Rebirth vs. Rebirth: Tragedy to Triumph

Chapter 128 Falconry Bonds

“I belong to a lineage of expert falconers,” Sophia declared with pride.

This revelation left Violeta confused, but Hayden took a shot in the dark, “So, are you related to the Reid family?”

Caught off guard, Sophia admitted, “Indeed, I am!”

“That makes sense.”

The Reid family is renowned for producing some of the finest falconers in the nation.

For Hayden, getting involved with cagles meant he needed to contact their family.

Over tea, he calmly observed, “You must be Charles’s sister, then.”

Sophia, clearly surprised, rose from her seat. “Are you acquainted with my brother?”

“I caught a glimpse of him at an international falconry exhibition.”

Sophia beamed with pride, “Wow! I didn’t know Charles participated in an exhibition abroad! He is truly my hero!”

Following this conversation, Sophia turned to Violeta with an eager proposal, “Violeta, if you accompany me, you’ll get the chance to partake in our family’s yearly Falconry Festival! It’s an event filled with skilled falconers and even a rabbit–catching contest. Why not come along?”

Though the idea was enticing, only proficiently trained falcons were eligible for such competitions. Young fledglings like Hera, still mastering basic commands, were not ready to compete and could only watch from the sidelines.

Nevertheless, witnessing Zeus in action captivated Violeta, who expressed her keenness.
