《Rise of the White Dragon 》Chapter 173: Visiting Saulo Dimas - Part 2
Advertisement
"Mom, go with Catharina and Cristina in your car. I'm going with Ingrid, and I'm also taking Zeus in the back seat. After all, it's good to go out for a while," Luan told her.
Maira didn't care; she also thought it was good for Zeus to go out for a while, especially where her father lived since he had a lot of space to run and play. "Okay, let's do that."
Amanda on the other hand was already gone. Earlier, Sebastian appeared and took her out. Needless to say, they were having a date.

Luan and his family had been visiting his grandfather all together for some time. When they arrived, security guards and maids treated them with the utmost importance.
Zeus was excited. The smell of fresh air in the place was very pure. Despite not having the absurd amount of Qi that was at Dimas Mansion, it was fun to vary things a bit. It was also not like he was going out for the first time; sometimes Cristina and Catharina would take him to the beach and let him play in the sea.
Since Zeus' real appearance was disguised as a German shepherd, this did not arouse suspicion.
However, even in disguise, the arrogance of a powerful animal and Zeus's aura was still formidable. This somewhat intimidated the security guards, especially the maids.
*Whosh! Whosh! Whosh!*
When they reached the top of the hill, in the open space in front of Saulo's mansion, the man himself was there, making quick movements so fast that the sound of the wind being cut echoed.
Unlike before, Saulo's muscles were now much better developed, and his health was like that of a man at a young age, full of vitality.
"Maira, Luan, Catharina, err... Cristina? And Ingrid, welcome!" Saulo, noticing them, turned and stopped what he was doing.

A maid saw that Saulo had stopped and brought him a towel.
Saulo wiped his sweaty face and with a bright smile he said, "It is good to see you all here. Come, let's go inside to talk."
They say that the older a person is, the less chance there is of becoming stronger. This was not necessarily true, especially in the case of Saulo. During the few times he had trained, he had already become 8 times stronger. That, considering the short time he trained, was an excellent result.
"Grandpa, you have become very strong," Luan praised.
"Haha! All thanks to my good grandson." Saying this, Saulo laughed out loud, which scared the maids.
Normally, Saulo was very quiet and indifferent; he rarely laughed. But now he was laughing like that, so loudly and shamelessly.
"In part, yes-" Luan paused for a moment, then smiled slowly. "But if, grandfather, you didn't try so hard and have not have had so much talent, it wouldn't be possible to achieve so much in such a short time." Luan was being sincere when he said that.
Saulo laughed very happily with what his grandson said. He then remembered something and said in the direction of the maid next to him, "Leila, go to the kitchen and bring some snacks."
"Right away, Mr. Saulo." Leaving, Laila returned with another helper with two silver trays. Inside the trays were birthday sweets and snacks such as drumsticks, sausages, small pastries, etc.
Another maid also came in, with a large pitcher of orange juice, and behind her, two maids were carrying glass cups.
"Dad, this..." Maira was confused to see this.
Saulo smiled and said, "It's been a long time since I've been able to eat these oily things, but now that I can, I got into the habit of eating them sometimes."

That was an important truth. Considering his age, eating such things was a privilege that he could not dare to eat before, since it would have affected his health a lot. However, thanks to cultivation, his health was as strong as a bull.
"Sit down fast, sit down. Snacks are here and we can eat. You are hungry, right?" Saulo said.
Everyone sat on the sofa around a large glass table. Maira sat next to Saulo, while Ingrid sat next to Luan and Cristina. Catharina sat in an armchair alone.
After the sweets and snacks were served, Cristina felt quite shy, reaching out to pick up the food.
Only when everyone's dishes were filled with snacks and sweets and everyone else had started to eat did she eat some more.
Although she had eaten some light snacks earlier, these snacks made the person eating only feel a little satisfied after eating a little. It would be satisfactory for a moment, but the person would be hungry again not long after.
Cristina buried her head and ate only the first snacks. She was still shy in front of Saulo, despite everything. He had a huge presence and was a very important person. Although Luan has an even greater presence, she was already familiar with him, unlike Saulo...
"Dad, do I remember you saying yesterday that there was something you wanted to show us?" After eating a little, Maira adjusted her posture and asked.
"About that, we need to go somewhere else," Saulo said seriously, "I got my hands on something very unique. Initially I already wanted my grandson to take a look, but he was out earlier, but luckily he has come back in time. So, it would be ideal to take a look and see if you can identify what it is."
Luan looked at his grandfather with some interest. He stopped eating, and said, "Is it near here?"
"Yes, it is kept in my room, in a safe," Saulo said.
"Grandfather, why are you acting so mysterious?" Catharina said as she laughed.
"It's not that I'm trying to be mysterious, just that, I really don't know exactly what it is. However, I have no doubt that it is something of value. Just by seeing you will understand," Saulo said.
The maids collected what was left of the table, and Saulo brought them to his room.
Saulo's room was very large, around 20 - 22m².
A large wardrobe was dragged away from the wall by Saulo and behind it a silver safe became visible. Saulo needed to provide fingerprint, facial recognition, and also a key; only then did the safe open.
In Saulo's hand, he retrieved from inside the safe something like a cold metal plate, but what caught the most attention was the aura of Qi it emitted.
"So that's what it is..." Luan seemed to recognize what it was.

Convergence Series
Eulisses Malinor is a prodigious and somewhat reclusive wizard with an unconventional outlook on life itself. The latter may or may not be related to him shedding the burdens of mortality some time ago. He claims that every wizard that takes pride in themself needs to reside in a tower in the middle of nowhere. It definitely has nothing to do with the Addia fanatics that continue to seek him out. Successfuly, much to his discontent. Ever out to ‘cleanse’ him, or bloody murder him if you'd ask the lich himself. But soon, that will no longer be a problem, as Eulisses has finally gathered every reagent - magical or otherwise he needs. He will tear open and stabilize a miniature Rift, essentially creating his very-own pocket realm in which even Addia’s gaze will no longer be able to reach him. Everything has been carefully planned out in advance, so there is no possibility of failure. You can maybe then imagine his bafflement, when instead of the nothingness of his successfully created pocket realm, Eulisses finds himself in a quite holy looking hall, amidst quite too-baffled looking fellows, in the centre of a gigantic summoning circle - allegedly, he cannot read the runes that make it up - and facing a young and quite fair maiden that stares at him quite wide-eyed.
