Chapter 604
In the video, the man reced the external shell with thetest materials and added all the updated
features so that Nichs was able to release all the air cushions in it within a few seconds before filling
them up with air. He chose the materials for the cushions, tested its strength, and ran all the other tests
personally, as if he was taking care of his own child.
With the use of his god-like skills, he upgraded all of Nichs’ systems and improved all its abilities
within a single day. However, the man in the video never revealed his appearance even until the very
end. He either wore goggles or a face mask used for his work while he buried his head in work without
ever looking up.
Nichs said, “Daddy, I’m a really amazing smart-robot. Uncle Linus said that his brother was the one
who upgraded me, so you can’t throw me out, alright?”
Michael stroked the robot’s head as he zoned out while looking at the video… Who is Linus’ brother?
Could it be Fass? Why would Linus pass this camera footage to Nichs? What was he trying to say?
Although he didn’t understand what Linus was trying to do, Nichs indeed proved itself useful the
other day. Both the Fletchers and the military were extremely interested in it. The materials used to
provide it the ability to duplicate its own surroundings before camouging and disappearing within it
left them speechless. Caleb even phoned over a few times in an attempt to get some information; his
words made it sound like he wanted to borrow Nichs for his own research.
Michael used all sorts of excuses to decline his requests. The special materials belonged to the military
department under the Michel Group, and it hadn’t been released to the public, so it had to be kept private
for the time being. Yet, Linus was generous enough to use it on Nichs; he even kept Nichs after
everything…
Nichs’ screen returned to an image of its two, round pupils once the video finished ying. It then
reached its metallic hand out and smacked its own tummy before pulling a box out of it. “Daddy, Uncle
Linus asked me to pass this to you.” Michael took the box over and opened it to see the camouge
material used on Nichs’ outeryer, and a USB drive with the design files for the materials.
Michael seemed to understand it then—Linus was trying to provide him with the camouge materials in
exchange for his forgiveness. Or perhaps he was trying to use the materials as a peace offering toward
the Fletchers or Cethos to ensure the continuous development of Michel Group’s branch in Cethos…
After taking the items, Michael patted Nichs on the head before he ordered, “Go get some rest.”
“Alright. Daddy, Uncle Linus said that you can send me to get fixed at the after-sales service department
in Michel Group’s Bayside City branch in Cethos if there’s anything wrong with me,” Nichs replied.
Michael nodded. Nichs then left and shut the door behind it. After it left, Michael continued staring at
the files in the USB drive. He got more and more surprised with every file he went through. Michel Group
is impressive indeed! With the use of electronic technologies and weapons throughout the years, they
invented something that would definitely steal the first ce in the whole of Northern Europe.
Their presence in this field is shocking! A whileter, Michael phoned Stanley and told him to drop by to
pick something up. Stanley knocked on the front door about ten minutester. Judging by how anxious
he was to go over, it was clear that the Fletcher Family was extremely keen about this!

Michael heaved a sigh of relief after he handed Linus’ information over. I hope everything is over now. I
hope Linus and Phantom Wolf will disappear from Sophia’s life from now onward. As for Fass… if they
are fated to meet as father and daughter, they’d definitely encounter one another sometime in the future.
They still have a lot of opportunities to meet, after all; there’s no need to rush into it as she’s still a child
and doesn’t deserve to carry such great burdens at her age.
Once it had been confirmed that Fass and Cooper were the same person, all of the secrets seemed to
unravel itself gradually.
The mixed-blood girl that Woody brought home in the past was Beyoncé, the daughter of the ex-family
head of Michel Group. Hence, Sophia—like her father—had both the blood of the Michel and Mitchell
Families running in her veins. The Michels were truly akin to arge and dark dragon that had been
hiding on thends of Northern Europe for the past 900 years.
They ced excessive amounts of emphasis on the bloodline of their family, and they utterly rejected the
idea of having their blood mixing with that of others. Back then, Beyoncé made the immediate decision to
cut all ties with the Michels once she decided that she wanted to get married to Woody.
She had to do it as the family’s bloodline was too powerful; if Sophia and Cooper got to know one
another, she’d have to deal with the Michels… which would be messy. Michael, on the other hand, didn’t
have any mother-inw to bother him, so the only person he was afraid of was Cooper. That crazy old
man. I’d be extremely stressed out if I ever get to meet him.
…
The month of May came in the blink of an eye, and the weather was getting warmer. Sophia’s career was
improving along with the rise in thepany’s business; they had developed a few trendy handphone
games and even released a beta testing version of a first-person shooter game that they had been
preparing for a long while. The first-person shooter game was undoubtedly different from the regr
ones made by otherpanies—it was easier to get the hang of this game, and it was very addictive.
The game shot right up to the top of the charts once its beta version was released as it generated huge
responses from the audience.
Stanley had invested a great deal into marketing and promoting the game, and its effects were evident
and immediate. Sophia’s book was released about the same time as the game found sess. In current
times, it wasn’t rare to see a celebrity’s wifeing out to write a book about her romantic rtionship
with some world famous popstar, but Sophia’s book differed in that Taylor barely appeared within the
pages.
She had quite a number of chapters in the book, each talking about a different topic. Some were about
her teen years, how she started primary school at the age of 9, everything she went through when living
under Liam’s roof, the mother she had never met, the grandmother who said that she loved her, as well
as efficient methods of preparing smoked bacon and a self-reflection on how she progressed from a bad
student into one of the top students in school.
Sophia wrote the book while Sarah designed the front cover. Michael stayed up the whole night to finish
the book, and he even counted the number of times he appeared in it—he scarcely saw his own name
there. The whole book had a few hundred thousand words, yet he was only mentioned in less than one-
tenth of it. Even a piece of smoked bacon took up more space in the book than he did.
However, he didn’t mind it as long as it made her happy. Vague descriptions of several people appeared
in some parts of the book, most of them being people that Sophia found to be unforgettable in the past
20 years of her life. Some of these included her beloved grandmother and the principal of Riverdale High
School, whose door she had knocked on when she was bleeding badly, and also her godbrother, who
shared the exact same birthdate as her—he was the one who was the first to have found her when she
got injured and ran out of the school.
Her godbrother’s name was Brooke. It took Michael a while before he finally realized what that name
meant to him—it was the same name that Master Levine had given to Linus when thetter came to
Cethos.
At the end of the book, Brooke’s family called for him to return to his own country, and Sophia’s
reluctance in sending her godbrother off was evident through the passages she wrote. Her godbrother
appeared even more than the smoked bacon did! Michael felt a sour feeling in his chest after he shut the
book. He looked up to see Sophia humming a tune as she fixed the 3D bedroom projector that had
previously been sent back after Linus sent it over. Ever since the incident that urred with Linus,
Michael had sent all his gifts—except Garfield—back to him.
However, Sophiater found out that Linus had left all these things in the basement of Vi No. 2, so she
happily brought all of them back before openly installing all of them into her own ce. After the projector
was installed, she switched it into Arctic mode, and the two of themy on the bed as they stared up at
the northern lights.
To better fit the mood, she lowered the temperature in the room and covered herself with a thick nket.
While shey in her spot, she wondered, What could Linus be doing right now? Could he be staring at
northern lights from his own bed as well?
