79 Agents 3

Felicity was cultivating peacefully while Killua, at her side, was reminiscing on the past. It was like Killua couldn't get over the fact that Felicity accepted him again.

Despite his outer appearance of a cold person, deep inside, he was so attached to Felicity that he even considers her as his mother.

But in reality, Felicity was not her mother. She was only his mother figure because in the rough experiences he passed through, only Felicity was there for him.

And just like that, Felicity became his mother, which eventually she accepted and believed as well.

However, on the other hand, Senior Hui was worried. Now that the legacy was continuing, there was a worry that made him overwrought.

Some sentiments still linger in his mind that remain unanswered. But just looking at Felicity, and knowing she was cultivating, he couldn't bring himself to ask her.

However, it wasn't for this at this point. Felicity noticed Senior Hui's worried face and took that into account. Even with her concentrating, half of her consciousness was activated. Thus, Felicity still knows what other people around her feel.

"Senior Hui, why are you so overwrought? Did something happen or something was bothering you? I am worried."

Killua jolted then moved his eyes to peek at Felicity at the corners of his eyes. Even it was still common for him to see Felicity have this kind of concentration, it was still rare for his eyes since only those talented person can diverse their consciousness.

'Madam is still the best...'

"Nothing Madam." Senior Hui denied, but even how insisting he sounded like, Felicity didn't bite it.

"Don't worry, Senior Hui. I was just asking, you can tell me what it is." Felicity assured him.

Senior Hui sighed in an inaudible sound before answering.

"Will be Master Lucas be okay with the legacy? Didn't you tell me that he was a bit off aimless and doesn't have specific goals? Will that be okay?"

Those were the things that worried Senior Hui, and thinking of it, Felicity understood him.

"I see... If it's about that, we can just take the responsibility from him. We won't push him to hold what he doesn't like. After all, we can still continue the legacy."

"How does that mean that Master Lucas won't be angry with that? Didn't you also tell me that Master Lucas had some personality when it comes to decisions that he doesn't like? I know that you noted that you didn't see it and just assumed from his actions, but it's still risky."

"Senior Hui, don't be hysterical. It will be okay. Even Master was like that person who seems to be a pushover but in the end will make people suffer. He had a good side that I mentioned plenty of times." Felicity added as she stabilized the spiritual energy she gathered.

Senior Hui sighed as he finally understood Felicity, but there were still worries that were left in his system. 

However, there was one that couldn't understand the situation; it was Killua. He still doesn't know Lucas. Even though Senior Hui didn't know him, but how Felicity was praising him, he eventually admired him. But from Killua's perspective, he had some doubts.

By what doubts mean, he wasn't convinced that Lucas was worthy as Felicity's master, but he didn't disregard Felicity's thoughts either. He was just being too careful since he didn't know who Lucas was.

"I understand. Please forgive me. Maybe I was so excited that my worries unintentionally surfaced." Between worried breaths, Senior Hui said.

Felicity simply smiled. "Don't worry, really. And also, we have another guest. Can you greet him for me?" 

Senior Hui and Killua suddenly shifted their attention and felt that there was really someone hiding behind the doors. It was only a faint presence, but even with it, Felicity still noticed it.

However, she just didn't pinpointed the location as a respect to the guest she was talking about.

The door slid open, and there was revealed an immortal who had old facial features. He wears cheap clothes that weren't even considered as a robe. Also, he seemed to look like a beggar in the streets. What are immortals mostly known as a 'peasant'.

However, it was his only appearance. As cultivators in Immortal Heaven who were still at the Emperor Spirit Realm don't really have an opportunity, this disguise is the best for him since beggars in this Heaven are only at the Emperor Spirit Realm.

He was the only informant and intel of the pavilion that Felicity built a thousand years ago. And also by the title, he goes as...

"Dawn. Were you okay?" Killua asked in a static voice.

"Yes... I was..." Dawn answered in a low voice.

Not only was Dawn good at disguising and liked being a beggar, he also had an extraordinary ability to hide his presence, and one of his specialties was hiding his true cultivation base. His talent on this subject was topnotch, and could even be compared to Felicity's.

Even the strongest immortals can be duped by his deceptions.

"I know this isn't the best greeting, but what is your real cultvation base? I can't perceive it, to be precise." Felicity commented that made Dawn smile.

"It is the Immortal King Realm. I got plenty of resources from the Tsai Family's lockroom." Then a shy-like chuckle came after that sent chills down their spines.

"You are still a creep, Dawn." Senior Hui said.

"Yes... I am..."

"By the way, you did great with that stealthy move you made. Since I left, it appears that you have made significant progress. How come you can trick even my senses?"

"It wasn't that really great, Madam. I just got help from Trip. We were rather good practice partners."

Felicity raised her eyebrows as she heard another name. It wasn't that strong a name to remember, however, she took it into her interest that he wanted her to pry.

"Trip? How was he anyways? Was he still good with zither? Did he achieved enlightenment with his zither skills?" Felicity asked.

Zither is class of a stringed instrument. Historically, the term has been applied to any instrument in the psaltery family, or to any instrument with a thin, flat body and many strings strung across it. However, it wasn't just an instrument for them, it can be even used as a weapon in some way.

There were different arts that made sound arts surface in the martial world. And not just because it was a destructive form of a weapon, it was the most regarded weapon which still holds beauty in murder.

"He wasn't that active on the zither. But his Sound Manipulation Arts improved. I was even having a hard time escaping his ears." 

Felicity smiled. "That's good to hear. But why isn't he here? Was he still mad at me?" Felicity asked.

"I was mad at you, Madam. All of us were. However, we can forget that madness towards you anytime since you came back." A bold words, mostly being offensive in some way to Felicity but she didn't mind. She know that she did wrong there.

Even Senior Hui and Killua didn't react aggressively to it. They also understand Dawn in some way.

"Forgive me. But, I can't really explain why I did that and could just promise that I will do great this time. But with this set up, I think we won't be able to continue things promptly. Gather those who want to join. I will meet them tomorrow."

"Understood, Madam." Dawn said and disappeared in an instant. 

Meanwhile, Felicity could only shook her head at how skillful her subordinates have become. And remembering how she disregarded them for some illusion of life, she looked at herself contemptuously.

'I was still a bad parent after all. But being a parent of these strong immortals wasn't bad. Not just they were understanding, even with how I betrayed them, but they were also sensible.'

Killua stood up from his place then bowed before Felicity.

"I will be going now, Madam. I will come back tomorrow, " he said.

Felicity nodded, then closed her eyes and went back to cultivation. Even after Killua left, she didn't stop cultivating until the next morning came and almost seven immortals were standing outside the pavilion.

But even they were waiting for her that long, she didn't get out. She still hoped that they will be completed.

However, their numbers didn't increased. And as it seems there was no improvement, Felicity stable her spiritual energy then stopped cultivating.

"I think it's time to meet them again," she mumbled to herself, then opened the door of her room.

A bright sky greeted his eyes and a yard was in front of her. There were immortals standing as well, and were emitting some kind of aura that Felicity felt nostalgic to.

'I will continue the legacy.' she said to herself as she recalled all of the events she experienced in the Immortal Heaven on her first visit.
