Arthur returned, and told Blake, "Sir! The bracelet has been thrown at Mabel's face!"
The next second, he added, "I aimed really well!"
Blake: …good job.
Arthur then saw Lilly coming downstairs, and said to her at once, "Miss Lilly, I've thrown the bracelet at Mabel's face! I aimed really well!"
Lilly gave him a thumbs-up at once. "Awesome! You're amazing, Uncle Arthur!"
Arthur was overjoyed.
Lilly ran to Bettany, hugging her. "Grandma, you were so cool!"
Polly piped up along as well, eager to please. "Grandma, you're! My! Goddess!"
Bettany glanced at Polly. "You should thank that tongue of yours. I'd have cooked you countless times otherwise!"
Polly flew away at once, landing on Lilly's shoulder.
"Grandma can't cook Polly! Polly is Lilly's favorite baby!"
Bettany shook her head. "Lilly, are you hungry?"
Breaking a bracelet out of thin air must have taken a lot of her energy.
She was going to have to nourish herself with a whole chicken.
No, two chickens. One steamed and one broiled, to see which one Lilly liked more.
There were many members of the Crawford family, anyways. The others could finish what Lilly couldn't.
Lilly said, "Yes, I'm so so hungry!"
Bettany said, "I'll go cook something!"
The other Crawfords took a step back. The old lady was a mastermind in the kitchen, capable of making whatever she wanted.
Lilly had gotten thinner since coming back, which only made Bettany want to cook for her even more.
And what if there was too much food? Well, everyone could eat together, and eat with all their might!
Blake asked, "Lilly, what happened with Mabel just now?"
Lilly snuck a glance at the kitchen, making sure Bettany couldn't hear them.
Then she told Blake all about meeting King Libra in the Ninth Palace.
Blake only knew that Lilly was missing, and she had gone somewhere that none of them could go to.
He hadn't expected for it to be so dangerous, though.
Blake subconsciously clenched his fists, furrowing his brows.
He said, "It seems like this traitor's come to mankind too…"
Wait, traitor?
Blake stared at Lilly in shock, opening and closing his mouth.
Since the bad guy was using the title of 'traitor' to wreak havoc, that had to mean that Lilly's status was pretty high up.
He'd studied 'underground culture' before, and knew that the hierarchy's most powerful person was Emperor Prosper. Below Emperor Prosper was Emperor Eastmount, King Earthid, Buddha.
Then there were the Five Ghost Emperors, and then there were the ten Hell Palace Rulers.
There were even more titles and an even more complicated system under the ten palace rulers. Based on the structure that everyone knew of, the King of Hell was the most respected person in the underworld—
If there was a traitor, Lilly's status was definitely extremely high up!
Blake made a guess in his heart, before asking, "Lilly, are you the King of Hell?"
Lilly held up her thumb. "Yep~ You're so smart, Dad, you got it!"
Blake: …
The uncles: …
Josh, Zachary and Drake: …
Hannah: ?
What were they talking about???
Hannah stared at her Uncle Blake, nothing but confused.
Wasn't her sister Lilly just a very powerful practitioner?
