people staying in the rooms meant for heirs so it wasn\'t hard for him to guess who they were.

He could also feel Butler Von\'s presence heading towards him. He reached the hall within 30 seconds and bowed towards Zick with his signature stoic expression. His body hadn\'t changed much in any way even after two years, he still looked to be in his mid 20s.

"Welcome back, young master Zick"

Butler Von had headed towards Zick the moment he heard the knight said that Zick called for him. But reaching in front of Zick, he was surprised internally. He couldn\'t feel Zick\'s presence which means he had surpassed him already. He felt something out of place too, taking a look at Zick\'s face he knew what it was.

\'He is not smiling like he used to do.....\'

Butler Von wasn\'t surprised by this fact, people change on the battlefield by fighting for their lives ceaselessly. So he didn\'t find Zick\'s change that surprising.

"keep this above my bed and guard it by staying there until I come back"

Hearing Zick\'s plain voice, Butler Von train of thought was broken.

"Yes"

Butler Von answered with still a stoic expression, nothing had changed from before, he just had to follow his lord\'s order. But just following these orders gave him a sense of satisfaction which he hadn\'t experienced in a long time.

\'He has improved as well...\'

Though Zick didn\'t know the extent of Butler Von\'s improvement, he was still able to sense that he had definitely grown stronger than before.

​ Seeing Butler Von going towards his room, Zick also started walking towards the estate lord\'s room. He could have just made a servant pass on the plaque but he was curious about the reward Zevkoras was talking about. So he decided to go there once before going to his room.

"Hmm....."

Zick could feel the presence of the heirs moving, There was also the presence of assassins besides them.

\'They were already informed of my arrival.....\'

It seems the heirs exclusive servants had already passed on the information of his arrival to them. Even after feeling them move, Zick didn\'t stop moving.

Zick was only wary of one person among the three heirs heading towards him. He was the first son of the Melvix family who was a master swordsman.

Zick didn\'t know the identity of the other two heirs but he was able to identify the first son, Jarvin Melvix because he was the only one who could be a master swordsman among the heirs right now.

All the three heirs headed towards the estate lord\'s room for some reason.

\'Why are they all heading towards here?\'

Zick had thought that they would search him in his room but instead all three of them exactly headed towards where he was going, which made him confused for a second.

\'This isn\'t a coincidence.....there is probably something I don\'t know.....\'

Zick\'s didn\'t stop walking even while thinking all this, some maids would occasionally bow towards him while he walked through the corridor.

Zick reached the estate lord\'s room, the first among the heirs, without hesitating he opened the door and entered it. He could see Zevkoras sitting on the chair of his table, with a cup of tea in his hand and was looking at him with the same cold expression he had two years ago.

Zevkoras looked at Zick with cold eyes but internally he was surprised to no end.

\'He was able to become a peak rank knight within two weeks....?\'

Zevkoras grew curious as to what Zick did in the past two weeks, but he didn\'t ask it as that wouldn\'t matter anyway. He was a broad minded person and he wouldn\'t care about the minor details. What matters is that Zick was a peak rank knight now!

It was a feat which could make anyone doubt something even possible. Zevkoras had already tried keeping watch at what Zick was doing in this \'vacation\'. But Zick would always appear in random cities and just buy a few things useful for travelling and again disappear.

Even Zick reaching here so fast had made Zevkoras surprised.

\'A 14 year old kid became a peak rank knight.....\'

Even thinking of it made him feel weird, no one would have believed him if he tried saying this to them. He saw Zick walking towards him, taking out the plaque from his space ring and placing it above the table.

Zevkoras looked at it for a second and picked it up, putting it within his space ring.

"Well just wait for all the heirs to gather first."

Hearing this, Zick could only stand there and wait for them to arrive. He looked at Zevkoras sipping his tea with closed eyes.

\'I can\'t win against him.....\'

Zick was clearly able to sense the difference between his strength and Zevkoras\'s. Zevkoras had almost reached the peak of the master swordsman rank which is in a totally different league then where Zick currently was.

But Zick wasn\'t worried about it much, he was sure that he would surpass him soon

\'I just need time now...\'

KNOCK-KNOCK.

Someone knocked on the door unlike Zick and entered.
