I took a Bath and asked Gertrude to bring the flower to the Laboratory that my mother used to make bath salts and some other things with beast parts. I didn't take long to arrive, it was an aggregated room to the Library, it wasn't huge, it was normal in comparison to the latter when I was more little I always thought it was a room full of animal parts in chains and full of bloodied utensils, but to my surprise, it was a clean and ordinated place with samples of plants in jars and stones with strange properties that I have never seen, but never a flower, my mother taught me with Gertrude to read, write and science, hygiene and of course etiquette, and many more, but her was always interested in studying science in a deeper level, the books don't have new information and almost everything is a theory, so it was impossible, I didn't get it, I always thought to make potions or spells you needed some words and runes and obviously materials, what surprised me was she used it to make bath salts and soaps, and never for something weird, but she knew how to use magic perfectly, she thaught me that too and its uses when you merge it with energy or theories of some sciences.

— Well, I guess is time to see what you hide little flower —I took the flower out of the container, the sap of the plant merged with the blood of Tyler maintaining it fresh in some way, I took an injector to extract a little of the sap and put it in a test tube, I put a weak acid in the test tube and it took an amber color, I had to look in some books of Biology, Chemistry, and magic Energy to know what this meant.

— I don't know how those stupid alchemists and Sorcerers do to mix these things without a guide, these humans always complicating things with all this wordiness in their books, never getting to the point.

I was studying for hours and found the connection or better said what the liquid could be if possible it could be used as a catalyst for a certain article and it was more than compatible, It had an exorbitant amount of energy, the sap of the flower had a certain property that increases the energy and stabilizes it.

— It can't be true... Tyler you just gave me what some Demons would kill to have, without the need to become entrapped in a human host or souls, the way to go to the Earth without sacrifice, the only problem is that I still need more materials to make the core for the liquid energy, and more blood to have it completely stabilized, unfortunately, Gertrude and the others already cleaned the blood, Agh, it doesn't matter I can get more blood later. I need a break, maybe go to the city and eat something from Fred. I put on something more discrete and was on my way to the exit when I found someone I didn't expect.

— Hello Darling ¿What are you wearing?

— D-Dad you arrived, I didn't expect you to arrive so early.

— Well, I wanted to give you a surprise and why would I need to notify when I get home —He laughed after that.

— ¿Won't you give your dad a hug? you may be near 18 years now, but that doesn't imply you shouldn't do what I demand as your father ¿Mmmm?— he says while opening his arms.

— Right, glad to see you Dad —I hugged him not before rolling my eyes.

— By the way, I have something for you —He puts his hand in a Bag of greed.

— Is one of Fred apple pies, the ones your mother and you liked so much, but I brought for myself a chocolate cake, I was even thinking of lending Fred a Recipe book of pastries from the Library ¿What do you think? —It is like he read my mind.

— That would be great, more sweets to taste.

— It's good you think that way, why don't we go eat this in the balcony, ¿Where is Gertrude by the way?.

— Remember that she only appears when you call her.

— Oh, right, ¡Gertrude! — She appeared from the shadows in the same way as before, I fucking hate that.

— Hi Gertrude, ¿how did my little Lady behave?.

— Are you seriously going to ask her that... Hmph why I ask.

— It's a pleasure seeing you again M'Lord, Your Daughter behaves correctly as always.

— Good to hear, Mmmm... There is a light scent of blood in the Mansion — Shit, SHIT, SHIT, I forgot Father can do that, He is a Hunter by trade and can track any beast if he is proposed to it, That is how he sometimes Brought materials for Mother and the Dinner, He is a mix between a Beast Kin and a Heretic Demonkin, He got the features from my Grandmother, but the abilities and power of my Grandfather.

— Ah, that was my fault, M'Lord, we asked for a hunter to bring the dinner, and he brought some fresh poultry, but it was dripping some blood on the floor when he brought it back, I ask for your apologies —You just saved us from an interrogatory this time Gertrude, Well done.

— Oh, don't worry about it, Sometimes I miss the scent of blood when I Hunt, but I would like if you prepared us a table in the balcony, so we can eat there.

— Right away Sir.

— I hope you didn't get bored these days.

— Eh, no, it was entertaining I think. —We reached the Balcony and the Table was ready, we could see the city from here and the Walls surrounding it.

— Ok, Darling, let's eat —There was something weird today, My father always talked when eating, even if it was to complain about some moron doing bad his job, but today, he was silent, this gives me a bad feeling, he even has that serious look of his.

— Dad, ¿is there something wrong?

— Actually I need to tell you something about your Mother.
