Chapter 479: Resurrection Of The Dead

At the Campbell mansion.

“Father, Augustus had left; he had not yet returned. Furthermore, there was a fierce battle in the sky just now, and he seemed to be involved. Should we send some people to look for him?”

The Campbell family’s higher-ups were holding a meeting in a hall. The meeting was attended by Armand, McGee, Newman, Freya, and the other older family members.

More than ten people were gathered at the round table. Newman’s face was filled with concern, and he spoke in a worried tone.

The battle in the sky had lasted half an hour. The royal city had been torn apart even before the battle began. The Campbells were not spared either. A few cracks had ripped the mansion into several pieces. Many people were injured when their houses collapsed. The Campbell family had been too preoccupied with rescuing their family members to notice the battle in the sky. Fortunately, it did not take long for the cracks in the ground and the houses to return to their original state. However, Augustus had vanished. That had caused Newman a great deal of concern.

“Looking for Augustus?” McGee snorted; he was sitting not far away from him. “I am not sure how many changes have occurred in the Campbell family because of Augustus in the last few days. Every time Augustus went out, he caused trouble, and at one point, he even provoked the gods. There are rumors that the kingdom’s seven gods are fighting each other for the sake of competing for faith and that they nearly tore the royal city apart. If Augustus dared to get involved in such a matter, then he deserved to die.”

“What are you on about, McGee?” Newman locked his gaze on his older brother. McGee did not want to be outdone. “What is the matter, Newman? Is there something wrong with what I said? Augustus is either in trouble or on his way to getting into trouble. Augustus owed 900 holy relics after losing a bet with Watson at the Royal Academy. I am curious if you intend to ask the family to pay for that.”

“It is all gibberish. Eldest Brother, how can you believe those rumors?”

Newman’s pride weakened significantly. He had heard about it as well, but he pretended not to know because he had no way of paying for those 900 holy relics.

“Let us not get into that right now. The Campbells have been humiliated by Augustus’ performance in the Dragon Knight recruitment process. We had high hopes for him, but instead of becoming a Dragon Knight, he became the kingdom’s laughing stock! Forget about that. He even locked himself up after coming home, and when he came out, he had transformed into a woman. Why can’t we scold him?”

McGee’s voice became increasingly animated as he spoke. He could not have children due to physical reasons, and Augustus was regarded as the Campbell family’s heir due to his exceptional talent. However, Augustus’ performance had deteriorated to the point where he was behaving like a psychopath. McGee, who had been displeased with him for a long time, could not take it any longer.

“We’re all family here. Do not argue. Can’t you just sit down and speak amiably?”

At that precise moment, a slightly plump man seated at the far end of the table spoke cautiously.

“Who are you to speak here?”

“I am speaking with my older brother. What’s it to you?”

When they heard the fat man’s words, Newman and McGee frowned and looked at the man. They fought because they were members of the main family. They had the right to do so. They had never seen the person at the far end of the table before. What right did he have to scold them?

“I am Lubin. I am from the border.” The fat man formally introduced himself. Newman’s expression darkened as soon as he heard that. He had a theory as to why his son Augustus was becoming increasingly depressed. Watson was from the border, which gave him a negative impression of Lubin, also from the border.

“How can a guy from the border speak at this meeting? Don’t divide the family. Get lost! This is no place for you! I don’t mind sending you out if you don’t leave. It doesn’t look like your family educated you in etiquette. I can assist them.”

Newman snorted coldly and turned his wrath on Lubin.

“Master Newman, please relax. Lubin is new to the Campbell household and is unfamiliar with the house rules. I am sure I will teach him a good lesson later. In any case, Master Newman, do not get so worked up.”

After being chastised by Newman, the people around Lubin were enraged. On the surface, they could only smile at him. While scolding Lubin, they consoled Newman and the others. Lubin had been invited to the meeting because he had demonstrated great strength when he arrived in the capital. He had also brought many valuable items and was even invited to the royal palace.

They had been questioning Lubin about his life at the border for the past few days. He had shown off his wealth at the border. He had even given some of his tools to his family members, raising his status within the family.

Initially, Lubin was there to see his family members. The ignorant man had not expected to get involved in a disagreement with Newman. As a result, many of the higher-ups from the branch families were dissatisfied with him. They discussed not bringing him there the next time.

There were six branch families in the Campbell family, seven including the main family. Those branch families were the results of the Campbell family’s early political marriages to expand their influence. Members of the branch family could not become the patriarch because their bloodline was not pure enough. They had been suppressed for years by people from the main family. They were no different than their subordinates to the main family. If the main family members wanted to kill them, they would have to pinch their noses and bear with it.

“I feel as if the air in the room has become dirty after attending a meeting with such a person! Furthermore, despite being a Campbell family member, I heard that Lubin had joined the border count. Isn’t this an act of betrayal?”

Lubin remained silent as those around him chastised him. However, Newman continued to speak about that. Armand, who sat at the head of the table, had remained quiet. He did not get involved.

“Of course, that is not regarded as a betrayal. Master Newman, I hope you will refrain from being so aggressive. Why don’t you go out if you don’t like the environment here?” They heard a young and tender voice.

“Who dares to address me in such a manner?”

Newman took a quick look around. That voice was not Lubin’s. Instead, it felt very familiar to him. As he turned his head around to look for the source, the others did as well, and they saw a youth dressed in a long white robe. His hands were behind his back, and he had a confident smile on his young face. As he walked in, his blue eyes were filled with all kinds of stars.

“Watson!”

Newman gritted his teeth. “How dare you come here?”

“Young Master Watson,” he says. Lubin stood up and walked in front of Watson, respectfully kneeling on one knee. The Campbell family’s higher-ups’ expressions immediately darkened. They were surprised that Lubin had bowed toward Watson. They would not invite that man to another meeting.

“Do not be rude to the guests, Newman.”

Armand, who had been resting with his eyes closed, abruptly opened them. He supported his chin with his hands crossed. “Why have you come to the Campbell family, Watson?”

“I have two pieces of news to share with you. The first is good news, and the second is bad news. Which one would you like to hear first?”

“There’s no need for that, Watson. Is it a good or bad thing? How is that relevant to us?” Newman appeared dissatisfied. Even Freya, one of the main family’s three siblings, followed suit. “Watson, the Campbell mansion is not where you can do whatever you want.”

“You’ve caused the Campbell family to be in such a miserable state, and yet you still dare to come here.”

“Augustus and Watson were not the only ones fighting in the sky. And Augustus has gone missing. Maybe it is because of Watson.”

The Campbell family’s older family members on both sides of the conference table debated it animatedly. Every single one of them looked at Watson with a hostile expression on their face.

“Everyone, please be quiet.” Armand knocked on the table with his hand. Everyone in the room calmed down. Then, he turned to Watson and said, “Watson, speak. What news did you bring? I would prefer to hear the bad news first.”

“The bad news is that Augustus had died in the battle to protect His Majesty, who the gods threatened.”

Watson’s words resounded like a thunderclap, exploding within the Campbell mansion.

“What do you mean, he died protecting His Majesty? Watson, you murdered my son! Return my son’s life to me!” Newman pounced on Watson like an enraged lion, baring his fangs and brandishing his claws.

“Stay away from Young Master Watson!” Lubin raised his head while kneeling on the ground. Six wings spread from his back, and as his wings flapped, a powerful platinum-tier aura enveloped the entire house, causing Newman to take two steps backward subconsciously. Blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.

“You scumbag! You are in league with Watson, as expected! My son is dead, and I no longer want to live. Today, I am going to kill all of you. I don’t care who wants to stop me.”

Newman’s eyes were bloodshot as he crazily took a step toward Watson. Everyone in the room was moved, but no one stopped him.

The corners of Armand’s mouth twitched. “You said that there were two pieces of news. You’ve given us the bad news. So, what is the good news?”

“The good news is that I can bring Augustus back to life.”

Watson spoke clearly and enunciated each word. Newman had been approaching him erratically, but when he heard those words, he froze like a statue. “What do you mean, Watson? A resurrection? Can you bring the dead back to life? Why didn’t you say so earlier?”

If someone else had claimed to be able to bring the dead back to life, Newman would have laughed and thought that person was insane. However, it was Watson. He had witnessed Watson’s various abilities firsthand, and he knew what a terrifying monster Watson was. If Watson said he could do it, then he might be able to do it.

After the battle, the Campbell family had already sent people to look for Augustus. However, they had returned empty-handed. Naturally, he had also dispatched some of his men to look for Augustus. He was mentally prepared for Augustus to be in danger after considering everything that had happened recently. He still sobbed when he heard Watson’s bad news.

However, Watson had given him hope after he had broken down. Since that was the case, he should not have said anything about Augustus’ death. Was he playing with Newman’s emotions?

“As I previously stated, I have good and bad news for you. Master Armand requested the bad news first, so I delivered it.” Watson shook his head.

“Stop playing word games with me, Watson. You claimed to be able to resurrect Augustus. I am not sure I believe what you said,” Armand said, his face filled with disbelief.

“That is all I have to say. I will bring Augustus back to life in front of everyone.”

Watson appeared unconcerned. A chess piece glowed with starlight on his chest. Everyone’s hearts tightened the moment that chess piece appeared.. They felt as if Watson held the key to their fate.
