My Space-Time System

581 Father and children relationship.

Although Aurelius had failed to capture Blake, part of his plan was to inject his aura into Blake. This way, even if he managed to escape, he would leave a spatial trail that would lead them to the League's hideout.

What he hadn't expected was that Blake wouldn't go straight to the moving base. Instead, Blake went into his pocket dimension that hid his presence and temporarily severed the connection with the spatial trail so far he didn't leave.

"It's a good thing you informed me before returning to the base." Dorian said as he walked out of the spatial corridor Blake had created. He went straight to the mark at Blake's back before placing his hand on it.

"An operation involving the Emperor, 2 councillors and their high-rank family members. The Synder empire is surely out to get us." Dorian let out a wry smile as he slowly pulled back his hand, extracting a thin icy blue aura from Blake's body. This took care of the tracking as well as the freezing effects.

"Thanks." Blake said as he put his black shirt back on and stood up.

With his condition returning to normal, and the mission being concluded as a failure, Blake couldn't help but ask "What next?"

"Maximus is either dead or about to be executed after torturing and interrogation. All we can do is report the situation to Dad." Dorian replied in an impassive tone.

Although Dorian was trying to hide it, Blake could feel a trace of sadness in his voice; but since there was nothing he could do about it, Blake turned his attention to the most important problem at the moment.

"If they read his mind, wouldn't they be able to discover the location of the hideout?" Blake asked in a bothered tone.

"As you already know, the base is constantly on the move and no one except for I and Dad knows its current location at any given time. Also, the hideout possesses anti-divination abilities; however, none of these would stop them if you directly led them into the hideout." Dorian strayed a little bit before returning to the question. "The only thing they would be able to learn is that it is a moving base, but they should have already guessed that by now."

Hearing his explanation, Blake asked. "If the base is constantly on the move, then how am I able to warp into the hideout at will."

"The base uses spatial magic, so even if it is on the move, what you are warping into is the spatial coordinates of it's spatial space which remains constant." Dorian explained.

"Oh" Blake didn't know why, but he felt that the League's base was on par with that of Azkelwart.

With everything concluded, both of them returned to the base to make sure nothing was wrong, before warping back to the peak of the mountain where Cassius stayed.

Seeing his sons returning with their shoulders low, Cassius asked. "How did it go?"

Blake returned to his position in the formation as Dorian took off his mask and began sharing the memory of what happened.

After he was done, Cassius finally spoke. "It seems your recent attacks hurt their pride, but apart from that, this is quite interesting."

"What do you mean?" Blake and Dorian were confused.

"You didn't see your friend using purple flames?" Cassius asked causing Blake's eyes to widen in realization.

During the fight, Luciano and Castiel were no threat to him, and they didn't try to attack him, so he didn't much attention to them.

"Seems like Synder gave him his inheritance." Dorian said.

"Exactly..." Cassius confirmed.

"Why Cassius? Couldn't he have given it to any of his direct descendants?" Blake was both confused and worried.

"He possesses the darkness element, so by giving him stronger flames, they plan on creating a replacement for you. Also, since this was a body for Valerius, no one would want their direct descendants in harm's way." Cassius explained.

"Can't we save him?!" Blake couldn't help but ask. contemporary romance

"One of the reasons we couldn't save you earlier than this is because there was a royal knight following you even during your mission in the desert. Your detainment was the perfect time for us since there was no point leaving an Angel with you in one of the safest places in Calton."

"The same goes for him now that he is a future host for Valerius. The only difference is that they have deployed even more people to watch over him. They surely don't want anything to go wrong with him." Cassius' explanation made Blake even more worried, so he had to calm him down.

"Nonetheless, we will be on the constant lookout to save him, especially since it would affect Valerius' plan." Cassius reassured him.

"What if we are unable to save him, what do we now do?" Dorian asked an important question that made Blake turn back to Cassius.

Not bothered by the timing of the question, Cassius answered. "They have no idea that Blake has a 4th element, so he wouldn't be a threat even during the war."

"Alright… If that is all, I shall return to the base and announce Maximus' death." Dorian said as he put on his mask and warped out of the mountain.

"He is even sadder than I expected." Blake stated as Dorian left.

"95% of all members of the League were all maltreated young talents rejected by the Synder empire. Dorian was the one that picked them up from the streets, trained them and gave them revenge and a purpose."

"They are not just comrades or members of his organization; they are more like his children." Cassius explained, giving Blake a greater insight into Dorian's pain.

"I know you haven't spoken about it, but I am sorry for going there even with all the dangers. I could have ruined your plans." Blake apologized.

"You don't have to apologize, I would have done the same if I were in your shoes. Besides, if you were captured I would have been in Synder empire by now teaching them a lesson." Cassius said with a proud smile as he ruffled Blake's black hair.

(AN: His natural hair colour right now is white, but when using the darkness element or in the darkness formation it changes to black.)

Something massive is coming, hence I am trying not to rush things because I am afraid of making more mistakes.
