The First Heir

Philip sat in the yacht and approached the small island’s port. At this moment, more than a dozen fully-armed Clarke family’s guards were standing guard there.

Philip got off the yacht and just stepped ashore when he was greeted with a bear hug by a stout, dark-skinned man with a smile on his face.

“Welcome back!”

The man, about 30 years old, grinned with a mouthful of white teeth.

Philip smiled and hugged him for a while before letting go. He said, “Buck, it’s been a while…”

Buck Jolly patted Philip on the shoulder with a face full of smiles. He reached out to hammer the other party’s chest and said, “Good on you. You’ve been gone for more than seven years and your body is still in good shape with no signs of falling behind. In a moment, I want to see if you’ve forgotten what I taught you.”

Philip smiled as he followed the man forward and said, “Okay.”

Buck Jolly was the captain of the Clarke family’s sixth guard squad. He could also be considered as Philip’s master before as he was the training captain specially chosen for him by Roger Clarke.
