"Brother, don't persuade me anymore. After so many years in the Quickley family, I feel tired, too. I just want to live peacefully now. Nevertheless, you are still my brother."
Salim then took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket, "Sister, I have got some money. Take it."
"No brother, I can't have it."
"Listen to me." Salim forced the money into Grace's hand, "I know you have little savings. Money is needed everywhere in the capital for living. Where can you and Garfield stay tonight if without money? Be thoughtful for Garfield."
Hearing that, Grace accepts the money eventually. As a mother, she couldn't let her children suffer.
"Thank you, brother."
"No problem. Just come to me if you have any difficulties in the future. If I am not around, go and meet Aubrey. Don't strain yourself. "
"I will." Grace nodded. Her eyes were moist.
On the side, Aubrey looked at her younger brother curiously, "Garfield, why do I feel that you are different from before?"
"I am not. Maybe it is your illusion," Garfield said with a smile. He didn't look sad leaving the Quickley family.
"You are really different now. You are much more confident than before. In the past, you were submissive in front of me and didn't dare to say anything."
"Because you are too attractive. I was shy to speak when I looked at you."
Aubrey is indeed a textbook beauty, a complete stunner. At the age of eighteen, her body figure is already looking stunning. Particularly her slender and graceful legs.
Aubrey was blushing, "How dare you to flirt with me."
"No, I didn't."
Seeing both Garfield and Aubrey joking around, Grace smiled and felt much relieved from her depression.
"Garfield, let's go."
Grace and Garfield then walked towards the street crowd.
Grace didn't feel sad when she left the Quickley family. Apart from worrying about Garfield's future, she felt more relaxed instead.
Now, the first thing for them was to find a place to live.
Arriving at House Deed Exchange, this is the place in the entire capital where houses are bought and sold.
Seeing the housing prices on the bulletin board, Grace couldn't help but feel helpless."
In the capital, where every inch of land was precious, the housing prices were exorbitant. The most expensive one can cost over a million silver coins, covering several acres. Typically, even the more modest ones cost 10,000 silver coins. Finally, Grace found some houses that were only a few thousand silver coins at the bottom of the bulletin board.
These houses are located on the west side of the capital and are generally where common folks live.
Even so, if it weren't for the silver coins given by Salim, they could barely afford the cheapest one among them.
Finally, after looking at several houses, Grace decided to buy a house in West City for 6,000 silver coins.
The house is small, but it is clean and has a small yard.
After a long day, they finished cleaning the house. By this time, it was already night.
"Garfield, it's getting late. Go to bed early."
Grace asked her son to go to sleep after the dinner.
"Alright."
Garfield nodded.
After Garfield went into his room, Grace looked around the house and sighed faintly. She decided to look for a job. Otherwise, relying solely on the remaining silver coins, they wouldn't be able to sustain for long.
Besides, Garfield still needed to practice.
It is said that civil costs are low but military costs are high. It would be hard for him to catch up with his classmates.
Garfield did not rest after he went into his room. He sat down with his legs crossed.
"I swear to make the Quickley family pay double the price for the humiliation my mother had endured. They will regret it sooner or later for driving us out."
Garfield was in deep thought, "The college tests are just a few more days away. Now I have to quickly enhance my strength, awaken my bloodline before the test. Without bloodline awakening, I can never reach the peak like what I did in the past life. Revenging would be even more impossible!"
Garfield understands the importance of bloodline better than any warrior in the country.
"But what do I need to do to have a greater chance of awakening my bloodline?"
Thoughts kept popping up in Garfield's mind, including various methods to enhance the awakening of the bloodline.
"I got it!"
Soon, Garfield thought of a way.
The next morning, Garfield asked his mother for a thousand silver coins and headed to the herbs market. He bought some herbs and made several bottles of gray-brown medicinal liquid.
This kind of medicinal liquid is called Blood Awakening Medicinal Liquid. It is a very popular medicinal liquid in the martial realm and cannot be found in Quewyn.
If a warrior is unable to awaken his bloodline due to his naturally thin bloodline, then this medicine can stimulate the bloodline concentration in the body. Therefore, it increases the chance of bloodline awakening.
Usually, the bloodline will be awakened after using the medicine unless there is no bloodline at all in the body.
In the following days, Garfield practiced hard and took the medicine every day.
During this whole period, Garfield only stopped practicing when Aubrey came.
Five days later, Garfield finished the Blood Awakening Medicinal Liquid.
Garfield, who was practicing with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them.
"It's time to awaken the bloodline in my body!"
The Bloodline Sanctuary is a very majestic building in Quewyn. It is not inferior to the Hall of Artifacts and even surpasses it in grandeur.
It was already noon when Garfield arrived at the Bloodline Sanctuary. The entrance to the Bloodline Sanctuary was crowded, making it very lively.
Most of them were warriors wearing armor with extraordinary aura. There were also some youngsters about the same age as Garfield, who entered the Bloodline Sanctuary along with their parents.
Garfield knew they were here to awaken their bloodline as well.
Skystar College is the top academy in Qeuwyn. Annually, they will invite blood masters from the Bloodline Sanctuary to the academy to conduct bloodline awakening.
For those ordinary youngsters in the capital who have never been admitted to Skytar College, Bloodline Sanctuary is the place for them to awaken their bloodline.
Although the cost of hiring a Blood Master is extremely high, some ordinary families would spare no expense when it comes to their children's future.
Looking at the familiar symbol of the Bloodline Sanctuary, Garfield sighed deeply in his heart. Eventually, he looked determined, and he stepped into the Bloodline Sanctuary.
