Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Chapter 407: Too Late

”Honey, whatʼs going on? Why did that girl call you ʼElyʼ?” Reever asked as soon as he walked into the kitchen.

”Argghh!” Lisa started pacing back and forth with a lot of worries written on her face.

”Honey, can you answer me please,” Reever asked.

”This is troublesome. Very troublesome,” Lisa said. ”If my family find out Iʼm alive, they will come back for me. No, I donʼt want to go back there. I left everything behind already.”

”Are you… from a noble family?” Reever asked. ”Did I marry a noble girl?”

”What? Thereʼs no time to be thinking about that. You have bigger problems now,” the girl said.

Reever took that as a ʼyesʼ. ”Oh lord, I married into a noble family,” he said with a stunned expression. ”Haha, Father, Mother! Look at how well your child is doing.”

Lisa looked back with an annoyed expression.

”Lisa, tell me. Which family are you from? Howard? Manners? Russels?” Reever asked. ”Whatʼs your surname?”

”Itʼs Skulls,” Lisa said with an annoyed face.

Reever nodded his head when he got the answer, but when he thought about it, he stopped. ”Wait, no thatʼs my surname.”

”And I married you. What else do you want me to say?” Lisa asked.

”Your family name. The noble familyʼs name,” he asked.

”Did you not listen to me? I left my family. I no longer consider them as my family,” Lisa said.

”But you said they would come back for you, right? Isnʼt that why you donʼt want to let them know?” he asked.

”Yes, and thatʼs a big problem,” Lisa said.

”Do you have bad blood with your family?” Reever asked in a serious voice.

”I… kind of. I have bad blood with 2 people, but my relationship wasnʼt that bad with the others,” Lisa said. ”But that was then. I donʼt know how many people would hate me now and they will rejoice to see me in pain.”

”What sort of family is that?” Reever asked.

Just then, Ning walked in through the door. ”I came to inform that the girl is leaving the city today and says she is going to go report you to your family,” Ning said.

”Dammit, I knew it,” Lisa said.

”Honey, it doesnʼt matter. Anything that comes at us, we two can handle it together,” Reever said.

”Donʼt you see, dear?” Lisa said. ”The first thing they do after they find me is separate us. They wonʼt be able to tolerate me being married to you.”

”What? They canʼt do that. What will they do? Make us divorce each other?” Reever asked with a scoff in his voice.

”No,” Lisa said. ”They will kill you. They will kill you and hide all existence of our marriage. I am just a tool to make connections for them. I… oh god, we need help.”

”Do you want to deal with the girl?” Ning asked. ”If she forgets this ever happened, then you will be safe.”

”What? Can that be done?” Lisa asked suspiciously.

”I know how,” Ning said. ”And donʼt worry, the girl wonʼt have any problems afterward.”

”If you can, then please do so,” Lisa said. ”In the meanwhile, letʼs go find Uncle. He is the only one who would know what to do in this situation.”

Ning nodded and left the place. He quickly made his way back to the hotel to find the girl.

ʼWhat room is she in?ʼ he thought and tried to find a number. Just then, he saw her in the lobby, seemingly doing nothing there.

ʼThat was easy,ʼ he thought and walked up to her.

The butler saw Ning coming towards her and immediately got in front of protecting her. However, before he could even do anything, the butler felt unable to move or even speak.

His eyes showed full worry as the girl hadnʼt even realized what was happening.

”Relax, Iʼm not going to hurt her,” Ning said when he got close. He placed his hands on her head, and only then did she realize someone was there.

”What the—” before she could even finish sentence, she was dominated. Just to be safe, Ning dominated the butler too and let him free.

”Master!” they both called him.

”Listen up, forget that you ever met Lisa, or as you call her Ely. Do not reveal this information to anyone else,” he ordered them.

”Yes master,” they said.

”Good,” Ning said and was about to turn around when the girl spoke.

”But master, I have already told people about it,” she said.

”What?” Ning asked in surprise. He looked around to see if someone was there in the lobby and asked, ”Who?”

”My father, master,” she said.

”Your… father? Is he here too?” Ning asked.

”No, I messaged him through the telephone in the hotel lobby,” she said.

”You te— shit! There are telephones here?” Ning asked and turned around to find one in the hotel lobby.

ʼDammit, I canʼt do anything about that,ʼ he thought. There was no point in making the two do anything anymore, so he let them go, but kept the domination.

He turned around and walked away from the hotel lobby. He made his way to the tailor where Lisa and Reever shouldʼve gone to right now.

He saw them talking with the boss and walked up to them. ”Iʼm sorry guys, but she already called back home and told her father about you,” Ning said.

Lisa saw the world leave her for a moment. ”No, this canʼt be happening,” she said.

”It seems you have no choice but to embrace it now. Your family will come sooner or later to find you. Itʼs better if you go to them first,” the boss said.

”But what about him? They will kill him, wonʼt they? The girl asked.

”Do you have that little faith in your own family?” the boss asked, but then suddenly remembered something and said, ”Sorry, I forgot.”

”Anyway, he is why you should go back yourself. Make a public return with this young man so that they have no way of hiding his existence after you return,” the boss said.

Lisa thought about it for a moment and asked,” Is that really the only way?”

Reever had nothing to say in what she was thinking as he had no understanding of the gravity of the situation.

”Iʼm afraid so, my child,” the boss said with a heavy sigh.
