Chapter 10: Flamel's Descendant?

        Galahad stared at the 3-floor structure. He can feel awe and appreciation rising within his body. Not because the establishment is beautiful or imposing in a grand majestic way. The building was ugly, old, and not maintained. It was dilapidated.

There's nothing worth admirable within the establishment. It looks haunted and something wasn't that someone would think to live in this place. But different from the situation of this structure, someone was living in the house.

Before going here, he made sure to gather information by listening to the rumors from the people. According to the rumors, there was someone who was living in this place.

Someone who claimed himself as Nicholas Flamel's descendant. Of course, Nowadays people don't know Nicholas Flamel. And those few people who did, Galahad had heard the self-proclaimed descendant being insulted.

Like the Ancestor, the descendant was the same as the person's ancestor.

It is mere hogwash.

If what the people said was true that a person was living here and that person wasn't lying about his self-claims, Galahad can't waste this opportunity. Approaching the doors of the structure, Galahad knocked his hands on the door several times.

Knock

   Knock

       Knock

Knock

   Knock

       Knock

Knock

   Knock

      Knock

   Galahad then stopped knocking on the door. He was also thankful that the door didn't give out. After a while, Galahad can hear footsteps inside approaching the door. The door opened slightly with a squeaky creak and someone inside peered at him.

A lone amber eye peaked at him with a glare.

" Who are you? "

The person asked with a bored tone before the person continued.

" If you are someone sent to collect my debt by Duke Morny, I am afraid that I can't pay my debt. I haven't still managed to find my ancestor's philosopher's stone. "

The Galahad eye's lit up when he heard those familiar words. Smiling gently and looking min threatening as possible, he replied.

" Monsieur, I am not familiar with Duke Morny and I am not someone who comes here to collect a debt. I was interested in your family's Alchemy. "

" You're not a debt collector? "

The door opened more widely than before, and now Galahad can see the person better than before. And see something other than his eye peeking inside the door.

Seeing his face full, Galahad can tell that the person was beautiful. If he hasn't heard the person's voice before, Galahad would think of him as a girl.

The person has beautiful golden hair tied into a ponytail. He was dressed in tattered brown robes.

Smiling faintly, Galahad answered the inquiry.

" I am not a debt collector Mr. Flamel. "

" Then who are you? "

The Alchemist's descendants asked of him with a raised eyebrow. Galahad replied.
