Chapter 1843 Zayden Is The Chosen One
He felt very conflicted after receiving this sudden piece of news.
“Juan, are you sure you are not mistaken? Why would the treasure have anything to do with our family? Why would my son…”
He had thought that his mercenary uncle would be elated to receive this news. He did not expect him to look more worried than happy.
“Uncle Davin, I think the treasure is connected to our family because Zayden has Girin Blood. However, it could be just a complete coincidence that Zayden is the chosen one. Then again, this could actually be fated as well!”
Is that so? Would a twist of fate be a good or bad thing?
Levant looked at Davin, who appeared to be deep in thought. “Do you feel very proud now that your son holds the key to the treasure? Seems like the treasure is very much linked to you too. When you attain the treasure, don’t forget my slice of the pie!”
Davin was not proud. In fact, he was feeling very troubled.
He suddenly looked up to look at Juan and Levant. “My son owns Girin Blood. With so many people aiming for the treasure, they will be plotting to get their hands on him as well. No! I have to rush back to Y City to protect Zayden!”
Both Juan and Levant were quite taken aback by his reaction.
They had expected him to bring Zayden there immediately before devising a plan to obtain the key from Lucas. Then, he would obtain the treasure!
“Don’t you want the treasure, Davin?”
“I’ve never set my eyes on whatever treasure. All I want is to protect my son and have him grow up safely and in a carefree manner. No treasure in the world can measure up to my son!”
Davin’s answer made Levant admire him greatly.
It would seem even mercenary people had their Achilles’ heel.
To Davin, the bond between a father and son was still more important than treasure.
“Uncle Davin, if Zayden is fated to be connected to the treasure, he would never be able to escape this saga. Why don’t—”
“Why don’t we what? Juan, are you still eyeing the treasure and aiming for Zayden’s blood? You can’t do that! You are his cousin!”
“Do you have to be this anxious over three drops of blood?” Levant asked.
Davin stared at him seriously. “Of course, I have to! There are so many people out there who want to have access to the treasure. If each person asks for three drops of blood from my son, what will be left in the end? Moreover, he is so afraid of pain. I will definitely not allow anyone to set their sights on him!”
“Do you really think those who have their minds set on the treasure will not lay their hands on him just because you refuse to grant them your permission?”
At this juncture, Levant looked at Juan and continued, “Juan, didn’t you say that you just wanted Zayden to contribute that three drops of blood to settle this issue with the treasure? You mean that this was the only way to ensure Zayden’s safety as it would stop others from targeting him.”
Juan nodded.
He felt that there was no point in avoiding a matter that had already happened.
It would be better to face it and solve it as soon as possible.
When Davin heard that, he felt that it was a good idea as well.
If three drops of blood could be exchanged for future peace and serenity, it was definitely something that could be considered.
“Davin, I think Juan’s idea is reasonable. What do you think?”
Davin was silent for a while as he struggled to make a decision.
“I think it makes sense too, but my child is not just my own. Sheep is his mother. I have to discuss this with her first.”
With that, Juan and Levant did not pursue it further.
When Davin decided to return to Y City, they suggested that he make a swift decision. Otherwise, if Lucas, Steven, and the others found out about this, more trouble would be headed their way.
