Carefully opening the ugly-looking gift box, Leo then discovered a necklace. Holding it closer to his face, he started to observe how it looked like closely.

The necklace was silver in color and has a shield as its pendant, and it wasn\'t also the type of necklace usually sold in a jewelry shop either. It was more like Magic equipment or that sort of stuff, maybe?

Well, since his Master gifted it, then it must be something really important, right?

After observing the necklace for a while, Leo then put it on top of his study table before he went to the bathroom to take his nightly bath and afterwards went to bed to sleep.

.....

Right after Leo went to sleep, just right after the time Butler Xiao and Fatty Ben finally returned back to Heart city, the latter quickly bid farewell to the former as he excused himself to go somewhere important.

Inside a dark foggy forest nearby Heart city, Fatty Ben slowly made his way within until he finally arrived in a place with a gravestone covered by a dense amount of grasses in the middle. At this point, the grasses were already so tall that it had already almost covered the entire gravestone itself.

If Fatty Ben didn\'t know that there was actually a gravestone in this place, then he wouldn\'t have noticed anything at all.

Putting his hand up in front, Fatty Ben then slowly began cutting down the grass using the big grass scissors he had bought along with him.

"First Young Master, your brother seems to finally find his way back from his lonely road. He had already made more friends and companions this time around, too. If you are still with us, then surely you will also be proud of him, right?" Fatty, Ben silently said while cutting down the tall grasses.

Afterwards, Fatty Ben took out a brush as he began wiping the gravestone soon after, finally revealing the name of the gravestone.

Reinhart Heart... Leo\'s older brother. A name with 2 hearts which was explained by their parents to simply express that aside from giving his other heart to his future wife, he would always have another one reserved for his younger brother and the other people within his life.

Unfortunately, Reinhart didn\'t long live enough to even love a woman, since he had died while returning from his journey. So, his other heart seems like it would still remain longing for a woman to love till this very moment.

It was really a tragic story on how an older brother that dearly loves his younger brother hurriedly made his way back to save the latter from the devastation, but only to meet his end along the journey.

If this world had a God, then they sure were cruel for doing such a thing in the two brother\'s life. Not only did the younger one lost his parents at such a young age, but he had unfortunately also lost his only remaining family member, his older brother, the moment he felt the hope of his return.

Since there was nobody to mourn for, and because Leo doesn\'t want to make any memento related to them due to seemingly in denial about their deaths. Hence, Fatty Ben could only pitifully make a gravestone by himself to remember the first person he was loyal to, Reinhart Heart.

"Do you know, First Young Master, your younger brother already had 4 beautiful girls living along with him, hahaha. Something even you can\'t hope to compare to since you had not found any for yourself, hahaha!" While laughing, Fatty Ben suddenly began shedding tears of sadness.

"Hink! Why did you die? No, the question should be, who really killed you? Elizabeth Snow, the person that we had long been suspected as the one that killed you, seems to be innocent. The Young Master even kept her in his villa, treating her really well, something that the real killer wouldn\'t surely be able to receive from the Young Master!"

"Who... Who really killed you? You saved me when I was lost, so I paid it back by saving your younger brother from being lost too. But, how can I pay you for the new life you\'ve given me now? You\'re already gone!"

Fatty Ben can\'t help remembering his past.

Everything started in a street in one particular place of Silver city in the early days of the Silver Kingdom\'s establishment, where people of different kinds could be found. In particular, Wanted men, Drug Syndicates, Slave Traders, and different, more kinds of people with dark and wicked nature.

In such kind of place, peace seems to be like an unreachable paradise, since no one living in that dark street could hope to experience such sort of thing.

Moreover, clouds up above this street seem darker than the other places, too. Like it portrays how dark and cold the street really was.

That was the place that Fatty Ben had been born to. A really unfit place for a young child. Cruel beyond cruel or dark beyond the dark, the Underground.

Actually, Fatty Ben\'s parents had abandoned him in the Underground world of Silver city, treating him as if he didn\'t come from their own.

However, everything had changed when Reinhart found Fatty Ben. It was like Reinhart was a bringer of paradise, saving him from such a dark place.

Suddenly, the dark sky suddenly became covered with dark clouds, which raindrops soon after came pouring down, drenching Fatty Ben and seems as if the Heavens were also expressing grief along with him.

"You... How dare you even grieve with me?! This was all your fault from the very beginning..." Fatty Ben suddenly yelled out while staring full of hate towards the raining sky.

"If only you didn\'t transport us, Humans, on this godforsaken place, for no explanation or reason at all, then my First Young Master wouldn\'t have died. Not just him. Their parents wouldn\'t have died, too!"

"I don\'t really know how life was back on Earth, but I\'m sure that they would have lived a complete life, like those rich people I\'ve read in books about Earth. With nothing to worry about aside from their own family, and not a whole city worth of Humans!"

"They would have been busy too, raising their business to a greater height on Earth, unlike here where they had to sacrifice their very own lives just to protect the unworthy Humans!"

"Also, Young Master Leo would have been one of the most admired people by the people on Earth. Showered by numerous amounts of admiration and attention, where a lot of people could only be jealous about as they envied his genius capability. Unlike here, where he had been changed in such a ruthless way. Eyes like those cold machines, a life that had killed countless of lives, and standing on the top of a mountain made out of Humans corpses."

"Do you know, First Young Master, your younger brother doesn\'t even blink his eyes while killing someone like he almost doesn\'t feel any sort of emotions at all, even fear seems like an unfamiliar emotion to him."

(Author\'s Note: Reference for the line "fear seems like an unfamiliar emotion to him" would be at that time back in the Yellow Forest. Leo didn\'t even feel any sort of fear or such, but only to be cautious in his every movement. Not because he was afraid to die, but because he needed to keep on living to have his revenge!)

"Yes, a while ago, too! He seems to not know how to express his happiness on such a joyous occasion. It\'s like the emotion called happiness for him had long become too foreign for him to the point he doesn\'t even know how to express it."

"However, he was just the same as the both of your parents, he was only doing everything that way in order to protect every unworthy Human like us living within his territory. It\'s really unfair, how did we even receive such a Lord with such a big heart, and sadly our Lord himself doesn\'t even receive any despite all of his sacrifices!"

"Ha! It seems like I\'m lost within my words once again... I apologize for such shameful behavior, First Young Master." Fatty Ben said as he scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Oh, I\'m already done, hehehe... Then, I\'ll be going now, First Young Master! I\'ll come to visit you once again when I have the spare time to visit you." Fatty Ben bid farewell as he slowly stood up.

Seemingly out of a sudden, right after Fatty Ben stood up from being half sat, a letter suddenly came falling down from the sky as it then slowly landed right on the top of the gravestone.

"Huh? What is this?" Fatty Ben can\'t help but asked himself as he moved his hand to take the letter.

While looking at the letter, Fatty Ben soon after opening it to read its content. For a letter to suddenly fall on the top of the gravestone, and seems like in purpose too, it obviously only implies that the letter was either intended for him or for his First Young Master. However, since his First Young Master was already long dead, then it only implies that the letter was for him. So, he went to open it to read its content.

"The handwriting seems to be familiar..." Fatty Ben wasn\'t able to finish his words as he suddenly unconsciously let go of the letter, causing it slowly fall down to the ground.

Swiftly though, Fatty Ben hurriedly went to pick it up again as he began reading the content soon after.

The more Fatty Ben read, the more his face became unrecognizable. The emotion that he was currently feeling right now was a mix of joy and shock, or could also be described simply as; he doesn\'t know how to express it.

After reading the letter, Fatty Ben can\'t help but take a step back, since the letter seems to be too much for him to handle. As he continued stepping back, he suddenly stumbled upon a stone, causing him to fall down to the ground and the letter falling just right beside him. Showing to his peripheral vision exactly the only word that seems to explain a really unbelievable thing.

"From, Reinhart..."

"This is impossible! Is Heaven making a prank on me to somewhat comfort me? If you are, then this is not funny!" Fatty Ben exclaimed, expressing his boiling anger. Contrary to what his expressing thought, he was actually feeling excited with a mix of disbelief and shock inside.

Suddenly, Fatty Ben went to grab the letter before quickly running away from the gravestone. While running, a smile suddenly formed on his face, while holding tightly onto the letter, seemingly as if losing it would cause the end of the world for him.

Right after Fatty Ben left, a bird that seemingly looked like a Mail Bird but also too different from the Mail Bird flew down as it then slowly landed while facing the gravestone.

This Magical Beast was almost the same as the Mail Bird, the only difference was its body was big unlike the usual birds, black in color like those of a raven, and has a golden-colored pupil, seemingly looking like it has pure gold as its eyes.

If a person with a lot of knowledge about Magical Beast was here, it would have immediately recognized this Magical Beast. This was one of the birds of myths, Phoenix, specifically called as the Black Phoenix in the Celestial World.

Soon after the Black Phoenix landed on the ground, it moved its head forward a little as if trying to read the words written on the gravestone. Afterwards, it showed a somewhat smirking-like face, before it flew up back on the air and letting out a ball made out of lightning towards the gravestone.

*Bang!

The lightning ball immediately blew up the gravestone into pieces to the point that it looked like no gravestone was ever present in this area before.

After doing that, the Black Phoenix immediately flew away from the place.

"Kraaaaa!"
