There was a lot that Gracia had to tell Hannah about their family. Gracia had already begun to talk before they even got to a good spot.


    "So, Dad asked me to keep it from you as it wasn''t the right time. I trained in secret and had to act normal in front of you. It was all so frustrating," Gracia said with a smile, now looking at Hannah with a smile of her own.


    "So, what ss did you evolve to?" Gracia asked, and Hannah smiled.


    "Fifth ss."


    Fifth ss may sound high, but Gracia had seen powers higher than that. Meanwhile, Hannah was yet to even face a sixth ss creature. The only ones she remembered were the ciers behemoth and the strange, giant octopus that attacked them while they were at sea.


    They soon got to a calm spot, and Hannah opened up her spirit interface. She was surprised by the changes.

    Hannah was baffled by how much her stats had changed just from unsealing her powers. The one that shocked her the most was her spirit energy, which wasn''t up to 3000 a while ago!


    She wondered how long she could use her skills now that she had such a massive digit in her spirit energy stat.


    "Wanna test your new strength, eh?" Gracia smirked, and Hannah nodded.

    "Now this is a long list," Hannah mumbled as she looked at the set of skills she had. She looked back to the camp and began to wonder something.


    "Dexter hasn''t returned yet too," Hannah mumbled, and she continued to check her skills.


    Hearing what her sister said, Gracia looked at her, and with much reluctance, she finally spoke.


    "Dexter isn''ting back, sis."


    Hannah paused, raising a brow as she looked at Gracia, and her sister sighed.


    "Your engagement isn''t a normal one. It was decided from birth. You are to carry Prince Quan''s child and provide an heir to the throne of the dragons. That letter was written by Prince Quan''s servant Natasha, who was asked to do it by Dad," Gracia exined, and Hannah felt rage at hearing her words.


    "I watched them that night. Dexter refused to go and wanted to at least say goodbye to you, but Dad beat him up for resistance. He might be dead... He wasn''t moving when Dad took him away," Gracia further said, and Hannah clenched her fists.


    "So, where is he?" Hannah asked. Her breath was bing hard and loud, and Gracia felt a bit of pressure on her.


    "He—he can''t return. Dad sent him away personally! I couldn''t follow them!" Gracia said, and the influence on her was released. She looked at her sister in shock and gasped for breath.


    ''How is her presence so strong? Is it because she''s a ss higher than me?'' she thought as she regained her footing.


    Gracia gazed at Hannah, who was looking down at the ground with clenched fists. She couldn''t tell what was going on in her sister''s mind, but Hannah was angry for sure.


    Before she could say anything, Lisa appeared beside Hannah and gave her daughter a hug.


    Hannah, feeling her mother, released her hands, and then she felt hurt by the actions of her father.


    Lisa felt Hannah shaking in her hands, and she patted Hannah''s head.


    "Don''t worry. Your lover is alive. I met him while I wasing to this camp," she said, and it seemed to get Hannah''s attention.


    "Really?! He''s okay?!" Hannah asked with teary eyes, and Lisa nodded as she released her hug.


    "He wasn''t in good shape when I saw him, so I helped him. To think he was rted to you, could it be fate," Lisa said with a smile.


    "You know him?" Gracia asked, and Lisa nodded.


    "That young vampire carelessly went into Hell''s Tomb to save his family. I was surprised that he survived long enough for the vampire king to arrive," Lisa said, and Hannah smiled as she now knew that he was okay. But she wasn''t at ease just yet.


    "I''m going to look for him," Hannah said before she sprinted in a particr direction, leaving Lisa and Gracia there stunned.


    "You''re not going anywhere!!" A voice rang in her head, and she halted in her steps. The voice was low, yet reverberated so loudly in their heads.


    Seeing Hannah stop and Gracia shivering, Lisa looked back towards the camp to see Dian walking towards them with his eyes glowing golden.
