The car pulled up next to a mall.

Joshua led Xylia into the mall, grabbed some gifts, and then they got back on the road, heading off to pay their respects to a family elder.

Before long, their car pulled up in front of a private villa on the outskirts of Daltonia’s capital city.

Joshua and Xylia stood outside the villa.

The butler had been waiting at the gate for some time.

As soon as he saw Joshua and Xylia arriving together, he hurried over to greet them at the entrance.

The butler greeted them warmly at the door. “You must be Mr. Garcia, correct?”

Joshua nodded. “Yes, Mr. Lennox is expecting me. We’re here to pay him a visit.”

“My master has been waiting for you both. Please, come inside,” the butler said.

He accepted the gifts from Joshua and handed them to a nearby servant, then led Joshua and Xylia toward the main villa.

They arrived at the main villa. As soon as they stepped inside, a cough sounded from within, followed by a warm, deep voice.

Mr. Lennox called out, “Is that you, Joshua?”

The butler answered, “Yes, Mr. Garcia is here, and he’s brought his girlfriend to visit you. These are the gifts he picked out for you.”

On the sofa in the living room, a man sat with his back to them.

He didn’t bother to turn around, his voice easygoing and familiar. “Why bring gifts? You’re here, that’s enough -come over and let me get a good look at you.”

His way of speaking felt just like home, casual and warm–pure Alverland style.

‘Wait, he doesn’t sound like someone from Daltonia at all,‘ Xylia thought, surprised. ‘I totally expected to meet a local.‘

Joshua took Xylia’s hand and led–her over to the man.

“Mr. Lennox, it’s been ages. You’re still just as strong and spirited as ever,” Joshua said warmly.

By the time he finished speaking, they were already standing in front of Mr. Lennox.

Xylia finally got a good look at him.

He had the typical Alverland look–about forty, with keen, striking eyes and an unmistakable air of authority.

He sat on the sofa, a blanket draped over his legs. His posture was proper, but there was a hint of awkwardness to the way he sat.

Xylia kept her eyes in check, careful not to stare out of politeness.

But Mr. Lennox’s gaze settled on her, quietly sizing her up.
