Strongest Necromancer System Chapter 816: Can We Really Believe This?

Mira and Juliet spun around, and Mira’s brow furrowed in astonishment as she saw a statuesque, beautiful woman with short black hair and piercing black eyes standing outside her establishment! The ground beneath the woman was fractured and splintered, indicating a powerful descent from a great height, but what caught Mira’s immediate attention was the woman’s peculiar attire! This mysterious woman was clad in a complete maid’s uniform! The outfit evoked images straight from a Victorian-era narrative, prompting Mira to glance at Juliet, inquiring if this was another peculiar superhuman.

However, Juliet immediately reassured Mira, stating that this woman bore no resemblance to any superhuman Juliet was familiar with! Juliet was certain she would recall a superhuman who wore a maid’s outfit into combat! The woman who materialized outside began to approach the restaurant but was halted by numerous men in dark uniforms, along with SMD agents who had been positioned nearby. The maid’s gaze darkened, and Juliet’s eyes widened as every single individual present visibly flinched or retreated a step! That singular reaction was a clear testament to the woman’s immense power! The men in black were all high-ranking A to S Class superhumans employed by the government, and the SMD agents were predominantly A and B Class. The fact that they all recoiled from a mere glare signified that the woman’s strength far surpassed theirs!

The woman surveyed the assembled men in black, then finally pointed towards the restaurant and uttered something. One of the men in black promptly nodded and hurried towards the establishment.

Ka-Cha!

A hush fell over everyone inside the restaurant as they awaited the man in black’s report. However, the man in black disregarded the onlookers and addressed Mira with deference.

"Ma’am, the woman outside states she wishes to speak with you. She... she mentioned having a message regarding your son."

Mira’s eyes widened, and she found herself moving behind the counter before she had even fully processed the words! Juliet stood up in stunned surprise, facing the man directly as Mira urged him to quickly usher the maid inside! The man in black nodded and retreated outside once more, and this time, the other men parted, allowing the maid to proceed toward the restaurant at a measured pace. The maid clasped her hands before her as she entered, and upon reaching Mira, she executed a deep, waist-level bow, displaying a level of respect Julian had never witnessed! Mira appeared oblivious to the maid’s graceful movement, stepping closer and imploringly asking.

"My son. You said you have word from my son. What is it? Is Jason okay? Please, tell me my boy is well."

Tears began to well up at the corners of Mira’s eyes, but the maid offered a reassuring smile and a nod, indicating that Jason was indeed fine.

"His Majesty, the prince, is in perfect health, your highness. My name is Stella, and I serve as the Head Maid and caretaker of Prince Jason’s estate. I have arrived today to convey the joyous news that your son has been vindicated, and he is presently en route home as we speak. My purpose here is to diligently prepare for his imminent return."

"!"

A wave of astonishment swept through the entire restaurant upon hearing this proclamation, and many patrons exchanged hushed, disbelieving murmurs! Jason Marc was returning!? This was monumental news, the most significant update any of them had heard in months! Phones were quickly produced to make calls, and people began exiting the restaurant, instructing their escorts to return them to their respective guilds and offices to commence preparations! For the Marc family, Jason’s homecoming signified the reunion with their son, but for the rest of the world, Jason’s return heralded the imminent reappearance of one of Earth’s most formidable powerhouses! This event had the potential to drastically alter the global superhuman landscape, necessitating immediate readiness for the impending shifts!

Meanwhile, Mira seemed frozen in time, her eyes wide, hands covering her open mouth! Stella’s words had plunged Mira into profound shock, and when Juliet reached out to touch Mira’s shoulder, Mira flinched as if struck by electricity! Mira turned to Juliet, her eyes filled with desperation, as if pleading for confirmation that this was not a dream! Juliet offered a gentle smile, and Mira felt the tears finally cascade down as she embraced Juliet in joyful relief.

"He’s coming back! My baby is coming home!"

Stella waited with quiet patience as Mira wept on Juliet’s shoulder, while Juliet offered comforting pats on Mira's back. Janet emerged from the rear, her expression one of bewilderment! Possessing superhuman hearing, Janet had clearly overheard Stella’s announcement, and her face broke into a wide smile as she realized her brother was indeed returning! Janet then addressed the remaining customers in the restaurant, her voice ringing out clearly!

"I am truly sorry, everyone, but this is a family affair, and we must ask you to depart. We apologize for any disturbance this may have caused."

The patrons murmured amongst themselves with understanding upon hearing this. However, no one chose to argue. Instead, they gathered their belongings and started making their way towards their vehicles. Janet considered telling the customers not to bother paying for their meals, but she recognized their immense wealth. Such an offer would likely be seen as an insult. Instead, she observed the stacks of hundred-dollar bills left on the tables and instructed the restaurant staff to clear them all, telling them to consider the money as their tip for the day before heading home. The workers readily agreed, and Janet finally turned her attention to Stella, asking,

"You mentioned Jason is returning soon? Where is he at this moment?"

Stella offered a smile, easily sensing the Mana Essence of the Avaran King emanating from Janet. She understood that this woman was King Richard's daughter and, therefore, Jason's sister. Stella offered a respectful bow to Janet.

"The Prince is expected to arrive within the next few hours, your Highness. He is presently engaged in a meeting with the Council that oversees the Primordial Expanse."

Upon hearing this, Mira let out a small sniffle. She pulled away from Juliet with a grateful smile, wiping her eyes. A quiet laugh escaped Mira as she contemplated Jason's impending arrival. She quickly spoke, her voice filled with excitement,

"Oh, what am I waiting for? We must prepare for his arrival! Janet, please get the stove going! I shall prepare a delicious meal for him! Juliet, you and Francis must stay here! I am certain he would be delighted to see you both again! There is so much to do! We even need to tidy up Jason's house once more!"

A giddy smile spread across Mira's face as she envisioned all the tasks required to welcome her son. She began pacing energetically, her words tumbling out. Janet took Francis's arm and asked for his assistance as they headed towards the kitchen. Nearby, Juliet looked at Stella with a sense of curiosity. She wondered if it was truly wise to place her trust in the words of a stranger. Juliet recognized that Stella possessed a power far exceeding everyone else present. The fact that the guards outside were utterly incapacitated in her presence was undeniable proof of this. Nevertheless, this did not mean they could afford to trust her without question.
