MERCIA
79. Pure Proxima Blood.

August looked at Valery in turn.

"Rafael what do you mean."

"August me. um. You go with Valery, he can explain everything better."

"Well, next time tell me, I'm still your old friend" August said, patting Rafael on the shoulder.

"Mercia we go to Royan."

August and Valery leave Rafael.

"Where are you going?" hedya asked uncomfortable to see August and Valery go together.

"I have business in Royan, I'll be right back" August said.

"I didn't bring any equipment, I'm going home to get it."

Hedya was dissatisfied with the answer, but she kept trying to hide her anger.

"Hurry back, I need your help here Valery" said Hedya and left.

"I think he's jealous I'm going with you" Valery said.

"You don't talk nonsense, now tell me what's up?"

"not here."

Lyra created a special portal located not far from the temple gate, making it easier for all if they want to return to their respective places. August and Valery entered the portal, and in an instant they arrived at a small alley between two three-story buildings.

"Is it safe to appear suddenly in this place" asked August.

"that particular portal will choose a safe place, I don't know how, maybe you can ask Lyra directly."

The two of them walked towards the city park where Valery parked his car.

"get in quickly" Valery said.

August gets in the car. "Where are we going?"

"To my house."

Not much was spoken of on the way, August just fell asleep, Valery let him rest. About ninety minutes later they arrived at a two-story house. Valery wakes August.

"Mercia.., we've arrived."

August rubbed his eyes. "I'm sorry I fell asleep."

"it's okay, you look tired, I let you fall asleep."

"This is your house?"

"Yes.. What do you think?"

"Unique. like the guy."

"Hahaha, let's go inside."

They both went into the house.

"think home, grab a few drinks, I'll meet you soon and talk."

"good."

August walked to pick up soft drinks from behind the refrigerator, he observed the photos hanging on the wall one by one. Valery small to grow up, to become a police officer. after a while August smelled the fragrance he turned his body, and as his heart beat, his eyes barely blinked as Valery descended the stairs wearing only a bathrobe, his hair wet and dripping with water. he carried a wooden box with both hands.

"Help me bring this crate."

August immediately approached Valery and took the wooden crate from his hand.it appeared that two lumps wanted to jump out when Valery slightly bent over when handing over the box made August swallow.

'focus. focus..' August said in his heart.

Sitting on the living room couch, August puts a wooden crate on the table.

"You know Nora's guarding the Lockhart family property?" ask Valery.

"I don't know, but I don't mind."

"about two weeks ago, there was a family that was interested in living in that house, they wanted to rent to live there. After discussing, everyone agreed to let them rent, sorry we didn't involve you."

"no problem."

"Nora told Rafael to vacate the house, some of the items were sold at auction and the proceeds were donated."

"I agree."

"Without Rafael accidentally finding something in the house that was very surprising."

"Something?"

Valery opened the wooden crate and took out a document and handed it to August.

"Rafael found this."

August read the document, he was a little surprised.

"True. now look at this!" Valery handed me the other documents.

"do you know?"

"it's just a blood sample report" August said.

"i don't understand."

"This blood sample is not from humans in general."

August jerks. "You want to say that Julia is a hybrid?"

"At first Rafael hesitated, he wasn't sure because he knew Julia so well, he called me to ask me to help investigate."

"Why didn't he ask Hedya for help?"

"I asked him the same question, he assumed that I understood hybrids better."

"I agree with him."

Valery smile.

"After I investigated, it turned out that Julia wasn't a hybrid."

"So you're just saying that Julia's not the Lockhart family's son?"

"Mercia, I'm not done talking. Julia has pure Proxima blood."

"What?"

"No way, he doesn't have any power."

"I pretended to be looking for an excuse to get a blood sample from Lyra and Carrol to compare, but it was very much different, which is why I called it pure Proxima."

"Mercia when you came back, you said you visited three worlds, I think most likely Julia wasn't from Proxima either."

August couldn't believe hearing Valery's words.

"How can you be sure of everything you say?"

"This sample of blood is in an envelope, in that envelope I found some numbers, after I investigated them, they are coordinates, they are coordinates, I went to that place and found this wooden crate."

August observed the wooden coffin that looked very old.

"I brought this chest to the laboratory, the result was nothing that matched all the types of wood on earth, even though it was made of wood, the level of hardness exceeded that of steel."

"How did you open it?"

"I had a hybrid friend who was able to open it, when he opened it his energy drained and he fell unconscious from exhaustion."

"Look at the contents."

August took a roll of paper that already looked brown, he opened it, a writing with strange letters.on the top of the paper there is a logo or symbol of a dragon that is circular.

"I don't know what this is" said August.

"So does Lyra and Carrol." Valery added.

"I don't know what this is all about" said August.

"Mercia, Rafael doesn't want to say this to you, he's afraid to open your wounds."

"i understand, I respect him."

August walked closer to the window, he looked out blankly.

'is there another world? where did you come from Julia? if you were still alive, we would have looked for him together, August said in his heart.

"Mercia's next up to you, you can either pull this off or you want to figure out who Julia really is."

"I know this won't bring her back to you, but if you decide to find out, your only clue is this token."

"my friend who opened this wooden crate did not understand the contents of the writing on the paper roll, but he understood the meaning of the writing behind this token because both were written in different languages, this writing means princess of the dragons."

August as in the lightning strike heard him, his emotions began to mix.

"What did you say?"

"Daughter of the dragons."

August immediately sat back down next to Valery, he picked up the token with trembling hands, he saw the wooden token was a six-square the size of an adult's palm, seen carving two dragons coiling each other, he also flipped the token, an inscription with strange letters.

"Mercia you know something."

August smiled, "i'm not sure yet but I know what this writing means."

"Valery I'm so grateful for your efforts, it means so much to me, I don't know how I can repay you."

"You can visit my special holding room."

Glug. August gulped back.

"Se. se..corals?"
