Chapter 68: LOLA

Expanded Space, it was a technology that Dwarves and Human invented.

It's an area further expanded by mana, runes, and science. This idea was acquired in Dungeons and Portals.

Inside a Portal, there was a space where there were monsters that live, it's called Dungeon, scientists have wondered how this phenomenon occurs.  They searched for data, information, and experiments that they could use.

They tried to make an artificial Dungeon but they failed, their knowledge was not enough to create a space within a space.

However, when the Dwarves arrived, their experiment was completed. 

Dwarves have the ability to make Runes.  One of these runes was the Space Runes that they used to make bags or rings with a portable hole/space.

Because of this, the experiment was a success, and they created an expanded space.

Now, Mikael was in an Expanded Space.  Inside a house, there was another mansion with an area of ​​150 meters.

This was an extraordinary thing, Mikael didn't think that he would experience this. 

"Haha, you look surprised. Actually, all over the Philippines, only 8 people have Expanded Space. I bought it when I was in Singapore."

"....."

Mikael saw a lot that made him silent.  

He couldn't comprehend some of what he saw such as the Beastmen and Elves.

If he wasn’t Hunter and he didn't experience many phenomenons,  he would have a nervous breakdown.

The changes in the world were very surprising.  The most painful was he didn't witness it.

"Six years huh ..."

He couldn't take it, he felt that he wasted six years of his life. The Earth was moving forward while he was sleeping on his bed. 

"Klein, where's Lola? I want to see her."

But even so, he was happy that there were people who are waiting for him.  He's thankful, some people remember him.

"Okay, let's go Kuya. Lola is now old... Please don't be shocked.  She also doesn't want to use anti-aging treatments. So she is in a wheelchair now ..."

Klein paused.

"Thank you, during my absence, you were there for Grandma and Grandpa. Thank you"

"...Yes brother"

Klein was the younger one. His brother slept for many years and he was the only one his family could count on so he became strong to protect them.

He firmly faced the challenges of life.  When her Grandfather said he wanted to rest, Klein's heart ached the most.

They enter a room where there's an old woman. Her eyes were almost blind..... She heard the sounds of steps.

"Klein, my grandson, is that you?"

Mikael stopped when he saw the appearance of her grandma. 

"...Lola ... This is me, Mikael... I got back"

Lola Milagros' eyes were blurred, she could be healed because there were medicines and technology that could fix her eyes.  But she didn't accept it, she wants to be with her husband. 

She extended her arms who were injected with many tubes, Mikael took her hands and cried. 

"Mikael? Finally my grandson. Now that you are here, Klein will not be sad anymore... I can now go with your Lolo Johnny"

As an 86 years old woman, she knew she would die soon.  But it's okay, she had no regrets.  She lived happily for eight decades, she met Johnny and she had good grandchildren.

"Grandma, no... I just came back ..."

His Grandmother whom he last saw walking with Grandpa was now in a wheelchair.  Lola Milagros lost weight and could barely move, her eyes were dimmed and there were tubes in her nose ...

Mikael tears flowed.  He did not know, he didn't know how difficult Grandma was going through.  It hurts him as a grandson, to see his Lola struggling.

Mikael knelt down.  He shed tears like a child, his heart ached when he sees her Grandmother like this.

"Wwaaahhhh Lola"

Mikael released all the pain that he was feeling.

.....

....

...

..

.

Three days passed.

Lola Milagros died.

.....

....

...

..

.

"Klein, what is the highest level right now?"

"692, Jake Raynold. He had the highest level on the planet "

In front of four tombs who had a Tibano surname.  The two siblings were talking.

Mikael needed to keep up with the change.  He wants to catch up with what he lost, he must take all of the time that he wasted.  His job was a Hunter, and he would return as a Hunter.

And in the Hunter world, there was only one thing that matters, strength.  And leveling means becoming stronger.

"I guess I need to start from nothing."

"Kuya, many people were now stronger than you. Being a Hunter will cause much misfortune. Kuya, I know that it's absurd but... Please don't continue. Stop leveling and stay as an ordinary human..."

"No, I need to..... I'm sorry I know that you're worried but, I want to be a Hunter..... Don't bother me for three months, I'll focus on leveling"

Klein sighed and he didn't argue. 

"Okay, Kuya... If you want to level up quickly, then I recommend you to go to Red Portals. The monsters inside there are strong but the leveling is faster. "

"What about you? What are you going to do now? You said you were no longer part of the Redemption?"

Mikael asked. 

"I'm a member of Blue Swallow. I'm a captain now haha"

Klein laughed and touched his beard. 

"Blue Swallow?... Rena?"

Mikael recalled that this was the name of the Guild that Rena Scott created. 

"Haha, that's right. Guild leader is one of the powerful Hunters now. When you see her, you will definitely raise your hair in fear"

"Is that so? Anyway, what is your level?"

Mikael was curious about this. He wanted how strong his brother. 

"678"

"....."

He didn't know what to say. 

He realized that his level was nothing compared to his brother.
