Old Chakus' funeral came to an end.

When relatives and friends return to Chakus Manor, after using up dinner, they will disperse and return to their original work, study and life.

In the evening, the long dining table in the manor restaurant was filled with relatives and friends.

There are many long tables spliced ​​together and covered with white tablecloths. In addition to the beginning and end, dozens of people can sit on each side.

As the new baron, Hilbert is now the leader of the Chakus family, who will sit at the top without hesitation.

As the last meal after bidding farewell to the old baron, Chakus Manor attaches great importance to it. Some old baron friends may be difficult to see in the future.

The dinner was conducted by the estate chef Portman, and he hired a team of chefs from several restaurants in the city to help. Except for some traditional British "dark cuisine", others are all more famous and diverse delicacies.

Among them, there are whole slices of fried into steak, which controls the rawness according to the preferences of relatives and friends; there are also secret foie gras and caviar; there are also some popular Chinese dishes such as sweet and sour pork ribs and kung pao chicken.

The atmosphere was harmonious on the dining table, and they talked about some interesting stories and the past.

Hilbert cut the steak and stared at his wine glass while eating.

Hilbert has not told anyone about killing evil spirits with his own hands, including his own mother. It is not that he does not want to share this message.

But there must be a reason for thinking that there has never been such a magical power outside during such a long period of time in the family.

As the mysterious man said, this is a power belonging to the bloodline of the Chakus family.

Hilbert shook his hand that could still feel the pain and weakness.

From now on, I will take over the Chakus family.

He stood up, raised his wine glass, and gently hit the wall of the glass with his dining fork.

"Ding Ding Ding ~"

The crisp sound attracted everyone's attention and the restaurant gradually became quiet.

"Thank you for taking the time to attend my father's funeral. As the direct bloodline of the Chakus family... I hope everyone can..."

In fact, it was a bunch of polite words. Hilbert used to dislike it, but now he learns to control it.

In this process, it seemed like one thing was to do with one's heart. As he said this, what he recalled in his mind was the figure of his father on important occasions in the past.

‘Am I really qualified to stand here like him?’

In the past, what I avoided was not only the self-righteous responsibilities, but perhaps some deeper things, all of which were carried by the tall back alone!

As a son and as the direct bloodline of the Chakus family, I should have shared the burden for my father.

Tonight, Hilbert is inevitably sentimental.

Mother Mansha is pleased with her son’s true maturity.

"Hilbert, you have finally grown up. Your father will be proud of you when he sees it. How he wishes he could see this day with his own eyes, this nightmare disease..."

Hilbert suddenly reached out and grabbed his mother's arm, breathing slowly and slightly rapid.

"Mother, my father didn't die of illness!"

The sound was very low, but it was extremely firm.

Seeing his mother showing concern, he also reached out to hold his mother's hand.

"Mother, believe me, I'm not crazy. I'll tell you what I've found after dinner."

Although Corini, sitting next to Mansha, was old, his hearing and vision were always well maintained, and he could also vaguely hear Hilbert's words.

Seeing Chrisman Chakus grow up, he feels more like father and son than master and servant.

So when relatives, friends and guests dispersed one after another in the evening, Corini did not choose to leave, and Hilbert and his mother naturally could not dare to leave the elderly...

In the living room where the coffin was originally placed, the three of them sat by the fireplace. The mothers Mansha and Corini opened their mouths wider, and the worry on their faces became even stronger.

"Child, actually you...you don't need to do this, everything is over..."

Hilbert knew that he didn't believe in him when he saw his mother.

"But, Mother, I came down in person last night, and I saw it with my own eyes, and there were things that emitted foul smell on the ground in the morning. Have you forgotten that it was left by the evil spirits killed by their own hands! They wanted to drag away their father's soul!"

The Baroness was a little worried and even a little scared.

"Hilbert, I'm worried that you did this... The Chakus family is just ordinary nobles, and there is no secret..."

Obviously, Mansha imagined the paint ashes and her son's sleepiness as an adverse reaction caused by her son's inability to withstand the stimulation, which was a bit crazy.

Hilbert was crazy by his mother's distrust, but he didn't know how to convince her. Not to mention that he couldn't use the power of last night for a while, he could use it. Thinking about the sequelae and the pain and fatigue of his body now, the consequences of using it may be very serious.

Moreover, the mysterious man also gave him advice, and this horror may not only have other indescribable hidden dangers in terms of physical fitness.

Old Corini originally held the same view as Mantha and was very worried about Hilbert's current situation. However, when he heard Mantha say that the Chakus family had no secrets, his heart suddenly couldn't help but jumped a few times.

"Madam... Maybe, the Chakus family is not without secrets..."

"What! What?"

Hilbert and his mother made a sound, the former was excited and surprised, while the latter was full of doubt.

Old Corini spent much longer in the Chakus family than Mantha. She grew up with Hilbert's grandfather since childhood. Including the current Hilbert Chakus, she met the 5th generation baron of the Chakus family.

He looked at Mansha with a surprised face, then looked at Hilbert deeply, and the old man seemed to be trapped in memories.

"Madam, the private island of the Chakus family, how long has it been since you returned?"

Mansha thought for a while and said embarrassedly.

"I've been there a few times, once when I married Chrisman, and the next few times I went on vacation. I've been there for seven or eight years."

"Did you know that every year there are dedicated people to maintain the castles on the island?"

Mansha is still clear about this.

"The maintenance of the necessary facilities of the island is entrusted to Barbachs, and £400,000 is allocated to them every year from the Chakus wine estate."

Old Corini nodded with a smile.

"Yes, madam, but you obviously rarely get involved in the accounts of the Chakus family. The maintenance fee has now increased to 700,000 pounds for a year. I have been in charge of this since the 1960s. Even after leaving the Chakus family, Baron..."

The old man paused.

"Chrisman still lets me take charge of this. I live on the island for a while every year..."

He looked at Hilbert and smiled.

"It is also the most important childhood memories for your grandpa and me. When you grow up, you seem to have not been to that island yet."

Hilbert was a little ashamed. The island was too far and too remote. He didn't go to it many times when he was a child. After high school, he didn't even go back home, let alone go to the island. Now he almost forgot what it is like.

Then the old man took a deep breath, and Hilbert and his mother seemed to have a premonition that the following was the main topic of the secret of the Chakus family.

"Every year, one expenditure is for renovation and renovation, and the most important thing is some architectural coatings."

"I have only seen it twice, but if the wall coatings in many parts of the castle are scraped off, the family's emblem will be exposed behind it..."

Family emblem?

Hilbert looked at the sign hanging above the fireplace, the emblem of a lion holding a bead.

I heard what the old man said is so mysterious, but the key is, what can I cover up?

Noting his eyes, Corini smiled mysteriously.

"It's not this one, but another clan emblem of the Chakus family. Perhaps that is the real historical mark of the Chakus family!"

The mysterious and huge pattern, even though I have only seen it twice, Kolini will never forget it for her life.

"That means dawn..."

The servant came over to serve tea and coffee at this time, and the old man kept silent for the time being.

Not far from the seats of the three, Qin Xiaoxia and Su Su sat on the comfortable sofa in a dignified manner, and even the servants gave them tea and refreshments.

"I see."

Qin Xiaoxia took a sip of tea.

“It tastes good!”

Su Su ate two pieces of refreshments and listened to the old man's story with great enthusiasm.

"Teacher, no wonder Hilbert knows nothing!"
