559 A family matter
Dilan had never felt so powerful before and he could really control those black arrows.
It was a good thing he wasn’t here to get resources or make money, because as soon as the black arrows came in contact with one of these creatures, it would disintegrate completely and then the black particules would disappear, probably returning into the Divine energy.
Like any weapon impregnated with an element, the number of black particles inside the blade were numerous enough so that they could reproduce themselves and that was why Phil had told him that he didn’t have to worry and that he could use these black particles as much as he wanted, while reminding him to be careful because they were extremely dangerous.
Dilan really enjoyed this new dungeon and especially this new weapon, and Phil who had seen the difference in power that Dilan was able to use thanks to his weapon, also let him face more creatures.
After the dungeon boss was killed, Dilan refused the magic bag that Phil was handing him when Phil told him that it was his share of the loot, and he said to him: “Honestly Phil, I don’t need it, I already have more money than I need, but on the other hand if you agree, I’ll keep your sword, and I’m sure that it’s still worth much more than all the corpses of the creatures we collected tonight, right?”
Phil didn’t insist because it didn’t matter to him anyway, all that mattered was how many levels Dilan had been able to gain tonight, and he was very pleased with the result.
As he had expected, being able to loot purple dungeons just the two of them was a real boon, as the number of experience points they could earn was considerable.
Phil put the magic bag away and held out his hand to Dilan to help him up, saying: “I already told you, of course you can keep this sword, and as for its value I have no idea about it, these two swords are weapons I won in a tournament when I was still in the world of Titans.”
Dilan got up with Phil’s help, but he immediately staggered, and Phil had to hold him so he wouldn’t fall to the ground.
Phil swore and immediately carried him in his strong arms before spreading his Drakonit wings while saying: “It’s time to go home, the healing potions of legendary grade can’t do anything for mental fatigue, and using the black particles of that sword must have worn you out, but don’t worry, after a night’s sleep you should be fine.”
Dilan who felt like his head was going to explode, let it go and leaned against Phil chest without saying anything, and Phil then got them out of that dungeon at high speed thanks to his Drakonit wings and once outside, he immediately opened a teleportation portal and took Dilan home.
When he arrived, Kelan and Caleb were in the living room playing chess and Kelan immediately turned pale when he saw the state his father was in.
He immediately stood up and before he could say anything, Dilan raised his hand, still with his eyes closed and his head resting on Phil’s chest who had returned to his human form, and he said to him, recognizing Kelan energy: “Son, I’m fine, I just need Ashton’s remedy against mental fatigue.”
Kelan gritted his teeth and glared at Phil before saying: “Okay, wait for me here, I will be right back!”
Kelan instantly disappeared using the prison dimension to teleport to the room in the royal palace where Nolan and Ashton now lived, and probably sensing his presence, his younger brother immediately opened the door and Kelan immediately said to him: “I need Ashton’s remedy… It’s for Dad…”
Nolan frowned but he conjured up several remedies at once in his hand before asking: “What happened? How is Daddy?”
Kelan took the remedies and said before disappearing: “I don’t know, but he was with Phil…Again… Damn, it’s a shame that I’m not powerful enough to beat him up, how could he let our father end up like that!”

When Ashton opened his eyes, suprised to be interrupted, Nolan told him right away: “Sorry my little rabbit, but I have to go to the manor, it’s a family matter, I’ll be back soon so you can keep meditating.”
Ashton nodded and he asked him: “Don’t you need me?”
Nolan shook his head and said while stroking his cheek: “I just wanted to warn you in case you came out of your meditation and didn’t find me in our room… I’ll be right back right my love.”
Ashton then grabbed the collar of his shirt and pulled him toward him to kiss him, before saying: “I’m almost done, so don’t hang around too long!”
A smile appeared on Nolan’s face and after kissing him back he said: “Don’t worry, the next time you opened your eyes, I’ll be right here waiting for you…”
And then, Nolan also used the prison dimension to teleport himself directly to their family’s manor, hoping that in the meantime Kelan had not tried to do anything stupid to Phil.
Fortunately, Caleb had talked to Phil in the meantime and when Kelan returned, he explained to him what had happened.
Kelan didn’t know until now that Phil had this kind of feelings for his father, but after what Caleb had told him it was suddenly obvious to him, and as his father seemed to like hanging out with him, he sighed before telling Phil after his father drank the remedy: “Don’t worry too much, Ashton’s remedy is really very effective, Dad will feel better soon.”
Phil who could already see colors coming back to Dilan’s face was reassured and so he said to them: “Since you are already here, I will let you take care of him for me, I don’t want to disturb your family reunion.”
