Chapter 452
No one expected Cleef to suddenly strike at Sebastian. It was too abrupt.
Artemis was full of worry, while Clara was very happy.
She had always disliked Sebastian because of Artemis. Getting humiliated just now made her even more resentful toward him.
Now that her father attacked Sebastian, it suited her perfectly.
Cleef was the only one in the Strauss family to reach the Divine Realm. Not to mention, his moves were extraordinary, swift as the wind.
Ordinary experts couldn't have reacted in time. However, Sebastian was nothing but.
Although he had lost his memory, his instincts remained. Sebastian merely clenched his fist and punched forward.
Fearing that his spiritual energy might hurt Cleef, he only used his physical strength.
Cleef's body swayed slightly after a dull thud. Sebastian, however, retreated two steps before stabilizing himself. Despite this, Cleef was shocked.
As a divine grandmaster, Cleef felt his arm go numb and his blood churn from Sebastian's punch.
Though he appeared to have the upper hand, he had secretly suffered. But he held back to save himself from humiliation.
"Uncle, please show mercy," Artemis said, worried that Cleef might harm Sebastian. She even stepped in front of him.
"Don't worry, Artemis. I just wanted to test his strength," Cleef replied.
Artemis thought this made sense; if Cleef had wanted to kill Sebastian, he could have done so just now.
"Has your memory returned yet?" Cleef asked.
Sebastian shook his head. He only had occasional fragmented memories, which caused him severe headaches if he tried to recall them.
"So, you can't even remember who you are?" Cleef asked again, eager to uncover Sebastian's identity. Someone so young who nearly matched his own strength had to be a prodigy and should certainly not be unknown.
Sebastian shook his head again.
Cleef smiled and said, "It's fine if you can't remember. Just treat this place as your home from now on. Also, starting today, you're no longer a housekeeper."
"Uncle, we've clarified that the earlier incident wasn't Seamus's fault. Please give him another chance," Artemis pleaded.
She had a kind heart and knew Sebastian had no one to rely on after losing his memory. Without this job, how would he survive?
Cleef smiled and said, "I'm just dismissing him as our housekeeper as I've decided to take him as my disciple." "What? Dad, how can you take him as a disciple? He's just a lackey," Clara protested.
"Shut up! Seamus is not a lackey!" Cleef reprimanded sternly. "From now on, anyone who insults him will be severely punished!"
"Yes, sir!"
The Strauss family held Cleef in absolute authority, and no one dared to disobey him.
Although Clara was unhappy, she clearly had no choice.
Cleef looked at Sebastian and asked, "Would you be willing to accept me as your mentor?"
All the housekeepers, even the collateral disciples, were filled with envy.
It seemed like Sebastian had incredible luck as he managed to catch their mentor's eye.
Becoming Cleef's disciple would elevate his status significantly, even above the collateral disciples. This made them incredibly jealous.
Anyone else would have been ecstatic, but Sebastian frowned. Despite his amnesia, he wasn't foolish and understood the implications of becoming a disciple.
