Almighty Father System - Chapter 445: Family Outing.
Leo took a shower, and then he came to his room, he found Lily and Snow talking about something in hushed tone. He didn't disturb them, he knew that it was not going to be good for him to meddle with two females. He turned his attention to look at the twins, they were gazing at him. The young man began to tease them and also talk with them while the two questioned him where he went. Leo was happy and told them, "I had to go out for work. Were you two good babies when Baba was away? Did you trouble Ma?"
Elena replied, "Elle was good, Jules was naughty. He would clung to Ma, she would be worried to leave."
Jules turned his tiny head around and said, "You bad, I will not talk to you."
Elena didn't bother with him, she asked, "Baba, yesterday we went out, I saw a big light in the sky, what is that?"
Leo smiled and then he simply began to tell her about the sun and followed up by various questions from the two, "Can you eat it? Does it taste sweet? How is it hanging so high? Wow, are we hanging in empty too?"
One after the other, the questions fired off and Leo answered them all, after an hour, he changed their diapers and then sat down on the bed after putting them down for a nap. Lily climbed up on his back and said, "Baba, you know that cart you made for me?"
Leo nodded while holding her hands, and Lily said, "Well, I was thinking if we could go out and run a few laps around the track. I heard somewhere if you don't train regularly, yours skills will go waste."
The young man smiled and said, "Fine, I will do what I can. When do you want to go?"
Lily replied, "Ummm, how about tomorrow? I have a small vacation."
Leo nodded and said, "Fine, we will go tomorrow."
Lily jumped and then she began to hop around the house while cheering about how Leo had agreed for the track outing. The Extreme Racing team was also testing in the track around the company park. Yes, the whole company park covered an area of five kilometers, and the company had very carefully designed a track that could force the car to the max and also challenge its ability to deal with pressure. The track even had a rain mode.
After Lily left, Leo lay down on the bed and let out a sigh, Snow looked at him and asked, "Was it difficult to handle things this time?"
Leo shook his head and replied, "No, it was not difficult, but the enemy was smart, they tried to set us up, thankfully Alpha handled it and informed us in time."
The young lady nodded and asked, "Have they all been dealt with?"
Leo shook his head and said, "The heads of the family and the higher hierarchy members have been taken out, but they have a lot of people who work under them. The first borns of these elite families are still working for the Morning Star Tower. We need to deal with them, but they are not like their parents when it comes to handling. They are cunning, and they are not going to come out of their covers so easily. I would need to make an appropriate plan when the time comes."
Snow nodded and then asked, "What about taking them out directly?"
Leo shook his head and replied, "It is not going to be that easy, we would need to get close to them if we want to handle them. However, getting close would need some effort."
The young lady nodded and then she lay down next to Leo as she said, "Think about it when you have relaxed completely. For now, rest, you have been working very hard outside."
The young man cuddled her and gradually fell asleep. He only woke up for dinner, and this time while he was sitting on the table, the system said, 'Ping: Host, you have completed the first half of the task and drawn the blood of the enemies. For reward, you will be getting an acceleration card. You can use it on any project and the efficiency will kick up by fifty percent.'
Leo thought and said, 'Use it on the space elevator project.'
The system agreed, and then it said, 'Ping: Your daughter wishes to feel the thrill of racing, but without having a fellow rival on the track, it is just driving. Organize a karting tournament, and train Lily to enter the tournament. Based on her performance, you will be rewarded.'
Leo was surprised but then he understood this logic, although it would be hard and pressurize Lily, this would also teach her about discipline and hard work. She can get a cart because Leo Cardinal is her father, but she will not get to win because of that. It would all depend on her. Thinking about it, he turned to look at Lily who was making faces at Fragrance while the latter did the same, and asked, "Lily, do you want to compete in a go-kart championship?"
Lily froze and so did the rest of the people. They didn't expect Leo to ask such a question. Lily placed her fork down and asked, "What would I need to do?"
Leo replied, "You will need to train, and then you will be participating when you have managed to learn the skills and also your timings match that of an average pro-kart driver. What do you think?"
Lily thought for a bit and said, "Okay, I will train. But how do we fit it in my schedule? I know we have training space in the school but the trainer is for everyone and apart from that, I cannot just give up my piano classes, and art classes."
Leo sighed and said, "One session of karting in the morning and one before you have dinner, the rest would go as normal. The reason is simple, your workout and physical training would be included in the morning one, and diet would be maintained by adjusting the meals. The rest of the training is akin to playing small games with me. As for the trainer, I will get Andy to train you."
Lily was surprised and asked, "Can you not train me by yourself?"
The young man shook his head and replied, "I am too protective of you, if I am unable to scold you, it would not only hold back your progress but also increase the chances of learning. You will not only learn driving the kart but also things like tuning the vehicle, and maintaining it. How to do repairs, the full course. Now tell me again, Do you want to go carting?"
Lily leaned back in the chair with her hands crossed across her chest and she said, "Hmmm, fine, I will agree to it."
Leo nodded and said, "It is settled then."
The young lady nodded and after dinner they returned to their rooms, Leo helped feeding the twins who were now able to sit up with some help. Leo and Snow teased the two kids and which drained their energy and also gave them the exercise that they needed before they fell asleep.
...
The next morning, Leo picked up Lily and they went out for a run. There were still some reporters outside the house when they saw Leo had come out wearing a jogging track suit they were surprised, and they quickly came over to ask him a few questions but they didn't act out, because the young man was a dreadful existence for them. One of the reporter tactfully said, "Good Morning, Lord Cardinal, congratulations on a quick recovery. May I ask you a few questions?"
Leo frowned but then he nodded, and the reporter asked, "Sir, what are your thoughts about what happened in the ocean?"
The young man sighed and replied, "I have only one thought and that is clearly to make the people responsible for this to beg and apologize."
The reporter nodded and another guy asked, "Lord Cardinal, what happened to you that day when you heard that the floating island has been attacked?"
Leo sighed and replied, "I just got very angry and hyperventilated. The doctor put me on bed rest, and I was not allowed watch the news as it would cause me to stress even more."
The reporters were surprised, but they believed in his word. Then Leo said, "I have to get back to my workout, can we talk later? I have not been to working out for a few days and have to catch it up."
The reporters nodded and then Leo ran along with Lily, the little girl matched Leo's rhythm but the young man chuckled and said, "Love, you can take it slow."
The little girl was already sweating and she nodded to slow down. Thankfully Zeenat was following her calmly, and after taking a deep breath, they almost finished the run, when Leo quickly picked her up in his arms and Lily chuckled loudly as Leo lifted her up and then dashed straight at full speed. Lily cheered before they reached home, the two of them took a bath, in the meantime, Snow had finished preparing the stuff that was need for the twins. Since the family was going out, they would go together.
