(Harukin's POV)

After being slapped by Akane, it left a painful red mark on my face.

I tried to convince her many times that it wasn't my fault and explaining to her that the problem was in my system. In the end, she accepted my explanation and forgave me, she also accepted my system friend request on her for us communicate with each other.

Suddenly, a notification screen appeared in front of me.

_________________

Wait! There's more?

Are you kidding me?

I want to return back to my world already.

I'm tired, but this system is trolling me.

I have to finish this faster so that I can go home.

I glanced at Akane and the other children,

"Sorry everyone, I have to go now."

"Eh... Onii-chan, are you going somewhere?" Ako asked sad tone.

"Onii-chan, you should come with us." Taichi tried to convince me.

"Sorry, I can't... Something important came up just now that I have to deal with. But don't worry, I promise that I will come back to you guys someday. If you want to ask something about me, you can ask your big sister Akane, I left something to her that can communicate to me even I'm far away from you guys."

I glanced at Yuu and Mikaela,

"Salty boy, Mika, I going to leave now, please take care of them."

"Who are you calling Salty boy?! I going to do it even you don't ask anything." Salty boy retorted.

"Thank you for helping us escape, Harukin." Mikaela just smiled on me.

I glanced Guren who has a difficult expression,

"Remember what I just said to you."

He looked away from me and didn't say anything,

"I'm going to count that as a 'yes' then." I said.

I looked at Krul,

"We're going now, Krul."

"Hmph!" She hmphed, also looking away from me.

After that, I touched the 'Yes' on my screen.

I looked at everyone and spoke while waving my right hand at them,

"Goodbye everyone, be a good child and I'll be back before you know it."

"Goodbye Onii-chan! Please come back soon!" Ako shouted.

"Onii-chan, bye bye!" Taichi also shouted.

"Goodbye, Harukin!" Akane loudly said.

All of children yelled their goodbye to me except Salty boy just wave his hand at me.

What a Tsundere.

"Someday, I'm gonna surpass you and wipe all the vampires." He mumbled.

Both me and Krul together with her pet, turned into a small light particles and dispersed into the sky.

Everything turned blank.

---

When my consciousness returned, I slowly opened my eyes.

I saw that we're transported into an island in the middle of the ocean,

Where am I right now?

I turned around and looked behind me.

I saw very familiar tower.

It has twisted body and sporadically jutting sides, appeared to be very chaotic and asymmetrical. The bottom and main body of the tower were comprised of overlapping and intertwining lengths of metal tubes which wound together from the ground and straight up into the sky.

Around the main form of the building a twisted staircase wound, rising around the tower and leading to the throne room at the top.

I was amazed on how high this tower made and it's structural design.

But unfortunately, this huge thing was the tower of heaven, also known as the R-System, it is a forbidden Magic Item that has been building by the cult of Dark Mages using the slaves they kidnapped. They want to complete this tower wishing to revive Zeref.

This should the place where Erza is enslaved when she was a child,

Suddenly a notification appeared in front of me.

I touched it and a screen opened,

_________________

So Erza is still in this place.

And this emergency food...

She doesn't even want to help me on my quest.

Well I guess, I teased her to much.

I will just ask for directions.

I turned around and looked at Krul who's staring at small puddle of water on the ground.

"Krul, do you want to come with me to check the tower on the center of this island?" I asked her.

Krul glared at me,

"Ha-ru-kin! You insolent brat! Did you just scribbled on my face?!"

"Ah, I'm sorry, your scared face at that time is really cute so I did it to tease you." I said with cheeky expression.

"You!"

She launched herself on me and tried to attack by scratching me

But, her body stopped moving before her hand touched my body.

"Hey Krul, let's go to that tower and check what's inside." I tried to invite her to go with me while pointing at the tower.

Since, it's pointless to attack me because of my order on her, she calmed down herself and said while yawning,

"Go by yourself, I'm tired, I didn't get enough sleep because of the commotions you created in my city yesterday. Also, I have wash this doodle you putted on my face."

She turned her back on me then she walked away and left me alone here standing.

Then, I shall do this myself.

I started to walk towards the tower.

I arrived not far from the center of the tower,

Seeing several guards riding a flying eyeless monster, they immediately noticed me.

"There's a runaway slave here! Get him!" One of them shouted.

"I'm tired right now and want to take a rest."

I spoke, I pointed my right index finger upwards.

A small miniature of sun appeared, getting bigger and hotter.

I threw the sun towards them,

"Get lost... Cruel Sun!"

"What's that?! Arrrghh!!!"

The words they screamed before they disappeared from my sight. Not a single thing remained at them.

I continued moving forward towards the tower.

All the guards who blocked my way, I defeated them all easily.

Arriving on the top of the valley, I looked around below.

I saw several slaves being bind on their hands by a floating machine following them.

They are holding pickaxe, digging on the ground.

They are also guarded by the cult members with a eyeless monster barking like a dog besides them.

I saw some of slaves who can't even move out of tiredness being tortured by the guard.

As I expected, I really don't like this kind of place.
