It took time for Blake and I to return after roaming around the pack. Thus, upon hearing what Arthur said, the three of us went to the poison house without wasting another moment. Unsurprisingly, when we arrived there, my father was already waiting for us inside.
The room was dim but I could already see the changes in his appearance compared to the last time I saw him.
"Your condition improved a lot," Blake commented the moment he saw my father. Indeed, my father looked considerably healthier. I secretly let out a sigh of relief.
"Yes," my father replied. "I thought I would never have a chance to live again. This is all thanks to you, Dr. Arthur," he added.
Although my father was talking to Arthur, as he spoke, his eyes were directed at me, making me feel a little uneasy.
Beside me, Arthur smiled awkwardly. He scratched his head before saying with a slightly sheepish voice, "N-no problem... no problem... It was my job to do it."
Blake watched the exchange without much expression on his face. He casually commented, "The Silver pack successfully disintegrated the power of your opponents. As for your brother, I did not hurt him too much... but he should not be able to pose any threat to the Red Moon pack, at least in the meantime."
My father, who looked like he aged ten years in just a few days, nodded at Blake. "I understand," he told him. "This time, it's all because of your help that we managed to survive this ordeal."
"To thank you, I prepared something as a token of gratitude." After saying those words, my father stood up and went over to the safe behind the painting.
Arthur's eyes lit up instantly. He pushed me with his shoulders before giving me a wink as if to say: Finally, I don't have to worry about what the passcode is!
Arthur's signal made me more aware of the situation too. With intensity, I stared at my father's hand as he entered the passcode of the safe.
But after seeing the passcode, my heart skipped a beat. That passcode... wasn't it my birthday?!
I fell into a great shock. Why would my father… someone who didn't even wish to be my father… use my birthday as the passcode of one the most important safes in the pack? I was so confused… I could not understand the reason why.
Seeing the changes in my face, Arthur asked me in a low voice, "So what does that string of numbers mean?" I frowned and did not answer. No, at that time, I could not give him an answer.
My father, who was oblivious to our exchange, took a small vial out of the safe and handed it to Blake.
"Take this on the night of the full moon," he instructed. Blake took the medicine and nodded.
My father looked at Blake seriously. He told him, "King Bluke, although this will help detoxify you, I still owe you a favor.
If you have any request, I will try my best in order to repay the favor."
Indeed, father owed Blake not only for the safety of the Red Moon Pack. He also owed Blake and the Silver Pack for the antidote to his poison and for helping them deal with their enemies.
Blake heard my father's words but he did not give him an answer.
Seeing that Blake did not speak, my father continued, "Vanessa's inauguration ceremony will be held again in three days. I hope that you can stay and continue to participate in this important event."
How ironic! The pack was recently attacked and has yet to recover. Yet they were already planning on going ahead and continuing with Vanessa's inauguration ceremony?
"Would you look at that... He can't wait to see his little daughter on the top!" Arthur murmured in a low voice.
My father looked in Arthur's direction. Arthur's eyes widened and he immediately shut up.
