Aslan received the order and quickly got to work. As a monster beast, he was very agile and good at concealing his presence. Philip continued to monitor the children’s practice progress. He could see they were stronger after the potion’s effects, almost on par with the practitioners in this school. It would not be long before they could stand on their own feet, which was indeed worthy of admiration. They were very grateful to Philip, who gave them a second life. If not for his help, they would still be in the orphanage without enough food or clothing. How could they have ever dreamed of becoming a practitioner that everyone yearned to be? Therefore, everyone regarded Philip with the utmost respect and saw this serious man as their father. As Philip taught them how to practice, a little boy approached him timidly, but his eyes were full of longing. Philip stroked his head curiously, wondering what he wanted to say. “Harry, do you want to tell me something?

” Philip said. He was always very gentle to these kids. Harry clenched his fists and mustered his courage. He asked softly, “Can I call you Dad?

” He clutched the hem of his clothes nervously. The others looked at Philip expectantly, hoping that Philip would agree to Harry’s request. Noelle and the others were aware of the children’s thoughts.

The kids longed for a family. Now that Philip had adopted them and was teaching them to read, write, and practice, he was no different from their father. Seeing the expectant looks in these children’s eyes, Philip nodded. He loved children, all the more these kids who had a conscience and the courage to fight for their future. “You must practice hard so that you can protect our home, not just our family but everyone!

” Philip’s words motivated the children very much. They quickly went back to their practice, placing great importance on it. “Harry, don’t worry!

I’ll surpass you soon!

” “Mary, there’s no way you can surpass me.
