Chapter 31: Saint Billy

"I need to meet the patriarch immediately, I have urgent news!" Jule Burton yelled as he saw the guards in front of a huge building,

he had made his way from the tavern to the patriarch's office in a few minutes, but he felt it was years too late.

One of the guards looked at him emotionlessly, "Does your breaking news have anything to do with Caesar Burton?"

"Eh? How did you know?" Jules opened his eyes wide

"Your urgent news wasn't urgent enough! Go and sit there with your peers, they all brought different news about Caesar before you," said the guard and pointed toward a group of people, about twenty in all.

"All these?.. May I ask what the patriarch will do about this?"

"you don't need to worry about this, Jule, the patriarch is already in a meeting with the council of the family to discuss the news and what to do about it.

Go and sit with them. Perhaps the patriarch will summon you. Most of them came with different news.. One of them came shouting that a relative of ours slept with a goddess and their descendant was named Caesar Haha."

Jule Burton was surprised, but he did as the guards told him and went to sit quietly with those who preceded him..

---------

"You all must have heard the news.. do any of you have an opinion?" Patriarch Brian Burton said calmly, but there was excitement evident in his old eyes

"Uncle, it's probably just a name similarity, if we had someone like that we would definitely have noticed him from a young age!" A middle-aged man said

"Why not be a bastard that one of the family men gave birth to while on his travels and left him behind?"

"This is really an option, we have thousands of men in our families and I don't rule out something like this happening, actually it's pretty common"

"Are you saying we just go and recognize him as one of us? What if it's a plot against the family?"

"Who would plot against you by giving you such a genius, you stupid old man!?"

"...."

"We will not lose anything by just meeting, and inquiring more about him."

The argument continued among the council members for about half an hour, when the patriarch's voice sounded, "Okay, I've heard enough, let us send an envoy to Caesar Burton to clear the doubt, but that envoy must show enough respect and be strong at the same time,

he must show our goodwill and our appreciation for him without showing any weakness on our part. Do any of you have a suitable candidate?"

"Billy."

"Right, our best front right now outside of the patriarch, is undoubtedly Billy." Everyone nodded their heads

"Then it's done! Billy, I expect a detailed report on Caesar Burton in front of me in a couple of weeks."

"I won't disappoint you." A young-looking man standing at the side of the room bowed and disappeared.

-------

"Yeah.. yeah.. turn right a little, and.. good girl! haha." Robin was overjoyed

Zara was able to draw her first talisman just 5 days after his meeting with the Duke, although she was not part of the drawing of the original copy, watching Robin draw the 100 talismans in a row, in addition to her strong soul and her training in drawing during the past months, it made the pattern drawing very simple.

Although it took about half an hour to draw the pattern, and she couldn't finally hide it inside the piece of hide, this still made Robin quite happy,

maybe her ability didn't help him now but she will definitely be of great help in the future.

As he praised Zara, a voice echoed outside, "I am Billy Burton, of the Burton family in the Duchy of Alton, I have come to convey the family's greetings to the young Caesar Burton and have the honor of meeting him."

"Billy?" Robin was surprised and jumped towards his window, to find his old friend standing in front of house number 208, with one look he could determine Billy's level.. 21!

This is an excellent level for a young man who is still a century and a half old, with his original talent he was supposed to never reach this level in his lifetime!

"Haha, Billy, it's been too long! hurry up and Come in!!" Robin waved from his window at his old friend.

Who, in turn, was astonished when he heard his name called in such a friendly way, who might know him in the Duchy of Bradley? But when he turned his head and saw someone waving to him in the window of the next house... "You.. you.. you.. you!!!!."

He took two steps back but then took three forward and narrowed his eyes in confusion as if he was still trying to decide whether what he was seeing was real.

"Haha come here you little bastard, it's been all these years since we met but you will stay there and look at me?"

"You.. Rob..? no ! that's unreasonable.. you're a kid, you haven't turned 14 yet!" even as a saint, billy couldn't control his feelings now

"Just come and let us continue our conversation properly. CAESAR! Buy some good wine and come too."

Caesar, who had already opened the door, nodded, "Yes, big brother!" Then he hurriedly ran towards the establishment's restaurant.

Billy watched the young man who was running in front of him after one command from Robin 'Is this the Caesar the kingdom is talking about?'

Everything happened quickly and Billy could not comprehend anything but decided to go to that boy who pretended to know him and wait for Caesar to come back.

--------------

"Come sit down, how have you been all these years?" Robin smiled and asked

"Hey, don't try to confuse me, you do look like someone I know, but that person is probably an old man or maybe dead now..." Billy looked sad when he mentioned his friend.

"I wouldn't have died so quickly, when we parted I told you to send a message to the patriarch that I would go training, I didn't say I was going to commit suicide!"

"A message? You... are you really Robin?!" Billy stood dumbfounded

"And who else?" Robin chuckled

"Robin, Robin!!" Billy came up and hugged him tightly, then left him and began to look carefully at his face, "What happened to you? How is it possible that your body hasn't gotten old? No.. It's gotten a year younger!"

"I found a good beauty cream for my skin, would you like some for your ass?!" said Robin, his cheeks were still held tight in Billy's hand

"This is not a topic you can joke about! At least tell me what happened to your cultivation, you were at the tenth level when you are now at the fifth!"

"Don't waste your time with questions you won't like its answer then! I can't tell you what happened to me.. just know that I'm Robin in blood and flesh!"

"..can't you even tell me where you have been all these years? I have worried about you so much.. the patriarch still sighs and shakes his head when your name is mentioned before him." Bey finally calmed down and returned to sit in front of Robin

"I told him that I would go out to study the heavenly laws, and that is exactly what happened."

Billy was about to ask more questions, when the door was opened and Caesar came in with a bottle of wine, "Excuse me, Robin, I have a job to finish, after I'm done we will continue our talk."

Then he rose from his sitting, picked up the bottle from Caesar's hand, and placed it on the table, "Mr.. Caesar, please don't trouble yourself. I've come from afar to talk to you for a bit, do you mind if I take a few minutes of your time?"
