Chapter 163 - The Obyn Family's Final Boss

"~ Cough ~Cough… Alright... I'll welcome you anytime."

Tut...

Chiyou dropped the call, and her anxious family, who had long been surrounded with worried gazes, with their faces almost touching hers.

But unlike the first time when they didn't know who their enemy was, this time, their emotions weren't completely engulfed with fear. 

No.

They were also pissed off by the guts and the nerve of that vile spawn of a girl. 

No doubt about it, she was definitely checking in after realizing that her plans had been out to a halt. 

Despicable! Absolutely Despicable! 

"Chichi... What did that witch want?" Mother Obyn quickly broke her stupor with more anxiousness in her tone.

The Grandmaster said the evil villain would get back to them. But they didn't expect it to be this soon. 

It has been only a day or so since then. 

This was too fast! 

You know, they had been waiting for this moment. But now that it was here, the human heart had once again proved itself to be an anxious one. 

This moment was akin to how a player would pause or run around a scene right before entering the Final Boss's liar for the big battle. 

Were they ready? Were they truly prepared to face their final battle? 

In a game, one might run about, checking their healthcare or even their shields. But this was reality for them! 

They only had one life to live. So if the Grandmaster lost, then they too would lose! 

But then again, what was the difference?

Without the Grandmaster's help, they would still die. But that death might come later on with a painful experience. While losing now might result in their immediate death.

So all outcomes had to be considered. They could win the final battle with or without casualties, and they could also fail. 

But in the end, even after seeing how risky and on the edge things were, they still decided to believe in the Grandmaster and let fate decide. Dying with regrets was something they didn't want to see. As a family, they had already discussed the matter waiting for the final showdown. But they had underestimated how panicky their human hearts were.

.

Eyes, looking at each other, communicating telepathically, they could all understand each other's fears. 

Father Obyn thinned his lips and squinted his eyes deeply: "Wife, children... Settle down and give the girl some space."

Ah--

"Yes, dear."

"Yes, dad."

Mother Obyn and Chindu replied, withdrawing from their choking stance. They no longer smudged Chiyou again. 

"Chichi... What exactly did that ev-... Erm~... What exactly did your classmate say?"

"Dad, it's just as the Grandmaster predicted. she said she wants to pay us a visit... In other words, she wants to finish us off!"

Bang! 

Father Obyn slammed the wooden table before him violently.

His nostrils flared, and his entire face turned red as though it was about to explode. It wasn't just him but everyone else that turned frantic too.

Chiyou's words were the catalyst that dispelled all the remaining hesitating feelings in their hearts. Chindu clenched his little fists.

Want to come after his family? No way! They had the Grandmaster with them!

"Dad, mom, sister... There's no time. It's better to call the Grandmaster and report the matter fast."

"That's right," Mother Obyn added. "She said she would be coming tomorrow afternoon, then wouldn't that be perfect?"

"Yes, mom... I also think that she's still fooled into us being sick. So tomorrow, we'll have to act and play the part of a sick family!" Chiyou replied, nodding vigorously.

"Girl... What's the point of taking this much? The earlier we inform the Grandmaster, the better. After all, who is to say that he won't be busy tomorrow? Quick. Quick! Call the Grandmaster now!"

Yes! Yes! Contacting the Grandmaster was essential!

.

With that, Chiyou wasted no time searching for Grandmaster's name on her phone.

Only, it was Butler Sheng who answered. [Miss Chu, please wait a while. I'll get the Grandmaster right away.]

"Okay!" Chiyou replied, not knowing where the number Dorian had gotten was his personal or business line. 

No... People like the Grandmaster would probably have 3 or more lines for various purposes. A person could have 2 or more personal lines too.

And from this call alone, it can be seen, but Butler Sheng probably carried a majority, or not all his phones. 

Yes! Yes!

Chiyou thought so.

It was just that she didn't know that Dorian had given her Butler Sheng's contact since he had considered her to be a customer earlier on. 

Of course, those that could enter Dorian's contact list on his actual phone would have to put their backs into it before making such a thing happen. 

For customers, he planned to let Butler Sheng handle things.

Of course with the Academy opened up, sooner or later, there would be a particular unit or department tasked with dealing with such matters. 

Dorian sat in the vehicle, driving off to set up his booth. 

"Grandmaster, it's for you... It's Miss Chiyou."

"Oh?" Dorian's turned slightly.

As expected, on this chessboard, he made the right move.

.

Dorian listened carefully, not missing a single detail from Chiyou's words. 

"Miss Chiyou... I'll be there.

["Great! Thank you, Grandmaster!"] Chiyou and her family turned ecstatic after hearing the Grandmaster's reply. 

After all, who knows if he already had another appointment then? Thankfully, not all their luck had been drawn away, leading them to this fateful opportunity with Dorian. 

Chiyou swore that after everything returned, she would continue to do more good in the world but now become vigilant, lest her family get attacked again. 

Dorian handed his phone back to Butler Sheng with an expressionless face. 

Tonight, he would set up his stall.

It was just that unbeknownst to him, a mightier threat was already brooding in the dark.

~Plop. Plop. Plop.~

Strange but subtle noises erupted within the underground sewage. 

But if anyone came down here, they wouldn't be able to spot anything.

However, the culprits of the matter were only as big as a toenail now.

The beings all shone with a vicious light in their eyes. 

Soon, it would be time for them to please their master.

Hehhehehe~

For now, the city could remain peaceful. But for how long?
